A rare opportunity
Chapter 788 Guilt
Seeing the chaotic situation effectively under control, Li Yu felt an inexplicable sense of relief! Logically speaking, he should be happy that he had effectively killed and wounded the enemy. However, looking at the piles of enemy corpses on the ground, he couldn't be happy no matter what!
He had no desire to kill, and he wasn't a bloodthirsty person. But the Xianxia Sect pressed him relentlessly, leaving him with no choice! Even though he had no choice, the scene before him was still oppressive and terrifying.
Hou Rujing and the others also felt oppressed! Their faces were gloomy and silent! Only the vulture, the big white rabbit, the ape demon, and the other demon beasts were jubilant! After all, they had always been suppressed by the human race, and now they could finally hold their heads high.
It can be said that the battle in the air was a one-sided massacre. However, the battle on the ground was much more brutal! After all, although the monsters were numerous, their strength was far inferior to that of the human race.
Although the initial attack caused a panic among the human race, leading to a complete rout, the saying goes, even a trapped beast will still fight! Those monks who were scattered and trapped in the group of monsters, seeing that they could not survive anyway, no longer feared it! Instead, they fought back with all their might!
The demon beasts were not very organized, let alone coordinated. They simply charged forward without prompting to organize and destroy them. Yin Zijuan shouted, but to little effect. This caused the cultivators to charge recklessly into the demon beasts, resulting in the deaths of a large number of them.
Yin Zijuan had no choice but to follow them and clean up the mess. The battle in the air ended, and the cultivators on the ground, under the command of the Xianxia Sect cultivators, stabilized their position and retreated slowly and orderly. The demon beasts, unable to charge forward, finally obeyed her orders and stopped.
Although the demon beasts suffered some losses in this battle, it was still a great victory! Not only did it deal a heavy blow to the Xianxia Sect, but it also boosted the morale of the entire demon beast community! The entire demon clan cheered and was extremely excited.
Despite a great victory, Li Yu couldn't be happy no matter what! The bloody scene kept flashing in his mind, lingering! Although he didn't want it to happen, this scene would happen again, even more tragic and bloody! Unless the Xianxia Nengzong gave up the siege of the Yunfu Mountains.
Obviously, this situation wouldn't happen! As one of the five major sects, the Xianxia Sect couldn't afford to lose face like this! If they gave up the siege of the Yunfu Mountains at this moment, it would undoubtedly be admitting defeat to Li Yu. The Xianxia Sect couldn't afford such a result!
This would inevitably affect the Xianxia Sect's reputation in the cultivation world, and would inevitably lead to ridicule from the other four major sects, and even other sects and families! This would affect the Xianxia Sect's status in the cultivation world, and it would be expelled from the list of the five major sects. This was unacceptable to the Xianxia Sect, which had always been so high and mighty!
Therefore, no matter how much it costs, the Xianxia Sect will do everything they can to destroy him! Now, the conflict between him and the Xianxia Sect is like fire and water, and it will not end until one side dies!
Ever since the Xianxia Sect's elders indiscriminately tried to put him to death, Li Yu had lost his good impression of the Xianxia Sect! When the Xianxia Sect used disciples from other sects as their cannon fodder, Li Yu was disgusted!
If they were only dealing with the Xianxia Sect, and if all the dead cultivators were disciples and elders of the Xianxia Sect, Li Yu wouldn't have felt such a heavy burden. However, most of the dead were not disciples and elders of the Xianxia Sect, but disciples and elders of the sects and families that had been coerced by the Xianxia Sect!
Although these people were accomplices of the evil and were destined for death, Li Yu couldn't bear it. After all, he didn't want to be an enemy of the entire Xuanyuan Star. He hoped that Xi Wuyou could quickly escape pursuit and disperse his people.
Isolating the Xianxia Sect would be difficult with just his 100,000 men. However, persuading some of the sects and families to retreat was still possible! As long as those sects and families withdrew from the siege of the Yunfu Mountains, at least he would have caused less bloodshed!
If more of those sects and families withdrew, the other four major sects would probably also consider whether to wade into this muddy water! Li Yu was no pushover, not so easy to squeeze! After all, the Xianxia Sect had almost put all its strength into it, but there was nothing it could do to Li Yu.
In this way, even if the immortal hero insisted on not retreating, the pressure he faced would be much less! Whether it was the pressure from the real enemy or his own psychological pressure.
Xi Wuyou and Wu Changlin ran all the way, trying to escape the enemy's pursuit. Unfortunately, the nine cultivators kept chasing them! Although they couldn't get close, they couldn't distance themselves either.
Xi Wuyou couldn't help but feel anxious! If they couldn't get rid of the pursuers quickly, when that seventh-level master arrived, the two of them would be dead!
Wu Changlin was not only anxious, but also deeply guilty! If Xi Wuyou hadn't done it for him, he would have already disappeared without a trace, and how could he have ended up in such a predicament? He thought to himself: Brother Xi is so loyal and righteous, how could I, Wu Changlin, be such an ungrateful person? After all, he gave me my life, so I might as well give it back to him! He immediately slowed down, ready to block the enemy's pursuit and buy time for Xi Wuyou to escape.
Xi Wuyou, who was running, was suddenly surprised to find that Wu Changlin had fallen behind. Thinking that Wu Changlin was injured, he quickly stopped and turned around and exclaimed:
"Wu Sheng! What's wrong with you?"
"Leave me alone! Go away!"
Wu Changlin also shouted, suddenly turned around and rushed towards the pursuers!
Xi Wuyou immediately understood what he meant. After a moment's hesitation, he shouted:
"Wu Sheng! Come back soon! You risked your life to save me, how could I escape alone? Let's escape together, and die together!"
Wu Changlin was stunned upon hearing this! Turning around, he saw Xi Wuyou also turning around and chasing after him. He couldn't help but be deeply moved! It seemed that he had not misjudged him! He was indeed a man who valued friendship and loyalty!
After all, there was still a chance to escape. How could Wu Changlin let Xi Wuyou accompany him to die? He immediately turned and rushed towards Xi Wuyou, shouting:
"Alright! Today, I, Wu, will live and die with Brother Tu! However, now is not the time to fight to the death. Let's escape first!"
"Alright! Let's do as Wu Sheng said. Today we will live and die together!"
"Could it be that Brother Tu still doesn't want to acknowledge me as his brother? From now on, you and I should share both happiness and hardship!"
"Huh? Hahaha! It's all my fault, don't blame me, Brother Wu!"
"Alright, alright! Today, you and I will become brothers. Since I'm a few years older than you, I'll naturally be your older brother!"
"Brother, I dare not hide this from you. Tu San is not my real name. I am Xi Wuyou, your younger brother, to greet you, Big Brother!"
Wu Changlin was stunned! Then he couldn't help laughing! Although he didn't know why Xi Wuyou chose a pseudonym, he actually told him the truth, which meant he really treated them as brothers!
To be honest, Xi Wuyou turned around and chased Wu Changlin, although friendship was partly his motivation, it wasn't the main reason. He was willing to take the risk because he knew that even if Wu Changlin turned around to stop him, he wouldn't be able to escape!
If two of them were together, he might still have a chance of escaping. But if Wu Changlin really turned around to block him, then he would have no chance! They only needed to send two people to hold Wu Changlin back, and then he would be chased by seven people alone!
Facing the pursuit of seven Saint Realms with strength comparable to his own, Xi Wuyou had no chance of escaping alone! Even if he was far ahead! With their relentless pursuit, even if he wasn't killed, he would be exhausted to death!
With Wu Changlin, things were different! Two against nine, they weren't necessarily powerless! Xi Wuyou felt somewhat guilty about Wu Changlin's true feelings! After all, his own motives were not pure!
However, after Wu Changlin's tossing and turning, the distance between the two sides was greatly shortened! They could even clearly hear each other's excited panting!
Although the two were chatting and laughing, they were actually more anxious in their hearts! They were both secretly thinking about how to deal with the enemy.
As Xi Wuyou fled, he chatted and laughed with Wu Changlin while looking around, hoping to find a favorable position to shake off his opponent.
