Chapter 1011
There’s an old saying that with enough money, even ghosts will grind your grain. With the financial backing of the World’s Number One Gambling House and the muscle of the Xuanjian Sect, they managed to recruit many martial artists who were being hunted by enemies, as well as some schools of Martial Arts driven to desperation.
These schools were already dissatisfied with the world of Martial Arts. Like the Xuanjian Sect, they were relentlessly pressured by the martial community, always on the verge of destruction. Since the Xuanjian Sect was proposing an alliance, they had no reason to refuse. Coupled with the money from the World’s Number One Gambling House, cooperation met with no objections.
Now there were five schools gathered under the Xuanjian Sect with more than three hundred members, and their strength continued to grow. For the time being, they were called the Xuanwu Alliance.
"Many hands make light work," suggested a member of the Xue Clan. Since they had gathered so many people, why not let them directly seek out the five custodians of the Eternal Life Clan? Or simply have the World’s Number One Gambling House offer a substantial reward for any information provided.
In response, Gu Fan questioned where the money would come from and why the World’s Number One Gambling House should spend money if there was no profit to be made?
According to Gu Fan’s plan, they would use the Xuanjian Sect and the World’s Number One Gambling House to bring down the schools of Martial Arts, absorb their members and wealth, and then with that wealth, command these individuals to find the five custodians of the Eternal Life Clan.
Making money from money was in keeping with the World’s Number One Gambling House’s merchant nature. Therefore, the first step was to take down their common enemy and swallow up their wealth.
Under Gu Fan’s proposal, the leader of the Xuanjian Sect led the Xuanwu Alliance to directly attack another school, on the pretext that the school was unrighteous, bullying the weak, and exhibiting a strong Devil Cult-like trend.
By defeating this school and consuming its wealth, they intimidated the Martial Arts world and attracted more like-minded individuals to join them.
