Strange mountains and rivers

Chen Huaisheng was still somewhat surprised by Yu Fengqian's statement.

The Holy Fire Sect had always had some doubts about the alliance with Dahuaishan. Although the two brothers Yan Chixing and Yan Yunxing plus Qin Zhaoye firmly supported it, Qu Chan and Yao Yunjun had ambiguous attitudes. In addition, Liu Chuiyang, who had just become a member of the Purple Mansion Elders of the Holy Fire Sect and was Yu Fengqian's master, also had a vague attitude. Under such circumstances, Yan Chixing had to be cautious and even postponed the alliance with Dahuaishan, and changed it to another alliance within three years.

Chen Huaisheng could also understand the concerns of the Holy Fire Sect. Even if he and Yu Fengqian got married and became a Taoist couple, personal feelings had to be put aside when it came to the interests of the sect.

Since the strength of Dahuaishan has not reached a convincing level and it is facing the threat of attack from Fengyi Sect, Yuelu Sect, Pan Sect of Hanshan and Ning Sect of Youzhou, the risk of being dragged into war by forming an alliance is too great.

But now the strength of Dahuaishan has been successfully expanded. The number of Purple Mansion True Lords has not only doubled from two to four, but they have also successfully withstood the threats from Yuelu Sect and Fengyi Sect in the past three or four years. As for the Pan family of Hanshan and the Ning family of Youzhou, the times have changed and they are unable to take care of themselves. They no longer have the energy to compete with Dahuaishan.

It seems normal for the Holy Fire Sect to propose an alliance at this time. After all, the three-year agreement has expired, and in the past few years, the two sides have already achieved the exchange of cultivation locations and the sharing of spiritual treasures and spiritual materials, and their relationship has become increasingly close. It can be said that they are not allies but better than allies. It makes sense to formally form an alliance now.

However, Chen Huaisheng always felt that there seemed to be something unspeakable in it, as if the Holy Fire Sect had suddenly become extremely enthusiastic about this matter, which seemed to be inconsistent with the Holy Fire Sect's previous style.

It's not that I don't trust Yu Fengqian, but from Yu Fengqian's perspective, I'm afraid some things can't be said too clearly. Anyway, this alliance is a definite goal and will not change. Whether it is finalized early or late, it doesn't seem to affect anything.

"Feng Qian, what you said seems to make me doubt the sincerity of the Holy Fire Sect. Haha, you know, I have always been eager to sign an alliance with the Holy Fire Sect as soon as possible. Even now, I have never concealed this point. Signing a contract will benefit both of us." Chen Huaisheng smiled and said, "The situation of your sect should have changed a little in the past few years, right?"

Yu Fengqian sighed softly. She knew that her lover was very thoughtful and there were many things that could not be hidden from him.

Of course, she had no intention of hiding it from the other party, but she had been thinking about how to explain it in order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment.

"There are definitely changes. At the beginning of the year, Yue Yunjian successfully advanced to the Purple Palace." Yu Fengqian pursed his lips: "Master Yao also advanced to the initial stage of Soul Condensation."

"Oh? Congratulations then." Chen Huaisheng raised his eyebrows. "This is a great event. Why do you seem a little unhappy, Feng Qian? Are you not happy to see Yao Yunjun improve his realm, or are you feeling frustrated that your master failed to break through?"

Yu Fengqian rolled his eyes at Chen Huaisheng: "My master and I are not that narrow-minded. Uncle Yao's breakthrough is a great thing..."

"Then you..." Chen Huaisheng tilted his head, lowered his face, and sniffed the scent on Yu Fengqian's shoulders, "There can't be anything else, right?"

Yu Fengqian calmed down and said, "Actually, the Sanqing Sect started to move eastward a year ago. It was a little obscure before, but now the Gu family and the Yu family should have reached a tacit understanding with the Sanqing Sect. They joined forces to attack the Ziyang Sect..."

Chen Huaisheng couldn't help scratching his head. The situation in Wu Yue was also in a mess. The relationships and disputes between the sects and the families were often reversed. Sometimes they united, and sometimes they fought. He couldn't see clearly.

"Wait a minute, Sanqing Sect is teaming up with Gu Family and Yu Family to deal with Ziyang Sect. I remember that Ziyang Sect initially teamed up with Kong Family and Qian Family to attack your Shenghuo Sect. Now Sanqing Sect is attacking Ziyang Sect. It seems that even if you don't take advantage of the situation, you can sit back and watch the fight. Why do you sound like you Shenghuo Sect is worried about Ziyang Sect?"

Chen Huaisheng's doubts made Yu Fengqian sigh: "Not only that, Longjing Sect seems to have taken action. They used pirate forces to attack small and medium-sized families on land, and they were a little secretive. This also caused a reaction from Jinding Sect, so the two sides were stable for a while, but recently Longjing Sect has relapsed and its strength has become more and more fierce, while Jinding Sect does not seem to care much. Instead, it took the initiative to attack Dong's family. This should be a tacit understanding with Longjing Sect. We can't see the situation in Wuyue clearly now. The leader is very worried, so let me ask first..."

This question was a little difficult for Chen Huaisheng to answer.

The situation in Wuyue was originally very chaotic. On the surface, various aristocratic families were spread throughout the entire Wuyue. If it could be like Western Tang, it would definitely become a world ruled by aristocratic families. However, there were too many aristocratic families in Wuyue, their branches were too small, and there were many internal conflicts, so they could not unite as one. This gave these sects an opportunity.

Now it seems that the advance of the Sanqing Sect has caused great turmoil in the entire Wu Yue situation.

"Feng Qian, what does Sect Master Yan want to ask?" Chen Huaisheng rubbed his temple with a wry smile: "You asked so abruptly and without any reason, I can't answer it."

"The judgment of the sect is that the Sanqing Sect, Longjing Sect, and Jinding Sect must have some connection. They intend to completely eliminate those small and medium-sized families and seize their resources..."

Yu Fengqian's question puzzled Chen Huaisheng: "So what? What do you think of the Holy Fire Sect? Do you want to join, or do you think it will endanger you?"

"The sect leader and his men are now somewhat confused and worried, because we don't know what will happen if this situation continues. For example, after the small aristocratic families are cleaned up and devoured, what will Longjing Sect and Jinding Sect do next? The Sanqing Sect is also very worrying. If Baishi Sect becomes their backer, no one in the entire Wuyue will be able to restrain them. Even Longjing Sect and Jinding Sect cannot do it together..."

Yu Fengqian expressed the Holy Fire Sect’s current worries and fears.

An uncertain future is what makes a sect like theirs, which is isolated in a corner of the East China Sea, feel afraid.

For example, the Sanqing Sect invaded Xinzhou from the east, the Jinding Sect guarded Yanshan, and the Longjing Sect cleared out the small clans in the central and southern parts. If the Shenghuo Sect wanted to land, it would have to pass through these three territories, or it would have to take a detour through the Canghai Sea, but there were too many uncertainties.
