Chapter 386: Chapters 162-163 The True Identity of the Eternal Alliance Master (Combined Chapter, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Who exactly is the Eternal Alliance Master?"

Upon hearing this question, Ji Tianlu’s expression visibly changed.

He didn’t answer immediately, and Shen Changqing didn’t press him.

Actually, when the Eternal Alliance Master’s mask shattered, he had seen the other party’s face, but it was completely unfamiliar to him.

However, what was different was Ji Tianlu’s cry of alarm—Shen Changqing had heard it clearly, even with the thunder trying to drown it out.

Clearly, the other man knew the Eternal Alliance Master’s identity.

Now, it all depended on whether Ji Tianlu was willing to speak.

He still hoped to find out, if possible.

Under Shen Changqing’s gaze, Ji Tianlu’s expression first grew grim, then returned to normal before he sighed heavily. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"This matter was originally confidential. But since Elder Shen has asked, I shouldn’t hide it. However, there’s one thing I hope Elder Shen can promise me."

"Regarding the Eternal Alliance Master’s identity, please don’t speak of it to anyone else until it’s officially announced by the Capital City."

"No problem."

Seeing how seriously the other man spoke, Shen Changqing didn’t waste words.

Just from the look on Ji Tianlu’s face, he understood. The Eternal Alliance Master’s identity was even more complex than he had imagined.

Having received an affirmative answer, Ji Tianlu gathered his thoughts for a moment, then spoke with great solemnity.

"If I’m not mistaken, the Eternal Alliance Master is... the Martial Emperor!"

Martial Emperor!

Shen Changqing’s complexion changed.

He had heard this name before. Back when he was in the Capital City, he had heard it from Yi Ning.

"Defender Ji, are you saying that the Eternal Alliance Master is the Martial Hall Master?"

At this moment, Shen Changqing finally understood why Ji Tianlu’s expression had been so grave.

Martial Hall Master!

What an astonishing status that was!

Within the Demon-Subduing Division, that was equivalent to a Defender Envoy—and not one an ordinary Defender Envoy could compare to.

After all, the Martial Hall was of great importance.

Those who could serve as the Martial Hall Master were individuals of absolute trust.

But now, the other party was saying that the Martial Hall Master was the Eternal Alliance Master. If this news were to spread, one could only imagine the uproar it would cause.

He even suspected that once the news got out, it would sow deep suspicion within the Demon-Subduing Division. If even the Martial Hall Master had betrayed them, then who couldn’t betray them?

For a moment, Shen Changqing’s expression shifted unpredictably.

Ji Tianlu was also grave. "I desperately wish I was mistaken, but that was indeed the Martial Emperor’s face. I was initially curious about what kind of identity the Eternal Alliance Master possessed to have such formidable strength. But if it’s the Martial Emperor, then there’s no doubt."

"Is Defender Ji well-acquainted with the Martial Emperor?" Shen Changqing inquired.

Upon hearing this, Ji Tianlu nodded. "Strictly speaking, the Martial Emperor is my senior. By the time I joined the Demon-Subduing Division, he was already the Martial Hall Master. Although he wasn’t a Defender Envoy, his strength was sky-piercing and earth-shattering.

Ordinary Defender Envoys weren’t even qualified to face him.

But starting ten years ago, the Martial Emperor mysteriously vanished, and not a trace of news about him has surfaced since."

He paused, a cold light flickering in his eyes.

"I had assumed the Martial Emperor had either perished or was in seclusion somewhere. But now it seems that during his ten-year disappearance, he joined the Eternal Alliance and even became its Alliance Hierarch.

If Elder Shen hadn’t exposed his true identity this time, we might have faced an even greater catastrophe in the future!"

Consider this: how much trust could a Martial Hall Master command within the Demon-Subduing Division? And then consider how little others would guard against a Martial Hall Master.

If he were to return to the Demon-Subduing Division and strike from the shadows, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The mere thought sent a chill down Ji Tianlu’s spine.

"Wait, Defender Ji, are you saying the Martial Hall Master only disappeared ten years ago?"

Shen Changqing thought of something.

If he only disappeared ten years ago, then he couldn’t possibly be the Eternal Alliance Master, could he? The Eternal Alliance has existed for centuries; the timelines don’t match up.

With this doubt in his mind, he asked directly, "Could it be that the Eternal Alliance originally never had an Alliance Hierarch, or are you suggesting that the position of Alliance Hierarch within the Eternal Alliance has changed hands?"

"No." Ji Tianlu shook his head; he understood Shen Changqing’s meaning.

"The Eternal Alliance has always had an Alliance Hierarch. As for any changes in leadership, we haven’t received any such information from within the Eternal Alliance. If any occurred, they must have been conducted in secret!"

There were many things that not only Shen Changqing but even he himself couldn’t fully comprehend.

The Eternal Alliance was unlike any other.

Although this organization had allied itself with Demon Evil, Ji Tianlu had to admit that the Eternal Alliance possessed truly formidable methods when it came to extending lifespan.

Three hundred years or so. For an ordinary Grandmaster, that’s enough time to die two or three times over.

But for Demonfolk, their lifespans might not necessarily have been exhausted in that time.

However, Ji Tianlu wasn’t very clear on the Eternal Alliance’s internal affairs either. All he could do was report the information and wait for the Capital City to handle it.

Anything else was beyond his purview.

Hearing this, Shen Changqing nodded. "I see. Defender Ji, could you tell me more about the Martial Emperor?"

Martial Emperor. The name itself sounded simple enough.

Yet, an ordinary person wouldn’t choose such a title.

Ji Tianlu said, "The Martial Emperor was a prodigy in martial arts. His original name wasn’t actually Martial Emperor. However, his aspiration was to become the ultimate sovereign in martial arts, so he abandoned his original name and styled himself Martial Emperor."
