Outside Green Lotus Peak.

After Zhou Chun exchanged glances with Xuanzhen True Person for a moment, his figure suddenly retreated into the Mountain Gate Great Array behind him.

The heavily exhausted King of Thunder Flood Dragon, Baibai, also swiftly transformed into a flash of lightning, flying towards Green Lotus Peak.

Seeing this, Xuanzhen True Person's eyes flickered slightly, ultimately giving up the attempt to intercept.

He was actually confident in stopping the Thunder Flood Dragon King Baibai.

But the problem was that it was hard to form a fatal threat to Zhou Chun, who had retreated into the Mountain Protection Array.

In a situation where a fatal threat to Zhou Chun could not be formed, further intensifying the enmity between both sides would be a case of losing more than gaining, not an action a wise person would take!

Overall, his performance today was already sufficient to account for the various countries and factions within the alliance.

Since even his full-force personal intervention could not take down Zhou Chun in three moves, for the sake of the alliance's interests, it naturally couldn't continue to offend someone like Zhou Chun to death.

He believed that the elders within the alliance would understand this point!

In fact, the original intention behind the establishment of the "Heavenly Spirit Alliance" was only to deal with the powerful demon cultivator allied forces invading the Tianling Region at that time, and logically it should not be meddling in internal conflicts among the various forces within the Tianling Region.

However, as time went by, everyone found that such an alliance could indeed play a big role under certain circumstances, so they consciously strengthened the exchanges between the factions within the alliance, implicitly expanding the range of the alliance's responsibilities.

Now, this Heavenly Spirit Alliance is already a de facto existing interest cooperation organization, where the elders can use this organizational platform to gain convenience and benefits for themselves and their factions behind them.

Like Xuanzhen True Person, this Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator, moreover, indirectly gained the power to mobilize the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators across the Tianling Region because of his role as Alliance Hierarch and greatly benefited from it, receiving considerable advantages from some alliance elders!

In this scenario, he is also akin to being tied to the alliance's war chariot, having to do some things even if he does not wish to.

Just like this time, when Alliance Elder Ziyang True Person was conspired against by a non-alliance cultivator colluding with fallen ghost cultivators, destroyed physically, and robbed of the sect's heritage spiritual treasure.

This matter, after several alliance elders in the Moon Wheel Sect and Sunflame Sect spoke up, along with alliance elder testimony from Fengguo's Jingyang Sect, requested him as the Alliance Hierarch to investigate thoroughly, helping the alliance elder to stand up and reclaim the heritage spiritual treasure.

Even though he knows well that getting involved in such matters has no benefits, for the sake of reputation and alliance status, he still had to come out and make this trip.

However, making this trip and testing Zhou Chun's real strength was already the limit of what he could do.

Now that it's clear Zhou Chun wasn't the soft target he could easily deal with, he naturally wouldn't get Zhou Chun as a mortal enemy for himself by deeply offending him without Yinyue True Person providing solid evidence.

Therefore, upon discovering Zhou Chun had already retreated into the Mountain Protection Array, Xuanzhen True Person made his consideration.

He just waved to retrieve the Profound Heaven Golden Ruler, this sect heritage spiritual treasure, then looked towards Yinyue True Person and said, "Taoist Friend Yinyue, with Taoist Friend Zhou's strength and potential, there should be no need for him to collude with ghost cultivators to harm you and Taoist Friend Ziyang; perhaps there's some misunderstanding not clarified here, in my old opinion, it's better for you both to sit down and talk it over!"

Hearing his words, Yinyue True Person frowned immediately, looking at him and said, "Taoist Friend Xuanzhen, do you suspect that I am lying? With Tianjing's strength, even if transformed into a ghost cultivator, it couldn't threaten me and Taoist Friend Ziyang. If it weren't for Zhou Zhengchun holding up Taoist Friend Ziyang, Tianjing's self-destructive ghost infant wouldn't have possibly injured me!!"

"But Taoist Friend Yinyue, can you provide evidence?"

Xuanzhen True Person, with a solemn face, stared into his eyes and said sternly, "If you can provide evidence proving Taoist Friend Zhou colluded with fallen ghost cultivators, of course, I wouldn't say a word and immediately gather all alliance elders to surround Zhou Family Mountain Gate, making it impossible for him to escape!"

"But now, if only based on your word, Taoist Friend Yinyue, not only am I hesitant to act, but most of the other elders within the alliance are likely unwilling to do so, either!"

Saying this, he also gave Yinyue True Person a meaningful look and said, "And besides, I believe that those friends from other regions and the esteemed senior powers such as Yuanyang Venerable would not like to see the alliance's power being misused like this!"

The Heavenly Spirit Alliance possesses two Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators and dozens of Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

If such an alliance would stand up for some sect within the alliance by exterminating another non-alliance force, it'd surely cause concerns to all other regional forces.

After all, no one can guarantee that they won't conflict with a sect within the Heavenly Spirit Alliance or feud with any alliance elder in the future!

And such a unified and consolidated alliance power evidently doesn't align with the diversified development format at the grand scale of the Human Clan currently.

It won't be favored by those Mahayana Phase Revered Ones.

This reasoning is clear to not just Yinyue True Person, but also to some astute alliance elders.

Therefore, he knows that Xuanzhen True Person is speaking the truth.

And since he couldn't provide concrete evidence of Zhou Chun colluding with ghost cultivators, Xuanzhen True Person, naturally, could use this as a reason to refuse further action.

If he continued to press on, it would turn into a conflict between him and Xuanzhen True Person.
