"These words do make sense."

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping pondered slightly and couldn't help but nod his head.

"Do you know what foolproof strategy the two True Lords have?" he immediately asked.

"The two True Lords plan to have Hu and Yue Countries join the One Qi Alliance," the young guide revealed without hesitation.

"Join the One Qi Alliance?" Xu Ping raised his eyebrows slightly.

This was indeed a good choice, given that the One Qi Alliance's power is no weaker than the Six Demon Countries Alliance, and the two are mortal enemies, wishing for the other to be utterly destroyed.

But there's a problem here.

For such an obvious act of avoiding disaster, would the One Qi Alliance really let the two countries join?

He didn't believe it, and others were not blindly optimistic either.

Thus, Xu Ping directly voiced his doubts.

"The two True Lords naturally understand the stakes,"

the young guide explained patiently, "so they announced that they would present the seized Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the Yin Yang Qi Cauldron, to the One Qi Alliance as a greeting gift."

"Yin Yang Qi Cauldron?"

"Greeting gift?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping's expression was instantly stunned.

From the fact that the two True Lords were able to obtain the Yin Yang Qi Cauldron, it seems the Profound Nether Sect must have been destroyed by them.

It must be said, these two True Lords are indeed decisive and ruthless, and this greeting gift is valuable enough!

With such a move, the One Qi Alliance might genuinely agree for Hu and Yue Countries to join.

Thinking it through, the reasons are not hard to understand.

First, because the two True Lords killed Master Xuan Gu, they undoubtedly have a deep enmity with the Six Demon Countries Alliance, making the chance of defection very small.

Second, the allure of the Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the Yin Yang Qi Cauldron, is so great that it will surely stir the hearts of most Nascent Soul Cultivators in the One Qi Alliance.

Finally, the addition of two Nascent Soul Cultivators will certainly enhance the strength of the One Qi Alliance.

"Did the One Qi Alliance give a response?"

Xu Ping suppressed the overwhelming surge of thoughts in his heart and asked.

"They replied."

When the young guide said this, his face was instantly filled with an unconcealable excitement,

"The One Qi Alliance agreed to let Hu and Yue Countries join and will also dispatch several Nascent Soul Cultivators to help fend off possible attacks from the demonic cultivators."

"I see!"

Hearing this news, Xu Ping's heart immediately calmed significantly.

Thus, unless both major forces go to full-scale war, Yue Country should not face the threat of destruction.

He also shouldn't need to flee in the meantime.

After all, he had just put in immense effort to upgrade the Spirit Vein on Thousand Leaves Mountain, and abandoning everything to escape at this point would certainly leave him with some reluctance.

"Now that our Yue Country has successfully joined the One Qi Alliance, as the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the cool under a big tree!"

"This not only successfully resolves the crisis of potential destruction but will surely usher in vigorous growth in the future."

"For many cultivators in Yue Country, this is undoubtedly a tremendous benefit."

The young guide, speaking excitedly, became increasingly enthusiastic and began to speak endlessly.

At this moment, his face was slightly flushed with excessive excitement, and his eyes glimmered with hopeful light.

It was as if he could already see himself riding this wave, making breakthroughs to higher realms.

However, Xu Ping felt that things weren't that simple.

Although given the current situation, it was indeed more beneficial than harmful for Yue Country to join the One Qi Alliance.

But the hidden drawbacks certainly couldn't be underestimated.

Especially for those at the Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, or even in the Fake Pill realm, the impact of these drawbacks could potentially threaten their very lives.

One must understand, once you join the One Qi Alliance, it equates to standing entirely against the countless demonic cultivators of the Six Demon Countries Alliance, becoming mortal enemies.

In the past, Yue Country maintained a neutral stance, serving as a sort of barrier.

This caused demon cultivators to have some fear, not daring to blatantly conduct bloody and cruel sacrificial activities within Yue Country's borders.

But now, such concerns no longer exist.

It can be imagined that in the future, a large number of demon cultivators will definitely infiltrate and slaughter Yue Country's cultivators on a large scale to obtain resources needed for cultivation.

After all, the growth of every demonic cultivator is built upon a foundation of mountains of corpses and seas of blood!

Thinking of this, Xu Ping couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency swelling in his heart.

In the future, Yue Country is destined to face invasions by demonic cultivators.

It might not be long before encountering demonic Golden Core Cultivators won't seem like an absurdly rare occurrence.

Should middle-stage, or even late-stage, Golden Core demonic great cultivators appear.

With his current strength, even hiding within Thousand Leaves Mountain wouldn't guarantee his safety.

However, fortunately, he upgraded the Spirit Vein on Thousand Leaves Mountain to a quasi-tier three level.

By then, if he sets up a third-rank middle-grade array, even if late-stage Golden Core great cultivators come, they definitely couldn't break through Thousand Leaves Mountain easily in a short time.

Thus, he could cultivate and practice at Thousand Leaves Mountain with peace of mind.

Although the changing situation stirred a sense of urgency in Xu Ping's heart, he also understood that haste would achieve nothing in this matter, which is not urgent in the short term.

So, he suppressed his sense of urgency and asked detailed questions about the situation of the three-country warfare.

The young guide also shared all he knew without reservation.

After listening to the young guide's narrative, Xu Ping's mind had become clear, gaining a general understanding of the current overall situation.

From his perspective, Master Xuan Gu's death was undoubtedly more beneficial than harmful to him.

Though Yue Country will certainly face invasion by demonic cultivators in the future, as long as the array in Thousand Leaves Mountain is properly set up, he could essentially rest easy.

With Master Xuan Gu dead, it also means he won't face the threat posed by Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Thinking of this, Xu Ping's heart relaxed a bit, and even his urgent desire to purchase array materials eased significantly.
