Chapter 877: Chapter 663: Ten-Day Agreement_1

The Third Elder of Demon City, Moliye, who wanted to form an alliance with Ada and the Black Warriors, had just left when Wang An, the former second squadron commander of the Black Warriors, suddenly appeared with the First Elder from the Silver Empire. The First Elder’s wrinkled face was all smiles, like a crafty old fox.

"My sincerity," he said, "is far more genuine than that of Demon City, so I came to see you personally."

Ada looked at this seemingly decrepit First Elder, Lu Sanxi, while Zhang Kuo at her side expressed his confusion, "Second Brother, what’s going on here...?"

Taking a deep breath, Wang An said, "I’ve known Elder Lu for quite some time. The matter of the King of Thunder in the Silver Empire was also suppressed by Elder Lu, using his status and position as the First Elder. However, I did not expect the King of Thunder to seek the power of the Amori Clan. This King of Thunder..." As he spoke, he clenched his fist tightly, a hint of anger appearing on his face.

Turning her head to look at Wang An, Ada asked, "Are you the former second squadron commander? One of the three strongest Black Warriors ever mentioned?"

Wang An avoided Ada’s gaze and bowed slightly, "I am indeed Wang An, but to call me one of the strongest Black Warriors is an honor I dare not claim."

Ada hummed softly, then shook her head with a sigh, "It’s a pity, I still can’t remember many things from the past. I have no recollection of you, Wang An."

Taken aback, Wang An then gave a bitter smile, "No matter, one day you will remember everything, my lord."

Ada chuckled, "During the battle at Black Martial City, Moliye of Demon City was watching from the shadows. Elder Lu, could it be that you have also been monitoring us from the shadows? Hence, you’ve come to form an alliance?"

Wang An’s expression changed slightly, and the First Elder laughed heartily, "Ada, you are indeed perceptive. However, when Elder Lu and I learned of the actions of the Amori Clan and wanted to come to your aid, we happened to see this person..." Pointing at Su Yu with a broad smile, he continued, "We just happened to witness the birth companion of this generation of Ada displaying divine might, easily defeating the Amori Clan. Upon seeing this, we remained hidden and did not make a move. Ada, I hope you won’t hold this against us? Ha, hahaha—"

Ada smiled, "I see. Then, Elder, what kind of alliance do you propose? Do you, like Demon City, wish to vanquish the ten tribes and then divide the world among ourselves?"

Su Yu admired Ada silently. Whether it was Wang An or the First Elder, who seemed one step away from the grave, both exuded an indescribable aura of terror and a commanding presence only a superior could possess. Yet, when facing them, Ada remained unfazed as if unconcerned, giving off the subtle impression that she was leading Wang An and the First Elder.

Chuckling, the First Elder Lu Sanxi said, "Demon City wants to flatten the Silver Empire and then annihilate the ten great races, right? The ambitions of Demon City are too grand, alas."

After shaking his head with a sigh, he continued, "In truth, the Silver Empire has long been misunderstood by the world. All we have done was merely for self-preservation. Regrettably, within the Silver Empire, there are both good and bad elements, and many scoundrels have tarnished the empire’s reputation. Despite being the First Elder, I am powerless to change it."

Ada furrowed her brow slightly and abruptly said, "Elder, we are not interested in the domestic affairs of the Silver Empire. Please get to the point."

"Of course," the First Elder replied, his expression changing unnaturally as he tugged at his face; even someone as cunning as he was seemed awkwardly caught off guard by Ada’s blunt remark. With a forced chuckle, he said, "Our goal is simple, to help you eliminate the cancer that is the Amori Clan."

The First Elder’s words left everyone stunned. The First Elder of the Silver Empire came all the way here to offer assistance in wiping out the Amori Clan? Could such good fortune really be happening?

Zhang Kuo couldn’t help but say, "Assist us in eliminating the Amori Clan?"

The wrinkles on the First Elder’s face crumpled together as he smiled, "I know you all have your doubts. The reason for this—Wang An, why don’t you explain it? After all, you are also a member of the Black Warriors."

Wang An nodded and looked at Ada with a sincere expression, "This matter actually involves some internal strife within the Silver Empire. The three giants of the empire, the King of Thunder, and some elders from the Elder Council have colluded and joined forces with the Amori Clan, posing a grave threat to the legitimate rule of the Silver Empire."

The First Elder sighed, "It’s shameful. By the time I realized what was happening, these individuals had already formed a formidable force. Now, rather than saying I am assisting you in eliminating the ’Amori Clan,’ it would be more accurate to say I am seeking your help in eradicating this great threat to the Silver Empire."

With this explanation from the First Elder, Zhang Kuo and the others finally understood. The King of Thunder, being one of the empire’s three giants and also a Heavenly King of the Amori Clan, showed the extent of the Amori Clan’s infiltration into the Silver Empire. The First Elder had clearly recognized the severity of the situation and sought to ally with the Black Warriors to destroy the Amori Clan in one fell swoop. Since the Black Warriors and the Amori Clan were like fire and water, bound to clash in a battle to the death, it was inevitable.

Ada chuckled lightly and said, "The First Elder thinks too highly of us; in reality, our strength isn’t that formidable. As one of the ten great races and a civilization, the ’Amori Clan’—I believe, Elder, if you wish to rely on us, the hope is quite slim."

The First Elder smiled and replied, "Your Excellency needs not worry. I do not plan to use the Black Warriors as pawns to be sacrificed in the front lines. What I need is merely the name of the Black Warriors. Due to certain special reasons, we of the Silver Empire are unable to take action against the ’Amori Clan.’ Otherwise, once conflict arises between the ’Silver Empire’ and the ’Amori Clan,’ it might involve the ten great races, bringing endless troubles."

Ming Jing frowned and asked, "Using our name? What do you mean by that?"

Wang An took over and said, "It means we only need the Black Warriors to make a gesture. The one who will truly take action will be Elder Brother Lu from the Elder Council. He needs the cover of the Black Warriors to legitimately strike and destroy the ’Amori Clan.’"

The First Elder’s face, full of wrinkles, rippled into a smile, "Exactly, that’s the idea. I just want to temporarily be an ordinary Black Warrior under the command of Excellency Ada. The demi-god powerhouses of the ’Amori Clan’ can be left to this old man to deal with. As for the rest of you, you only need to handle the remaining eight great knight orders of the ’Amori Clan.’"

Zhang Kuo and others looked toward Ada upon hearing this. Wang An, being one of the Black Warriors, brought the First Elder with him—his words naturally carried far more credibility than those from Sherlock of Demon City. Their biggest headache, or rather the most troublesome issue in the battle against the "Amori Clan," was not knowing the exact number of fearsome warriors within the "Amori Clan" and how to deal with them. If they really formed an alliance with the First Elder, the strong members of the Amori Clan would be dealt with by him and his people, while they only needed to withstand the eight great knight orders, which would be much simpler.

Seeing Ada fall silent in contemplation, Wang An spoke up: "Elder, the Black Warriors and the ’Amori Clan’ are bound to confront each other sooner or later. The ’Amori Clan’ has already suffered the loss of two war-beast battleships and the ’King of Sound’ Sherlock, forging a deep-seated blood feud with us Black Warriors. At this moment, it is vital to strike first. Joining forces with the esteemed Elder Brother Lu of the Silver Empire to eradicate the ’Amori Clan’."

Ada, hearing Wang An out, smiled lightly and said, "Considering the current situation... forming an alliance with the esteemed Elder appears to be our best option. Given that, what reason could I possibly have to refuse?"

Upon hearing Ada express such sentiments, Wang An breathed a sigh of relief, and the First Elder started to laugh, "Good, let’s agree on this. How much time do you need to prepare? The quicker this task is carried out the better, we must catch the ’Amori Clan’ off guard."

Wang An replied, "We still need to release the Fire Meteor to summon other Black Warriors. I think ten days should be enough," he said while glancing at Ada.

Ada, with a gaze that was slightly profound, looked at Wang An and slowly said, "Very well, that’s settled then. In ten days, we shall convene at ’Black Martial City.’ Silver Moon, you must immediately rush back to inform Wang Heng, say it’s my command, to release the Fire Meteor and summon the Black Warriors."

"Yes!" Silver Moon bowed respectfully to Ada and then turned to dash away.

"Silver Moon, I’ll accompany you back to ’Black Martial City.’" Wang An said, bowing to Ada himself, and then followed after Silver Moon.

"Very well, we shall meet again at ’Black Martial City’ in ten days," the First Elder chuckled, sizing up Ada and Su Yu, then gradually retreated, until, at last, he too disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Only after the First Elder had been gone for quite some time did Ada finally let out a light sigh. Zhang Kuo suddenly said, "Elder, you don’t seem very enthusiastic about forming an alliance to deal with the Amori Clan?"

Logically speaking, at the moment, the "Amori Clan" was their greatest threat; the First Elder’s proactive offer to help them against the "Amori Clan" should have made Ada happy. However, the expression Ada was showing did not seem to reflect that.

Ada suddenly asked, "What kind of person was Wang An ten thousand years ago?"

Zhang Kuo and the others were taken aback. Ming Jing replied, "Elder, do you doubt Wang An? No, no, within our Black Warriors, there has never been a traitor to you, Elder. We would never, and certainly not Wang An."

Ada smiled faintly and said, "Let’s go find Qin Jiagui first, and we can discuss the rest along the way."

Su Yu affirmed with a sound, then asked, "Is ten days enough time?"

Ada replied, "I can sense that we are not far from where Qin Jiagui is located. Ten days should be enough to return to ’Black Martial City.’"

Zhang Kuo, following alongside, was also deep in thought. Suddenly he said, "Wang An and the First Elder of the Silver Empire are too close. Even, I suspect that he is now a person of power within the ’Silver Empire.’ I’ve always had this suspicion but never spoke of it. Nonetheless, I believe that even if Wang An is indeed a person of power within the Silver Empire, in his heart, he remains loyal to you, Elder Ada. Whatever he does is for the sake of us Black Warriors." (To be continued. For subsequent developments, please visit www.qidian.com.
