Although they are the leaders, their manpower has been reduced. Attacking the Huoyun Sect's headquarters is different from attacking other islands. The Huoyun Sect has been established for hundreds of years, and the headquarters has long been managed as solid as a rock. A family of immortal cultivators cannot take it down at all, and they cannot attack it if the people are not united. In the final analysis, it is greed that is at work.
They wanted to use other immortal cultivation families as cannon fodder. Other immortal cultivation families were not stupid. Everyone wanted to get more money and do less work. They understood the principle of working together, but they came from different forces. Take the Han family and the Chen family as examples. They were both affiliated forces of Tinghai Pavilion, but they had personal grudges. Since the Chen family was the leader, the Han family naturally would not sincerely obey the Chen family's orders.
"What else do we need to discuss? Let's unite and attack the Huoyun Sect's mountain gate together. With so many of us, even if each of us spits, we can drown the Huoyun Sect's cultivators."
Feng Mengjian said disapprovingly that the Feng family had suffered losses, so naturally they hoped to plunder more property.
Mu Guobin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Feng Daoyou's suggestion is good. How about this! When we attack Huoyun Sect's mountain gate, your Feng family will be the first to attack Huoyun Sect. Your Feng family will be the first to take the credit and can get 20% more of the property. How do you think?"
If they attack the Huoyun Sect's headquarters, they will definitely be met with desperate resistance from the Huoyun Sect. Those who rush in the front will definitely be the Huoyun Sect's main targets of attack. Let alone 20%, even if Han Changming is given 50%, he will not go. Everyone is good at making big promises. Even if they really break through the Huoyun Sect's protective formation, there are probably not many people left. If someone shoots an arrow from behind, it will be almost the same as the entire army being wiped out.
Feng Mengjian smiled awkwardly and said with a red face: "Fellow Daoist Mu, you are joking. Our Feng family is too weak to take on this important task. I think Fellow Daoist Han is a good choice. They have three foundation-building cultivators and are quite strong."
Chen Hongming glanced at Feng Mengjian with an idiotic look. They were all from the same faction. You pushed the Han family to die? If the Han family was completely wiped out, what if the Mu and Qin families went back on their word? What if the two families fought back
"We in the Han family have three foundation-building cultivators, but we are only in the initial stage of foundation-building and cannot compare to Fellow Daoist Feng. The important task of attacking the island should be handed over to Fellow Daoist Feng!"
Han Daobin's tone was indifferent, and his eyes held a hint of disdain. If the Chen family spoke up to agree, he would immediately lead the team away. At worst, they would just fight among themselves, but only a fool would charge forward.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Mu and Fellow Daoist Qin and I have discussed this. Let's split up our forces and attack Huoyun Sect from different locations, giving full play to our advantages. If we are met with a fierce counterattack from Huoyun Sect, the others will support us as soon as possible and fight off the attack together."
Chen Hongming came out to smooth things over. He didn't like the Han family. He could plot against the Han family, but it depended on the situation. If they fought among themselves at this time, wouldn't that be stupid? If the Han family was completely wiped out, the interests of Chen Hongming's team would also be reduced. No wonder the Feng family was getting worse day by day. With such a person as the head of the family, the Feng family would perish sooner or later.
Mu Guobin and Qin Zongwang looked at each other and nodded to each other.
"That's right. We plan to divide our forces. We have a total of 19 immortal cultivation families. We can attack the Huoyun Sect headquarters from 19 locations and support each other. In this way, the Huoyun Sect will definitely not be able to hold on. Of course, if other Taoist friends have better ideas, you can also say them and we can discuss them together."
After hearing this, other foundation-building cultivators expressed their opinions. Few foundation-building cultivators advocated joining forces to attack Huoyun Sect. After all, they came from different forces, and who wouldn't worry about being shot in the back? Most foundation-building cultivators agreed to divide their forces, with one immortal cultivation family as one team, and nineteen teams launching attacks at the same time.
The minority obeyed the majority. After more than half an hour of wrangling, they reached a unanimous opinion and divided their forces to attack Huoyun Sect.
They had a heated discussion about the distribution of property. Everyone wanted to get more and they argued until their faces turned red. At this time, the advantages of the team's strength came into play. Mu Guobin's team suffered greater losses, while Chen Hongming's team suffered relatively less losses.
Han Changming shook his head. Are they sure to capture the Huoyun Sect headquarters? Even if they can, it doesn't make much sense to discuss the distribution of property now, because it is now distributed according to the current strength. If they capture the Huoyun Sect, their team will suffer heavy losses, and other teams will definitely not fulfill the agreement.
Judging from the traps set by Huoyunmen, Han Changming felt that it would not be easy to capture Huoyunmen. Anyway, they had already obtained a large amount of wealth. Even if they retreated now, they would be happy. To be honest, they were eager to retreat! Anyway, they had obtained so much wealth.
After robbing and killing Song Zhe and his group, every member of the clan became rich.
······
At Huoyun Sect, Sun Rong summoned the sect's foundation-building cultivators to discuss the withdrawal of troops.
"Master, didn't the Lu family say they would help us? How come until now, there's no sign of any cultivator from the Lu family?" Yang Yi said with a frown.
Sun Rong sighed and said viciously, "We've been fooled. I'm afraid the Lu family won't help us."
"That's impossible! Master, didn't you allocate more than a dozen islands to the Lu family? There's no reason for the Lu family to stand by and watch us die!"
"It's all my fault that I was blinded by greed and tried all kinds of methods. Now I see the true colors of the Lu family. Not only will the Lu family not help us, they will also join us and bite us hard. They just want to stabilize us and hope that we will inflict heavy damage on other immortal cultivation forces so that they can reap the benefits."
Sun Rong said with a wry smile that in order to repel the invading enemy, she did not hesitate to cede the territory that her ancestors had fought hard for to the Lu family. Who would have thought that the Lu family was a typical family that took the money but did not do the job, or in other words, the Lu family did not want to help from the beginning, but just wanted to use this to stabilize the Huoyun Sect, hoping that the Huoyun Sect would fight to the death with the invading enemy, and the fisherman would benefit from the conflict between the clams and the snipe.
"The Lu family hasn't taken over the island yet. If our Huoyun Sect is captured, what benefits can the Lu family get?"
Yang Yi asked with some confusion, there is nothing wrong with the Lu family plotting against Huoyun Sect, but what benefits can the Lu family get by doing so
"I wrote a document to the Lu family, a document to cede the islands. If our Huoyun Sect is destroyed, the Lu family can easily take away more than a dozen islands with the document. If we repel the invading enemy, the Lu family can also get more than a dozen islands. If I'm not mistaken, the monks of the Lu family are hiding somewhere, waiting for the final result!"
Sun Rong calmly analyzed that if the enemy behind the attack was not Tinghai Pavilion, Taixu Sect and Qingyun Sect, she would not have asked the Lu family for help. Now it seems that she is facing a wolf at the front door and a tiger at the back door.
"Tinghai Pavilion, Taixu Sect and Qingyun Sect may not agree! What's the use of the Lu family taking out the document then?"
"The law does not hold everyone responsible. Our Huoyun Sect is not strong to begin with. Tinghai Pavilion can destroy us. Why do the three major forces have to unite? They dare not come forward directly, so they have to push some representatives out. The more participants there are, the harder it is to deal with. Even if the Jiuyan Sect blames them, who should they blame? The three major forces have people backing them up, and the Lu family also has people backing them up. The Lu family took the island, but they also have to share the risks. If I were the leaders of the three major forces of Tinghai Pavilion, I would not refuse."
If the Red Algae Sea is a chessboard, all the immortal forces are chess pieces, and there are many flag bearers. If multiple forces unite to eat up the Fire Cloud Sect, the Nine Flame Sect will be difficult to deal with. If the law does not punish the masses, who should be retaliated against? If you retaliate against one family, I am afraid that everyone will attack them.
Yang Yi hesitated for a moment, then cautiously suggested: "Master, why don't we surrender? If we join one of the forces, we can still have a chance of survival. There is no need to fight to the death."
His words were agreed by many people. No one wants to die. Since you can survive, why not live on
Sun Rong glanced at Yang Yi with a look that looked like an idiot, and thought to herself, "I was really blind in the beginning. I focused on training him."
"Junior Brother Yang, who do you think is better to join? Will the other two forces unite? They fought hard to get in, so will they be happy to be asked to leave like this?"
Sun Rong sneered, her tone carrying a hint of indifference.
According to Sun Rong's plan, they could fight to the death, and at most they would have to cede most of their territory, as long as they could preserve the Huoyun Sect's orthodoxy. If, as Yang Yi said, they surrendered to one of the forces, not to mention whether the other two forces would agree, if Sun Rong really wanted to surrender, wouldn't it be better for her to run away with the treasures in the sect's treasury when the war started? Why should she live under someone else's roof and act according to someone else's wishes
Sun Rong grew up in Huoyun Sect and she has deep feelings for it. Before the previous leader died, Sun Rong said that she would definitely protect Huoyun Sect. She would never go back on her word. As long as Huoyun Sect is there, she will be there. If Huoyun Sect is gone, she will die.
"As long as we plan properly, it should be possible. The worst that can happen is that we have to pay some more money and property in exchange for our lives." Yang Yi said with a sheepish smile.
Sun Rong's eyes widened, she slapped the table, and said in a deep voice: "I am the head of the sect. I have made up my mind and swore to live and die with the sect. Anyone who retreats in the face of battle will be killed without mercy. Anyone who surrenders will be killed without mercy. From now on, you are allowed to enter but not leave. Without my order, no one is allowed to leave. Anyone who violates the order will be treated as a traitor and killed without mercy."
After hearing this, Yang Yi was shocked and agreed with a smile.
"Okay, now let's talk about the deployment of defenses. We will defend for a while, pretending that they have breached the sect protection formation, and then let some forces in to annihilate them. Then we will hold on and gradually retreat. In other words, I will make them pay a heavy price for every step they take forward."
Sun Rong said coldly, murderous.
"Yes, Master, I swear to live and die with the sect."
"I swear to live and die with the sect."
Lotus Sun nodded in satisfaction and arranged the specific defense.
······
On a deserted island, hundreds of feet underground, there is a cave hundreds of feet in size, hiding dozens of immortal cultivators. Leading the cave is a middle-aged Confucian scholar with a fair face. He holds a classic book in his hand and reads it with great interest.
There are many moonstones placed on the stone walls of the cave, making the cave as bright as day.
Dozens of immortal cultivators gathered in a corner, none of them saying a word, with different expressions on their faces.
A yellow light flashed, and a short and fat man in a yellow shirt came out from the stone wall. He quickly walked up to the middle-aged scholar and said respectfully, "Seventh Uncle, they are already attacking the main altar of Huoyun Sect. I think the result will be known soon. When should we take action? Huoyun Sect has been established for hundreds of years, so they must have a lot of wealth."
The middle-aged scholar turned a page of the book and said without raising his head, "Mo Xuan, learn something. The more you have to stay calm at this time, don't worry about him. Wait until the Fire Cloud Sect's headquarters is captured."
"Seventh Uncle, aren't we going to help Huoyun Sect?"
The man in yellow was slightly stunned and asked in confusion.
"People come and go for profit. We are here to eat meat, not to be beaten. Just wait patiently. If you don't understand, think about it more. Remember, oaths are the most unreliable. Don't believe what others say."
The middle-aged Confucian scholar said earnestly.
The man in yellow scratched his head, his eyes full of confusion. Seeing that the middle-aged scholar was unwilling to say more, he did not want to make himself look boring, so he walked to the corner and sat down.
······
Huoyun Island, the headquarters of the Huoyun Sect, a thick fog covered the entire island.
The nineteen immortal cultivation families attacked one point each and supported each other.
The Han family attacked from the northeast, with the Feng family on the left and the Mu family on the right.
Han Daobin ordered his tribesmen to cast powerful spells to attack Huoyun Island.
Boom!
A series of roars sounded, and all kinds of spells were cast into the white mist as if they were free. The white mist rolled violently, and under the intensive attack, a lot of the white mist was dispersed.
Han Changming took out a red porcelain bottle, releasing a large red flame, which hit the white mist.
While controlling the magic weapon to attack the Huoyun Sect's island protection formation, he also kept an eye on the surrounding situation to avoid being ambushed by others.
Han Daobin and Han Deling also used magical weapons to attack, but their attacks were not very powerful.
Nineteen teams and hundreds of immortal cultivators, each contributing a little, add up to a huge force, the Huoyun Sect will definitely not be able to resist.
After a cup of tea, the white fog in front rolled violently and most of it dissipated, revealing a gap several feet in size, through which a large green mountain range could be vaguely seen.
Han Changming frowned. Was the Huoyun Sect's protective formation so easily broken
Han Changming, Han Daobin and Han Deling looked at each other, some doubt appeared in their eyes. With the previous examples, they dared not to rush into anything. Of course, the main reason was that they had obtained a lot of money and property, so there was no need to rush into anything. Just pretending would be enough.
Feng Mengjian was somewhat tempted, but he had suffered losses before, so he did not dare to take any risks.
"Quickly block the gap in the formation, don't let the enemy rush in." An angry man's voice sounded.
The white mist rolled and the gap healed quickly.
"What a pity, Fellow Daoist Han, you should have rushed in just now."
Feng Mengjian said with some regret.
Han Changming sneered. This old guy only knew how to instigate others. Let him do it alone, but he was so cowardly.
"If Fellow Daoist Feng wants to go in, we won't stop him. What if this is a conspiracy of the Huoyun Sect?"
Han Daobin's tone was indifferent.
