Luring Li Changye
"You say you come from the Profound Realm!!!"
In a main hall of the Great Li Imperial Palace, upon hearing Li Changye reveal his origins, the King Zhennan exclaimed in surprise.
Although he did not know what kind of power the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan was, he knew just how terrifying the Profound Realm was.
Those who can create the Profound Realm must at least be giants among the Gods. This person actually comes from such a terrifying force. This so-called Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan must be an existence far surpassing the Dali Royal Family.
Li Changye was very satisfied with the deep shock in the eyes of the King Zhennan. The more this person respected him, the more he could use him.
"King Zhennan, since you know that Dao Child come from the Profound Realm, you must also know that the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan Dao Child Great Li Dynasty."
"What you just said—that you are nominally the King Zhennan, but secretly the de facto ruler of Dali —presumably doesn't have complete confidence in truly becoming the Lord of Great Li."
"But if you help Dao Child accomplish an important task, Dao Child can make your King Zhennan lineage a vassal force of my Li Clan Ancient Clan, allowing you to firmly sit on the throne of the Lord of Great Li."
Upon hearing Li Changye's promise, the King Zhennan's face lit up with joy, and he excitedly asked, "Dao Child Changye, is this truly true!"
The power capable of establishing the Profound Realm is far beyond the reach of ordinary Gods- level forces like the Great Li Dynasty, and his current situation is not good.
Within the Imperial Capital, the most direct threat comes from the Jiangnan Aristocratic Families. Outside the Imperial Capital, the three King of Different Surname, who wield considerable military power, also pose a serious threat to the court.
If one could climb the social ladder to the high branch of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan, it would be an enormous fortuitous opportunity. If used well, the King Zhennan lineage could probably be passed down for thousands or even tens of thousands of years in the Dali.
Becoming a vassal of such a power is no easy feat. Such a vassal relationship represents the face of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan and its presence in the mortal world.
With such a background, ordinary Gods- level forces would not dare to offend him. Even if his lineage weakens in the future, he can still firmly sit on the throne of the Lord of Great Li because of this relationship.
In other words, as long as the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan continues to prosper, his lineage can continue to be passed down.
Moreover, he did not believe that becoming a vassal of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan would lead to the decline of his King Zhennan lineage!
By climbing the high branch of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan, if there are any outstanding descendants in his lineage, they can also be sent to the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan to learn those profound Mystic Method.
With the profound heritage of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan, these outstanding descendants may very well become Gods or even stronger beings.
The King Zhennan was no fool; he naturally recognized the benefits of becoming a vassal of a powerful force like the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan. He quickly added, "I wonder what important matter Daoist Ba Dao Child Changye has that requires the assistance of my King Zhennan?"
"Please give your orders, Dao Child Changye. My King Zhennan lineage will do everything in its power to help Dao Child Changye accomplish this task."
Satisfied with the Prince of King Zhennan's answer, Li Changye continued, "Actually, it's not a big deal. All I need to do is take down the Sword Sect Dao Child me."
"Sword Sect!!!"
The King Zhennan had thought that the Dao Child Changye was going to discuss something of great importance, but he never expected it to be so simple—just taking down the Sword Sect.
With a surprised look, the King Zhennan asked uncertainly, "Dao Child Changye, is the Sword Sect you mentioned the Sword Sect on Sword Gate Mountain in Shu Province within the Dali territory?"
"That's right!!!"
It's true! The Sword Sect is just a sect with a history of three hundred years. The strongest Sword Sect Master in the entire lineage is only at the 'Dao Master Realm' realm.
Such strength would indeed have placed them among the top existences in the Dali before the Heaven and Earth Cataclysm. However, since the Heaven and Earth Cataclysm began, the Ancestor of various powerful forces have Su Xing one after another. Although the so-called 'Dao Master Realm' realm is considered powerful, it is far from being among the top existences in the Dali.
This so-called important matter is actually so simple! A hint of doubt arose in the heart of the King Zhennan, and he did not immediately agree.
"Dao Child Changye, as far as I know, the Sword Sect has only been passed down for three hundred years, and its strongest member is currently only the Sword Sect Master, who is at the 'Dao Master Realm' realm."
"With your strength, Dao Child, you alone could probably suppress the entire Sword Sect. Why would I need to send troops to destroy the Sword Sect's lineage?"
Becoming a vassal of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan would certainly bring immense benefits, but one must also be alive to enjoy them!
The King Zhennan was not blinded by this incredible fortuitous opportunity. Such important matters are often the most unusual the simpler they seem, and he had to be cautious.
Li Changye was not angered by the King Zhennan's caution. On the contrary, a hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes. Only such a wise person was worthy of being taken under his command.
"That Sword Sect Master is merely a 'Dao Master Realm' realm! King Zhennan, you have quite the arrogance!"
"Even I, the Dao Child, am so wary of someone, yet you show such disdain. This is the first time I've ever seen such an arrogant Dao Child."
Li Changye's disdainful words caused the King Zhennan's expression to change drastically. Recalling how highly Li Changye had praised the Sword Sect Master just now, the King Zhennan was filled with even greater shock.
"Dao Child Changye, just how powerful is that Sword Sect Master that you are so wary of him!"
Li Changye glanced disdainfully at the King Zhennan and said coldly, "Dao Child don't know why you look down on that Sword Sect Master so much, but Dao Child tell you, this Sword Sect Master is an extremely terrifying existence."
"If you underestimate this person like this, you'll likely suffer a great loss in the future."
After a pause, Li Changye continued, "Half a month ago, the elders of my clan and five Ancestor of the Great Li Imperial Family joined forces to attack the Sword Sect, but they were all killed by this person."
"This person's strength is so great that even within the Dali, there might not be a worthy opponent."
The King Zhennan was truly shocked to learn that the Sword Sect Master was so powerful. "But Dao Child Changye, if the Sword Sect Master really as powerful as you say, I'm afraid even the Ancestor of my clan might not be his match."
"If we delay the Dao Child's important matter, we cannot bear the consequences."
Li Changye glanced disdainfully at the King Zhennan and calmly said, "I do not expect Dao Child to deal with the Sword Sect Master. I will handle this person myself."
"To be honest, there is a Great Array within the Sword Sect, and even I, the Dao Child, am not entirely confident that I can escape unscathed from the Sword Sect."
"This time, Dao Child, the Daoist, have come here from the Ancient Clan with insufficient manpower. Among the Sword Sect, there is one person from my Ancient Clan, and I, the Dao Child, must take this person with me."
"This person is crucial to the rise and fall of my Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan. I, the Dao Child, absolutely cannot afford to lose him. Otherwise, do you think that with Dao Child strength, the Sword Sect could truly stop me? Why would Dao Child need a force as insignificant as yours, which doesn't even have the power of Gods!"
Li Changye's words finally convinced the King Zhennan. Although there were dangers involved, they were insignificant compared to the potential benefits.
However, since Li Changye attaches such importance to this matter, there is some room for maneuver.
