Chapter 2573
Qi Bitian shook her head slightly and remained silent.
Outside the Primordial Pagoda.
At this moment, the Ancient Sword Sect was covered in sword energy and sword intent, or it should be said that the Ancient Sword Sect was being protected by them.
The powerful sword intent and sword energy caused the Soul Sect and the other powers to dare not attack.
As for the Soul Master, he was supposed to destroy the sword intent and sword energy for them, but for some reason, heâd suddenly turned around and left.
Since the Soul Master had left, the Soul Sectâs experts didnât attack. However, they didnât leave either, and they surrounded the Ancient Sword Sect with the other powers.
How could they just leave at this point in the collision between them and the Ancient Sword Sect?
If a strong tiger is allowed to survive, it would become a huge problem in the future!
But because of the sword intent and sword energy from the statue, the entire Ancient Sword Sect had obtained momentary peace.
The Abyss Lion had unwillingly left the Primal True Dragon once the white-haired old man summoned it, and while the dragon feared the Abyss Lion, he wasnât terrified of the Abyss Lion. Conversely, the Abyss Lionâs arrogance and greed infuriated the Primal True Dragon, so the dragon was unhappy when the Abyss Lion left.
As for Nether Maiden and the woman with the Space Domain, their battle in the sky was still going on!
An outcome still hadnât been decided!
But both of them were severely injured!
Yang Ye stood where the statue had been before the main hall, and there were corpses before him!
These corpses all belonged to the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect!
Of course, these were only some of them, and some of them hadnât even left behind a corpse!
Yang Ye suddenly turned around and walked over. There was an old man lying there, and his lower body was gone!
The old man was none other than the Grand Elder!
One of the people whoâd helped him and made him the sect master.
At this moment, even the Grand Elderâs soul was incomplete!
Actually, his soul had almost been devoured by an expert from the Soul Sect, but Elder Xue had rescued him at the critical moment. But it was still a little too late. Most of his soul had been devoured, and it was impossible to restore now.
Gu Nie was by the Grand Elderâs side. Gu Nie wasnât dead, but he was severely injured!
It could be said that no one throughout the sect was unharmed.
A quick look at .com will leave you more fulfilled.
The Grand Elder opened his eyes weakly upon noticing Yang Yeâs arrival. He gazed at Yang Ye, âYou were right.â
Yang Ye remained silent.
While they had left the sect, the Grand Elder and the others had returned. They had returned at the sectâs most difficult moment.
The Grand Elder stared at Yang Ye, âY-You will protect the sect, right?â
Yang Ye still remained silent. It could be said that him becoming the sect master was a trap that Elder Xue and the Grand Elder had set!
Even then, he didnât complain. Firstly, it was his own choice, and everyone had their own choices in life. Each choice led to a different outcome, and one had to take responsibility for oneâs own choices.
Moreover, heâd benefited tremendously from the sect too!
The Grand Elder didnât say anything else because his soul had vanished.
He was dead!
After countless years of cultivating, heâd died for the sake of the sect!
Yang Ye sighed with emotion in his heart.
Gu Nie carried the Grand Elderâs partial body away, but he suddenly turned around and gazed at Yang Ye, âCan my Master be placed within the Ancestral Hall?â
Yang Ye nodded slightly.
Gu Nie said, âThank you!â And then he left.
Yang Ye gazed at the others from the sect. At least 30 or even 40% of the sectâs disciples had perished in the battle just now!
Many familiar faces were gone!
War was always a cruel thing!
Extremely cruel!
Yang Ye glanced at the disciples. He saw Mo Ya, Lu Yunxian, and Xie Yiren among them. All three of them were quite weak, so they didnât fight against the stronger enemies attacking the sect. Even then, their bodies were covered in injuries.
Especially Xue Yiren, his entire left arm was almost in pieces!
The elite disciples had suffered the worst!
Only 6 of the 11 elite disciples remained!
Moreover, all of them werenât whole!
Yang Ye glanced at them, âAre you afraid?â
They shook their heads!
Fear?
No one in the Ancient Sword Sect was afraid!
They were a group of fearless sword cultivators!
Yang Ye nodded, âThatâs good. Now, we donât have much time. If you want to do anything or leave your last words, then do it now.â
He pointed at the sky, âWhen the sword energy and sword intent there vanishes, itâll be the moment we fight them to the death!â
Countless sword cultivators bowed to Yang Ye and left.
Hope?
Yang Ye never told them that it existed because it didnât!
Yang Ye was direct. He told them they would die, and they could leave at any time. But if they stayed, they should be prepared to die!
A few stayed behind!
They were Elder Xueâs group!
Yang Ye glanced at them and nodded slightly, âWelcome back!â
Elder Xue glanced at Yang Ye with quite a complicated expression in her eyes.
Yang Ye didnât say anything and just left for Nether Maiden and the othersâ bamboo house.
All of them were in the house.
They were strong, so their strength was more than enough to deal with those assassins! Actually, it was all thanks to them. Otherwise, the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect wouldnât have been able to resist those assassins!
Especially the Lord Realm assassins!
Those assassins were targeting the elite and inner court disciples of the sect, and they only launched surprise attacks while the Ancient Sword Sectâs disciples were locked in battle with the experts from the other powers!
Under such circumstances, it could be said that every attack they launched would take a life!
Fortunately, Nether Maiden and the others had taken action!
With Boundary Maiden and her powerful barriers at their side, they were able to counter the assassins to a certain extent!
They gazed at Yang Ye in silence when they noticed his arrival.
Yang Ye walked over to them and asked, âAre you alright?â
Nether Maiden shook her head, âWhat about you?â
Yang Ye shook his head, âI only took some small injuries. But Iâm sure you know itâll only take me a while to recover from that.â
She glanced at him, âWhat do we do now?â
Yang Ye fell silent for a short while and smiled, âBringing all of you hereâŠâ
The pig-riding woman suddenly asked, âYou want us to leave?â
Yang Ye laughed bitterly, âI gathered all of you here because I thought the Ancient Sword Sect had a chance, but now it seems like I was terribly mistaken. Itâs a hopeless situation! Youâre not part of the sectâŠâ
Yang Ye suddenly stopped because the pig-riding woman had already swung her saber at him!
Yang Ye felt really helpless!
Nether Maiden said, âWe came because we think of you as a friend.â
Yang Ye nodded, âI know!â
The pig-riding woman glared at him with displeasure, âDo you think we are balls that you can just kick around as you please?!â
Yang Ye laughed bitterly, âThe Ancient Sword Sect is really in a hopeless situation, so are you planning on staying and dying with me? If thatâs the case, Iâll die with everlasting regret.â
Actually, he was extremely regretful, he regretted bringing them here!
Boundary Maiden spoke abruptly, âWill you go with us?â
Go with them!
The pig-riding woman nodded, âLetâs leave together! This place had no chance!â
Yang Ye shook his head, âIâm sure youâve noticed that I have a group of sword cultivators relying on me and putting their trust in me. If I leave now, what would they do? They wouldnât just be fighting the attack from the other powers at that time, they would be waiting to be slaughtered!â
The pig-riding woman spoke solemnly, âStaying doesnât change a thing, doesnât it?â
Yang Ye smiled, âIâve made my decision! But Iâm serious when I say that Iâm most worried and afraid for all of you. If anything happens to the four of you, Second Sister and Eldest Sister will tear me into bits. So, leave now. Iâm begging you, alright?â
They exchanged glances and remained silent!
Yang Ye felt helpless against them and wanted to say more when the pig-riding woman suddenly pushed open the door of the bamboo house, âYou should focus on formulating a plan to keep us alive!â
She walked out and closed the door behind her.
Yang Ye gazed at the door with a helpless and speechless expression on his face. Of course, his heart felt very warm.
Later on in the bamboo house.
The pig-riding woman had returned, and she placed her saber on the table and said, âThat fellow seems like he wonât ever leave. Should we knock him out? I donât think our joint forces has a 100% chance of succeeding at knocking him out in an instant!â
Boundary maiden stroked the foxâs fur gently and said, âHeâs very strong! We canât knock him out!â
The pig-riding woman rolled her eyes, âObviously! I was trying to ask you what we should do now!â
Nether Maiden suddenly said, âFight!â
Fight!
All of them fell silent in the bamboo house.
âŠ
Yang Ye returned to his abode, and then he entered the Primordial Pagoda.
Yang Ye took a look at all the demons, and practically all of them were fine. Unless they fought someone at two realms of cultivation above them, their thick and tough skin would keep them safe!
After all, they were Five World Realm demons, and their bodies werenât any weaker to the bodies of Lord Realm experts.
Besides that, there was another pleasant surprise, the dragon had started to sleep again!
Since he had started to sleep, it represented that the dragon may be about to advance!
This was pretty good news for Yang Ye!
Yang Ye went to the bamboo house and found Qi Bitian.
They started playing Gomoku.
Yang Ye put down a piece and said, âIf I die, you can protect this pagoda, right?â
She nodded slightly, âItâll be fine while Iâm in here!â
Yang Ye hesitated for a moment and asked, âThe Soul Sectâs Master is extremely strong. If he takes my corpse and finds the pagodaâŠâ
Qi Bitian spoke casually, âDonât worry, if you die, this pagoda will be mine. If he dares to try and take itâŠâ
She raised a hand and said, âIâll slap him to death! I lose if it takes two slaps!â
Yang Ye was stunned speechless.
