Chapter 224: Preparations for the Alliance Meeting

Three days passed like water through your fingers.

Lin Yi arrived at the meeting hall right on schedule.

The thirteen great elders had already taken their places. Last time Lin Yi was in the last seat, but this time he was given the first seat..

He smiled involuntarily. That's how important strength is. Without it, no matter what titles you are given, you will not receive real power.

Defeating two of Huashan's strongest elders earned him the position of true ruler of the mountain..

“Young Master!” two greeted him.

The youngest of the great elders could not hide their admiration now. They saw the duel and could no longer doubt Lin Yi's great strength.

Age in the fist world was not as important as strength. The younger generation defeated the older and became the elder. Since Lin Yi was stronger than each of them, then his words weighed more.

Of course, he had no intention of taking advantage of his position and pissing everyone off. As long as Lin Yi does not infringe on the honor of others, his position will be stronger than a mountain.

Some even reluctantly, but in the end everyone stood up.

Lin Yi nodded to them, politely and modestly.

He is not an upstart who has seized power, but a man who has thought through everything far ahead. Victory over the great elders did not make them his slaves - those who thought otherwise quickly learned how painful it was to fall from such a height.

He had already proven his honor, but he never suffered from arrogance. Now is the time to show your humble side. Prove that he is a leader and not an arrogant ruler.

Those who do not know how to adapt to the situation have no place at the top of the world. No one comes to someone else's monastery with their own rules.

Be arrogant when you have to. Be kind and humble when you have to.

Be the whole person, not just one part of the person..

Lin Yi took first place and said:

“Sit down, masters.”

The thirteen great ones sat down in order of strength. Thirty more elders stood along the walls, straight as blades.

Lin Yi glanced at Elder Yu to make sure he was fully recovered and nodded. You always need to know when to stop. He wanted to win, not leave his opponent bedridden for several months.

«Knock-knock-knock»

He tapped the table with one finger and all sounds in the room immediately died down..

Nodding once again, Lin Yi said in a stern tone:

“Today I wish to discuss the unification of the Five Mountain Swords Alliance sects.”

There were surprised gasps from the elders, who had not heard about these preparations before, and immediately whispers began to be heard here and there..

“Silence!" Lin Yi ordered, tapping his finger on the table. “I'm not here to get your opinions. The unification of the Alliance is inevitable and mandatory; nothing is more important for Huashan now. We only have ten days left before the heads of both Hengshan, Songshan, and Taishan arrive for a meeting to discuss this very issue. I have only one requirement. Do everything you can to make this meeting happen. Demons will surely try to attack us at such a vulnerable moment, so strengthen the armies in the east, west, north, and south!”

Lin Yi spoke loudly and clearly so that no one would have any misunderstandings. The four elders in charge of the four armies took a step forward and bowed..

“The main work will fall on your shoulders. I'm not asking you to "do your best." You must not allow enemies into our lands while the meeting is in progress, period. Do what you have been doing so far - guard our borders and prevent the demons from entering Huashan territory.”

“That’s right!” four commanders responded.

“The southern flank will have the most difficult task. It is from your direction that the four sects will come. If necessary, you will have to go out to meet them. But if not, then just make a safe corridor for them and don’t let the enemies invade our lands.”

“That’s right, young master!” the commander of the southern legion nodded seriously.

Lin Yi gestured for them to return to their seats and addressed the thirteen great elders:

“As for you, it is necessary to immediately start making room for the masters and representatives of the four sects. At this time I will prepare plans for unification.”

“That’s right, young master!” nodded the elders, excited as children.

The issue of unifying the Alliance will be raised in Huashan. Can anyone imagine a greater honor for their sect??

And not only honor. How much benefit will they get from this??

Their views on Lin Yi changed. It’s surprising that it was the young master who raised such a question. But how could they argue with him, the most worthy, now?

“That’s it, let’s not waste time,” Lin Yi announced..

One by one, the elders began to rise from their seats and leave the meeting room..

Looking at the backs of Elders Linghu and Yu, he smiled slightly. Now, defeated by one rival, these two old foxes walked together.

Dozens of years of enmity allowed them to understand each other more than a century of friendship could.

Lin Yi rubbed his temples and thought deeply about whether he had missed something. And mentally rereading all the preparations and not finding any problems, he nodded.

It's not easy to be one of the players. The pieces simply follow orders; they don’t even have to watch the game..

Frankly speaking, he liked being a fighter more than controlling one of the sides in the game. But if he does not take matters into his own hands, then Huashan will suffer the same fate as last time. Complete destruction.

And he has already changed so many things that memories from a past life rather hindered predicting future events than helped.

It was necessary to give everything to save Huashan. Even if we don't talk about moral duty, how else could he study the Nine Lonely Swords? There's no way he could have collected so many higher techniques on his own..

Only with the power of the strongest sect of the fist world will he be able to begin collecting them.

Power, whatever one may say, has always been a tool for collecting resources.

Only the largest faction, the likes of which had never existed before, could accumulate enough resources for at least one of its experts to become flawless.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

At times, power seemed like a heavy burden, but its benefits outweighed any difficulties..

Having come to this conclusion, Lin Yi found that it was now easier to think about the future. The path forward appeared more clearly than before.

A person without a goal will never become an impeccable expert, because such a person does not know where to go. He's like a fly flying in random directions.

Only by setting a goal and moving towards it, without stopping or interrupting for anything, can you cross mountains and see new peaks.

Finally, Lin Yi stood up and left the meeting hall, heading straight to the Sect Master.

“Big brother!” the guards greeted him, smiling joyfully.

“I’m going to the Master,” he nodded to them.

“Of course, come in, big brother!”

The guards opened the door for him.

Lin Yi had already visited the main palace many times and therefore knew it well. He went straight to the Master's hall, where he saw Ouyang Ming taking notes, and without waiting for him to finish, he folded his hands and said:

“Master.”

Ouyang Ming twitched, looked up from the papers, focused his gaze and smiled:

“And you came.”

“Yes, Master. I explained to the elders what to expect and what needed to be done. We have ten days left before the arrival of the masters of the four sects, you have everything ready?”

Ouyang Ming stared at him in amazement..
