Chapter 77 The Alliance of Mutual Enemies
An alliance? Forming an alliance in the Black Corner region?
Everyone in the Black Corner Region knows what kind of people they are. They're ruthless individuals who drink and joke around by day, but can wipe out an entire family by night. No one is willing to submit to anyone else; fighting, ruthlessness, and deception are their traditions. Massacring entire cities, exterminating entire clans, and wiping out entire families are commonplace for them. Let alone the Canaan Academy's enforcement team, which of you here hasn't had the blood of someone from another faction on your hands?
If someone else had said such a thing, the Bone Man would have taken it as a joke, and after having his fun, he would have personally taken out the skull of the person who said it and made it into a clown mask.
But today is different. Mo Tianxing, as a Dou Zong, is making this demand. He will certainly not be like in the past, where everyone swears an oath of blood today to do a big heist, and then throws the so-called alliance to the back of their minds tomorrow.
"This guy is disgusting. He wants to swallow half of the Black Corner Region's power in one gulp?" the bone-faced man sneered in his heart. "Even a Dou Zong wouldn't be able to digest my Ten Thousand Bone Forest so easily."
Apart from Lian Cheng, who only possessed the strength of a four-star Dou Huang, all the Dou Huangs present shared the same thoughts as the Bone-Faced Man.
Looking directly into the eyes of each Dou Huang, Mo Tianxing revealed a meaningful smile.
You're all ancient foxes, do you think you can play some kind of ghost story with me?
Mo Tianxing then warmly invited all the Dou Huangs present to stay in Fengcheng, and eagerly stated that, in order to set an example, the Black Emperor Sect would be the first to move in. After saying this, he swept his sharp gaze over each Dou Huang, clearly intending to intimidate them with his power.
Han Feng, sitting below the podium, watched the Mo family father and son performing excitedly on stage, his mask concealing his vicious smile.
Things progressed even more smoothly than he had imagined. As expected, Mo Tianxing couldn't contain his temper and not only wanted to sit on the throne of the alliance leader, but also wanted to detain the so-called allies!
How eccentric their actions are! Are the heroes just going to stand by and do as they please?
The man in the black cloak, the bone-faced man, and the leader of the Earth Flame Sect all leaned back in their chairs. Seeing their leader's impatience, his guards immediately began to cheer and make a ruckus. In an instant, the entire hall was filled with noise and commotion, so loud that Mo Tianxing on the stage frowned.
He put his hands behind his back and waved at Mo Ya.
"Quiet down, do you even have a chance to speak?!"
Upon receiving Mo Tianxing's order, Mo Ya immediately amplified his battle qi and roared a reprimand. His voice was as loud as thunder, drowning out the shouts of the guards, but it did not stop them.
Seeing that the effect was not good, Mo Ya decisively decided to upgrade his methods. He revealed a bloodthirsty smile, drew the sharp blade slung across his waist and threw it out!
The people of our Black Corner Region are not good with words; they're really not good at maintaining order with words. They just love to use their hands, and when they do, they bring out knives.
"Ding!"
With a crisp sound, the sharp blade whistled past, drawing a dazzling arc, like a white rainbow piercing the sun.
"Bone hands!"
Each family's guards were carefully selected, loyal men with great potential to become future pillars of society. They were also willing to risk their lives for their leader, even sacrificing their own bodies to buy time. Therefore, the Bone-Faced Man naturally wouldn't allow him to attack his subordinates. With a low shout, a hand the size of a human face materialized in mid-air, composed entirely of white bones, devoid of any flesh.
With a speed so fast it left afterimages, the skeletal hand grabbed the blade, easily snapped it in two, and then hovered above the heads of the people in the Ten Thousand Bone Forest, seemingly as a provocation.
"Sect Leader Mo, although the Black Emperor Sect is indeed stronger, isn't it inappropriate to bully others like this?"
The bone-faced man spoke coldly, his voice also amplified by his battle aura, yet it easily quelled the commotion on the field.
Seeing this, Mo Ya's face immediately darkened. He said loudly, "Inappropriate? Your Ten Thousand Bone Forest is not disciplining its subordinates and is making a ruckus in the meeting hall. That's inappropriate! The Alliance Leader is speaking on the stage, and you are talking below. Isn't that showing a great disrespect to the Alliance Leader?"
Beneath the bone mask, a pair of eyes filled with mockery suddenly widened. The bone-masked man sneered, "Alliance Leader? What Alliance Leader? It's not even a question yet, and you've already proclaimed yourself Alliance Leader, ta-da! Should I call you Young Alliance Leader then? Young Master Mo!"
"Why don't we just rename your Black Emperor Sect to Black Emperor Alliance? I'm not playing this childish game anymore, let's go!" The bone-faced man flicked his sleeves and was about to lead his troops away.
"dare!"
The Black Emperor Clan's guards, clad in silver armor and helmets, were stationed at the gate. Upon seeing someone attempting to leave, they shouted in unison and pointed their spears at the bone-masked man.
"Sect Leader Mo, what is the meaning of this?" the bone-faced man asked coldly.
Mo Tianxing smiled and said, "It's an alliance meeting, so if there's anything we're unhappy about, we can discuss it behind closed doors. But if you dare to suggest withdrawing, that would be disrespecting me..."
"Today I'm not going to give you any face! Don't think that just because you've become a Dou Zong you can rule the Black Corner Region. If you want to keep me here, you'll have to see if you're qualified!" The bone-faced man loudly interrupted Mo Tianxing, shouting to the other three families, "What kind of alliance is this! Everyone, this Mo guy is clearly trying to swallow up our forces. If we don't rise up now, we'll really become meat on someone else's plate!"
"Does everyone here just wait to be completely devoured by the Black Emperor Sect?"
"Ahem, Sect Master Mo. Although the people of Ten Thousand Bones Forest may not be very bright and their words may be harsh, their reasoning is indeed sound." Unexpectedly, the black-cloaked figure from Black Skull Tomb was the first to step forward and respond to the bone-masked man's call.
It was as if they weren't the ones fighting to the death in Twilight City and the Forest of Ten Thousand Bones.
Mo Tianxing smiled and looked at the second person who spoke, without interrupting him.
Seeing that Mo Tianxing didn't object, the man in the black cloak breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "After all, we are all heads of our families. It's a bit inappropriate for us to just move into Maple City like this. Putting aside other things, if something happens at home, our wives will have to come to Mr. Han Feng's territory to find someone, wouldn't that be... ah?"
Everyone present burst into laughter, and even Mo Tianxing laughed along.
"I see, everyone has misunderstood." After a burst of laughter, Mo Tianxing continued, "The reason we invited everyone here to stay in Maple City is to ensure that this alliance is truly implemented, so that if any side is attacked, everyone can react quickly. How about this, my Black Emperor Sect will send its young sect leader here, and each family should also send an important figure."
The expressions on everyone's faces softened considerably, and even the bone-faced man who had led the disturbance stopped his high-speed energy circulation and relaxed a bit.
"Clap clap clap!"
Suddenly, crisp applause rang out in the meeting hall. Someone had silently entered and was applauding Mo Tianxing, who was now taking the opportunity to back down.
"Hehe, Sect Leader Mo has made a shrewd deal. So, what if someone were to directly attack Maple City?"
