<h4>Chapter 2957: Chapter 2957: Tripartite Power Struggle!</h4>


    "Brother Zhu, it’s nothing. If anyone really dares to catch you, we brothers won’t stand for it!"


    "That’s right, with us brothers united, we can surely ovee any difficulty!"


    Albert Swan, Robert Hyatt, and others all expressed their agreement, saying it was not a big deal.


    Lionel Yeager also chimed in, "Brother Zhu, you don’t need to worry. By joining us, you won’t be a burden, but rather a great help!"


    Zhu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded firmly, "Alright, I won’t hide anymore. I’ll adventure through the Nine States Immortal Realm with you all!"


    Bardon Bard joked, "At times like this, if we don’t have a drink, it’s really too boring!"


    "Hahaha, that’s right, that’s right, let’s drink!"


    "Tea is too dull, drinking alcohol is more exhrating!"


    Robert Hyatt, Calvin Weil, Wilson Weisz, and others all burst intoughter.


    "Alright, let’s drink!"


    Zhu Yuan, influenced by everyone’s bold spirit, agreed.


    Robert Hyatt said to Bardon Bard, "Brother Bard, I know you’ve stashed away some good alcohol, hurry and bring it out!"


    "I haven’t stashed any alcohol, definitely not!"


    Bardon Bard shook his head repeatedly.


    Lionel Yeager rolled his eyes at him, "Stop messing around, bring it out!"


    "Alright..."


    Bardon Bard reluctantly nodded and then took out severalrge wine gourds.


    Once everyone filled their sses with alcohol.


    Zhu Yuan raised his wine ss and said, "Brothers, thank you for helping me eliminate those greedy people!


    And thank you for epting me!


    I raise this ss to you all!"


    Lionel Yeager smiled faintly, "Brother Zhu, from now on, we’re all brothers. There’s no need to say such things!


    Come on, cheers!"


    "Cheers!"


    "Cheers!"


    Albert Swan, Bardon Bard, and others also raised their wine sses.


    After clinking sses, everyone downed their alcohol in one go.


    After finishing a ss of wine.


    Zhu Yuan looked at Lionel Yeager, curiously asking, "Little Brother Yeager, where are you from? How did youe to know the Divine Dragon n and Ancestral Dragon n?


    And why do you hate the Great Holy Land so much that you’ve even learned the Golden Crow n’s ultimate skills?"


    Lionel Yeager chuckled, "Brother Zhu, I know you have many questions. Let me tell you slowly..."


    In the following time.


    Lionel Yeager recounted to Zhu Yuan the experiences he and hispanions had been through.


    Zhu Yuan listened, dumbfounded, his expression constantly changing.


    Until he finished listening to Lionel Yeager’s story.


    Zhu Yuan was still in a daze, unable toe to his senses for a long time.


    Lionel Yeager took a sip of alcohol, "Brother Zhu, that’s what we’ve been through, and our purpose foring to the Southern Fire State this time."


    Bardon Bard also downed a sip of alcohol, "Brother Zhu, you have no idea, we’ve gone through countless trials of life and death.


    If it weren’t for our many brothers and friends, we would’ve probably died halfway through."


    Zhu Yuan took a deep breath, "I really didn’t expect your experiences to be so rich. No wonder you achieved such cultivation and strength at such a young age!


    It seems I also need to go out more and experience more things!


    Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to cross the Great Golden Immortal barrier and step into the Set Myth Immortal realm!"


    Robert Hyattughed heartily, "Brother Zhu, rest assured. Under Brother Yeager’s leadership, your cultivation and strength will surely skyrocket!"


    "I can speak to that the most!"


    Albert Swan continued, "Before I met Brother Yeager, I was half a wreck, just drowning my sorrows in alcohol every day!


    But after meeting Brother Yeager, I not only rediscovered myself and returned to my pinnacle, but I also surpassed myself again and again!"


    Wilson Weisz, Ethan Louise, Roger Weil, and Derick Cobb all nodded in agreement.


    They too saw their cultivation and strength increase more quickly after following Lionel Yeager.


    Zhu Yuan nodded, then said solemnly, "Brothers, you probably also know.


    The Golden Crow Holy Land, Great Holy Land, and Isobel Goggins Family are all in the Southern Fire State.


    If you’re discovered by them, it could be very dangerous."


    Lionel Yeager frowned, "We know, of course, that the Southern Fire State is the territory of the Golden Crow Holy Land, Great Holy Land, and Isobel Goggins Family.


    But for the Hundreds of Crowing Birds to achieve Nirvana, for Second Senior Sister, Brother Sean, Bodhi, and Brother Qin to recognize their roots, we muste here."


    Zhu Yuan said, "The Ancient Vermilion Bird n, Ancient Green Luan n, Ancient Kunpeng n, and Ancient Phoenix n also hold considerable energy in the Southern Fire State.


    If these Four Ancient Divine Beast Families join forces, they canpete against the Golden Crow Holy Land, Great Holy Land, and Isobel Goggins Family.


    But,paring overall strength, the Four Ancient Divine Beast Families are somewhat weaker."


    Bang!


    Bardon Bard mmed the table angrily, "Is the Golden Crow Holy Land the strongest in the Southern Fire State?


    Is there no other force to contend with them?"


    "Of course not."


    Zhu Yuan shook his head, "In the Southern Fire State, there are two top-level forces capable of contending with the Golden Crow Holy Land."


    "Which two forces?"


    Lionel Yeager asked curiously.


    Zhu Yuan replied, "One is the Feather Transformation Immortal Country in the Central Domain, and the other is the Departing Fire God Religion in the West Domain.


    These two forces are not only top-level forces in the Southern Fire State but also in the entire Nine States Immortal Realm.


    Golden Crow Holy Land, Feather Transformation Immortal Country, and Departing Fire God Religion form a tripod of power."


    "Feather Transformation Immortal Country?! Departing Fire God Religion?!"


    Lionel Yeager was suddenly startled, "I’ve heard the elders mention Feather Transformation Immortal Country before, but this is my first time hearing about the Departing Fire God Religion."


    Everyone also looked at Zhu Yuan.


    They had thought that the Golden Crow Holy Land was the strongest force in the Southern Fire State.


    But they didn’t realize that there were two other top-level forces that could contend with it.


    However, if the Golden Crow Holy Land were the strongest force in the Southern Fire State, with its ambitions, it would’ve unified the Southern Fire State long ago.


    Zhu Yuan replied, "Feather Transformation Immortal Country, like the Golden Crow Holy Land, has ancient heritage and deep foundations, having produced many peerless strong ones before.


    Although many strong ones in Feather Transformation Immortal Country have fallen over the long years, there are still many strong ones guarding it.


    As for the Departing Fire God Religion, though its heritage isn’t as ancient and its foundation not as deep, it has risen rapidly using its geographical advantage.


    While its overall strength is less than the Golden Crow Holy Land and Feather Transformation Immortal Country, it’s still very formidablepared to other forces in the Southern Fire State."


    After pausing for a moment.


    Zhu Yuan continued, "If you brothers can establish connections with the Feather Transformation Immortal Country or Departing Fire God Religion.


    Even in the Southern Fire State, the Golden Crow Holy Land, Great Holy Land, and Isobel Goggins Family wouldn’t dare to easily provoke you."


    Bardon Bard said helplessly, "They have vast wealth and power. How could they possibly take notice of us or form an alliance with us."


    Robert Hyatt, Lily Tisdale, and others sighed and shook their heads.


    These major powers are certainly lofty, so why would they bother with a group of nobodies like them?


    Over the past year, they’ve alsoe to understand one thing.


    The Nine States Immortal Realm is even more ruthless, with rivalry and conflict, and might makes right.


    To earn respect and recognition, you need powerful strength and reputation.


    Otherwise, there’s nothing to discuss.
