The leader of the Hidden Sect and the elders tried their best to remain calm.
"It seems that the East Region Pavilion has had this idea for a long time... Based on what the Ninth Elder said about the attitudes of the Danwang Mansion and Xuantian Sect at the Martial Arts Competition, the Danwang Mansion and Xuantian Sect probably knew about this a long time ago."
"But I don't understand why Danwang Mansion and Xuantian Sect agreed to this?"
Everyone looked worried and puzzled.
Lou Qianxue looked at the Hidden Sect's leader: "Did the East Region Pavilion promise anything to you, leader?"
“The East Region Pavilion said that my Hidden Sect is very powerful and can be on par with the Danwang Mansion and Xuantian Sect. If you really want to unite as one, I can be the deputy sect master, and all the elders will still be elders.”
"only these?"
"only these!"
With just these, how could Danwang Mansion and Xuantian Sect be tempted!
"I think the East Region Pavilion is hiding something from our Hidden Sect. They dare to come up with such an idea and hold the martial arts competition with full confidence. They must have something to rely on." The elder of the First Hall did not believe this statement.
Lou Qianxue pondered and said, "In fact, the East Region Pavilion must have had this idea a long time ago." Lou Qianxue thought of what happened in the Seven Nations Ranking Tournament.
"A similar thing happened in the Seven Nations Ranking Tournament."
"Um?"
"The Seven Nations Qualifying Tournament has been held many times among the seven nations, but the Seven Nations Qualifying Tournament more than a month ago was not held in advance as usual. Not only that, but at the Seven Nations Qualifying Tournament, the leader of the seven nations, Jialan, proposed the same idea - to unify the seven nations."
"Is this true?" Everyone looked at Lou Qianxue in astonishment: "But the seven countries were never unified."
"That's because I improved the cultivation of the other six kings. Moreover, in the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Tournament, the Jialan Kingdom was defeated. How dare they bring it up again? However, the king of the Jialan Kingdom once said that the Eastern Region ranked second to last in the strength of the southeast, northwest, and northeast regions of Xuantian Continent. He said that our Eastern Region is a mess. If the seven countries, three sects, and other sects can be integrated, they will surely be extremely powerful..."
"He even said that Jialan Nation ruled over the seven nations with the support of the East Region Pavilion."
The elder of the Second Hall said quickly: "The fifth on the Tianlong Ranking is Lan Wuxin of the East Region Pavilion. He is the prince of the Jialan Kingdom. It is normal for the East Region Pavilion to support the Jialan Kingdom."
"But I now suspect—" Lou Qianxue narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly: "What the East Region Pavilion wants to rule is not the seven countries, nor the various sects, but the entire East Region..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, their expressions changed again and again: "That's right, if Jialan Nation had successfully unified the seven nations, wouldn't it still be a puppet of the East Region Pavilion? And then the East Region Pavilion annexed the various sects, wouldn't the East Region Pavilion have unified the East Region?"
"Then... here comes the question." Lou Qianxue raised her eyebrows and glanced at everyone in the room: "What on earth gave the East Region Pavilion the confidence to actually want to unify the East Region?"
Back then, even when the Hidden Sect was the overlord of the Eastern Region, it never dreamed of unifying the Eastern Region!
And the East Region Pavilion is not even the overlord now!
"I heard..." The Hidden Sect leader hesitated, "The East Region Pavilion has a great master who is several hundred years old and very powerful... He has been in seclusion for decades... There are rumors that he is dead, and there are also rumors that he has made a breakthrough. Could it be that... he has made a breakthrough? He has become the number one master in the East Region, so the East Region Pavilion is so confident?"
"It's possible! I also heard that recently many forces outside the region have been active in the Eastern Region. It is also possible that the Eastern Region Pavilion has hooked up with the forces outside the region and has a backer..."
There is still one chapter left, I will continue later.
