Chapter 414: 361: All the Heroes in the World are in the Trap!

“No matter what the Taoist School’s goal is, if we can intervene, it will undoubtedly be a great opportunity,” Xue Wuheng decided.

People in the Demonic Cult are the most pragmatic. They re-merged to ensure they could seize enough benefits in the upcoming Great World era to strengthen themselves.

If they couldn’t achieve this, even if he was the strongest in the Demonic Cult, he wouldn’t feel secure maintaining his position as the cult leader.

You have to remember, after the revival of Heaven and Earth, there are many Spiritual Medicine that had been extinct. Some of these spiritual medicines greatly benefit Spirit Realm practitioners.

The vast areas outside the border are home to many valuable items. If they could gain enough benefits for the Demonic Cult during the forthcoming invasion of the Great Ming beyond the Great Wall, it would not only yield substantial rewards for him, but it would also earn him the devotion of his subordinates. By then, his leadership would naturally be followed, and his prestige would soar.

“I cannot miss this alliance meeting!” Xue Wuheng thought. “However, I must first get that old guy to cooperate. Otherwise, with my power alone, I’m afraid I won’t be able to gain much advantage against the other parties.”

Thinking of that old guy, Xue Wuheng felt disgusted.

Originally, after the merging of the various sects in the Demonic Cult, he rightfully became the sect leader. Using the rebellious elder from the Blood Demon Sect to establish his authority, he even took this opportunity to settle his grudges with Pei Xuanjing.

It seemed like he had gained a lot from these events.

However, he never expected that the old man from the Blood Demon Sect, who was about to die from old age, would somehow break into the Spirit Realm.

Initially, the Demonic Cult only had him, a Spirit Realm practitioner. Now there was another one, and he was from the Blood Demon Sect, which was in conflict with him. This made Xue Wuheng feel extremely annoyed and upset.

While Xue Wuheng was annoyed, the Buddhism School also received Pei Xuanjing’s invitation. As for this invite, the Buddhism School naturally chose to accept it.

They knew that this alliance meeting wasn’t simple. The Buddhism School must attend, because the Taoist School is already powerful. Now with Pei Xuanjing, the world’s number one, their momentum is even more significant. If they continue to remain silent, they will no longer be able to keep up with the Taoist School.

The same was true for the Aristocratic Alliance. These long-standing aristocratic families had the closest ties with both the Jianghu and the imperial court. Numerous family members held official positions at court, so they were well aware of the Great Ming court’s plans.

This time, they would not want to miss out on this opportunity. After all, they have three Spirit Realm practitioners, making this their time of rising power.

This time, Pei Xuanjing didn’t just invite people from the Ji Fang Alliances. Some slightly weaker forces also received invitation cards.

As the news of this invitation spread through Jianghu, it even formed a trend that resonated all over the world, attracting countless people’s attention.

After all, even though Pei Xuanjing, as the world’s number one, invited so many people, he couldn’t possibly write a personal invitation to each one. There were very few forces and individuals who were worth his time.

Therefore, these varying standards of invitation had become a measure of each force’s standing in people’s eyes.

Forces and individuals who received personal invitations from Pei Xuanjing were undoubtedly the top forces and individuals in Jianghu. The second-tier ones could only receive ordinary invitations.

Of course, what dissatisfied many forces and individuals more than receiving ordinary invitations was that they thought they were qualified to receive invitations but didn’t.

Without much effort, Pei Xuanjing managed to categorize these forces into three classes.

In the face of such categorization, some agreed, some disagreed, but no one dared to question the judgment of the man currently recognized as the world’s number one.

Even those forces that were upset about this could only complain inwardly, not daring to express their discontent outwardly.

After all, it had only been a few years since Pei Xuanjing swept through the world, and although he hadn’t appeared in recent years, no one dared to underestimate him.

The deterrent power of the world’s number one person was indeed terrifying!

Whether it was the Demonic Cult, the Buddhism School, the Aristocratic Alliance, or any significant powers that spanned provinces, none of them rejected Pei Xuanjing’s invitation after receiving it.

Even some newly arising forces that considered themselves to be powerful decided to participate in this meeting, despite not receiving an invitation.

After all, no one is a fool. Just by looking at Pei Xuanjing’s invite, it was clear that renowned forces and individuals from all over the world would gather at Shenxiao Mountain, and even the Great Ming imperial court would send representatives.

So, although Pei Xuanjing has not really revealed the true purpose of the Shenxiao alliance, unless they’re a fool, those individuals who did not receive an invitation would not want to miss out.

On Shenxiao Mountain, Pei Xuanjing stood alone atop a peak, looking out over its continuous ridges and the vast canopy of the sky. Dressed in green, the mountain breeze caused his robes to flutter, and his determination surged in his heart:

“With this, all the heroes of the world are within my grasp!”

This Shenxiao conference would be the first step in his plan. Once his plan was implemented, all forces in the Great Ming, whether they liked it or not, would be bound to his chariot and become part of his plan.

Although he’s giving out a considerable amount of benefits now, if seen in the long term, he’s saved an untold amount of time. Thus, whether it’s a loss or a profit is still unknown.

Zhang Jie appeared on the mountain peak. Seeing the man before him, his eyes were filled with fanatical admiration!

As one of the four powerful men who Pei Xuanjing had initially won over, if Zhang Jie initially had some complaints about swearing allegiance to Pei Xuanjing, he was now utterly loyal to Pei Xuanjing. In his view, swearing fealty back then was the luckiest choice he ever made in his life.

If I hadn’t sworn allegiance to the sect leader back then, or if the sect leader hadn’t wanted to take us in, would we have what we have today?

This was a question that Zhang Jie and others had asked themselves heartfeltly more than once.

The answer was definite: without the earlier submission, there would be no glory today.

The former Lord of Shenxiao Gate might have been powerful, but compared to Pei Xuanjing, he was as a firefly facing the noonday sun.

No, the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was not even worthy of being compared to the sect leader. Comparing these two people was an insult to the sect leader.

What kind of days did they live under the leadership of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate back then?

Lingering on in utter misery, constantly hiding, fearing they would attract the pursuit of the Great Ming imperial court. They didn’t have a single peaceful day, and they didn’t have the dignity a master should have.
