South Prefecture, East Mountain Valley.

As the leading force in the Jianghu of South Prefecture, with Bi You Palace living in seclusion, it was almost equivalent to the leader of the entire South Prefecture Jianghu, holding a very high position.

Its ambition was also equally great. As early as after the Battle of Liangshan, when the situation under heaven was changing rapidly, Tian Wenjing, the Valley Master of East Mountain Valley, already had the ambition to make a name for himself in this chaotic world.

After Chen Yuan assassinated the monarch in Zijin Mountain, shocking the world, Tian Wenjing also launched a major operation in South Prefecture, secretly forming alliances with other Jianghu forces.

He also became the recognized Martial Arts Alliance Leader of the South Prefecture Jianghu.

He began to confront Nangong Lie, the Prince of Zhennan, but although Tian Wenjing had gathered a lot of strength around him, he was not actually taken seriously by Nangong Lie.

A heap of loose sand that would scatter at the first impact.

How could it stop the Zhennan Army with its complete armor and equipment?

Moreover, although Tian Wenjing was the Martial Arts Alliance Leader of South Prefecture and the leader of the Jianghu, he actually only gained half of the power, with the remaining half openly following Nangong Lie.

Just as Wei Jinfeng, the Prince of Beiliang, had great prestige in Liang Prefecture, Nangong Lie had been deeply rooted in South Prefecture for decades and had not been idle. He not only controlled the official power, but also had great prestige in the Jianghu.

Having defended the Central Plains human race for more than two hundred years, although he had some flaws, they did not overshadow his virtues. Nangong Lie still possessed immense prestige in the South Prefecture Jianghu.

For this reason, Nangong Lie had never regarded Tian Wenjing as an opponent, but only as a pawn, a tool to lure Chen Yuan into a trap.

Inside East Mountain Valley.

The atmosphere was peaceful, and every disciple's face was filled with smiles. The strength of the sect was also their glory. Being the Alliance Leader of their South Prefecture Jianghu would also give them more confidence than ordinary people when they traveled the Jianghu in the future.

Many disciples were whispering and pointing at the main hall of the sect, with voices constantly coming from the crowd.

"Tsk... Once the Valley Master completely subjugates those Jianghu forces today, perhaps our Valley Master will be able to declare himself a king and establish a kingdom. Our East Mountain Valley will then become the state religion."

"Yes, yes."

"Hehe, fortunately, my father sent me to East Mountain Valley last year. If it were this year, hehe... I don't know how many times more difficult it would be?" A slightly plump young man looked extremely happy.

"You've got a great bargain."

"That's right, that's right. Your Wu family usually can't reach our East Mountain Valley. If it weren't for the Valley Master's grace, your Wu family, hehe... just wait."

"You're joking, haha..."

"Wu Fatty, how much stuff did your father tribute to the sect this year?" A female disciple with superior looks asked curiously.

"This... Senior Sister, I don't know."

"Hypocritical..."

"That's right, that's right..."

"Hey, everyone, don't be angry. How about this, I'll treat you tonight. A few days ago, my father brought back a demon beast from Southern Frontier. Let's try the taste."

"Forget it, demon beast meat is not tasty."

"That's right."

"Add more ingredients, chop it into minced meat. This stuff is very beneficial to us cultivators of the Lower Three Realms. It's a good opportunity to celebrate the beginning of the prosperity of our East Mountain Valley. How about... we make dumplings together tonight?"

"Don't be disgusting..."

Inside the main hall of East Mountain Valley.

Seats were arranged in an orderly manner, with dozens of people sitting inside the hall, each with a cup of spiritual tea emitting heat. The entire hall was filled with spiritual energy.

These people were dressed luxuriously and had extraordinary momentum.

The weakest had at least Profound Connection cultivation, and the strongest had even reached the Yang God level. As for their identities, they were the Jianghu forces of South Prefecture that were aligned with East Mountain Valley.

Although not all of them, there was still a small half, each with inherited family businesses and sects. On weekdays, they were all in high positions of authority, and their words carried great weight.

But at this moment, these people did not dare to make loud noises, only daring to whisper and discuss.

The reason was that the main character had not yet arrived.

After about a hundred breaths, a powerful aura instantly enveloped the entire hall. Everyone present froze and quickly stood up.

And at the entrance of the hall, a figure appeared.

The man had an insidious face, a hooked nose, and light eyebrows that looked more like faint marks. He had a head of black hair, wore a dark golden spirit robe, and had a ferocious beast embroidered on his chest.

His appearance in the hall caused a stir. He walked step by step from the entrance of the hall up the steps. With each step, the people on the left and right sides instinctively lowered their bodies, showing their obedience.

The insidious man walked onto the high platform, turned around, and looked down at everyone in the hall.

As if agreed upon, everyone bowed in unison and said:

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"

"Greetings..."

The shouts were loud and thunderous.

The insidious man curled his lips into a smile, nodded slightly, and said:

"Please be seated."

After saying that, he directly sat down on the main seat in a domineering manner.

As for his identity, he was none other than Tian Wenjing, the Valley Master of East Mountain Valley, the Martial Arts Alliance Leader of South Prefecture Jianghu, and the No-Eyebrow True Lord ranked twenty-third on the Heavenly Ranking!

After Tian Wenjing spoke, everyone sat down sparsely.

"I wonder why the Alliance Leader has summoned us here today?" As soon as everyone was seated, the main event began. A sect leader who was very close to East Mountain Valley opened his mouth as if he were a comic foil.

"Today, I have summoned everyone here because of the recent situation in the world. Since Chen Yuan declared himself king in Shu Prefecture, all the forces in the world have proclaimed themselves kings, intending to dominate the world.

Although South Prefecture is located in the southern border, how can our South Prefecture Jianghu be absent from such a grand scene? Today, I have invited all fellow Daoists here for this reason."

Tian Wenjing said in a deep voice.

"This... Could it be that the Alliance Leader also wants to become a king?"

"Yes, the Alliance Leader might as well speak frankly."

Several voices rang out.

"Our South Prefecture Jianghu knows its own limitations. Taking over the world is not enough, so becoming a king is out of the question." Tian Wenjing waved his hand, indicating his refusal.

"Then what does the Alliance Leader mean?"

Another Yang God True Lord then asked.

He was the Vice Alliance Leader, ranking below Tian Wenjing. It was precisely because of his strong assistance that East Mountain Valley was able to quickly win over the hearts of the people in a short period of time.

"Our South Prefecture Jianghu has no intention of becoming a king, but we also want to be independent, free from any restraint, and occupy a territory. Only in this way can we obtain true freedom."

Tian Wenjing replied.

"Oh?"

"The Alliance Leader might as well speak frankly."

"Yes, yes..."

"Alright, then I, Tian, ​​will speak frankly. I have been thinking about it these days and feel that although our South Prefecture Jianghu Alliance is a powerful force, it is like a heap of loose sand.

If we encounter a strong enemy, we will only collapse at the first impact. This is the path to destruction. Now, the world is in chaos. Even if we don't attack others, they will see our South Prefecture Martial Arts Alliance as weak and bully us.

If we don't want this to happen, we only have one path to take."

"May I ask the Alliance Leader, what path is that?"

"To unite completely!"

Tian Wenjing looked down at everyone with a solemn expression, saying each word distinctly.

"This..."

"Hiss..."

"What is complete unity?"

"Taking my East Mountain Valley as the base, completely disperse and let all our power gather at one point. Each sect and faction will transfer all Grandmasters above the Dan Realm to form a South Prefecture Martial Arts Alliance Enforcement Hall.

All Real Men and True Lords above the Transformation Yang Realm will unite to form a Martial Arts Alliance Elders Council, and choose a place to become a brand new force.

All young disciples of the Lower Three Realms will be cultivated with all our strength by the Martial Arts Alliance based on their talents.

In this way, we can be worry-free. In the future, it is even possible to take the opportunity to develop our strength during the chaos of the world. In the future, everyone may have the opportunity to stand against the world."

"Is this... somewhat inappropriate?"

"Yes, is this somewhat too hasty?"

Everyone kept raising questions.

Transferring all the top powers and young disciples of the sect was almost equivalent to cutting off the inheritance of their respective sects. Having once been called sects and ancestors, they would only be subservient to others in the future.

They were naturally unwilling to agree to something that was not beneficial to them.

"I can even give up East Mountain Valley, so can't you give up some foundations? If it is a heap of loose sand, it may only be broken one by one in the future.

Only by being united can we truly win.

Everyone has families and businesses, haven't you heard that the Prince of Yan, Chen Yuan, specializes in selecting aristocratic families and sects to expand resources? Are you keeping your family assets for Chen Yuan or Nangong Lie?"

Tian Wenjing's rhetorical question made everyone present fall into deep thought.

"May I ask the Alliance Leader, if the Elders Council is established, who should we take as the leader? Is there a process to follow?"

"Yes."

"Hehe... I imagine, this Elders Council..." Tian Wenjing smiled faintly, preparing to talk about his thoughts and preparations over the past few days.

Who knew, a loud shout directly resounded between heaven and earth.

......

......

Let's rewind the time to half a quarter of an hour ago. About ten miles outside East Mountain Valley, streams of black were quietly and swiftly encircling the East Mountain Valley sect under the cover of experts.

Chen Yuan, wearing a gilt armor, stood in the void with his hands behind his back. Standing beside him were two figures, one was Chen Peilu, the brave warrior who charged for love that he had saved in South Prefecture.

The other was Zhu Huai, the bald-headed man who failed to show off in the Shu Prefecture Alliance and was suppressed instead!

"This time is the time for you to take revenge."

Chen Yuan pointed to the vast valley in front and said lightly.

After Bi You Palace decided to submit to Chen Yuan, he secretly made a plan and left Tongtian Mountain, joining the main force that had previously entered South Prefecture.

Now, Jiang He's troops and the elites of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were encircling from the left, and Chu Changfeng was leading a group of elite soldiers, entering from the right.

East Mountain Valley's detection was powerful, but with early preparation and the presence of two Yang God True Lords to cover the movements, even though they were already close to the sect, they were still undetected.

"Your subordinate thanks the Lord!"

Chen Peilu knelt on one knee facing Chen Yuan with an excited expression.

"Your subordinate thanks the Lord!"

Compared to Chen Peilu, Zhu Huai was more reserved. After all, he had now stepped into the Yang God Realm and was a martial arts expert at the True Lord level.

He needed some reserve.

He glanced at Chen Peilu beside him, a sneer rising from the corner of his mouth. He had learned about his origins from Chen Yuan, having painstakingly and wholeheartedly supported a woman.

As a result, he was tricked by the woman and even chased after.

If he hadn't happened to be encountered by Chen Yuan, he would not have escaped death. He was simply a waste.

However, although his cultivation and strength were powerful, he did not dare to despise Chen Peilu in front of Chen Yuan. After all, the other subordinate was much more obedient than him.

He was almost completely loyal to Chen Yuan, regarding him as his benefactor.

In many of the house-raiding and family-exterminating actions in Shu Prefecture, he had performed very well. It was as if he had become a different person after experiencing that betrayal.

Chen Yuan had also repeatedly praised him publicly.

Now, he had even risen to the position of commander in the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Chen Yuan had also promised him that he would do everything in his power to help him break through to the Transformation Yang Realm.

As long as he showed loyalty, he could get everything he wanted.

Chen Peilu also vividly interpreted all of this, helping to pull out many of the secret agents of the Jianghu forces along the way into South Prefecture.

If it weren't for him, it would have been impossible to keep Chen Yuan's entry into South Prefecture a secret.

Therefore, there was still some superficial courtesy.

"Which of you two is willing to shout a scolding?"

"Your subordinate is willing!"

"Your subordinate is willing!"

The two said at the same time.

They both knew that the reason Chen Yuan had brought nearly 100,000 troops into South Prefecture this time was primarily to let the newly recruited recruits see blood and gain experience.

He would not actually take action.

So, this was an opportunity to shine.

Chen Peilu wanted to, and Zhu Huai also wanted to!

He was different from others. Others had actively attached themselves to Chen Yuan, while he had been beaten into submission. His loyalty was not yet fully confirmed. Even though he had the strength of a Yang God, his actual power in Shu Prefecture was not very great. He was more like a guest elder, so he urgently needed to prove himself.

And making Chen Yuan satisfied was the best proof.

Chen Yuan looked at the two, paused on them for a moment, and said lightly:

"Peilu's cultivation is insufficient, so he should rest for a while. When East Mountain Valley is conquered, you will have your chance for revenge. As for now, Zhu Huai will go.

It's also a good opportunity to express the resentment in your heart over the years."

After Chen Yuan finished instructing, a hint of loneliness flashed across Chen Peilu's face, while Zhu Huai was beaming with joy and immediately said in a deep voice:

"Your subordinate obeys!"

After the words fell, he quickly crossed several miles and arrived in front of the gate of East Mountain Valley, a thick killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Thinking of how Tian Wenjing had chased him, leaving him with no way to go to heaven or earth, a well-known figure in the Shu Prefecture Jianghu had to be reduced to a small sect, hiding for decades.

He didn't dare to show his face in the open at all, and could only suppress his hatred in his heart.

Now, he finally had a chance to take revenge.

He also wanted Tian Wenjing to taste the despair of having no way to go to heaven or earth!

He wanted to personally destroy East Mountain Valley, destroying his centuries of foundation before his eyes, making him regret not abandoning everything to chase him!

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Huai clenched his fists, his eyes narrowed, looking at East Mountain Valley in front, and shouted sharply:

"Tian Wenjing, I f*ck your mother!"
