Vol 5 Chapter 23 – Life And Death (2/2)

A green leaf appeared out of nowhere

The green leaf extended to the size of multiple meters, and Muse and Ziqi stepped atop the leaf Around theons continued to swiht Trigraon Formation

“Let’s go”

Swoosh!+

The green leaf began to fly in a strange, zig-zagging , then retreating, then retreating, then advancing…the movements were completely bizarre But in truth, this was caused by the disruptions to their sense of direction within the forh they were constantly changing directions, in truth, they weretowards the outside this entire time

Whoosh…

Standing atop the leaf, Muse and Ziqi suddenly saw the desolate mountain forests outside

“We’re out”

“We’re out We made it out” Ziqi and Muse both had looks of surprise and joy on their faces They had been trapped within the bewildering for their enemies complete control over what to do That was indeed quite torturous Now that they had escaped, they naturally felt incomparably jubilant

“Ji clan!” Ziqi gritted his teeth

Muse’s face was sinister as well “Three of my fellow disciples have died reat enmity?”

“Ji clan!” Dong Ziqi’s voice echoed for hundreds of kilometers “Just wait for your clan to be annihilated!”

Swoosh!+

A green leaf instantly slashed through the skies, quickly disappearing into the horizon

And as it did, six figures walked out fro formation It was Ninefire and the other five Ninefire turned to look towards the distant, desolate ures fro voice, “Riverbank clan, Kou clan, Blackfire Sect…” As soon as he spoke, one figure after another flew over at high speed

“Forgive us for being unable to assist”

“Brother Ninefire, it wasn’t appropriate for us to intervene”

One mental voice after another was sent over

And then, those figuresAll of the Zifu Disciples of the various powers in the S Mountain region had been drawn here by those earlier eleh they weren’t able to see the battle between the Ji clan and Snowdragon Mountain, they were able to guess what had happened In particular, upon hearing Dong Ziqi’s final, angry words, they could tell what those words had implied

“Alas” Watching as those figures left, Ninefire shook his head “This elemental ore mine has major implications It will definitely draw the attention of even on Mountain No wonder the Blackfire Sect, the Riverbank clan, and the Kou clan weren’t willing to interfere”

In the S Mountain region, the Ji clan, the Blackfire Sect, the Riverbank clan, and the Kou clan were allied with each other, and they jointly resisted Snowdragon Mountain and the Ironwood clan

But what they jointly resisted was the S Mountain branch of Snowdragon Mountain! But this eleon Mountain Sect would come to attack S Mountain, and when that happened, for them to annihilate the Blackfire Sect, Riverbank clan, and Kou clan would be simplicity itself Of course they didn’t dare interfere No ht be, they still wouldn’t dare to intervene

“Patriarch, what should we do now?” Truekeep spoke out

Ning and the others turned to look at their Patriarch

Ninefire said slowly, “This tion Mountain has suffered severe losses Three of their Zifu Disciples are dead They will definitely invite their coion to have them hurry over here Given the allure of this eleroup of Zifu Disciples ill attack S Mountain”

Ning and the others all nodded

“They will definitely invite those nearest S Mountain Given the speed of Zifu Disciples, they’ll probably arrive in just a day or two” Ninefire said “We have two options”

“The first option”

“We can hide” Ninefire said “We can on Mountain are unable to find it We only need to hide for a few days, and wait for the Angel arrives to sign a transfer agreement with us This is a fairly safe route…but it will thrust the countless clanser”

“The Zifu Disciples will be here soon, within just a day or two In just a short day or two, the hundreds of thousands of tribes to our Ji clan won’t be able to roup of Zifu Disciples of Snowdragon Mountain find that they are unable to locate us, to give vent to their rage, they will massacre our clansmen, or perhaps seize them and sell them off as slaves This is normal”

The faces of Ning and the others all changed

Hundreds of thousands of their compatriots!

“The second option” Ninefire said “We publicly state that ill be in a certain location, and that ill set up a foron Mountain can come and kill us there, if they are able to”

“Snowdragon Mountain is a major sect Sects like them care deeply about their reputation If we publicly set up this formation, once their Zifu Disciples come, they will definitely attack the formation full force in an attehter a group of mortals If they did so, once the word spread, this would be a great stain on Snowdragon Mountain’s reputation But if we hide, resulting in the unable to find the ‘culprits’, they will definitely massacre the people of the Ji clan, so as to deon Mountain is not to be challenged

Ning and the others all nodded

Right

Major sects cared about their reputation!

If they hid, then those Zifu Disciples would use the excuse of wanting to demonstrate how the supreo massacre the members of the Ji clan, so as to warn others

But if the Ji clan’s experts stood out and openly proclaimed they would be at a certain location within a forainst those ordinary mortals

“Everyone, speak What choice should we make?” Ninefire looked at his clansmen
