Hosting a Guest, Beheading Them, Taking Them in as Dogs

Although Tai Tan wasn't very bright, he had lived for so many years, which made him much better than the already deceased Xuan Zi.

Regardless of whether he cared about the fate of the Shrek Academy, the Clear Sky Sect, or the Holy Spirit Cult.

At least in the current situation, before the connection between the Divine Realm and Douluo Continent is restored, they absolutely cannot be allowed to be destroyed by the Sun Moon Empire.

Tang San's Millennium Plan absolutely cannot be ruined.

With this in mind, Tai Tan looked at Mu En and Long Xiaoyao and said in a deep voice.

"Although Tang Wei's attitude was very bad, just as he said, the Clear Sky Empire can face the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tool Master Legion alone within its borders."

"Your Shrek Academy's strength is indeed somewhat weak right now. Let the Holy Spirit Cult join you in resisting the Sun Moon Empire's attack on the border of the Star Luo Empire."

Although Tai Tan's words weren't as harsh as Tang Wei's, he conveyed the same meaning.

This attitude made Mu En, Ye Xishui, and Long Xiaoyao's faces turn very gloomy.

Even though Shrek Academy is indeed much weaker than the Clear Sky Sect and the Holy Spirit Cult, Tai Tan and Tang Wei, as allies, should absolutely not adopt this attitude.

However, as if he had suddenly thought of something, Mu En's eyes flickered.

He suddenly realized that this was all done intentionally by Tai Tan and Tang Wei.

They used words to suppress Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult, letting them know that even if the three parties formed an alliance, their status would not be equal.

Among the three forces at the Shrek Academy — the Clear Sky Sect, the Holy Spirit Cult, and the Clear Sky Sect must be the leader.

Once this idea is deeply imprinted in your mind...

Then Clear Sky Sect will definitely have the upper hand.

If they can truly defeat the Sun Moon Empire, the Clear Sky Sect will definitely use this advantage to replace the Sun Moon Empire, turn around and crush Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult, and unify the continent to realize their ambitions.

Shrek Academy is, of course, very familiar with this process of inviting guests, beheading, and taking them in as dogs.

Previously, they used it on others, but now the Clear Sky Sect has made them their target.

However, no matter how unhappy Mu En, the Clear Sky Sect was indeed in a stronger position than them, so he could only endure it in the end.

"Yes, Shrek Academy and the Star Luo Empire do need assistance."

"Our overall strength is far inferior to that of the Sun Moon Empire. If the Sun Moon Empire seizes the opportunity to create a breakthrough, the situation will instantly become extremely difficult."

Mu En paused here, giving Tai Tan and Tang Wei a deep look before continuing.

"However, Tai Tan, as an ally, we must stand shoulder to shoulder against the invasion of the Sun Moon Empire."

"If the Sun Moon Empire attacks Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult first, I hope your Clear Sky Sect will not stand idly by."

"If you only care about the present and your own gains and losses, and give the Sun Moon Empire an opportunity to take advantage of you, then the consequences will be dire!"

Tai Tan shrugged noncommittally, completely ignoring Mu En's words.

After the Heavenly Soul Empire was renamed the Clear Sky Empire, the Tang Family of the Clear Sky Sect actually had a conversation with Niu Tian and Tai Tan.

The Tang Family knew that the two of them did not actually have the surname Tang, but had become the Sect Master and Second Sect Master of their Clear Sky Sect due to some special reasons.

He has always acted as a guardian, protecting the safety of the Clear Sky Sect.

However, the guardian deity also has another meaning, which is that it brings many restrictions to the Clear Sky Sect.

Like one of the Swordholders in The Three-Body, they protected them from chaos but did not receive much respect.

The Tang Family of the Clear Sky Sect had long wanted to break free from the shackles of Niu Tian and Tai Tan.

After the conversation, the Tang Family persuaded Youtian and Tai Tan to make a concession: they would not interfere in any of the Clear Sky Empire's actions.

Now that the Clear Sky Sect has already joined this war that will determine the future of the continent, they will absolutely not allow anyone to interrupt their ambition to unify the continent.

As long as Niu Tian and Tai Tan obediently act as their guardians, the Tang Family will continue to respect them as the Sect Master and Second Sect Master, just as before.

Although Niu Tian and Tai Tan were very annoyed by the Tang Family's attitude, they ultimately did not choose to turn against them.

Not only because they share the same lineage as Tang San, but also because they will be needed in the future.

However, since they had already agreed to the other party's conditions, Tai Tan naturally wouldn't interfere in the Clear Sky Empire's decision-making.

Tang Wei was very satisfied with Tai Tan's delegation of authority, and immediately looked at Mu En and nodded.

"Rest assured, our Clear Sky Empire knows what's important and would never scheme against our allies behind their backs!"

"We, the people of the Clear Sky Sect, are not like those Evil Soul Master who have no morals or bottom line!"

Damn it!

Long Xiaoyao's face twitched slightly.

Now, not only was Ye Xishui annoyed by Tang Wei's attitude, but even he was finding it hard to stand.

By repeatedly humiliating them to their faces, does the Clear Sky Sect think the Holy Spirit Cult Sect can't survive without them?

In Long Xiaoyao's view, at worst they could just abandon everything in the Holy Spirit Cult, and he and Ye Xishui could still live a good life wandering the world.

On the other hand, isn't their Clear Sky Sect the one that can't afford to lose in this war?

Long Xiaoyao stopped Ye Xishui from saying what she was about to say, and instead stepped forward to look at Tang Wei and said in a deep voice.

"If the Clear Sky Sect does not wish to maintain this alliance, then our Holy Spirit Cult is not concerned about withdrawing."

"Anyway, for us, both the Dou Ling Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult are things we can abandon at any time."

"Even if we lose this war to the Sun Moon Empire, Xi Shui and I will still be able to live well. What about your Clear Sky Sect?"

Tang Wei's expression changed; he truly hadn't expected Long Xiaoyao to be so decisive in tearing off the pretense of civility.

Just as Mu En had suspected, he had been suppressing Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult from the very beginning, constantly belittling their strength and status in his words and actions.

They were trying to use this method to get Mu En, Ye Xishui, Long Xiaoyao, and others used to the Clear Sky Sect being the most respected in this alliance.

Tang Wei had no intention of breaking the alliance.

After all, it's uncertain whether Niu Tian and Tai Tan will still help them.

With the strength possessed by the Clear Sky Sect, it is absolutely impossible for them to defeat the Sun Moon Empire alone.

Long Xiaoyao's words put Tang Wei in a difficult position, causing Tang Wei's expression to change repeatedly, unsure whether to retreat or advance.

Fortunately, the old fox Mu En was there. Although he disliked Tang Wei, he had no choice but to offer Tang Wei a way out for the sake of the Shrek Academy's future.

"Alright, Brother Long, I believe Elder Tang Wei didn't mean that either."

"The Sun Moon Empire's army has already set off. The most important thing now is to return and prepare for battle."
