CHAPTER 1697: CHAPTER 1697: IF WE’RE GOING TO DO IT, LET’S MAKE IT A GREAT FORMATION!

Carson Flores’s eyes lit up: "That’s great, doesn’t this mean we have someone to hold the fort? From now on, when you speak or act, you’ll be more confident. Whoever openly defies the Celestial Palace or disobeys orders, just kill them. If you want someone dead, just say it, there’s no need to feel guilty."

Alfred Weaver asked, "What about the second matter?"

Carson Flores laughed: "Interests! People stand by your side and fight with others either because they genuinely support you, from an emotional standpoint, or because of profit. For most people, it’s about profit. To motivate them, you have to offer sufficient benefits."

"The Celestial Palace has been ruling the Immortal Domains for such a long time. Even if the Domain Master doesn’t care much, there should still be some income and accumulation, right?"

Alfred Weaver nodded and answered affirmatively: "Yes, the Immortal Palace Treasury. There are quite a few magical treasures, Cultivation Techniques, and rare treasures inside, but the Immortal Elixirs are mostly gone. These were all tributes from various continents over time. My father didn’t manage many things, and there aren’t many people in the Celestial Palace, so quite a bit has been accumulated."

Carson Flores laughed: "As long as there is something. These things might not be of much use to top-tier forces, but for those with room for growth, there will always be attraction. Moreover, since this is a war, all the things of the loser naturally become the spoils of war for the victor."

"With war, victory naturally brings rewards. When the time comes, take these rewards as spoils and give them to everyone. That way, everyone gains something."

Carson Flores’s words weren’t unfounded. The Heavenly Alliance clearly isn’t just an organization of a few strong followers; they have probably already absorbed countless sects into their ranks.

The war between the Celestial Palace and the Heavenly Alliance will inevitably lead to countless sects being purged.

Every sect has its own territory and profit-making methods, and these can all be distributed to the victors as spoils of war.

War is the best way to get rich, so there’s no need to worry about not having enough benefits to offer others.

Don’t have it?

Take it by force!

Alfred Weaver was somewhat shocked by Carson Flores’s decisiveness.

So far, the skirmishes between the Celestial Palace and the Heavenly Alliance have been in secret. The Heavenly Alliance is secretly developing, and the Celestial Palace does not want its own decline to be discovered. However, according to Carson Flores’s plan, the conflict between the Celestial Palace and the Heavenly Alliance would rapidly escalate and even potentially produce uncontrollable results.

Carson Flores roughly understood the concerns in Alfred Weaver’s heart and softly said, "The growth of power is always the most difficult initially, but once it gains momentum, it’s difficult to extinguish. It will snowball, continuously expanding. In the end, it will become an unstoppable, destructive avalanche."

"For the Celestial Palace to take the initiative to make trouble is only natural. If you’ve been ambushed and still refrain from acting, it will make people think the Celestial Palace is already finished. If you got slapped in the face and didn’t dare to make a sound, who would dare stand with the Celestial Palace in such a situation?"

"By then, the vast majority of neutral factions would likely choose to stand with the Heavenly Alliance. After all, who wouldn’t want to fight on the winning side? If the Celestial Palace acts a bit stronger, everyone would see it as the dominant force..."

Alfred Weaver’s eyes lit up, finally making a decision.

Carson Flores was right. Being ambushed as the acting Domain Master is the greatest provocation against the Celestial Palace, isn’t it?

Isn’t the normal reaction of the Celestial Palace supposed to be a hunt across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths for the Heavenly Alliance?

If it’s as if nothing happened, once the news spreads, everyone will think the Celestial Palace is doomed. Under such circumstances, who would dare to support the Celestial Palace?

Carson Flores saw Alfred Weaver’s bright eyes and knew she had been convinced. He laughed: "It’s not long since the ambush happened. You can find an excuse to say that during this time, you’ve been secretly investigating the Heavenly Alliance and are now taking action against them. Didn’t you previously kill many subordinates of the Black Cloth Blood Envoy and the Red-robed Blood Envoy? You can write all this down as results of the declaration of war. This will make people even more aware of the strength of the Celestial Palace..."

"In the end, the Heavenly Alliance doesn’t dare to confront you openly, so on the surface, you can exaggerate how weak they are, claiming they’re on the verge of being wiped out. Now they’re just a drowning dog, and anyone can hit them with a stick. That’s the best way."

Alfred Weaver chuckled: "Alright, I understand. I’ll do as you say."

Looking at Carson Flores, Alfred Weaver’s gaze softened with gratitude: "It’s lucky you came. Otherwise, I would’ve kept enduring, secretly engaging with them. Thinking carefully, I would indeed be at too much of a disadvantage."

Carson Flores laughed: "Don’t be afraid, you are now the Master of the Immortal Domains. Be bolder, and if anyone doesn’t comply, just fight them. Worst case, we smash and run, so what are we afraid of?"

Alfred Weaver laughed: "Alright, let’s fight them!"

Carson Flores asked: "The Celestial Palace should also have strategists, right? You should leave this matter to them, have them plan how to amplify the momentum, make it known throughout the Immortal Domains, make everyone in the Heavenly Alliance uneasy, and make those who want to join the Heavenly Alliance hesitate. In this war, we’ll have already won half."

"The rest is to gather more strong forces, find the members of the Heavenly Alliance, and execute them repeatedly. Win enough times, and the Heavenly Alliance will turn to dust and ashes..."
