Although not at the very top of the Eight Grand Clans, the Ye Family was second only to the Guo family. If Ye Qingshan hadn't been ambushed back then, the Ye Family might have become the strongest of them all. They were still strong now, just not as strong as the Guo family.
Important members of the Eight Grand Clans were gathered in a secret meeting room for a discussion.
At that moment, Guo Yaolin, the Family Head of the Guo family, spoke. "We have been discussing the matter of forming an alliance for several years now, but it has failed every time. Today, I want to state my position. If each of our Eight Grand Clans stands alone, our strength is weak, and we are absolutely unable to contend with the Four Great Millennium Families.
"But if we form an alliance, it's a completely different story," he continued. "I can say that once we are allied, even the Four Great Millennium Families will have to yield to us! So, I still hold the same view as before—we must form an alliance!"
