Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 337 - 335: Miao Territory Alliance!

Bai Family, one of the seven great families of Miao Territory.

At this moment, the upper echelons of the Bai Family had all gathered within the main stronghold.

Family Head Bai Wutian, tightly clutching a letter written in fresh blood, remained silent for a long time.

"Bai Changyuan, what is the meaning of this? I tasked you with retrieving the Dragon Pattern Jade Pendant, why did you provoke Immortal Master Li, this Killing God?"

Bai Changyuan knelt on the ground, shivering with fear. At this moment, he felt even more wronged than Dou’e.

Great Elder Bai Laohu said, "Family Head, that Immortal Master Li is merely flaunting his power in Jiangnan. Should he dare to step half into Miao Territory, we shall have him buried here!"

"Exactly, Family Head, with the protection of the Witch God in Miao Territory, even War God Li Lingtian wouldn’t dare venture here rashly, let alone such a minor figure as Immortal Master Li?" Other elders, mostly arrogant, hastened to agree.

Bai Wutian thought for a moment, then turned his gaze to the family strategist, "Mr. Bo Long, what do you think?"

Mr. Bo Long paused for a moment to think, then asked, "Family Head, who do you think is stronger, you or the Xuan Tian Sect Leader of the Heavenly Master Sect?"

Bai Wutian replied, "Xuan Tian Sect Leader has entered the Demigod Realm, I am not his match!"

Mr. Bo Long pointed towards the stronghold outside and asked, "How does our Bai Family Village compare to Heming Mountain?"

Bai Wutian shook his head and said, "Inferior to Heming Mountain!"

Mr. Bo Long looked around the hall and asked, "Do we have as many experts as the Heavenly Master Sect?" freeweɓnovel.cøm

Bai Wutian shook his head again: "Naturally not!"

Mr. Bo Long paused briefly and said, "Family Head, you are not the match of Xuan Tian Sect Leader, Bai Family Village is inferior to Heming Mountain, and the people present here are also not on par with the experts of the Heavenly Master Sect. What do you think would happen if we were to directly confront Immortal Master Li?"

Hearing Mr. Bo Long’s pointed question, the entire stronghold fell silent in an instant.

Mr. Bo Long’s statement was indeed controversial, "Don’t forget, this is Miao Territory, not the Central Plains, we have the protection of the Witch God. That Immortal Master Li is of an Alien Race, the great Witch God will surely let him traverse across Miao Territory!" Great Elder Bai Laohu stretched his neck and shrieked hysterically.

Although his voice was loud, his confidence was clearly lacking.

The great Witch God was merely a legend after all. Everyone present, including Bai Wutian, had never seen the true spirit of the Witch God.

Bai Wutian showed a troubled expression, saying with difficulty, "Mr. Bo Long, must we really hand over our Bai family’s heirloom to a foreign junior?"

Mr. Bo Long was silent for a long time, then said, "If Family Head insists on confronting Immortal Master Li directly, there’s only one path we can take!"

Hearing this, Bai Wutian couldn’t wait to ask, "What path, please tell, Sir?"

Mr. Bo Long looked into the distance, murmuring two words, "Horizontal Alliance!"

"Horizontal Alliance?" Bai Wutian, Bai Laohu, and others turned their heads, looking at Mr. Bo Long with surprise.

Mr. Bo Long stroked his beard and said, "Yes, horizontal alliance. During the Warring States Period, Su Qin persuaded the lords of six states to unite vertically to oppose the mighty Qin State."

Upon finishing, he assumed a confident posture and recited a powerful poem: "By the oath of Huan River under divine witness, like lips and teeth, flesh and bone so kin. Should the horizontal alliance never break, why should it be hard to topple lonely Qin?"

Bai Wutian clapped and laughed heartily, praising, "What a phrase: Should the horizontal alliance never break, why should it be hard to topple lonely Qin? I understand your intention, Sir, to ally with the Wu Family and the Yin Ghost Sect to jointly ambush Immortal Master Li!"

Although Bai Laohu didn’t understand Mr. Bo Long’s obscure verses, he understood his elder brother’s intention.

"Big brother, let me handle contacting the Wu Family and the Yin Ghost Sect. If that Immortal Master Li dares to step half into Miao Territory, we’ll ensure he doesn’t return!"

Bai Wutian did not directly respond but turned his gaze to Mr. Bo Long.

He noticed Mr. Bo Long’s expression was slightly off, so he tentatively asked, "Does Sir have something more to say?"

Mr. Bo Long smiled and said, "No, just feeling that now there are only two days left until the appointed time with Immortal Master Li. We don’t have much time left. These two days will be a bit tough for Second Master!"

Bai Laohu waved his hand and said, "What’s so difficult about that? I’m leaving now. I’ll send messages to the Wu Family and Yin Ghost Sect to negotiate this matter. Two days is enough time to make a round trip."

"What rubbish Immortal Master Li! As long as he dares to step into Miao Territory, I’ll shatter him into pieces!"

Mr. Bo Long looked at the spirited Bai Laohu, opened his mouth to say something as a reminder, but eventually swallowed back his words.

He had an ominous premonition.

During the Warring States Period, under Su Qin’s strategic leadership, six nations allied by drinking blood at the Huan River in Zhao Kingdom to resist Qin State. Although the event was conducted on a grand scale, it ultimately ended in failure.

Of course, he only thought of these things in his mind and did not voice them. He was not a native of Miao Territory but a Han Chinese who had come here as a refugee. Leaders like Bai Laohu always held a bias against him. Speaking these ominous words would not only fail to serve as a warning but might bring trouble to himself.

Wu Family Head Wu Batian bore a grudge against Li Chen for killing his son, and the Yin Ghost Sect had a deep-seated feud with Li Chen as well. Thus, Bai Laohu’s lobbying this time was much smoother than Su Qin’s efforts during the Warring States Period.

In just a day, the Yin Ghost Sect, Bai Family, and Wu Family had essentially reached a consensus.

The only disagreement was about how many experts should be sent.

If too few were dispatched, they wouldn’t be enough to even get stuck in Immortal Master Li’s teeth. Other than giving away free kills, it wouldn’t serve any other purpose.

But if they mobilized everyone, Miao Territory wasn’t limited to just these three powers. Who could guarantee that other forces wouldn’t take the opportunity to invade and take over?

Wu Family Head Wu Batian said, "In Miao Territory, there are three sects and seven great families, all descendants of the Witch God. Normally, how we fight and kill each other is an internal affair of Miao Territory. But now the situation is different, with an external enemy at our doorstep. I suggest, and propose to the Witch God Sect, Heavenly Demon Sect, Jing Family, Tud Family, Ke Family, Mon Family, and Hei Family to issue a rallying order. Facing an external enemy, our three sects and seven families should set aside our prejudices and unite to resist Immortal Master Li together!"

Ancestor Yin Ghost also agreed with Wu Batian’s proposal, and he further declared that anyone who failed to respond to the call would be disrespecting the Yin Ghost Sect and become their sworn enemy.

Jing Family, Tud Family, Ke Family, Mon Family, Hei Family—these five great families, pressured by his dominance, also sent one Grandmaster each, or two to three Half-step Innate experts to assist.

Witch God Sect and Heavenly Demon Sect were not really afraid of the Yin Ghost Sect. However, they also found some reason in what Wu Batian said. Whatever internal conflicts they might have, were all their own internal matters. But with Immortal Master Li, an outsider, if he thought he could act unbridled in Miao Territory, they had to see if they would agree to that!

Moreover, they were also worried that if Immortal Master Li truly annihilated the Bai Family, it would inevitably disturb the balance that had existed in Miao Territory for hundreds of years, plunging the entire region into a bloodbath, which would certainly harm their interests.

Following a short discussion, the three sects and seven families of Miao Territory quickly reached an agreement and formed a temporary Anti-Li Alliance.

Wu Family Head Wu Batian personally took to the field, acting as the Alliance Hierarch.

Meanwhile, the Wu Family dispatched four Half-step Innate experts, leaving only one Grandmaster to hold their base.

Yin Ghost Sect sent the most Grandmasters—three, and ten Half-step Innate experts.

Witch God Sect and Heavenly Demon Sect each dispatched two Grandmasters and four Half-step Innate experts.

Jing Family, Tud Family, Ke Family, Mon Family each sent one Grandmaster and two Half-step Innate experts. The Hei Family and Bai Family having some past grudges, though they did not send Grandmasters to assist, they did send four specialists capable of controlling armored zombies who were Half-step Innate experts.

Other secondary forces, although not possessing Grandmaster Level experts, nevertheless dispatch
