Chapter 1308: Celestial Alliance

Even though Xiang Shaoyun had decided to not meet Dong Ziwan, he hadn’t changed his mind. The Saintforce Realm was going to open in one year. He could very well meet her then. He believed that she would have changed her mind at that time.

As for those who initially wanted to challenge Xiang Shaoyun, they gave up after witnessing his strength. It hadn’t been easy for them to enter the top-100. They naturally weren’t willing to die like Xue Buyi so soon after tasting success.

Di Mie also wanted to challenge Xiang Shaoyun, but he managed to keep a calm head and stop himself. For now, his first priority was to enter the Saintforce Realm and become a Saint.

After breaking through, he would be able to easily kill Xiang Shaoyun. After all, Xiang Shaoyun was only a fourth-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator. The Saintforce Realm wouldn’t be of much help for someone with his cultivation level. After all, they could only stay there for a year.

Dugu Qiubai also did not bother challenging Xiang Shaoyun. He knew that they would have a battle sooner or later, but now was not the time.

Di Lin wanted to kill Xiang Shaoyun badly, but he also knew very well how strong Xiang Shaoyun was. Instead of acting rashly, he was trying to think of a plan to safely end Xiang Shaoyun’s life.

After arriving at Tang Zhan’s residence in the fort, Xiang Shaoyun was led inside by the guard. The moment he stepped inside, an indescribable power enveloped his body, giving him an uneasy feeling. Then, a blurry figure appeared before him. He couldn’t see who the person was, but he could guess that it wasn’t Tang Zhan.

“Who are you?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.

“I’m an envoy here to invite you into the Celestial Alliance,” said that person.

“Celestial Alliance!” Xiang Shaoyun exclaimed in surprise.

Others might not know what the Celestial Alliance was, but Xiang Shaoyun knew. The Celestial Alliance was an ancient organization that had existed since ancient times. Back then, a self-proclaimed god had established this organization, aiming to become the protector of the dominion.

After establishing the Celestial Alliance, the so-called god had appointed nine generals as his representatives. Slowly, the organization grew while recruiting numerous talents from all parts of the world. Generally, one had to reach the Heaven Battling Realm to be qualified to join. However, exceptions would be made for up-and-coming youngsters with outstanding potential.

In his past life, Xiang Shaoyun had also encountered some Celestial Alliance members. At the time, they tried to recruit him as well. However, he was too arrogant and completely looked down on the Celestial Alliance.

Subsequently, during his endless war against the world, eight top-tier organizations banded together against him. Among the forces working against him, there were traces of the Celestial Alliance present. In short, the Celestial Alliance had also played a role in his death during his previous life.

Of course, it was also possible that some of those from the eight organizations were members of the Celestial Alliance. As his war had affected their benefits, it was understandable that they would move against him.

“Had Tang Zhan told you about the Celestial Alliance?” asked the envoy.

Xiang Shaoyun recovered from his thoughts and shook his head. “No, but this is quite a powerful name. I was just shocked to hear such a name.”

“The Celestial Alliance is the strongest organization in the world. No other organization can contend against us. You should be honored to be offered a chance to join. After joining, you won’t have any trouble becoming a Saint or even a God in the future,” persuaded the envoy.

“What can I get after joining?” asked Xiang Shaoyun. He went straight to the point, ignoring all the fluff in the envoy’s words.

The envoy was visibly surprised by the question. He blanked out slightly before saying, “For example, the Saintforce Realm quota everyone is risking their life to get can be easily obtained from us. Also, you will be able to obtain countless cultivation resources from us. All of this will be helpful for your growth.”

“Not bad at all. What do I need to do for the alliance?” asked Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.

“Simple. Agree unconditionally when the alliance requires you to do something,” said the envoy.

“Agree unconditionally…,” Xiang Shaoyun muttered as he sank into thought. He then raised his head and solemnly said, “My apologies, lord. I am not interested in joining.”

“Do not be in too much of a rush to refuse. The requirement might sound scary, but you won’t be required to do much. On the other hand, you will receive a lot of assistance, such as saint-grade techniques, god-grade techniques, and more. These are all things that others dream of obtaining. Think it through,” said the envoy.

Even after hearing all that, Xiang Shaoyun refused resolutely, “Sorry. I’m still not interested.”

“Kid, don’t get too cocky.” The envoy was becoming annoyed.

“Lord, I’m weak and without ambitions. I only wish to remain where I am. Please don’t make things difficult for me,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a slight bow.

“Don’t be stubborn like your father, or you won’t have any future,” said the envoy unhappily.

Xiang Shaoyun could guess that they had once tried recruiting his father as well. He remained silent, afraid that saying more would only aggravate the situation, causing the envoy to slap him to death.

Just as the envoy was about to continue speaking, Tang Zhan appeared and said, “Envoy, allow me to speak to him. He’s still young and doesn’t know the world well. Don’t mind him.”

“Hmph. Since he doesn’t know what’s good for him, we might as well let him be. He can die for all I care,” said the envoy with a cold snort before vanishing into thin air.

After the envoy left, Tang Zhan looked at Xiang Shaoyun and sighed heavily. “Shaoyun, do you know how big of an opportunity you just missed?”

“What do you mean, Uncle Tang?” asked Xiang Shaoyun.

“You’re asking despite knowing the answer. Many dream of having an envoy personally invite them to join, yet you refuse such an opportunity. I don’t know what to say to you,” said Tang Zhan with a slightly reproachful tone.

Xiang Shaoyun said, “Uncle Tang, do you also believe that it would be good for me to join?”

“Of course!” said Tang Zhan.

“Pardon my rudeness, but were you happy all these years?” asked Xiang Shaoyun.

Tang Zhan was stunned, not knowing what to say.

“Yes, the Celestial Alliance is an enormous organization. However, each member would be restricted in some ways upon joining, forever living within the cage provided by the alliance. I believe that was why my father refused to join,” said Xiang Shaoyun, his eyes flickering with wisdom.
