"I must say, your idea is indeed good."

Halfway through his speech, Qiu Yinshan hesitated momentarily, then continued, "However, I can’t represent everyone inside Profound Ice Pavilion to make a decision. Although I agree with your idea, I still need to go back and discuss with everyone."

Huo Yuan smiled nonchalantly, nodding as he said, "Don’t worry. As long as you give me a reply quickly, I will wait patiently for your answer."

"We must reach an agreement in a short time, then quickly form an elite team to launch a surprise attack on Wang Zhan and his people. If we can annihilate them all, it will bring us great benefits."

"Even if we can’t achieve that, we can still inflict damage on them."

Qiu Yinshan nodded. He was certainly aware of the pros and cons involved.

"Moreover, as far as I know, although Wang Zhan has quite a few people under his hand, they are all self-serving individuals."

Huo Yuan spoke again, "Therefore, we just need to seize this opportunity to launch a fierce assault. Presumably, those people will not dare to continue confronting us, nor continue to cling to Wang Zhan’s side. Perhaps we can absorb all of them into our ranks."

"At that time, we might even be able to challenge Luoxing Mountain."

Qiu Yinshan nodded heavily and said with a smile, "In that case, you wait for my good news. It won’t be long before I convince everyone inside Profound Ice Pavilion to join us quickly."

"Good."

Huo Yuan smiled with satisfaction.

Meanwhile, inside Tian Pavilion.

"Didn’t expect the domain lord to arrive. Pardon us for not welcoming you from afar."

Upon receiving the news of Dong Tianlei’s arrival, Wang Zhan immediately rushed to the reception hall. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

He glanced at Dong Tianlei sitting to the side, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, then he said with a smile, "I wonder what made you find time to come here?"

"Brother Wang, that’s where you’re wrong."

Dong Tianlei glanced around the hall’s furnishings before his gaze returned to Wang Zhan, saying, "I never imagined that you’ve already established your own faction in such a short time. Truly impressive."

"You’ve created such a grand scale that even my Luoxing Mountain can’t compare to your power here. Truly remarkable."

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Wang Zhan’s mouth, as he shook his head and said, "You’re too kind. It’s really just a minor hustle and bustle, and those who visit Tian Pavilion do so because they think highly of me. Compared to Luoxing Mountain, I’m just dealing with childish behaviors."

Dong Tianlei shook his head, "You shouldn’t say that. From what I understand, with my current power, I still can’t compare to you. I’ve heard you have several experts here, and if we were to cross paths, perhaps even I wouldn’t be a match for them."

"We should stop flattering each other."

Wang Zhan changed the subject, asking again, "I wonder if there’s something you want to discuss with me, given your sudden visit?"

One never visits the shrine without a reason, Dong Tianlei certainly wouldn’t come idly.

Upon hearing this, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Dong Tianlei’s mouth, and he said, "Can’t hide anything from you."

"Indeed, I have something to discuss with you. Of course, this is not only for your good but also for myself."

Wang Zhan was momentarily stunned, "Tell me about it."

"As far as I know, Skyfire Mountain has already connected with the people from Profound Ice Pavilion, and Huo Yuan and Qiu Yinshan have already met. It seems they have reached some kind of agreement. It won’t be long before these two forces merge into one. Their purpose is simple: they intend to join forces against you. So, we need to come up with a strategy in a short time to counter them. Otherwise, be careful they catch us off guard."

Dong Tianlei said slowly.

Wang Zhan’s fingers tapped the table lightly twice, and he frowned, saying, "Isn’t Skyfire Mountain and Profound Ice Pavilion supposed to be like water and fire? How could they suddenly come together? Plus, Huo Yuan and Qiu Yinshan have deep hatred. How could they really turn hostility into friendship?"

Heh...

Upon hearing this from Wang Zhan, a slight smile always appeared at the corner of Dong Tianlei’s mouth, shaking his head as he said, "It seems you still don’t understand the people on the Star War Battlefield. Here, there’s never an everlasting enemy, only eternal interests. Your presence must have threatened them, so they’ve tried to join forces against you."

"Of course, since I’m here, I’ve already come up with a way to counter them. I wonder if you’re willing to do so."

Wang Zhan immediately understood his meaning. He glanced at Dong Tianlei, smiled, and said, "If I’m not mistaken, you should want to unite with me and then we can jointly oppose them. In this way, both sides can alleviate the current situation and ease your pressure. After all, if they really join forces and take me down, the next person they target will be you, am I right?"

In fact, Dong Tianlei came here for this purpose.

To discuss the matter of cooperation with Wang Zhan.

However, he didn’t expect Wang Zhan to see through it so clearly.

Wang Zhan continued, "You don’t need to keep running circles around me here. Rest assured, I’m aware of the pros and cons, so I need to think carefully. Also, now is not the time to dwell on those grievances and vendettas. After all, I have so many people to support behind me, and I can’t just let them lose their livelihood."

Dong Tianlei said nothing.

Not only had Wang Zhan’s strength improved to a certain degree, but he also felt that Wang Zhan’s temperament seemed to be changing.

This mature demeanor did not match his age at all.

Just as the two were speaking, they saw Xiang Tian stride in from outside the door.

In the blink of an eye, Xiang Tian had already walked up to the two of them. Impatiently, he glanced at Dong Tianlei sitting beside them, then frowned and said, "I was wondering who had entered our Sky Pavilion. So it’s none other than the esteemed Lord of Luoxing Mountain."

"But our place here is really too small. I’m afraid it can’t accommodate you, so if there’s nothing major, it’s best you leave early."

Are we being asked to leave?

Dong Tianlei had always tolerated things step by step, all because of Wang Zhan, and had nothing to do with Xiang Tian and the others. If Wang Zhan wasn’t backing them, Dong Tianlei would have surely acted long ago to kill the three of them.

Now seeing Xiang Tian still being aggressive, Dong Tianlei’s expression changed slightly as he spoke calmly, "This is not the time for you to speak. Leave quickly before I lose my temper, otherwise..."

Before he could finish, Xiang Tian’s eyes had already turned red.

During this time, he had been thinking about matters concerning Luoxing Mountain and wanting to deal with Dong Tianlei.

After all, Dong Tianlei had been of no help to him and almost got him killed in the Water Prison.

So Xiang Tian harbored a deep grudge against him.

Seeing Xiang Tian about to act, Wang Zhan, standing to the side, coughed lightly and gave Xiang Tian a look.

Xiang Tian hesitated for a moment before clenching his fist and standing next to Wang Zhan, then leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Brother Wang, this guy definitely doesn’t have good intentions, so we better not get too entangled with him, wouldn’t it be better to leave him far behind?"

"Moreover, I think with our strength, it wouldn’t be difficult to stop him."

"Most importantly, if we are able to kill him, then we won’t need to bother with those so-called Elders again, and can break into Luoxing Mountain to complete the first fusion. Isn’t that good?"

After all, Luoxing Mountain is also a significant force.

If we can absorb Luoxing Mountain’s forces, our power will advance to the next level.

However, Wang Zhan frowned and said, "What nonsense are you spouting here?"

"If you keep saying these things, don’t blame me for not being polite."

Xiang Tian was stunned, quickly saying, "I was thinking about your interests, after all, Dong Tianlei isn’t anything good, and I could tell that he initially just wanted to use you, he had absolutely no other intentions, why should we continue to pay attention to such a person?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan’s gaze gradually turned colder.

He knew there was some hatred between Xiang Tian and Dong Tianlei, but now was not the time to discuss these things.

If the two were to really fight here, it wouldn’t benefit anyone.

Furthermore, Dong Tianlei’s strength is overwhelming; he didn’t want to destroy the Star Domain he had just built.

"You may leave."

Wang Zhan’s attitude was very firm.

And Xiang Tian, standing aside, frowned and said, "Brother Wang, have you forgotten..."

Before he could finish, Wang Zhan’s gaze had already fallen on him, those cold eyes like two sharp swords.

In an instant, Xiang Tian shut his mouth, not daring to speak further.

After Xiang Tian left, Wang Zhan then looked at Dong Tianlei, full of apology, and said, "I’m really sorry, that’s just his character, please don’t mind."

After all, under no circumstances could he fall out with Dong Tianlei.

Moreover, among the current three major forces, Luoxing Mountain was the strongest; Wang Zhan naturally needed to consider more.

Dong Tianlei waved his hand and said, "I understand his character, so I won’t bother with it."

"I just wonder what you’ve decided?"

"Will you cooperate with us, or continue to fight those two major forces alone?"
