Not to mention Blood Clan like Kudolin, even Conservative Faction like Moon Poem Jacqueline Eusius Star Vein were somewhat bewildered.

They had planned to dissuade Moon Breaker Maxwell, Radiance of Holy Light Lancelot, and others, but in the end, the two of them didn't take any action at all. They even restrained other Radical Faction from taking any action, which was truly jaw-dropping.

It felt like a notorious thief who had been robbing and plundering suddenly retiring – unbelievable.

It's no wonder that Blood Clan and others have such unrealistic fantasies; the actions of the Radical Faction are simply somewhat surreal.

The difference is that Jacqueline, Eusius, and others know Maxwell and Lancelot better; these two are by no means good-tempered, and "vindictive" doesn't even begin to describe them.

The fact that they haven't launched an attack suggests they likely haven't endorsed the Conservative Faction ' views; they're probably brewing some earth-shattering plan.

As for what exactly this powerful move was, Jacqueline and Eusius couldn't figure it out for the time being, but in any case, these Blood Clan were definitely going to be in trouble.

The Conservative Faction do not intend to stop this, as long as they do not kill Blood Clan who come to join them and leave some seed for the Blood Clan, it is acceptable.

Ultimately, the Conservative Faction are not Blood Clan; they simply believe that Blood Clan are still useful to the Alliance, as they possess some advanced biotechnology.

For example, the Conservative Faction were particularly eager to obtain the blueprints for the Firmament Class fortress, which was even higher than the Titan Fortress.

In addition, the wealth accumulated by the Blood Clan is also very important to the Crimson Alliance, which is in dire need of rebuilding.

In other words, Conservative Faction are more level-headed.

The one who came to greet Kudolin and the other Blood Clan was Crystal Armor Luowen, Demigod who had fought alongside Lancelot in the Sand Sea Demiplane and belonged to the Conservative Faction faction.

"Luowen Lowen!"

Kudolin quickly stepped forward and extended his palm.

Luowen didn't even glance at him, turning around and coldly tossing out a single sentence, "Come with me!"

The Blood Clan behind Kudolin all showed anger on their faces, but Kudolin calmly withdrew his hand, still smiling, and quickly caught up with Luowen, taking the initiative to start a conversation.

When Kudolin was sent back to the Crimson Alliance by the First Blood Ancestor, he had already made ample mental preparations, swallowing his pride, enduring humiliation, and compromising... In short, he was shameless.

As long as I can stay in the Crimson Alliance.

As time goes by, I'll eventually be able to reintegrate into it.

After all, Blood Clan and humans have been close friends and brothers who have lived together for over a thousand years!

Humans are a species that is good at forgetting. Hatred will fade after a decade or two, and will naturally disappear with the wind after a hundred years.

Alliance General Council Chamber.

The hundred-meter-high dome is engraved with various patterns, forming a comic strip that tells the story of a series of major events that the Crimson Alliance has experienced since its establishment, and naturally, many Blood Clan are among them.

The scroll ends with a shocking scene of the Blood Clan ' betrayal.

Whether by coincidence or not, Kudolin entered and found himself standing directly beneath the treachery symbol. The bright lights cast flickering shadows on his slightly anxious face.

At this moment, the spacious council chamber was already full of people.

At the very top, six seats are arranged side by side.

From left to right, these are the figures of five Pillar of the Nation.

Mechanical Bishop Belotti, Radiance of Holy Light Lancelot, Moon Breaker Maxwell, Star Vein Eusius, Moon Poem Jacqueline.

The seat on the far right belongs to the Alliance Leader Tarlov. As the nominal supreme leader of the Crimson Alliance, he is naturally qualified to be ranked alongside the Pillar of the Nation.

The gazes of the five Peak Demigod simultaneously fell upon Kudolin, and an immense pressure, as if the sky were collapsing, slammed down on his shoulders. The dozen or so Blood Clan elites following behind him were also forced to lie sprawled on the ground in a sorry state under the weight of this gaze.

Kudolin's face turned red, his blood almost freezing. The other Blood Clan elites were even worse off; some rolled their eyes back, and others foamed at the mouth. Strangely, none of them fainted, enduring the various gazes coming from all directions.

Jest, pleasure, mockery, hatred, complexity...

The various high-ranking members of the Alliance who attended the meeting each wore a different expression.

Lancelot sat upright, his inner world subtly encompassing the entire council hall, taking in everyone's reactions, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Sure enough, some people never learn from their mistakes, and they actually showed reluctance towards the Blood Clan.

"Alright, let them get up. Some things can't be rushed," Star Vein Eusius said helplessly via telepathy.

Lancelot and Maxwell exchanged a glance and simultaneously withdrew their oppressive auras.

Kudolin quickly stood up from the ground, forcing a wry smile, but showing no sign of embarrassment or anger; he had certainly mastered the art of thick-skinnedness.

The Blood Clan elites he brought must have been carefully selected; each one of them was shameless. After standing up, they were neither angry nor annoyed, but rather smiled obsequiously and bowed to Lancelot and other Pillar of the Nation, putting on a very respectful posture.

Someone with a weaker will might have softened after seeing what Kudolin and the others did, but Lancelot and Maxwell were clearly not like that; they remained cold-eyed and silent.

Now it was the turn of the Alliance Chief Tarlov to take the stage.

He looked at Kudolin and asked, "I heard you escaped from Planet Twilight?"

"Yes!" Kudolin nodded hurriedly, his voice filled with sorrow, "The Blood Ancestor and the others actually planned to pledge allegiance to the Evil God. After learning this news, I led the elites of my clan who refused to compromise their principles and left Planet Twilight."

"Lying? With so few people, you think Escape the heavily guarded Planet Twilight?" Tarlov asked sternly, his eyes wide with disapproval.

Kudolin quickly explained, "I oversaw the construction of Planet Twilight's defense system, so finding a loophole to escape wouldn't be difficult."

Tarlov chuckled coldly, "Heh, I'll believe you for now, but there's still one question: why should the Alliance take you in?"

"I've brought the original blueprints for the Titan Fortress. With these blueprints, the Alliance will be able to break all the seals on the Titan Fortress, and then..."

As he spoke, Kudolin's voice gradually lowered, because he noticed that the gazes in the council chamber were somewhat strange, and many people even showed mocking expressions.

What happened?

Doesn't the Alliance intend to unlock the Titan Fortress?

Kudolin in a state of panic and hurriedly looked at Tarlov.

The latter gave him a pitying look and said, "The Alliance no longer needs these worthless pieces of paper. We can break the seal on the Titan Fortress ourselves."

"What? Impossible!" Kudolin retorted instinctively. "If the seal on the Titan Fortress was broken, why didn't the Alliance send troops to the Titan Fortress to participate in the Battle of Amethyst Battle?"

"You don't need to worry about that. You just need to understand that the Titan Fortress is no longer a bargaining chip. If you want to rejoin the Alliance, you'll need the blueprints for Firmament Class fortress!" Tarlov finally revealed his true intentions, explaining why the Alliance was willing to meet with Kudolin and his group.

It wasn't because of any thousand-year-old bond; it was purely about naked self-interest.

Kudolin's previously composed expression turned extremely grim. Things had taken completely unexpected turns; the Crimson Alliance had actually cracked the Blood Clan's backup plan at the Titan Fortress.

Judging from Tarlov's and those around him's reactions, it's highly likely they weren't lying to him.

In other words, the Blood Clan have lost a crucial trump card!

The plan was to use the Firmament Class Fortress as a trump card, saving it for last to control the Crimson Alliance. However, the Titan Fortress, this buffer zone, suddenly disappeared. If they directly use the Firmament Class Fortress, how will they secure benefits for the Blood Clan afterwards?

Does this mean that the once high and mighty Blood Clan will be reduced to second-class citizens?

Kudolin, engrossed in intense thought, didn't notice Lancelot slowly rising to his feet and appearing before him in a flash.

A shadow loomed down from the front, completely obscuring Kudolin's body. He suddenly awoke with a start, looked up, and saw Lancelot's expressionless face.

"Holy... Holy Light Lord..." Kudolin subconsciously took a step back, his words faltering, showing just how intense the pressure Lancelot exerted on him was.

Lancelot glanced indifferently at Kudolin, ignored him, and turned away, leaving the Blood Clan elites with only his imposing back.

His gaze slowly swept across the council hall, releasing an unparalleled Haki that permeated the entire enclosed space. Many high-ranking members of the Crimson Alliance lowered their heads, while others raised their heads, staring at Lancelot with fervor. Most of these people were members of the Radical Faction.

Some people, though harboring a slight anger, dared not show it in the slightest. Yet, unwilling to lower their heads under Lancelot's gaze, they could only awkwardly turn their heads away. They themselves didn't think much of this action, but to others, it was full of incongruity.

Jacqueline, Eusius, and Belotti, the three Pillar of the Nation, along with the Alliance Leader Tarlov, exchanged solemn and puzzled glances. They couldn't understand why Lancelot had suddenly stood up, or why he was afraid of this Blood Qi young man. He might have been satisfied with slapping all the Blood Clan to death, but that would have been detrimental to the Alliance's development. At the very least, he should have gotten his hands on the blueprints for the Firmament Class fortress before turning against them.

Lancelot understood the Conservative Faction ' ideas, and he did not dislike the actions of Eusius and others.

Lancelot will never forget who was on the Amethyst Battlefield, prepared to sacrifice themselves to preserve the individual combat strength of the Alliance.

Ultimately, Eusius and I simply disagreed on political views and belonged to different factions. To dislike him for that reason would be a sign of a very low character.

However, despite respecting Eusius, Lancelot was still prepared to act according to his own ideas.

After looking around, Lancelot finally spoke. His first words caused all the Conservative Faction to change color, and the Blood Clan, including Kudolin, turned deathly pale.

"We don't need Blood Clan... we don't need hostile Blood Clan, much less friendly Blood Clan. Mercy is useless. The Alliance must make every traitor tremble with fear and pay the price they deserve. We must trample these remnants of the old era and the meaningless traces they left behind underfoot. Therefore, I refuse to accept Blood Clan back into the Alliance, and I refuse to share a room with them. If the Alliance needs Firmament Class fortress, very well, I will personally go to Planet Twilight to retrieve it. As for them..."

Without turning his head, Lancelot raised his hand and casually waved it. A tremendous force descended, freezing Kudolin disintegrated into tiny particles tinged with golden light.

Having done all this, Lancelot activated Teleportation and vanished from his spot.

at the same time.

Planet Twilight.

With a Thunderclap explosion, all the Space Detection Tower exploded simultaneously, and a vortex of golden light appeared in the sky.

It was as if... the holy sun had descended.
