System's Super Sect Chapter 1034 959: Internal Troubles Resolved, Birth of the Heaven and Earth Alliance!

Where are we?

This is the headquarters of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

They were supposed to be the hosts!

But now, it appears they have been relegated to the position of guests.

No, not even guests anymore.

Wen Ping's cold gaze fixed upon the silent members of the Hundred Sects Alliance, who dared not utter a single word.

Because what Wen Ping demanded was a proper attitude.

If the vanquished did not exhibit the demeanor of submission, then their continued existence was unwarranted.

A deathly hush descended upon the hall.

The individuals from the Hundred Sects Alliance kept their heads bowed, intimidated by Wen Ping's piercing and chilling stare.

Observing this, Chen Xie delivered a stern pronouncement: "You have already been defeated!"

Upon hearing Chen Xie's words, the seven Silver Level Chiefs, who had been promoted by the Heaven Concealing Tower, wore grim expressions and exchanged glances, appearing to contemplate a last, futile resistance.

After a few tense moments, the seven bowed in unison.

They capitulated.

Their defeat was undeniable.

And with defeat came the obligation to possess the attitude of the defeated.

"We willingly pledge allegiance to the Immortal Sect."

"As do I."

The seven voices spoke in succession.

With the core figures, the seven Silver Level Chiefs, having voiced their assent, the leaders of the Five-star Giant Influences were left with no alternative but to follow suit.

The tide had turned irrevocably; they were compelled to comply!

Despite the reluctance churning within, a significant number exhaled a collective sigh of relief.

Not everyone had desired this conflict.

Their involvement was merely a consequence of the prevailing circumstances; opting out would have led to their marginalization.

Thus, with the conclusion of the affair, a sense of ease washed over them.

Chen Xie's demeanor softened considerably upon witnessing this display of submission, yet he admonished them with tempered anger, "Your collusion with external forces beyond Heaven and Earth Lake has been noted. The Sect Leader's magnanimity in sparing your lives is a gesture of his benevolence; do not mistake it for weakness or become ungrateful."

Having delivered this statement, Chen Xie stepped aside, his part concluded.

Those sentiments that the Sect Leader preferred not to voice, he would articulate!

Once these words were spoken, it was time for the Sect Leader to resume the discourse.

"For the future prosperity of Heaven and Earth Lake, effective immediately, the Hundred Sects Alliance and the Loose Cultivator Post shall be dissolved concurrently." Wen Ping's declaration stunned everyone present.

Even the members of the Loose Cultivator Post were taken aback by the news.

Dissolution?

A wave of relief washed over the Hundred Sects Alliance.

This outcome, in fact, had been anticipated.

It represented the most favorable resolution they could have hoped for.

Before any murmurs of dissent could arise, Wen Ping continued, "Following this dissolution, a new entity will be established – the Heaven and Earth Alliance. The name 'Heaven and Earth' is drawn from Heaven and Earth Lake itself, and the significance of 'Alliance' should require no further explanation from this Sect Leader, should it? From this day forward, there will be no more Loose Cultivator Post, no more Hundred Sects Alliance. There shall exist only the Heaven and Earth Alliance!"

The pronouncement had barely faded.

Pei Wu immediately dropped to one knee!

With clear and resonant conviction, she declared:

"I, Pei Wu, pledge my support to Sect Leader Wen as the Alliance Leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance!"

Her swift action astonished the members of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

Once the realization dawned upon the others from the Loose Cultivator Post, they too promptly knelt on one knee.

Though doubts had flickered in their minds moments before, they were now entirely vanquished.

The Loose Cultivator Post was no more.

However, in its place, the Heaven and Earth Alliance would rise.

An alliance guided by the Immortal Sect!

This was precisely the outcome they had yearned for.

This was their most fervent desire.

The recent turn of events beyond the confines of Heaven and Earth Lake had not escaped their notice.

Within Heaven and Earth Lake, only the Immortal Sect possessed the strength to withstand external threats. Failing to secure the protection of the Immortal Sect, the Loose Cultivator Post was destined for gradual decline.

Eventually, it would face annihilation!

Therefore, when presented with an opportunity to align with a formidable power, one must seize it without hesitation!

Wen Ping offered a smile, his gaze filled with approval as he looked upon Pei Wu, and then continued, "The fundamental purpose behind the establishment of the Heaven and Earth Alliance is to unify Heaven and Earth Lake. The nature of the world beyond, I suspect, you have only glimpsed its surface. The Earth Unrestricted Lower Realm is akin to mere cannon fodder; only those in the Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm and the Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted truly possess strength. Even then, confronting even a few of these fodder-like Earth Unrestricted Lower Realms is beyond your current capabilities."

"Whether some of you are willing or unwilling is of no consequence to me; the Heaven and Earth Alliance will undoubtedly be forged. Any opposing forces or individuals will be purged by my Immortal Sect, leaving no trace behind!"

Wen Ping's cold eyes swept across the assembled members of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

They shifted uncomfortably, feeling as though they were perched on needles.

Then, Wen Ping's voice cut through the tension once more: "What are your thoughts?"

With those words spoken, the members of the Hundred Sects Alliance felt a tremor, as if struck by a colossal hammer to their very chests.

One by one, they slowly knelt on a single knee upon the ground.

Wen Ping, his satisfaction evident, retracted his chilling gaze and announced anew, "The inaugural Alliance Leader for the Heaven and Earth Alliance shall be Huaikong, the Demon Emperor hailing from Demon Emperor Lake. Currently, Huaikong commands the might of the Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm. The Vice Alliance Leaders will consist of Chen Xie, an Elder from our sect, Pei Wu from the Loose Cultivator Post, and a representative designated by the Hundred Sects Alliance..."

Wen Ping paused his decree.

His mind was in deep contemplation.

As the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect, tolerance was a virtue he had to embrace.

However, there were limits to what he could overlook.

Wen Ping's initial intention was to select the third Vice Alliance Leader from within the Hundred Sects Alliance. He believed this strategic choice would significantly expedite the integration and reconciliation of the old guard within the Hundred Sects Alliance in a swift manner.

This approach was similar to how Pei Wu had been utilized.

"Is Bainian Hanshan of the Hidden Dragon Sect present?"

Wen Ping had his sights set on Bainian Xiang's father!

Bainian Hanshan had been an integral part of the Hundred Sects Alliance for many years, intimately familiar with its members. He possessed the ideal qualifications to facilitate the assimilation of the Hundred Sects Alliance's established factions.

A Chief of Silver Rank responded, "Sect Leader Wen, Brother Hanshan did not take part in this campaign against the Immortal Sect. He should currently be at the Hidden Dragon Sect's base."

Wen Ping turned his attention to Chen Xie standing beside him and instructed, "Undertake a journey to the Hidden Dragon Sect. Escort Bainian Hanshan here."

"Understood!"

Chen Xie acknowledged the command with a nod.

...

Hidden Dragon Sect.

Due to their deliberate abstention from the Hundred Sects Alliance's offensive against the Immortal Sect, the Hidden Dragon Sect found itself progressively ostracized.

Yet, Bainian Hanshan remained entirely unfazed by this predicament.
