"Therefore, we should make plans in advance, prepare to collect these medicinal herbs for a breakout, and take as many as we can out..."

Fang Lian spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on the spiritual fields where the medicinal herbs were being nurtured, his eyes filled with helplessness.

The gains from both cases lie entirely here.

To avoid diminishing the efficacy of these rare spiritual items, and considering that they belonged to the group and were obtained through secret methods, almost all of them were nurtured in the spiritual fields of the settlement to preserve their medicinal properties.

His gaze was filled with regret and helplessness, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

In this situation, even someone with his fighting prowess could hardly see any hope.

After all, this is the Ghost Spirit Sect!!

They are not just any ordinary forces.

Even though it was just a contest between disciples, the two sides were not on the same level in terms of foundation, which shows the gap between them.

It is estimated that there are more than just one or two top-tier combatants like Han Chenhua.

Not to mention, the base here is sparsely populated, and the two sides are clearly not on the same level in terms of both quality and quantity.

Now that we've reached a point where we have no other choice, we can only hold onto a sliver of hope.

But I estimate the chances are slim.

Ultimately, the secret realm gains of the Cloud Soaring Sect and the Profound Wind Sect will likely all be in vain.

Once the formation breaks, they will be like lambs to the slaughter when facing the Ghost Spirit Sect!

They will inevitably face a heavy encirclement; how could they escape so easily?

This can be seen from the elite disciples who were previously sent out and were skilled in escape techniques.

One by one, the life tablets shattered, without exception!

Fang Lian concealed the helplessness and despair in his eyes, his expression gradually turning cold. Before Liu Yuan and the others could react or respond, he spoke calmly and indifferently:

"Next, we need to assemble all the disciples, arrange manpower to directly confront the Ghost Spirit Sect, and cover the retreat of the disciples carrying the spiritual medicines..."

These words revealed a hint of cruelty...

Clearly, it's about sacrificing most of the disciples here to secure some rare spiritual items...

Upon seeing this, Liu Yuan, Wang Xiangyang, and the others wanted to say something, but hesitated to speak.

They were shocked by the decision, even somewhat absurd.

But for a moment, I fell silent...

Because they can understand this...

Given the current situation, they understand that this seems to be the only option.

This solution is indeed the optimal one.

Regardless of whether disciples are sacrificed to cover the retreat, the great formation will eventually break down, making it difficult to stop the Ghost Spirit Sect's slaughter. It's better to take a gamble.

After careful consideration, it's hard not to agree with Fang Lian's arrangement and words.

When their formation collapsed, they suffered the same fate as the Ghost Spirit Sect, being slaughtered.

It's better to try your best.

Perhaps they can even leave some gains for both of them!

Fang Lian's decision at this moment was not foolish, but indeed the only option.

Fang Lian was previously a figurehead who relied on the power of the Han family and was like Han Chenhua's 'follower'.

But the fact that he was able to cultivate to such a level, standing out among the many geniuses of the Cloud Vein, with combat power close to the top ten, makes him a true genius of the Cloud Vein, and he is certainly not a fool.

Therefore, Fang Lian was not only sent to oversee the garrison to suppress Lin Xiuyuan, but also because his methods were quite effective.

This is the real ability of the other side to be stationed at their base; otherwise, why would they make such a frivolous move against their headquarters in order to suppress Lin Xiuyuan?

Under these circumstances, Fang Lian's suggestion, after careful consideration, was the best solution that everyone could see.

However, just as the group was discussing the specifics...

A faint voice drifted over...

"Fellow disciples, the formation hasn't even been destroyed yet... Is it inappropriate to discuss what to do next and what to do with sacrifices?"

Everyone turned to look and saw Lin Xiuyuan walking towards them with a calm expression.
