Alex told them not to be reckless and watched out if there were any elders with Anna being in charge. Especially when he said to Jeanne, he needed to make sure she did not do something like this again. If he heard a single word about it, he would not involve her again in any future fights. Reluctant as she may, she could only comply.
And a few days later, the continent was in chaos, especially for three influences, Joyful Union Sect, Fire God Clan, and Blackwade Clan.
Joyful Union Sect,
Inside the hall, the tenth elder took the lead of the meeting because of the absence of the sect master.
After being heavily injured and too much blood lost, the first elder was still unconscious. Anna wanted Jeanne to torture him in the cruelest way possible, but it turned out backfired, allowing him to escape.
The tenth elder looked at the half-empty meeting hall, sweating all over. At this time, Raku suddenly appeared in the meeting room with a pale looking face.
"Raku!" They stared at him, observing his condition.
"Tenth Elder, are you in charge here? Where is the sect master?" He asked with a tired tone, enduring the pain in his body.
"Ye-yes. Sect Master is calling our Grand Elder to prepare for a w Incursion to the Spirit Nest." He answered. First to Seventh Elders were not here also, so they also could not make an important decision here.
"I know you can't make a decision here, so just record my information here before I go to close door cultivation to recuperate."
The tenth elder looked around and nodded. "Alright. We need to trouble you."
He nodded. "First of all, their leader, a 1-Star Martial Emperor. His strength is equal to a 4-Star Martial Emperor. If I am not wrong, he could even use Sword and Spear simultaneously, so I can only relate to one person, and he is coming from the Willow Continent."
"Yes, we have got the information about it as well about him being that Blackwade clan princess's junior brother. The sixth elder is taking charge of our trump card later." The tenth elder stopped him since confirming his identity was enough.
"Alright. They have two 8-Star Martial Emperors, and most of them are 5-Star Martial Emperors. From what I see, they can have animals' parts like butterfly wings, horns, and the like. However, I can't confirm if it is their real form or because of Martial Arts. All I know is the moment they use it, they would get a sharp increase in strength." Raku pondered for a moment, recalling all the things he saw.
"I will note it down." He nodded.
"How is our situation?"
"They have attacked all the branches in the western continent within four days. That's why the third elder and fourth elder only found you after two days because we don't have time to react. As for the sect, we are planning to lock down our gate until further notice."
"Alright. I have finished the business here, so I am going to recuperate from my injury." He then left after confirming everything.
...
The same situation also occurred inside the Fire God Clan's meeting hall.
Sect Master gathered all elders to discuss the situation concerning their clan or even this continent's fate.
"I don't want to have a long meeting, so I will just give you the scenario in my mind." The sect master stood tall in the meeting room, looking down on the elders with a bored look. "First, if the Spirit Nest somehow wins this battle, the Joyful Union Sect will be destroyed, and their function as a stress reliever would be gone. The situation would become more chaotic in this continent.
"The Blackwade Clan would surely utilize this kind situation to wage war against us. Looking at the partnership between them and Spirit Nest, they would certainly bring Spirit Nest to attack us.
"Though we may have some good relationship with the Joyful Union Sect, we can't participate directly in this war unless we have a good reason... Unless we want to antagonize the western influences. There are only two options for this, it is either Blackwade Clan or Spirit Nest.
"If Blackwade Clan has a sign in using their troops, we can participate, but they would most likely not do this. In other words, we will use the second option, which is to rile up the Spirit Nest and use it as our reason to wage war."
"How do we do it?"
"The Auction." The sect master paused a little. "We will use the auction to rile up the Spirit Nest and use it to our advantage. Judging how the preparation would be, the war will take place after the Strength Plateau ends."
The elders closed their eyes, understanding his plan. The only problem would be how they could make the Spirit Nest angry.
Unexpectedly, the sect master used the most unique way. He said, "First Elder and Second Elder will prepare our force for war."
"Understood."
"Third Elder, I want you to take my idiotic son to the auction. Seeing how he is obsessed with Song Yu's beauty, we will use his idiocy to make him bid everything in the auction or all the items the Spirit Nest bid.
"Haha… Nothing is useless. Even the idiotic son of mine can be used for this." The sect master laughed, recalling his son, who was a typical arrogant young master. Looking at how useless he was, it would be better to sacrifice him to get a reason for a war. At the very least, he could prove to be useful for once.
The elders fell into silence, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. They also agreed with how his son acted, it would be better to get rid of him.
"If you don't have any questions, then dismiss." The sect master waved his hands, disappearing from the meeting room.
The elders then handled the rest.
…
In the Blackwade Clan,
As soon as she heard the news, Song Yu came to the meeting again, talking about Alex.
This time, the elders did not say a single thing, knowing there was big friction between Spirit Nest and Joyful Union Sect.
"Song Yu, what do you think about this?" Her father decided to ask as she knew Alex the most in this room.
"I… have told you all I know, and I am sure this incident will escalate to a big war that will shake the entire continent. Our problem right now is whether we will stay neutral or support one side."
"Neutral or join one side?" Her father frowned, pondering that question in his mind. He could easily predict if they joined one side, his daughter would likely join on Alex's side. After all, their influence had a cold war against the Joyful Union Sect and Fire God Clan.
Fire God Clan would be the trouble as they might participate in the war if they joined the war.
"Do you have any information about Spirit Nest?" He asked Song Yu.
Song Yu shook her head, hiding about their promised meeting in the auction. She wanted to gather her force to help Alex, but was unsure how to do it.
"We need to get all the information we can and decide whether to join this war or not. In any case, we won't sell any pills or whatever to the Joyful Union Sect until we have a clear grasp of the situation around."
"Oh, now you say it, I do have another thing to add, Father." Song Yu recalled another thing.
"Hmmm?" He narrowed his eyes.
"It would seem that he has a grudge against the Zhou Kingdom when he is a Martial Master or Martial Grandmaster, followed by the Southern Kingdom. The former has been razed to the ground while the latter has changed ownership.
"If I am not wrong, there is also certain friction with Mount Hua Sect, but because he does not really participate in that matter, Mount Hua Sect is spared after becoming a vassal of Heavenly Sword Sect.
"On the other hand, his ally was at their peak. Heavenly Sword Sect aside, even Rainbow Flower Sect got benefit and reached their golden age." Song Yu smiled, telling them how Alex treated his allies and enemies. This can be a normal fact, a warning, or a suggestion.
"..." Her father fell into silence, pondering this matter with great difficulty. "For the time being, we won't favor any of these two, aside from the business with Spirit Nest."
Song Yu shrugged her shoulders, not hoping anything and planning to do it in her own way. After all, if she succeeded in this, she could get rid of that annoying Joyful Union Sect. At that time, she could fight openly against the Fire God Clan with Blackwade Clan influence, paying back all the grievances she received.
She came out of the room, meeting with her grandfather. It could be said that her true ally, one that would do anything for her, was her grandfather.
"Fufu, little Song Yu, now the situation has escalated like this, are you going to help him?"
"As expected, Grandfather has realized Song Yu's intention." She smiled.
"There is one more problem if you want to help him." He said with a serious expression.
Song Yu tilted her head, asking, "What is it?"
"Now we don't sell anything to Joyful Union Sect and receive the business with Spirit Nest, no matter how we stay neutral, people will see we have joined hands with Spirit Nest. Luckily, the business with Spirit Nest has yet to reach anyone's ears.
"This might also be the reason why your junior brother only gave you a portion of the medicinal ingredients instead of all. With him selling the rest in the auction, he only used 1 million Spirit Gems worth of medicinal ingredients to buy our loyalty.
"Judging with the information we have now, it would seem he is planning to fight them right after the Strength Plateau event, and I believe Joyful Union Sect knows about it too, considering our preparation as well. In other words, he will come to the auction while Joyful Union Sect not, weakening them even further.
"This way, you can gather a certain amount of force to help him, but this is the problem. If you gather too much, the Fire God Clan will sniff it out and participate in this war."
"Yeah. That's why I am confused." She sighed.
"Let's talk if the Spirit Nest somehow comes victorious. They have five green boxes which can be used immediately. If we join this fight, he would certainly sell the boxes to us as thanks.
"Remember how he let us get the six hundred thousand Spirit Gems? We will get five million Spirit Gems if we sell all those medicinal herbs, which we will give him three million as part of the deal.
"By the time he sells those boxes to us, he will get the other two million. Which means, he can get all the value from those Medicinal Herbs. On the other hand, we will continue as his business partner, and only receive five green boxes as compensation while harboring the risk of the Fire God Clan intervention.
"Ah, what a guy, I really wish to have him in this family… If only any of my granddaughters have some kind of interest in this guy." He glanced at Song Yu.
She only rolled her eyes away, "If we don't join hands, we will get nothing. So, it's better to participate in this battle since we would have one less enemy to fight with."
"Haha, sure. That's why I call a helper for you since you can't gather the force yourself because of the Fire God Clan. Look." He smirked while pointing at the person behind her.
"!!!" Song Yu turned around, dropping her jaw in surprise. "You-!"
