Chapter 2038: Chapters 1984–1985: A Bunch of Vermin
“Now we still need to wait for the right opportunity. All parties are preparing for war, and we need to be patient. We can push things from behind the scenes, but we shouldn’t get involved directly just yet,” Zhao Baiyang expressed his thoughts.
He was very appreciative of the plans currently devised by Tie Qianshan and the others, and said, “Your plan to encourage various forces to begin war preparations and then take the opportunity to annex some of the immortal sects’ resources is excellent. It can definitely be further promoted.”
“Have you currently chosen suitable targets?”
“We haven’t got any targets yet. This plan has only been in motion for a short time, and at the moment, all sides are boosting their combat power on the surface, but whether it’s just a bluff or they’re genuinely taking action is still unknown,” Tie Qianshan shook his head and said.
Their plan wasn’t wrong, but there hasn’t been enough time. Especially for an immortal sect, to truly bring out its foundation and fully transform it requires time with no shortcuts.
Now, the Heterodox Alliance shows a proactive attitude, and it appears that various immortal sects are following suit. But this time is too short, and those who sincerely want to transform their status haven’t spread their wings, while those feigning can follow suit at any moment.
The fact is that at present, the distance hasn’t really been widened. We can only wait for some time, allowing both parties to separate a distance, so when they make their move, there will be others to follow.
If we rashly act now, some ambitious immortal sects that haven’t yet transformed their combat strength won’t have the capability even if they have the ideas, which would be somewhat awkward.
By that time, the Heterodox Alliance would stand out, easily becoming the common target of all sides.
Every immortal sect wishes to suppress others’ development space to seize benefits for themselves, but only when most of them act can the law not blame the multitude.
If others haven’t acted and only we do, then we’re the standout, and those who originally agreed but lack strength and opportunity will likely be even more dissatisfied.
“It’s alright, we can wait for the time to mature. I believe after this Chaos War, all parties will be more proactive in preparing for battle and accumulating strength, as they’ve all recognized the crisis,” Zhao Baiyang judged.
Even if not personally involved in this matter, it’s totally imaginable the terrifying situation when nearly twenty Taoist Monarch powerhouses confront each other in the Chaos Void, with a great war about to break out.
At that moment, even if all parties don’t want to act, knowing they’re not truly ready, they also understand they’re being pushed into a corner, and a careless move could drag them into war.
Everyone will realize one thing, that the development of the situation has exceeded expectations. Sometimes the initiation of a great war is not something one or two Taoist Monarchs can control.
In such a situation, no one can confidently say that everything will proceed according to the original track, and war could break out at any time.
Therefore, to avoid new unforeseen events, the current urgent task is naturally to transform one’s foundation into combat strength, ensuring there’s a contingency plan when a real war breaks out, instead of being caught off guard.
After all, with this as a precedent, no one can guarantee that the same thing won’t happen next time, and it will be resolved easily.
After all, this time, the consensus was that no one wished for a real fight, but what if next time, some are prepared?
It is unknown whether the other immortal sects are clear about this, but the many forces participating this time will inevitably be on guard.
The Xuantian Sect, facing the Taoist School’s poaching, doesn’t show any anger but instead decisively participates actively in this alliance, aside from considering the Taoist School’s power, why shouldn’t they see this scene?
“However, although the timing isn’t ripe, it doesn’t hinder us from first setting a few hypothetical targets,” Zhao Baiyang’s lips curled into a cold smile as he said slowly.
When he said this, Tie Qianshan and others immediately understood, aware of Zhao Baiyang’s intentions.
Although the humiliation given by the Xuantian Sect this time could not be immediately retaliated against, after all, the Xuantian Sect is a top immortal sect, it doesn’t mean they can’t target their wings.
The vassal sects surrounding the Xuantian Sect are many, and with the Xuantian Sect’s shelter, they have gained control over many resources, which the Heterodox Alliance covets greatly.
If those sects are smart, preparing actively for war this time, then the Heterodox Alliance naturally has no way out. But if the other side doesn’t respond in time, the Heterodox Alliance won’t mind taking the opportunity to reap benefits.
Anyway, given the current attitude of the Xuantian Sect, it’s destined that even if they become temporary allies, they will be allies in discord rather than harmony. Such an alliance might not even compare to the Hell Demon Sect and the Ten Thousand Beast Demonic Sect, at least these two have not ignored the insult towards the Heterodox Alliance.
Considering the current situation, Zhao Baiyang and others understand that if their alliance doesn’t do very well, there’s still a chance to resolve grievances and unite sincerely.
But if things go smoothly, and the opponent can’t resist at all, sweeping forward with unstoppable momentum, facing huge benefits, internal contradictions are destined to grow larger.
This illustrates the complexity of the current situation, the complexity of human nature, and the conflict of individual interests.
“How can you accomplish anything with this bunch of vermin!” Pang Hong snorted coldly, with an expression of discontent.
