Hearing Vice-Alliance Leader Wu recount Alliance Leader Zhang's past, many protectors of the Heng Province Alliance were so frightened that they sucked in a cold breath. Fortunately, they had not attacked just now; otherwise, they would probably already have reported to King Yama's Hall.
"Vice-Alliance Leader Wu, are we really going to abandon the treasure land of the Sword Hiding Hermitage just as the Alliance Leader said...?"
"But there are still outstanding orders for the Sun Moon Divine Flower and Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Milk. If we abandon them, what will we use to fulfill those deals?"
Some protectors raised an extremely serious question.
The reason the Heng Province Alliance valued the Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Milk and Sun Moon Divine Flower so highly was that many forces in the outside world had signed contractual orders with the Heng Province Alliance. The Heng Province Alliance had to complete those transactions at the appointed times, or else it would have to pay astronomical penalties for breach of contract.
The nearest transaction was the deal with the Meng Family of Xiong Province, for which less than two months remained.
Vice-Alliance Leader Wu said coldly, "What the Alliance Leader said was merely polite talk. At the time, the Grand Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder had personally come. If the Alliance Leader had shown no response, he would not have been able to silence the endless criticism of those three elders."
"So the Alliance Leader's words were meant for those three elders to hear. As for what we need to do, we must continue... Notify Shan Province that it can begin its operation."
"Cut off Zhou Xi and Sun Yao's heads and send them to Qing Luo's Sword Hiding Hermitage. Force Qing Luo to submit!"
Vice-Alliance Leader Wu continued to carry out his plan.
