Watching the tangled, hard-to-explain history between the two of them, even Yao Wan could not help falling silent for a moment.
"Fine."
"But I am still rather curious. Why did the Mystic Empress specifically recruit the two of us?"
Lord Qingcheng asked.
"When have you ever seen rats come one at a time? Of course they come in packs."
Yao Wan said, somewhat speechless. With that, she lowered her head and looked at the Maha Alliance Master.
"Since he is the so-called alliance master, then anyone can figure out that the Maha Ancient Clan's preparations this time could not possibly consist of only the three of you."
"Never mind how many outside reinforcements there are. Even within the Maha Ancient Clan, they couldn't have handed everything over to you to handle, could they?"
Yao Wan looked at the Maha Alliance Master and gave a cold laugh.
"But there's no need to have you confirm it either. With the strength of your Divine Soul, if I really wanted to know something, how could you possibly resist?"
As Yao Wan's words fell, the Fire Spirit Clan Leader spoke faintly. "Among this generation of the Maha Ancient Clan, the outstanding ones are Maha Tian and Maha You. Maha Tian sits in command of the Maha Ancient Clan, so it is unlikely he would make a move. Maha You is Maha Tian's close kin, and even more his claw. The Maha Alliance is also a subordinate force of the Maha Ancient Clan. Perhaps this person is the one stirring trouble from within."
"Maha You?"
Yao Wan murmured, vaguely feeling that the name was somewhat familiar, but she truly had no real impression of it.
"There are also some unwritten rules among Heaven Supremes. Saint Grade Experts will not easily step onto the field either.
