King Hu Ci blushed and was at a loss for words, panting heavily for a while before stammering, "Qualified, certainly qualified."

After this incident, Wang Xiaoqiang's strength and magnanimity commanded respect, leaving no one daring to challenge him.

Among the heroic tyrants of loose cultivators, King Hu Ci possessed the highest cultivation base. For a long time, he was regarded as an elder brother, especially after Fengyun Tian's death, when the heroes of the rogue cultivator world looked to him as their leader.

Now that King Hu Ci had spoken, the other nine loose cultivator heroes did not dare to say much and obediently returned to their seats.

Wang Xiaoqiang returned to his seat in the back hall and gave Jin Futu a meaningful glance. Jin Futu cleared his throat and said, "Wang Xiaoqiang's strength is obvious to all. Honestly, if he wanted to deal with us loose cultivators, we would already have suffered a catastrophic defeat under his immense army, so he is indeed qualified to participate in this discussion..."

As soon as Jin Futu finished speaking, a heroic tyrant in the Three Elephant Realm of the Immortal King stood up and clasped his fists, asking, "Is Marshal Wang participating in this meeting as a traditional cultivator or as a loose cultivator?"

Wang Xiaoqiang replied calmly, "Traditional cultivators and loose cultivators are both cultivators. Why make such a clear distinction?"

The heroic tyrant of loose cultivators retorted, "Naturally, we must distinguish clearly. Traditional cultivators and loose cultivators are inherently incompatible."

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Actually, the core issue of our discussion this time is the gap and division between traditional cultivators and the rogue cultivator world..."

"What? Is Marshal Wang intending to unify traditional cultivators and loose cultivators?" the Three Elephant Realm heroic tyrant sneered.

Wang Xiaoqiang swept his determined gaze over everyone and said, "That's right, breaking the gap, merging into one, unifying traditional cultivators and loose cultivators is my aspiration, and I wish to achieve it with the help of you all."

Upon hearing this, the gathered loose cultivator heroes sneered continuously, feeling like they were hearing a fantastical story.

In fact, Wang Xiaoqiang also found this matter tricky. Traditional cultivators and loose cultivators have been enemies for so many years, with grudges as deep as the sea, solving it might be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

However, he was determined to try, perhaps for the sake of two women—Princess Hua Shao and Jin Qiaoqiao.

If he wanted to maintain his identity as a traditional cultivator, he would lose Jin Qiaoqiao,

Jin Qiaoqiao was a loose cultivator from birth, unlike Little Qing, who transformed into a human and had a chance to choose anew, or Mingyan, who shed her ghost body to become human, crossing into the human domain, or Sai Ya, who rid herself of demonic qi and similarly entered the human clan.

Jin Qiaoqiao had always been a loose cultivator, and as the daughter of the famous Medicinal Beggar Jin Futu, she was recognizable anywhere. To keep Jin Qiaoqiao by his side for life, Wang Buqiang had to sever ties with traditional cultivators and become a loose cultivator.

But if Wang Xiaoqiang pledged himself to the rogue cultivator world, severing ties with traditional cultivators, he would lose Princess Hua Shao,

Princess Hua Shao was unlike other women, who could become loose cultivators with Wang Xiaoqiang, but a dignified princess could not, so to have both Princess Hua Shao and Jin Qiaoqiao, he must achieve the grand unification of traditional cultivators and loose cultivators.

Of course, there was also Jin Futu's hope and trust to consider, for unifying traditional cultivators and loose cultivators would greatly benefit millions, a monumental achievement for the ages.

"Marshal Wang, you didn't go through all this effort just to tell a joke, did you..."

"Deep cultivation, childish mind."

"Haha, it's too funny, can traditional cultivators and loose cultivators really merge into a grand unification? That's absurd..."

The assembly of heroic tyrants among the loose cultivators mocked and ridiculed the notion, treating it as a joke.

Jin Futu raised both hands and pressed down gently, and once everyone's discussion subsided, he said, "I know it's hard for everyone to believe, but where there's a will, there's a way. If everyone is willing to cooperate, I believe achieving unification is not impossible."

"May I ask, Marshal Wang wants to achieve the grand unification of traditional cultivators and loose cultivators, will you start with traditional cultivators or with us loose cultivators?"

King Hu Ci clasped his fists and asked. His attitude was clearly more respectful than before, although he still disdained Wang Xiaoqiang's idea.

"The reason for inviting everyone is naturally to start with us loose cultivators," Jin Futu said.

"Starting with us loose cultivators, does that mean making us conform to traditional cultivators? Is this intended to suppress us loose cultivators?" someone immediately expressed dissatisfaction and protest.

"Hmph, even if we loose cultivators agree, will the traditional cultivators agree? Will their Emperor agree?" a loose cultivator said. "Unless Marshal Wang can overthrow the Sovereign of the Empire and pull down Huang Ce?!!"

"You don't need to worry about matters over there," Wang Xiaoqiang said. "You all just need to cooperate with me..."

"Cooperate with you, how to cooperate?" a heroic tyrant of loose cultivators said. "Bow and submit to you? Then would you not become the leader of the loose cultivators?"

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "I dare not presume to have you bow to me, I only hope that everyone can unite, stop mutual killing, and not conflict with traditional cultivators, deepening hatred..."

"But what if traditional cultivators bully us? Are we to meekly submit and be slaughtered?" King Hu Ci said somewhat passionately.

"If such a situation arises, you can notify me, and I will resolve it..." Wang Xiaoqiang said.

King Hu Ci and the other nine loose cultivator heroes fell silent. It was apparent they considered Wang Xiaoqiang's proposal acceptable, but were unwilling to openly agree.

Jin Futu laughed heartily and said, "Haha, that's the purpose of inviting everyone here today, it's not difficult for you, right? What Wang Xiaoqiang proposed is for the good of us loose cultivators. Everyone can accept it, right? If you accept, you can acknowledge it silently, haha... Today I will host, everyone is welcome to drink and celebrate at the table, drink to our hearts' content, and rest when we're done..."

The ten loose cultivator heroes said nothing more, clearly tacitly agreeing. After all, Wang Xiaoqiang's requests were not excessive, they were considerate of loose cultivators, and there was no forceful subjugation, so they had no reason to refuse.

At that moment, in the dining room of the City Lord's Mansion, a grand banquet was held. The heroic tyrants of loose cultivators, being fond of drinking, clinked glasses, and exchanged toasts, gradually bringing them closer to Wang Xiaoqiang.

In the Immortal Realm, Wang Xiaoqiang was renowned, and they spoke highly of him. If Wang Xiaoqiang were not a traditional cultivator, they would readily elect him to replace Fengyun Tian and become the new leader of the rogue cultivator world. (To be continued.
