CHAPTER 1707: CHAPTER 1707: IF YOU DON’T KILL THE SNAKE, YOU’LL SUFFER ITS WRATH

"Saying that makes us sound like strangers!"

Alfred Weaver smiled and pointed to the chair opposite him, "Sit!"

Carson Flores sat down, curiously looking at the jade slips, "Well, any news from the Heavenly Alliance?"

"There is!"

With joy in his eyes, Alfred Weaver said, "Just like you said, the prestige of the Celestial Palace is still very high. As soon as the Immortal Palace Wanted Order was issued, we received a lot of information about the Heavenly Alliance."

"Many people secretly reported members of the Heavenly Alliance, and after collating and confirming this information, the Immortal Palace Guard Squad, representing the Celestial Palace, teamed up with powerful local sects to deploy experts and urged them to hunt down confirmed Heavenly Alliance members."

"These sects may not be genuinely devoted to serving the Celestial Palace, but in the current situation, no one dares to hold back. They all fear being categorized as enemies by the Celestial Palace for secretly colluding with the Heavenly Alliance, outwardly complying while inwardly opposing, or being slackers, which would make them an example to the others!"

"Many of the members absorbed by the Heavenly Alliance also turned traitor. After all, when they joined the Heavenly Alliance, they might have thought more about having a strong backing after joining a powerful organization and didn’t expect to be directly against the Celestial Palace. Once the Immortal Palace Wanted Order was issued, and with promises of past grievances being overlooked, they felt there was no future with the Heavenly Alliance, that doom was inevitable, so they defected."

Carson Flores laughed, "Isn’t this all good news? How many people from the Heavenly Alliance have been caught?"

Alfred Weaver sighed, "There are even more members of the Heavenly Alliance than I imagined. The information gathered from those who defected shows that the Heavenly Alliance has absorbed a large number of powerful individuals and sect forces. Their strength is considerable."

"The Immortal Palace Wanted Order has had a significant impact, and it has alarmed all the Heavenly Alliance members. Many members who secretly joined the Heavenly Alliance have now completely disappeared, evidently retreating into the shadows and fully joining the Heavenly Alliance, hiding themselves away."

"Although we have caught quite a few members of the Heavenly Alliance, their relative strength is quite low, not considered core members. The useful information we can get is very limited, and because they were alarmed, they have taken emergency measures. Now it is very difficult to find them."

"Overall, it’s very ostentatious and impressive, but the effect is not great. Now they have completely hidden themselves, and it is foreseeable that once they have gathered themselves, they will inevitably retaliate against forces affiliated with the Celestial Palace to demonstrate their power."

"They are in the dark, and we are out in the open. In this regard, we are at a disadvantage."

Carson Flores nodded, having anticipated these consequences long ago, or rather, it was the inevitable outcome.

The Heavenly Alliance is so formidable; how could they be exterminated without paying a price?

This is actually part of Carson Flores’s strategy!

Many people might not have wanted to deal with the Heavenly Alliance with their full strength, but when the Alliance strikes and annihilates one sect after another, will the other sects not feel threatened, wondering if they’ll be next?

When they are tense and even fearful, they have no choice but to cling more closely around the Celestial Palace, more united against the Heavenly Alliance, and even more frantically want to eradicate them!

Only when the Heavenly Alliance is utterly destroyed will everyone truly be safe.

Of course, submitting to the Heavenly Alliance and against the Celestial Palace is another option, but the vast majority of sect forces would hardly want to give up their legitimate identities to become rats in the gutter, right?

Overthrow the Celestial Palace?

It’s not that easy. The Celestial Palace might not even be overthrown before their own sects are wiped out multiple times.

"Is there anything we can do now?"

Alfred Weaver nodded, picking up a jade slip from the table and handing it to Carson Flores, "There are quite a few forces that have joined the Heavenly Alliance. I’m planning to make an example out of one. Here is my chosen target."

Carson Flores picked up the jade slip, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and his expression was slightly surprised.

The Heavenly Profound Continent, Demon Fiend Hall!

Carson Flores, having arrived at the Heavenly Profound Continent, had carefully studied the major powers there.

The Top Ten Immortal Sects are the premier superpowers, followed by a large number of first-tier forces, among which the Demon Fiend Hall is one.

The Demon Fiend Hall’s way of doing things is ruthless and merciless, to the point of being somewhat evil. They are often considered a part of the Evil Path, something even they don’t deny. However, their strength is formidable. Even if some people are unhappy with them, they can do nothing about it.

The Top Ten Immortal Sects can definitely deal with the Demon Fiend Hall, but with no grievances or enmity, who would act the hero and engage in a deadly fight with them?

Who doesn’t have some strong individuals?

Unless you can kill all their strong ones, any top-level strong person who escapes could make enough trouble for you.

Sect prodigy?

Kill them!

Sect’s Saint Heir?

Kill them!

Future successor to the Sect Master?

Kill them!

If a snake is not killed, it will bring about chaos in return.

The jade slip contained a detailed report, with the informer being one of the Demon Fiend Hall’s Vice Hall Masters, Wes Matthews. It detailed the process of the Demon Fiend Hall being subdued by the White-Clothed Envoy, now a powerful force under his command.

Wes Matthews expressed his deep-seated resentment, providing the most detailed information to the Celestial Palace and expressing his willingness to cooperate from the inside to help eliminate the Demon Fiend Hall members allied with the Heavenly Alliance.

Carson Flores, after reading it, laughed, "A Vice Hall Master reporting the Hall Master, this Wes Matthews obviously has an agenda, huh?"
