The atmosphere was solemn and solemn, almost dripping with water.
There were only four people at the meeting.
Preparatory leader Chen Rong, and three lord-level elders: Pan Dechang, Zou Wuji, and Yuan Zhiheng.
The faces of the four people were all very ugly.
Pan Dechang said: "Xiao Rong, I have already discussed your proposal with Elder Zou and Elder Yuan. It is too risky! We cannot agree to it."
Chen Rong said anxiously: "Uncle Pan, we have no choice now!"
Zou Wuji waved his hands and said: "Xiao Rong, you are still too young. Young people are easy to be impatient. We three old immortals do not deliberately occupy this position and oppose you."
"Yes, the position of leader of the Shangqing Sect will be yours sooner or later. As old bones as we are, we just hope to take a good look at the sect before you grow up. You said that taking the initiative, there are too many uncertainties!"
The last elder, Yuan Zhiheng, stroked his beard and said.
Chen Rong said: "If we take the initiative and cooperate with Mr. Lu Wang to attack from inside and outside, there is still a chance of survival! Sitting in the city of sleepy sorrow, until Lu Wang is defeated, how long can our Shangqing faction hold on?"
Yuan Zhiheng said: "With the mountain-protecting formation, we can always support it for a while. No matter what happens, it is better than closing the formation and going out to fight to the death with the Black Sky Sect."
Zou Wuji said: "Maybe if we support it for another month, things will turn around."
"Yes, the righteous sects may wake up and rise up against the Krishna Sect."
"And maybe the headmaster and the great elder will come back?"
Yuan Zhiheng and Zou Wuji, the two elders, tried their best to describe the last hope with every word.
Chen Rong was really angry with these stubborn old men and wanted to take out a stick and wake them up one by one.
How long has it been since you still count on other sects of Zhengdao? Still count on the leader to turn the tide?
What's the use of relying on the mountain-protecting formation? In a month at most, the disciples who maintain the formation will collapse.
In Chen Rong's view, if you want to survive in death, you must have the courage to risk your life.
The mountain-protecting formation appears to be a protective barrier, but in fact it is also a shackles that imprison people's hearts.
If the inner disciples of the Shangqing Sect want to rush out to meet "Lu Wang", they will inevitably shut down the formation. But this is something that these conservative elders cannot accept. They would rather wait for others' rescue and charity than
Take the initiative on your own and fight for the survival of the sect!
What's even more detestable is that... there is a shortage of masters from the Shangqing Sect now, so the strength of these three lord-level elders must be borrowed.
Chen Rong looked at Pan Dechang: "Uncle Pan, what do you mean?"
Pan Dechang seemed a little embarrassed. After thinking for a long time, he sighed and said, "Is it better to be cautious?"
Chen Rong said expressionlessly:
"Master Lu Wang has already taken control of the giant barbarian army, and there are five hundred warriors around him. This is the only chance. If you miss it..."
"Uncle Pan."
"Uncle Zou."
"Uncle Yuan."
Chen Rong spoke slowly and looked at the faces of the three elders one by one, "You three, and I... will all be sinners of the sect!"
The three elders were silent.
Their original idea is that if you do more, you will make more mistakes, if you do less, you will make more mistakes, and if you do less, it will be better.
Relying on the mountain-protecting formation, even if the sect is wiped out in the end, it will not be their fault. They can say that they have tried their best.
But now, there is a really rare opportunity in front of us...
If the family is wiped out because of missing this opportunity, the three of them ask themselves, can they still say that they have tried their best and that the disaster of destroying the family is not their fault?
Chen Rong stood up and said: "Three martial uncles, close the mountain protection formation and go out to meet Mr. Lu! I am willing to bear all the responsibilities alone. If the battle is defeated because of my decision... I am willing to dethrone the Shangqing Baolu,
Give up the qualification to inherit the position of head!"
The three elders all widened their eyes.
Chen Rong continued: "If the three uncles still don't agree, I can only call on my fellow disciples who are willing to follow me and go out to fight the enemy to the death. The three uncles will stay in the inner gate, waiting to collect the corpses for us."
Pan Dechang sighed: "Xiao Rong, why are you doing this? Well, I already understand that your determination is indeed firm. You don't need to say such things to ridicule us. Since you are determined to fight to the death, the three of us will be fine."
There is also some strength that can help."
Zou Wuji and Yuan Zhiheng both remained silent.
Chen Rong sighed inwardly. If this decision fails, will there still be a Shangqing faction?
Without the Shangqing Sect, what's the point of her being the leader?
But on the surface, Chen Rong smiled slightly and showed an excited look: "Uncle Pan, Uncle Zou, and Uncle Yuan, don't worry! I am more than 70% sure about this battle. As long as we unite with Mr. Lu Wang, we will definitely win.
Defeat the Black Heaven Sect and take back our mountain gate!"
…
Heitian Sect's deputy camp, where Li Feng's giant barbarian soldiers are stationed.
A banquet.
Protector Qiu Zhenli on the left, Protector She Ji on the right, and seven or eight helmsman-level masters were all present.
"Special Envoy Xin Feng, now is the critical moment to attack the Shangqing faction. You refused to send troops and instead invited us over. Why?" Qiu Zhenli frowned, looking a little impatient.
Li Feng smiled and raised his glass: "Everyone, our rule as leader of the Tang Dynasty is to drink for three rounds before talking about business."
Qiu Zhenli snorted and suddenly slapped the wine glass on the table, and a wine arrow shot into his mouth.
She Ji smiled and said, "I never drink."
Li Feng pointed to the dishes on the table and said with a smile: "You don't have to drink, right? Protector, let's taste the specialty dishes of Jiangnan famous chefs. I spent a lot of effort to 'invite' this chef over."
Snake Girl picked up a chopstick and covered her mouth as if to eat it, but the chopsticks slid into her black sleeve.
She Ji also performed a series of chewing and swallowing movements, which was a wonderful performance.
"Masters, please don't be polite. For the sake of the friendship between our two families, please drink this cup to the full!" Li Feng persuaded him to drink.
After drinking for three rounds, Qiu Zhenli said: "What exactly is going on? Can Special Envoy Xin Feng tell me?"
Li Feng smiled and said: "It's like this. When I went to greet the recruited Jianghu warriors, I also received a letter left by Li Chun... Our leader of the Tang Dynasty will make new moves in the near future and send out the third batch.
Elites, supporting the allies of the Black Heaven Sect in their war. Building a resonance formation requires a lot of efforts from the allies of the Black Heaven Sect."
It costs a lot to transport troops from the territory to the spirit world, and the resonance array is one of them, which requires a lot of rare materials. Moreover, each subsequent batch of territory troops is transferred, and a large amount of spiritual crystals are spent.
"Is there such a thing? Why have I never heard of it?" Qiu Zhenli said with a frown.
She Ji narrowed her eyes and asked, "Mr. Xu Geng should be the one to talk about this kind of thing, right? Why didn't you see him?"
