Chapter 189 Yueyao is angry
Sang Yunqi's heart tightened, fearing that something might have happened to his little disciple, so he immediately released his spiritual sense to spread across the back mountain, and soon detected the presence of Chu Xinglan halfway up the mountain.
Without thinking too much, Sang Yunqi flashed and appeared directly by the stream. Because of the bright moonlight, he saw his disciple buried in the water at a glance.
Sang Yunqi breathed a sigh of relief and was about to carry the man out when he thought of his young disciple's shameful look before. In the end, he did not disturb him and directly retreated to the pavilion next to him, being considerate enough not to make any noise.
……
At dawn, Xu Zhuo, who had not slept all night, hurriedly summoned all the leaders and elders to gather in the meeting hall.
These people are in other people's territory, and they basically meditate instead of resting at night, so they come very quickly.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Xu Zhuo's solemn expression and felt a little puzzled.
Fairy Yueyao sat down in her seat and said, "Master Xu called us here early in the morning, but what's the emergency?"
After everyone else sat down, they all looked in Xu Zhuo's direction.
Seeing this, Xu Zhuo did not keep the audience in suspense and directly dropped the explosive news that the man in black robe and the demons were not superiors or subordinates.
Bai Rong, who was still somewhat weak, also appeared in the hall, but his face still looked a little haggard. It was obvious that the news of the annihilation of Baiyue Pavilion was a huge blow to him.
Hearing this, he stood up and asked anxiously, "Master Xu, are you serious? Is there any trace of the man in black robe?"
Seeing that his breathing was becoming unstable again, Xu Zhuo quickly spoke to comfort him.
"I know Pavilion Master Bai is eager for revenge, but don't be hasty. We still know very little about the black-robed man's specific information, especially now that he has caught us off guard."
"But we have opportunities to strike them recently. The man in black robes is still ordering the Shangguan family to prepare the secret realm."
"But our exchange competition has been cancelled. What's the point of the Shangguan family preparing a secret realm?"
"That's right. Especially now that we know what they are planning, how can we just go along with them? As long as we don't go, they can't do anything about it."
"That's right, and the Shangguan family is still preparing for the secret realm. Has the family switched sides?"
"Master Xu, is your source of information reliable?"
Most people in the hall were incredulous when they heard the news. In fact, this matter could be solved very easily. If they didn't go, what was the use of all the arrangements made by the man in black robes?
Xu Zhuo raised his hand to suppress the crowd, "Everyone, please be quiet first. I know you all have a lot of questions, and I will answer them for you."
Seeing how he was taking his time, the others kept quiet out of respect.
Xu Zhuo then continued, "Ever since the Shangguan family master failed to survive the tribulation, we have been somewhat isolated from the news. We don't know much about the Shangguan family's recent situation."
"As for the matter of the secret realm, since the black-robed people have not given up, it means they must have another plan and will definitely force us to go there."
"I called everyone here so early to discuss this matter."
"According to my guess, the black-robed man is likely to take action in the near future. As for their methods, we don't know, so we can only be on guard."
Master Wuxin fiddled with his Buddhist beads and said calmly, "The incident at Baiyue Pavilion might happen again, or they might take hostages to force us to go."
Xu Zhuo nodded and continued, "Or they will send people to cause trouble in the areas under our respective jurisdiction, or even harm the people."
Fairy Yueyao frowned slightly, with disgust evident in her tone: "Maybe it's more than that. They acted without consideration, but we have too many things to consider."
"In that case, why don't we go back home quickly, before our homes are robbed."
Another head of the sect spoke up: "Last night, I received news that Anmo City was attacked by the demons, and there were heavy casualties. We have to send more people here. We don't know when the demons will send troops again."
"If Anmo City is lost, the demons will march straight in."
As he spoke, the man glanced at Master Wuxin and said, "Then Hanshan Temple will bear the brunt of the attack."
Many people had received the news he mentioned, and they all nodded when they heard it. Anmo City had a special geographical location and was considered the first line of defense against the demons.
Behind them is Hanshan Temple. Their martial arts are extremely strong and masculine, and have a restraining effect on the demons, so they have been guarding the second line of defense for many years.
Master Wuxin glanced at the person who spoke and said, "Brother has urgently sent elders and disciples over, but there is still a shortage of manpower."
"In this case, we have to guard against the demons and the black-robed men at the same time. How is this possible?"
"We definitely can't send anyone to Anmo City."
"That's right. Currently, the only two places that are able to send out personnel are Cangqiong Mountain and Yuehua Palace."
"The Gong family and the Shangguan family have now both sided with the black-robed man. This is simply unbelievable. It is simply a devastating blow to our cultivation world."
Except for Wuxin, Yueyao and Xu Zhuo, everyone below began to speak one after another, but in the end, they all wanted these big sects to contribute, while they just wanted to guard their own little piece of land.
In their view, these three major sects have always occupied the most resources and the best human resources, so they should naturally take the lead at this time.
For a moment, everyone was thinking about their own things, and put aside the problems that had been worrying them just now.
Xu Zhuo thought about Shangguan Wei's desperate look last night, and disgust began to arise in his heart again. This was why he had always been reluctant to sit with these people.
He could not see any trace of the spirit of a monk in them. Instead, they were immersed in power and interests for years and had completely forgotten the beliefs they had when they first embarked on this path.
Yue Yao didn't have as good a temper as him. She slapped the small table beside her with her bare hands. The powerful force immediately broke the table into pieces. Under the guidance of her spiritual power, a few pieces of debris passed through the faces of the leaders who spoke the most happily, leaving a trail of blood.
Her sudden move startled the noisy people in the hall, and they all looked at her angrily.
"Fairy Yueyao, how dare you attack us without permission?"
Yue Yao sneered, her eyes showing disdain without disguising it: "It was just an accident, Sect Leader Liu, please don't talk nonsense, aren't we all allies? Why would I attack my allies?"
Without waiting for those people to refute, Yue Yao continued, "In the past, Anmo City has always been guarded by our main forces. You guys just sent a few people as a token of your respect. Now you still have the nerve to say that you suffered heavy casualties?"
"Since no one wants to send anyone, then we can just abandon Anmo City. When the demons send out troops, they will not attack Yuehua Palace first."
"I don't think it's necessary for Hanshan Temple to guard that godforsaken place. They can barely get food, so why would they care about the demons? I believe the demons will be happy if Hanshan Temple says they won't get involved."
