Chapter 306: Chapter 294: Saving the Heavenly City Sect (2)
The Zen Master had scoped out the surroundings, the encircling forces were shrinking incessantly at this ti.
Jue Ming said, “The crowd behind us was fully prepared, like a pack of ravenous wolves. Though they are fewer in number than the Heavenly City Sect, they are much more ruthless.”
Elder Xi Feng said, “They are venting their anger, avenging for the people of the New City Sect.”
“It’s difficult to break through from the back, it seems we only can go forward.” ng Xiuluo said.
The Zen Master nodded, saying, “Alright, let’s carve out a path from the Heavenly City Sect’s side.”
As he spoke, Shen Tian had already struck Ye Chen with three consecutive palms. Unable to defend himself, Ye Chen was thrown backward.
The Zen Master caught him. A bit embarrassed, Shen Tian murmured, “I didn’t expect his martial arts to have improved so quickly. He’s no longer the young man he was a month ago.”
To seek revenge, Ye Chen had been spending all his ti studying the martial arts contained in the Jade Ring. Even though it had only been about ten days, the intensity of his training was equivalent to a month, and he had already mastered the second layer of practical application.
The Zen Master said, “Shen Li, you should help Elder Xi Feng, carve out an opening from where the disciples of the Heavenly City Sect are.”
Shen Tian nodded.
After all, the people of the Heavenly City Sect were unprepared and were only cooperating to break out together with Ye Chen and his comrades.
They had been fighting fiercely for nearly four hours, and all around them, flas blazed fiercely.
At this mont, Jiang Zhuge’s team could lay claim to as much as they could bite off.
The Zen Master turned around to face Ye Chen. Not to be outdone, Ye Chen faced the Zen Master. At this ti, without needing the power of the Jade Ring, he stood his ground against the Zen Master. The Zen Master’s martial arts skills were genuinely superior to Shen Li’s, making him not easy to handle.
At this point, the Zen Master and Ye Chen fought side by side.
Shen Tian’s martial arts were better than Fang Ziren’s,
Many disciples of the Heavenly City Sect had not experienced a major battle in many years. Even eighteen years ago, they did not participate in the campaign against the Dragon Slaying Clan. Though they had nurous disciples now, they lacked experience. The Zen Master’s people, on the other hand, had been through the mill, their experience far surpassing that of the Heavenly City Sect’s disciples.
Amid their desperate fighting, Ye Chen’s group, though small in number, was trying to hold their ground from two directions.
By late night, they had broken out of the encirclent.
But they paid a heavy price for it, killing over six hundred mbers of the Dragon Slaying Clan.
Li Mo was still very dissatisfied, saying, “Damn it. If the people from the Heavenly City Sect could have held that opening, we might have had a chance to annihilate them.”
Jiang Zhuge said, “Ah, enough with the complaints.”
Fang Ziren led Gu Xueyun over to Jiang Zhuge. Very gratefully, Fang Ziren said, “Thank you so much. Without you, we would have been trapped in the siege. It would have been difficult for us to break out.”
They walked toward Ye Chen.
Fang Ziren asked again, “May I ask which sect you belong to? I haven’t seen you in Immortal Demon Domain.”
Jiang Zhuge said, “We’re from the New City Sect.”
“The New City Sect of the Wastelands? I thought you went to the Extre North Land?” Gu Xueyun asked.
But Li Mo said, “If we hadn’t said that, would we have been able to escape from the Dragon Clan?”
“But you must get our permission to enter the Central Plains.” Gu Xueyun said.
At this ti, Fang Ziren was filled with gratitude. If they hadn’t shown up in ti, it would have been difficult to ensure everyone’s safety.
Fang Ziren said, “It’s okay, you’re welco. The Sect Leader of the Immortal City Sect, Su Hong, has already said that he wants you to co as soon as possible. We might be able to form an alliance then.”
Ye Chen was at the other side helping the injured.
Fang Ziren asked, “Who among you is the Sect Leader?”
Li Mo pointed at Ye Chen in the back, saying, “The young one, he’s our Sect Leader.”
“His martial arts are pretty impressive.” Gu Xueyun said.
“Of course.” Did that even need to be said?!
Fang Ziren curiously asked again, “By the way, how did you find out we were surrounded?”
Li Mo said, “Our Sect Leader guessed it.”
Gu Xueyun said incredulously, “He guessed it? You weren’t following them here?”
“We entered the Central Plains earlier than they did.”
“But how did he guess?”
“Considering your good relationship with Immortal City and Demon Palace, in the Immortal Demon Domain, you are the only ones who can be equals with Immortal City and Demon Palace. However, since your strength doesn’t match Immortal City’s and Demon Palace’s, you are easier to deal with. Choosing to take action against you made perfect sense.”
Fang Ziren was slightly surprised, saying, “Yes, your analysis is correct, but we didn’t think of it ourselves.”
“It was not
who analyzed it, it was our Sect Leader who did.”
Fang Ziren gratefully said, “Really, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, we probably couldn’t have gotten out.”
Jiang Zhuge replied, “Aye, don’t say that.”
“Really, the Heavenly City Sect will keep your kindness in mind. If there is a chance in the future, we will definitely repay you.”
However, Li Mo said, “It’s a pity that you didn’t guard that one exit, otherwise we could have annihilated them all. We missed the chance to wipe them out.”
“Yes, to be honest, our Heavenly City Sect has not faced a major battle for many years. Most of our mbers are new disciples who lack experience in this area.”
“It’s obvious.”
Fang Ziren spoke again, “We have also heard about the incident in Wasteland City, you should co to terms with it.”
Li Mo retorted, “Speaking of the Wasteland City incident, it is all your fault. Your inability to keep an eye on the Dragon Slaying Clan led to such a disaster. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have fallen into the Dragon Slaying Clan’s ambush.”
Jiang Zhuge stopped Li Mo, shouting, “Li Mo!””
“Did I say sothing wrong?”
Fang Ziren replied, “No, you’re right. We in the Immortal Demon Domain are indeed responsible for this matter. But the incident has already happened, we also didn’t want it to occur. It’s best to look at it in a more open-minded way.”
Jiang Zhuge said, “My brother is rather straightforward in his speech, try not to take it to heart.”
Fang Ziren addressed them again, “Since you have arrived in the Central Plains, you must want to avenge your fallen comrades. But if you rely solely on yourselves, I think it will be quite difficult. How about this, join forces with our Immortal Demon Domain, you can co with us to Immortal City. In Immortal City, we can discuss our strategy against the Dragon Slaying Clan with Sect Leader Su Hong and leaders of other sects.”
Jiang Zhuge thought this was a good idea, and imdiately called Ye Chen over.
Ye Chen t Fang Ziren.
Fang Ziren was amazed, “I didn’t expect your Sect Leader to be so young.”
Jiang Zhuge said, “Sect Leader Fang suggests that we go to Immortal City with them and discuss our plans against the Dragon Slaying Clan.”
Fang Ziren hurriedly added: “I think the Mutant Winged Dragon will pacify the Wasteland soon and not long after, will enter into Central Plains.”
“But we have yet to get the permission from Sect Leader Su Hong.” Ye Chen responded.
Fang Ziren countered, “I will send a pigeon ssage to Sect Leader Su Hong imdiately to clarify the situation. I believe that Sect Leader Su Hong will agree. You should co with us. Since you are already in the Central Plains, and do not know where to go next, why not join us at the Immortal Demon Convention. At that ti, we can discuss how to deal with the Dragon Slaying Clan together.”
Ye Chen glanced at Jiang Zhuge.
Jiang Zhuge stated, “This appears to be a good proposal, especially since we don’t know where the Zen Master and the others have run off to.”
Fang Ziren continued, “Once you’re inside, the people of the Immortal Demon Domain won’t know it’s you and might mistake you for Dragon Slaying Clan mbers. Furthermore, we Immortal Demon Domain have been in the Central Plains for many years and have access to a wider range of information compared to you. If we join forces to confront the Dragon Slaying Clan, we are more likely to succeed and more effective at avenging your fallen comrades.”
Ye Chen was silent for a while before nodding and saying, “Alright then.”
“That’s excellent, you’ve fought with the mbers of the Dragon Slaying Clan and know their thods. When the ti cos, you can inform the people of the Immortal Demon Domain about it. Together, we can certainly defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan.”
Gu Xueyun comnted, “It seems we will have to rest here for the night and leave tomorrow morning.”
“The mbers of the Dragon Slaying Clan won’t co again, will they?” a disciple asked.
“Impossible. They’ve lost too many n; they don’t have enough people left.” Gu Xueyun replied.
Ye Chen still agreed with Jiang Zhuge’s words. They should enter Immortal City for now as they would need to interact with them sooner or later. This would give them a chance to understand their standpoint. After all, with the manpower of the New City Sect, they indeed were no match for the Mutant Winged Dragon. They would need to join forces with the Immortal Demon Domain.
Jiang Zhuge ca over. Ye Chen was resting on one side. It was now midnight.
Ye Chen asked, “How are the injured being cared for?”
“Don’t worry, they will get the best care.” Jiang Zhuge asked, “By the way, Ye Chen, didn’t you used to stay in Immortal City?”
This suddenly left Ye Chen deep in thought. It seed he should return to find Su Hong. However, he still felt a bit uncomfortable. He really didn’t want to go back, yet as the Sect Leader of New City Sect, if he didn’t take action now, it would imply that they looked down on the Immortal Demon Domain, and did not take it seriously. So, he had to make a trip to Immortal City.
“Ye Chen, what’s the matter? Is there sothing troubling you?”
Ye Chen managed a small smile, saying, “No.”
“If you are unwilling to go, I can go in your place.”
“No, the Immortal Demon Domain can accuse us of being insincere. Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Ye Chen responded. He knew this ti, the leaders of various sects, unless otherwise hindered, would all attend this Immortal Demon Convention.
“Alright.” Jiang Zhuge said, “We can learn about the situation in the Immortal Demon Domain when we’re there, which can help us plan.”
Ye Chen instructed, “Tell Can Mo and the others to be careful.”
“Yes, don’t worry, they will be more cautious.”
