Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2630: Swapping Liang Country for Jiang Country, the Star King’s Ominous Premonition! (2)
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
"Great Calamity."
Lu Changsheng’s face showed a few traces of seriousness as he uttered two words.
Then he paused and said with some sighs, "Blessings and misfortunes are intertwined, the great calamity is also a great era."
"Due to certain reasons, I came to this place, sensed an opportunity, and so settled in Great Dream Immortal City to prepare for the great calamity."
"I invite your sect to form an alliance, hoping to jointly face the future crisis of the great calamity."
Although Lu Changsheng knew the saying of ’great calamity, great era’, he was not clear about the details.
So he spoke very vaguely, letting Absolute Sword True Monarch guess for himself.
"Great calamity..."
Absolute Sword True Monarch’s face was serious, and he did not speak.
If before, he had thoughts of forming an alliance with Lu Changsheng and Great Dream Immortal City.Now he had no thoughts of alliance at all.
After all, the so-called alliance is entirely a gamble.
Once drawn into the other’s conflicts, the millennia foundation of Heavenly Sword Sect could be destroyed at any time, falling into endless tribulations.
Now Lu Changsheng pointed out that there is an opportunity in the area of Jiang Country, indicating he won’t leave temporarily.
Absolute Sword True Monarch was quite troubled.
If the opponent was just an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, their Heavenly Sword Sect could still negotiate, or drive him away.
But facing a giant in the Nascent Soul Middle Stage with two Fourth Rank Spirit Pets and a Dao Companion of unknown strength, possibly a Nascent Soul cultivator, their Heavenly Sword Sect was no match.
"Does City Lord Wang and Azure Phoenix True Monarch already become allies?"
Absolute Sword True Monarch pondered for a moment and asked tentatively.
The matter of Yangming True Master and Azure Phoenix True Monarch jointly resisting numerous Nascent Soul cultivators was known throughout the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain.
No one could understand why Yangming True Master was willing to lend such aid.
"Indeed."
Lu Changsheng answered without hesitation.
Though he had little private interaction with Azure Phoenix True Monarch, she was at least the mother of his child, so calling her an ally was not an exaggeration.
However, Absolute Sword True Monarch’s inquiry made it difficult for him to inquire about the whereabouts of Azure Phoenix True Monarch.
Absolute Sword True Monarch still wanted to inquire about the opportunity mentioned by the other party and whether it was related to the core opportunity of the Vast Sand Illusion Realm.
At present, where Azure Phoenix True Monarch is.
But such secret topics were not yet suitable given the current relationship between the two houses, thus he shifted his expression and sincerely said, "It’s an honor for my Heavenly Sword Sect should City Lord Wang wish to form an alliance, but such significant matters require agreement from my senior brother, and I truly cannot make the decision."
Absolute Sword True Monarch directly retracted the previous words agreeing to alliance cooperation, preparing for further discussion.
Lu Changsheng naturally saw Absolute Sword True Monarch’s attitude change, feeling a bit more respectful, guarded step back between them.
This was very normal.
The two parties already lacked trust, and now with such a terrifying trouble attached to him, Heavenly Sword Sect naturally did not want to involve too much.
He did not mind and said calmly, "Today’s candid telling, only to show that I harbor no ill will towards your sect and am willing to befriend."
"The Liangyue War is not an excuse, but indeed the crisis of Starry Sky Sea is pressing, I am stretched thin."
"Once the matters of Starry Sky Sea are resolved, I will naturally lend a hand, and I also have some cooperation and trade I wish to discuss in detail with your sect."
Lu Changsheng’s tone was calm, without the slightest overbearing intention.
"Cooperation? Trade?"
Absolute Sword True Monarch furrowed his brow, his heart filled with vigilance.
In his view, any trade that Lu Changsheng would proactively mention must pertain to their most critical interests.
Lu Changsheng lightly nodded and said, "Not only will I lend a hand in the Liangyue War, but I’m also willing to pacify Liang Country and offer this territory to your sect."
Regarding Liang Country, Lu Changsheng held no fondness.
If not for being held back by the Starry Sky Sea, he would have long gone to Liang Country to flatten Beast God Mountain and annihilate it.
In his plan, he intends to turn Jiang Country into his own domain.
But Lu Ancestor does not want to act inappropriately without cause.
Not to mention needing Heavenly Sword Sect and Yue Country as bastions for Jiang Country, he would not act with sudden aggression.
So Lu Changsheng intends to exchange Liang Country with Heavenly Sword Sect.
Compared to Jiang Country, Liang Country is more prosperous, with multiple Fourth Rank Spirit Veins.
Moreover, according to rumors, the spirit veins in Beast God Mountain are more abundant than those in Heavenly Sword Sect.
"Offer Liang Country to us!?"
Absolute Sword True Monarch was shocked to an extreme degree.
He knew well that there is no free lunch in the world.
Behind such a generous gift, there must be even more astonishing demands!
Absolute Sword True Monarch suppressed the shock in his heart and solemnly said, "Isn’t City Lord Wang too confident?"
"Liang Country has deep foundations, Beast God Mountain, Barebody Sect, and Shura Sect all have Nascent Soul True Lords overseeing them. Beast God Mountain’s Nine Spirits True Monarch is even more powerful, showing signs of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, possessing a Fourth Rank Beast King Spirit Pet!"
"Moreover, according to our Heavenly Sword Sect information, the instigation behind the Liang Country war likely has a hidden hand from elsewhere!"
Regarding the Demonic Seven Sects’ ’Upper Envoy’, Ayoudo and Heavenly Corpse Sect had vague suspicions, and as the overlord of Jiang Country, Heavenly Sword Sect certainly knew.
In these years, Jiang Country and Yue Country have been on the defensive, not daring to ambush the Nascent Soul True Lords of Liang Country due to fear of their mysterious Upper Envoy.
Otherwise, the top-level power of Jiang Country and Yue Country is not weaker than Liang Country.
Speaking of distant matters, apart from Beast God Mountain’s Nine Spirits True Monarch, no one in Liang Country is a match for Xuanjian True Monarch, the unrivaled top-level Sword Cultivator.
As long as measures are set, lure the enemy out, and cut down one or two people, this war could be prematurely stopped.
"Does this Demon Path Envoy have Nascent Soul Late Stage strength?"
Lu Changsheng’s expression remained composed, calmly inquiring.
"Certainly not!"
Absolute Sword True Monarch immediately said, "How could a being of the Nascent Soul Late Stage, even viewed across Southern Wilderness, come to such a remote place."
