Chapter 1561: He's quite good at stirring up trouble

Inside Dao Yi Shengdi, Ye Zhangqing wasn't the least bit worried about the safety of the two elders; with that life-saving trump card of his, within Haotu Shijie there was hardly anyone who could threaten the two elders.

Ye Zhangqing continued to live his carefree little life each day as before.

Especially after finishing the affairs of the previous demon race war, he had become completely idle.

As for such a life, he was quite satisfied.

However, Yun Xiantai has recently been getting a headache, constantly discussing the matter of the Human Emperor Palace with the three brothers of the Dongfang family.

Although when he initially slew the Human Emperor Palace's envoy, Yun Xiantai hesitated not at all.

Yet he did not therefore look down on this matter in his heart; moreover, the three Dongfang brothers had sought him out more than once, telling him all sorts of things about the Human Emperor Palace.

Toward foreign races, the Human Emperor Palace absolutely weighs pros and cons, hesitates repeatedly before acting, and will not lightly go to war with those powerful races.

But when dealing with forces within the human race, the Human Emperor Palace launches a heavy-handed strike.

Not a few human race forces have been wiped out by the Human Emperor Palace, among them not lacking Emperor Sovereign-level experts.

This is basically a case of internal bullying; it would be strange if the Human Emperor Palace could just let it go after Yun Xiantai killed their envoy this time.

Furthermore, there's also the demon race, with which there is a deep-seated grudge, leaving basically no possibility of reconciliation.

Therefore, the three Dongfang brothers have continually urged Yun Xiantai to make plans early.

After all, the Dongfang family is now bound up with Haotu Shijie; if Haotu Shijie were to collapse, the Dongfang family would certainly not fare well.

Well, seeing the three Dongfang brothers come looking for him again, Yun Xiantai muttered somewhat speechlessly.

"I know what you want to say, but do you have any way?"

"Yun Ancestor, we................"

Hearing that, Dongfang Hong paused; what could they do, the other side's strength just sits there.

However, after hesitating a bit, Dongfang Hong still steeled himself and said.

"Looking over the whole Haotu Shijie, the forces or races that can match the Human Emperor Palace and the demon race are only a few; I think we need to find an outside ally."

"An outside ally? Yes, like the Divine Race, the Nine Nether Realm, and Yongye—such allies would be enough to counter the Human Emperor Palace and the demon race."

Huh???

Hearing Dongfang Hong's words, Yun Xiantai twitched the corner of his mouth; saying that is tantamount to saying nothing.

Doesn't he know this is the simplest method? Win over a few allies.

But the problem is, what basis do they have to agree to you; you think these powerful forces can be tied together with just a word from you.

He looked at the three Dongfang brothers with a speechless expression and asked.

"Then what do you say we should do?"

Faced with Yun Xiantai's question, the three Dongfang brothers were momentarily stunned, exchanged a glance, and then all shook their heads.

"We don't know either."

"I............ heh............"

Yun Xiantai was directly amused; are you guys just here to fire off blanks? If you don't know what to do, then just spout nonsense.

Seeing Yun Xiantai like that, the three brothers' old faces turned red, and they sheepishly said.

"So this isn't something we should all discuss together?"

"Then come on, everyone sit down, let's discuss."

He invited the three brothers to sit down and personally poured them a cup of tea; Yun Xiantai said speechlessly.

How are we supposed to discuss this? Do you think winning over an ally is that easy?

Moreover, it has to be an ally of the same tier as the Human Emperor Palace and the demon race.

Put simply, that ally at least needs to have an Ancestor Realm expert holding the fort.

And in Zhu Tian Wan Jie, any world or power possessing an Ancestor Realm expert is undoubtedly among the topmost existences of Zhu Tian Wan Jie.

With such formidable strength, why would they join forces with you?

Furthermore, when facing the Human Emperor Palace and the demon race, the other side also has to consider whether it's worth it.

Also, what price can Haotu Shijie offer?

If the offer is too low, they'll surely refuse; if it's too high, they might not be able to afford it.

Even if they could afford it, Yun Xiantai would feel reluctant in his heart to give away such heaps of resources—what would Haotu Shijie use then?

"Yun Ancestor, we have no choice but to think of a way—if you don't plan ahead, you'll surely face near-term worries; if we wait for the Human Emperor Palace and the demon race to come knocking, it'll be too late to think of a solution then."

"Leaving other things aside, we simply can't handle an Ancestor Realm expert."

Hearing the three's words, Yun Xiantai also knew they made sense, but can this be solved by just saying a couple of sentences? If you're capable, give this old man an Ancestor Realm.

He looked at the three with a helpless expression.

"Then why don't you come up with a feasible plan?"

"This............ many hands make light work; if not, shall we brainstorm together?"

"I￥……%￥%……￥%……

Yun Xiantai felt an urge to curse; saying that is tantamount to saying nothing.

However, with no other options at present, Yun Xiantai could only nod and agree.

At the same time, he summoned all the Peak Masters and Elders of Dao Yi Shengdi to discuss the matter together.

Thus, the three Dongfang brothers finally felt somewhat relieved, took their leave, and departed.

Leaving Yun Xiantai's place, Dongfang Huang let out a helpless sigh.

"Haotu Shijie has great potential, but it's also too prone to causing trouble."

"In Zhu Tian Wan Jie, the worlds or powers with an Ancestor Realm expert holding the fort are only a few; yet Haotu Shijie has managed to offend two of them all at once."

Haotu Shijie's talent for stirring up trouble is indeed not small; however, regarding this, the eldest brother of the Dongfang family spoke up.

"Its trouble-making ability is no joke, but its growth speed is also fast."

Moreover, the reason Haotu Shijie can grow so quickly is also inseparable from its troublemaking ability.

I have a feeling that as long as we safely get through this time, and give Haotu Shijie a little more time, we will definitely be able to enter the first echelon of Zhu Tian Wan Jie.

The eldest brother of the Dongfang Family still thinks highly of Haotu Shijie, but the problem is whether we can get through this time.

Just one demon tribe is already a headache, and we don't know when that demon ancestor will make a move; if it really comes to the demon ancestor acting at the Ancestor Realm, what do they Haotu Shijie have to fight with?

Even the highest cultivation of Yun Xiantai is only Emperor Sovereign Great Accomplishment, and there is still an unknown distance to the Ancestor Realm.

Even though Qiu Baiyi and the others have already gone to get the Ancient Emperor Pattern Pill, and with the help of that pill, Yun Xiantai has truly achieved Emperor Sovereign Realm Perfection.

But this does not mean Yun Xiantai can definitely enter the Ancestor Realm.

Without the Ancestor Realm, who will deal with the demon tribe and the Human Emperor Palace's founding ancestor?

Yun Xiantai also knows the importance of the matter, so over the next few days, he invites all the Peak Masters and Elders to the main hall to discuss each day.

Even Ye Zhangqing, who has been secluded and not coming out, was summoned by Yun Xiantai.

That day, just after finishing lunch, Bai Hua Xianzi went to find Ye Zhangqing and said.

"Husband, the Shīzūn has ordered us to go to the main hall to discuss affairs."

"Again?"

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing's face immediately sank; they have been holding meetings for three days straight, yet nobody could come up with a feasible plan.

We've discussed so many times, what more is there to discuss? Who has a feasible plan? Nobody at all.

Seeing Ye Zhangqing's unhappy expression, Bai Hua Xianzi gave a gentle smile and said.

"Alright, husband, the Shīzūn also bears great pressure; after we finish the meeting and return, I'll give you a reward."
