Xuanyan Tianxin led everyone into the official hall of the Ocean Imperial Palace. Then, she sat at the seat of honor and asked indifferently, "Fellow Daoist Bluestone, you should be from the deep sea's Heavenly Wind Hall, right? Say it, what do you mean by 'the deep sea'? Do you want to interfere in my shallow sea's internal strife?"

"Hehe, the Ocean Emperor has misunderstood. This one has two main reasons for coming here. The first is that when the various powers in the deep sea heard about the war between the Ocean Imperial Palace and the Three Tribes Alliance in the shallow waters, they all agreed that it would harm the foundation of our sea area, so they came down to stop it." Bluestone laughed.

"Hmph, damage the foundation? Furthermore, since ancient times, our Sea Palace has ruled this shallow sea. Today, the Heavenly Whale Clan and the Black Shark Clan have plotted to subvert the rule of our Sea Imperial Palace all the way to the entrance of our Ocean Imperial Palace, before we decided to eliminate them. I didn't expect that at this time, your Sea Palace would already have sent messengers, so why haven't we seen your Sea Palace mediating the dispute at this time? " Xuan Tianqing coldly snorted upon hearing this.

Ke ke, since the Sovereign of the Seas has seen that I am a member of the Tianfeng Hall, I believe that she knows that the cultivators of the Tianfeng Hall are all known for their speed. Indeed, I have rushed here without stopping after receiving the order, and only stopped when I saw that the Sovereign of the Seas was about to kill the chief of the Black Shark Tribe. Qing Shi smiled as he explained.

"If that's the case, then I won't say anymore. Fellow Daoist Bluestone came from far away in the deep sea. It can't be as simple as stopping my shallow sea from fighting, right?" Xuan Tianqing said expressionlessly upon hearing this.

"It's like this. The major powers in the deep sea hope that all races in the shallow sea can form an alliance and develop together." Qing Shi replied.

"Alliance?" The shallow seas have been well managed by my Ocean Imperial Palace for what reason do you want to form an alliance. " When Xuan Tianqing heard this, he asked somewhat angrily.

Hehe, the Ocean Emperor should have known that my Sea Clan and that Demon Clan were originally from the same sect during the Primordial Era. However, during the Ancient Demon Clan's era, the Eastern Emperor was at odds with my Sea Clan's Ancestor, Di Jun, and finally, Ancestor Di Jun brought his trusted aides to the sea realm, which is why there are still other clans in the sea today. Even though we have parted ways with the Demon Clan, the Deep Sea and Demon Region still call themselves the descendants of the Primordial Demon Emperors. Qing Shi smiled as he explained.

Even so, my Ocean Imperial Palace has been controlling the shallow seas for tens of thousands of years without any problems. Now, even if the Demon Area were to make any small moves, my Ocean Imperial Palace is confident that we would be able to ensure the stability of our shallow seas. We don't need any alliances at all. Xuan Tianqing said unyieldingly.

Secondly, our great clans and the strength of your Ocean Imperial Palace are similar, so how can we allow you to rule? This old man thinks that fellow Daoist Qing Shi's words are reasonable, and that our shallow seas should form an alliance so that we, the other clans, can discuss and decide on big issues together, and not let your Ocean Imperial Palace be the one to decide everything. At this time, Shark Minghai suddenly said.

"Hmph, Shark Minghai, what right do you have to spout nonsense here? If not for fellow Daoist Qing Shi, you would have been killed by my Ocean Emperor Sword. Do you believe that I wouldn't have allowed you to leave this Ocean Palace today?" Xuan Tianqing shouted upon hearing this.

You ?. "Hearing this, Shark Minghai flew into a rage, pointing at Xuan Tianqing, unable to say a word.

"Alright, Ocean Emperor, you don't have to be angry. I know that the Ocean Imperial Palace has ruled the shallow seas for tens of thousands of years, and it would be hard for you to accept the decision to let go of the Palace's authority over the shallow seas. I understand that, but your clan has already agreed to it. As he spoke, Qing Shi took out a jade slip and handed it over to Xuan Tianqing.

After a while, Xuan Tianqing sighed and said, "Forget it. Since the deep seas agree that the races of the shallow seas should form an alliance, then we will do as the powers of the deep seas wish. However, our palace must be the chief of this alliance."

"Is that appropriate with the Ocean Emperor? Is there any difference between this and your Ocean Imperial Palace continuing to dominate the shallow seas?" Whale Hanqiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.

"That's right, your Ocean Imperial Palace will definitely not agree to be the leader of our Blackwater Tribe." At this time, Shark Minghai spoke again.

"Humph, then what do you guys want? Do you want your Sky Whale Clan as the Alliance Master or Black Shark Clan as the Alliance Masters? Are you satisfied?" Xuan Tianqing sneered when he heard this.

This matter has already been arranged by Deep Sea. Deep Sea means that the leader of the alliance has the Ocean Emperor to take charge, after all, the Ocean Imperial Palace has controlled the shallow seas for tens of thousands of years, so it can be considered orthodox, and the establishment of the Elders Guild under the alliance has to be decided through consultation between the elders and the alliance's leader. And once this alliance is formed, the Demon Area will be under the unified command of Deep Sea. Qing Shi cut them off and said.

"Command?" Xuan Tianqing's eyes narrowed when he heard this, but after looking at the jade slip in his hand he said somewhat helplessly: "Alright, let's do that."

"Since the Sovereign of the Seas has already agreed, I believe the patriarchs do not have any objections." Qing Shi said as he looked at the others.

"We are willing to follow the will of the deep sea." The two of them spoke at the same time.

"Where is the Xuanwu turtle?" Qing Shi asked with some doubt when he saw that Xuan Wuji hadn't spoken.

Xuan Wuji glanced at Ye Tian and saw him nod slightly. He then said, "My Xuanwu turtle also has no objections."

Qing Shi frowned slightly as he saw this. He then said with a smile, "Haha, since that's the case, please return with the patriarchs. As for the details of the alliance, you can discuss it with the Sovereign of the Seas later."

Whale Hanqiu and Shark Minghai said a few words of courtesy before leaving. Xuan Wuji also left with Ye Tian's instructions. Seeing the three of them walk out, Qing Shi opened his mouth once again: "Ocean Emperor, I have another matter that I would like to discuss with you and your little friend."

Seeing Qing Shi point at Ye Tian and say that he wanted to talk alone, Xuantian couldn't help but frown before lightly instructing: "You can all leave. It's fine if little friend Ye Tian and fellow Daoist Qing Shi stay behind."

When Man Wushang and the Great Elder heard this, they bowed to Xuan Tian and left.

"Alright, if Fellow Daoist Qing Shi has anything to say, just say it. Does the Deep Sea have any other orders?" Xuan Tian indifferently asked after seeing that everyone had left.

"Hehe, this matter is not a matter of the deep seas, but a personal matter of our Tianfeng Hall. I would like to seek this young friend's help." Qing Shi smiled.

"Senior must be joking, this junior is just a mere Spirit Severing junior. What can he do to help the Heaven Wind Hall?" Ye Tian replied indifferently when he heard this.

"Then I won't beat around the bush. Although my Tianfeng Hall is far away in the deep sea, I've heard of little friend ? human strength slashes six Five Tribulations Loose Immortals consecutively, then slashes two of them in the swordfish clan. Both of them are well-known for having top-grade treasures, but I think little friend must have used some sort of secret technique to accomplish it, because even with little friend's cultivation, you probably won't be able to kill any of the Six Tribulations Loose Immortals." Qing Shi said indifferently.

"What Senior said is right. Junior did it through a secret technique." Ye Tian didn't even try to cover it up as he directly replied.

"Then it's settled. My Tianfeng Hall is very interested in little friend's secret arts, so I hope little friend can pass that secret art to our Tianfeng Hall. My Tianfeng Hall promises that if anything happens to little friend in the future, our Tianfeng Hall is willing to lend you a hand." Qing Shi said after hearing this.

Ke ke, senior must be joking. Junior is not a member of the sea realm and is a human cultivator, so I do not have much time in the sea realm. I am afraid that I will not need the help of senior from the Sky Wind Hall, and this secret technique was passed down by the elders of my sect. Ye Tian replied respectfully.

"That's right, Daoist friend Qing Shi, you are a human cultivator. You don't have any relationship with our sect in the sea area. Furthermore, since you have sworn an oath, it is better for you to not force others to do as you please." At this time, the Xuan Tianqing who had not spoken all this time suddenly spoke.

Qing Shi frowned when he heard this. He then asked, "Little friend Ye, if my Heaven Wind Hall exchanges my magical treasures and pills, would little friend be willing to pass that secret technique to my Heaven Wind Hall?"

Senior, it's not that I'm unwilling, it's just that this junior swore upon my heart, and truly does not dare to violate the oath. I'm afraid that one day I will die under thunder, so I hope senior will forgive me. Ye Tian bowed towards the limestone.

Since little friend is unwilling, then I will not say anymore. However, little friend, since you are a human cultivator, coming to the sea realm is very inconvenient, you should leave as soon as possible so as to avoid any unforeseen events and cause you to lose your life. As he spoke, Qing Shi's figure gradually faded and he instantly disappeared.

"Hmph, this bunch of conceited brats from the deep sea, if they can't obtain the secret technique then they'll become naked. Truly a humiliation to our Sea Race." After Qing Shi left, Xuan Tianqing cursed with a cold face.

"Many thanks to Senior Sovereign of the Seas for helping this junior just now. This junior will be forever grateful." Ye Tian bowed towards Xuan Tianqing as he spoke.

"Heh heh, no need to be so polite, I have long since forgotten about this little friend." Heh heh, no need to be so courteous, I have long since forgotten about this little friend. Xuan Tianqing smiled when he heard this.

"Senior, this junior doesn't understand. When Bluestone said that the various races of the shallow sea would form an alliance, your attitude was already so unyielding. Why did you compromise after reading that jade slip?" Ye Tian asked out the doubt in his heart.

"Sigh, we can't not compromise. The clan sent a message saying that the deep sea races are joining hands to pressure our race, and they want Drifting Water to form an alliance. In the end, it's just because they're jealous of our race that we're able to take control of Drifting Water. Xuan Tianqing sighed.

"So that's how it is. Senior, I have always been very curious, what kind of race is the Ocean Emperor's clan?" Ye Tian asked.

Hehe, let me put it this way, there are eight great powers in the deep sea, the Heavenly Wind Hall, Black Dragon Clan, Ice Phoenix Clan, Ocean Imperial Palace, Gou Snake Clan, Three Tailed Henggong Clan, Turtle Clan and Nine Infant Clan are also known as the Eight Royal Clans, of which the Ocean Emperor Hall is the most righteous, Ancestor Di Jun, but the Ocean Imperial Palace has never participated in any battles in the deep sea. We are from Ocean Imperial Palace, and all the previous generation of Ocean Emperor's emperors are from Ocean Imperial Palace. Xuan Tianqing explained.

"If that's the case, then why would the great powers of the deep sea focus their attention on this small place like the shallow sea?" Ye Tian didn't understand.

"Hmph. The strength of the eight powers in the deep sea aren't too different from each other. The so-called sparrow is small, but it has everything. How can they watch over this shallow sea by our ocean palace? They might even find an excuse to interfere." Xuan Tianqing coldly snorted.

"Junior understands. Oh right, Qing Shi will not let this matter rest until he obtains my secret arts. Junior should head back and make preparations to head to Savage Forest as soon as possible." As he spoke, Ye Tian bowed towards Xuan Tian before taking his leave.

"En, go ahead and visit that child Meng Yi." Xuan Tianqing spoke as if he had a deeper meaning.
