Jie Yiming looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Those people from the big sects were led to the buffer zone by Sect Master Jian. Could it be that Sect Master Jian still has any opinions? Is Sect Master Jian now afraid?"

Zhao Hai looked calm, and after a while he said: "I'm not afraid, but I don't want others to get involved in Nanhai's affairs. To be honest, if those people from the big sects are really determined to do it, Entering the South China Sea, can you block it? Our Sea Exploration Alliance can't block it anyway, and isn't it good now? Put them all there, and we can monitor them. What's in your seventy-two islands in the South China Sea? , you can trade with them there, but the problem is that those big sects are not so easy to satisfy. Each of them is very greedy. The reason why I want to go to Xuantian Sect this time is to form an alliance with them. , and persuade them to agree to form an alliance with your Seventy-Two Islands in the South China Sea. The main reason is to prevent those large sects from being too greedy and reaching out to the South China Sea. After all, they need to pay to get things from the South China Sea. The price needs to be exchanged for crystal stones, but what if they don’t want to exchange for crystal stones?”

Xie Yiming understood what Zhao Hai meant. Those big sects are very greedy. If you have good things but they don't, they want to seize your things and trade them with you? Those big sects generally don't do this. In their opinion, what they get from trading is better than robbing it. What they robbing doesn't cost much, and trading them is equivalent to an exchange of equal value. That's not right. good. ☆→

But if Zhao Hai and the others let the people from the big sects feel. What they trade for. Less than what they paid for what they grabbed. Then they will naturally not rob, but trade honestly.

deterrence! Xie Yiming understood that the main purpose of Zhao Hai's promotion of this alliance was to intimidate those major sects and let those major sects see that they have formed an alliance and you'd better not mess around.

Thinking of this, Xie Yiming couldn't help but calm down. Then he looked at Zhao Hai, and then said: "This matter is not something I can decide alone. I will inform the other island owners of your proposal and see what their opinions are. If they don't agree, follow If you form an alliance, there’s nothing I can do about it.”

Zhao Hai looked at Xie Yiming, smiled slightly and said: "Master Jie, I hope you understand. This time we come to form an alliance with you for the good of all of us. I am not here to beg you. In fact, I agree with Xuantian Sect on this." People have said that our Sea Exploration Alliance has always regarded ourselves as South China Sea people, so we are thinking of forming an alliance among our three parties. Once our three parties form an alliance, it will be equivalent to controlling the entire South China Sea, which allows us to all develop. , but if you don’t want to form an alliance and we just form an alliance with Xuantian Sect and Xuanjian Sect, that doesn’t mean anything. Xuantian Sect and Xuanjian Sect may still form an alliance with us, and we will agree to it, but at the same time we will To form alliances with major sects, I even have a plan, which is a land exchange plan. We can use the territory here in the buffer zone, deep in the continent, to exchange for some uninhabited mountains as our sects, and then Giving up the buffer zone to those major sects, and this approach, at most, allows those of us to change places. For us, the loss is not very big, because there is no such place in our buffer zone. There are too many supplies, and for Xuantian Sect and others, the loss will not be great. If those big sects want to touch them, it will be difficult. After all, they have existed for so many years, and there is nothing that can. It’s attractive to those major sects, but for the people of the Seventy-two Islands in the South China Sea, it’s probably not good news, right?”

Xie Yiming stared at Zhao Hai. Of course he understood what Zhao Hai meant. If Zhao Hai really came up with a land exchange plan, then those big sects would definitely agree. Those big sects coveted the buffer zone. After a long time, it is impossible for them to give up this opportunity, and as Zhao Hai said, if they go to other places and re-establish a sect, it may have an impact on them, but the impact will definitely not be very big. Big, because there are no supplies in the buffer zone, and Xuantian Sect will not have much influence, because Xuanjian Sect is a sect in the Sword Spirit Realm after all, and those big sects will not attack them. But the unlucky ones are the Seventy-two Islands in the South China Sea. If those people from the major sects are really allowed to get the buffer zone, then the Seventy-two Islands in the South China Sea will never have peace for a moment.

Xie Yiming stared at Zhao Hai and said, "Are you threatening me?"

Zhao Hai shook his head and said: "No, I'm not threatening you. I'm just telling you a fact. I just want to tell you that we didn't come to beg you to form an alliance because we were desperate. Please do this. It’s clear, and there’s no point in playing tricks like today. I’ll take my leave and I’ll go back and wait for news from the island owner.”

After saying that, Zhao Hai stood up and walked out. The people who followed Zhao Hai naturally followed Zhao Hai out, leaving those on Ling Crab Island in the cold.

Jie Yiming looked at Zhao Hai's back, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but he did not attack because he knew very well that he could not do anything to Zhao Hai now. If he really dared to do anything to Zhao Hai, then the buffer zone The people there will definitely seek refuge with those major sects. By that time, they will be in big trouble, especially their Ling Crab Island. Ling Crab Island is the closest to the buffer zone, so they will definitely be the first to be unlucky.

Xie Yiming finally understood why they failed before. It was because their opponent was too powerful. Your plan would never be as good as his reaction. You thought that when he came to your territory, he would give you face and follow your game rules. Play, but he will tell you that it is simply impossible. He will play according to his own rules of the game, but in the end you find that you have to play according to his rules. This is the most shocking thing.

Xie Yiming let out a long breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Send a letter to the other islands and ask them to send people to discuss the alliance with the Exploring Sea Alliance and the Xuantian Sect Alliance." Someone immediately responded and continued. Went to deliver the letter.

By this time, Zhao Hai had returned to the courtyard where they lived. After everyone has settled down. Zhao Hai then returned to his room. He knew that Xie Yiming didn't dare to touch him. Although Xie Yiming was a smiling tiger, such people were often very smart and he would not mess around.

There was no words for the night, and Zhao Hai and the others still lived very peacefully the next day. Xie Yiming didn't come to invite Zhao Hai, but the people here on Lingxi Island. However, he took good care of Zhao Hai, and Xie Yiming also sent someone to send a letter to Zhao Hai, telling Zhao Hai that they were discussing an alliance with him.

Zhao Hai did not rush them. Although Zhao Hai attached great importance to this alliance, as he said, he actually had an alternative plan, and this plan was really a land exchange. As long as they A land swap took place. You can leave the buffer zone, a place of right and wrong, and Zhao Hai already knows it very well. In fact, the buffer zone is not a good place for development. The area is small and the materials are poor. Development here will easily encounter bottlenecks. Zhao Hai really wants to give up the buffer zone.

But he is also very clear that it is not a good choice to give up the buffer zone. In the buffer zone, they can also form alliances with forces such as Xuantian Sect, Xuanjian Sect and the Seventy-two Islands of the South China Sea, and deal with them. , slowly resolving his crisis, but if he really leaves the buffer zone and enters a strange environment, then he will be unfamiliar with all the surrounding sects, and it will be difficult for them to form an alliance by then. , they are afraid that they will be like the Sword Yu Sect who did not go to war with the Xuantian Sect before, and have no contact with the surrounding sects, and they will be isolated.

Even if all the sects in the buffer zone move there, it would not be a good thing, because if they all move there, they will naturally stick together when they get there, and eventually those big sects will target them, no They may suffer losses if they find ways to form alliances with others. Even if they finally gain a firm foothold, the losses may not be small.

This is actually the reason why people are cheap when they leave their hometown. It is precisely because of this that Zhao Hai doesn't want to leave yet, but if there is really no other way, he will leave. This is mainly to see which option is more beneficial to him.

Xie Yiming and the others had been discussing for three days. Zhao Hai and the others also stayed at Lingxi Island for three days. On the fourth day, which was the fifth day after Zhao Hai and the others arrived at Lingxi Island, Xie Yiming and the others finally reached an agreement. That night, Xie Yiming entertained Zhao Hai at a banquet.

Zhao Hai led people to the main hall of Lingxi Island. Xie Yiming was still standing outside the main hall waiting for him. In addition to Jie Yiming, there were dozens of monks. These people all stood outside the main hall and looked at Zhao Hai. , Zhao Hai looked at them and knew that these people must be representatives of other islands. He didn't say anything, he just greeted these people.

When Xie Yiming arrived, he seemed to be very familiar with him. He introduced those people to him one by one. It took a long time to introduce those people and greet each other, and then they entered the main hall.

The banquet table was also set up in the main hall, and everyone sat down respectively. After that, the people from Lingxian Island presented them with dishes one after another, but no one paid attention to them. At a banquet like this, people often don’t pay attention to the food. s things.

After everyone was seated, Xie Yiming looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Master Jian, I invite you here today. I think you should also know why. It is for the alliance you mentioned last time. We want to know, this alliance, What’s going on?”

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Actually, it is very simple. The alliance this time is our Exploration Alliance, Xuantian Sect and the Seventy-Two Islands in the South China Sea. The three-party alliance has only one purpose, which is to jointly curb the influence of those major sects in the South China Sea. Development, this alliance can be said to be an offensive and defensive alliance. We usually still do our own things. In fact, if there is any conflict between us, we can also use force to resolve it, but if those large sects want to extend their hands, , it will be up to the three of us to work together to interrupt their stretched out hand. This is what I call an offensive and defensive alliance, that is, matters in the South China Sea will be resolved by the people of the South China Sea themselves without outsiders' intervention."

Having said this, Zhao Hai paused for a moment, then he glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "I told their people at Xuantian Sect, I said that the several forces here in Nanhai are like a family of brothers. There may be conflicts between these brothers, but it is our own business to fight life and death behind closed doors. If outsiders want to rob our home, then we will not agree, and we will definitely fight them to the end. .”

Xie Yiming and the others were stunned when they heard what Zhao Hai said. They thought there would be some surprises in this alliance. For example, after three alliances, there would be no war or partial division of interests. , but did not expect that the alliance Zhao Hai mentioned would be so simple. It was just an offensive and defensive alliance, and it was an offensive and defensive alliance specifically targeting many large sects. This covenant seemed a bit too simple.

But after thinking about it, Xie Yiming and the others also felt that this was better. If they really made a three-party non-aggression covenant, how would they resolve conflicts in the future? Once they really had a conflict, what would the covenant be like? I'm afraid it will be scrapped, which will not be a good thing for the three of them.

But now such a simple covenant is very suitable for them. If the three of them have any conflicts in the future, they can take big action. This covenant is only effective when dealing with those large sects. At other times, they How to live or how to live, this is very suitable to their taste.

In fact, Xie Yiming said that they were planning to negotiate with Zhao Hai before, and they were also negotiating on the scope of the covenant. They did not want to be bound by too many covenants, so they were planning to negotiate with Zhao Hai, so that there would not be too many provisions in the covenant. .

But they really didn't expect that the constraints of the covenant would be so low, but this played into their own hands. Xie Yiming nodded, he looked at Zhao Hai and said: "This covenant is good, and your description is also very good. We The three parties together do indeed represent the entire South China Sea. As long as the three of us can really cooperate, then the entire South China Sea is ours, our own home territory. If we fight life and death here, that is our own business. Others Don’t interfere, Master Sword Sect. To be honest, I really admire you. You, the Sect Master of Sword Royal Sect and the leader of Sea Exploration Alliance, can actually do this. I really admire you."

Zhao Hai smiled slightly, then he raised his wine glass and said in a deep voice to everyone: "Everyone, I know that it is difficult to have a true friendship between us, because we already had hatred before we had friendship, but What I want to say is that hatred belongs to hatred, and interests belong to interests. We have hatred between us, but once something happens that is beneficial to both of us, we can cooperate. Once something happens that is unfavorable to both of us, we We can also cooperate. I won’t say too much. I will only say this. Come, let’s drink this drink together. From today on, this covenant will officially take effect!” (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature. , the novel is better and updated faster!
