Chapter 1100: Secret Contact
After finally escaping from Chirao's demonic grasp, the elders kept looking at Xu Jie and asked.
Xu brat, tell us what you think.
Yes, actually it's simple. Right now the Five Tribe Alliance is no longer as solid as before, after all we've suffered so many losses, especially the Ancient and Stone Tribes—they've even lost their Luck Power.
Compared to dealing with us humans, I think they're more worried about themselves.
It's only because they fear our human threat that they've maintained the alliance.
At this moment, if we could take the initiative to make contact and show goodwill, I think the opportunity would still be great.
As Xu Jie spoke, hearing this, the elders' eyes lit up, and the Cloud Lotus Shèngzhǔ even laughed.
You mean we should pick either the Ancient Tribe or the Stone Tribe to make contact and win over?
Not bad.
Xu Jie's words are not without reason; first, humans possess what the Stone and Ancient Tribes need.
That is their Luck Power.
Moreover, the Five Tribe Alliance is essentially formed out of fear of humans.
If humans could take the initiative to show friendliness and give the Ancient or Stone Tribe appropriate assurances, dispelling their worries, would they still be willing to form this so-called alliance?
Put bluntly, the Five Tribe Alliance has basically failed up to now.
After all, besides their ancestral lands, they haven't even touched a hair of humans, and they've lost the Luck Power of the two major hegemonic tribes.
If it weren't that they're currently grasshoppers on the same rope, the Five Tribe Alliance would have collapsed long ago.
And Xu Jie's meaning is to cut that rope.
This idea is not bad; moreover, if successful, we wouldn't need to expose it—we could stay hidden, and when the real great battle comes, we could suddenly turn traitor, which would surely have unexpected effects.
The elders pooled their wisdom and quickly made improvements based on Xu Jie's foundation.
Upon hearing the humans' discussion, the five Charm Tribe elders attending their first council were already stunned.
How many schemes do these humans have?
How long has it been? Not even a quarter hour, and humans have already come up with so many poisonous schemes, each seeming feasible.
They exchanged glances, and the five Charm Tribe elders each had a look of sudden realization.
No wonder the Five Tribe Alliance, when facing humans before, couldn't gain any advantage.
With their little scheming, compared to humans it's practically child's play.
The difference between them is not just a little.
Look at these human schemes, one set after another—they're impossible to guard against.
Look at the Five Tribe Alliance; even if they rack their brains, it's basically meaningless.
That's the gap.
The five Charm Tribe elders couldn't get a word in; after everyone finished discussing, Yun Xiantai turned to the five Charm Tribe elders and asked.
Do you Charm Tribe have any thoughts?
Ah...........
Upon hearing that, the five Charm Tribe elders were stunned; what could they possibly think?
What you can think of and what you can't—haven't you already said it all?
They shook their heads dully.
No.......... no............
This time, the five Charm Tribe elders personally witnessed the terror of humans.
Not only is their strength terrifying, but their scheming is equally terrifying—just a few people, and they have over eight hundred schemes.
Each of those schemes is conceived to be extremely tight, with not a single loophole to be found.
Furthermore, just now stopping, the five Charm Tribe elders felt that if the plan is carried out, neither the Ancient nor Stone Tribe would have any chance to refuse; they'd basically be under control.
Seeing that the five Charm Tribe elders had no objections, Yun Xiantai immediately said.
Since that's settled, next we choose a target—do you all think the Stone Tribe or the Ancient Tribe would be better?
I think the Ancient Tribe would be a bit better.
Indeed, the Ancient Tribe has been driven to desperation, even seizing the Luck Power of its own Sub Tribe; if we use Luck Power as a bargaining chip now, it should be easy.
The elders leaned more toward the Ancient Tribe, but the five Charm Tribe elders furrowed their brows slightly and said.
We think the Stone Tribe would be better.
Huh???
Upon hearing that, everyone's gazes turned over, but they quickly understood.
After all, the Charm Tribe was formerly a Sub Tribe of the Ancient Tribe; cooperating with the Ancient Tribe now would indeed be somewhat awkward.
Moreover, it's uncertain how the Ancient Tribe might treat the Charm Tribe in the future.
So compared to the Ancient Tribe, the Charm Tribe prefers to choose the Stone Tribe.
Although the Stone Tribe also has grudges, compared to the Ancient Tribe it's clearly much better.
However, from the humans' standpoint, the Ancient Tribe is easier to manipulate.
The Stone Tribe has just ended a feud; going to them now would indeed be more difficult.
Yun Xiantai, Yu Mo, and others fell into contemplation; the five Charm Tribe elders grew a bit anxious, for they truly didn't want to choose the Ancient Tribe, but now the decision power lies again in human hands, leaving them with no recourse.
At this moment, Chirao turned her head to look at Ye Zhangqing, speaking softly and coquettishly.
Dear brother, help sister, okay? You know our relationship with the Ancient Tribe; if this.........
Chirao immediately thought of Ye Zhangqing, and also wanted to see whether this Ye Zhangqing could actually sway the humans' decision.
At first Ye Zhangqing didn't agree, but under Chirao's offensive, he eventually gave in.
This woman really knows how to do it, and she's bold; with so many people here, Ye Zhangqing himself is embarrassed to death.
"That......, elders, I think the Stone Tribe is a bit better."
Huh???
Ye Zhangqing suddenly spoke up; hearing this, all the elders were stunned—how could this kid............
But after turning their heads, they quickly realized what had happened.
Only to see, at this moment Ye Zhangqing's face was flushed red, his clothes also........... and there were red spots all over his neck.
Everyone here is experienced, so they instantly understood what it meant.
Then they glanced at Chi Rao leaning on Ye Zhangqing's body, and everything became clear.
Yun Xiantai, Yu Mo and the others even gave a look that I understood.
Ye Zhangqing directly chose to ignore this, and didn't respond.
However, upon hearing Ye Zhangqing's words, the elders fell silent for a moment, with Dao Yi Shengdi led by Yun Xiantai being the first to speak.
"In that case, I also think the Stone Tribe is more suitable, after all there aren't so many ties—what do you think?"
With Yun Xiantai, Yu Mo and the five others speaking up, Yao Chi Holy Land and Yun Luo Holy Land also quickly gave their reply.
They unanimously agreed that the Stone Tribe was more suitable.
Before, they clearly leaned toward the Ancient Tribe, but now they switched to the Stone Tribe, and it was settled without any dispute.
Seeing that Ye Zhangqing changed the elders' minds with just a simple sentence, Chi Rao's eyes lit up.
Looks like we still underestimated Ye Zhangqing's status among the Human Race.
For a moment, Chi Rao's gaze toward Ye Zhangqing grew hotter, and Ye Zhangqing couldn't help but shudder.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm scared."
