Chapter 1466 - 1465: Colluding Together
After hearing Ghost King San Yan’s request, the Second Elder instead grew cautious. He wasn’t a fool, and naturally understood the principle that unusual actions always hid ulterior motives.
The request of the Jade-Faced Judge was simply too easy, so easy that it made the Second Elder feel a trace of fear. As a result, instead of agreeing immediately, he watched Ghost King San Yan warily.
Ghost King San Yan seemed to notice the concern in the Second Elder’s heart and chuckled softly, "Second Elder, there’s no need to worry. I’m speaking nothing but the truth. My master sincerely wishes to forge a friendship with the Medicine Sect."
The Second Elder furrowed his brows slightly and stared at Ghost King San Yan for a moment before speaking in a deep voice, "The Jade-Faced Judge’s reputation isn’t much worse than that of our Medicine Sect, is it?"
"That was in the past!" Ghost King San Yan replied softly. "As things stand now, my master may indeed not be far behind the Ten Great Sects. But... what if the rules of heaven and earth were to change?"
A gleam of realization flashed in the Second Elder’s eyes, and he finally understood the Jade-Faced Judge’s meaning.
Indeed, if the rules of heaven and earth were to change, mortals would no longer be shielded by the Law Enforcers. In such a case, the Jade-Faced Judge’s status would plummet rapidly.
After all, the Jade-Faced Judge was not a Terrestrial Immortal and could never compare to the Ten Great Sects. Moreover, in past years, his overly domineering behavior had earned him many enemies. If he lost the protection of the Law Enforcers, the Jade-Faced Judge would find himself in grave danger.
Therefore, the Jade-Faced Judge sought to ally with a powerful sect. If the rules of heaven and earth changed, having strong backing would ensure his survival without fear!
