Chapter 946: Chapter 946

After Little Qing’s death, Yi Tianxing had already set this matter aside for the moment.

Now, he deliberately shifted the topic, directly addressing the main reason for his presence here.

Hearing his words, Chen Bao, Sun Daniu, and others at the sect gate entrance almost simultaneously frowned.

The sea region where Golden Dawn Island is located indeed now belongs under the banner of the Netherworld Sect, an undeniable fact.

As one of the forces within the Netherworld Sect’s territory, logically and emotionally, the Black Water Lineage should follow the commands of the Netherworld Sect.

Yi Tianxing’s words at this moment are impeccable and flawless.

Listening to other’s orders, working for other forces, may be hard to accept, but from a moral standpoint, Yi Tianxing holds the righteousness, and indeed, they occupy the side of reason.

Although in this survival-of-the-fittest Primordial Land, strength is the only unchanging truth, the problem is, the Black Water Lineage’s strength seems not to match that of the Netherworld Sect, which commands countless regions.

Under such circumstances, what can the people of Black Water Lineage do? Follow current novels on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽

Resist firmly, refuse to follow the orders of the Netherworld Sect?

The newly occupying Netherworld Sect is indeed looking for a target to establish authority.

If Chen Bao and others truly reject the matters proposed by Yi Tianxing at this moment, both sides will undoubtedly stand against each other, and Black Water Immortal Mountain will surely become the example used by the Netherworld Sect to shock many monkeys.

Such a thing, Chen Hai, Sun Daniu, and others certainly do not want to see happen.

Especially when their own ancestor, Chen Hai, is in secluded cultivation and hasn’t come out, they don’t want this even more.

Yet if they are to agree to become a subordinate force under the Netherworld Sect, to follow their orders, the people of Black Water Lineage will undoubtedly feel very uncomfortable and unwilling to accept.

After exchanging glances and whispering for quite a while, Chen Bao stepped forward finally to speak: "Taoist Friend Yi, can you explain well to us, once we submit to your Netherworld Sect, what rights can we enjoy? And what obligations must we fulfill?"

If it is merely a nominal submission, the people of Black Water Lineage can barely accept it.

If any worst-case scenario arises, and after they become one of the Netherworld Sect’s subordinate forces, some relatively harsh conditions fall upon them, then Chen Bao and others can only stall for time and plan longer term.

"Ladies and gentlemen, occupying such a barren land as Golden Dawn Island, yet you can produce several Daluo Golden Immortals; it must be said, your Black Water Immortal Mountain indeed has its unique features."

"With such strength, within this sea region, you are indeed enough to claim leadership, provided that this is under the precondition that our Netherworld Sect hasn’t taken over this sea region."

"To put it bluntly, before our Netherworld Sect, your strength is somewhat insufficient, and if you truly anger us leading to us deciding to destroy you, deploying one or two Quasi-Saints at random, do you think your Black Water Immortal Mountain can withstand?"

"Of course, unless absolutely necessary, we certainly won’t proceed this way."

"After all, our Netherworld Sect still adheres to reason, as long as you obediently follow our commands, we have no reason to take action against your Black Water Immortal Mountain, right?"

Speaking of his current Netherworld Sect, Yi Tianxing had a proud look on his face, intentionally puffing out his chest.

Though his words seemed to argue facts and reasons, his tone indeed contained boasting, with a few obvious threats intertwined within.

While speaking, he also watched Chen Bao and the others’ reaction through the corner of his eye.

Upon clearly seeing their expressions sour, he confidently smiled, promptly halting his words without continuing directly.

The Black Water Immortal Mountain before him, its strength unexpectedly surprised him; this indeed was true, but such a strong force within this sea region was second to none.

Aside from their own Netherworld Sect headquarters, Yi Tianxing could confirm, among his numerous subordinate forces, none comes close to matching Black Water Immortal Mountain’s overall strength.

Such a formidable subordinate force, if subdued by Yi Tianxing personally, upon returning to the Netherworld Sect, it is certainly a significant achievement.

Having this significant merit as a foundation, it has already proven that Yi Tianxing can hold a high position within the Sect not only because of having a good father but also due to his undeniable personal abilities.

Setting aside the matter of his maid Little Qing’s death, apart from the power possessed by Chen Bao, Sun Daniu, and others causing him some concern, the main reason also lies in his desire to smoothly incorporate Black Water Immortal Mountain under their command.

Hinting at several threats somewhat, informing these people of the power held by the Netherworld Sect, this has been raised only to the necessary extent; Yi Tianxing naturally wouldn’t go too far or overdo things.

After all, due to the matter of Little Qing, although Yi Tianxing and the Black Water Lineage people felt a bit unpleasant, since he already had other thoughts, naturally he wouldn’t truly tear apart their relationship with Chen Bao and others.

Chen Bao, Sun Daniu, and others’ reactions fall into Yi Tianxing’s eyes; leisurely smiling, he continued again, saying: "After becoming a subordinate force under our Netherworld Sect, I will strive for the greatest preferential treatment for you."

"For other forces, every ten years, we will take at least half of all resources acquired related to cultivation; we shelter them; it is the price they should pay."

"As for your Black Water Immortal Mountain, I can ask my father to speak well for you, letting the Sect reduce your resource tribute to around thirty percent."

"Besides, due to unstable times, although temporarily calm now, in other regions, conflicts between our Netherworld Sect and other forces still continue."

"All our subordinate forces must dispatch personnel to join our side’s camp and engage in battle against other forces; in this regard, your Black Water Lineage definitely cannot be exempt."

"I already strive for maximal preferential treatment in terms of resource quota, but in terms of personnel, you must provide more."

"For instance, cultivators at the Daluo Golden Immortal level, you must dispatch at least two or three to silence others."

Upon speaking, Yi Tianxing sprayed his words enthusiastically, first demonstrating their Netherworld Sect’s might, then proposing some slightly harsh yet somewhat acceptable conditions.

In his eyes, unless the Black Water Immortal Mountain people act recklessly truly wanting to contend with their Netherworld Sect, otherwise, though discontent may linger, they can only accept these conditions he proposed.
