Chapter 914: The Powers Of Allies

"And I reckon you have more than just the Fenlong Kingdom and its clans?" The Patriarch guessed.

"I do." Lin Mu nodded his head. "The other big ally we have that is close to Gu Yao… He is Wu Hei, the son of Wu Xun and Gu Yao's Nephew." Lin Mu revealed.

"Impossible!" the elders exclaimed.

"That is the truth. I've fought Gu Yao myself and he said this to my face." Lin Mu stated firmly.

"This… this changes things…" the High elders muttered.

"Now you see what I mean by Gu Yao and the Northern Tribes having deep reach? They managed to make one of their own the minister of an entire kingdom. And this is what we know for sure, there might be more that we are in the dark about." Lin Mu stated.

"Didn't Wu Xun die a few months ago?" A junior elder asked.

"He did indeed. We got the official report too." Another senior elder replied.

High Elder Sunsen seemed to have thought of something and furrowed his brows.

"The death of Wu Xun… does this have anything to do with Wei Hei and you?" High Elder Sunsen asked.

~Sigh~

Hearing this, Lin Mu sighed and shook his head.

"I don't know exactly. I haven't had proper contact with Wu Hei in a long time since he is being watched by Gu Yao and his men. He broke out of Gu Yao's Human controlling blood curse and Gu Yao probably suspects this.

There is a chance that he might have killed his father, though I don't know how that would help in reducing the suspicion since he has taken over the position his father was in now." Lin Mu explained.

Hearing this, You Yi couldn't help but raise his brows.

"We can try and make contact with him through our sources in the Shuang Qian capital." You Yi spoke.

"No… that might not be good. At least not until we have all our allies under the oath. But even then there are chances Gu Yao has spies within our ranks that include the lower ranked people.

We might end up leaking his stance that way. It is better if I do it through my own contacts." Lin Mu replied.

"Very well. Do what you deem fit." Patriarch You Yi accepted.

You Yi had understood that even if Lin Mu might be young, he had a way of his own in both tactics and politics. Additionally, he had the strength to back it up, thus it could not be questioned either.

After this, they talked for a few more hours about the different matters and Lin Mu got to know about the other two top sects that were in the Long Cloud alliance as well. While he did know about the general information of the sects, the Patriarch told him about the details and how their alliance worked, and what they dealt with.

The Black Dune Sect was ranked just below the Long Cloud sect and was number six in the ranking. It was located to the north west part of the continent on the edge of a desert called as the Sha De desert.

It was the biggest desert of the Great Zhou continent, even bigger than the Broken Sand desert. Though it was more populated than the Broken Sand desert too. There were actually three small kingdoms that were located in the desert and the sect was there as well.

Plus, if one went north from the Black Dune sect, they would arrive at the Centennial Sword sect. Of course, it was not close and one would have to travel for months to arrive there.

The Black Dune sect was mostly specialized in combat and had a lot of Qi skills. Their members were said to be greatly enthusiastic about competing for strength and they had a lot of competitions.

The only reason why they were ranked lower than the Long Cloud sect was their foundation. The Long Cloud sect was older than them and had existed for longer, allowing them to have more experts.

Then the third sect in the alliance was the Light Harmony sect. This too was located in the Eastern Ming Dynasty along with the Rainbow pill sect. And similar to them, they also specialized in alchemical pills.

It was even said that the Light Harmony sect was founded by one of the disciples of the Rainbow Pill sect that was exiled from the sect. The reason for their banishment was unknown, but it is said that the disciple did not agree with the sect and decided to make his own.

The sect too rose to prominence and managed to become one of the top ten sects. It was ranked at the eighth position, just below the Ripple mist sect. Since they were specialized in alchemical pills and had access to the plethora of spirit herbs that grew in the Eastern Ming dynasty, they were in charge of producing and supplying the pills the alliance would need.

In exchange, the other two sects would also provide them with support and the resources they lacked. The Black Dune sect lacked resources the most due to their location, but made up in terms of manpower.

In fact, they had more disciples than the Long Cloud sect, but lacked strong elders. If not for that, they might have managed to take the Long Cloud sect's position.

The role of the Black Dune sect was to provide their members in case a conflict broke out and they needed more people. 

The alliance of the three sects was of mutual benefit and a balance was achieved among them. While it could not be said that everyone was contributing their 100% it was still a stable alliance.

Lin Mu got several ideas after hearing it all and knew that the Kong Plane would serve as their greatest strength.

'The Black Dune sect will benefit the most and we can make use of them since they will be able to provide support quickly with their members while the Light Harmony sect can support the logistics..' Lin Mu analyzed.
