Rebirth as a Tiger: Sister is the Reborn Empress!-Chapter 391 - 389: Pick the Weak to Attack—Ten Thousand Beasts Hall Will Be Our First Target!
"Second Brother, what kind of grand array is this? Just a glance at it makes my heart tremble!"
Nangong Luo looked at the terrifying Celestial Demon Array and exclaimed in surprise. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
The dangerous aura emitted by this array was even more intense than when she faced Elder Red Sparrow of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall before. It was certainly beyond the scope of the usual eighth level.
"Second Brother, you are indeed extraordinary. With such a grand array, what need have we to fear this rabble at Tiger King Ridge!"
Jiang Che also naturally felt the power of this array, sighing inwardly.
Only someone like Second Brother, an old demon for years and the reincarnation of the Ancient Demon Monarch, could set up such a terrifying array that reaches the threshold of the eighth tier or even the ninth tier, just after breaking through the seventh tier.
Moments later, seeing that it was still quiet outside Tiger King Ridge, Nangong Luo spoke disdainfully, "Big Brother, those guys haven’t dared to challenge the array even now. I think they’ve chickened out!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Che nodded slightly. In fact, he wouldn’t be surprised if those guys retreated.
This is because the array set up by Second Brother is unfathomable, and its power is not something your average eighth tier can contend with.
Even Jiang Che himself wasn’t sure he could break the array directly. If the elders of the ancient sects dared to challenge it, it would be certain death.
...
At this time, outside Tiger King Ridge, it was silent.
Daoist Xuanxu and the others exchanged glances, showing various expressions.
The departure of the Celestial Demon Sect had directly made many sects hesitant about staying, but having marched in so grandly, retreating now would cause them to lose face as ancient sects.
This concern left many sects stuck here, unable to advance or retreat.
Moving forward meant facing the terrifying array of the Black Demon Tiger, full of danger. Retreating meant losing face and the reverence due to the ancient sects.
"Daoist Xuanxu, your Shushan Sword Sect promised to lead the vanguard this time; only then did we agree to this action. Shouldn’t your Shushan Sword Sect make a move now?"
At this moment, Qing Mu looked at Daoist Xuanxu and the other four from Shushan Sword Sect, speaking slowly, with some implication in his words.
This array is absolutely terrifying. Only by letting the Shushan Sword Sect probe it can we determine if the operation to destroy Tiger King Ridge can proceed.
As for any losses suffered by the Shushan Sword Sect, that is not something his Pure Origin Immortal Sect should worry about.
"Amitabha, Daoist Qing Mu makes sense. Daoist Xuanxu, it’s time for your Shushan Sword Sect to take a stand.
We can only proceed to break the array once we’ve explored its reality!"
Not far away, Ku Rong also stepped forward, palms together, looking at Daoist Xuanxu and the others.
"Indeed, please ask the friends from the Shushan Sword Sect to go and take a look!"
"Daoist Xuanxu, do not decline, after all, this action was initiated by your Shushan Sword Sect."
"Please, Daoist Xuanxu..."
Subsequently, people from other sects also chimed in, urging the Shushan Sword Sect to explore the array.
Targeted by everyone, the five members of the Shushan Sword Sect, including Daoist Xuanxu, turned pale with anger, their eyes full of fury.
These guys indeed made smart calculations, wanting the Shushan Sword Sect to take the risk while they remained safely behind.
The Shushan Sword Sect did indeed promise to act as the vanguard in this operation, but there’s no way they’re going to court death intentionally.
This array is evidently extraordinary. Whoever goes will not fare well, and there’s even the risk of perishing.
"Hmph, are you dreaming? The reason our Shushan Sword Sect initiated this operation was to restore the sect’s reputation. You all agreed, not out of good heart, but also thinking about your own sects’ reputation?
Therefore, our Shushan Sword Sect owes you nothing. If you think we’re going to sacrifice ourselves, think again!"
Angry to the extreme, Xuan Jian stepped forward and reprimanded sharply.
"Exactly, if you expect our Shushan Sword Sect to go into the array, it seems you mean ill. If anyone dares speak out again, don’t blame me for being impolite!"
Behind him, Xuan Yuan wielded an Immortal Sword, coldly watching everyone and threatening openly.
At this time, Daoist Xuanxu, who had been silent, also responded coldly, "Fellow cultivators, this time the array set by the Black Demon Tiger is too powerful. Although our Shushan Sword Sect has promised to be the vanguard, knowing it’s a dead situation, our sect is powerless.
This operation is entirely voluntary. If anyone is dissatisfied with what our sect chooses, feel free to leave; our Shushan Sword Sect will not stop you!"
Seeing the Shushan Sword Sect’s stance, Qing Mu and others knew it was impossible to get them to test the array for them.
For a time, the atmosphere in the field was stuck like this, with everyone remaining silent.
"Everyone, the heart of this operation was simply to recover the reputations of our respective sects! Since it is about vanquishing demons and evil, why should we fixate on Tiger King Ridge?
Isn’t there still the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall among the demon forces?
Although attacking the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall won’t have the same effect as destroying Tiger King Ridge, attacking Tiger King Ridge is no longer possible, so we can only settle for the next best thing."
Just as the group was on the verge of collapsing, standing beside Qing Mu, Qing Yu suddenly suggested.
Of course, one picks the soft persimmon to pinch. Since they cannot deal with Tiger King Ridge, they can take the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall as their target, which might also restore most of the sects’ reputations.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.
Yes, their main purpose was for reputation. As long as they could restore that, there was no need to confront Tiger King Ridge directly. While not as effective as destroying Tiger King Ridge, it’s better than nothing.
"Daoist Qing Yu makes sense. Fellow cultivators, we can entirely turn to head towards the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall. As long as this battle can showcase our sects’ might, the original reputation will naturally be restored!"
Daoist Xuanxu nodded, glanced at everyone, and affirmed.
"Indeed, whether it’s fighting Tiger King Ridge or the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, both are about slaying demons and evil; the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall also belongs to a major demon force and can entirely serve as a target,"
Standing beside, Xuan Jian also quickly nodded. Now that attacking Tiger King Ridge was impossible, it was right to push the group towards attacking the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall.
"Amitabha, this humble monk thinks it’s worth a try. When the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall emerged, it was also arrogant and domineering. Its demon kings often harassed cities of the Great Qin Empire, causing many Great Qin Empire people to detest them.
If we can attack the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall and slay demons, it will certainly restore our reputation among the human race."
Ku Rong nodded, highly agreeing with this suggestion.
Subsequently, various other sects also expressed agreement, as long as they didn’t have to challenge the terrifying array laid down by the Black Demon Tiger, everything was negotiable.
After all, compared to sect reputation, their lives were more important.
Now that there was a win-win solution, they naturally wouldn’t oppose it.
