917: Chapter 913: Fearless Against Strong Opponents!
“Ye Tian, there is no banquet in the world that doesn’t come to an end.
Now, whether it’s you or me, we are both at the eye of the storm.
Therefore, we should be discussing strategies rather than indulging in debauchery here!”
“Although it is regrettable, it seems that it’s time for us to bid each other farewell!”
Daichong said helplessly.
Ye Tian did not hesitate either, and without lingering in Young Master Long’s room, he returned straight to his own chamber.
Early the next morning, during breakfast in the main hall, Ye Tian announced loudly the decision he had made with Tianmen’s new Sect Leader, Daichong—
“Everyone, the current situation is dire.
The death of Young Master Long has placed us in a passive position!
Therefore, now is not the time for revelry and indulgence; we must prepare for what is coming!”
“There is no banquet in the world that doesn’t come to an end.
As martial artists, we cannot afford to live in decadence; we need an acute sense of crisis!”
“Thus, I have reached a consensus with Tianmen’s new Sect Leader, Daichong.
Night King Hall will temporarily align with Tianmen, face the upcoming crisis together, and combat the forces behind Young Master Long!”
Ye Tian’s words shocked all the martial artists present!
In fact, the decision for Daichong to become Tianmen’s next Sect Leader was known only to Tianmen’s inner sect disciples; even the outer sect disciples were oblivious to it.
So Ye Tian’s words struck the multitude of outer sect disciples like a bombshell.
All eyes turned to Daichong.
This newly appointed Sect Leader was known for practicing the doctrine of moderation in his dealings, refraining from offending others.
With Daichong in position, at least Tianmen would no longer exhibit the bloodthirsty and brutal governance it had under Wu Wei Zi.
The martial artists of Night King Hall, along with the four elders of the Ye family, weren’t particularly concerned about who held power in Tianmen, but Ye Tian’s words stirred a deep sense of reflection.
Previously, Night King Hall operated independently, but facing formidable enemies, it formed an alliance with the Ye family.
Now, as the current enemy proved even more powerful than the Sima family, even a sect like Tianmen had become Night King Hall’s ally…
What everyone felt was not excitement over a new ally but fear towards the even more terrifying enemy ahead!
When Ye Tian finished speaking, it was finally Daichong’s turn to address the crowd!
Daichong walked to the front and spoke eloquently—
“Everyone, whether you belong to Tianmen or not, as long as we are gathered in Biyao Palace today, we are all on the same boat!”
“Tianmen in the past indeed committed many wrongs, but I promise everyone here, as long as I’m in charge, those mistakes will never be repeated!”
“Tianmen once divided its disciples into stratified ranks, denying the outer sect disciples access to the authentic Wind Flow Strength cultivation technique.
This was an egregious mistake!”
“Now, under my leadership, Tianmen will no longer separate the inner sect from the outer sect.
All disciples will be treated equally, and everyone will be able to cultivate Wind Flow Strength!”
“From now on, I will ensure that the complete Wind Flow Strength cultivation technique is taught to every former outer sect disciple!”
Daichong spoke with fervor, and naturally, the group most thrilled by his words were the former outer sect disciples of Tianmen!
The complete Wind Flow Strength technique was on a completely different level than the fragmented version they had previously practiced.
In other words, upon mastering the complete technique, their strength could reach unprecedented heights!
What could be more exhilarating than this?
Of course, the enthusiasm of the outer sect disciples did not last long.
Tianmen’s new Sect Leader, Daichong, continued—
“Yes, teaching the complete Wind Flow Strength technique to every disciple is both an act of repentance for Tianmen’s past transgressions and a preparation for the upcoming battle!”
“It is well known that since Young Master Long arrived at Tianmen, he has acted with impunity.
None of us know his true identity; we only know that he is guarded by an extraordinarily strong bodyguard!”
“An outstanding martial artist like Wang Cai would abase himself to serve Young Master Long without question.
I trust all of us fear the forces behind him!”
“However, Young Master Long’s sudden death in Tianmen is both accidental and inevitable!”
“At this point, assigning blame is a mistake.
Now, what all of us must do is unify our hearts and strength.
Only then can we face the foes ahead!”
Daichong’s words made everyone’s spine stiffen in the chill.
All of Tianmen’s disciples, inner and outer alike, were aware of Young Master Long’s existence and the terrifying prowess of Wang Cai.
Therefore, it was natural for Young Master Long’s family to vent their fury towards Tianmen and Night King Hall following his death.
A previously unrelated pair of powers like Tianmen and Night King Hall choosing to form an alliance also made perfect sense!
Though the outer sect disciples were delighted to have access to the full Wind Flow Strength technique, the forthcoming enemy seemed so overwhelmingly powerful that all martial artists couldn’t help but be deeply worried…
Even cultivating the complete Wind Flow Strength might make them stronger, yet they could still face premature death in the imminent battles…
Once Daichong finished speaking, Ye Tian began his turn—
“My friends, no matter where we stand or the path we choose to walk, we must confront the reality before us!”
“There’s no escaping it, nor do we need to run!
Though the enemy ahead is formidable, we ourselves are no pushovers!”
“Hence, challenging fate with every ounce of determination is our only path forward!
Unleash your full potential, for it is time to challenge the summit of the Martial Arts World!”
“The road you choose is yours to decide!”
After speaking, Ye Tian cast his gaze across all the martial artists present!
Ye Tian’s words were both a provocation and an inspiration to the martial artists in Biyao Palace’s hall!
The martial artists responded with determination—
“Boss, rest assured!
We will follow you forever!
Even if you challenge the heavens themselves, we will stand by you!”
“Yes, Boss!
We know in our hearts that only you are the future of Night King Hall!
We will fight alongside you, no matter how long!”
“With Boss leading us and our combined resolve, how could we fear even the strongest enemy?”
…
—The martial artists of Night King Hall were utterly loyal to Ye Tian and naturally had no other choice.
Since Ye Tian had resolved to defy the pinnacle of the Martial Arts World, the martial artists of Night King Hall would naturally follow and fight alongside him!
“The Ye family stands united as well!
At this moment, everyone here shares the same fate.
The Ye family will bet its thousand-year legacy to challenge this unjust Martial Arts World!”
“Though we’ve grown old, we will never give up on changing this world!
In our twilight years, we hope we can make a difference!”
“Precisely!
These are the moments for us old-timers to shine their brightest!”
“One day, when we fall, we’ll carry no regrets for the choices we made.
We’ll depart this world with a smile!”
—The Ye family elders, long allied with Ye Tian and Night King Hall, naturally shared Ye Tian’s resolve!
With their remaining years providing a spirited flame, they wouldn’t let it smolder now.
“We at Tianmen will not fall behind!
Young Master Long may not have killed anyone personally, but many Tianmen disciples perished at Wang Cai’s hands under his orders.
His arrogance surely reflects his family’s character!”
“Yes!
No disciple of Tianmen would tolerate someone like Young Master Long existing in the world.
His death is a relief!
If his family seeks revenge, let them come!
We are ready!”
“Let the storm rage on!
We fear nothing!
Tianmen fears nothing!
Nor will Tianmen’s allies!”
…
—The former inner sect disciples of Tianmen stood united, each expressing their resolve.
For these inner sect disciples, they knew Young Master Long’s ill deeds best.
Their unease stemmed not from him directly but from the forces behind him!
Now that Young Master Long had died at Tianmen, there would be no avoiding a ferocious backlash from his supporters.
Faced with the inevitable, they might as well fight with everything they had!
“We will not flee!
Young Master Long gambled all of our lives for his own whims.
Such behavior is infuriating!
Even if we lack the strength, we must fight the forces behind him!”
“Indeed!
Enough is enough!
Their arrogance is intolerable!
It’s time for Young Master Long’s family and their supporters to witness the wrath of us martial artists!
We aren’t easy prey!”
“Exactly!
After enduring oppression for so long, it’s better to retaliate fiercely rather than submit and perish quietly.
Let’s make them pay!”
