“Mr. Ye, I can reveal a little.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian showed a faint smile. He turned around and said, “I hope everything you reveal has no trace, or it can represent your sincerity!”
“Alright, you win!”
“In fact, we are only responsible for containing the Tiancan Tower and the Dark Association branch here, and we have no intention of destroying them!”
“As for why, that is absolutely confidential, please Mr. Ye not to ask.”
Feichen stated that this was all he could reveal, and he hoped Ye Cangtian would not doubt him further.
He had no choice but to disclose this information.
Both the Tiancan Tower and the Dark Association branch had learned of their presence before they arrived.
After they entered Youming City, they sent out countless spies to investigate, forcing them to only send out a few spies themselves and not dare to go out.
To be honest, this had already made their lives miserable.
If the Yinzu were to investigate as well, their pressure would increase, their room for survival would shrink, and it was estimated that they would be completely exposed before long.
At that time, only destruction would await them!
Therefore, Feichen needed to seek allies and help.
Of course, all of this was Feichen’s idea, and he had not yet had time to discuss it with other factions.
There was no other way; if he couldn’t stabilize Ye Cangtian now, it would be difficult to contact him again in the future, so he could only make a unilateral decision.
Listening to Feichen’s words, Ye Cangtian’s eyes moved, connecting what the other party said with the situation in the past few days.
Soon, Ye Cangtian concluded that what the other party said was likely true.
The next moment, a playful smile appeared on Ye Cangtian’s face, and he said, “You discovered ancient tombs in the vicinity, right? And the tombs haven’t been looted yet…”
Upon hearing this, Feichen’s body trembled, and he gritted his teeth, “Mr. Ye, I don’t know what you are talking about.”
“Stop pretending, it’s not that you exposed a flaw.”
“You are not a force of Youming City. Without wars in the surrounding cities, you have no reason to travel thousands of miles to contain the forces of the Tiancan Tower and the branch!”
“The reason you are doing this is because you have detected ancient tombs and are worried that after looting the tombs, the Tiancan Tower and the branch will snatch the fruits of victory!”
“Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, you have already formed some kind of alliance. Otherwise, facing uneven distribution, internal conflict will break out, and you would not be willing to come and contain them!”
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and explained slowly.
How terrifying!
Listening to Ye Cangtian’s words, Feichen immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Ye Cangtian was indeed a top-ranked individual on the Dark Association’s bounty list. With just a little disclosure from him, the other party could follow the clues and uncover their true intentions.
Even secrets like alliances were seen through clearly!
This person’s mind was truly terrifying!
Fortunately, he was not an enemy of this person, otherwise, the alliance would have suffered heavy losses!
With this thought, Feichen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “Mr. Ye, I don’t understand what you are talking about. I’ve already said everything I can!”
“Alright, as you wish.”
“I was not interested in your intentions anyway.”
Seeing Feichen’s guilty look, Ye Cangtian saw through everything and shrugged, continuing with a smile, “Now, can you tell me your plan?”
Needless to say, the other party stopped him and revealed some secrets, so they must have something to ask for.
Ye Cangtian was now curious to hear it.
“Then I won’t be polite.”
Feichen took a sip of tea and said, “Actually, I’m worried that our affairs won’t be kept secret for long. If the Dark Association retaliates against us, please Mr. Ye and the Yinzu come to our rescue.”
After a pause, Feichen added, “Of course, if the Dark Association has troop movements, please Mr. Ye and the Yinzu also come to our aid.”
This was the Dark Association’s territory, and they didn’t know how long they could hide, nor did they know if those carrying out missions outside could avoid the Dark Association’s eyes.
Therefore, as a precaution, he felt that bringing the Yinzu along would be much more reliable.
“I’m sorry, but in the previous operation, the Yinzu suffered heavy losses and is temporarily unable to act! However, I can consider it personally!”
“But why should I risk my life to help you!”
“You know, there is still a Earth-level attendant in the Dark Association branch whom I cannot contend with!”
Ye Cangtian glanced at the other party and said indifferently.
After all, they were not allies, and this was their first cooperation without any basis for cooperation. Ye Cangtian did not want to work for free.
Of course, this was also to gain the other party’s trust. Only cooperation that connected mutual interests was the most solid.
“Those crystal stones and treasures, you might not care for a small amount, and we can’t afford to give more.”
Hearing this, Feichen remained silent for a long time. Finally, he opened his eyes and continued, “How about this, the Sanhe Gate owes you a favor. If the Yinzu ever needs anything in the future, the Sanhe Gate will go through fire and water for you!”
“I don’t accept empty promises!”
Ye Cangtian glanced at the other party and continued, “Moreover, the favor of the Sanhe Gate is too small. If your alliance owes a favor and can guarantee repayment, I might consider it!”
“Mr. Ye, your request is a bit harsh!”
Feichen frowned deeply. The other party was indeed asking for the moon.
If all the members of the Yinzu were mobilized, he might have been able to accept it, but now that it was only Ye Cangtian alone, he felt that the favor of the Sanhe Gate was enough.
“Are my conditions harsh? Do you know I’m risking my life!”
“Moreover, besides me, who else can stop Po Xiao?”
Ye Cangtian’s gaze fell on Feichen, and he said calmly.
Powers were inherently competitive. Although the other party greatly feared the Yinzu and had revealed some of the truth,
this did not mean that the other party would not use him, nor did it mean that they would not take advantage of his misfortune.
What’s more, the truth revealed was very limited, and even the name of this alliance was not disclosed. Therefore, Ye Cangtian naturally would not be polite.
“This…”
Feichen hesitated upon hearing this.
Although he did not want to accept Ye Cangtian’s exorbitant request, what Ye Cangtian said was also true.
Let alone stopping Po Xiao, even dealing with the Tiancan Tower or the branch alone, they had no absolute certainty.
If they wanted to stop the powerful Po Xiao, perhaps only Ye Cangtian could reluctantly do it.
After pondering for a long time, Feichen said, “Mr. Ye, achieving your requirements is not something I can decide alone. I need to go back and discuss it.”
The Sanhe Gate was just the sect leader of one of more than a dozen factions.
Their status in the alliance’s operation was equivalent to that of a great captain of the Dark Association. He could not represent the alliance in such matters, nor could he make false promises.
After all, lies would eventually be exposed, and the Yinzu would likely come seeking revenge.
Therefore, to avoid trouble and to get help, he could only stabilize Ye Cangtian for the time being.
“Alright, I’ll give you time to discuss.”
“Within three days, I expect your answer. If not, it’s no deal!”
Ye Cangtian glanced at Feichen, and as if remembering something, he continued, “Oh, and by the way, I hope to see the person who can truly make decisions among you!”
With that, Ye Cangtian left the tea house.
“This Ye Cangtian…”
Looking at the departing figure, Feichen gritted his teeth fiercely.
He had only exchanged a few words with the other party, but he felt as if he had endured countless torments, completely at a disadvantage.
With an unintentional remark, the other party had followed the clues to uncover their true purpose. Such analytical skills were truly terrifying.
