Chapter 238 - 238 228 Zen Master to Deal with Wasteland City

Chapter 238: Chapter 228: Zen Master to Deal with Wasteland City Chapter 238: Chapter 228: Zen Master to Deal with Wasteland City A message reached Wasteland City and only then did Wei Sisan learn that Wasteland City wasn’t the only place where things had happened.

The people from the New City Sect had not yet calmed down.

Wei Sisan quickly called everyone together and said, “Let it go, Tianle City is lost, but we have to focus on what’s important. There’s no need for self-blame or anguish.”

Jiang Zhuge was there, and so was Ye Chen.

Zhi Lang Taoist Priest said with a puzzled look, “Who the hell is this Zen Master?”

Wei Sisan replied, “Yes, many people want to figure this out. The people from the Central Plains also want to know. It’s not just us in the Wastelands; there have been incidents in Wuji Domain and South Wasteland as well.”

“Incidents in the Wuji Domain and South Wasteland too?” the Zhi Lang Taoist Priest sounded even more puzzled.

“Yes, it’s not just our Wasteland City where things have happened.”

“What about the Central Plains?”

“Nothing has happened in the Central Plains, but the people of the Immortal and Demon domains are worried. They suspect an attempt to unify all places outside the Central Plains to target the Immortal and Demon domains of the Central Plains,” Wei Sisan speculated.

“Where the hell are these people coming from? Don’t they know?” Zhi Lang Taoist Priest asked.

“They came from the sea, but who exactly they are is something that the inhabitants of the Immortal and Demon domains are also trying to figure out. They are thinking of a solution,” Wei Sisan replied.

“If the Immortal and Demon domains know that their ultimate goal is to attack them and then unify the Central Plains, can they remain indifferent? They should find a way to help us,” Can Mo said.

“The Immortal City Sect wants to intervene, but they can’t. The Wastelands and Wuji Domain have never been within their jurisdiction, so even if they wish to intervene, they can’t. We, of the Wastelands, have to solve our own problems.”

“Aren’t they worried that after taking Wasteland City and other regions, it will be disastrous for them?”

“Of course they don’t want this to happen, but they have no control over it. Hence, we still have to handle our affairs ourselves,” Wei Sisan said.

“Who on earth has such power? A single Zen Master has reduced us in the Wastelands to this state.”

“Everyone, let’s not worry over Tianle City anymore. We have to focus on securing Wasteland City. If the Zen Master wants to unify the Wastelands, he will attack Wasteland City next for sure. Everyone retreated here, which is actually a good thing as it doesn’t seem as chaotic. We can concentrate all our strength and confront them when they come,” Wei Sisan said.

Ye Chen was sitting to one side, eating his meal and listening to their conversation.

He, too, was wondering what was going on. How could so many formidable men suddenly appear from the seaside, and why was the Immortal City Sect indifferent?

“We have ill-intentioned visitors. Everyone must be prepared and not be like how things were in Tianle City,” Wei Sisan said, with an added hint of vigilance.

Kong Sha spoke up, “These people clearly intend to unify the Wastelands and the Wuji Domain, and then take on the Immortal and Demon realms. Hence, they must be aiming to unify the Wasteland in a short period. For us, we have time on our side, I believe we can defeat them.”

At this moment, a disciple spoke up, “We just received news that Gua Zhengnie, who had pledged allegiance to them, has absconded.”

Zhi Lang Taoist Priest paused for a moment on hearing this and said, “This guy, honestly. He assists them in taking Tianle City, drives us out, and then leaves.”

However, Wei Sisan said, “Gua Zhengnie always considers himself a born leader and could never serve under them for long.”

“He even left a group of people in Tianle City and had them set the city on fire. Probably only Gua Zhengnie could pull off such a thing,” Zhi Lang Taoist Priest commented.

“Alright, let’s focus on making our preparations now.”

Losing Tianle City did impact the New City Sect, but this impact wasn’t as great as anticipated. At this point, Wei Sisan could consolidate all his forces back to the Wasteland City to counter the Zen Master and his cohorts.

Wei Sisan asked, “Has there been any movement on the Sky Domain City side?”

Kong Sha shook his head, “There hasn’t been any news from there.”

Wei Sisan was contemplating that in the Wastelands, it’s only Sky Domain Sect and their New City Sect left to confront the Zen Master’s clique.

Kong Sha asked, “Does Sect leader plan on joining forces with them?” Kong Sha was worried about the people from the Sky Domain Sect. He was unsure about them since their last ambush wasn’t investigated thoroughly.

Wei Sisan had no idea whether the Zen Master would attack Wasteland City or Sky Domain City next, or what the people at Sky Domain City were thinking.

“Sect Leader, aren’t you worried about the last ambush? Could Sky Domain Sect have been involved?” Li Mo asked.

Wei Sisan said, “Alright, keep an eye out for any news from the Sky Domain Sect. The Zen Master could either attack Sky Domain City or Wasteland City next.” He can’t help but worry.

If it were possible to collaborate with the Sky Domain Sect, dealing with the newcomer, the Zen Master, might be more advantageous. Of course, he still trusts in his ability to confront the Zen Master. The details of how to deal with him would depend on the situation.

Ye Chen left. With Wei Sisan arranging affairs, there was basically no need for his presence.

The Zen Master had taken Tianle City, which boosted his spirits. Having secured Tianle City, they could now move on to attack Wasteland City without worrying about being sandwiched from both sides. However, Sky Domain City was also on high alert. Their arrival and intention to unify the wastelands were no longer a secret.

Shen Tian approached the Zen Master. They now had two target cities – Sky Domain City and Wasteland City. In Shen Tian’s view, taking Sky Domain City seemed to be slightly easier. He asked, “Zen Master, do we go after Sky Domain City or Wasteland City first?”

The Zen Master went silent for a while.

Shen Li said, “Sky Domain City is fortifying its defenses and has shown no intentions of siding with us.”

The Zen Master sneered coldly and said, “Who would willingly give up their own sect which they have built from scratch? Gua Zhengnie might be incapable, but he understands this. To make them join us willingly, we must show them our strength.”

Shen Tian continued, “Taking down the Sky Domain Sect could be easier than conquering the New City Sect.”

The Zen Master explained, “I don’t think so. Wei Sisan of New City Sect sees himself as the savior of the wastelands. If Sky Domain Sect faces danger, they might help. Indeed, the current New City Sect is stronger than the Sky Domain Sect, making it difficult, but if we attack Wasteland City, Sky Domain Sect wouldn’t necessarily come to their aid.”

Shen Li said, “In that case, it’s better to attack Wasteland City.”

But the Zen Master replied, “It cannot be said that one is easier than the other. Neither of them will be easy. Sky Domain Sect’s growth indicates they have strength. Without strength, they wouldn’t have been able to grow so rapidly. I also know the people of the wastes acknowledge Wasteland City. In their eyes, only the rulers of Wasteland City have the strength to unify the wastelands. Wasteland City is their spiritual pillar. If we can take Wasteland City, it will definitely shake the wastelands.”

“So, we should secure Wasteland City first.”

The Zen Master went on, “I like biting into the toughest bone first. Without a challenge, how can you succeed?”

Shen Li responded with a smile, “Indeed, if we can capture Wasteland City, it will bring about the greatest deterrent. Taking down Sky Domain Sect then wouldn’t be too difficult.”

The Zen Master nodded in agreement and said, “Get ready for me. I want to meet this Wei Sisan and see if he’s as tough as he’s rumored to be.” Rumor had it that the Sect Leader of Sky Domain City wasn’t fond of Wei Sisan. If this were true, Sky Domain City likely wouldn’t help defend Wasteland City.

Yang Jing laughed, saying, “I don’t think they’re capable at all. If they were, we wouldn’t have taken Tianle City in just one night.”

But Shen Tian replied, “We cannot be careless. Our success against Tianle City was entirely due to the assistance of insiders who threw the city into chaos, completely disrupting Jiang Zhuge’s defense. Jiang Zhuge’s compassion for the innocent in the city provided us an opportunity. Their organization and plans are quite rigorous and methodical. It was more than just luck that we took Tianle City.”

Shen Li then asked, “So, should we take Dongle City next?”

The Zen Master shook his head and said, “Taking one city after another is a drain. Even though Dongle City is currently under the control of New City Sect people, it doesn’t hinder our attack on Wasteland City. We don’t necessarily need to take Dongle City, and I don’t want to split our forces to go to Dongle City.” It would suffice to have a place to set up camp.

Shen Tian added, “Exactly. We have to deploy our forces every time we capture a territory, which can dissipate our strength.”

The Zen Master suddenly said, “So, here is the plan. Shen Li, you stay and defend Tianle City. Our hold on it isn’t secure yet. Elder Xi Feng, you are responsible for assisting Shen Li and defending Tianle City. I don’t know what will happen, but I hope Tianle City remains ours.”

“We need to make Tianle City our base. Not long ago, Wei Sisan took Wasteland City back from Gua Zhengnie, starting from Tianle City. I also want to try and see if we can use this base to take Wasteland City.”

Shen Li was startled, “So, you want me to stay here? I prefer the battlefront, thats where I excel, not city defense.”

Laughing, Zen Master said, “With Elder Xi Feng helping you, you will be fine. Ask him anything you need.” The Zen Master had considerable trust in Elder Xi Feng. He might have been Gua Zhengnie’s man once, but he was reliable and familiar with the wastelands, making him a crucial asset. “Discuss any issues between yourselves,” the Zen Master concluded.

Elder Xi Feng said, “I will do my best.”

The Zen Master said, “I’m not entirely certain we can capture Wasteland City, but we need to have a foothold. Tianle City will be that place for us. So, don’t underestimate this place, you never know when it might come in handy.”

Shen Li nodded.

The Zen Master continued, “Aside from Shen Li and Elder Xi Feng staying in Tianle City, everyone else will come with me to Wasteland City.”

Only then did Shen Li agree.

The Zen Master was making preparations because he knew Wasteland City would be a tough nut to crack. He said, “Shen Tian, get ready, bring the siege equipment. Get everything you might need for the assault.”

Shen Tian nodded.

The Zen Master didn’t immediately go to Wasteland City. Meanwhile, Wei Sisan was hard at work preparing for their arrival.
