Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Faced with the questioning of the Thunder Serpent Immortal King, Ze Yang Immortal Lord broke out in a cold sweat. After all, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King was an Immortal King, and the Thunder Serpent Sect seemed to have had some conflicts with the Xuan Yue Palace not long ago.

Now that someone from a subordinate force of the Xuan Yue Palace has come to the Lei She Sect, it's normal that the Lei She Immortal King doesn't treat him well.

Immortal Lord Zeyang quickly calmed himself down and then said, "I have come here today to discuss a deal with Sect Master Leishe."

Upon hearing this, Thunder Serpent Immortal King chuckled, "A deal? You, an elder from a sect affiliated with the Profound Moon Palace, come to an enemy sect to negotiate a deal?"

"I am very curious, is the deal you mentioned related to yourself, or did your sect leader send you here?"

To be honest, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King didn't trust the Ze Yang Immortal Lord in front of him at all. The Xuan Yue Palace was currently at its zenith in the Dragon-Gathering Land, and most importantly, they had two Immortal Kings.

In the entire Dragon-Gathering Land, no sect can rival the Xuan Yue Palace. Logically, no affiliated force should dare to betray the Xuan Yue Palace at this time. However, the Liu Sha Sect secretly sent people to contact the Lei She Sect, and even said that they wanted to cooperate with them.

This inevitably led the Thunder Serpent Immortal King to suspect that all of this was a conspiracy by the Xuan Yue Palace. Perhaps the Xuan Yue Palace deliberately threw out such bait, and once he fell for it, the Thunder Serpent Sect would fall into a trap.

Although the Xuan Yue Palace had issued a decree ordering its affiliated forces to cease further expansion, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King remained vigilant. He believed this was merely a ploy by the Xuan Yue Palace to lull them into a false sense of security, and that the Xuan Yue Palace might take further action in the future.

As he expected, this further action came very quickly.

Even though he suspected it was a conspiracy, Thunder Serpent Immortal King still planned to wait until Zeyang Immortal Lord finished speaking, as he wanted to see what the Xuan Yue Palace was really up to.

Seeing that Thunder Serpent Immortal King was still wary of him, Zeyang Immortal Lord took the initiative to say, "It seems that Thunder Serpent Immortal King does not completely trust me."

Thunder Serpent Immortal King sneered again. Ze Yang Immortal Lord was a member of a sect affiliated with Xuan Yue Palace. How could he possibly believe him so quickly?

Zeyang Immortal Lord then asked, "I wonder if the Thunder Serpent Sect is interested in recruiting another Immortal King level elder?"

Upon hearing this question, Razer Immortal King paused for a moment.

An elder at the level of a Celestial King?
What a joke! If a Celestial King really came to the Thunder Serpent Sect, he wouldn't just be an elder; he would at least be a vice sect master.

However, there are only three Immortal Kings in the Dragon-Gathering Land now. Two of them are in the Xuan Yue Palace, and the remaining one is the Thunder Serpent Immortal King himself. Where would a fourth Immortal King come from?
Thunder Serpent Immortal King had been thinking from the beginning that if their sect could win over or recruit an Immortal King, then the pressure on their Thunder Serpent Sect when facing the Profound Moon Palace would be much less.

Unfortunately, there were no other Celestial Kings in the Land of Dragons, so he couldn't find anyone to recruit.

After regaining his senses, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King said coldly, "Are you mocking me? Where did this fourth Immortal King come from in the Land of Dragons?"

Immortal Lord Zeyang said, "There aren't any now, but that doesn't mean there won't be any in the future."

Razer Immortal King frowned and asked seriously, "What do you mean?"

Immortal Lord Zeyang said directly, "Our sect leader has reached a critical moment for breakthrough. If he can obtain more sect fortune, there is a high probability that he will break through to become an Immortal King within ten years."

Upon hearing this, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King was taken aback.

He seemed to understand why Immortal Lord Zeyang had come to the Thunder Serpent Sect to seek cooperation with them.

Seeing that the Thunder Serpent Immortal King did not speak, Zeyang Immortal Lord continued, "Originally, the Flowing Sand Sect had been expanding its power in order to increase the sect's fortune and help our sect leader break through. However, the Profound Moon Palace suddenly issued an immortal decree at this time, prohibiting its affiliated forces from expanding outwards."

"Without sufficient sect fortune, our sect leader would face great risks if he wanted to break through to become an Immortal King." "Therefore, if the Thunder Serpent Sect Leader is willing to help our sect leader break through to become an Immortal King, then our Flowing Sand Sect is willing to join the Thunder Serpent Sect and become a part of the Thunder Serpent Sect."

Upon hearing this, Thunder Serpent Immortal King's brows furrowed into a deep frown, as Ze Yang Immortal Lord's words did not seem to be a lie.

only……

At this moment, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King said, "I am very curious. If it is to break through to become an Immortal King, why doesn't your sect leader choose to tell the Profound Moon Palace directly? I suppose the Profound Moon Palace would be happy to see the addition of an Immortal King."

In terms of strength, the Xuan Yue Palace is more than twice as strong as the Lei She Sect. Most importantly, the Xuan Yue Palace is a celestial sect, while the Lei She Sect is just a sect.

There is a significant difference between sects and immortal sects. The fortune of immortal sects amplifies the strength of immortals more greatly. It seems that it is not worth it for the Flowing Sand Sect to betray the Profound Moon Palace at this time.

Zeyang Immortal Lord had anticipated that Thunder Serpent Immortal King would ask this question, so he said directly, "Although Xuan Yue Palace is an immortal sect, it is ultimately an external force. Does Thunder Serpent Immortal King think he will trust our Liusha Sect?"

"Most importantly, the Xuan Yue Palace is already powerful enough. Even if our sect leader becomes a Celestial King, he will probably be insignificant in the Xuan Yue Palace."

Thunder Serpent Immortal King instantly understood Ze Yang Immortal Lord's meaning. It turned out that Flowing Sand Immortal Lord was thinking it was better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond.

Although he was somewhat displeased that the Flowing Sand Sect looked down on their Thunder Serpent Sect, he had to admit that the Thunder Serpent Sect was indeed no match for the Profound Moon Palace at the moment. If Immortal Lord Flowing Sand really became an Immortal King and joined the Thunder Serpent Sect, he would certainly be given important responsibilities.

He's definitely going to be the deputy sect leader.

The Thunder Serpent Immortal King said, "I cannot yet confirm the truth of your statement."

Immortal Lord Zeyang then turned his conversation with Immortal Lord Liusha into a memory bead, and used his immortal power to drag the memory bead to Immortal King Leishe.

The Razer Immortal King read the contents of the memory bead with some skepticism. After reading all the memories in the memory bead, he fell into deep thought.

It seems that this is most likely true.

only……

This matter is risky for the Thunder Serpent Sect.

If the Thunder Serpent Sect really helped Immortal Lord Liusha break through to the Immortal King realm, but then Immortal Lord Liusha suddenly stopped coming to the Thunder Serpent Sect, wouldn't the Xuan Yue Palace be even more powerful with an additional Immortal King?

Thinking of this, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King tapped his fingers on the throne repeatedly. After an unknown amount of time, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King finally spoke: "If your Flowing Sand Sect really intends to join the Thunder Serpent Sect, then your sect leader should come to visit in person, instead of sending an elder like you."

Seeing that the Thunder Serpent Immortal King's tone had softened considerably, Zeyang Immortal Lord knew that he must have believed him, so he said, "Of course."

"I just came to speak with the Thunder Serpent Sect Master in advance to see if he would be willing to give the Thunder Serpent Sect another Immortal King, since an Immortal King is not an Immortal Lord."

Thunder Serpent Immortal King immediately understood Ze Yang Immortal Lord's words: if it were just about recruiting an Immortal Lord, it would pose no challenge to Thunder Serpent Immortal King's rule.

However, if there is an additional Celestial King, the power held by the Thunder Serpent Celestial King will likely be weakened.
