This was Duan Jianhong’s wishful plan. In his opinion, Nanbei Chao’s threat toward the Heavenly Sword Sect was actually the perfect opportunity for the Heavenly Sword Sect to rule the entire Qi Province.
“Sect Chief, if we really surrender to Nanbei Chao, the Heavenly Sword Sect’s reputation is going to be greatly affected.”
One of the noble Sect Elders said.
“Reputation? This is a world where absolute powers rules; the winner gets to write the history! As long as we come out victorious to rule the entire Qi Province, who will care about what happened before? At that moment, we will be the only power in the Qi Province, and we might even get the Martial Saint Dynasty’s attention!”
Duan Jianhong’s eyes were flickering with intelligence.
“What Sect Chief said is right, this is the perfect opportunity for the Heavenly Sword Sect, and if we miss it, we won’t have the same opportunity again. All of the four big sects are very powerful, and in order to destroy one sect, the opponent will have to pay a heavy price, allowing yet another sect to sweep in and harvest the fruits of labor. Therefore, no one really dares initiate a war, and this is the reason why the Qi Province has always maintained the same structured. But now, Nanbei Chao is going to break this structure, and rule the entire Qi Province. This is definitely a tough mission. If Nanbei Chao, the Burning Sky Pavilion, the Black Sect, and the Valley of Happiness are all weakened by the war, the Heavenly Sword Sect will be the biggest winner. Therefore, surrendering to Nanbei Chao and the Burning Sky Pavilion is actually a really good choice right now.”
Someone said. He really admired Duan Jianhong’s strategy.
“In that case, although the Heavenly Sword Sect’s reputation will be affected, this is indeed a rare opportunity for us.”
Many people nodded their heads. They agreed that Duan Jianhong’s strategy made sense. With this, not only could they preserve their strength, it would also create a once in a lifetime opportunity for them. Most importantly, the Heavenly Sword Sect couldn’t be the first one to fight the Burning Sky Pavilion, because if they did, the Black Sect would benefit the most.
“But, if the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness also decide to surrender to Nanbei Chao, our plan won’t work.”
A Sect Elder worriedly said.
