Chapter 38
In the battle just now, not only did Ye Xuan step forward bravely, but he also demonstrated his skills. At this moment, he had become everyone’s backbone. In these people’s hearts, his prestige was no less than Han Yue’s.
“Elder Ye, what should we do next? If the people of the Blood Soul Sect see that their elders and disciples have not returned, they will definitely send more people over. At that time, a fierce battle will be inevitable.”
“At most, we’ll go into seclusion first. All the disciples will not be allowed to go out, and they will lie low for the time being. This way, we might be able to avoid this disaster.”
“Don’t we have a lot of Crystal Ice Chalcedony and night-luminescent pearls? If there’s no other way, we will use some to seek help from outside and ask for the protection of those big sects.”
“If it still doesn’t work, why don’t we send some gifts to the Blood Soul Sect and negotiate with them?”
“Have you gone crazy? Negotiating with them is like sending a sheep into a tiger’s mouth, no different from suicide.”
All the disciples offered their suggestions. Everyone could see that the Blood Soul Sect had wild ambitions. If they let these people leave and let the tiger return to the mountain, it would definitely cause endless trouble.
If they didn’t let go, they were bound to become enemies with the Blood Soul Sect. When the Blood Soul Sect comes out in full force, the great mountain protection array might not be able to support them at all. They were no match for them either.
Even though they had just won the battle, the disciples’ expressions did not look good.
“The Blood Soul Sect has a bad reputation,” The Ninth Elder said worriedly. “Even if we shut ourselves in, we can’t hide forever. This isn’t a good idea at all.”
“Besides, they’re not easy to deal with. Even if we look for help outside, who would be willing to take such a big risk to offend them? I’m afraid it’s not realistic.”
A few clear-headed Blood Soul Sect disciples happened to hear this.
“Now you’re afraid? I’m afraid you don’t realize how big of a mistake you’ve made! When our sect master finds out about this, he will definitely use the power of the entire sect to trample the Tai Qing Sect! At that time, all of you will be finished.”
He laughed arrogantly, without the slightest awareness of being a prisoner.
“If you know what’s good for you, you better let us go quickly. That way, we can still leave your corpses intact. Otherwise, we’ll definitely make you die without a burial place. Even your souls won’t be able to rest in peace.”
The people of the Blood Soul Sect were arrogant. Even at this point, they could not see clearly and thought that what had just happened was an accident.
It was just that they had underestimated the power of the Tai Qing Sect’s great mountain protection array, and they had underestimated the enemy, which allowed Ye Xuan to take advantage of the loophole.
However, he didn’t know that the word accident did not exist in Ye Xuan’s vocabulary.
The foot that fell from the sky ruthlessly stepped on his face, causing him to eat a mouthful of mud.
At the same time, it was accompanied by a cold male voice. “Noisy.”
The disciple raised his head and was about to curse out loud, but he met a pair of deep eyes. A cold chill hit him in the face, and he subconsciously shivered, unable to say anything.
The people of the Tai Qing Sect watched helplessly. The person who had been talking nonsense and chattering non-stop was instantly stepped on by Ye Xuan. His action was simply too satisfying!
One word to describe it was “cool”!
It had never been Ye Xuan’s style to swallow his anger when others were fighting at his door.
If people didn’t offend him, he wouldn’t offend them.
He asked curiously, “Why do we need to hide, try to escape, seek help from outside but not retaliate?”
In the face of Ye Xuan’s questioning, the group of disciples and elders suddenly became silent. Looking at the calm Ye Xuan, they actually felt inexplicably guilty and ashamed.
This bold idea made them feel suffocated for a moment.
In the end, it was the Seventh Elder who stuttered, “Because we can’t beat them...”
Ye Xuan was even more surprised. “You’ve never fought before, so how do you know you can’t win?”
The people of the Tai Qing Sect were suddenly speechless. It actually sounded quite reasonable, and they could not refute it.
As expected of Ye Xuan, he didn’t play his cards in the normal way. When ordinary people faced a powerful enemy attack, they would try their best to avoid the battle, but Ye Xuan was different. He wanted to fight back.
However, the Blood Soul Sect has been established for a long time compared to Tai Qing Sect. Against such a well-established sect with a deep heritage, coupled with the fact that their disciples were all extremely vicious and evil, there was a huge difference in strength. There was no chance of winning at all.
“Do you understand now? Now that the sect master and the extremely powerful elders are not here, we have no chance of winning. Even if they were here, the chance of winning is less than 50%.”
After listening to the elders’ analysis, Ye Xuan nodded. “You’re right.”
The other elders thought that he had taken their words to heart, and their faces revealed a gratified expression.
Who knew what was going to happen in the next second?
“That’s why we’ll only know after we fight. Besides, didn’t we win the battle just now? That battle is the best explanation.”
After saying that, Ye Xuan used the tip of his foot to lift the Blood Soul Sect disciple, who was like a dead pig.
The other elders were dumbfounded. There was no way to compare the two!
It turned out that Ye Xuan hadn’t given up on the idea of attacking the Blood Soul Sect despite them talking so much.
There were a few disciples who were full of vigor, and they were different from these cautious elders.
“I support Elder Ye’s idea. Why do we have to swallow our anger when they attack us? We should fight back! We’ll let others know that we’re not to be trifled with!”
As soon as these words were spoken, many disciples actually agreed with them.
Ye Xuan alone was already a headache, and now these disciples were also blindly making a fuss.
At this moment, the elders were feeling extremely helpless. They hoped that Han Yue would return quickly and end this chaotic situation. Otherwise, if this continued, it would be out of control.
