Chapter 341: 192: Seeking Help from Dan Ding _2

Unless one can take out the entire Yuzhang Prefecture, a mere fiefdom reward from the imperial court would be of no interest to them.”

At this point, Yan Wangqiu paused and said sincerely to Lu Yuan, “So, even in the best-case scenario, we can only unite with the Nine River Sword Sect, having three grandmasters and a force of five hundred thousand.

The four grandmasters and a million-strong force you envisioned are fundamentally impossible to achieve.

On the other hand, even if the imperial court is opposed to us, they can have at least seven grandmasters.

In terms of strength, they are still much stronger than us.”

To prevent his newfound allies from getting overly arrogant and making mistakes, Yan Wangqiu had no choice but to pour a bucket of cold water.

As a result of this cold water, Lu Yuan also calmed down quite a bit.

His previous pride and arrogance, which had emerged from breaking through Innate, were immediately washed away, and he became sober.

“Thank you Sect Master Yan for the wake-up call.”

Lu Yuan bowed to Yan Wangqiu, thanking him for the reminder.

“No need for that.”

Seeing that Lu Yuan had come to his senses, Yan Wangqiu couldn’t help but smile and stroked his beard, “You and I are now one; we shall share honors and disgrace together. This old man is still hoping that Grandmaster Lu can lead me in occupying a prefecture and establishing a kingdom.”

To be honest, even though he was fully aware of the strong strength on the imperial court’s side, Yan Wangqiu still had high hopes for Lu Yuan.

Not to mention his personal strength as an Inborn Grandmaster, which is a deterrent anywhere he goes.

More importantly, it was Lu Yuan’s ability to lead troops.

Traveling back and forth thousands of miles with Lu Yuan, Yan Wangqiu had witnessed firsthand how he defeated a hundred thousand Miao People and reclaimed three prefectures.

Not only him, but Lu Yuan’s eldest disciple under his command was also equally adept at commanding troops and fighting wars.

Leading a ragtag army, yet still able to fight back and forth with the Eighty Thousand Army of the Five Poisons Sect, and eventually defeating them.

Being good at using troops, with many capable generals under his command, and having over a hundred thousand soldiers and horses.

In truth, the threat Lu Yuan poses to the imperial court is much more significant than that of the Nanhai Sect with their two to three hundred thousand men.”

It is precisely because he has seen this clearly that Yan Wangqiu has so much confidence in Lu Yuan.

With such a capable ally by his side and the imperial court being heavily pressured by the Zhou People’s military force, what difference does it make if the ten grandmasters of the imperial court are assembled?

If they were forced to, the two of them could join forces with the Zhou People. What could the imperial court do then?

With this last resort in place, Yan Wangqiu still had some confidence.

So, as long as Grandmaster Lu could remain steady, the proposal from the other party could indeed be done.

Lu Yuan did not realize that in Yan Wangqiu’s heart, he was of such weight and value.

But now that he had calmed down, he had once again regained his steady character.

After pondering over it in his heart, Lu Yuan said to Yan Wangqiu, “I never imagined that the situation in Jianghu would be so complicated. With this in mind, I need to make some adjustments to my original plans.

Sect Master Yan, what is your relationship with the Nine River Sword Sect?”

Yan Wangqiu stroked his beard and said, “Both our sects are located near the sea, and in the past, we had quite a few maritime trade transactions, so I would say our relationship is pretty good.”

Lu Yuan nodded, “In that case, regardless of whether the Nine River Sword Sect will join the alliance of the ten grandmasters, please ask Sect Master Yan to send someone to contact them, and try to persuade them to join my alliance.

Jian’an Prefecture is impoverished, and I suppose the Nine River Sword Sect is not content to be stuck here, is it not?

Would it not be better for them to join the alliance and be granted a large prefecture as a fiefdom in the future than to be stuck in Jian’an Prefecture?”

Yan Wangqiu thought about it and said, “I can do this, but I can’t guarantee success. The Nine River Sword Sect is not like us; with a worry-free inheritance within the sect, they may not be willing to take risks.”

Lu Yuan said, “Whether it can be done or not, it’s always right to try.” After finishing, he said, “Since the imperial court’s strength is stronger than we thought, now is not the time to confront them openly.

In that case, Sect Master Yan, there should still be half a year before the ten grandmasters of the imperial court gather.

Take advantage of this time for us each to build up more strength and increase our bargaining chips in negotiations.

Sect Master Yan can accumulate arms and men in South Sea Prefecture, and I will take this opportunity to recruit more soldiers as well.

Strive to gather more strength by the time we lay our cards on the table.”

Since they couldn’t rely on others now to achieve their ambitions, they had no choice but to strengthen themselves.

So before laying their cards on the table, having more troops would be the best way to increase their strength at this time.

“This is a prudent plan.”

Yan Wangqiu smiled and said, “If we prepare half a year in advance, it will be easy for us to gather an army of three hundred thousand.”

Hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded and said, “Alright, by then, I will also raise an army of two hundred thousand to respond.”

After saying that, he stretched out his hand, Yan Wangqiu also stretched out his, and the two of them struck a deal with a handshake.

After discussing the plan to deal with the imperial court with Yan Wanqiu, both sides began to take separate actions.

Yan Wanqiu dispatched his disciples on secret missions to return to the Nanhai Sect, and began to contact the sects and powerful families in various parts of Lingnan that had good relationships with them, making some preparations in advance under various names.

Meanwhile, the Nanhai Sect also began to infiltrate various prefectures and counties in Lingnan, preparing to seize cities and create momentum once a conflict with the imperial court occurred.

As for Yan Wangqiu himself, he secretly set out for Jian’an Prefecture, intending to visit the Nine River Sword Sect.

With Lu Yuan breaking through his Innate limits, his ability to protect himself had also greatly increased.
