Chapter 1409 - 1409 1395 The Second Fool
Chapter 1409: Chapter 1395: The Second Fool Chapter 1409: Chapter 1395: The Second Fool Xiong Shuobo remained silent, understanding Da Wu’s meaning.
Da Wu said, “This is our last chance. Once we’re truly surrounded, the window of opportunity will be completely shut. Then, our lives will be in the hands of the people from the Thirty-Six Islands. If they fail to arrive in time, we’ll have no choice but death.”
One of Xiong Shuobo’s assistants spoke up after listening, “We can’t just leave our fate in someone else’s hands. How can we stand by and accompany Su Zhanze in death?”
Da Wu said, “Exactly, we don’t need to stay and die with Su Zhanze. We must find a way to leave first. Su Zhanze will just help us by drawing the Dragon Slaying Clan’s attention, creating an opportunity for us.”
Someone with a bit of conscience said, “I think Su Zhanze will definitely not agree to this. If we all did this, there wouldn’t be many of them left. I reckon Wan Shajiang and his people will also flee. Su Zhanze will let us go!”
Da Wu laughed and said, “What does he count for? After Lou Xuancheng’s death, the biggest one now is the vice Alliance Leader. He is nothing and still has to listen to us.”
The assistant said, “Right, theoretically, our Sect Leader should have taken over as the main Alliance Leader after Lou Xuancheng’s death. So they should listen to us.”
“Exactly. Surviving is what’s important now. We can’t leave our fate to the people of the Thirty-Six Islands. What if they’re intercepted by the Dragon Slaying Clan just like Mutant Winged Dragon broke into Immortal City? If we wait for the people from the Thirty-Six Islands and they don’t make it on time, won’t we have only one path left, death, just like the Immortal City Sect?”
Listening to this, the assistant became frightened and kept saying, “Yes, that’s right. We can’t accompany Su Zhanze in death. We must find a way to live now.”
Xiong Shuobo was hesitant. He believed Su Zhanze would definitely not agree, but what Da Wu said was not wrong. After Lou Xuancheng’s death, he was the most powerful one, so there was no need to listen to that guy, Su Zhanze. If there was a window to flee, why not take the opportunity instead of staying here to face certain death?
The conscientious subordinate said, “We’re already short of hands. If we leave and Wan Shajiang also seeks to save his own skin, I reckon they won’t last long and will likely be wiped out.”
“Hah, what does that have to do with us? We’ve already waited as they asked for three days. Three days have passed, but the people from the Thirty-Six Islands haven’t shown up. We can’t wait any longer; we must find our own way,” the assistant said coldly.
Da Wu said, “We really don’t have much time left. If we don’t leave now, it will be too late.”
The assistant grew anxious, saying, “Yes, now is not the time for sentimentality. Let’s find a way to survive first.”
Finally swayed, Xiong Shuobo said, “Alright, I’m going to find Su Zhanze now.” Then he added, “Da Wu, come with me.” On the way, they ran into Wan Shajiang.
Su Zhanze was in a state of urgency.
Chen Yu, worried, said, “It’s been three days already. Why haven’t the people from the Thirty-Six Islands arrived? Could it be that they won’t make it? Should we still trust them?”
Su Zhanze looked over and said, “Then do you have any better suggestions? We can only wait for them now.”
“No, I’m just worried.”
“Worry about nothing. You can only trust that they will come. Unite everyone and find a way to hold on. We must hold on, and we must firmly believe that we can hold on. The people from the Thirty-Six Islands will definitely come,” Su Zhanze believed the people from the Thirty-Six Islands wouldn’t abandon him because he had the Dragon Slayer Sword. They would need his help to deal with Longhun in the future. With the Dragon Slayer Sword and his martial arts prowess, no one except Longhun could match him. Therefore, the Thirty-Six Islands would definitely find a way to save him.
There was also the fact that the Dragon Slaying Clan was closely watching him, and he had no other way out. Trying to escape on his own was next to impossible. If escaping alone had been feasible, he would have done it already. Longhun seemed to be more interested in him than anyone else, clearly wanting him dead.
For the moment, his only way out was to unite these people. Only then might he be able to hold out for a couple more days, increasing the likelihood of being rescued. He was clear about this.
Chen Yu nodded and said, “Also, Longhun might know that Ye Chen is still alive. That’s why he is so desperate to capture us, intending to kill the Sect Leader.”
Su Zhanze said, “And there’s the Dragon Slayer Sword in my hands.”
“Exactly. If it weren’t for the Moon Beast within him, how could he have been a match for the Sect Leader?”
“The Thirty-Six Islands will definitely come to save us. You must believe that. If I die and the Dragon Slayer Sword falls into Longhun’s hands, that kid won’t stand a chance against Longhun. So he has to find a way to rescue us, because only I can help him defeat Longhun. Now, we must unite these people and stabilize morale. Then we can hold on for a few more days, and our hope will be greater. Understand?”
Chen Yu said, “Yes. But I’ve heard that some are worried that the people from the Thirty-Six Islands won’t make it and want to escape on their own.”
Su Zhanze looked at him intently and said, “Who?”
“Wan Shajiang is considering it. I’m afraid they won’t listen to us.”
“Wan Shajiang!”
“This guy should know that Longhun’s actual targets are us, the Sect Leader, and the Dragon Slayer Sword in the Sect Leader’s hands. He thinks that if he can shake us off, he’ll be able to find a chance to escape by using us to attract Longhun.”
“Damn it, if he dares, I’ll be the first to blast him to death.” How could Su Zhanze allow such a thing to happen when they are already so short on manpower? If they lose even more people, how would they hold up? It would lead directly to collapse.
As they were speaking, Xiong Shuobo, along with Da Wu, Wan Shajiang, and a few junior Sect Leaders, came walking over.
The two men stopped talking.
Su Zhanze pondered why these guys were coming over. Was there something up?
From a distance, Xiong Shuobo politely said, “Sect Leader Su, it looks like we need to have a serious discussion.”
Su Zhanze felt something wasn’t right, yet he was also very courteous, “A discussion? Is something the matter?”
“You see, it’s been three days, and there’s no sign of anyone from the Thirty-Six Islands. Shouldn’t we consider other options? We can’t put all our lives in the hands of the people from the Thirty-Six Islands. What if something unexpected happens to them, like being blocked by the Dragon Slaying Clan? Then wouldn’t we be left with only a dead end?”
“Does the vice Alliance Leader have any good suggestions to help us escape this predicament?” Despite his dislike for Xiong Shuobo, Su Zhanze was willing to lower his head for the sake of unity.
“I think we should let a group of people leave first while we’re not completely surrounded yet.”
Su Zhanze asked in confusion, “What?”
“I believe we should figure out a way to let a group of people leave first. We can’t keep waiting here; it’s too dangerous. If we get surrounded, it would be too terrible.”
“Then who leaves first?”
“It’s not a question of who goes first, but that we must do this.”
“Then who stays behind? What about those who stay? We don’t have many people left; from over three thousand, we’re now down to just over fifteen hundred. If a group of people leaves, how many will be left? We’re already at our wits’ end. Can those who remain hold off Longhun?” Su Zhanze roughly guessed the reason this guy came over.
Xiong Shuobo said, “We allow a part of the group to leave first, then once they are out, we can figure out how to rescue those who are surrounded.”
This guy really thinks he’s talking to a fool—believing that those who leave will come back to rescue them, how could that be possible? Trusting the words of someone who fears death more than anything is definitely a sign of a waterlogged brain.
“Think about it, if we keep going like this and the people from the Thirty-Six Islands can’t get here, won’t we all be stuck? If a portion leaves first, then from the outside, we can find a way to save those trapped inside.”
“Then I guess, the ones left behind would surely be from the Immortal City Sect, and you’ll be the first to leave, right?”
Xiong Shuobo said, “It’s a necessity. Now Longhun’s attention is on you all, especially you. They don’t want to let you go.”
“Right, no mistake there, so I should stay, and you leave first, right?” Su Zhanze’s face didn’t show a pleasant expression.
Xiong Shuobo explained, “If Longhun was after me, I would definitely stay behind to tie them up, creating a chance for others. But now, they’re after you.”
“Huh, that does make some sense.”
“When the time comes, I can take the Dragon Slayer Sword out with me. We can’t let it fall into Longhun’s hands, or else there will be no chance of turning things around in the Immortal and Demon realm. We need to envision the worst-case scenario.”
Su Zhanze was even more astonished and said, “You even want to help me take the Dragon Slayer Sword out, huh.” This fool really thinks his brain is waterlogged if he believes he can be treated like an idiot.
“Hey, I’m not after the Dragon Slayer Sword in your hand. I’m thinking of the big picture. You’ll distract them here, and I’ll take the Dragon Slayer Sword out first, then work out a way to rescue you all.”
Chen Yu immediately got anxious upon hearing this and shouted, “No way, absolutely not. If a part of us leaves, those left behind will surely break down immediately. Even if they don’t, they won’t be able to withstand Longhun’s assault. If we all stay, we could hold out for a few more days, but if a group leaves, we won’t be able to hold on at all.”
Da Wu immediately spoke up, “What nonsense are you spouting, kid? You think we’ll just run for our lives and not care about those left behind?”
“Really? You’re going to come back? That would truly be a miracle.”
“Kid, don’t be disrespectful. How dare you doubt our integrity?”
“Ha, you abandoned the Heavenly City Sect; everyone knows that. It’s not the first time.”
