The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 883 - 281: What SOS Message? What Nonsense Are You Talking About in the Middle of the Night?
Wu Sha was momentarily stunned, then quickly understood. After a brief contemplation, he said, "Now the Taiqing Sect is almost devoid of people. Should we...?"
Sikong Yan immediately glanced over, his face cold, "Wu Sha, there is a limit to everything. Are you teaching me how to do things again?"
Wu Sha shuddered violently, his legs almost giving way beneath him, and he trembled, "No, no, I wouldn’t dare! Please forgive me, Palace Master!"
Sikong Yan was about to explode in anger when suddenly his body trembled, and he pressed his fingers firmly against his chest.
He then snorted coldly, "Lacking just one drop of blood, do you really think you can manipulate my will again?"
Slowly he straightened up, a sinister smile curling on his lips, "I needed some time to rid myself of this broken body, but now it seems the Taiqing Sect has done me a great favor."
With that, he waved his hand impatiently, "What are you standing around for? Go to sleep!"
Wu Sha felt as if he had been granted amnesty and hurriedly stumbled out of the sleeping hall.
...
Golden Thunder Sect!
Upon hearing the news that the Phecda Sect was under siege, Lei Lie panicked immediately and hastily sought out the Supreme Elders for discussion.
Currently, the Golden Thunder Sect still had five Supreme Elders, who gathered as quickly as possible to come up with a solution.
To save or not to save, that was a question worthy of deep consideration.
If they saved them, hadn’t they heard that the two allied forces had twenty-four cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection?
If they went with such a small number, they would likely be going to their deaths.
Moreover, the distance was great, and even if they started preparing now, it would take at least three days for the sect’s forces to arrive at the Phecda Sect.
If they didn’t save them, the Golden Thunder Sect would face a very difficult situation. Once the Phecda Sect was destroyed, and with the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect relying on the Taiqing Sect, what would happen to the Golden Thunder Sect?
Would they form an alliance with the Cangyan Daoist Palace? That would be like asking a tiger for its skin.
Taking care of themselves might lead to the Cangyan Daoist Palace suddenly moving against them one day as the Taiqing Sect did to the Phecda Sect, swallowing them whole.
At that time, their inheritance of thousands of years would be completely severed.
The even more critical issue was that the Sect Leader had become like this because of those dried corpses.
"Stay calm, we must stay calm, don’t rush!" a Supreme Elder said.
Another spoke up, "Rest assured, the Sect Protection Array of the Phecda Sect is known as the best among the Five Sects and will not be breached in a short time."
"That’s right, adding flowers to the brocade isn’t as good as sending charcoal in snow. We should intervene when the two sects’ offensive weakens and the Phecda Sect is about to give in. This way, we can demonstrate our sect’s righteousness while minimizing the cost for maximum gain."
Another Supreme Elder contemplated and said.
Lei Lie nodded reluctantly, but the unease in his heart grew stronger.
They’d still better prepare early, and who knows how Master was doing now?
"Order everyone to enter a state of combat readiness!"
...
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With the combined attack of twenty-four Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection cultivators, the Sect Protection Array of the Phecda Sect, comparable in power to the Tri-color Array, shone brightly.
Energy fluctuations spread out in all directions, and for a moment, the massive roaring sound was deafening.
The array’s surface continuously flickered with light, and the runes trembled violently, as if they might collapse any moment.
"How is this possible!" Master Yuheng staggered back half a step, staring fixedly at the spiritual power marking circle suspended in the air, his eyes full of disbelief.
Master Lingxu’s face was equally pale, "It’s all because of him! It was long heard that this youngster had an outstanding talent for arrays, but who would have thought just a circle would directly lock onto the weak point of the Sect Protection Array, which even we didn’t know."
Dubhe clenched his fist, knuckles white, "What do we do now? At this rate, the array will likely collapse in less than half an hour!"
"You’re asking me? How would I know! The rescue signal was sent long ago, but the Cangyan Daoist Palace and the Golden Thunder Sect are all pretending to be deaf!"
Master Yuheng, in a fit of rage, smashed the stone pillar beside him, causing debris to scatter.
"Truly damn it, they came so unexpectedly, we had no time to prepare, let alone predict." Master Yuheng’s voice was full of despair.
The three of them watched the ripples spread across the array surface and looked around at the panicked disciples, feeling immense frustration.
They saw that the strategies they had been covertly placing for so many years were gradually advancing according to their plan.
However, the sudden assault by the Taiqing Sect had shattered all their plans to pieces.
They realized that now, even reinforcements wouldn’t arrive in time; the array’s destruction was just a matter of moments.
At that time, the three of them wouldn’t be able to fend off so many cultivators of the same realm.
Their only path to survival might be Zhou Qing.
This person’s understanding of arrays was exceptional, and he was also the future Junior Sect Leader of the Taiqing Sect.
If they could capture him, even if they couldn’t turn the tide, at least they could delay until reinforcements arrived.
At worst, they could have more time to figure out how to break through or negotiate with the Taiqing Sect for a compromise.
Subsequently, the three exchanged glances, a fierce understanding flashing in their eyes.
"Next, it’s up to you!" Master Lingxu and Dubhe said, looking at Master Yuheng.
After all, only his realm could unexpectedly capture Zhou Qing.
"Understood, but I’ll need your cooperation!" Master Yuheng said.
The two nodded, indicating they would definitely make every effort.
Then, Master Yuheng looked at the elders and disciples who had almost all gathered at the mountain gate and took a deep breath.
The murderous intent around him suddenly retracted, replaced by a solemn grief.
"Fellow disciples!" His voice, infused with spiritual power, resonated like a great bell throughout the entire sect.
