"People? Soldiers?"
"Senior sister, have you painted the old lake?"
Immortal Master Hongzhen sneered, and for the first time there was a hint of coldness on his kind-hearted face. A voice as cold as an ice cellar came from his mouth: "What do these things mean compared to the True Word Sect?"
"Pindao is the leader of the True Word Sect, so everything should be based on the inheritance of the True Word Sect!"
"Everything else is not something that a poor Taoist should consider!"
Several Taoists on the side also quickly persuaded: "Yes, Senior Sister Hongyi, don't forget your identity!"
"The Immortal Sect is more important than Liaoxi County!"
...
Hong Dao was speechless for a moment by everyone. After all, for a leader, the inheritance of the Immortal Sect is the most important thing.
If the Immortal Sect is severely damaged in this battle, or even the entire army is wiped out, that would be Immortal Master Hongzhen's true dereliction of duty as the leader.
After thinking for a moment, Hongdao persuaded again: "But junior brother, if Liaoxi County falls, the Zhenyan Sect's mountain gate will also be in danger. When the time comes, where will the Zhenyan Sect go?"
"Where can I retreat to?"
Immortal Master Hongzhen seemed to have been prepared for it, and said coldly: "If we really reach that point, we should abandon the mountain gate and retreat to the hinterland of Daxuan."
After a pause, he continued: "If the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up. When the time comes, a tall man will naturally take action."
Hearing this, Hongdao sneered and continued to ask: "I know that the master you are talking about is the Dragon Riding Martial Saint."
"But if that expert thinks like you and is unwilling to fight to the death with the Witch God, then who should protect Daxuan?"
Taoist Hongzhen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it. He could only say in anger: "The situation you mentioned is not within the scope of Pindao's consideration!"
"Senior sister, Pindao will ask you one last question, are you leaving or not?"
"Senior Sister Hongyi, let's go..."
The remaining Taoists also quickly persuaded.
There were even a few people who pulled and dragged Hongdao away, just using their magic power.
Seeing that he and everyone else had different ideas, Hongdao knew that he couldn't make sense. He waved his sleeves and swung everyone away. Then he turned his back to Immortal Master Hongzhen and others and said: "The third rule of our Zhenyan Sect is that all Zhenyan Sect members must be beheaded." It is our duty to destroy demons.”
"Da Xuan needs everyone to protect it."
"The Dragon-riding Martial Saint, there are demons that the Dragon-riding Martial Saint needs to kill. He may not be able to protect everyone. This requires us monks to eliminate demons, defend the way, and protect the human race."
"You go, the rules of the True Word Sect will be implemented by Pindao..."
"Even if my body is broken to pieces, I won't hesitate!"
Hongdao's voice trembled. Although she was the senior sister of Immortal Master Hongzhen, her cultivation talent was not as good as Hongzhen's. As early as many years ago, her cultivation had stagnated at the second level of the Taoist sect and could not advance, so the position of head teacher was not passed on to her.
However, Hongzhen was infinitely close to the level of half-step transcendence. When he saw the Witch God taking action, he was so scared that he might not even be able to block the Witch God's blow.
So she was very clear about her decision. When she gave up and left, it was equivalent to choosing a narrow escape.
Hearing this, everyone present in the hall breathed heavily.
After all, they are fellow senior sisters and have practiced and lived together for many years. Now that she is about to die Kang Di, it is impossible not to feel sad.
"Senior Sister Hongyi, I'll accompany you!"
Among the crowd, a white-clothed Taoist resolutely walked out of the crowd and stood side by side with Hongdao.
"Hongren, you don't have to be like this!"
Seeing the white-robed Taoist coming out, Hong Taoist's eyes became slightly moist at this time.
"Senior sister, at this time, don't you still know my thoughts?"
Taoist Hongren looked at Hongdao with affection, and finally said what he had hidden in his heart for nearly a thousand years.
"I......"
Hongdao's lips twitched, but in the end he said nothing.
"Is there anyone else willing to accompany them to die?"
"You can all stand over!"
At this time, Taoist Hongzhen finally showed his majesty as the leader and began to get everyone to take sides.
The crowd squirmed for a moment, but in the end, no one was willing to stand over.
"Senior Sister Hongyi and Junior Brother Hongren, please accept your respects from me!"
Seeing that the dust had settled, Taoist Hongzhen walked out of the crowd and bowed heavily to the two people opposite him.
"Junior brother, what do you mean?"
Hongdao asked curiously. She was a little confused about the change in Taoist Hongzhen's attitude.
"Senior Sister, please understand. The True Word Sect must be passed down. I cannot stay here with Senior Sister and Junior Brother."
"But the Taoist robe of the leader of the True Word Sect can accompany the senior sister in Liaoxi County to slay demons!"
As Taoist Hongzhen spoke, he took off his red Taoist robe and handed it to Taoist Hong's hands.
"Take care of yourself!"
"Junior brother, senior sister!"
After Taoist Hongzhen finished speaking, he bowed his hands to the two of them, and then summoned all the disciples of the Zhenyan Sect to leave Liaoxi County immediately.
In the blink of an eye, Taoist Hongzhen took all his disciples and turned into little bits of escaping light and left this place.
Just when Taoist Hong was still confused by Taoist Hongzhen's transformation, a message came from afar into her ears: "Sister, someone from the Zhenyan Sect must stay here in order to stabilize the officers and soldiers of Liaoxi County. We evacuate and buy time."
"At the same time, if I make a wrong choice, there will be monks from the True Word Sect fighting in Liaoxi County. Even if the court blames me, it will only be the junior brother who will be blamed at most, and the entire sect will not be implicated."
"Junior brother, after much thought, you are the only one who is most suitable."
"Senior sister has an upright character and will definitely not accept retreat. In the end, she will definitely accept the red robe."
"And as far as junior brother knows, senior sister's life is running out..."
Hearing this, Hongdao became furious and shouted angrily at Dun Guang, who had already flown to the horizon: "You bitch, Xiao Zhenzi, how dare you scheme against me!"
However, the escaping light on the horizon has long since disappeared.
"Sister, what happened?"
Hongren on the side looked at the furious Hongdao and asked.
"Well......"
Hongdao put on the red Taoist robe that symbolized the headmaster, and then explained apologetically: "Junior brother Hongren, senior sister wants to tell you something, don't be angry..."
"Senior sister's life is short. If she cannot break through to the first level of cultivation, she will have ten years at most..."
"What?"
When Taoist Hongren heard this, he felt as if he had received a 10,000-point critical hit. He immediately jumped up from the ground and asked loudly: "So you chose to defend the city here because your life is about to expire?"
"Even if you die, you can still gain a posthumous name!"
"What about me, what about me?"
"what should I do?"
Taoist Hongren had just broken through to the second level of cultivation, and at this time he still had at least more than two hundred years of life left.
If he died like this, wouldn't it be too worthwhile?
"Uh...Junior brother, listen to my explanation..."
"I don't listen, I don't listen..."
Hongren refused a few words. Seeing that Hongdao's face turned ugly, he quickly changed the subject and said, "Unless you agree to become a Taoist partner with me..."
Hearing this, Hongdao shook his head helplessly and said: "Xiao Renzi, after so many years, you are still like this..."
Hongren didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and directly confided in his heart: "Senior sister, do you know? When I first entered the mountain gate, the first thing I saw was you...I have never forgotten you since then... ..I know you can't choose between me and Senior Brother Hongzhen, and you've been putting it off until now... But now, we are about to fall, are you still unwilling to agree to me?"

At this time, Hongdao's old face showed a rare smile as pure as a girl: "I really can't do anything about you..."
"So, Senior Sister agreed?"
"Um!"
...
