Chapter 1697: Decision of the Brotherhood Alliance

Ye Xiao had traveled over twenty thousand miles now, and the area he went over had become a part of the Monarch’s Hall’s territory. Some leaders followed Ye Xiao and expanded the territory along with him.

There was a rule in these new territories.

Any local people in trouble should ask the Lord Monarch for help.

Anybody from the headquarters of the Monarch’s Hall must take care of their own problems.

All in all, these places all belonged to the Monarch’s Hall. No matter what happened, it couldn’t be a problem for the Monarch’s Hall!

Meng Youjiang and his wife had been making an inspection tour in these places. Bu Xiangfeng had been bringing punishments to the people who violated the rules of the Monarch’s Hall. Chihuo was guarding the Monarch’s Hall, who had been focusing on breaking his own limitation. Once he broke it, he would become one of the top cultivators in the world again…

All in all, the Monarch’s Hall was growing because of the One Meter Higher Sky rising. Ye Xiao and the Monarch’s Hall had almost ruled the entire west of the Limitless Ocean.

They didn’t have enough high-class cultivators yet, but they had recruited hundreds of thousands of people in those days. The Monarch’s Hall should be even bigger than the Great Ye Army now…

…

The Monarch’s Hall was expanding fast, so it surely would draw the attention of one super-powerful force.

The Brotherhood Alliance.

“It is such a surprise. The Monarch’s Hall, such a small gang, actually grows so fast! It feels like they are going to swallow the entire world, starting from the west.” Shangguan Lingxiao frowned.

There were nine other seats around him.

The ten leaders of the Brotherhood Alliance never took different seats when they had a meeting. No matter how many of them attended the meeting, there would always be ten seats encompassing a round table.

“The Monarch’s Hall only recruited good men in the beginning. That made it strong. However, now they recruit anybody who wanted to join because they wanted to expand the territory badly. They had many more people now, but most of them were useless. The entire organization did not get enhanced much from recruitment. I don’t see anything dangerous toward us. Brother, you are overestimating them!” Peng Zhuiyun said. He was the youngest of the ten leaders who had shown up in the City of Chaos with Shangguan Lingxiao the other day.

“Oh, Little Brother, you must have grown up. That was good reasoning. I should change my view of you now!” Shangguan Lingxiao smiled and said,

“Brother, we should spend more time to think about the Great Ye Army than to tease me.” Peng Zhuiyun said.

“What do we think about the Great Ye Army for?” Shangguan Lingxiao frowned and said, “The Great Ye Army… If we want to destroy it, it won’t take longer than two hours!”

“Then let’s do it! I will never forget what they did to us!” Peng Zhuiyun fiercely said.

“Little Brother, you know what? The Monarch’s Hall is the key to the entire plan!

“It looks like a small and peaceful gang.

“Ye Xiao, the leader of the Monarch’s Hall… He has made quite a noise on the way. I don’t understand why he did it. I don’t think he cares about the size of the territory! He doesn’t really want to rule those places!”

Shangguan Lingxiao frowned and said, “The Monarch’s Hall… Our men all failed to get into it while most of our men successfully got into the Great Ye Army…

“The rest of our men didn’t have a chance to be undercover in the Monarch’s Hall.”

“You think they are a bunch of useless people…” Shangguan Lingxiao was worried. “The Limitless Ocean is full of these unruly people… The Monarch’s Hall will recruit a lot of men from the lowest class in the Limitless Ocean. Two or three superior cultivators should be enough to lead… The Monarch’s Hall can become a top-class force in a short time!”

Shangguan Lingxiao said, “The Monarch’s Hall didn’t rise, but it will rise. It is ten thousand times more terrible than the Great Ye Army… Brothers, we must not underestimate it.”

A tough man in golden robe silently listened to him. Suddenly, he said, “Brother, will the Monarch’s Hall become our enemy?”

Shangguan Lingxiao was surprised. After a while, he said, “It depends.”

“Do you think the Monarch’s Hall will become even bigger than the Brotherhood Alliance?” The man in the golden robe asked again.

Shangguan Lingxiao hesitated for a longer time, and said, “It depends.”

“Well, do you think we will definitely become a competitor to the Monarch’s Hall, and we can never be their friends?” The man in the golden robe asked again.

Shangguan Lingxiao stood up. Apparently, he realized what the point was. He said, “Big Brother, you are right. I thought too much about it. How unexpected! I actually suffered from imaginary fears!”

The man in the golden robe nodded and said, “Brother, a wise man always thinks further than others, but sometimes you thought too much. Lingxiao, the Brotherhood Alliance is always just an alliance of individual cultivators in the martial world.

“There are all kinds of people in the martial world, and we are doing great to live among them. We always get what we really need, and give up those we don’t. We should always do no more than we need to, so we can make as few mistakes as we can…”

The man in the golden robe was serious.

‘We give up those we don’t need, not those we can’t get.’

‘When we get something we don’t really need, it may not be helpful at all!’

That was quite a different view!

“Everybody knows that the Brotherhood Alliance has a lot of people… No one can deny it. However, we never aspire to rule the world.” The man in the golden robe said, “That is why we always survived.”

“Lingxiao, you are going extreme. You treated a rising new force as a threat to us before anything really happens… That is wrong. We shouldn’t think that way!”

The man in the golden robe smiled.

“There more different forces in the Limitless Ocean, the better. The stronger a new organization is, the better…”

He thought for a while and blandly smiled.

His bland smile was a hint to everybody, and they all got the point.

The man in the golden robe said, “Remember what we always say… We are brothers in the martial world.”

Shangguan Lingxiao nodded seriously and said, “That’s right. Big Brother, you are right. I was ignorant, and I nearly led us to the wrong point.”
