Chapter 781 Cooperation
Chapter 781 Cooperation
To be honest, while a hundred thousand people isn't a lot, it's not a small number either. With their participation, Li Yu's forces would be significantly strengthened. However, compared to the entire Xuanyuan Star, this strength is barely a drop in the ocean! Expecting them to be able to take on the entire Xuanyuan Star is sheer wishful thinking!
Although the Xianxia Sect was powerful, Yin Zijuan, like Li Yu, never took them seriously. If it was just the Xianxia Sect, with their power and the addition of the demon clan, they would not be afraid of them, if not easily destroyed.
However, since they were outsiders, it was inevitable that the Xuanyuan Star cultivators would misunderstand them. Coupled with the Xianxia Sect's instigation, they would likely unite against a common enemy and regard them as invaders! As a common enemy!
As an outsider, they couldn't defend themselves, nor did they have the opportunity to do so! Just like the thirty-odd prisoners. Now with these 100,000 people, things were different! That's over 100,000 mouths to feed! Even if they could persuade even one or two of the five major sects to stop being their enemies, their chances of victory would greatly increase!
Thinking of this, Yin Zijuan couldn't help but get excited! Judging from the excited expressions of the crowd, Xi Wuyou knew that his bet was right! At least on the surface, Li Yu and the others needed his strength! He immediately bowed to Li Yu and said:
"Xi is willing to lead his disciples to submit to His Majesty! As long as His Majesty nods, they can enter the Yunfu Mountains at any time and become His Majesty's vanguard!"
"This……"
Honestly, Li Yu did want them to enter the Yunfu Mountains. If nothing else, using human artillery was much more reliable than using demons! At the same time, they could also add a few more spiritual cannons to increase their coverage!
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Yin Zijuan's voice transmission:
"Junior Brother! It's best if Xi Wuyou's over 100,000 men don't enter the Yunfu Mountains for the time being! They are our best propaganda tools!"
Li Yu was stunned! After a little thought, he understood Yin Zijuan's intention. Then he continued:
"As Xi Sheng said, you and I have a common enemy, so we should join hands and fight together! With the 100,000 troops led by Xi Sheng joining us, we will be even more powerful! However, even so, it will be difficult to resist the entire Xuanyuan Star! In my humble opinion, Xi Sheng's 100,000-strong army should temporarily postpone entering the Yunfu Mountains!"
"Your Majesty! What are you doing...?"
Upon hearing this, Xi Wuyou thought Li Yu was unwilling to accept his group, and he couldn't help but panic! You know, this is his best chance to avenge the White Dragon Sect! After all, in his opinion, Li Yu alone is enough to fight against the entire Xianxia Sect!
He had already figured it out. If they relied on themselves, revenge would be nearly impossible! Across Xuanyuan Star, intimidated by the Xianxia Sect's tyranny, few dared to oppose them! Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken them nearly a hundred years to gather such a small group of people. The crimes committed by the five almighty sects, especially the Xianxia Sect, on Xuanyuan Star were countless!
Just when Xi Wuyou was feeling anxious and uneasy, he heard Li Yu say with a smile:
"Don't worry, Saint Xi! Li Yu is an outsider. Saint Xi is willing to cooperate with us, and I, Li Yu, would love to have him. However, Li Yu has offended the Xianxia Sect, and has become an enemy of that sect! However, I am unwilling to make an enemy of the entire world! If I do, it will definitely cause turmoil in the entire Xuanyuan Star! A large number of cultivators will die!
I think even the cultivators from Xuanyuan Star who came to besiege us aren't all ignorant of right and wrong! They've simply been deceived by the Xianxia Sect! If we explain the situation to them, perhaps many will withdraw from the siege of the Yunfu Mountains.
However, due to our identities, we have no way to defend ourselves! Even if we explained the truth, no one would believe us! I'm afraid no one would dare to believe us! Therefore, I have a humble request: I hope Xi Sheng will lead these 100,000 people to speak for me and make the truth known to the world. Perhaps some will stop aiding the evil and withdraw from the siege of our Yunfu Mountains. Or perhaps some will hate the Xianxia Sect and join us! Whatever happens, it will benefit us!
When the time is right, Xi Sheng can lead his men and join us in attacking the Xianxia Sect!"
Li Yu only talked about cooperation, not recruitment. To be honest, Xi Wuyou felt a little disappointed! But after thinking about it, he felt relieved! Whether it was cooperation or recruitment, the goal was revenge! As long as the great revenge was avenged, anything would be fine!
Li Yu's reluctance to recruit Xi Wuyou and his men stemmed from a fear of karma! Cooperation was driven by profit! Both parties came together for profit, and they could also separate for profit. There were no ties, no need for emotion! But recruiting was different! Once recruited, they became his own! He had the responsibility to protect them!
Xi Wuyou was also moved after hearing Li Yu's words! Isn't this also a good opportunity for him to expand his power? Even if the Xianxia Sect continued to cover up, Li Yu's name would have spread throughout Xuanyuan Star! Carrying Li Yu's banner, not to mention bluffing and deceiving, even if he simply explained the facts and hinted that he had joined Li Yu's side, he thought it would definitely attract those who were persecuted by the Xianxia Sect and were hiding! You know, there are not a few such cultivators! According to his estimate, there are at least millions! He immediately bowed to Li Yu and said:
"I will obey your Majesty's orders! I will go back and make arrangements. Within half a month, I will spread the truth throughout Xuanyuan Star!"
Xi Wuyou left as soon as he said he would! He immediately bowed to Li Yu and turned to walk out of the cave!
Li Yu couldn't help but nod secretly! This person is not only tough-minded, but also decisive in his work! I just don't know how capable he is!
When Yin Zijuan saw this, she hurriedly chased after him and sent Xi Wuyou out of the core area while muttering all the way.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xi Wuyou deliberately asked you to avoid crowded places.
Of course, after witnessing the horror of Li Yu's Sun True Fire, the Yunfu Mountains were now completely empty! All the people gathered at the edge of the Yunfu Mountains, especially towns like Qingyang Town, which were overcrowded!
Xi Wuyou had intended to avoid the crowd and quickly leave the mountains. But wherever his divine sense passed, he saw figures everywhere! Clearly, to prevent Li Yu and the others from escaping, the Xianxia Sect had already surrounded the entire Yunfu Mountains!
Instead of sneaking around, it's better to go out openly! At least this way it won't arouse the suspicion of the Xianxia Sect!
Xi Wuyou immediately identified the direction and headed straight for Qingyang Town!
Just as he entered the center, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him! He was so frightened that he stopped in mid-air!
"Brother Tu! Stop it! Do you really want to die? How dare you act so arrogantly?"
Xi Wuyou took a closer look and realized that the person standing in front of him was a wandering cultivator named Chou Renlong who had been captured with him before!
You have to know that Xi Wuyou had originally infiltrated the besieging group as a casual cultivator. Where there's a hierarchy, there's a hierarchy of contempt, and the cultivation world is no exception.
In the cultivation world of Xuanyuan Star, the five major sects reign supreme! They look down upon the world and despise everything! The major sects look down on the smaller ones, and the smaller ones look down on the independent cultivators! Independent cultivators are at the very bottom of the contempt chain, despised by all the sects and families!
Everyone wants to feel superior. Since independent cultivators have nothing to look down upon, they can only look down upon those less superior than themselves! Of course, this is when they can find their own sense of superiority. When they can't, they huddle together for warmth. At least on the surface! As the only two independent cultivators among the thirty-odd cultivators, they came together despite everyone's disdain! It's not necessarily that their relationship is particularly close. They simply want someone to share the contemptuous gazes of others!
This was probably the relationship between Xi Wuyou and the enemy dragon. Otherwise, why would the enemy dragon abandon Xi Wuyou and flee alone? He just couldn't understand. This enemy dragon was not unaware of Li Yu's formidable power. Shouldn't he have fled quickly? Why was he here? Why was he blocking his path?
While Xi Wuyou was thinking, he saw his enemy Long grab his wrist and fall to the ground in a hurry!
