Chapter 720: Chapter 719 Demoness’s Reminder
"I need a senior figure credible enough to convince the Poison Sect, Wang Family, and Qingtian Sect to unite and form a powerful force to defend the passageway at Kunlun Mountain."
Qin Yanyang expressed his thoughts.
At this moment, he could no longer worry about the risk of this secret leaking.
Opportunities come and go quickly; it’s either do or die, a bold move to eradicate all internal threats at once.
As long as the ambitious forces within the Hidden Sect World were eradicated, Qin Yanyang was absolutely confident he could integrate the forces of the Divine Continent and achieve unification once again.
In response to Qin Yanyang’s request, Yang Fei dared not immediately reply, but Wang Chunyang, who had been silent until then, nodded after a moment of thought, "It’s possible. Please wait a moment."
After saying this, he turned and left, joining the fight directly.
With Ouyang He blocking the passage, Helian Zhan alone was invincible, overwhelming the Innate Realm experts of the Zhuge and Duanmu Families and forcing them to retreat. In just that brief period, the two families had lost another two dead and four wounded.
The moment Wang Chunyang drew his sword and entered the fray, a Duanmu Family expert was ambushed from behind and perished on the spot. The defensive formation against Helian Zhan was instantly disrupted, and the morale of those attacked from behind plummeted, frightening them into fleeing in all directions.
High above, seeing Wang Chunyang make his move, Ouyang He let out a loud laugh and swooped down, "Hahaha, how can the Poison Sect be absent when wiping out these two families?"
With a casual wave of his hand, he released a colorless and odorless poison. The masters below cried out in alarm. Although they had been on guard against this Poison Sect ancestor, they were still terrified when he made his move.
This man, known as the old venomous creature, had unparalleled poison skills, and even the experts of the Divine Travel Realm would tremble before him, let alone these Innate Realm fighters?
In an instant, faced with the assault of three top-tier powers from the Hidden Sect World, the Innate Realm masters of the Zhuge and Duanmu families were routed. Due to some valuing their lives, they swiftly fled the battlefield, heading for the foot of the mountain, and their formation disintegrated instantly. In just a few breaths, those who failed to escape were slain to the last man.
The outcome of the battle was unsurprising and without suspense.
Yang Fei glanced over the battlefield and took a sharp breath.
Ten corpses.
Only three had escaped.
Apart from Zhuge Mingtai, who Helian Zhan had killed first, the killing of the other nine took less than two minutes.
The key was that it was initially just Helian Zhan fighting alone.
If the three of them had acted together, the battle would have ended even faster.
Those were thirteen Innate Realm masters.
And among them were several at the Late-stage Innate Realm Peak.
Together, the power of these three was simply overwhelming.
As Yang Fei was still in shock, Helian Zhan and the others approached.
In such a short time, Wang Chunyang had already conveyed the conversation between Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang to the other two.
Ouyang He came over and said, "Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang will stay here with you. I will take the trouble to make a trip to Kunlun Mountain, return to the Hidden Sect World from there, and cooperate with your wife to block the Hidden Sect forces inside."
Yang Fei was overjoyed but still somewhat concerned, he asked, "Senior, are you confident you can unite the forces of the Wang Family and Qingtian Sect?"
Wang Chunyang pulled out a Jade Token from his chest and handed it to Ouyang He, "Brother Ouyang, take this Jade Token to the Wang Family, and they will surely recognize my decision."
Helian Zhan also took out a Jade Pendant, smiling as he said, "My senior brothers seeing this will also cooperate with Brother Ouyang."
Ouyang He accepted the tokens from the two, saying, "With you two stationed here, our combined strength will certainly be weakened. If those five families join forces, our chances of victory here are still not great."
Upon hearing this, Wang Chunyang furrowed his brows and nodded silently.
Although he was confident in himself, apart from him, the difference in strength between the top experts of the Wang Family and other top forces wasn’t significant.
The same went for Qingtian Sect.
Ironically, the Poison Sect, relying on its Poison Skills, could act with impunity. Poison Sect disciples were formidable against disciples of other forces of the same realm.
However, facing the union of five opposing forces, the numerical advantage was too great, almost double.
Adding to this, with him and Helian Zhan outside, once full-scale war breaks out, the advantage would be with the enemy.
"Brother Helian, what do you think?" Wang Chunyang looked to Helian Zhan.
Helian Zhan said, "No worries, what we need to do now is race against time and not let the three families be defeated one by one. As long as we form a united front, our chances are much greater."
Wang Chunyang and Ouyang He were puzzled and felt that Helian Zhan was very confident when he said this.
It was as if he had another card up his sleeve that he hadn’t played yet, one that could be decisive at a critical moment.
Yang Fei was also looking at Helian Zhan with surprise on his face.
Within the Hidden Sect Eight Great Forces, the disparity in strength between any two was not huge, so in a three-versus-five situation, they were obviously at a disadvantage. How could Helian Zhan then say their chances were better?
Where did this guy’s confidence come from?
Wang Chunyang seemed to misunderstand Helian Zhan’s meaning and said with a frown, "Although you and I are not weak in combat, we must not underestimate those people. If Zhuge Cang were at his peak, with his understanding of Rune Tao and formations, he would be a troublesome opponent, not to mention that person from the Ji Family."
Helian Zhan gave a mysterious smile and said, "Brother Wang, don’t worry. As long as our three families are not defeated one by one and stand united, trust me, the advantage lies with us."
Wang Chunyang and Ouyang He stared at Helian Zhan, but the latter just shook his head with a smile, indicating he had no intention of revealing the reasons right away.
After a moment’s thought, Ouyang He was the first to speak, "Since you have such confidence, brother, I’ll trust your judgment."
Wang Chunyang was a decisive person as well and nodded, "That’s right, the most crucial thing now is to send back the message, and at the same time, to send Brother Ouyang to unite the three forces."
Helian Zhan said to Zhao Wuji, "Take Brother Ouyang to Kunlun, and be quick about it."
"Yes, Master!" Zhao Wuji immediately complied and looked at Ouyang He, "Elder, shall we leave now?"
Ouyang He nodded and said, "Let’s go, the faster the better."
With the survival of the three families at stake, he too was worried and wished he could instantly return to the Hidden Sect.
Ouyang He and Zhao Wuji left together.
Yang Fei spoke into the phone, "Honey, what do we do next, how can I cooperate with you? If you need people on your side, I can arrange for manpower to help you."
Seizing the opportunity, Yang Fei decided to get along well with Qin Yanyang, first making her aware of his importance and then gradually dispelling her inner rejection and aversion to him.
"Just hold that passageway," Qin Yanyang said, and then she hung up the call.
Yang Fei, listening to the dial tone in the receiver, was speechless.
Is she that heartless?
"Heh..."
A cold laugh came from the side as Helian Rong stared at Yang Fei and said, "You’re feeling disappointed, aren’t you?"
Yang Fei, feeling annoyed, couldn’t help but give her a dismissive glance, "That’s none of your business."
"Someone claims to have given his true heart to two women, yet seems to forget that one of them is now in dire straits. If internal strife breaks out within the Hidden Sect, that woman surnamed Tong probably won’t survive, right? But she deserves it, knowing the man was married and still clinging to him. If she dies in the Hidden Sect, maybe it might even soothe your wife’s anger, forgiving you from then on," Helian Rong chuckled mischievously, teasingly said.
Yang Fei’s mouth twitched fiercely.
If it weren’t for Helian Zhan being nearby, he would have slapped her.
This demoness wasn’t like this before; why has she become so annoying now?
"If you’re silent, no one will think you’re mute," Yang Fei said harshly.
Helian Rong giggled, "I’m just kindly reminding you. If you truly care about Tong Yunshu, you should find a way to save her. Of course, if you don’t, maybe this is a good chance to let her die in the Hidden Sect. Without her, maybe Qin Yanyang might forgive you someday."
Yang Fei wished he could tear her mouth apart, but he had to admit that she did remind him of something important.
Indeed, he had to think of a way to save Tong Yunshu.
He involuntarily looked up at the transport channel.
