Chapter 20 Ambush
Chapter 20: Surrendering to compromise
The leader of the Haotian Sect leaned against the bed weakly, his cloudy eyes were lifeless, and he was taking in less air and outgoing more. It seemed that his time was running out.
No matter what, as long as he is still alive, the Haotian Sect still has a backbone, and the situation will not completely collapse.
"If there is any bad news, please tell me." Sect Master Tang said weakly.
In his early years, his father left the sect and disappeared without a trace. He lost his wife in middle age and lost his son in his later years. He witnessed the sect go from glory to the edge of destruction.
He has experienced so much pain that it is a miracle that he is still alive.
In the last days of his life, he still cared about the sect and was worthy of the title of sect leader.
It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people, and there is no way to teach children, so it will eventually end in tragedy.
"Sect Master, please take a good rest first. If you have any issues, we can deal with them after you recover." The great elder said with concern.
Sect Master Tang is currently the only titled Douluo in the Haotian Sect. It is precisely because of his existence that other forces do not dare to go too far.
Once he cannot hold on, the Haotian Sect will usher in its real doom.
The situation in Haotian Sect is irreversible, and all the elders can do is delay.
"I don't have much time.
While I'm still alive, tell me if you have anything to do." Sect Master Tang said after sighing.
The situation in Haotian Sect was more serious than imagined, and he could only take one step at a time.
"The Force Clan has been reluctant to go to the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect.
Master Jade has issued an ultimatum to us. If we refuse to fulfill our promise, the consequences will be serious.
Also, the Wuhun Palace has not been taking any action recently, and I’m worried about those guys..." the great elder said with a worried look on his face.
The matter with the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect can still be solved by gritting one's teeth and enduring it.
The most terrifying thing is that the Wuhun Palace is standing still.
Fear comes from the unknown, and until now the senior officials of Haotian Sect have not been able to see clearly the true intentions of Wuhun Palace.
Now that the Haotian Sect is weak, Wuhun Palace is undoubtedly capable of destroying the Haotian Sect, but I don't know why they haven't taken action yet.
"Maybe they want to torture me to death." Sect Master Tang said with a bitter smile.
He, the super Douluo of the Haotian Sect, is still a bit intimidating.
Even if his lifespan is about to expire, the all-out attack from the bombing ring may still replace one or two Titled Douluo elders in the Spirit Hall.
Wuhun Palace should want to get rid of the Haotian Sect with minimal casualties.
"Sect Master, what should we do?"
The second elder looked sad, the current situation was too unfavorable for Haotian Sect.
"My father once defeated the Great Priest of Wuhun Palace on a certain mountain range.
The head priest of Wuhun Hall once swore that no one under him would be allowed to enter that mountain range.
If nothing can be done, just close the sect and move the clan members there to take refuge." Sect Leader Tang said after thinking for a moment.
Thirty-six strategies are the best strategy. Since we can't defeat Wuhun Palace now, we can only retreat and huddle up to preserve our strength, and wait until the original climate is restored before making plans.
"Martial Soul Hall acts cunningly, and hiding in the mountains may not guarantee safety." The great elder shook his head and said.
The people of Wuhun Hall will naturally abide by the promises made by the great priest.
But the oath is dead and the person is alive. If you really want to eradicate it, is it not easy to find loopholes?
As long as you announce your withdrawal from the Wuhun Palace first, you don't have to worry about the oath. It will be no problem to rejoin the Wuhun Palace after you have dealt with all the people in the Haotian Sect.
"The last three sects are connected by the same spirit. Now our Haotian sect is in danger of extinction. The other two sects should not ignore death.
If the Haotian Sect is destroyed, they will be the next unlucky ones.
Wuhun Palace is not so easy to deal with.
How about we go ask them for help?" the third elder suggested.
Wuhundian has the ambition to unify the continent, and other forces will understand it.
After the Haotian Sect fell, the pressure would fall directly on them.
"Third brother, it's useless.
They are all profit-seeking bastards.
If he really wanted to help the Haotian Sect, he would not press forward like this." The seventh elder snorted coldly and said in disappointment.
Among the forces that are now oppressing the Haotian Sect are their former allies, the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect.
The seventh elder doesn't think highly of this group of people at all.
"Now that the Haotian Sect's reputation has deteriorated, the two major sects don't want to have much interaction with us.
Even if they are willing to help, it will be difficult to block the Wuhun Palace's offensive." The great elder agreed.
The Haotian Sect has such a bad reputation now, and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the other two empires cannot provide much help on the surface.
Relying on the little help from behind the scenes will undoubtedly be a drop in the bucket, and it will be of no use at all.
"Is there any girl under the age of ten who is talented and beautiful in the Haotian Sect?"
Sect Leader Tang suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question.
"Yes, yes, but I don't know what the sect wants her for?" the great elder asked in confusion.
The Great Elder's great-granddaughter is nine years old this year, which still meets the requirements of the Tang Sect Master. He can vaguely guess the Sect Master's intention, but he is not completely sure yet.
"As for the Wuhun Palace, the person fully responsible for handling this incident is the Second Enshrined Golden Crocodile Douluo in the Enshrined Palace.
I heard that he had a grandson whom he loved very much, about ten years old.
Starting from this aspect should have some effect." There are some things that Sect Leader Tang is not comfortable saying directly.
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you.
If we want to save the Haotian Sect from its crisis situation, we must start from the root cause.
The Wuhun Palace's ill will towards the Haotian Sect is the obstacle to the Haotian Sect's survival.
Instead of thinking about how to ask for foreign aid, it is better to think about how to prevent Wuhun Palace from launching an attack.
"Sect Master, what's going on between us and Wuhun Palace..." The seventh elder began to sigh before he finished his sentence.
The relationship between the two families is on the same level. If you send the girl over at this time, wouldn't you push the person into the fire?
"The reason why the Haotian Sect asked for explanation in Wuhun Palace was all because of that bastard Tang Hao.
Except for that bastard, there is actually no enmity between Wuhun Palace and Haotian Sect."
This "bad idea" was not something that Sect Master Tang came up with in a moment of confusion.
Sect Master Tang has also carefully thought about the current situation and the relationships between the various families.
Regardless of Tang Hao, Wuhun Palace and Haotian Sect did not go to war and did not cause large-scale casualties.
The two sides seemed to be very uncooperative, but in fact they just had different positions and were not mixed with other bad emotions.
In this way, there is still room for maneuver in the relationship between the two parties.
“The Wuhun Palace is very strong, but it doesn’t have the strength to unify the continent.
If the Haotian Sect is destroyed rashly, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of all forces.
When all parties unite to deal with Wuhun Palace, it will be difficult for Wuhun Palace to gain any benefits.
Coupled with the fact that my father's whereabouts and life and death are unknown, Wuhun Palace is still worried.
I am afraid that it is due to various factors that the Wuhun Palace is hesitant and has not taken any action."
After clarifying the relationship between all parties, the sect leader suddenly became enlightened.
If Wuhun Palace really wanted to destroy the Haotian Sect, it would be impossible for them to not even take any action until now.
Even if Wuhun Palace wants to drag down the leader of Haotian Sect to death, it should send people to find out the truth.
