Urban Invincible Overlord

Chapter 871 Hatred



Zhuge Cang always attributed his failure to the betrayal by the Zhang Family and the Ji Family.

But he was not incapable of accepting the result of failure. At this moment, hearing Wang Chunfeng say this, he moved in his heart and looked at Wang Chunfeng with confusion: "Make amends?"

Wang Chunfeng said, "That's right. Zhuge Cang, your Zhuge family is skilled in the Qimen Skill, especially with high research in formations. Not only that, in alchemy and medicine crafting, the Zhuge family is also exceptionally talented. Given these, the few of us have discussed and decided to reinstate your Zhuge family, also giving you a chance to make amends and start anew."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Cang's eyes lit up. Thoughts flashed quickly across his mind, and he quickly realized a possibility. He laughed heartily: "So that's how it is. I was wondering why you were so kind-hearted. So that's the case, hahaha..."

Wang Chunfeng and the others saw him laughing out loud, his tone more than a little mocking and disdainful, and couldn't help but feel a bit displeased.

Only to hear Zhuge Cang say, "You must have seen the wonders of the Yunwu Mountain's Base and want my Zhuge family to come out of seclusion to build a powerful formation for you, and use the formation's spirit-gathering effect to cultivate herbs and help you in alchemy, right?"

Seeing that he guessed part of it, Wang Chunfeng admired, "Indeed, Brother Zhuge, your wisdom is truly extraordinary, and you guessed it right."

Zhuge Cang glanced at the crowd and sneered, "You want to seize power?"

Zhao Wannian shook his head and said, "This comment is erroneous! Our Hidden Sect has always been above the common world since ancient times. Now that the Hidden Sect Plane has collapsed and entered the secular world, our power and status should naturally remain unchanged. Yet, the current Divine Continent rulers are too arrogant, ambitious, attempting to make our Hidden Sect Cultivators bow down to secular powers. Wouldn't that be like reversing the celestial order, leaving us cultivators with no dignity to stand between heaven and earth?"

Zhuge Cang shared the same sentiment.

He was also a person of the Hidden Sect, and naturally held the same views towards the Hidden Sect and secular world as most people in the Hidden Sect.

In his heart, the Eight Great Families of Hidden Sect, be it in the Small World or the secular world, should always be superior, more esteemed than secular people.

This kind of thinking, for the upper echelons of the Hidden Sect, is deeply entrenched and very hard to change.

Ji Bangying said, "Sect Master Zhao speaks truly. We are not seizing power, instead, power should inherently be in the hands of those who are capable. The world's structure is now very clear; only we, the strong of the Hidden Sect, can deal with the might of the Heaven and Penglai Realm. Since that's the case, our Eight Great Families of the Hidden Sect should naturally enjoy higher authority. Secular power should be in our hands as it is correct."

"We cultivation experts, how can we let those ordinary people bind and govern us with secular laws?"

"Indeed, how can we bow to ordinary people?"

The people in the room all spoke up one after another.

For these strong experts, integrating into the secular world and being constrained by ordinary people with secular laws is the most unacceptable thing.

Moreover, human nature, this thing, has never changed since ancient times.

It's all selfish.

The people of the Eight Great Families of Hidden Sect were already dominant, controlling the absolute resources of the Hidden Sect when in the Hidden Sect Plane.

Now that they've come out, they naturally want to maintain their noble image and continue to control the world's resources and power, which to them, is only natural.

Only that the crisis at the Hidden Sect Plane at the time was too sudden, requiring a massive entry into the secular world, yet threatened by the Divine Continent secular official forces, they had no choice but to compromise, temporarily agreeing to the conditions put forward by Qin Yanyang, enduring the humiliation in submission.

Now, the Divine Continent has also issued a set of "Law of Cultivator", which seems tailored specifically to impose restrictions on the Hidden Sect Practitioners.

Most contemptible is that the majority of the mid and lower levels of the Hidden Sect could actually accept such terms.

This made the upper management of the Eight Great Families see the crisis.

They think that the Divine Continent's secular world is gradually dividing the Hidden Sect influence. If it continues for a long time, most mid and lower level Hidden Sect forces will have adapted to the secular laws and regulations and be slowly absorbed and cultivated by the high-level Divine Continent, gradually making the number of Divine Continent's Martial Arts experts grow while the Hidden Sect's advantage will be entirely lost.

This is the deadly scheme of boiling a frog in warm water.

They can't let the Divine Continent continue to slowly divide the Hidden Sect influence, they must act in advance and seize control in their own hands.

Zhuge Cang listened to everyone's words and sneered, "Since you are so united, why not take immediate action, and why come to find this old man?"

Wang Chunfeng said, "Because we haven't yet fully grasped the secular rules, and the Divine Continent seems to have anticipated that we would deal with them, so now the Divine Continent's official upper echelons have basically moved to the Jiangbei County Wu'an City and Bear Market area."

"Not only that, they are carrying out massive construction around the Yunwu Mountain's Base, and may relocate the capital there in the future. By then, with the protection of the Cloud Mist Mountain Array, it will be even harder for us Martial Artists to deal with them."

"Indeed, the modern weapons they originally developed specifically to deal with Martial Artists were already difficult for us to handle. If coupled with the powerful defense forces of the formation, it will be even harder to deal with. In time, they will cultivate more and more experts and strong people using Genetic Liquid Medicine, and by then our advantage will be completely lost."

Zhuge Cang laughed, "Yes, exactly. That's why you should act early. The longer you delay, the more unfavorable it is."

Wang Changchun also heard a bit of the essence, nodding, "Yes, strike first and deal with those in power in the secular world, make them puppets, then suppress and exterminate those secular martial artists threatening you, swiftly solve it all, only then can you take over secular power more smoothly, before dealing with the enemies of Heaven and Penglai Realm."

Everyone couldn't help but take another look at Wang Changchun.

It must be said that Wang Changchun and Zhuge Cang had something to them. Chаptеr prоvidеd viа М|V|L@ЕМРYR.

When they united to start that upheaval, if not for Helian Zhan, Ouyang He, and Wang Chunyang unexpectedly going out and quickly returning to report, coupled with the betrayal from the Zhang Family and the Ji Family, they would have succeeded.

Though now they have become prisoners, the views of these two regarding the Hidden Sect's control of the secular world are still quite correct.

Wang Chunyang stepped forward to Zhuge Cang and said, "What Brother Zhuge and Master Wang said is very true. There is just a very troublesome problem, even if we act immediately, it is very difficult to win."

"Oh?" Zhuge Cang looked around the crowd with suspicion, frowning, "Why say so?"

Wang Changchun was also puzzled: "Your five families united, plus all practitioners of the Hidden Sect having entered the secular world, such a powerful lineup, united in heart, can push through the world, absolutely no secular country can resist."

Wang Chunyang shook his head with a wry smile: "You overestimate our abilities and greatly underestimate the secular forces at the same time."

Ouyang He said, "Indeed, the Divine Continent official had already prepared against us. Not to mention their weapons have massive killing power against us, just Yunwu Mountain's Base alone, this place is absolutely easy to defend and hard to attack, especially with that boy Yang Fei guarding it, it would be hard to win even if we charged in."

Hearing the name Yang Fei, Zhuge Cang immediately gritted his teeth, filled with hatred.

If not for that boy back then, once he thoroughly controlled the Cloud Mist Mountain Array, the Zhuge family could have moved there and become the most powerful aristocratic family in the world.

But alas, everything was ruined by that boy.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Cang looked at the few and said, "Speak, so many of you come to find me, what exactly do you want me to do? As long as it can deal with that boy Yang Fei, I'll do anything."

Wang Changchun feared he might not have the chance, quickly said: "Anything that requires my help, I will do without regret, especially matters that deal with that boy Yang Fei."

The two had originally escaped, but ended up being captured by Yang Fei, speaking of that boy made both grit their teeth in hatred.
