Chapter 216: Alliance Emissary
Everything that needs to be done has been done, and after the feast is dispersed, Ling Aotian was about to say goodbye to Blaise, but before he could speak, Blaise spoke first: "Brother Ling, are you planning to leave?"
Ling Aotian nodded and said, "That's right, it's been a while since a few of us left Fengluo Pavilion, and the Lord of Destruction has been eyeing us all the time, plus this shot, if the Lord of Destruction holds a grudge and makes a move on my Fengluo Pavilion, it won't be good." β
Brace was stunned for a moment, Ling Aotian's words were extremely clever, and he directly blocked back what he wanted to say, originally, he was worried that the Broken Empire would attack again, and planned to let Ling Aotian and them stay for a while, but after Ling Aotian said this, if he made this request again, it would be difficult for some strong people, besides, even if Ling Aotian agreed, then he would owe Ling Aotian a favor.
Caught in such an embarrassment, Brace couldn't help but curse himself for being stupid, if it weren't for the hesitation in his heart and the failure to speak in time for a while, he would not have fallen into such a dilemma.
Ling Aotian said the previous words, naturally it was deliberate, for the alliance between Fengluo Pavilion and the Imperial Alliance, he already had seventy percent certainty, since this was the case, he naturally wanted to strive for some favorable conditions for the future alliance, just when Blaise opened his mouth to ask if they were leaving, he understood what the other party meant, so he immediately said the words he had already thought of, and blocked Blaise's mouth, so that if Blaise made another request, he would naturally owe him a favor, in that way, for the alliance between the two major forces, Blaise would naturally do his best to promoteγ
Of course, Ling Aotian also knew the truth of being too much, he didn't embarrass Brace for too long, and when Brace was hesitating because of his words, he spoke up at the right time: "General, but there is still something to do?"
Hearing Ling Aotian take the initiative to ask, Brace breathed a sigh of relief, this time, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and said his thoughts: " That's the case, Brother Ling, you also know that although we have blocked the attack of the Broken Empire with your help this time, but in this war, our losses are also extremely heavy, and the Lord of Destruction will definitely not stop there, if the Broken Empire comes back again, with our strength, before the alliance's reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist, so, I would like to ask Brother Ling and a few adults to stay for a few more days, and wait for the alliance's reinforcements to arrive before leaving, okay?"
Blaise's request was naturally expected by Ling Aotian, but after a while, the previous words he had already uttered, he naturally had to pretend to be extremely embarrassed, and it was not until Blaise almost thought that he was going to refuse, he raised his head again, looked at Blaise, sighed, and said, "Alas, since the general has invited, then I will stay for a few more days." β
"Aotian! no!" The Ghost King had already guessed Ling Aotian's plan, and was determined to add a fire, "The Lord of Destruction has long hated my Fengluo Pavilion to the core, if he gets the news and knows that our door is empty, he will definitely take the opportunity to attack, you must not joke with the lives of hundreds of thousands of disciples in the sect." β
Seeing that the Ghost King suddenly spoke, Ling Aotian naturally understood that he was always taking the opportunity to ignite the fire, and when he shook his head, he said to the Ghost King: "Senior Ghost King, don't say any more, I am naturally worried about the safety of the disciples in the sect, but, have you ever thought that we and the Imperial Alliance are now in the same boat, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, so we can prevent the Lord of Destruction from taking the opportunity to attack, but what if the Lord of Destruction does not attack Fengluo Pavilion, but continues to attack the Imperial Alliance?" If we let the alliance suffer because of our selfishness, wouldn't it be in vain to weaken our power? As for what you said about the Lord of Destruction attacking Fengluo Pavilion, I also thought about it, although staying here will make Fengluo Pavilion take some risks, but with the Pavilion Lord here, it is not so easy for the Lord of Destruction to take down Fengluo Pavilion, so we can stay here first to prevent the Lord of Destruction from attacking the Imperial Alliance, as for Fengluo Pavilion, we just need to pay attention to the news, once we find that the situation is not right, we will immediately rush back to support, and there should be no major incident. β
The purpose of igniting the fire had been achieved, and the Ghost King would no longer argue with Ling Aotian, so he only said, "Since this is the case, it is up to you!" and stopped talking.
Seeing that Ling Aotian had agreed to stay, Brian was overjoyed, and after some gratitude, he personally took them to a tent in the barracks that housed important people in the empire.
Unexpectedly, since the defeat in the previous war, in the next few days, the Shattered Empire has not moved at all, and there is no intention of launching a counteroffensive at all.
The fact that there is no movement in the Broken Empire does not mean that the Imperial Alliance can be taken lightly, on the contrary, under this calm atmosphere, the atmosphere in the alliance military camp has become more tense, every day, millions of soldiers are constantly training, and everyone's face has a solemn look.
Compared to the tension with the people in the Imperial Alliance, Ling Aotian and them were much more relaxed, the purpose of their stay here was to prevent the Shattered Empire from attacking, but now that the Shattered Empire had not made the slightest movement, they were naturally happy and relaxed, except for chatting with Blaise a few words every day, they were almost all nested in the tent to cultivate.
After ten days of such peace, it was finally broken. On this day, Ling Aotian and the others were cultivating in the camp tent when they heard a burst of earth-shattering cheers coming from outside the camp tent.
Disturbed by the cheers, the Phantom Demon King, who was unable to enter the cultivation state, stood up, looked out of the tent with dissatisfaction, and said, "It's really strange, and they didn't win the battle, why are they so happy?"
Ling Aotian and the Ghost King also withdrew from their cultivation state, looked at each other for a moment, and then said at the same time, "The reinforcements from the Imperial Alliance have arrived!"
Soon, Ling Aotian and the Ghost King's suspicion was confirmed, and just as they heard the cheers outside for a long time and were about to go out to see what was going on, the voice of Adjutant General Brace came from outside the tent.
"Ling Gongzi, the general is invited!"
"It seems that the person in charge of the alliance is here!" Ling Aotian smiled slightly, "Let's go meet us!"
Several people left the camp and, under the leadership of the adjutant general, came to the big tent of Brace.
"Brother Ling, you're here!" Seeing Ling Aotian and a few people coming, Brace stood up from his seat and greeted a few people.
Brace has always attached great importance to Ling Aotian and the others, and it is not the first time that he has stood up to greet a few people like this, so when they saw him come up, they were not too polite, and after greeting him, they each found a place in the hall and sat down.
Ling Aotian's casual movements were nothing to Brace, who had already gotten along with them, but the actions they had long been accustomed to made the old man sitting opposite Brace frown slightly.
Brace didn't notice the old man's abnormality, and said excitedly: "Everyone, come, let me introduce you, this is the envoy sent by our Imperial Alliance, Lord Dean. β
After introducing the old man, Brace pointed at Ling Aotian and the others and said to the old man, "Lord Dean, these are the few strong men who helped our alliance army solve the danger and repel the army of the Destruction Empire that day. β
"Hmph!" Just when a few people were about to bow their hands, a cold snort came out of the old man's mouth, "It turned out to be the strong man of Fengluo Pavilion, a few big shelves!"
The old man's inexplicable words made Ling Aotian and them stunned for a moment.
"Lord Dean!" Brace's face changed, he really couldn't understand why this old man was so polite when he was just meeting Ling Aotian and them for the first time, at this time, he didn't expect that this old man named Dean was angry because of his behavior towards Ling Aotian and the others just now.
Ling Aotian and the others were also extremely puzzled, they thought that they had not provoked this old man named Dean, why he was so dissatisfied with them.
"Shut up!" Dean glared at Blaise fiercely, "Blaise, you are also the commander of the Coalition, and you treat a group of rough people in such a low voice, and the face of the Alliance has made you disgraced. β
"Lord Dean!" Brace's face became ugly, Dean's words were indeed a bit excessive, just saying that Ling Aotian and a few people had solved the danger of the alliance, it could be said that he had a great favor to the alliance, based on this alone, even if he was committed to making friends, it would not damage the face of the alliance, not to mention that Ling Aotian and the others were strong people in Fengluo Pavilion, and in terms of identity alone, they were actually not inferior to him, but this old sentence attributed Ling Aotian and others to the first-class of the mountain and wild mangfu, which was really an insult to people.
"Old thing, you try it again!" The Phantom Demon King spoke, he had lived for more than two thousand years, and no one dared to attribute him to the reckless first-class, Dean's words made him forget for a while the original purpose of their stay in the alliance camp, and even forgot that he was much older than the other party, and blurted out an old thing.
"It's just a bunch of rough people, how dare they yell at me like that!" Dean was obviously in an unusual position in the Alliance, and at this time, he still didn't realize that the situation was wrong, and looked at the Phantom Demon King with a proud face, with his nostrils facing the sky.
Ling Aotian's brows furrowed imperceptibly, to be honest, this envoy sent by the Imperial Alliance really surprised him a little, it stands to reason that if the Imperial Alliance really intended to form an alliance, it would definitely not despise them so much, but this Dean's performance was really disappointing.
