Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1260 - 546: New Alliance Plan

His gaze swept over everyone. "As for command authority, we can emulate the first East Sea Alliance from years ago, establishing the position of Alliance Hierarch, elected from each power to make joint decisions."

Feiyun Master stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "The proposal by Vice Sect Leader Li is indeed enticing, but the grudges among the various forces have been longstanding. To have them abandon past grievances might require a catalyst."

"That’s up to you all! Not everything should depend on our ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’!"

Li Yunjing, upon hearing this, had a cunning glint in his eyes.

He had already promised many things, one could say he had reached his limits.

You must know these promises require deliberation by the sect’s higher-ups. If it weren’t for urgent circumstances, he wouldn’t have easily spoken of them.

Of course, in Li Yunjing’s view, this matter is not troublesome.

Once he returns to the sect and convenes a senior meeting, whether it’s the Sect Leader Venerable or the Peak Masters and Hall Masters, they will agree with his decision.

After all, the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ is targeting the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’, and in a situation unknown to the various forces around the East Sea, took one for the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’.

Now, establishing the alliance, with the East Sea local forces providing the manpower and the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ providing the funds, letting them fight to the death with the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’, it certainly seems like a worthwhile thing.

Based on this single point, it would save the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ at least a hundred thousand troops and the forces of dozens of Supreme Elders and hundreds of Golden Core Realm Elders.

One must know, when the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ went to war with the various forces, the only time such a price was paid was during the sweep of the ’Transverse Mountain Range’.

At other times, when would they be willing to pay such a price?

"Vice Sect Leader Li’s planning truly opened my eyes to new insights!"

Feiyun Master finally relaxed his tense expression and laughed heartily, "Come, let’s put aside the celestial matters for now and savor the specialty spiritual food of our ’Feiyun Island’!"

A soup concocted from millennia-old Profound Ice Fish steamed with golden mist, emerald-colored spiritual shrimp still seemed to jump on the platter, and a plate of roast meat sizzled with oil, the aroma mixed with threads of fruity scent.

"This roast meat actually incorporates wood spiritual materials and retains such tenderness; the spirit chef of ’Feiyun Sect’ indeed lives up to the reputation."

Li Yunjing picked up a piece of glistening roast meat, and upon entering his mouth, the meat turned to warm spiritual power flowing through his limbs, eliciting admiration.

The two conversed, going from magical treasure secrets to anecdotes and odd stories from various places.

The atmosphere became increasingly congenial, during which Wen Bin even approached to toast Li Yunjing, without any sense of estrangement, but rather chatting and laughing with ease.

This scene was observed by the other elders, each with thoughts in their minds.

Even Feiyun Master slightly nodded, greatly satisfied with Wen Bin’s performance.

Wen Bin becoming Li Yunjing’s friend was too advantageous for the ’Feiyun Sect’.

With the sway of emotions, should ’Feiyun Sect’s legacy fall into Wen Bin’s hands, wouldn’t Li Yunjing care for it slightly?

And with special care from the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’, the status of the ’Feiyun Sect’ in the East Sea would be further solidified!

After three drinks, Feiyun Master gestured for the maid to clear the remnants, personally pouring the last cup of cloud mist tea for Li Yunjing, "Being far from home, Vice Sect Leader Li should stay at ’Feiyun Pavilion’ tonight, where a Spirit Gathering Array is arranged to help restore your energy."

His gaze swept across the side hall, "Those who accompany you can also rest at the guest courtyard, and discussing the alliance details tomorrow is not too late."

"Master’s kindness is heartily accepted."

Li Yunjing put down the tea cup, stood up, cupped his hands in gratitude, and laughed, "But ’Star Moon Trading Company’ still has some affairs I need to personally attend to, so I’ll reside there; there’s no need to trouble your sect."

"Vice Sect Leader Li has considered thoroughly!"

Feiyun Master was slightly taken aback, then applauded and laughed with sly eyes, "But is there anything Fellow Daoist Li needs help with? I’ll arrange someone to do it!"

"Nothing much! Just relocating some people back to the sect for other arrangements!"

Li Yunjing looked at Feiyun Master with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, openly stating his intention.

He feared any slight concealment might cause the ’Feiyun Sect’ unnecessary misunderstandings, mistakenly thinking he was boasting while actually planning a retreat.

That would not be a beneficial sign!

"Oh?"

Indeed, Li Yunjing’s words prompted the ’Feiyun Sect’ elders in the hall to quickly consider the deeper significance of Li Yunjing’s actions.

Feiyun Master glanced at Wen Bin, his gaze full of implication.

Wen Bin understood, and smiled, "Brother Li, what business requires mobilizing personnel?"

"Haha! I’m going to hold a grand wedding, these are my good brothers, who’ve shared life and death with me for years; on such a joyous occasion, they can’t be left here!"

Li Yunjing laughed in response.

"Wow..."

Upon hearing this, everyone realized Li Yunjing was getting married!

But the next moment, everyone’s expressions showed some discomfort!

If they hadn’t been told, they could have pretended not to know and skipped presenting gifts!

Now, with this, ’Feiyun Sect’ surely must prepare a grand gift!

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Li!"

"Best wishes, Fellow Daoist Li!"

...

The hall first fell into a brief silence, then successive voices of congratulations arose.

"Turns out the Vice Sect Leader Li is celebrating a joyous union, how could such good news not be disclosed earlier!"

Feiyun Master was the first to rise, his eyes filled with smiles, "Our ’Feiyun Sect’ must prepare a generous gift to express our sentiments!"

He raised his hand and a green light flew from the rear hall, flashed on the table, and a Jade Scroll engraved with flowing cloud patterns appeared out of thin air.

"This is our sect’s treasured ’Nine Heavens Flowing Cloud Sword Technique’, although not a sect’s supreme treasure, it can allow Golden Core cultivators to comprehend a few aspects of Space Law; I hope Vice Sect Leader Li won’t find it meager."

Without waiting for Li Yunjing to speak, Feiyun Master took out a Jade Box from his ’Storage Ring’.
