Since Resistance Was Impossible, He Might as Well Enjoy Whatever He Could

Upon hearing the question, everyone turned to look at him.

The Holy Lord had clearly anticipated this.

"Let's go and see what the Five Symbols Sect's attitude is first. That way, our Holy Land will give them a chance."

"If you agree, stay; if you disagree..."

The Holy Lord glanced in the direction of the Five Symbols Sect:

"Let the Azure Cloud Sect handle it."

Upon hearing this, an elder pondered for a moment and said:

"Since they are a third-rate force, why give them a chance? Even if they stay, they have no value, so why waste our energy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another elder shook his head:

"With rumors spreading like wildfire, if our Holy Land were to act openly again, other Holy Lands or powerful forces would seize the opportunity to criticize us. As for the Azure Cloud Sect, they may not be able to handle this matter well. If the Five Symbols Sect knows its limits, it will naturally submit willingly, saving us some effort."

"What you said is not right either. The strength of the Azure Cloud Sect is definitely not weaker than that of the Five Symbols Sect. Sending some elders to secretly take action would make it easy to destroy the Five Symbols Sect, wouldn't it?"

Everyone has their own opinion.

Overall, it still feels like this approach is a bit too much trouble.

After all, the Five Symbols Sect was nothing in their eyes.

At this moment, the Holy Lord spoke:

"There's no need to discuss it further."

"This matter will proceed as I just stated."

In fact, even he looked down on the Five Symbols Sect.

However, upon examining Luo Zhen's records, it was discovered that he was originally born within the territory of the Five Symbols Sect, and spent many years there.

A genius like Luo Zhen appeared within the sphere of influence of the Five Symbols Sect.

Perhaps the Five Symbols Sect has something unique about it.

Therefore, he decided to go there.

If we're lucky, we might get something else.

As the saying goes, once you've tasted success, you'll want to try it again.

Upon hearing this, no one continued the discussion.

Since the Holy Lord has already made his decision, then we shall listen to the Holy Lord.

Then, the light curtain dissipated.

Yuan Hou and the rest of the Azure Cloud Sect members had not yet left.

When they saw the vanished palace and the astonishingly deep pit below.

A thought flashed through everyone's mind:

"The Cloud Heaven Holy Land has definitely found something amazing!"

At this moment, Yuan Hou came to his senses, bowed, and said:

"Greetings to the Holy Lord and all the seniors of the Holy Land."

"Sect Leader Yuan, you're too kind." The Holy Lord smiled faintly, not wanting to waste any more energy, and went straight to the point:

"Right now, there are some things I'd like to discuss with you. Is it convenient for you here?"

Yuan Hou's heart stirred slightly, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Soon, both sides set up an array on the spot and began to discuss the matter.

There weren't many things, and they were all very straightforward.

But after the discussion, Yuan Hou's expression was not very good.

However, as a sect leader, he was still shrewd and quickly concealed his emotional fluctuations.

Although it is said that if you try to negotiate with a tiger for its skin, you will inevitably get hurt.

However, after the discussions were completed, they ultimately underestimated the ambitions of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

The discussion mainly covered several issues.

First, from now on, the Cloud Heaven Holy Land will establish a cooperative relationship with the Azure Cloud Sect. If the Azure Cloud Sect encounters any trouble, it can seek help from the Holy Land. Conversely, the Azure Cloud Sect will also help the Cloud Heaven Holy Land solve some minor troubles.

Second, the Cloud Heaven Holy Land will send some elders to the Azure Cloud Sect to help the Azure Cloud Sect safeguard its territory and ensure its safety. They will also serve as mentors to younger disciples. Some outstanding younger disciples may have the opportunity to enter the Holy Land for cultivation as disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect, and both sides will jointly nurture them.

III. Resource Access. Azure Cloud Sect disciples and elders who pass the assessment or meet certain conditions can visit the Holy Land to view its collection of cultivation techniques and martial arts skills. In return, the Holy Land can also view the Azure Cloud Sect's collection.

Simply put, what appears to be a win-win situation is actually due to the welcoming attitude of the Azure Cloud Sect.

As for why this is the case...

Just one sentence.

No way.

Whether you like it or not.

The elders of the Holy Land who were standing behind the Holy Lord were not ordinary old men.

Now that things have come to this, although I feel somewhat uncomfortable, I have absolutely no power to resist, so I might as well just give in.

Although it's unequal, there are still some benefits; every little bit helps.

The cooperation talks went very smoothly.

Afterwards, the Holy Lord led Zhou Chang and several other elders towards the direction of the Five Symbols Sect.

"Is the Holy Land preparing to have the Five Symbols Sect... participate in the cooperation?"

Yuan Hou's heart stirred slightly, and he tentatively asked the elder left behind by the Holy Land.

"Yes," the elder replied.

Yuan Hou frowned and said:

"The Five Symbols Sect is quite arrogant; they might not be too willing."

The elder glanced at him, a hint of disdain flashing across his face, and snorted coldly:

"In the face of sufficient strength, arrogance is the most useless trait."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Hou felt a surge of anticipation.

"Five Symbols Sect, Cang Wenyu, you'd better stand up for yourselves."

The Cloud Heaven Holy Land easily destroyed the Mystic One Sect, so dealing with the Five Symbols Sect will be a piece of cake.

After the Five Symbols Sect was destroyed, they annexed the remaining territory.

By then, his Azure Cloud Sect will be one step closer to becoming the true overlord of the Eastern Region.

Right now, the only hope is that the Five Symbols Sect can offend the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

"Master, should we go back now?"

Seeing that many elders of the holy land were leaving one after another, Luo Zhen also spoke up.

The cultivation environment here was really unacceptable to him, and he didn't want to stay here for even a moment longer.

Fang Ling glanced at the former palace site, shook his head, and said:

"Let Elder Gong take you back first; I'll wait here a little longer."

After he finished speaking, he transmitted his voice to an elder not far away.

Luo Zhen nodded, then walked towards Qin Jiuxiao, who was not far away, and said with a grateful expression:

"It truly pains me to see Senior Brother Qin suffer such a calamity."

"I must thank Senior Brother Qin for taking care of me during this time. I'm planning to return to the Holy Land now, would you like to come along? That way, I can have someone to look after me."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiuxiao's gaze immediately turned icy.

How could he not understand the implied meaning in Luo Zhen's words?

At that moment, he spoke in a cold voice:

"No need."

He never went to see Luo Zhen from beginning to end.

Luo Zhen seemed unconcerned, his expression remaining largely unchanged, and he turned and left.

In fact, he really didn't care.

If it weren't for the elders present, he would have even wanted to burst into laughter.

Life is unpredictable.

Who would have thought that Qin Jiuxiao would end up shooting himself in the foot?

This instantly dispelled his previous resentment.

On the contrary, it was thanks to Qin Jiuxiao's interference that he was unable to enter.

Otherwise, judging from Qin Jiuxiao's current weak state, he's not exactly in a good mood.

The flying boat sped through the air.

The Holy Lord and his entourage did not use the flying boat that represented the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

Although it lacked some of the imposing presence, it was much faster.

Before long, the flying boat had left the territory of the Azure Cloud Sect and entered the territory of the Five Symbols Sect.

Just then, the Holy Lord of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, who was sitting quietly on the flying boat, suddenly opened his eyes.

Then, he took out an extremely ancient jade tablet.

He made several special hand seals and struck it down, and the Holy Lord's expression suddenly changed.

There was both surprise and solemnity.

The next moment, he hurriedly stood up, the flying boat suddenly stopped, and at the same time he transmitted his voice to the people around him:

"Return to the Holy Land immediately!"
