137 Sorrow (2)

“Even if the Red Tiger Totem is in his hands, it might not be a bad thing. We only need to know that there’s a mysterious expert in our Red Tiger Sect. When our Red Tiger Sect is in danger, this mysterious expert will definitely not sit back and do nothing.

“We don’t have to disturb him on usual days, nor do we have to spread the existence of the other party. It’s fine as long as we know. If this mysterious expert has any needs, I believe he will take the initiative to look for us.”

The three Blood Martial Realm elders looked at each other. They felt that the Sect Master’s attitude towards this mysterious expert was as if he treated him as the sect’s Patriarch. However, when they thought of this mysterious expert’s attack this time, they felt that he indeed had the qualifications to become their Red Tiger Sect’s Patriarch.

After all, even the sect master was powerless to resolve such a huge bizarre spirit However, the other party directly killed the bizarre spirit.

!!
After realizing that there was such a mysterious existence in the sect, they continued to discuss the migration. Now, it was clearly an extremely difficult thing to migrate the entire Red Tiger Sect out of the Seven Star Province.

After all, it was already extremely difficult for them to return to the sect from Golden Cloud City. One could imagine the difficulty of moving the entire sect out of the Seven Star Province.

“If we want to migrate the sect out of the Seven Star Province, we have to join forces with the Seven Star Sect. I believe they’re also troubled about the migration now.”

Guo Chengdao had long had an idea about the migration. But he also knew the location of the Red Tiger Sect was quite far from the location of the Seven Stars Sect. It would not be easy to gather with each other.

“Apart from the Seven Stars Sect, perhaps we have to contact the other factions.” Elder Qiao pondered.

The current situation in the Seven Star Province endangered all the factions. At this moment, all the factions definitely wanted to leave. If all these factions joined forces, there might be hope.

“By the way, how did Feiyuan Palace migrate? Where did they migrate to?” A Blood Martial Realm elder suddenly asked.

Now, Guo Chengdao had also told them about the Feiyuan Palace leaving the Seven Star Province.

“The Feiyuan Palace has the support of the Cangyan Army. If we want to migrate, we naturally have to… Hmm?”

The other two elders and Guo Chengdao were stunned at the same time. They suddenly thought of a key problem.

The Seven Star Province was one of the thirteen states that belonged to the Cangyan Territory. Although it was the most barren and weakest periphery of the thirteen states, it still belonged to the Cangyan Territory.

Usually, the factions in charge of every state in the Cangyan Territory needed to obtain the recognition of the Cangyan Army to become the lord of a state.

The Feiyuan Palace did not care about the life and death of the Seven Star Province and ran away just like that. Without the recognition of the Cangyan Army, how would they dare to do this!

This was a little terrifying.

“There are two possibilities.” Guo Chengdao’s expression was unprecedentedly solemn. “The first is that they received instructions from the Cangyan Army, so they retreated from the Seven Star Province. The other is that they betrayed the Cangyan Territory and joined other territories.”

Guo Chengdao knew very well.

Cangyan Territory and the surrounding Xingluo Territory had always been fighting openly and secretly. The Feiyuan Palace might have sided with the enemy, the Xingluo Territory.

“If they have joined Xingluo Territory, then it’s very easy to explain. The Xingluo Territory and the Cangyan Territory have always been enemies. To be able to make the Cangyan Territory lose a state is what the Xingluo Territory wants to see the most.” Elder Qiao said. He realized that the chaos in the Seven Star Province this time might involve the battle between the two territories.

“No… this isn’t right.” However, Guo Chengdao shook his head with an ugly expression. “If the Feiyuan Palace betrayed the Cangyan Territory and joined the Xingluo Territory, it’s impossible for the Cangyan Army to not make any moves at all.

“Although the Seven Star Province is only a small continent in the Cangyan Territory, it’s still the territory of the Cangyan Territory. How can the Cangyan Army let the Seven Star Province fall?

“I don’t believe that with the intelligence of the Cangyan Army, they wouldn’t know what the current situation in the Seven Star Province is. But until now, the Cangyan Army hasn’t appeared. What does this mean?!”

The three elders’ expressions changed at the same time. It was indeed as Guo Chengdao had said. If the chaos in the Seven Star Province was caused by the Xingluo Territory colluding with the Feiyuan Palace and the evil cult, it was impossible for the Cangyan Army to not have any movement.

They would definitely come to eliminate these evil spirits the moment they appeared. But in this matter, they did not see the Cangyan Army appear from the beginning to the end.

“Sect Master, you mean…” One of the elders’ voices trembled.

“The Feiyuan Palace must have received instructions from the Cangyan Army to retreat from the Seven Star Province.” Guo Chengdao said sadly. “The Cangyan Army… is clearly giving up on the Seven Star Province!”

Even though they had already guessed it, the three elders’ expressions still changed drastically.

If all of this was done by the Xingluo Territory in collusion with the Feiyuan Palace and the evil cult, they could still wait for the Cangyan Army to save them. But if all of this happened because the Cangyan Army wanted to give up on the Seven Star Province, then that would be a hopeless situation for them!

“But… But why did the Cangyan Army give up on the Seven Star Province!? It doesn’t make sense! No matter how small the Seven Star Province is, it’s still their territory. How can they give up a territory for nothing?” An elder said excitedly. He really did not want to believe that the Cangyan Army would give up on the Seven Star Province so easily.

“I’ve already discussed this with the Seven Stars Sect before. The Seven Stars Sect had once obtained the recognition of the Cangyan Army and was in charge of the Seven Stars Province. They have a way to understand the exact situation. I believe there will be an answer soon.” Guo Chengdao said in a deep voice.

Everyone was a little depressed. They felt very uneasy. Although this was only their guess, the fact that the Cangyan Army had not appeared so far explained the problem.

Soon, Guo Chengdao received the news from the Seven Stars Sect. Although the current Seven Star Province was already occupied by many evil spirits, they could still communicate with each other through some special birds.

When Guo Chengdao saw the news sent by the Seven Stars Sect, his entire face instantly turned pale. His body was trembling. It was as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant. His face was filled with exhaustion and sorrow.

When the three Blood Martial Realm elders saw the Sect Master’s expression, their hearts skipped a beat. Although they were already mentally prepared, they still trembled nervously.

Guo Chengdao closed his eyes sadly.

The chaos in the Seven Star Province this time was indeed a game between the two territories. However, the difference was that the one who caused the Seven Star Province to fall was not the Xingluo Territory, but… the Cangyan Army!

In the previous bet with the Xingluo Territory in Cangyan Territory, they had lost to the Xingluo Territory. Hence, they had no choice but to divide one of the thirteen states into the Xingluo Territory.

They chose the poorest and weakest Seven Star Province.

But even so, they were also unwilling to give up an intact Seven Star Province. They might as well give the Xingluo Territory a state that had already been occupied by evil spirits.

Therefore, before the handover of the state, the Cangyan Army had specially reached an agreement with the evil cult to let the evil cult come to the Seven Star Province and create a world of evil spirits.

In that case, even if they wanted to give a state to the Xingluo Territory, they would not give them a complete state.

I’ll give you a state filled with endless evil spirits. I just want to disgust you.

This was a game between the two territories. Usually, in this kind of game, even if one party had the advantage, the other party would constantly reduce this advantage.

In this game, the tiny Red Tiger Sect could not even be considered a chess piece. They could be abandoned nonchalantly. The Cangyan Army only informed the Feiyuan Palace and gave them a chance to retreat.

In the eyes of the Cangyan Army, only the Feiyuan Palace was of some value to them in the entire Seven Star Province. It was worth giving them a chance to evacuate.

The other factions? They did not even have the right to inform them. They left them to fend for themselves.
