Chapter 337: Establishing the Celestial Alliance
Xiao Yi Xian quickly exited the cave. The earlier intimacy with Xiao Ze made her feel nervous when alone with him. She always felt that Xiao Ze's gaze was like an invisible hand caressing her.
Xiao Ze didn't pay much attention to Xiao Yi Xian, thinking she simply wanted to share her joy of reaching the Dou Zun rank with Qing Lin and Medusa.
Qing Lin and Medusa had already noticed that the barrier was lifted and looked toward the cave entrance. Seeing Xiao Yi Xian step out lightly, they sensed her presence had reached their level.
"Congratulations, Xiao Yi Xian, on reaching the Dou Zun rank," said Qing Lin cheerfully, stepping forward and taking Xiao Yi Xian's hand.
"Congratulations," Medusa added with a smile.
"It's all thanks to Xiao Ze, who helped me organize the Fate Poison Body, allowing me to advance to Dou Zun," Xiao Yi Xian replied, grateful for Xiao Ze's assistance.
During this time, Xiao Ze had invested much energy and spiritual power to help her, something she had noticed and kept in her heart.
"Hahaha, it also has to do with the solid foundation you already had," Xiao Ze said as he approached Xiao Yi Xian.
Feeling Xiao Ze's gaze, Xiao Yi Xian's heart unconsciously quickened. However, with Qing Lin and Medusa present, she didn't feel the same discomfort as before and relaxed a bit.
"By the way, Xiao Yi Xian, someone from the Dark Alliance came to inform us earlier..." Qing Lin said, recalling the report, and explained it to Xiao Ze and Xiao Yi Xian.
After hearing the explanation, Xiao Ze nodded, finding Qing Lin's management reasonable. However, Xiao Yi Xian frowned, which intrigued Xiao Ze.
"What's wrong? Isn't this the right way to handle it?"
Xiao Yi Xian shook her head. "Under normal circumstances, this solution would be fine, but you just returned from the central continent and are unaware of the situation in the empires around the Black-Corner Domain."
"As the leader of the Dark Alliance, I know these empires' situations better and have dealt with their royal families and power leaders there."
"Calling them incompetent is generous. In fact, part of the reason for the formation of the Black-Corner Domain is due to the incompetence of these empires."
"Expecting them to take our warning about those practicing the Soul Devouring technique seriously is as unlikely as expecting Yun Shan to return to the Black-Corner Domain to surrender."
After hearing this, everyone became more serious.
"Then should we let the Dark Alliance handle it personally?" Qing Lin asked. If they couldn't rely on neighboring empires, they would have to depend on the Dark Alliance.
Before Xiao Yi Xian could respond, Xiao Ze intervened: "That won't work either. Even if they're inept, they won't allow a force like the Dark Alliance into their territories; it would be like inviting a wolf into their home."
Xiao Yi Xian nodded. "That's correct. To the neighboring empires, the Dark Alliance, after eliminating the Dark Alliance and the Yunlan Sect, is already a feared force."
"And there's an even more important reason. The Great Elder won't allow the Dark Alliance to extend its influence too much."
Xiao Yi Xian's words left Qing Lin and Medusa confused. As part of the Jia Nan Academy, the Great Elder was supposed to support the Dark Alliance's development.
Xiao Ze quickly understood. The creation of the Dark Alliance aimed to protect the academy's students while training in the Black-Corner Domain. Its primary function was to serve the academy.
Expanding beyond the Black-Corner Domain would change the nature of the Dark Alliance from being an academy extension to becoming a tool for personal conquest. Such a decision would be too significant, even for the Great Elder.
After briefly explaining this, Qing Lin and Medusa nodded in understanding.
"We can't stand by and watch those practicing evil techniques do whatever they want," said Xiao Yi Xian. "Xiao Ze, why don't we form our own force? I have experience managing the Dark Alliance and won't require much effort from you."
Xiao Yi Xian proposed a novel solution.
"Forming a new force to deal with those practicing evil techniques..." Xiao Ze stroked his chin, feeling it was a significant step.
However, since the northwest of the continent was the home of the Xiao family, he also intended to manage it well. Especially since Xiao Yan seemed uninterested in managing forces, focused solely on going to the central continent, it would depend on him.
Moreover, if the Hall of Souls caused another disturbance in the northwest, the Xiao family might not be so lucky next time and could be affected.
"Alright, but I want to talk to the Great Elder to see if we can get some support."
Everyone agreed and followed Xiao Ze back to the academy, seeking the Great Elder to discuss the matter.
Su Qian, the Great Elder, frowned upon hearing Xiao Ze's request. Although the Dark Alliance was combating those practicing evil techniques, it was a matter that could have repercussions.
"Xiao Ze, I can't make this decision alone. Entering other regions to eliminate the remnants of the Yunlan Sect won't go unnoticed by other forces."
"The Dark Alliance is not officially part of the academy, but the connection is obvious to them. This would be seen as a declaration of war, something the academy can't afford."
"At least until the director approves it, I can't give my consent," Su Qian said slowly. Although he valued Xiao Ze and wanted to support him, this matter was too serious and could cause the Jia Nan Academy to be attacked by all forces in the northwest.
"I understand," Xiao Ze replied with a smile, not having expected much success from the beginning, so he wasn't too disappointed.
"But, Great Elder, could you give me some kind of help?" Xiao Ze asked.
"Speak," Su Qian said, willing to help in other matters.
"I want to form a new force and need Xiao Yi Xian's help to manage it."
"Oh?" Su Qian showed interest and also some caution. "What kind of force do you want to form?"
"It will be called the Celestial Alliance, and its initial goal will be to deal with the remnants of the Yunlan Sect, as a conclusion to the recent disturbance in the northwest."
