224: Alliance continues

Wu Meng looked at Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan and said, "Grand Elder, Ling Li said something when I left."

Seeing this, Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan asked, "Oh? Tell me."

"He said: Sect Leader Wu, the War God Hall has suffered such a great change, it's probably not far from disbanding. Please inform the Grand Marshal that I will not be returning to the Town Heaven Army."

As soon as Wu Meng finished speaking, the entire hall was silent, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Wu Meng's reaction to the situation of the people below was also expected; even he himself was a bit stunned when he first heard it.

None of the Invincible Celestial Gods below dared to speak at this moment; such a major matter should be decided by the God Kings.

It was Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan who finally spoke: "The War God Hall disbanded? And then? Not returning to the Town Heaven Army? This is an attempt to leave the Human Race."

Wu Meng nodded affirmatively.

Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan sighed: "If I were Zhuge Lun, I probably would have left long ago, wouldn't have waited until now. Too many sad things have happened, and in the end, I would have been disappointed in the Human Race."

Wu Meng had anticipated Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan's reaction, because Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan and Ling Tian were close friends, and their relationship was excellent.

Seeing that no one expressed an opinion, Wu Meng directly initiated a vote, saying, "The disbandment of the War God Hall is almost a certainty, and its members will definitely join the Heavenly Palace founded by Xun Xiuyuan. We will now vote: should our Divine Martial Sect continue its alliance with the War God Hall, or convert it into an alliance with the Heavenly Palace?"

The people below were also a bit confused; the War God Hall was disbanding, yet the alliance could still continue.

Supreme Elder Gu Yunshan raised his hand without hesitation and said, "I agree to continue the alliance with the Heavenly Palace. Although the name has changed, it's the same thing with a different name. We don't form alliances based on names, but on people."

Gu Fen, seeing his father's attitude, dared not delay and immediately raised his hand, saying, "I agree to continue the alliance with the Heavenly Palace."

Their statements were like a fuse, and the people behind them immediately followed: "I agree to continue the alliance with the Heavenly Palace."

Although it was quite chaotic, the voices of agreement accounted for at least half of the Invincible Celestial Gods.

Wu Meng looked at the two phantoms and asked, "What are the opinions of the two Vice Sect Masters?"

The two replied, "Since the Palace Master of the Heavenly Palace is the new Hall Master of the War God Hall, it is only right that the object of our alliance converts to the Heavenly Palace."

The other person didn't even bother to find an excuse: "I agree!"

Seeing that the voting was complete, Wu Meng directly announced, "Very well, this matter is settled. Our Divine Martial Sect will continue to maintain its alliance with the Heavenly Palace. The alliance agreement will be personally delivered to the Heavenly Palace by Gu Cangfeng after he emerges from the War God Secret Realm."

Great World.

Ghost Race territory.

Left Wing Army, main camp.

Gui Chang looked at the scout in front of him and asked in disbelief, "The God Kings of the War God Hall have reached the heartland of the Exotic Beast Clan? Are you sure this intelligence is not wrong?"

The person kneeling on the ground was a scout from the Left Wing Army assigned to the Ghost Race.

The Left Wing Army of the Ghost Race is adjacent to the Ghost Race's territory, while the Right Wing Army is adjacent to the Human Race's territory.

The scout nodded and said, "I obtained this intelligence from over a dozen scouts of our clan. After compiling it, the situation is clearly visible. Zhuge Lun of the War God Hall went directly to the Mad Dragon Clan's territory, and a major battle erupted, causing countless casualties. Also, God King Ling Yun of the War God Hall went to the Xuan Yue Wolf Clan's territory. Ling Yun has long been stationed in the Town Heaven Army, and our subordinates have seen him, so there's no way they could be mistaken."

Gui Chang asked doubtfully, "Do you know the reason? Are these crazy people abandoning their homes?"

The scout shook his head and said, "I don't know. The battle erupted very suddenly. After confirming it, I immediately rushed back to report."

Gui Chang verbally praised the scout, then instructed, "Then you immediately go back and find out the outcome of the battle. If you can investigate the reason, that would be best."

The scout took his leave, and Gui Chang fell into contemplation.

Meanwhile, in the Right Wing Army, Gui You was also discussing this matter with Chu Dingtian.

Gui You also asked Chu Dingtian in confusion, "Is the intelligence from your junior reliable?"

Chu Dingtian nodded: "A business caravan from the Chu family has long been trading in the Ghost Race territory, incidentally gathering some intelligence. Previous intelligence has never been wrong."

Gui You felt a bit uneasy at this moment and asked, "You say, regarding our arrangement to assassinate Wei Tieshan, will the War God Hall vent its anger on me?"

Chu Dingtian also looked speechlessly at this person, one of the top three most powerful in the Ghost Race, whose timid personality was fully exposed.

If you're afraid of the War God Hall's retaliation, why did you provoke them in the first place? Now you're scared. How many times have I said it, the War God Hall is dormant, not dead.

However, Chu Dingtian still replied, "Probably not, after all, you weren't successful, were you?"

When Gui You heard Chu Dingtian's words, his eyes narrowed, because Chu Dingtian used 'you' in his sentence, not 'we'.

This indicated that Chu Dingtian was already prepared to shift the blame. The reputation of the War God Hall was truly formidable.

Gui You no longer thought much and spoke again, "I don't know why the War God Hall is so angry. The Ghost Race must have done something big and extraordinary, and the key is that we don't even know what it is. We need to investigate quickly, otherwise, we'll be too passive."

Chu Dingtian agreed with Gui You on this point. After some thought, he said, "I'll arrange for people to inquire."

Subsequently, Chu Dingtian's figure dissipated, and he left the main hall.

When Ghost Emperor received Chu Dingtian's intelligence, he was also stunned, because his own scouts had also already sent back intelligence.

The two pieces of intelligence arrived almost simultaneously, but their content was strikingly similar.

The same event: Zhuge Lun of the War God Hall had invaded the Mad Dragon Clan in the Exotic Beast Clan's territory, and Ling Yun had invaded the Xuan Yue Wolf Clan in the Exotic Beast Clan's territory.

Both pieces of intelligence only contained the events, without reasons or outcomes.

It was clear at a glance that these were sudden occurrences, with no time for investigation.

Gui Ling was chatting with her mother. Gui Ling had also seen the intelligence but did not speak.

Gui Ling's mother was an extremely beautiful Human Race woman, with a youthful appearance, looking exactly like sisters when with Gui Ling.

Han Yunyao: The legitimate daughter of a prominent family in the Zhu Xie Alliance. She met and fell in love with Ghost Emperor while traveling in the Ghost Race territory. Because of this, Han Yunyao's family was implicated and exterminated by the Zhu Xie Alliance, with only Han Yunyao being rescued by Ghost Emperor.

Since then, the relationship between Ghost Emperor's Central Army faction and the Human Race's Zhu Xie Alliance had plummeted to an all-time low.

Han Yunyao looked at Ghost Emperor, who was frowning, and asked in confusion, "These two pieces of intelligence are similar, so they must be true. What are you still agonizing over? Are there any doubts?"

Ghost Emperor heard his wife's question and smiled, "There are no doubts, it's just that both pieces of intelligence are incomplete, and I feel a bit uneasy."

After Gui Ling understood her father's thoughts, she chuckled, "If it really doesn't work, you can just ask the Divine Martial Sect to see if they have any internal news."

Her fiancé was the future Sect Master of the Divine Martial Sect. They were family, so asking wouldn't be a problem.
