Chapter 348: Chapter 348 Floral Transfer Palace Annexation

The means of Black Cloud Sect, they had witnessed before, and just now, even if they had pleaded tactfully for mercy, it would have only been temporary—who doesn’t know that the people of Black Cloud Sect aim to take over the entire Eastern Domain, how could they possibly spare them for their beauty?

What nobody expected, however, was that those fellows from Black Cloud Sect would actually be so afraid of Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was merely a cultivator of the Fifth Layer of Melding Earth Realm, whereas Black Cloud Sect possessed Reverting Void Realm powerhouses; yet, they were afraid of Lin Chen.

"It’s nothing more than a trivial effort. Black Cloud Sect is the sworn enemy of our Jade Cauldron Sect. My intervention just now wasn’t solely to help you all, but also to avenge the blood feud of Jade Cauldron."

Lin Chen spoke lightly.

Then, his gaze swept over the people from Floral Transfer Palace and turned to Bi Qiuyan before he slowly spoke again.

"What does Palace Master Bi plan to do with Floral Transfer Palace next? Do you still intend to close off your sect and not venture out?"

"Since Black Cloud Sect was able to breach our Hidden Elixir Pavilion, they would certainly be able to do it again someday."

Upon hearing this, a group of elders from Floral Transfer Palace flew over to look at Lin Chen. Despite his words being somewhat offensive, they were indeed true.

Black Cloud Sect’s strength had already been experienced by them. Since Black Cloud Sect could invade Floral Transfer Palace once, it wouldn’t be too difficult for them to do it a second time.

"Alas!"

Bi Qiuyan of course understood the rationale behind Lin Chen’s words, but she sighed and shook her head.

But now, within the Great Flame Dynasty, all Sects were struggling to preserve themselves. If they had united before being attacked by Black Cloud Sect, they might have been able to resist Black Cloud Sect to some extent.

But now, it was no longer possible. Each Sect had been attacked and was currently regrouping and cleaning up the aftermath. Even if they formed an alliance, they probably wouldn’t be able to gather enough strength to confront Black Cloud Sect.

"Since all of you have no means to confront Black Cloud Sect, I do have a method. However, it’s up to you all to make a decision."

Lin Chen looked at Bi Qiuyan and the many elders of Floral Transfer Palace, casually suggesting.

At these words, everyone became interested, giving Lin Chen a few more glances.

"I wonder, what method does Young Master Lin Chen suggest?"

"With your strength alone, it’s impossible to confront Black Cloud Sect. Why not merge with our Jade Cauldron Sect?"

Lin Chen looked at Bi Qiuyan, speaking earnestly.

"What!? Merge with Jade Cauldron Sect, this is absolutely impossible."

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s suggestion, before Bi Qiuyan could respond, an elder from Floral Transfer Palace immediately spoke up.

Lin Chen glanced at the elder indifferently, not surprised by the elder’s response.

If it were in the past, the idea of Floral Transfer Palace merging with Jade Cauldron Sect would have been absolutely impossible.

But now, considering Floral Transfer Palace’s situation, the choice was no longer in their hands.

"I’m just giving you all a suggestion. The choice is yours. Jade Cauldron Sect naturally will not force Floral Transfer Palace to merge,"

"But you know well the current situation of all Sects within the Great Flame Dynasty. In my opinion, aside from Jade Cauldron Sect, the circumstances of the other six Sects are pretty much the same. You are not unaware of Black Cloud Sect’s ambition; they will not rest until they have swallowed the Great Flame Dynasty."

"Now, our Jade Cauldron Sect occupies Divine Sun City and has taken control of both the City Protection Array and the Underground Dragon Vein. Black Cloud Sect would find it very difficult to attack our Jade Cauldron Sect. However, choosing to attack the other six Sects would be a different story."

"Today, it was only because you encountered me that Floral Transfer Palace temporarily escaped this disaster. But after I leave, what will you use to fight Black Cloud Sect?"

"You might not want to merge with Jade Cauldron Sect now, but the other five Sects might not think the same way. Don’t say I didn’t warn you in advance, Divine Sun City, although vast, cannot possibly accommodate the Seven Great Sects. When the time comes, it won’t be about you choosing to join Jade Cauldron Sect, but rather Jade Cauldron Sect selecting those with sufficient strength. Only those who are useful to us would have the qualification to become a member of Jade Cauldron Sect."

Lin Chen continued to speak to Bi Qiuyan and the elders of Floral Transfer Palace.

After he finished, everyone fell silent, because what Lin Chen said was all true.

"Master..."

Hua Lianxin looked at her master, Bi Qiuyan, wanting to speak up and persuade her, but she was stopped by a gesture from Lin Chen.

If Floral Transfer Palace decided to join Jade Cauldron Sect solely because of Hua Lianxin’s persuasion, then such an ally would not be reliable. This was not what Lin Chen needed.

The power of Floral Transfer Palace was indeed something Lin Chen needed. Divine Sun City was in dire need of strong support.

Although Floral Transfer Palace was not as strong as Jade Cauldron Sect, it still had the presence of three Reverting Void Realm powerhouses. With their support, combined with the formations within Divine Sun City, there would be a better chance of standing against Black Cloud Sect and Moon Shadow Pavilion.

Bi Qiuyan clenched her jade fists, her eyes fixed on Lin Chen, struggling immensely in her heart.

The other elders of Floral Transfer Palace were also looking at Bi Qiuyan, waiting for her decision.

The entirety of Floral Transfer Palace was united as one, and no matter what decision Bi Qiuyan made, they would all fully support her.

"Enough. As long as Floral Transfer Palace can continue to exist, what harm is there in merging with Jade Cauldron Sect."

Bi Qiuyan shook her head, sighing slightly as she spoke.

Though making this decision brought her some relief, deep down she still found it difficult to accept.

After all, no independent Sect would willingly merge with another Sect.

Merging meant becoming subordinate to another Sect, subject to their governance.

"Palace Master Bi can rest assured, once Floral Transfer Palace merges into Jade Cauldron Sect, you can retain your sect’s heritage. Moreover, Floral Transfer Palace can remain independent, and need not join any of Jade Cauldron Sect’s forces. Rather than saying Floral Transfer Palace is merging into Jade Cauldron Sect, it would be more accurate to consider it an alliance."

"The reason I want Floral Transfer Palace to merge with Jade Cauldron Sect is because, with the Great Flame Dynasty facing a formidable enemy, everyone must work together unanimously to confront the threat."

Lin Chen spoke once more.

As soon as these words came out, Bi Qiuyan’s eyes lit up. Although Lin Chen’s words were somewhat deceitful, for some reason, Bi Qiuyan instantly believed Lin Chen upon hearing them.

"Can Young Master Lin Chen’s word represent Jade Cauldron Sect?"

Bi Qiuyan asked.

"Naturally!"

Lin Chen replied confidently, his position within Jade Cauldron Sect allowing him to make such decisions.
