Wang Long said, "Elder Man Qianyi is absolutely right! But what is wrong with what I am doing? The elder mentioned that this is a win-win situation for Dragon City, yet did not consider that it is the same for the Serpent Demon Clan!"
"If it weren't for this command, the Serpent Demon Clan would likely continue to live in darkness. By controlling Southern State, we would become the local overlord, akin to a regional governor! No one would dare to invade lightly; that is one point. Secondly, the Human Emperor's vanguard general was killed in the battle at Serpent Demon Mountain Valley, and they lost the Mystic Heaven Sect's treasure, the Mysterious Heaven's Dark Wheel. Do you think the Human Emperor or the so-called Marquis will let the Serpent Clan off? The first step in their attack on the Kyushu Islands will likely be to seek revenge here!"
"Indeed! With the Eight Fiend Ancestor Python guarding this place and over ten thousand serpent warriors occupying advantageous terrain; however, you also understand that this Valley is easy to attack but hard to defend. If the Human Emperor's army surrounds this place, there will be no escape!"
"By occupying Southern State, we can deploy our forces without having to wait passively in the Valley for others to attack. The walls of Southern State are tall and sturdy; how does this compare?"
After hearing these words, Man Qianyi fell into deep thought and nodded with a smile.
Du Yinping then said solemnly, "If that's the case, it does seem beneficial for both sides. However... can we truly rely on the Dragon Head's command at this moment? Is the appointment of the Southern State Dragon Head really that simple? Especially considering it is with a clan that has been an enemy of Dragon City?"
Wang Long smiled and replied, "Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures! The elders of Dragon City are not unreasonable people who stir up trouble without understanding! They surely won't obstruct... As for your concerns about Dragon City's authority, I actually have an opposite view."
"Indeed, Dragon City's influence and control are not what they used to be; however, perhaps this is an excellent opportunity for Dragon City to re-establish its authority! As long as we act decisively against the Southern State Dragon Head, making an example out of him, and then sending various elders from Dragon City into major state capitals with both grace and power, it should yield results... What do you think?"
As everyone began to voice their doubts, Wang Long addressed each concern effectively while continuously presenting enticing proposals. With Jiang Xue's approval, everyone’s thoughts began to stabilize.
Jiang Xue smiled slightly at Wang Long, prompting him to stand up abruptly and declare, "Everyone, during this critical time of survival, we cannot hesitate any longer! United we benefit; divided we perish! We have a common enemy; forming an alliance is our only way out!"
Man Qianyi looked around and saw everyone nodding at him before standing up and saying with a smile, "Alright! In that case, we Serpent Demon Clan will trust Dragon City once!"
Wang Long was overjoyed and immediately said, "There’s no time to waste; we must act decisively! Today, I will represent Dragon City and sign an alliance agreement with all of you to announce this matter to the world!"
"Today?!" Man Qianyi was somewhat surprised and frowned slightly.
"What’s wrong? Does the elder have any questions?"
Man Qianyi smiled and said, "I have an idea... Let’s hold off on releasing any news for now until my Serpent Demon Clan Army has finished regrouping. Then we can launch a surprise attack on the leaderless Southern State City! At the same time, the Dragon Head can secretly instruct all elders from Dragon City to infiltrate other state capitals. When the time comes, we can slay the Dragon Head above Southern State City, ally with the Serpent Clan, replace the city lord, and command the world! This will surely shake the entire realm and bring Kyushu Islands back under our control!"
Wang Long pondered for a moment and sighed, "Experience speaks volumes! What the Elder said is indeed true!" He turned to Zhang Mingyi and said, "Elder Mingyi, inform the other elders to act in secret. This matter is entrusted to you! Bring along Li Xinghe and Liu Chengyan; this is urgent, and there must be no delays or mistakes!"
Zhang Mingyi quickly replied, "Understood!"
Wang Long asked, "May I ask, Elder, when can we mobilize our forces? When can we breach Southern State City?"
"In three days! The city will surely fall!" Man Qianyi replied confidently. At this moment, Southern State was like a dragon without a leader, and its elite soldiers had suffered heavy losses, making it impossible for them to contend with the Serpent Demon Clan.
"Good... then Elder Mingyi, after three days, notify all the elders to act simultaneously. We must apply both kindness and severity to control the key figures in all other states! If necessary, we may resort to any means, even using force!"
"Yes!"
Zhang Mingyi, Li Xinghe, and Liu Chengyan listened and all agreed before departing towards Dragon City.
Wang Long smiled and took out the prepared Scroll of Rebirth from his pocket, handing it to Jiang Xue. He said softly, "This is the main text of the Scroll of Rebirth! From now on, once the elders receive permission from the clan leader, they may cultivate it on their own!"
"The Serpent Demon Clan has obtained this Heavenly Book known as the Scroll of Rebirth! It mostly pertains to vitality and healing; thus, those practicing the Wood Dragon Technique are numerous! However, there are not many true paths for cultivation..."
He then took out another scroll and said, "This is our Dragon City's Dragon Vein Scroll! It discusses the principles of cultivating the Nine Dragon Veins and can be considered the foundation of all Dragon Techniques in the world! To show my sincerity, I will also gift it to the Serpent Demon Clan!"
After saying this, he handed over that scroll as well. Jiang Xue smiled slightly and accepted it.
Even Du Yinping, witnessing him giving away such precious treasures without hesitation, had nothing more to say. He was genuinely convinced and lowered his head.
Man Qianyi sighed, "The Serpent Demon Clan lacks this Martial Arts scroll; hence their cultivation faces numerous difficulties. Although there are various cultivation methods passed down from ancestors, they always have flaws! The clan leader's willingness to easily give away such treasures shows great sincerity!"
Wang Long replied with a smile, "Since we are allies, there is no need for such formality!"
"Good! The Dragon Lord is indeed straightforward! Since that's the case, the matter of the Loyal One cannot be delayed! Leave the attack on the Southern State Capital to me! Three days later, I invite the Clan Leader and the Dragon Lord to ascend the City Wall of Southern State together and issue commands to the world!"
Everyone performed their duties, responding in unison, and then took their seats to withdraw.
In an instant, the entire Main Tent was empty, leaving only Wang Long and Jiang Xue.
Wang Long looked at Man Qianyi, who had just exited with a smile that was quite peculiar, and couldn't help but chuckle as he turned his gaze to Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue's face flushed slightly, yet she maintained an air of authority befitting a clan leader. She spoke softly, "The Dragon Lord has just taken office and yet does not consider properly organizing Dragon City. He has rushed to our Serpent Demon Clan's base so quickly; it seems he is determined to form an alliance!"
Wang Long smiled, "Indeed. However, while forming an alliance is important, I came here so quickly for another matter that is also quite urgent..."
"What is it?" Jiang Xue asked knowingly, her blush becoming more pronounced.
Wang Long reached out and firmly held Jiang Xue's small hand, gently kissing it before looking up with a smile and asking, "What do you think?"
The atmosphere in the Main Tent suddenly shifted from its earlier heaviness and intensity to one that was increasingly romantic.
