Chapter 665: Chapter 665: Zhong Shan\'s Alliance of Eleven Heaven-Realm Cultivators

Six tea tables were arranged in a circle, with each person sitting in front of a table, facing each other.

Ye Qingcheng sipped his tea, listening intently.

"Lord Ye, what do you think?" Zhong Shan asked with a smile after finishing his explanation.

Ye Qingcheng gently placed his cup down, staring at Zhong Shan with a serious expression.

"Lord Ye, what do you say? With this opportunity, if we don\'t strike against the Tian family now, when will we?" Xing Taidou urged.

"Fortune favors the bold; missing this chance will incur heavenly wrath!" Shen Xiu agreed, nodding towards Ye Qingcheng.

Yi Lan Que, watching from the side, found the situation intriguing. Zhong Shan was transparent in his actions, not hiding anything before attacking the Tian family. Yi Lan Que observed the mental maneuvers with keen interest.

Yi Lan Que also realized the brilliance behind Zhong Shan\'s earlier moves: the first step, ruining reputations, and the second step, isolating Xing Taidou and Shen Xiu. While it didn\'t make them friends, it made them useful in persuading Ye Qingcheng.

Ye Qingcheng, as a realm master, naturally had many considerations. If Zhong Shan had approached him directly, Ye Qingcheng\'s suspicion would have made immediate agreement unlikely. But with Xing Taidou and Shen Xiu as advocates, persuading Ye Qingcheng became much easier.

Ye Qingcheng glanced at Yi Lan Que and Yin Luo Yue before turning his gaze back to Zhong Shan.

"Zhong Shan, how did you enter the Underworld?" Ye Qingcheng asked instead of answering.

"That\'s my secret. Apologies," Zhong Shan replied with a smile.

"A secret? Heh, you\'re quite remarkable. Among the noted figures in the Longevity Realm and the Immortal Realm, you rank sixth," Ye Qingcheng said with a faint smile.

The Longevity Realm? The Immortal Realm? Clearly, Ye Qingcheng knew Zhong Shan understood their relationship, and thus didn\'t hide the connection.

Yi Lan Que, on the other hand, showed a slight reaction to the mention of the Immortal Realm and the Longevity Realm.

"Sixth? Lord Ye, you do hold me in high regard," Zhong Shan chuckled.

"Does it matter if I hold you in high regard or not?" Ye Qingcheng asked.

"It doesn\'t matter. I\'m just curious. After listening to me for so long, is that all you wanted to tell me?" Zhong Shan smiled.

"Of course not. I just don\'t believe you can find more allies," Ye Qingcheng shook his head.

"What if I do have allies?" Zhong Shan smiled.

"You mentioned that Yin Luo Yue would not join us in attacking the Tian family?" Ye Qingcheng squinted his eyes.

"That\'s right. I promised Yin Luo Yue that he wouldn\'t be involved in attacking the Tian family," Zhong Shan said, taking another sip of tea.

"Then what about your people?" Ye Qingcheng asked seriously.

"My people? As long as you agree, Lord Ye, my people will show themselves. Zhong Shan never speaks empty words," Zhong Shan said, putting down his cup.

Ye Qingcheng took another deep look at Zhong Shan. For the first time, he felt that he couldn\'t see through him.

"How many people do you have?" Ye Qingcheng asked.

"How many do you have?" Zhong Shan countered.

"Five Heaven-Realm cultivators," Ye Qingcheng said seriously.

Five Heaven-Realm cultivators: Shen Xiu, Xing Taidou, the old eunuch, Ye Qingcheng, and another strong Immortal Realm expert. Ye Qingcheng wasn\'t lying because there was no point in lying at this moment. Moreover, stating this number emphasized Ye Qingcheng\'s strength.

Zhong Shan fell silent for a moment.

"Very well. Let me show you my allies," Zhong Shan finally said, a confident smile playing on his lips.

Zhong Shan gestured, and from the shadows, figures began to emerge. Eleven individuals, their auras unmistakably those of Heaven-Realm cultivators, stepped into the light. The atmosphere grew tense as they stood beside Zhong Shan, their presence undeniable.

Ye Qingcheng, Xing Taidou, Shen Xiu, and the old eunuch watched in stunned silence.

"Eleven Heaven-Realm cultivators?" Ye Qingcheng whispered, his disbelief evident.

"Yes. These are my allies. Together, we can bring down the Tian family," Zhong Shan declared.

Yi Lan Que and Yin Luo Yue exchanged glances, both impressed by Zhong Shan\'s ability to gather such formidable allies.

"Well, Lord Ye, shall we?" Zhong Shan asked, his confidence unwavering.

Ye Qingcheng stared at Zhong Shan for a long moment before finally nodding. "Very well, Zhong Shan. We will join forces to bring down the Tian family."

With that agreement, the alliance was forged, and the first steps towards their shared goal were taken.

"What\'s this? You have so many of them?" Ye Qingcheng sneered.

Zhong Shan, who had been silent, suddenly smiled and looked up at Ye Qingcheng. "Just right, I have one more than you," he said.

Upon hearing Zhong Shan\'s words, Ye Qingcheng\'s pupils contracted, Shenxiu and Xing Taidou both raised their eyebrows. Who is this Zhong Shan? So mysterious? He can find six experts at the Heaven Extreme Realm? How is that possible? Is he serious? Doesn\'t that mean he can storm the Tian family on his own? Is he bragging?

Yi Lanque looked at Zhong Shan with astonishment once more, his eyes filled with incredulity. Yi Lanque had already regarded Zhong Shan highly, but over the past few days, every strategy Zhong Shan devised made Yi Lanque regard him even more highly. But now, this was even more exaggerated. Does he have six Heaven Extreme Realm experts as his backup?

Only Yin Luori was frantically drinking tea on the side. This Zhong Shan\'s skill of making something out of nothing was extraordinary, and his ability to brag without blushing was equally impressive. Heaven Extreme Realm experts? You can find six of them? Are they like cabbages in the market?

"One more? Hahaha, how many Heaven Extreme Realm experts are there in the entire Netherworld? You can find six? Are you kidding me?" Ye Qingcheng said incredulously.

"Of course not. As long as Master Ye agrees, my six Heaven Extreme Realm experts will make themselves known," Zhong Shan remained calm and composed, sipping his tea leisurely.

Ye Qingcheng stared at Zhong Shan, eyes full of suspicion. Should he believe him? What exactly is Zhong Shan planning?

"Master Ye, what\'s there to hesitate about? If Zhong Shan is lying, we can just forget about it. But if he\'s telling the truth, wouldn\'t that make eleven Heaven Extreme Realm experts? With eleven Heaven Extreme Realm experts attacking the Tian family together, what do you have to worry about?" Shenxiu urged.

"That\'s right, Master Ye. Are you afraid at this point?" Xing Taidou said with a frown.

Driven by their eagerness to strike against the Tian family, both Shenxiu and Xing Taidou didn\'t consider the veracity of Zhong Shan\'s words. They just wanted Ye Qingcheng to agree.

Ye Qingcheng ignored the two of them and continued to stare at Zhong Shan, taking a deep look before saying, "Fine, show me your assets, and I will agree!"

"Clang!"

Zhong Shan\'s teacup fell heavily onto the table.

"Good, Master Ye, you are decisive and trustworthy. Zhong Shan admires you. In that case, Zhong Shan will show you," Zhong Shan said with a smile.

Everyone looked at Zhong Shan, each with different emotions. Ye Qingcheng was solemn, Shenxiu and Xing Taidou were expectant, Yi Lanque was curious, and Yin Luori was sweating profusely. This time, Zhong Shan\'s bluff might be called.

Zhong Shan flipped his hand and took out a memory crystal, tossing it to Ye Qingcheng.

Ye Qingcheng caught it with a peculiar look at Zhong Shan. "What\'s this?"

"Watch it first," Zhong Shan replied.

After speaking, Zhong Shan leisurely sipped his tea again.

With doubts, Ye Qingcheng activated the crystal with a spell, projecting its contents for everyone to see.

The crystal showed the scene at the Yellow Springs Road, where Xuanyuan battled six celestial beings.

Xuanyuan, alone, fought against six Earth Immortals, even killing one on the spot!

The power of the Genesis Divine Palace was fully displayed, its might overwhelming, with a holy body and a creator\'s presence, splitting into three parts, incredibly formidable.

The six Earth Immortals were strong, but they encountered Xuanyuan, a freak of nature. Helplessly, they were defeated and fled.

After watching the memory crystal, everyone let out a long breath. Such a grand battle at the Yellow Springs Road, they had missed it. But seeing the memory crystal somewhat compensated for that. The entire battle was dazzling, except for the minor disappointment of the fake "Reincarnation Jade Talisman" used by one of the Earth Immortals, adding a touch of irony to the splendid fight.

"How about it?" Zhong Shan smiled.

"What do you mean \'how about it\'?" Ye Qingcheng frowned.

"What do you think of these individuals?" Zhong Shan smiled.

Everyone looked at Zhong Shan strangely, as if he were a fool. Did he actually think that Xuanyuan and the remaining five Earth Immortals would join forces to destroy the Tian family?

"The Genesis Divine Palace and the Tian family may not be familiar with each other, but they certainly aren\'t enemies," Ye Qingcheng said solemnly.

"I\'m referring to the five Earth Immortals," Zhong Shan clarified.

"Oh?"

"As long as Master Ye agrees, the five Earth Immortals will naturally join us in dealing with the Tian family!" Zhong Shan said confidently.

"Oh? And how will you convince the five Earth Immortals?" Ye Qingcheng clearly did not believe him.

"By threats and incentives," Zhong Shan replied.

"Threats? Incentives?"

"Threats are simple! Ao Lie, who was once the dragon of this minor world, naturally knows about the Tian family\'s existence. If we give this memory crystal to the Tian family, the five Earth Immortals will be hunted down by them, making their mission even more difficult. You must understand that those from the Grand World in this minor world not only have their strength restricted but also their lifespan!"

"Reversing time?" Shenxiu\'s eyes lit up.

"Exactly, reversing time. So, they don\'t want to drag this out for too long. They need to find a breakthrough!" Zhong Shan smiled.

"And the incentives?" Ye Qingcheng asked.

"There are three incentives. First, as long as you promise that after they help us destroy the Tian family, you will help Ao Lie hold off Xuanyuan and let them enter the Yang Realm!"

"Yes, they will definitely agree!" Xing Taidou immediately said.

"The second incentive, the Killing Immortal Sword can come down from the Yang Realm, so you must have a way to go back up. As long as Master Ye promises, even if Xuanyuan can\'t be dealt with, you can still send them to the Yang Realm. After all, Ao Lie knows about the Killing Immortal Sword in the Yang Realm!"

"Yes, yes, Master Ye, whether you send them or not, just promise them. They have no other choice!"

"Mm, and what\'s the third point?"

"The third point? Heh, the greater the incentive, the better. This requires Xing Taidou\'s cooperation," Zhong Shan looked at Xing Taidou.

"Uh?"

"Why is the Tian family chasing you, Xing Taidou? Because of the \'Earth Book.\' This minor world has an Earth Book, the Great Yan Dynasty was destroyed, and the two Wu clans were also exterminated. Xing Taidou was hunted by the Tian family and almost killed. Why? To silence you, because the \'Earth Book\' is in the Tian family\'s hands!" Zhong Shan explained.

After Zhong Shan finished speaking, everyone took a deep breath. This was a blatant lie! This was framing the Tian family! But the framing was so perfect, so enticing. Destroying the Tian family not only meant they could go to the Yang Realm but also possibly obtain the Earth Book. Only a fool wouldn\'t do it! Besides, with ten Heaven Extreme Realm experts, plus the one Zhong Shan hadn\'t mentioned, making eleven Heaven Extreme Realm experts, how could they not destroy the Tian family?

Ye Qingcheng looked deeply at Zhong Shan.

"Can you guarantee success?" Ye Qingcheng stared at Zhong Shan.

"Heh, I said, this isn\'t a one-man effort. It requires everyone\'s cooperation. As for negotiating with the five Earth Immortals, that\'s even easier. Yin Supreme was the previous Tiger Supreme of the Yang Realm, and Ao Lie was the previous Dragon Supreme. They are peers and know each other, making the negotiations much more convenient!" Zhong Shan smiled.

"There are ten Heaven Extreme Realm experts already. What about the eleventh?" Ye Qingcheng asked.
