Chapter 1357 Trust is Mutual
At this time, the chief of the Chiyan Sect pursed his lips, turned his head with an unpleasant expression and looked at Duan Xinghe, then glanced at the disciples behind him, and finally his gaze fell on Xiao Zhengyang.
"Junior Brother Xiao, you decide among these five people. After all, you have dealt with her before, so your decision may be more correct than mine."
“Senior Brother, you…” Xiao Zhengyang sighed heavily.
"Put the overall situation first, don't be too picky."
So, despite the objections from other disciples, Xiao Zhengyang selected five people.
These people were disciples who had participated in the secret realm of the Worry-Free Tree in the past. Before the Worry-Free Tree disappeared, their relationship was pretty good. When Yuanwu Sect and Qingxuan Sect were against each other, they did not fall into their misfortune. Later, they received favors from Qingxuan Sect and had their lives saved.
This time, during the second level, everyone turned back to clean out the disciples of Yuanwu Sect and did not participate in the joint encirclement and suppression of Qingxuan Sect.
These five are the strongest disciples who meet these conditions, including Duan Xinghe.
"Okay, now that the decision has been made, the rest of you should commit suicide." The leader of the Red Flame Sect said, "Let's start with me."
"Brother, don't!"
"I hope you can keep your promise."
After saying this, the chief of the Red Flame Sect raised his weapon and stabbed it into his heart.
Although Qingxuanzong was rumored to be extremely evil because of the Wuyou Tree incident, he was still willing to trust his intuition that she would keep her promise and not betray her like Yuanwuzong, who was completely untrustworthy.
The sword pierced his heart, and the leader of the Red Flame Sect was beyond saving. He turned around and said to his disciples cruelly: "If anyone is unwilling, the others can help him."
He had already set an example, so the others stopped talking and raised their weapons one by one to stab themselves in the vital points.
Outside Dengtian Mountain, the leader of the Chiyan Sect was furious when he saw this scene. He stood up suddenly, and then sat down heavily without saying anything. His hands under his sleeves were clenched into fists, and his nails had already dug into the flesh.
The pain spread from my heart.
And this kind of pain is still unexpressible.
Judging from the ending, at least not all of his Chiyan Sect disciples were eliminated, which was a better situation than before.
But looking at the process, he was in a million times more pain than before!
Although he couldn't hear their conversation, he could guess what they meant. Ye Linglong did it on purpose. She was seeking revenge for their previous actions!
Although he knew they would take revenge, he still felt extremely heartbroken when he saw the sin being committed against his disciples.
Being eliminated by one's own will is much more humiliating than being eliminated by someone else!
Moreover, the person who made this decision was his most spirited disciple, the most proud and strongest chief disciple of the Chiyan Sect. For the sake of the sect's performance, he pointed the weapon at his heart!
Seeing this scene, Sect Master Tianding and Sect Master Yunyang beside him felt very complicated. They didn't know what to say to comfort Sect Master Chiyan, and felt that nothing they said would be appropriate.
At the same time, they also hope that their disciples can quickly break through this predicament, which is better than encountering Ye Linglong making such a choice.
This is a humiliating and painful choice, but one that must be made considering the overall situation.
In Dengtian Mountain, after watching more than 20 disciples of the Chiyan Sect commit suicide, only five disciples of the Chiyan Sect were left in the protective shield, led by her direct disciple Xiao Zhengyang, and including her eldest brother Duan Xinghe.
She fulfilled her promise and removed the physical protective shield.
She stood outside the purple smoke and used her spiritual power to fiercely cut the vines that were entangled around Duan Xinghe's feet.
After cutting the vines, he walked out of the range of the poisonous gas. Only after he came out did he raise his head and look at Ye Linglong.
And it was only at this moment that Ye Linglong turned around and looked at him.
Just a glance, and neither of them said anything.
A hundred years have passed and after experiencing so many things, we are now standing on different positions. It seems that the familiarity and closeness of the past have become an unreachable distance at this moment.
I have a lot to say, but I can't say anything and I don't know how to start.
Ye Linglong turned around, jumped across the yard and left.
Duan Xinghe retracted his gaze and turned to cut the vines under the feet of the remaining four fellow disciples.
Seeing them like this, Xiao Zhengyang sighed: "Why didn't you talk to her just now? You haven't seen her for so many years, why don't you ask how she is? You obviously wanted to ask."
"I can't ask." Duan Xinghe said: "When she was forced to jump into the Nine Nether Eighteen Abysses, she had just broken through the refining void. How could she be fine in these years?"
Xiao Zhengyang sighed again. They were originally friends, friends for life and death, and neither of them betrayed the other, but everything had changed and they couldn't even exchange pleasantries when they met.
"So, do you think it was them who destroyed the Worry-Free Tree?" Duan Xinghe asked Xiao Zhengyang.
“I think, is it important?”
"It's important. Whether you are willing to believe it or not is very important to you."
"No." Xiao Zhengyang answered seriously: "I don't think they did it. They are not that kind of people."
"I don't think so either. With their abilities and talents, if they really wanted to destroy the Worry-Free Tree, they could have come up with many better solutions. There was no need to force themselves into a dead end and suffer for so many years."
"I agree. When the leader ordered us to chase them, I deliberately slowed down. This was my last struggle. Don't tell anyone."
"Well, who hasn't procrastinated? I did that, too."
After hearing these words from his fellow student, Duan Xinghe's face, which had been serious for a long time, suddenly showed a smile.
"So, trust is mutual, that's why she let you out."
They were stunned. That's the case, otherwise the ones who were just released would be the senior brother and his friends.
At this time, they have all been freed, and even the shackles in their hearts have been opened.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now. The most urgent thing is to collect points. Be fully alert and use a hundred times the strength to collect more points, so that the sacrifices of the brothers will be worth it."
After Xiao Zhengyang finished speaking, he commanded the rest of the people to go and kill the demon together.
The number of people in the Red Flame Sect has been reduced from nearly thirty to only five. They can no longer go deep into the enemy's territory to kill the big demon, and can only sweep the central area now.
Fortunately, the five of them are flexible and quick to act. They can easily get out of any trouble. If they seize the time, they can still save a lot.
After Ye Linglong left the courtyard where the disciples of the Red Flame Sect were, he continued to move towards the next point.
She did not miss it. At that time, only one disciple of Yuanwu Sect was left. When the others all left, they had determined the direction they were going.
In other words, they know exactly where the next target is.
Good guy, the one who actually cheated and peeked at the whole map was not caught, but she was caught as the idiot who climbed onto the roof and shouted, right?
The rules of climbing Tianshan Mountain are not reliable enough, so let her enforce justice!
Make good use of your time and finish the work early, because you still have to meet up with your seniors after you’re done.
Thinking of this, Ye Linglong happily ran to the next point to persuade them to fight!
