Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God

Watching as several lords successively advocated for Sky Wolf Sect to serve as foreign aid, the Eastern Sea King was also momentarily ensnared in silence.

His eyes flickered, seemingly pondering how to decide on the matter.

Seeing that the Eastern Sea King had not yet made a decision, Ma Xianhong spoke up again, "I forgot to introduce to everyone, these two behind me are the left and right protectors of the Sky Wolf Sect!"

"Both of them are at the pinnacle of the Great Grandmaster realm, and there are not a few strong ones in the Sky Wolf Sect!"

As these words fell, everyone's gaze gathered on the two elders behind Ma Xianhong.

Being watched by everyone, the two elders also displayed an undisturbed demeanor.

One of them said coldly, "Not to hide from you all, in addition to us two being at the pinnacle of the Great Grandmaster, there are five other Great Grandmasters at this peak in our sect!"

"Moreover, the Vice Sect Hierarch of our sect is at the semi-War King realm, and the Sect Hierarch has already stepped into the War King realm!"

Upon saying this, the faces of these two protectors from the Sky Wolf Sect both revealed a hint of proud smiles.

A force with a War King at the helm, how could it possibly be weak!

Hearing his words, the Eastern Sea King took a sharp breath.

A War King, a semi-War King, plus no fewer than seven Great Grandmasters at their peak!

The strength of the Sky Wolf Sect was already sufficient to contend with the upper echelon military force of the Eastern Sea.

It is known that the Sky Wolf Sect had developed to this extent in no more than three years.

In just three years, to have developed to such a level, one could see just how profound the foundation of the Sky Wolf Sect was.

If the Sky Wolf Sect was really willing to serve as foreign aid and help the Eastern Sea Army encircle Sky Wolf Island, they might be able to eradicate Sky Wolf Island in one fell swoop!

"Eastern Sea King, you should not hesitate any longer. The Northern Liao King only has these few people with him."

"I admit their strength is not weak, but compared to the Sky Wolf Sect, it ultimately pales significantly!"

"Furthermore, the Northern Liao King has killed the Eastern Lord, and we are destined not to cooperate with him. Under such circumstances, are you still unable to make a decision?"

A lord looked toward the Eastern Sea King and said with a grave voice.

Without waiting for the Eastern Sea King to speak, Chen Dao said coldly, "Are you questioning our strength?"

"What qualifications does this mere Sky Wolf Sect have to compare with the Great One!"

"If the Great One wishes, he alone would be sufficient to annihilate the Sky Wolf Sect!"

Ye Ling waved his hand nonchalantly, smiling, "Whether it's the matter of Sky Wolf Island or the matter of the Sky Wolf Sect, both are the affairs of the Eastern Sea and none of our concern."

"No need to say more; it's good enough when the Eastern Sea King makes his decision."

Hearing this, Chen Dao nodded disdainfully, then ceased speaking.

And the Eastern Sea King also looked towards Ye Ling and asked gravely, "Northern Liao King, in your opinion, between you and the Sky Wolf Sect, who is stronger, who is weaker?"

"Hehe, does the Eastern Sea King not trust in our strength?"

Ye Ling shook his head and laughed, then continued, "If it were not for the fact that you, the Eastern Sea King, and my master are old acquaintances, I wouldn't waste my time here with you."

"Since the Eastern Sea King does not wish to trust our strength, then we will take our leave now."

Upon saying that, Ye Ling stood up and headed straight out of the council hall, without any intention of lingering.

Chen Dao and others also got up to follow, and in the glances they cast towards the Eastern Sea King and others, disdain was clear to see.

"Northern Liao King! Wait a moment..."

The hurried shout of the Eastern Sea King came from behind, yet Ye Ling's steps did not pause at all.

Not until Ye Ling, accompanied by Chen Dao and others, had left the council hall had the Eastern Sea King managed to express his words of detention.

The Eastern Sea King's expression was conflicted, mostly because he couldn't set aside his pride as the Eastern Sea King, and thus he resisted saying the words to detain them.

"Heh, I believe the Northern Liao King must know that he and his men are no match for Sky Wolf Island; that's why he left so decisively!"

"Eastern Sea King, you needn't agonize over it anymore. Since they have already departed, rather than wasting time fretting here, better to discuss potential cooperation with the two protectors from Night Sky Sect!"

Ma Xianhong said with a cold laugh.

Another lord also spoke up in agreement, "Eastern Sea King, I think Lord Ma's suggestion is sensible."

"The fact that Ye Ling and the others left so abruptly, likely means they too know they are no match for Sky Wolf Island and preferred to leave without turning back rather than face humiliation."

"Instead of thinking about them, better to discuss terms with the protectors of the Night Sky Sect!"

After pondering for a moment, the Eastern Sea King finally sighed and nodded.

He looked towards the protectors of the Night Sky Sect and said in a deep voice, "If this king wants the Night Sky Sect's powerful forces to help my Eastern Sea forces annihilate Sky Wolf Island, what are the terms of the Night Sky Sect?"

"Our terms at Night Sky Sect are straightforward! Just allow us to expand in the Eastern Seas," replied one of the protectors from the Night Sky Sect.

Upon hearing this, the Eastern Sea King nodded.

The terms of the Night Sky Sect are much similar to Ye Ling's terms.

The Eastern Sea King already didn't set his heart on these matters, as in two or three years he was set to abdicate anyway. Even if a colossal entity emerged within the Eastern Seas, the next Eastern Sea King, not him, would have to worry about it.

The Eastern Sea King was ultimately elderly; he was all too aware that allowing the Night Sky Sect to develop like this was akin to nurturing a tiger, a source of future trouble.

The Martial Alliance was somewhat acceptable, seeing as it was a force established following the decrees issued by the ruler of the Imperial Capital.

But the Night Sky Sect emerged mysteriously three years ago; no one knew if there were other forces behind it, and their ultimate motives were unclear.

The Eastern Sea King inwardly sighed, thinking that if it were during his younger and stronger days, such forces as the Night Sky Sect would have been eradicated by his hand, leaving no room for them to negotiate terms with him!

"Eastern Sea King, I believe the Night Sky Sect's terms are very reasonable, and if the Night Sky Sect grows strong, it can also consistently provide core military power to the Eastern Sea forces!"

"This matter benefits both parties exceptionally well!" said Ma Xianhong in a deep voice.

The Eastern Sea King, however, did not immediately respond, merely glancing at Ma Xianhong before choosing not to say more.

Seeing the Eastern Sea King pondering the pros and cons, Ma Xianhong frowned slightly, his gaze furtively turned towards the other lords.

Noticing Ma Xianhong's look, an elderly lord immediately spoke up, "Eastern Sea King, what are you still hesitating about?"

"With the Night Sky Sect's strength, if they are willing to assist as external support, we can certainly annihilate Sky Wolf Island, this thorn in our side!"

The Eastern Sea King's brow furrowed and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes.

A mere lord now dared to press him, the Eastern Sea King, step by step.

After a moment of contemplation, the Eastern Sea King finally said in a deep voice, "Allow this king one more day to consider this matter."

"By sunset tomorrow, this king will give you an answer!"
