Chapter 267 Reques (1/2)
”Alliance?” Mo Xie asked, although the word itself is nice, he couldn't really tell which part of it is.
An alliance has one aim, a goal in which multiple groups of people had joined to pursue. And since it's already laid down in front of him, Mo Xie couldn't help but pry into it deeper: ”What's the goal of this alliance?”
Meng Wanyu smiled, he looked at Mo Xie full of intent to kill, but for some reason, he's holding himself back. He tried to calm himself further, he breathed a sigh as he calmed himself again and spoke: ”You don't have to worry about those things, we merely want you to stay put and don't get involved too much for a year or two and diligently cultivate.”
Meng Wanyu then looked at the three ladies with his palm wide open before returning his gaze at Mo Xie: ”Of course, for that, we already prepared three top-class cultivation partners.”
His tone stern, still, Mo Xie could detect a lot of hidden intents within the person's eyes, he didn't really know what this person is up to, with Meng Wanyu's status and power, he could definitely kill Mo Xie with a single punch, 'What's up with this person's agenda.'
Meng Wanyu's action felt a little mysterious for Mo Xie, the former seemed to be hiding great hatred, but the person himself is tightly concealing it tightly, making it hard to fathom.
Mo Xie smiled, he shook his head: ”I can join an alliance if its goal is a righteous one, but joining one without a clear goal is something I would not do.”
Mo Xie could be evil or good depending on the occasion, but he'll definitely not join something and be a pawn for others.
Meng Wanyu smiled, he nods his head: ”Well, you don't need to answer now, but when the time has come, you'd need to make the decision immediately on the spot.”
Mo Xie smiled, he nods his head: ”That I will do indeed.”
Whatever it is, Mo Xie felt that it's anything other than good, he gave his answer of rejection but instead of becoming annoyed by it, Meng Wanyu's mood actually became better.
Mo Xie's reply caused one of the females, Wei'er to be saddened.
The females and Meng Wanyu returned to the party leaving Mo Xie alone, the latter contemplated for a while before returning together with the Ouyang siblings.
He remembered something and finally knew why Meng Wanyu's mood is actually is; 'Right, Meng Kou survived!'
Mo Xie scanned the members of the Supreme Crimson Spear Sect and noticeably found no trace of Meng Kou, but it's clearly strange since the latter had known not of his identity back then.
He immediately remembered the eyes that saved Meng Kou at that time; 'Is it me just being too paranoid?'
A single Supreme Crimson Spear Sect will definitely not pose any threat against the three great sects, Mo Xie frowns as he thought of up to this; 'That is... if only there is a single traitor within the sects.'
Mo Xie couldn't help but ponder for more; 'That group is more frightening than I could even think of, how far are they embedded within everything that's happening?'
”Brother Xie, something troubling you?” At this moment, Ouyang Chen cut his thought short: ”You've been spaced out after you came back from the private talk.”
Mo Xie smiled at Ouyang Chen, but then, something made its way to his head: ”Brother, I have some problems, but it's merely an intuition.”
”Oh?” Ouyang Chen asked: ”What is it?”
Mo Xie's expression serious as he spoke: ”There's an uprising from the southern part of the Fallen Leaf Continent has occurred, it's making it's way up, I don't really know what they are planning, but with their momentum, I don't think that they will stop at the two lower rank kingdoms.”
Ouyang Chen nodded, he too knew of the Zhi Hua Royal Kingdom's movements, but it's really just a regular occurrence in the martial world, kingdoms fighting each other for more territories. It's a world where the strong devours the weak after all.
Mo Xie noticed Ouyang Chen's negligence and laid more information: ”For a small kingdom like that, the weakest to boot, they could definitely not attack two kingdoms at the same time, so?”
Ouyang Chen immediately felt enlightened, his eyes wide as he looked at Mo Xie and answered: ”Surely they have someone backing them!”
Mo Xie nodded: ”Exactly.” He paused for a bit before looking at Meng Wanyu and added: ”I think that it's not merely the Dark Guild's doing, there's definitely something higher.”
Mo Xie looked at Ouyang Chen intently, the latter also noticed it: ”Are you perhaps...”
Mo Xie nods his head: ”Yes, someone or some group from the Myriad Earth Abyss continent is sticking its reach all the way to the Fallen Leaf Continent.”
Ouyang Chen nodded, if it's a group that specializes in causing chaos, then, within the Myriad Earth Abyss continent, there is one that sticks out like a sore thumb: ”Blood Mist Shadow Sect...”
Mo Xie nods his head: ”Brother, not that I'm making a big deal out of a random situation, but I've faced them a few times, so I don't really know what to think of this occurrences.”
