Chapter 788 The Sect's Struggle Ends (Subscription Request)_1

Gu Linruo's brows furrowed, "Junior Brother Xu, do you mean we should block the exit and slaughter the disciples from the other sects to the last man?"

Xu Sheng nodded affirmatively, "Exactly! Their purpose was to kill us from the beginning; since we've come to this point, we naturally cannot afford to show any mercy!"

Mo Qingyue coldly said, "Besides slaughtering us, the goal of the other three Great Sects is to unite and annihilate the Xuantian Sect!"

Mu Yun's face turned grim, "But even if we know this and inform the Sect Master and the others, with the combat power of the Xuantian Sect, we are not strong enough to withstand them! We could even be wiped out in an instant!"

Diming Sect, Tianliu Sect, Sect Liaoqiong, let alone the Nascent Soul Stage Elders; just the Sect Master of each sect alone is a powerful Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator!

Under such a vast disparity, the chance of victory is almost non-existent!

When Xu Sheng heard Mu Yun's words, which were filled with despair, he chuckled lightly, "Elder Brother Mu, don't talk like that; you never know, this might also be an opportunity for the Xuantian Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Qingyue and Mu Yun looked on blankly, not understanding what he meant by opportunity...

That was a union of the three Great Sects; it would be considered lucky if the Xuantian Sect weren't destroyed within a few shichen!

Only Gu Linruo's beautiful eyes flickered a few times; she knew the true strength of Xu Sheng was that of a Void Refining Stage powerhouse!

Perhaps it really could be an opportunity for the Xuantian Sect...

Mu Yun asked with curiosity rising in his voice, "Junior Brother Xu, don't keep us in suspense, what do you mean by opportunity?"

Although it seemed unlikely, Xu Sheng was not a rash person; there might be a chance of a solution...

Mo Qingyue's beautiful eyes also filled with doubt, "Yes, Junior Brother Xu, do tell, do you have some kind of plan?"

While they were discussing, a piercing sound began to resound throughout the entire Secret Realm...

"Buzzzzzzzz..."

Gu Linruo said gravely, "The Secret Realm's exit has opened!"

"Then let's go!"

After Xu Sheng spoke, his gaze became intense, and he immediately performed the Beast Taming Technique. Under the illumination of a burst of light, a Flame Serpent several dozen meters in size silently appeared...

Mo Qingyue and Mu Yun, looking at the terrifying Flame Serpent before them, exclaimed with widened eyes, "What is this??"

Xu Sheng explained, "I'll tell you both later, let's go up for now!"

Mu Yun and the others did not ask further questions and nodded...

Subsequently, the Flame Serpent gently lowered its body, allowing Xu Sheng and the others to sit on its back...

The next moment, it began to move at an incredibly fast speed...

...

"Those Xuantian Sect disciples must have all been killed off; I searched for a long time and saw none!"

"Of course! But it's strange, we've encountered such a strong scent of blood along the way, yet not a single person in sight! Do you think it's possible...?"

"Don't overthink it! They must have all... wait, look ahead! Those seem to be disciples of the Xuantian Sect!!"

As soon as they spoke, the remaining disciples all turned their eyes towards the exit ahead. When they clearly saw Xu Sheng and the others, clad in Xuantian Sect robes, their pupils abruptly narrowed...

They were all shocked, "How is this possible! Why haven't the people of the Xuantian Sect been slaughtered to oblivion?"

"Could it be that besides us, the other disciples all... It's impossible! How could this be possible! The Xuantian Sect definitely doesn't have such terrifying strength!"

"Everyone, don't panic! Let's pretend we don't know anything and quickly escape. After that, we'll inform the Sect Master and the others!"

After this declaration, they feigned calmness and step by step walked towards the exit...

And at the very front, Mu Yun, whose eyes had been suppressing rage, suddenly erupted as he coldly said, "It's truly delightful to see all of you surviving disciples here!"

Mo Qingyue's Beautiful Eyes turned to Xu Sheng beside her, "Junior Brother Xu, it was thoughtful of you, indeed—this way we won't let anyone slip through."

Xu Sheng and Gu Linruo both swept the people in front of them with extremely calm gazes…

Seeing the eerie look in the eyes of Mu Yun and the others, the disciples opposite them panicked and hastily said, "What... What are you trying to do? This is just a battle for dominance, don't mess around, ah!"

"If our sect knew you dared to do such a thing, Xuantian Sect couldn't bear the wrath!"

"Don't... Don't think you can do as you please just because you've lucked out and won; we won't be scared of you!"

However, what awaited them was a one-sided massacre…

...

The Sect Master of Lieqiong Sect looked at the entrance before him and furrowed his brows, "Why haven't they come out yet? Could something have happened?"

The Sect Master of Tianliu Sect next to him narrowed his eyes, "No need to worry, perhaps they were just delayed by something!"

The Sect Master of the Earth Abyss Sect sneered, "We sent out no less than twenty-one disciples, several of whom are at the Nascent Soul Stage; there's no way they could fail!"

On the other side, Mu Qingge and the Peak Master behind him, also looked towards the entrance with grave expressions…

The former worriedly thought, "Could something have happened?"

A humming noise arose, and the entrance began to ripple with color…

Instantly, the atmosphere in the whole space tensed up, everyone staring fixedly at the entrance, waiting for the people inside to come out…

Following that, Xu Sheng and three others walked out from amidst the ripples…

Upon seeing them, Mu Qingge and the other Peak Masters' expressions eased…

The former inwardly said with a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness! Worthy of being the disciples of Xuantian Sect!"

Muhuan also expressed his surprise, "This is the first time they've come out so quickly!"

After Xu Sheng and the others walked over, Luo Qingyang, with a puzzled face, asked, "Xu Sheng, why are there only the four of you; where are Liu Yun and the others?"

Feeling the gazes of the other sects' Sect Masters on them, Xu Sheng feigned a look of dejection as he answered, "Senior Brother Liu Yun and the others encountered a Flame Serpent! They were…"

Silence fell over Mu Yun and the others beside him…

Mu Qingge showed a kindly smile and said, "Is that so? It's good that you could return!"

The Sect Masters from the other sects, upon witnessing this scene, all curled their lips dismissively, their eyes fixed on the entrance, waiting for their respective sects' disciples…

But in the next moment, the cave in front of them let out another loud boom, ripples reappeared at the entrance, which gradually closed over within a few seconds…

This time, the Sect Masters from the three sects couldn't remain calm any longer, panic rising amongst them. The Sect Master of Tianliu Sect exclaimed with a shocked face, "What?? The Secret Realm has actually closed?!"

The Sect Master of the Earth Abyss Sect gritted his teeth, "Isn't it supposed to close automatically only if there are no survivors left inside?"

The gaze of the Sect Master of Lieqiong Sect turned toward the people of Xuantian Sect and others, as he solemnly asked, "What exactly is the situation, what on earth happened to the disciples of our three sects??"

Mu Qingge's eyes flickered a few times as if he knew what had happened…

He smiled faintly and said to the three Sect Masters in front of him, "Since it's over! Then, esteemed Sect Masters, we of Xuantian Sect shall take our leave first!"

Just as they were about to leave, a cold voice stopped them, "Wait a moment!!"
