Chapter 878: The Experts Set the Rules
Soreed upon after a series of incessant arguments The first rule stated that every faction present was allowed to bring three subordinates with them It didn’t matter if this faction was made of a lone cultivator, a pair, or a whole team They all counted as one ‘faction’, and the number of subordinates allotted to each of them were the sa ti cultivators present than paired or grouped cultivators Therefore, the minority had no choice but to concede to theChen could understand the need for this rule Those who cae in nu even th between cultivators who carow too big It would skew the balance of power a little too roups After all, this was not a friendly collaboration between brothers—everyone here was on guard against each other No one wanted to see another’s power grow so large that it broke the balance This particular rule didn’t bother Jiang Chen Huang’er and Lin Yanyu would be using only two of the three allocated slots Therefore, three slots were h for him
The second rule stated that the total nu with their subordinates, must not exceed five hundred people Five hundred was the absolute limit The third rule stated that everyone must put the rules into effect and that they could use force to enforce it if necessary
The fourth rule stated that, after entering the desolate wildlands, everyone could choose to cooperate with each other or work alone if they so desired The alliance wouldn’t restrict anyone’s choices
…
There were quite a few more major andChen didn’t care ine that the ordinary cultivators outside had no choice but to sub to be enforced by so many emperor realm cultivators There was no doubt about that at all Out of all these rules, what really concerned hi the desolate wildlands, everyone could choose to cooperate with each other or work alone if they so desired The alliance wouldn’t restrict anyone’s choices</e behind this rule What the rule really er on the same side after they entered the desolate wildlands Since they no longer shared any relationshi+p with each other, anyone could fight another to the death if they both ran into so valuable No action would be considered ‘too foul’ In short, the law of the jungle applied after they went inside
Jiang Chen understood this rule very well The group dispersed after the rules were set Just as Jiang Chen was about to netic voice suddenly rang froht not have been present for long, but he had already grasped everyone’s characteristics He knew i out to him the moment he heard the voice A cultivator dressed in a scholarly appearance walked swiftly towards Jiang Chen His attireto the capital for the imperial exams than a cultivator “May we speak so Chen remembered the fellow His name was Lu shi+nan, one of the few cultivators who didn’t display any objections or hostility towards hiuard down around this person, however The talked to a secluded corner before Lu shi+nan sth of your consciousness, Daoist Huang”
“You can save the pleasantries and get to the point, Daoist Lu”
Lu shi+nan showed no anger towards Jiang Chen’s interruption He s that I would like to talk to you about”
“If I remember correctly, you and I share no relationshi+p with one another, so what exactly do you wish to talk about?”
“We ers previously, but we can be friends later, can’t we? You ht have a bit of a hot temper, but I still find youChen didn’t take this praise too seriously After all, pretty words came at no cost
“It’s like this I noticed that you were able to deal with Ole Feng Huan’s a that your true strength is not weaker than us emperor realm cultivators Why don’t we join hands after we enter the desolate wildlands?”
Jiang Chen smiled “You want an alliance? Give me a reason to trust you”
Lu shi+nan said, “I came alone, so I’m sure those people will look down on me, and you even more so If we don’t ally with each other now, the moment we enter the desolate wildlands ill definitely becooes, ht that we should join hands and keep each other safe”
Jiang Chen had to adestionChen had no interest in allying with anyone right now He couldn’t trust a coer either “I’m sorry, but I have companions ofhand, Daoist Lu” Jiang Chen returned to his territory after turning down Lu shi+nan’s offer to work together
He ay for only a short period time, but the nu’er looked around her with a bit of worry “More andChen let out a soft sigh Their arrival was pointless, for they were destined to be barred from entry into the desolate wildlands The alliance of emperors had already been for Chen patted Huang’er’s hand softly “Most of these people are just random bystanders They don’t qualify to enter the desolate wildlands anyways”
