Chapter 143: Alliance?

After reaching the base of the mountain, Xuan Hao informed Elder Song about what had happened as he guided Shu Yao towards? a secluded pavilion located a short distance away from the Zu Fei's pavilion.

Arriving in front of the pavilion, Xuan Hao and Shu Yao both entered as neither said anything along the way.

The pavilion was spacious with a lot of room and was normally used by some of the Inner Elder's to hold a public lecture for the disciples that had no master or just wanted to come and join in, but due to the position of the pavilion and the fact that Zu Fei had started fighting with Shu Yao a few minutes ago. The pavilion was left completely empty, with not a single soul present.

All that was left in the pavilion, were a few notebooks that the disciples had forgotten in their hurry to leave the area around the Vice Sect Master Zu Fei's pavilion.

Xuan Hao thought that this was a great spot to discuss whatever the Sect Master had informed Shu Yao about outside of the obvious intent of using her as a deterrent to any of the other sects nearby that would want to take advantage of the Sect Master being in secluded cultivation.

"Let's finish it before the disciples returns to resume their lecture, we should have around two or so hours before that, but it should be more than enough time… Unless you have something a little more difficult to explain? If that is the case, we can go over to my pavilion and discuss it…" Sitting down on a pillow used by one of the disciples to sit on as they listened to the lecture, Xuan Hao waited for Shu Yao to begin talking.

"It's fine, it won't take too long to explain." Not minding the current environment or the fact that Xuan Hao had just taken her to a nearby pavilion used by the disciples and elders for public lectures, Shu Yao sat down on one of the pillows used by the disciples before focusing her attention back on to Xuan Hao.

"The main reason as to why Fengfeng called me over you should already know about, so I won't bother with it and instead talk about the other reason~" Smiling in a little less serious tone when she mentioned Feng Chen, Shu Yao went on to explain the second reason why Feng Chen had called her over.

The reason for it was something Xuan Hao had not expected in the slightest and did have something to do with the fact that the so-called church of the Plague God was trying to insert themselves into one of the Sky Empires Kingdoms.

Compared to the Azure Sky Kingdom and the Heavenly Sky Kingdom fighting with each other, the Sky Empire was way more focused on the fact that a foreign religion was trying to make its way into the Sky Empire. The already established religions had neatly split up the faith of the different kingdoms under the Sky Empire and had no plan to give up any of it.

The main church that spread through the Sky Empire's central territory itself, the church of the Sky God, was less than pleased with this new development and had already sent some of their main forces out to several different kingdoms affected to deal with it.

Among them, the kingdoms receiving the most attention from the churches were the strong kingdoms with one or more Domain Lord present in them and those having a significantly large population.

"But what does this have to do with you coming here…?" Still not really understanding what this had to do with Shu Yao coming to the Flying Sword Sect, Xuan Hao could not help himself from asking.

"Ah, I was getting to that! Due to the churches from the Sky Empire sending people out to deal with the invasion of the church of the Plague God, the Sky Empire has started to look for a way to gain back more control of their territory. So, while part of the churches main forces is not present to prevent them from doing anything, they have come up with a plan to create an alliance made out of the sects that exist inside their borders.

They have already contacted several large and prominent sects across their territory and invited them to join this new alliance compromised of all the different sects under the Sky Empire! Feng Chen and I have both gotten this invitation… Their main purpose is most likely to use this new alliance clash with the churches and weaken both sides, allowing the Sky Empire's Imperial Family to gain back complete control… After all, cultivators do not generate any faith after walking down the path of immortality and goes against their belief by going against the heavens that their gods created and exist in. Feng Chen asked for me to come here mostly so we could discuss this when he comes out of secluded cultivation." Explaining all this, Shu Yao leaned back a bit as she waited for Xuan Hao to digest the information.

"Why would you need to discuss this with the Sect Master…? And why inform me in the first place?" Xuan Hao still felt a bit confused as to why he was even informed by her about this instead of Feng Chen himself.

"Ah… Feng Chen just received the invitation after he went into secluded cultivation, so he asked me to inform you as I would be coming over anyways… The reason why I need to discuss it with your Sect Master is because both the Flying Sword Sect and Spring Flower Sect is weak compared to the other sects that will join the sect alliance, so we wanted to discuss the possibility of possibly merging the sects together.

The Seven Fates Sect and the Raging Flame Sect was also invited, I did try to ask the Seven Fates Sect about merging, but they did not want to give away control of their cultivation techniques or resources to outsides…

So, as both me and Fengfeng have known each other for quite some time and the Flying Sword Sect being… calm and less aggressive compared to the Raging Flame Sect, I thought it would be fitting to merge both sects together!" Listening to her explanation, Xuan Hao finally managed to understand the reason why Shu Yao had come to the Flying Sword Sect, outside of just helping protect the Flying Sword Sect from possible enemy attacks.

But…

The Spring Flower Sect had quite a few enemies outside the Heavenly Sky Kingdom, but also had a large number of sects that wanted to merge with them, some stronger than the Flying Sword Sect.

The reason for this was quite simple as the Spring Flower Sect was famous for their many experts in the field of formations and talismans. The talisman that Shu Yao had used earlier to supress Zu Fei was a great example of how strong their talismans were.

Finally, and to some most importantly, it was also a sect with only a few male disciples and were almost entirely compromised of female disciples…
