Lin Zhiyuan, too, had faced countless storms, and his mind remained resilient. If just a word from Wang Fengna could suggest his willingness to surrender, it was entirely because of Wang Fengna’s imposing reputation. Fear lingered in his heart, so when Wang Fengna threatened him with the fate of his family—the matter he most cared about—Lin Zhiyuan was thrown into complete disarray.

Fortunately, at that moment Qi Tian timely reminded him, and Lin Zhiyuan quickly came to his senses. Since he had decided to join forces with Qi Tian and others, it was destined that he would offend the Eight Pill Alliance. No matter what actions he took afterward, even if he groveled like a dog before the Eight Pill Alliance, they would always have a thorn in their side regarding him. They might not settle scores with him now, but in the future, they were bound to take the opportunity to settle both new and old accounts. Then, the Lin family would still be unable to withstand the blow. Instead of ending up like that, it was better to clarify his stance now and secure the greatest benefits for himself. Even if the Eight Pill Alliance took revenge later, at least he could secure some advantages now; that was far better than gaining nothing and attracting trouble.

Lin Zhiyuan let out a cold sneer and said, “Vice Leader, I’ve always admired the Eight Pill Alliance, buying a significant amount of cultivation resources from you every year. Indeed, I’ve been a loyal customer. I remember that in Wanjie City, the Eight Pill Alliance was quite business-savvy. Whenever I visited, I felt like a cherished guest, yet how come once we leave Wanjie City, the Eight Pill Alliance puts on a different face towards us loyal customers, treating us like sheep to be plundered and slaughtered?”

Wang Fengna replied, “Lin Zhiyuan, ever since our paths crossed, have we ever done anything too outrageous to you? Have we ever threatened your life? No, haven’t we? But look at what you’re doing? Conspiring and forming Arrays, you’re clearly treating the Eight Pill Alliance as the enemy. How do you expect me to feel about such actions?”

Lin Zhiyuan responded, “Vice Leader, in these matters, one may argue one’s case as just, while another may argue hers just as well. We can’t possibly convince each other, so it’s better to do what feels comfortable for us. That would be for the best.”

Wang Fengna’s face darkened. She realized that trying to shake Lin Zhiyuan’s resolve with further words was no longer possible. She glanced at Zhao Haiying, Qi Tian, and the others, quickly weighed her options, and decided against trying to sway Qi Tian and his group. The two groups’ ability to come together and form the Twenty-four Star Array meant they had considered various possibilities. It would be extremely difficult to shake them with mere words.

Knowing that words would be futile, Wang Fengna’s next thought was to use force to make Qi Tian, Lin Zhiyuan, and their group submit. The core group of eight Gold Core cultivators in the Eight Pill Alliance were all very forceful individuals; otherwise, they wouldn’t have managed to establish a power in Nascent Soul Master-dominated Wanjie City that could stand against major forces. They wanted to control their own destinies, so naturally, they would seize any opportunity to enhance their strength. Anyone or anything daring to block this opportunity would be considered an enemy, and they would use any means necessary to crush them into dust.

Wang Fengna gave a whistle, and all the Gold Core Realm experts observing the Defensive Barrier flew back, congregating beside her, looking ominously at Qi Tian, Lin Zhiyuan, and their group.

Wang Fengna employed the Sound Transmission Skill, telling everyone to put aside everything else and to focus on analyzing the Twenty-four Star Array laid out by Qi Tian’s group. If possible, they should attack and try to break the Array, and at any cost, they had to undermine Qi Tian’s group’s morale, rendering them too weak to resist and ready to blindly follow the Eight Pill Alliance’s every command.

Among the Eight Pill Alliance’s representatives this time, both Wang Fengna and Commander Yang were skilled in Arrays. Even the other Gold Core Realm experts had some understanding of Arrays—it couldn’t be said that they all were experts, but at the very least, they were not completely ignorant in this aspect.

The dozen Gold Core Realm experts from the Eight Pill Alliance surrounded the Twenty-four Star Array, observing and communicating through Sound Transmission. As time passed, the expressions on the faces of the Gold Core Realm experts grew increasingly grim.

There were many versions of the Twenty-four Star Array. Some versions offered only a limited boost, while others were so effective that they could dramatically concentrate the power of the twenty-four individuals forming the Array to unleash tremendous combat power.

Unfortunately for the Eight Pill Alliance, the version of the Twenty-four Star Array that Qi Tian and his group had set up was quite sophisticated. It couldn’t be boasted as the most effective one, yet it was not far off.

With such an intricate method of setting up the Array, once Qi Tian and the other twenty-three Gold Core Realm experts assembled the Array according to the method, the effect was beyond Wang Fengna’s and their expectations.

For the time being, Wang Fengna and Commander Yang were unable to accurately assess the full power of this Twenty-four Star Array. Their consensus was that the Array should be able to demonstrate a combat power not weaker than that of a Gold Core Realm Level 6 cultivator.

At first glance, the combat power of the Gold Core Stage Level 6 may not seem very high. Wang Fengna was at the Gold Core Realm Seventh Level Peak, which should be enough to crush the Twenty-four Star Array, but don’t forget that Wang Fengna was not a combat-type cultivator. Even with the cultivation realm of the Gold Core Realm Seventh Level Peak, the combat power she could exert had to be largely discounted, approximately equivalent to the combat effectiveness of a combat-type Gold Core Realm Level 6, putting her on the same level as the Twenty-four Star Array.
