"Sect Master, Li Qing turned around and walked away immediately after dealing with the masters from the Yanshan Alliance. He didn't leave a word."
"Ha, it seems that even Guishicheng's patience is about to be worn away. Take out the last secret technique from the Celestial Realm and send it to Guishicheng later. According to the rules, Yunlanyu and Qingxi I’ll send it to you two days later.”
"But Master, this is the last thing we have in the box. If we give it away, then..."
"Okay. Don't you know the current situation? It's already the last string and it's still stretched. No one can tell how long it can last. The cards in your hand must be played when they should be played. Even if there is only the last one We cannot lose an inch. Haoxuemen has already run out of retreat."
Seven hundred years.
This time is actually not a long time span for an immortal like Xue E. But what happened in the past few hundred years made him, and the entire Haoxue Sect, like beans put into the devil's eyes, being quickly consumed bit by bit.
Not only was the overall strength of Haoxue Sect weakened, but also the confidence and morale of everyone.
Although today's Haoxuemen still behaves bravely and not afraid of death. But Xue E knew clearly that it was just a matter of being strong on the outside and working hard on the inside. From a disciple to an elder, his heart was still more helpless and despairing.
Who would have thought that if you fight well and have a good head start, you will feel that you will be able to fight like a tiger with even more power. It even dragged the entire Pastoral sect into the water and started an internal cleansing from top to bottom and then from bottom to top. Eradicate Qingshan Wonderland who wants to live alone and attack the forces under his command.
Although this may be difficult, it is not completely hopeless. At least based on the momentum built by the Lord of Cliff Mountain who ignited this fire in the beginning, the hope is not small.
But what's the result? Everyone was ready for a big fight and even risked their lives. As a result, there was no news from the owner of Cliff Mountain. Even the three top forces including Gui Shicheng did not get any useful information through their own information channels. I just heard that the Lord of Cliff Mountain showed off his power at a grand celebration of the Chaos Sect, using his golden immortal power to defeat Da Luo Yunyun...
No one believed the outrageous news. How can the gap between Jinxian and Daluo be so great that they can fight each other? Are the madmen from the Chaos faction even boasting so ridiculously now?
In the end, no one found Zhang Yan.
The most direct consequence is that it is impossible to continue the cards in Haoxuemen's hand. After the secrets were exchanged one by one, their value plummeted.
And value is related to the life and death of Haoxuemen.
The only thing Xue E was thankful for was that the time span was the same in the immortal's inertial perception. They don’t push one thing forward as intensively as ordinary people do. What's more, at the beginning, no one knew that the Lord of Cliff Mountain would suddenly disappear for such a long time. It was not until the next three hundred years that clues slowly emerged.
Real fighting also occurred frequently in the next three hundred years.
Taking the new Dahongtian where Haoxuemen is located as the center, and then filling it with the first and second-rate forces under the three top forces of Guishicheng, Yunlanyu and Qingxitian, coupled with the construction of the magic circle, finally formed Create a void realm that is both offensive and defensive. It is also a land shrouded in war. On the opposite side of the war is the power of the Qingshan Wonderland Alliance, which is strategically located.
No matter from which aspect you look at it, Haoxue Sect is a "symbol". Its value is not their own, but the inheritors from the great world, that is, the gift given by the Lord of the Cliff Mountain to become a symbol of this world. The center of a vast war. Although somewhat involuntarily.
Now Xue E doesn't have to feel it, even Guishicheng has obviously lost his patience. Not to mention the thoughts of Yunlanyu and Qingxitian.
Instead of spending time with a Haoxue Sect that is gradually becoming worthless, like a fool, it is against the Qingshan Wonderland that has to eliminate the "rebellion". This is completely inconsistent with the principle of exchange of interests. Even strictly speaking, from the time Zhang Yan disappeared until now, the three families have paid much more than they have received. It's already a loss-making business. Still insisting that in fact it can be said that the forces on the Pastoral faction pay more attention to face and Chen Nuo.
If it were the Chaos Sect, the loss-making business would have been overturned early on. I don’t have enough money to worry about running up and down here with you.
"Sect Master, or we should run away. The Haoxue Sect's methods follow extreme rules. With slight changes, we can gain a foothold in the Chaos Sect."
This suggestion was not put forward by Li Yan first. As early as three hundred years ago, after Zhang Yan was confirmed to be missing, the elders of Haoxue Sect mentioned it. But he was pushed back by Xue Ehao's scolding. Now Li Yan raised it again after careful consideration.
Instead of Haoxuemen fighting to the last drop of blood, it would be better to leave some blood to continue. It's just that you have to leave behind the hard-earned foundation. Maybe it will be difficult to integrate into the Chaos Faction. But no matter how hard it is, is it possible for everyone to die together?
Seeing that Xue E didn't speak, Li Yan felt relieved. You must know that the last time an elder dared to say that, he was immediately slapped to the ground by Xue E. He said that he should not disturb the morale of the army. If he dared to say this again, he would be executed according to the sect's rules.
Therefore, Li Yan felt that his words just now took a lot of risks. But now the situation is difficult and cannot be delayed any longer. Once the final trump card is given out, Haoxuemen will really have nothing left. When the time comes, it would not be unusual for the three top powers to withdraw, or even turn against them. Those waiting for Haoxuemen can only be killed by Qingshan Wonderland.
You have to leave early! Before Qingshan Wonderland could see the signs of victory, before the three Guishi City families were convinced that Haoxue Sect had completely lost its value. No matter how late it is, there is no chance to leave.
Of course, it doesn't mean that you can live by running to the Chaos Sect. The Chaos sect is still open to debate whether it will be accepted or not. After all, what he said just now was just Li Yan's wishful thinking. The specific implementation can still be called a narrow escape.
But it’s better than certain death!
After being silent for a long time, Xue E said: "Hey, time is also fate. Li Yan, go down and discuss this matter with the elders. Try to recruit disciples with high talents. The strength must be reasonably matched. You also go."
"This... if the disciple leaves, it will be easy for the outside world to notice. So the disciple is willing to stay."
Xue E shook his head and said with a smile: "You are good at dealing with the outside world. You also know a lot about the Chaos Sect. If you don't lead the team, who will? As for the outside world? I will sit in Haoxue Sect with the Great Elder to attract attention. Come. Then you will be able to walk more smoothly."
Li Yan was shocked when he heard this. He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xue E, who waved his hand and said: "Today's disaster in Haoxuemen is directly related to me. I must shoulder this responsibility. Besides, if I don't stand in front, you guys You can't leave. Li Yan, prepare as I say. The number of people... should be controlled within three hundred."
Three hundred... Li Yan opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say a word and could only nod his head with a heavy face.
But before Li Yan could turn around and leave, a jade sword broke through the space and plunged straight down, falling into her hand with Li Yan's shocked and ecstatic expression...
