Chapter 678: Alliance in Darkness

    

red blood shimmered with golden light, making Shen Xiang's breathing quicken. He was very sure that this was the Bloodline of Suppressing Demons he had been searching for!"Is this the Bloodline of Sup...Chapter 678: Alliance in Secret

To everyone's surprise, Lanran and Yan Yaren followed behind Shen Xiang after he left the Temple of Demons and Devils. Although they were using very subtle methods, they were still discovered by Dragon Xuyi's powerful divine sense.

"Have you seen Hurry and thank this dragon, for it's the one that has made these two beauties fancy you. The little cat demon didn't even pay attention to the people from Heavenly Flame Temple, yet she followed you secretly. This is all due to me," Dragon Xuyi said smugly.

"Don't get too boastful. Perhaps they're after my head, and even if they like me, it's because of my personal charisma. Why should you care about this annoying dragon"

Shen Xiang quickened his pace and darted through the streets, but Lanran and Yan Yaren still followed him closely.

Finally, he arrived at Gu Dongchen's residence. Sitting there, Shen Xiang knew that these two women were not after him for any other reason.

"Greetings, what is it" Shen Xiang targeted them and sent his voice over.

Lanran and Yan Yaren immediately appeared and walked over to him.

To Shen Xiang's surprise, Lanran and Yan Yaren knew each other. Although they came from two different directions, their looks did not betray any signs of surprise when they saw each other.

"We don't have anything to worry about; we're just worried that your head might fall off," Lanran stuck out her tongue playfully.

Yan Yaren smiled seductively, "Is this place suitable for conversation"

Suddenly, the door opened and Gu Dongchen appeared in front of Yan Yaren and Lanran. This frightened them, as they recognized Gu Dongchen—the head of the Great Martial Sect.

"It is suitable for talking, come in," Gu Dongchen said as he saw Shen Xiang flirting with the beauties.

In the hall, Lanran and Yan Yaren respectfully gave Gu Dongchen their greetings. They knew that they had to be courteous towards such a great figure.

On the other hand, Shen Xiang crossed his legs and asked, "Why have you been following me for so long"

"Not at all…" Lanran's voice was loud earlier, but she quickly realized that Gu Dongchen was there.

"If it's inconvenient, I'll just avoid the situation,"

"But Elder Head Gu, we have something to say regarding you as well," Yan Yaren hurriedly said.

Gu Dongchen and Shen Xiang were both taken aback. Gu Dongchen sat down as well at this moment.

Yan Yaren said sternly, "Maybe you don't know that many factions have secretly joined together and made agreements to not fight against each other, helping each other along the way. This is only known by the core members of such factions, and we also meet regularly to train."

Lanran nodded in agreement, "The main reason is that the two forces are leading alliances on the King Realm continents. One of them is our Blue Blood Clan, and the other is Martial Family Village."

The Blue Blood Clan and Martial Family Village were very mysterious families on the King Realm continents, each with unknown true strengths. Now that they had secretly joined forces with other factions and established good agreements, it was evident that they were planning something.

Yan Yaren continued, "However, the Great Martial Sect has enemies in the Dawn Realm continents and has also gained rivals due to Shen Xiang. Inevitably, more forces will be provoked in the future…"

"Wait, it was them who did something first," Shen Xiang interrupted hastily.

Gu Dongchen explained, "I know, the Great Martial Sect has a strong overall strength and naturally isn't afraid of Heavenly Flame Temple or Demon Exorcism College's malicious moves. But smaller factions might not be able to handle it, and if Martial Family Village or Blue Blood Clan doesn't make the first move, these smaller factions might fall victim to Heavenly Flame Temple and Demon Exorcism College's tyranny."

Lanran and Yan Yaren nodded in agreement.

The Sacred Light Sect was beginning to disintegrate. Qin Zekun, along with many important elders from the Sacred Light Sect, had disappeared for a long time and failed to make waves. The Eastern Sea was now scattered with sand, but from the current situation, most factions were most likely already secretly aligned with them.

Gu Dongchen seemed to have known this beforehand.

Lanran nodded, "Our Blue Blood Clan and Martial Family Village have no intention of becoming world-class powers. We do this for the sake of ensuring that our world, the World of Martial Arts, will not be absorbed by external forces. Moreover, with the world on the brink of disaster, as one of the stronger factions in the World of Martial Arts, we have to protect those smaller factions."

Shen Xiang was pleasantly surprised by Lanran's current behavior. He said, "In the Dawn Realm continents, isn't it only we from Great Martial Sect who haven't joined your alliance"

Lanran said, "God Armament Heaven Empire, Pill Fragrance Peach Source, Lotus Island, and Great Martial Sect are not involved. Other factions, including the Demon Dao Sect, have already joined our alliance."

Yan Yaren continued, "If you join us, it would be the best. But we're afraid that you might be a major force and won't protect smaller factions."

Gu Dongchen said seriously, "If Great Martial Sect were to join you guys, we might end up dragging you down. You're seeking stability and will only retaliate if others don't offend you, right"

Lanran and Yan Yaren nodded in agreement.

"But Great Martial Sect is different, we'll annihilate forces like Heavenly Flame Temple and Demon Exorcism College without hesitation as soon as they make any move!" Gu Dongchen's voice became serious, "We've been investigating the disappearance of many young men recently, and it might be related to the Demon Exorcism College's Divine Son."

"There's also Heavenly Flame Temple, they're focused on cultivating fire and will do anything to acquire resources that aid in their cultivation. We have to destroy this kind of person sooner or later,"

Shen Xiang chuckled, "From what we've seen, it seems like we can't join your alliance anymore."

"Haha, joining the alliance is out of our reach. But we can still do business together. You guys need pills and weapons, right I'll let God Armament Heaven Empire and Pill Fragrance Peach Source discuss with you later," Shen Xiang said. "Of course, I have some pills too. If you can pay for them, I'll sell them to you."

Gu Dongchen shook his head, "If you agree to make the alliance public knowledge, Great Martial Sect will join. I don't want to do things secretly; only by making Heavenly Flame Temple and Demon Exorcism College aware of this matter will they fear us, and won't dare to act rashly."at the Dan Immortal Realm couldn’t be simple, otherwise it wouldn’t be called the Dan Immortal Realm! However, he thought that the more powerful place of the Dan Immortal Realm should be inside Chaos...
