Chapter 813 - The Noon Grass Sect Joins The Alliance (1/2)
With the quick introductions done, Lin Mu got to explaining them about the alliance and why they had made it. Lin Mu simply expanded on what Hua San and Hua Wu had already told the elders about it.
”I never would have thought our suspicions would turn out to be this grave…” Elder Bolin stated.
This was the same elder who had driven the flying ruler and brought everyone here.
”Hmm… when the two alliances started to ask us to join us, I thought the worst. At least the Long cloud alliance reduced their attempts in recruiting us, but the Zither Wind Alliance has been incessant.
Even now, we keep on getting invitations to come to visit their sect. They are even providing free resources to us if we come to their sect and discuss the 'Dao'.” Daoist Hua spoke.
”Huh? Discuss the Dao? As if they even know what 'Dao' is…” another elder scoffed.
”Mmhmm… there is no such thing as free in this world. Someone is always paying the price, if it's not you then it's the other person. But why would someone pay it for free, unless they have some other intentions?” Adviser Liu chimed in.
”Indeed. Elder Hua was wise to reject them. I fear if you accepted and went there, all those that went there might have been controlled by Gu Yao.” Lin Mu stated.
~Sigh~
”That is what I fear… I've heard of the strange methods of the invaders of the past from my own elders. It was with great difficultly and sacrifice that they were removed from this world.
And now this… Gu Yao makes his own and created this situation. He is simply not worthy of living in the world.” Daoist Hua said, after sighing to himself.
”Exactly, and that is why I want all of us to unite and fight against it. Will Daoist Hua and the Noon Grass sect join me in this endeavor?” Lin Mu asked sincerely.
Silence descended on the room as a pregnant pause took hold.
”Of course!” Daoist Hua said out loud, breaking the silence.
”Even if my Noon Grass sect does not participate in the matters of the world, and avoids most things, we know how to pick out battles. The current events are not something we can ignore.
After all, if we ignore them, we will perish in the same way people of the old did.” Daoist Hua spoke.
~phew~
Lin Mu and the others on his side took breaths of relief after hearing this. Even though they knew that it was quite likely the Noon Grass sect might agree, there was still some uncertainty to it.
”Grandfather will be pleased when he hears this. I'm sure he'll like to meet you again, Elder Hua.” Jing Luo spoke in agreement.
Daoist Hua's eyes went to the large man. Jing Luo had lost the wildness he had to him after getting his hair and beard in control. But there was still a little bit of valor in his eyes that was hard to hide.
