Zhu Minglang glanced at the direction of the mountain gate, where it seemed as if nearly half the Summoning Demon Sect had mobilized. Not only could one see their figures moving around the base of the mountain, but also the formidable demonic beasts, taller than the trees, were charging toward Sword Manor.
“Since there are only a hundred members, why not abandon the mountain and leave quickly?” Ye Youying said.
“Impossible, how could we possibly flee when facing the battle? This is our mountain gate, we would rather die in battle here than let these disciples of the Demon Sect succeed so easily!” Ming Xiu said with great determination.
The other members of the White Robe Sword Sect felt the same, preferring death over escape!
Zhu Minglang was at his wit’s end, his face as bitter as an unripe melon.
What now?
If they were going to attack the mountain, would it kill them to be a day late? After all, he had been planning to pack up and leave.
Moreover, as a Demon Sect, after having been jointly pursued by the righteous sects, shouldn’t they quietly hide in a secluded place, bide their time, and wait for an opportunity to strike again… But without further ado, they’re attacking someone’s mountain gate, especially when the entire White Robe Sword Sect happens to be away!
“The two of you are not from our sect, there is no need for you to join us in death. Please leave quickly through the cave dwelling behind the mountain, and also swiftly pass the message to the Sect Leader and our masters. The Summoning Demon Sect is treacherous and despicable, utterly detestable. No matter what, members of our White Robe Sword Sect will never submit to them!” Ming Xiu said urgently.Dressed in white, with a bright and clear universe, true to the character of the White Robe Sword Sect. If it were those guys from the Yaoshan Sword Sect, especially with a crooked Elder Sword Sovereign in existence, they might have already fled the mountain, muttering something about ‘As long as the green mountains last, there will be wood to burn.’
“Sigh, I’ve eaten your food for several days, and also enjoyed your Spirit Stone Cave. To leave just like this would indeed make me feel a bit guilty. Ming Xiu, have the disciples of the Sword Sect retreat to this Long Valley Mountain Terrace. I’ll hold off the Sword Manor for you!” Zhu Minglang sighed and said.
“Mr. Zhu, don’t make such jokes. The Summoning Demon Sect has meticulously planned this, deliberately luring away all the experts of Sword Manor, and then attacking our mountain gate in retaliation. They want to flatten our Sword Manor in one fell swoop. We are prepared for death, but there’s absolutely no need for Mr. Zhu and Miss Ye to do the same,” Ming Xiu hastily dissuaded him.
“Enough talk, you can’t decide for me. Just do as I say, and maybe fewer disciples will die,” Zhu Minglang said.
…
In fact, even if Zhu Minglang hadn’t called for a retreat, these people wouldn’t have been able to hold out anyway. Soon, some of the few remaining Sword Masters of the White Robe Sword Sect were beaten back to Long Valley, reaching Long Valley Lake, which was very close to Sword Manor.
Zhu Minglang stood on the stone platform where he practiced Flying Sword, looking down at the Summoning Demon Sect and their followers.
This time, the Summoning Demon Sect had mobilized what seemed to be a thousand people. Although their overall strength wasn’t as formidable as that Summoning Demon Master that used the inn as bait, one could tell that they were determined to raze the White Robe Sword Sect!
They were full of murderous intent, with a touch of vengeful hatred. Clearly, in this clash between good and evil, the Summoning Demon Sect had long harbored the intention to exterminate the overbearing White Robe Sword Sect!
“Are you insane?? With so many experts from the Summoning Demon Sect, how could you possibly stop them!” Ye Youying grabbed Zhu Minglang’s sleeve and exclaimed.
“If you could convince them to abandon the mountain, I certainly wouldn’t need to be standing here,” Zhu Minglang said to Ye Youying.
“They’re too stubborn, no amount of persuading works,” Ye Youying was also very anxious at this moment.
Those from the Summoning Demon Sect are truly insane, directly assaulting the White Robe Sword Manor. They’ve veered so far off the path to demonhood that there’s no intention of returning to the righteous path anymore!
“Why don’t you try persuading the people from the demon sect below? If they’re willing to withdraw, perhaps all the forces will have a change of heart regarding your Summoning Demon Sect,” Zhu Minglang suggested.
Ye Youying bit her lip, knowing she had no choice but to try. The last thing she wanted was a scene like this, which would utterly condemn the summoning demon masters to the status of heretics!
…
Ye Youying summoned a big Black Peng, and mounting its back, flew towards the vast army of Demonic Beasts belonging to the Summoning Demon Sect.
More and more Demonic Beasts occupied Long Valley and made their way along the valley, slaughtering their way towards the Sword Manor. From Zhu Minglang’s perspective, he could see that the most numerous were the lake monsters known as Demon Guards with three heads and six arms. They were clad in Fish Scale Bone Armor, wielding rusty Ancient Weapons, their eyes emitting a fierce light!
“Miss Ye is a summoning demon master???” Ming Xiu, who had witnessed Ye Youying’s summoning, was immediately covered in a look of horror.
“Yes, a just and kind summoning demon master,” Zhu Minglang responded.
Ming Xiu obviously didn’t share Zhu Minglang’s open-mindedness. In her eyes, summoning demon masters were now akin to demonic followers, and a trace of a different hue had appeared on her face.
Zhu Minglang didn’t take much notice. At this point, it was easy to tell whether someone intended harm or sought to quell the slaughter.
…
Ye Youying, riding the big Black Peng, landed amidst the crowd of the Summoning Demon Sect.
At a glance, many skilled individuals of the Summoning Demon Sect were present, and among them were three figures of Demon Lord caliber, led by none other than Demon Lord Lujiang!
“Why are you here?” Demon Lord Lujiang was surprised and questioned Ye Youying.
“Uncle, by doing this, aren’t we ensuring that our Summoning Demon Sect will have no place to stand? If what happened with the Guangshan Purple Sect Clan could be seen as an accident, then wouldn’t today’s assault on the White Robe Sword Sect be a declaration to the whole world that we intend to be enemies with all forces?” Ye Youying argued.
“When you speak such words, have you thought about how your mother, who lies beneath the Yellow Springs, would view you? As her only daughter, if you don’t seek vengeance for her and slaughter these guardians of the way until none remain, how can you possibly comfort the souls of our deceased brothers and sisters?” Demon Lord Lujiang sneered.
“She is bringing honor to our Summoning Demon Sect.”
“Naïve! Without power, we are nothing but scapegoats for the downfall of the Guangshan Purple Sect Clan. We, the summoning demon masters, are undergoing a transformation, a metamorphosis. The entire world trembles in fear because no authority wants to see their position usurped, no Imperial Dynasty wants to be overthrown by a new power. We summoning demon masters don’t need to ‘rectify’ anything. Once we annihilate these self-righteous Sect Clans, make them fear us, make them beg us for peace in hushed tones, and make them acknowledge the Summoning Demon Sect as the foremost among the Four Great Sect Clans, that will be the best form of rectification!” Demon Lord Lujiang’s words exuded immense ambition.
No one could stop them!
The outcome of compromising with these established righteous sects would be the same as that of Ye Youying’s mother – a Sword Stab through the heart, blood staining the green grass!
With the Immortal Ghost, there was no need to bow to any power!
