To be honest, Xu Wenchang was not a fool. His idea actually had a certain possibility, and the eventual reunification of the alliance would simply mean a change in leadership.
Xu Wenchang did not place much importance on the position of the leader; what he valued was the ability to protect the Huaxia Ethnicity.
If there were wise individuals, they would indeed accept and even make use of some of the alliance's manpower. However, in chaotic times, many leaders would not spare a single person from the Three Thousand.
For those who are not part of their own faction, how could they possibly treat them sincerely?
Thus, if Xu Wenchang's idea succeeded, it would indeed be a great joy, but the chances of success were zero, making it nothing more than a delusion.
Another point was that his idea had a somewhat stubborn flavor to it.
When the Emperor was born, the Emperor's power would be far stronger than that of the current alliance—unified and focused. That would be the true royal power leading the entire nation and its people.
At that time, there would be no need for an alliance to exist, nor should it continue to exist. Which King would allow a special faction to exist within their domain? Even if the wise ruler had reasons, loyal ministers within the Emperor's Path would surely oppose it strongly.
Take Lian Yun for example; with Lian Yun's temperament, he should be able to accommodate the alliance. However, Zhou Tong would absolutely not tolerate it. Even if he were to be executed by Lian Yun in the future, he would still strive to eliminate the alliance from within the court, regardless of whether its members were good or bad.
To be honest, when Lian Yun returned to Huaxia, he did feel a slight tremor beneath Kyoto and thought it might be the work of the Peerless Demon Master. Yet he welcomed it.
For him, this was quite bold on the part of the Peerless Demon Master. However, in Lian Yun's eyes, this was far better than an army invading and causing countless casualties in Kyoto.
As for the true intentions of the Peerless Demon Master, Lian Yun chose not to speculate but instead prepared defenses while remaining adaptable.
If Lian Yun had heard their discussions at Grandma's place, he would have considered their speculations. However, one thing he would definitely question was what to do about Evil Spirit City after reducing their strength.
It is important to note that Evil Spirits from Evil Spirit City did not have any so-called realm; they only possessed speed, strength, and defensive capabilities—none of which were limited by formations.
Of course, some might argue that the Peerless Demon Master could not possibly want to destroy Huaxia Ethnicity and would inevitably impose restrictions on Evil Spirit City.
But one simple fact remained: the Sima Family had been researching Evil Spirits for a long time. Even if there were limitations imposed in the future, it was very likely that the Sima Family could lead an army of Evil Spirits out.
At that moment, he was undoubtedly an invincible presence.
However, while Lian Yun had some suspicions, they were not as profound as those of Xu Wenchang and Grandma. He did not dwell on these thoughts for long; instead, he pressed forward. Upon reaching the Yunnan-Guizhou region, he began searching for the whereabouts of the three overlords.
Lian Yun was not afraid of the Peerless Demon Master's influence. Perhaps when the Peerless Monarch sent him his parents' remains, he understood that the Peerless Demon Master had no intention of harming him for the time being. Thus, he acted recklessly and flew at full speed.
Before long, he arrived at a dry riverbed and spotted three ghostly figures. To be precise, there was one tall ghostly figure attacking the ground with wild fury.
Fan Zeng and Yu Ji could only watch from a distance, feeling helpless.
The Overlord's head had been separated from his body for thousands of years. Although they had now fused, this had caused his mind to become chaotic. In this state of utter confusion, he instinctively avoided Fan Zeng and Yu Ji.
It was evident that the Western Chu Overlord was indeed a person of deep feelings and loyalty.
Lian Yun quickly approached and shouted from mid-air, "To live as a hero among men, to die as a ghostly champion; even now I think of Xiang Yu, unwilling to cross the river eastward. Is the Overlord still not awake?"
Lian Yun hoped to awaken the Overlord with sincere intent, but the result was counterproductive.
Fan Zeng and Yu Ji held deep feelings for the Overlord, but to Lian Yun, he was a stranger. As soon as Lian Yun drew near, the Overlord attacked without regard for Lian Yun's strength or realm.
Initially, Fan Zeng felt concerned when he saw Lian Yun approaching the Overlord with such a relaxed demeanor. However, after observing Lian Yun closely and realizing he could not gauge Lian Yun's strength, his worry subsided somewhat, replaced by shock.
One must understand that the Overlord truly lived up to his title; having just regained his head, his power surged to High Emperor level—something even he could hardly control—which was why he remained on guard alongside Yu Ji.
He knew that Lian Yun possessed extraordinary qualities but did not expect Lian Yun's progress to be so significant. Three years ago, Lian Yun had only just arrived at the rank of King. Now he had surpassed ordinary High Emperors, nearly achieving two full levels of advancement—such rapid progress was indeed astonishing.
However, seeing that Lian Yun did not harbor ill intentions, Fan Zeng felt a slight sense of relief but did not fully relax; after all, he had yet to see the Twelve Fierce Warriors.
Meanwhile, Lian Yun engaged directly with the Overlord in combat; fists collided with fists in a display of violent and reverberating attacks.
To be honest, Lian Yun's high comprehension of Vibrational Force might be closely related to the Overlord himself.
Unlike the Insect Emperor, the giant tiger in the final level of the Yaochi Dungeon, the Overlord emanated a natural and pure vibration force.
Lian Yun had not only witnessed this pure vibration force but had also absorbed the Overlord's Realm Power, giving him a profound understanding of Vibrational Force.
Now, Lian Yun felt that the Peerless Demon Master's Earth Formation might suppress his personal strength. Therefore, in future battles, Vibrational Force could become the key to victory. This was why he chose to fight the Overlord, deepening his comprehension of Vibrational Force.
The Overlord was incredibly powerful, truly a king of beasts. If he were clear-headed, his fighting ability could potentially double. However, in his current state of confusion, his attacks were chaotic, allowing Lian Yun to easily contend with him.
Gradually, though, Lian Yun began to show signs of madness as well. His punches became increasingly erratic—sometimes heavy and sometimes light. Soon enough, he was using both hands and feet in a chaotic manner.
Once, Lian Yun had created the Chaos Sword Technique but had hardly used it since. Now, he brought it back into play. Although he wasn't employing it as a sword technique, this actually allowed him to grasp the true essence of the Chaos Sword Technique more deeply.
However, the Overlord was already deranged; under Lian Yun's assault, he became even more frenzied. Watching from the sidelines, Fan Zeng and Yu Ji frowned with concern.
But this state didn't last long. Lian Yun switched to full-on attacks, bombarding the Overlord into the ground until he was embedded in the stone. Yet the Overlord paid no heed and charged at Lian Yun again. Thus, Lian Yun continued to send him flying as if he were being tortured.
In this situation, however, a glimmer of clarity began to return to the Overlord's mind.
