Chapter 791: The Eve (Please Subscribe)_1

Night fell silently, Tianlan Peak!

In the courtyard, Xu Sheng and two others sat facing each other, concern painting Yun Cong's cheeks. "Sect Master hasn't returned yet, the situation must be quite serious this time!"

Beside him, Mu Yun nodded and agreed, "Definitely, after all we're facing the attacks from three sects. A lack of caution could lead to our destruction. Moreover, based on my analysis, the Xuantian Sect must already be under surveillance!"

Otherwise, Mu Qingge and the others would have dismissed the disciples of the sect first, rather than having no action up to now!

Mo Qingyue's beautiful eyes flickered a few times before she couldn't help sighing, "Unless the Xuantian Sect seeks help from other sects, once the fight starts, we'll have no power to resist!"

Seeing the three in such a disheartened state, Xu Sheng comforted them lightly, "Senior brother, senior sister, there's no need for despair. Perhaps Sect Master and the others have already found a way to resist."

Upon hearing his words, all three looked intently at him, their faces filled with confusion, "At such a time, only you, Junior Brother Xu, can remain so calm. I really don't know if you're overly relaxed or just confident!"

Hearing this, Xu Sheng merely smiled calmly without explaining anything...

"Crack," the door was slowly pushed open, and Yun Churan, radiating an icy aura, stepped inside...

Yun Cong and the three others called out in unison, "Sect Master!"

Yun Churan merely replied with an emotionless "Hmm" and sat down in her chair, quietly closing her beautiful eyes...

As the eldest disciple, Yun Cong conscientiously stood up, poured a cup of wine, and respectfully handed it to Yun Churan, "Sect Master, the discussions must have been tiring. Perhaps a cup of wine might help."

The other three, Xu Sheng included, watched Yun Churan... What's wrong with her?

After she took the cup of wine and guzzled it down, the fiery liquor surged into her chest, but her face showed not a hint of drunkenness, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor!

Her ice-blue eyes reopened, and with a cold voice she said, "This wine, has it been diluted with water? Why do I feel not the slightest hint of intoxication today?"

Usually, just one cup would make her feel quite drunk...

Seeing her bizarre behavior, Mo Qingyue asked worriedly, "Sect Master, are you alright?"

Upon hearing Mo Qingyue's concerned words, Yun Churan glanced at her and flatly replied, "I'm fine."

Mu Yun took a deep breath, mustering up the courage to ask, "Sect Master, may I know how the Sect Master plans to deal with the attack from the other three great sects?"

Xu Sheng and the others were also curious, staring at Yun Churan, waiting for her response.

She remained silent for a long while before finally speaking, "This battle is inevitable. If a war breaks out, flee as soon as you can."

Her tone was filled with deep helplessness...

Clearly, even after the discussion, they hadn't found a solution to the problem.

No sooner had she spoken than Yun Cong immediately objected, "Sect Master, what are you saying? How could we possibly abandon you and run for our lives?"

Mu Yun also earnestly added, "Right, even if it means dying here, we would never think of fleeing!"

Mo Qingyue's beautiful eyes shimmered resolutely as she declared, "Having lived in the Xuantian Sect and with you, Sect Master, for so long, how could we run away over such a trifling matter!"

Seeing Yun Cong and the others had said what he wanted to say, Xu Sheng could only voice his agreement, "My senior brothers and sister are right!"

Yun Churan gazed deeply at her four disciples, and like someone who had aged many years, sighed heavily...

Then she spoke softly, "Yun Cong, bring the wine jar here. It's been a long time since your master could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk..."

...

"Hiss~ Hiss!"

Outside the Xuantian Sect, faint vibrations began to arise from the surrounding forest...

If one looked closely, they would discover many disciples clad in sect attire hidden within...

Each disciple's cultivation level was above the Foundation Establishment Stage! Among them, there were no lack of powerhouses in the Nascent Soul Stage!

One of the Tianliu Sect disciples spoke with a grave expression, "Everyone, brace yourselves and keep an eye on Xuantian Sect's movements. We must not let them seek help from other sects!"

The disciples from the other sects, upon hearing this, dismissed the concern with a scoff, "Pfft, you're too cautious! Seek help? Right now, Xuantian Sect is completely surrounded by our three Great Sects' people! If they try to escape, they probably won't get far before being stopped!"

"Even though our three Great Sects are now united, you don't have the right to command us, understand?"

"Exactly, Xuantian Sect has no chance of resisting this time. By noon tomorrow, the Sect Master and many disciples will surely lead an assault! A small Xuantian Sect can be snuffed out in the blink of an eye!"

"Always so timid and fearful, I really have no idea why your Tianliu Sect even bothers to get involved!"

The face of the Tianliu Sect disciple who had just cautioned them suddenly turned unsightly, but he forcefully swallowed the retort that was on the tip of his tongue...

Infighting at a time like this would only be advantageous to Xuantian Sect!

Seconds later, a Tianliu Sect disciple hurried to his side and respectfully reported, "Report! Senior Brother, I've just confirmed with disciples at other locations that the people from Xuantian Sect have no intention of fleeing!"

Hearing this, the weight in the latter's heart was at last lifted...

...

The next day, streaks of fish-belly white reappeared in the sky, indicating the arrival of a new day...

Early in the morning, all the disciples of Xuantian Sect received orders to assemble outside Xuantian Peak....

If one were to look down from above, they could see the multitude of disciples crowding below, their eyes filled with confusion as they looked up at Mu Qingge and others standing on the towering Xuantian Peak!

Of course, Xu Sheng and the others were no exception!

Atop Xuantian Peak, Mu Qingge, her eyes stern, glanced downward and used her spiritual power to amplify her voice...

"Today, I'm sure many disciples are wondering why you've been gathered this morning, but this is not a cause for celebration!"

"Recently, we have obtained reliable information that the other three Great Sects will join forces within a few days, aiming to annihilate our Xuantian Sect!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the disciples below changed dramatically, and a cacophony of voices suddenly filled Xuantian Peak...

"What? The other three Great Sects are uniting to attack us? Can't be true, can it?"

"How can it be false? This is coming straight from the Sect Master's mouth!"

"What do we do now? With Xuantian Sect's strength, there's no way we can withstand this!"

"It's all over, I've just joined Xuantian Sect, how could I encounter such a thing! Is it still possible to leave the sect now?"

"Have the other three Great Sects gone mad? Aren't we allies? To do such a despicable thing!"

...…
