The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 909: Chapter 909: Each with Their Own Plans

Along with Liu Family Patriarch Liu Haiwei’s words, a figure quickly flew out from the Liu Family Warship.

This person was the Shengjing Sect Master of the Eight Dragon Divine Domain’s Five Dao Sect.

Seeing Shengjing descend from the Liu Family Warship, Sect Master Dong Ze and others’ faces slightly changed.

In fact, Dong Ze and the others had anticipated that the Five Dao Sect Master and the Liu Family Patriarch would arrive at the Netherworld Sect to negotiate with the Chu Family. However, they hadn’t expected Shengjing to come aboard the Liu Family Warship. If they weren’t closely allied, how could he have taken another force’s warship?

If Dong Ze had been asked to board the Liu Family Warship, especially with the Liu Family Patriarch present, Dong Ze absolutely wouldn’t have done it. Being on a warship controlled by others, with the opponent having Saint Realm Third Stage power, wouldn’t he be placing himself in a perilous situation?

From this point, it was evident that the relationship between Shengjing Sect Master and the Liu Family was remarkable. Shengjing clearly trusted Liu Haiwei greatly, ensuring that Liu Haiwei wouldn’t take advantage of him while on his family’s warship.

”Fellow Daoists, long time no see, are you well?” Shengjing Sect Master’s appearance was more scholarly, and he spoke with a gentle smile, greeting Dong Ze and the others.

”Shengjing Sect Master is too kind, we are all doing very well,” Dong Ze and others responded, their eyes flickering with emotion as they cupped their hands in return.

”I heard that Sect Master Dong Ze’s Netherworld Sect and the Second Grade force Chu Family from the Quicksand Divine Domain have recently had some conflicts and plan to negotiate here. Sect Master Dong Ze has a big heart to be willing to negotiate with a Second Grade force,” Liu Family Patriarch Liu Haiwei said with a smile.

His words were clearly taunting.

How could Liu Haiwei not know that Dong Ze had drawn in the First-grade forces Fang Family and the Ten Thousand Sword Sect? It was clear that the Chu Family had caused great trouble for the Netherworld Sect, which itself didn’t have confidence in dealing with the Chu Family.

Liu Haiwei, the patriarch of the Liu Family of the Lan Ning Divine Domain, found this situation quite amusing.

”Patriarch Liu, you are forthright indeed. Compared to your Liu Family, my Netherworld Sect indeed shows more magnanimity. Your Liu Family has always suppressed those who refuse to submit using force in the Lan Ning Divine Domain. I think such a method is inappropriate, and I don’t agree with it,” Dong Ze countered Liu Haiwei sharply.

As they locked eyes, the tension between them was palpable.

”Alright, alright, Patriarch Liu, we’ve just arrived, let’s take a short rest,” Shengjing Sect Master said with a cheerful smile.

Then, Shengjing and Liu Haiwei returned to the Liu Family Warship.

On the Chu Family Warship.

”Jing Yan, now the five First-grade forces of the Five Divine Domains have all arrived. Even the Liu Family from the Lan Ning Divine Domain and the Five Dao Sect from the Eight Dragon Divine Domain have come,” Chu Family Patriarch Chu Hongnan said with a serious tone.

”This was expected,”

”Our Chu Family’s negotiation with the Netherworld Sect has created such a commotion; various forces can sense there’s something unusual. They couldn’t rest without seeing it for themselves. Of course, they are also curious about me, wanting to see how strong I am to force the Netherworld Sect into this situation.”

”Not knowing my strength won’t put them at ease,” Jing Yan said half-closing his eyes.

”Hmm! I just wonder if the Sky Sacred Hall will send someone,” Chu Hongnan said.

”Guardian Chen Long will likely show up. If we engage in a fight with the Netherworld Sect, it will surely cause quite a stir, and how could Chen Long feel at ease? But we don’t need to worry; as the guardian of the Sky Sacred Hall, Chen Long won’t obviously favor the Netherworld Sect,” Jing Yan said.

”Is Fellow Daoist Jing Yan here?”

A loud voice sounded from outside at that moment.

Upon hearing this, Jing Yan’s eyes slightly moved.

”Hmm? Who is it?” Chu Hongnan was slightly surprised.

”There’s no need for Chu Clan Leader to be tense; the one calling my name is an acquaintance. Of course, Chu Clan Leader also knows him, he is Mr. Zhong from the Buffer Zone,” Jing Yan smiled and said to Chu Hongnan.

”Mr. Zhong? Mr. Zhong is here too?” Chu Hongnan indeed showed some surprise.

Jing Yan moved swiftly, leaving the Chu Family Warship to meet him and indeed saw Mr. Zhong with several Saint Realm martial artists not far away.

”Mr. Zhong!” Jing Yan cupped his hands.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan,” Mr. Zhong smiled and returned the courtesy.

”How come Mr. Zhong is here?” Jing Yan asked with a smile.

”I heard about the Chu Family and Netherworld Sect’s matter, so I came to see if there was anything I could assist with,” Mr. Zhong said, looking at Chu Hongnan and others who had followed Jing Yan out.

”Mr. Zhong,” the Chu Family Ancestor also appeared, greeting Mr. Zhong. The Chu Family Ancestor had known Mr. Zhong for a long time and had met him numerous times.

”It seems an old friend’s cultivation has further advanced,” Mr. Zhong said to the Chu Family Ancestor.

”Hehe, it’s crowded here with prying eyes, let’s get on the warship to talk,” Jing Yan said, his gaze sweeping the distant scrutinizing eyes.

Fang Family Patriarch Fang Jue locked eyes with Jing Yan, his eyes brimming with undisguised hatred.

”Alright,” Mr. Zhong didn’t hesitate.

He followed Jing Yan and others directly into the Chu Family Warship. This scene astounded Dong Ze and others.

Of course, they knew Mr. Zhong from the Despair Abyss Buffer Zone. They had also interacted with Mr. Zhong several times. However, Mr. Zhong had never interfered with the affairs of the Five Divine Domains and seldom ventured deep into the Despair Abyss Buffer Zone.

No one had expected Mr. Zhong to come here this time and enter the Chu Family Warship. This was intriguing; could the Chu Family have already won over Mr. Zhong, who was willing to help them?

Although Mr. Zhong had always been active in the Buffer Zone, the energy he commanded was considerable. The Five First-grade forces of the Five Divine Domains wouldn’t easily provoke Mr. Zhong in the Buffer Zone.

On the Liu Family Warship.

”It’s getting interesting; Dong Ze has enlisted the Ten Thousand Sword Sect of Wan Ren Mountain and Fang Family Patriarch Fang Jue. And on the Chu Family side, Mr. Zhong from the Buffer Zone has arrived,” Shengjing said with a wide smile.

”Why would Mr. Zhong stand up for the Chu Family? When did they get so close?” Liu Haiwei shook his head, slightly furrowing his brows.

”Mr. Zhong’s arrival is likely due to Fellow Daoist Jing Yan. Jing Yan comes from the Heavenly Origin Continent, his mother is from the Chu Family, but his father is a human from the Heavenly Origin Continent. Jing Yan must have passed through the Buffer Zone when entering the Despair Abyss, perhaps establishing a close relationship with Mr. Zhong then,” Shengjing said thoughtfully.

”Hmm, that indeed seems very likely. Nevertheless, even with Mr. Zhong’s assistance, the Chu Family can’t contend with the Netherworld Sect. Handling the Netherworld Sect alone would be possible, but now the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and Fang Family are fully supporting the Netherworld Sect. The gap between the two sides is still significant,” Liu Haiwei sighed softly and shook his head.
