The Primordial War: The Symbol Emperor

"The alliance of sharing honor and disgrace is of great importance, and I dare not make a decision for the time being. Perhaps you should wait a few more days, fellow Daoist, and allow me to consider it?" Zhuque said apologetically.

Upon hearing this, a look of anxiety flashed in the mermaid's eyes, but she quickly concealed it and smiled gently.

"Fellow Daoist, your prestige within your clan is at its zenith, and your influence throughout the primordial world is equally remarkable, holding a pivotal position. Why would you need to consult your clansmen about such a trivial matter as forming an alliance?"

The mermaid and Suzaku had known each other for many years; how could she not understand her meaning? She was clearly trying to stall for time to accumulate more benefits.

Knowing this is one thing, but this time the strongest beings of the primordial world are coming with great force, showing no sign of giving up until they achieve their goal.

The mermaid didn't have many allies, and the allies she knew didn't have the strength of the Vermilion Bird Clan and didn't dare to participate in this struggle.

Aside from the Vermilion Bird Clan, she really couldn't find any other allies.

Because only the Sea God Clan and the Star Clan can rival the Vermilion Bird Clan. Other races, holy lands, dynasties, etc., from the beginning of creation were all damaged in the Great Calamity and have not yet recovered their strength.

Leaving aside whether they are willing to form an alliance, even if they are, how much effort can they put in?

So only the Star Clan remains. However, although the Star Clan was not harmed in the great battle of the ferocious beasts more than two hundred eons ago, the starry sky is a place of right and wrong.

How could a mermaid dare to form an alliance with the Star Clan, sharing both glory and shame?

Besides, wouldn't seeking help from the Star Clan require some sacrifice?

Compared to the Sea God Clan, profit is a minor matter; what they fear most is the Star Clan's promises.

For example, if a promise is made and there is another great war more than two hundred eons later, and the Star Clan demands that the promise be fulfilled, wouldn't the Sea God Clan be plunged into danger again?

In short, asking the Star Clan for help is definitely not worth the risk.

Even without a promise, the mermaid didn't want to have too much entanglement with the Star Clan.

Because the starry sky is just too complex!

Therefore, only the Vermilion Bird Clan remains, possessing immense strength and power, making them the most suitable ally.

The mermaid's eyes sparkled, and she suddenly looked at Wei Chen, revealing a gentle smile. "I have long admired your divine power, fellow Daoist. It is my honor to finally see your true form today."

"Hehe!" Wei Chen chuckled. He liked hearing such honest words, and his goodwill towards the mermaid immediately increased, but he did not respond.

He has no understanding of political negotiation. To put it another way, he's good at killing, but asking him to interfere in matters between two tribes is like forcing a duck onto a shelf.

He didn't care what the Vermilion Bird meant or what the mermaid's purpose was; he just needed to stand firmly behind the Vermilion Bird.

"Fellow Daoist's comprehension of the Dao of Formation has reached the Saintly level, far surpassing our own," the mermaid praised lavishly, then offered an astonishing temptation. "Our clan possesses numerous grand formations from the beginning of creation, as well as spiritual treasures related to the Dao of Formations. Furthermore, we have many rare and wondrous objects whose uses are unknown. Would you be so kind as to join me in studying them?"

Besides forming an alliance with the Vermilion Bird Clan, she came here to find Wei Chen. If she could recruit him, that would be ideal; if not, establishing a good relationship would still be of great benefit to the Sea God Clan.

It's simply because Wei Chen's array formations are too terrifying!

This is not the most terrifying thing about Wei Chen. The most terrifying thing is that Wei Chen is not afraid of cause and effect.

This was absolutely terrifying to the Primordial Forces, even more so than the fear of terrorists.

Because no one knows if Wei Chen might suddenly set up an ambush against them.

Just like the three supreme powers of the West, they were trapped in the great formation and at the mercy of others. If it weren't for the protection of the Heavenly Dao, they would have no way to seek justice after death.

If the Sea God Clan had Wei Chen in charge, then this division of the Sea God Clan would be a joke, because even if it were divided among them, they wouldn't dare to use their territory as a training ground.

Once you offend Wei Chen, you have to be careful when you go out. If you fall into an ambush, and you don't have a high position, you'll die.

This can be seen from Wei Chen revealing his treasure and whereabouts.

Wei Chen has no luck, so killing him would be equivalent to avoiding any karmic consequences.

But who would dare to hunt down Wei Chen?

Everyone was afraid that if they couldn't kill Wei Chen, they would have to live in fear whenever they went out.

In the primordial world, Wei Chen was practically a pillar of stability. As long as he lived, anyone who attacked the forces behind him would have to consider Wei Chen's revenge.

In conclusion, while gaining Wei Chen's support might not guarantee the world's dominance, ensuring the clan's continued prosperity is certainly within reach.

The mermaid could see this, and so could the Vermilion Bird. Therefore, she wasn't worried at all about those supreme beings coming to divide up the South; she was afraid they wouldn't dare to come.

The mermaid looked at Wei Chen expectantly, desperately wanting him to join her. She was even willing to reveal her wealth in hopes of swaying him.

"Fellow Daoist's sincerity is too much for me to refuse. However, I am preoccupied with worldly affairs and can only visit again another day. I hope you will understand," Wei Chen said with a smile.

Although the treasures were good, he already had plenty. As for the Dao of Arrays, he had the Heavenly Evolution Array Diagram, and other array-related spiritual treasures would be good, but their absence wouldn't stop him from comprehending arrays.

Most importantly, he doesn't even have time to cultivate now, so where would he find the time to comprehend formations?

Moreover, the mermaid's intentions are so obvious, and it's a sensitive time right now, so how could he possibly go?

"Very well, I look forward to your arrival, fellow Daoist." The mermaid looked disappointed, but this was within her expectations.

If the mermaid hadn't known that Wei Chen possessed so many treasures, she would have been very confident that the conditions she offered would win him over.

After all, without a supreme treasure, even with the best talent and starting point, one will not achieve great things.

Unfortunately, Weichen has too many treasures. The ones that are on the surface in the dormitory are already enough to make people envious, not to mention the hidden trump cards.

The treasures the mermaid offered, while enough to impress any supreme expert, were insufficient for Wei Chen.

Zhuque glanced at the mermaid meaningfully and transmitted her voice to Weichen, "Say yes to her!"

Wei Chen was taken aback, and asked telepathically, puzzled, "Why? What wicked scheme are you plotting now?"

"Don't you think she's beautiful?" Zhuque replied, seemingly unrelated to the question.

Wei Chen was speechless. He really didn't know what Zhu Que was thinking. This idea was too outrageous.

Having failed in their plan to acquire a million brides, they've now schemed against a powerful figure like the mermaid. Do they really think the Sea God Clan is so easy to mess with?

That's one thing, but why keep bringing him into this? They don't hesitate to play matchmaker when they see someone suitable.

There's probably no other woman like that in the world besides Zhuque.

Wei Chen remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he sighed, "With such a beautiful woman, what more could a man ask for!"

"This is the last warning. If you do it again, don't blame me for turning my back on you." Wei Chen transmitted his voice angrily.

This world is a big place, and there are all sorts of birds in it. If we don't take a tough stance now, who knows what kind of trouble Zhuque might cause in the future.

Zhuque smiled. Since things had come to this point, he didn't say anything more and started talking to the mermaid about forming an alliance.

Suddenly, Zhuque received a message. His brows furrowed, but then relaxed, and he raised his hand to reply.
