When he saw Mo Tang again, Old Man Yingshan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"A nine-star Dou Huang? This can't be real..."
Old Man Yingshan thought to himself, "The world of geniuses is indeed different from ours." He was also puzzled by the other's purpose in coming.
However, when Mo Tang personally invited him to join the Wind and Thunder Alliance, Old Man Yingshan was still surprised. "This... Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Alliance
Leader Mo, but I've always been used to freedom and don't want to join any faction..." This was indeed true. With Old Man Yingshan's strength, if he really wanted to join a faction, probably any faction in the Black Corner Region would welcome him with open arms. This refusal was within Mo Tang's expectations. So he wasn't angry at all, instead smiling and saying, "Senior Eagle Mountain, please let me finish..." "Originally, this so-called Wind and Thunder Alliance was just a game I created out of boredom, but who would have thought it would develop to this extent in such a short time." " If I were to simply leave now, it wouldn't be my style. Therefore, I would like to ask Senior Eagle Mountain to help me oversee the Wind and Thunder Alliance for the foreseeable future. When I return from Central Continent, if Senior Eagle Mountain is interested in making some visits, he might as well come and sit at my Wind and Thunder Pavilion..." Well, to put it bluntly, he was using the promise of joining the Wind and Thunder Pavilion as bait to get this old monster to work for him for free for a few years. For a powerful figure like Elder Eagle Mountain, perhaps the Wind and Thunder Alliance, or even any force in the entire Black Corner Region, wouldn't interest him. But Central Continent and the Wind and Thunder Pavilion—those two words were enough to grab his attention. Once, Elder Eagle Mountain was arrogant and full of vigor, disregarding all offers from the Black Corner Region, determined to venture into the Central Continent… He did indeed go, but after only two short years, he fled back to the Black Corner Region in a sorry state. Although he had faced numerous life-threatening dangers during those two years, it also allowed Elder Eagle Mountain, a mere nine-star Dou Huang, to successfully break through to Dou Zong… This shows that while the Central Continent is dangerous, it also offers many opportunities. If he could truly have the chance to join a top-tier power like the Wind and Thunder Pavilion this time, then the previous situation would never happen again, and he might even have the possibility of advancing further… Thinking of this, Elder Eagle Mountain was tempted. Seeing the changing expression on the other party's face, Mo Tang knew that his goal had been achieved. With a gentle smile, Mo Tang quietly awaited the other party's reply... Finally, after a moment, Elder Yingshan shook his head and smiled wryly, saying, "Alright, Alliance Leader Mo's conditions are truly too tempting, this old man... agrees." "Welcome Senior Yingshan to the Wind and Thunder Alliance. From now on, we're family," Mo Tang immediately welcomed him. With a four-star Dou Zong present, the Wind and Thunder Alliance could solidify its foundation in the Black Corner Region. Even if he and Little Fairy Doctor left, there wouldn't be too many problems. Moreover, a four-star Dou Zong, even if brought into the Wind and Thunder Pavilion later, would be a very capable helper—a win-win situation. ... ... Time flew by, and another month passed. During this month, Little Fairy Doctor also successfully broke through again with the help of the Black Emperor Sect, reaching the three-star Dou Zong level. The Wind and Thunder Alliance has now completely overshadowed many established sects in the Black Corner Region, and is showing signs of becoming the number one sect in the region. This is understandable, given the addition of three more Dou Huangs and over ten Dou Wangs in the past month, and even Mo Tang's invitation to two Rank 5 alchemists to oversee the alliance…
Since the death of Medicine King Han Feng and Qi Shan, a sixth-grade alchemist from the Black Emperor Sect, the Black Corner Region no longer has any officially recognized sixth-grade alchemists. Therefore, these two peak fifth-grade alchemists are now the most powerful, a key reason why the Wind and Thunder Alliance attracts so many to join them.
With their addition, and the presence of Elder Eagle Mountain, even if the Earth Demon Old Ghost of Demon Flame Valley were to emerge from seclusion, he wouldn't dare to easily attack the Wind and Thunder Alliance…
It can be said that the Wind and Thunder Alliance has now achieved its current status, becoming an equal to Demon Flame Valley.
If Mo Tang's trip to Central Continent goes smoothly, and he solidifies his reputation as the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, the Black Corner Region will inevitably respect him!
Therefore…
"It's time to head to Central Continent…"
Mo Tang said softly, looking at the white clouds in the sky.
Beside him, Little Fairy Doctor remained quiet.
"Wasn't this already decided? Why do you seem so unhappy?"
Noticing Mo Tang's melancholy, Little Fairy Doctor asked, somewhat puzzled.
Shaking his head, Mo Tang smiled and said, "No, it's just that I feel like once I go this time, I really won't have much free time to quietly watch the white clouds in the sky with you like this..."
Ever since his chance encounter with the Soul Hall members at the Black Emperor Sect, Mo Tang had been feeling a sense of crisis urging him on, as if the major events in his memory were about to happen ahead of schedule.
His time was getting shorter and shorter...
Although she didn't know what Mo Tang was thinking, Little Fairy Doctor didn't ask anything, but silently reached out her jade-like hand and tightly grasped his large hand.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will always, always, always be by your side..."
Feeling the tenderness from the girl, Mo Tang deeply embraced her soft, delicate body, gently inhaling the fragrance of her hair. The slight hesitation in his heart had long since disappeared.
"Don't worry, I will always be by your side... your side."
He originally wanted to say "you," but remembering that he seemed to have other women, Mo Tang awkwardly changed his words.
The previously touched Little Fairy Doctor rolled her eyes, but still nuzzled her head against the man's chest, inhaling his scent, and silently closed her eyes.
It must be said that sometimes, feelings don't have to be intense, like the sea drying up and the rocks crumbling, or earth-shattering…
Simplicity is true love, and letting things take their natural course is forever.
Of course, this was true of the women Mo Tang had encountered, whether it was Yun Yun, Little Fairy Doctor, or even the Queen herself; they were all the kind of women who, once they set their sights on someone, would never waver, which is why this old lecher Mo Tang had succeeded.
In his previous life, without a doubt, he would have been called a scumbag and kicked aside by the women!
After making his decision, Mo Tang made some simple arrangements, letting the original four members of the Wind and Thunder Alliance jointly manage the alliance, and to seek help from Elder Eagle Mountain for any unresolved issues. Then, he took Little Fairy Doctor and headed towards Tianya City, the only city in the Black Corner Region with a space wormhole leading to the Central Continent.
