Chapter 5318: Haughty (1) Chapter 5318: Haughty (1) In the Yalong city Lord’s residence, long Tianlin was seated in his study, and a black robed man was standing opposite him.
This black robed man was extrely petite, and his looks were rather unremarkable, and there was nothing special about him.
Most importantly, his strength was extrely weak, not even at the consolidated equipnt stage.
The Man in Black stood there and said in a deep voice, ” &Quot; city Lord, that’s the situation.
City Lord Zhao Hai and the others have killed more than 1200 Saints.
Only 300 of the 1500 people from the sacred Institute can make it back.
The sacred Institute has suffered a great loss this ti.
&Quot;
“Alright, I understand.
You may leave now.” Long Tianlin nodded.
The man responded, turned around, and left.
After the man had left, long Tianlin imdiately said, ” Grandfather, do you think Zhao Hai can defeat the sacred Institute?
”
&Quot; young master, in the past, I didn’t think that Zhao Hai and the others could defeat the sacred Institute.
After all, the sacred Institute’s strength is obvious.
But now, I’m not sure.
Young master, I can’t see through Zhao Hai.
It’s really beyond my expectation that he could defeat the sacred Institute under such circumstances.
I thought it would be good enough if he could hold his ground against the sacred Institute.
Now, it seems that I’ve underestimated him.
&Quot;
“Grandfather, Zhao Hai sent soone to inform us that he would send soone to contact the family Alliance.
He did indeed do so, but the result was that the people he sent didn’t care at all.
I heard that the Zhe family’s attitude towards their people was very bad.
If they really do work with Zhao Hai, what should we do?”
“Don’t worry, young master.
I don’t think those guys from the family Alliance will work with Zhao Hai.
Those guys from the family Alliance are no longer as good as their ancestors.
Those guys from the family Alliance were not bad in the past.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to force our long family to such an extent.
However, those guys from the family Alliance are not as good as before.
They have beco too proud and don’t care about anyone.”
&Quot; but now is not the ti.
This ti, Zhao Hai and his team defeated the sacred Institute.
They have fully demonstrated their strength.
No matter how arrogant the family Alliance is, they will cooperate with Zhao Hai, right?
”
&Quot; not necessarily, young master.
You know that the Zhe family and Zhao Hai have a feud.
One of their disciples died in the bewildernt City State, and I heard that the Zhe family even sent people to try to kill Zhao Hai.
They only gave up on that idea after Zhao Hai beca stronger and stronger.
But I don’t think it’s possible for Zhao Hai to work with them now.
Young master, don’t overestimate those guys.
To be honest, they’re far from being able to compare to their ancestors.
If it were their ancestors, it would be easier.
For the developnt of the family, they will definitely cooperate with Zhao Hai.
But now, those people in the family Alliance think that they have developed to the extre.
They don’t need to cooperate with others, let alone an enemy like Zhao Hai.
Therefore, when the news that Zhao Hai defeated the sacred Institute ca back, they may not cooperate with Zhao Hai.
On the contrary, they may cooperate with the sacred Institute.”
“Cooperate with the word” Saint “?
Were they crazy?
Was the sacred Institute better than Zhao Hai?
Didn’t they have any enmity with the sacred Institute?
Aren’t they afraid that the sacred Institute will co to their senses and swallow them up?”
“That’s why I said, young master, you shouldn’t overestimate them.
They’re a group of arrogant guys.
If they weren’t so arrogant, our long family wouldn’t have developed so smoothly over the years.
Besides, those guys don’t have any enmity with the sacred Institute.
It’s all thanks to the sacred Institute that they have their current status.
They really don’t have any direct conflicts with the sacred Institute.
Thus, it’s very likely that they’ve ford an alliance with the word “Holy.””
&Quot; if that’s the case, our days will be even worse.
However, our alliance with Zhao Hai will be even more reliable.
If Zhao Hai can defeat the sacred Institute in the future, it won’t be difficult for us to restore our rule over the dragonbeast City State.
Great-grandfather, what do you think the sacred Institute should do now?
”
&Quot; I don’t know yet, young master.
In fact, the sacred Institute has made many mistakes.
If they hadn’t made so many mistakes, Zhao Hai wouldn’t have defeated them so easily.
So, I really don’t know what they will do now.
Those guys of the sacred Institute are even more arrogant than those of the family Alliance.
I really don’t know what they can do.
&Quot;
&Quot; it seems that we can only wait and see what the sacred Institute and Zhao Hai will do next.
Before they have a result, we’d better not reveal our strength.
Compared to them, our long family is still too weak.
&Quot;
“It’s great that you think this way, young master.
Although our long family has recovered so of our strength, we’re still far from our peak.
If we were at our peak, we could directly participate in this matter, but we can’t do it now.
We should focus on recovering our strength.”
“Yes, grandfather, I understand.”
At the sa ti, a group of people was sitting in the living room of the Zhe family in Yalong city.
They were mbers of the family Alliance of Yalong city.
They were discussing the latest news they had received.
The head of the Zhe family, Zhe Yujiao, glanced at the people in the living room and said in a deep voice, ” &Quot; everyone has heard the news.
The sacred Institute was defeated.
Although it wasn’t a complete defeat, it was a miserable defeat.
What do you think about this?
” soone asked.
No one spoke.
Everyone was silent.
To be honest, they all thought that the sacred Institute would never lose.
It was because of this thought that they were so impolite to the emissaries sent by Zhao Hai.
But now, Zhao Hai had won.
It was hard for them to accept, and at the sa ti, it made them feel a trace of danger.
The mbers of the Zhe family glanced at them and said in a deep voice, ” “Is everyone still thinking of joining Zhao Hai and the others?
If that’s really what you’re thinking, then the Zhe family can only apologize.
We won’t join Zhao Hai’s side.”
Everyone looked at him, and one of them said, ” “Old Zhe, we know that you have a grudge against Zhao Hai.
However, is it because of that grudge that you’re not cooperating with Zhao Hai?”
The head of the Zhe family shook his head.
&Quot; of course not.
I didn’t work with Zhao Hai not because of hatred, but because of benefits.
The situation is clear now.
The anti-Saint Academy Alliance established by Zhao Hai is more stable now.
It won’t be as easy to break as it used to be.
They’re really United now.
As long as they unite, they’ll be qualified to challenge the Saint.
Although the Saint Academy has suffered losses, it’s not a defeat.
The foundation of the sacred Academy is not damaged, and they control many city-states.
Although those city-states are not directly controlled by the sacred Academy, the sacred Academy’s control over those city-states is much stronger than that of other city-states, so the sacred Academy still has the power to fight, but compared with the anti-sacred Academy Alliance, it may be a little worse.”
Everyone nodded in agreent.
Although they were as arrogant as long Tianlin’s grandfather had said, they were no idiots.
How could soone who could beco the clan head and rule such a large clan be an idiot?
they could all see that the victory of the anti-Saint Academy Alliance had United them.
It could be said that the Alliance had only been truly established now.
However, the situation of the sacred Institute wasn’t very good.
Although the failure of the sacred Institute this ti didn’t hurt their Foundation, it had lowered the prestige of the sacred Institute once again.
It had also broken the saying that the sacred Institute was invincible and showed people that the sacred Institute could also be defeated.
Therefore, the influence of the sacred Institute on the city-states had decreased again.
Correspondingly, so clans close to the sacred Institute might have other ideas now.
This had also reduced the strength of the sacred Institute a little.
If one only looked at the strength on the surface, they would have to admit that the sacred Institute’s strength was very weak.
The sacred Institute was no longer as strong as the anti-sacred Institute Alliance.
Seeing that everyone agreed with him, the head of the Zhe family continued, ” &Quot; as for the Yalong City State, we haven’t been involved in this matter, ” he said.
&Quot; this has put us in a very advantageous position.
We are not weak.
Whichever side we side we side with, it will cause a lot of trouble for the other side.
This is why I didn’t agree to cooperate with Zhao Hai before.
But now, we have to make a choice.
The sacred Institute has suffered a loss, and the anti-sacred Institute Alliance has won.
Both sides will enter a relatively peaceful period.
I’m afraid that there won’t be a big war between the sacred Institute and the anti-sacred Institute Alliance.
Under such circumstances, our Yalong City State will beco the focus of their struggle.
If we don’t make a choice, we might offend both sides.
So, it’s ti for us to make a choice.”
Everyone nodded in agreent.
What the head of the Zhe family had said made sense.
Yalong City State was a powerful force.
Neither the anti-Saint Academy Alliance nor the Saint Academy would turn a blind eye to this force.
When the two sides had been at war, they hadn’t had the ti to deal with them.
Now that both sides had entered a period of relative peace, they would definitely think of a way to resolve the situation in Yalong City State.
Those who were still very strong would always stand there and watch you fight.
Even if they were fighting, both sides would not feel at ease.
Therefore, if they did not make a statent at this ti, they might offend both sides.
What was worth ntioning was that the head of the Zhe family didn’t refer to them as the family Alliance, but instead used ” our Yalong City State ” to refer to himself.
It was clear that they no longer held the long family in any regard.
In their eyes, the Yalong City State was theirs, and the long family wasn’t even within their consideration.
Long Tianlin’s great-grandfather had said that their pride had reached its limit, and there was so truth to his words.
These people from the family Alliance were indeed too arrogant.
In their eyes, they had already taken complete control of the Yalong City State.
The Yalong City State was theirs, and the long family had probably ceased to exist in their eyes.
