The two super sects' announcement that they were joining the Heavenly Dao Alliance swept through the venue like a storm, shaking the entire gathering.
Of the seven super sects, two had already joined. Coupled with Nine Mandarin Duck Mountain becoming a subsidiary sect of the Tianli Sect, that accounted for half. The first-rate and second-rate sects that had still been watching and waiting could no longer sit still.
The entire venue boiled over. People declared one after another that they wished to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and the scene instantly became as noisy and chaotic as a marketplace.
"Senior Brother, it seems the Heavenly Dao Alliance truly cannot be stopped!" Celestial Venerable Jian Yue watched the forces constantly rise to their feet and listened to the clamor, his expression grave and troubled. Once the Heavenly Dao Alliance was established, it would be exceedingly disadvantageous to them.
If they did not join, they would be excluded from the mainstream forces. Should trouble arise, the Heavenly Dao Alliance might truly refuse to save them. Moreover, the Myriad Transformations Origin Return Art was the key to great prosperity. If they failed to obtain it, they would soon be surpassed by other sects.
Perhaps before long, they would fall into the ranks of inferior forces.
Lie Jiuyou's gaze was dark, his voice low. "Don't state our position yet. It won't be too late to join in a few days!"
By not speaking up now, they could preserve the last shred of their dignity. Otherwise, if the Tianli Sect made a proposal and they immediately joined, would not all their previous struggles have been meaningless?
Where would their face be? Where would their dignity be?
Behind them, True Monarch Ziji wore a complicated expression and could not help shaking his head inwardly.
What use
