Underworld
"Secondly, there are still more than two months left. The Three Year Pact Third Brother and Nalan Yanran will be coming soon. That battle will probably offend the Misty Cloud Sect. It would be bad if it involved you!" Xiao Yu said softly.
Xiao Ding frowned immediately and said, "I do know that Little Yan has such a Three Year Pact, but if it's just a Three Year Pact, and it's a fair competition, Misty Cloud Sect, as a transcendent force in the Jia Ma Empire, shouldn't make things difficult for us, right?"
Xiao Yu said in a deep voice, "Perhaps, it's just a plan!"
Although that's what they say, Xiao Yu knows that in the original story, Xiao Yan was repeatedly obstructed by Yun Leng. Although they don't have the excuse Yun Leng found now, they will definitely have other excuses. It's probably not an easy thing for them to leave peacefully!
Xiao Li stared at Xiao Yu with a smile and said, "Little Yu, if you only have these two reasons, that's not enough to persuade us to leave here!"
Xiao Yu then changed the subject and asked, "Are eldest brother and second brother willing to live their whole lives with this kind of strength and attitude?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao Li raised an eyebrow slightly.
Xiao Yu shrugged and said, "As the most chaotic region on the continent, the Black Corner Region naturally has its own rules, and these rules apply throughout the entire continent: the survival of the fittest!"
"Although the Black Corner Region is chaotic, it is also a place for training. It is full of bloodshed and violence, and everyone there is full of cunning and conspiracy. I think that is the place where we are best suited to develop!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Ding, who had been standing silently to the side, suddenly brightened up. Grasping the key point, he hurriedly asked, "You mean us?"
Xiao Yu nodded slightly and said, "That's right. I plan to establish my own power in the Black Corner Region. I've already thought of a name for it: Underworld!"
"The Underworld?" Xiao Ding murmured, repeating the name. Xiao Li, standing beside him, exclaimed excitedly, "Great! This name is great! I like it! It sounds much better than the ' Mo Tie Mercenary Group '!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Li was met with a death stare from Xiao Ding, and Xiao Yi Xian, who was standing to the side, covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
Xiao Yu glanced at Xiao Li with a hint of helplessness before continuing, "The establishment and improvement of the Underworld will take a long time. I can take advantage of my time at the Jia Nan Academy to invite some students to join. I hope that in the future, the Underworld's strength will be enough to dominate the entire Northwest Continent, and even become an undeniable force on the entire Dou Qi Continent!"
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were both moved by Xiao Yu's words. They had never thought they had such lofty ideals. When they thought about how they had only established the Mo Tie Mercenary Group in Shi Mo City over the years, they felt a little ashamed.
Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Yu solemnly and said, "After establishing the Desert Iron here over the years, I've become somewhat complacent, and even complacent about some achievements. But now, Little Yu's words have awakened me. Perhaps you're right, we're still young, and we shouldn't stay in this place, living aimlessly. I agree to relocate to the Black Corner Region!"
"Brother!" Although Xiao Li felt somewhat ashamed, he hesitated when he thought about giving up the hard-earned foundation he had built. He was about to say something when Xiao Ding interrupted him.
Xiao Ding looked at Xiao Li and said, "Alright, I've made up my mind. You don't need to say anything more. Besides, we brothers have been separated for years; it's time for us to get together!"
Xiao Li sighed deeply and said, "Alright, since you've made up your mind, brother, I agree!"
Xiao Ding smiled and said, "First, gather all the brothers together. I'll explain to them personally. Those who want to come with us can come together. Those who don't want to, we won't force them. Give each of them one hundred Gold Coins. Don't mistreat them. Let's part on good terms!"
Xiao Li nodded firmly and walked down. Xiao Yi Xian looked at Xiao Yu and said softly, "I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to join the Underworld?"
Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled wryly, "The Underworld is still in the process of being established, so naturally the more people who join, the better. As long as you are willing to come, I will welcome you with open arms!"
Xiao Yi Xian chuckled and said, "You know how to talk, so I'll reluctantly join the Underworld!"
Xiao Ding laughed and said, "Little Yu isn't a lone commander in this Underworld anymore, hahaha!"
As they were chatting and laughing, Hai Bodong sat to one side, sipping hot tea, and said in a low voice, "Since Xiao Yu is preparing to establish his own power, how about I join in the fun?"
These words stunned not only Xiao Ding and Xiao Yi Xian, but even Xiao Yu was slightly lost in thought. However, he quickly recovered and said, "It's excellent that Elder Hai is willing to join, but..."
"But what? The Xiao Yu I know isn't this indecisive!" Hai Bodong frowned.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I was just worried that Elder Hai might feel constrained by these forces, making you a little uncomfortable."
Hai Bodong waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm just an old man, what's this about being comfortable or not? As long as you don't mind!"
"Hahaha, Elder Hai, you're speaking a bit too soon. If you were to release your Five-Star Dou Emperor strength, countless people would be eager to have you as an honorary elder!" Xiao Yu laughed heartily.
However, these words were like a thunderbolt to Xiao Ding and Xiao Yi Xian. They looked at the unassuming old man with suspicion and uncertainty. Xiao Ding quietly approached Xiao Yu and asked, "Little Yu, what you just said about him, that he's Five-Star Dou Emperor?"
Xiao Ding couldn't believe it. This was Dou Emperor, a top-tier expert even in the entire Jia Ma Empire, and yet he was sitting right in front of him, smiling and talking to his younger brother?
Xiao Yi Xian glanced nervously at Hai Bodong, who was sitting there. Xiao Yu nodded at Xiao Ding and said, "That's right, Elder Hai is one of the Ten Great Experts of the Jia Ma Empire!"
Upon hearing Xiao Ding Xiao Yu mention that Elder Hai Ten Great Experts of the Jia Ma Empire, a thought flashed through Xiao Ding's mind, and he stammered, "Elder Hai, Ten Great Experts of the Jia Ma Empire? Could it be the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong?"
Seeing Xiao Ding's surprised expression, Hai Bodong breathed a sigh of relief. This was a normal reaction. Look at Xiao Yu's reaction back then—he even dared to threaten him!
However, it seems that there aren't many oddballs like the Little Fox!
"I didn't expect Elder Hai's name to be so famous, even my older brother knows him!" Xiao Yu said with a grin.
"Nonsense, how could I not know that?" Xiao Ding muttered in a low voice.
Just then, Xiao Li pushed the door open again and walked in. He overheard Xiao Yu and Xiao Ding's conversation and asked, "What are you talking about? What happened to Elder Hai?"
Xiao Ding hurriedly tugged at Xiao Li, signaling him not to say anything more, while Hai Bodong waved his hand and said, "I'm not that scary, just treat me like a normal person!"
Xiao Li was still unaware of what was going on, but seeing Hai Bodong say this, he walked over and patted Hai Bodong on the shoulder in a very casual manner, saying, "Elder Hai, you're so magnanimous!"
This action startled Xiao Ding, who was standing to the side. "No!" Xiao Ding hurriedly tried to stop him, but Xiao Li didn't react as quickly, and the scene suddenly fell silent!
