Chapter 1737: Chapter 1427: My Main Body Will Definitely Capture the Two of Them
Seeing that Ye Chuyao and Lu Chen both agreed, Weixue Immortal Monarch finally felt relieved. There were too many uncertainties in this war, and traps were certainly lying in wait for them ahead, so she didn’t want Ye Chuyao and Lu Chen to get involved in the danger.
As for their leading role in boosting the morale of the disciples, their mere presence here was already fulfilling that function.
The identity and status of a direct disciple and an ordinary disciple are inherently different. A direct disciple’s identity is much more precious, especially when they are the Hall Master’s direct disciple. In such a survival-of-the-fittest world, there’s no such thing as everyone being equal.
After reminding Lu Chen and Ye Chuyao to stay safe, Weixue Immortal Monarch turned back to the Meeting Hall. Soon, the Sect Masters of various sects also arrived at the Meeting Hall, and after a brief meeting, the Mysterious Moon Palace formally launched a full-scale attack on the Jade Dragon Sect.
At the same time, the disciples of the Baiman Sect, under the leadership of their Sect Master, truly took on the role of the vanguard.
Seeing that the Baiman Sect did not directly betray them but instead acted as the vanguard, made Xuan Fox Immortal Monarch somewhat puzzled. He was considering dealing with the traitorous Baiman Sect to impress Weixue Immortal Monarch, but these results showed no signs of betrayal at all?
Could it be that he misunderstood them, and their low casualties were just because they were being crafty?
Meanwhile.
At the Baiman Sect’s base.
In a certain room, Baiman Immortal Monarch sat on a seat, leisurely sipping tea, and after a gentle sip, a grin almost split his face open.
“Just as I thought, Ye Chuyao and Chen Lu won’t go to the front line!”
“As soon as the battle begins, I will immediately take action against the two of them. If I can capture them, I will surely gain attention in the Blood Eagle Hall.”
To stay at the base and capture Ye Chuyao and Lu Chen, Baiman Immortal Monarch specially summoned his clone. During the meeting, it was his main body that attended, and as soon as the meeting ended, he immediately had the clone lead the army towards the Jade Dragon Sect. Due to his fast speed, he believed that for the time being, no one would discover that it was his clone leading the frontlines.
Very soon, the Baiman Sect’s army arrived outside the Jade Dragon Sect’s mountain gate, and at this moment, a formation directly enveloped the Baiman Sect.
Soon after, a blood mist spread around, and in just a moment, the entire expeditionary force was shrouded in this blood mist.
Moreover, this blood mist could suppress divine sense exploration.
Weixue Immortal Monarch instantly understood what was happening; this was the Blood Eagle Hall’s way of bringing the Baiman Sect over. Weixue Immortal Monarch didn’t panic at all; she immediately began to command, lining up the warships of the Mysterious Moon Palace and affiliated sects, then fired devastating beams towards the Jade Dragon Sect.
Weixue Immortal Monarch waved a hand, letting out a cold shout.
“Icebound Wasteland!!!”
In just a moment, the blood mist was frozen. Although she felt that this blood mist somewhat restrained her immortal power, this minor restraint didn’t play a significant role.
In the next instant, the blood mist enveloping them was instantly frozen, and as the warship’s destructive beams shot out, the frozen blood mist shattered like glass. Immediately, the battlefield was restored to clarity.
However, when their sight was restored, they found no trace of the Baiman Sect’s people. Seeing this, Weixue Immortal Monarch wasn’t surprised at all.
Yet Xuan Fox Immortal Monarch was extremely furious, “To think these traitors escaped; if I had known earlier, I should have acted directly!”
At this moment, Weixue Immortal Monarch transmitted a message to all the affiliated sects present, “The Baiman Sect has betrayed the Mysterious Moon Palace. Henceforth, all Baiman Sect members will be deemed evil immortals!”
Hearing these words, the people from the other sects were momentarily stunned, but they quickly understood. They were puzzled as to why the Baiman Sect’s casualties were so low; it turned out they had already joined the Blood Eagle Hall.
Thinking that their heavy losses might have been because the Baiman Sect leaked their battle plans to the evil immortals of the Blood Eagle Hall, the affiliated sects were extremely furious, wishing they could tear the traitorous Baiman Sect to pieces.
At the same time, some people started to worry. If the Baiman Sect had betrayed the Mysterious Moon Palace, wouldn’t today’s battle plans have been leaked by the Baiman Sect too? If they continued to attack as planned, wouldn’t they fall into the Blood Eagle Hall’s trap?
Just as people were thinking this, they suddenly noticed many blood-tinged warships sailing out from the Jade Dragon Sect.
All sects immediately went on high alert.
It’s the Blood Eagle Hall; the Blood Eagle Hall has revealed itself!
In the next instant, the Blood Eagle Hall’s ships also fired blood-colored beams. Weixue Immortal Monarch immediately ordered everyone to activate the protective array on their ships.
Seeing the warships not far away, Weixue Immortal Monarch fell into contemplation; with just a few warships, it’s obviously not the entirety of the Blood Eagle Hall’s forces stationed at the Jade Dragon Sect. It seems like someone is hiding in the dark, or they are trying to lure them over.
Meanwhile, inside the Jade Dragon Sect.
In the Meeting Hall, seeing their side’s warships exchanging fire with the Mysterious Moon Palace’s warships, Broken Soul Immortal Monarch looked somewhat displeased.
His gaze then settled on the clone of Baiman Immortal Monarch, and then he asked, “Where is your main body? Why did you let a clone lead the Baiman Sect’s people here?”
The original plan was to let the Baiman Sect lead the Mysterious Moon Palace’s people into their formation. However, the Baiman Sect reached the Jade Dragon Sect’s mountain gate, while the Mysterious Moon Palace and affiliated sects were still far away.
Those responsible for guiding the Baiman Sect, upon seeing that the Baiman Sect had arrived, hurriedly activated the blood mist great array. As a result, while the Baiman Sect entered the Jade Dragon Sect, the Mysterious Moon Palace’s warships did not fall into the trap.
This made Broken Soul Immortal Monarch suspect whether Baiman Immortal Monarch let a clone lead the Baiman Sect’s army, arousing Weixue Immortal Monarch’s suspicion, hence deliberately keeping a distance between the army and the Baiman Sect.
Seeing Broken Soul Immortal Monarch seemed a bit angry, the Baiman Immortal Monarch’s clone quickly said, “My main body is still at the Baiman Sect’s base. I intend to capture Ye Chuyao and Chen Lu while the Mysterious Moon Palace attacks the Jade Dragon Sect.”
Hearing this, Broken Soul Immortal Monarch’s expression softened a bit, and he then said, “If you can capture the two of them, I won’t hold this failed lure against you for now.”
The Baiman Immortal Monarch’s clone immediately said, “Please don’t worry, my lord. My main body will definitely capture the two of them. Now that there are no Immortal Monarch level experts left behind the Mysterious Moon Palace, no one can stop my main body.”
At this moment, Jade Dragon Immortal Monarch looked at the projection screen in the hall and then said, “What should we do next? If the Mysterious Moon Palace doesn’t enter the formation, our arranged formation will be useless.”
Broken Soul Immortal Monarch said calmly, “No rush. Since they intend to destroy the Jade Dragon Sect, they will have to approach it. We’ll let our men feign engagement with them and then retreat, and they will naturally pursue us.”
