Chapter 1145: Chapter 34: The Divine Sword Must Not Be Lost_3
The sixth ti to reload from a save, both of them lost the will to discuss, rely sitting silently on the ground, dazed.
Five consecutive failures were due to various reasons, but at the root of it all, it was still because of the disparity in power.
A hawk catching a rabbit, its feathers co with capture. For the rabbit to kick the hawk, it needs to employ all ans, yet may not survive. Sotis, reversing a losing trend is like a mantis trying to block a chariot, beyond human capability.
“…If.” i Yingxue finally spoke, “If the Shushan Shangqing Sect is dood not to be preserved, what should we do?”
As soon as these words were uttered, the heavens seed to change color. What was originally a clear sky with the blazing sun, suddenly clouds gathered and winds rose, the sky dimd, as if the deities were angry.
The confidence in the Sun True Dullness Sword began to waver!
“It’s impossible for it not to be preserved.” Yan Yu imdiately and clearly refuted this notion, “If no other solution can be found, there is actually a trump card strategy left.”
“What strategy?” i Yingxue asked curiously.
The slight cold wind blowing across the mountaintop suddenly stopped. Between heaven and earth, all was silent, without a trace of noise.
“Borrow a sword.” Yan Yu said one word at a ti, “The Sun True Dullness Sword is the key to overturning the disparity in power.”
“But you’ve already borrowed it.” i Yingxue reminded him, “Chen Yanwei is the Sun Sword Master, if he doesn’t nod in agreent, the Sun True Dullness Sword won’t serve you.”
“Then persuade him to lend it.” Yan Yu said decisively, “It must be that my tone last ti was too arrogant, not respectful enough. This ti, this task is entrusted to you, you go explain to him.”
“?” i Yingxue asked in astonishnt. She’s not skilled in using rhetoric to convince others.
“Yes.” Yan Yu said, “You appeal to his emotions and reason.”
“I’ll try.” i Yingxue nodded with a troubled expression.
The two followed the original path to the Ancestor Hall, i Yingxue directly proposed to borrow the sword from Chen Yanwei.
“Absurd!” Chen Yanwei indeed flicked his sleeve, angrily scolding, “The Divine Sword chooses its master, how can it be lent easily?”
“Disciple truly cannot co up with another solution.” i Yingxue said with her head down, “The overall power disparity between the two sides is really too large. If we actively fight, we’d surely be surrounded and exterminated; if we seek assistance from outside, it’s also difficult to break through successfully; the safest may be to defend the sect to the death, but if the enemy besieges for long, they’re sure to use overwhelming numbers, at that ti, even with the Township Formation, it would be extrely difficult to defend.”
She spoke with heartfelt sincerity and provided comprehensive argunts—all personally verified with human lives.
Yet Chen Yanwei did not respond, rely shook his head:
“Even so, the Divine Sword cannot be lent to you. Otherwise, if the battlefield is lost, you cannot bear the responsibility.”
“Then have the Sect Leader fight personally.” Yan Yu smoothly added, “You are the Sun Sword Master, with the power of the Divine Sword, breaking through the Demon Cult’s blockade should be easy. Then wherever you go, we go. The sect remains as long as people remain, accumulating power for the future, retaking Shushan later is not too late.”
Chen Yanwei showed a look of hesitation. It’s true he’s the Sun Sword Master, but his power level is only at the Golden Core stage, if restrained by multiple Nascent Soul cultivators, not directly challenging him, rely focusing on depleting the Divine Sword’s origin… he does not have the confidence that just by borrowing the Sun True Dullness Sword, he’d certainly succeed in escaping.
The Divine Sword must absolutely not be lost, so he avoided any form of risk, everything must be governed by stability. Even extrely speaking, even if the entire Shushan Shangqing Sect is annihilated, the possibility of the Sun True Dullness Sword falling into enemy hands must never occur.
