Chapter 319 The Immortal Sect Faces Peril Again, Yao Xin Bravely Embarks on the Challenge
That chilling voice, like the hiss of a venomous snake, sent shivers down my spine.
Almost simultaneously, Wen Chen shielded me behind him, his immortal sword humming as he warily surveyed his surroundings.
Damn it, we were ambushed!
"Who?!" Wen Chen shouted sharply.
Before the words were finished, several dark figures descended from the sky, appearing before us like ghosts.
They were cloaked in black, obscuring their faces, and held weapons that gleamed coldly, exuding a suffocating murderous aura.
I recognized them at a glance – they were remnants of the Thunder Demon King's forces!
They actually dared to come!
"Kill!" The leader of the men in black let out a hoarse growl and launched the first attack on us.
"Damn it!" I cursed under my breath, quickly reacting by conjuring a burst of spiritual energy in my hand to block the incoming attack.
Wen Chen was equally unyielding, brandishing his immortal sword and engaging in fierce combat with his enemies.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" My voice echoed across the square, instantly waking the people who were immersed in the joy of victory. They drew their weapons and prepared to fight back.
My gaze swept around, and my heart sank.
The Immortal Gate suffered severe damage in the previous battles, and its fortifications have not yet been repaired. The broken city walls are like a beast with its mouth wide open, and could be breached by the enemy at any time.
"General Zhao, organize the defense!" I shouted, while simultaneously repelling a black-clad man who attempted to ambush me.
General Zhao rushed over, his face full of worry.
"Fairy, the city walls are badly damaged and may not be able to withstand the enemy's attack."
I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.
"I know, but we must hold on and wait for reinforcements to arrive!"
The battle was extremely fierce. Although the number of enemies was not large, they were all elites who fought ruthlessly and with deadly moves.
Although the disciples of the immortal sect fought back with all their might, the previous battles had already exhausted them, and now, facing a powerful enemy again, they inevitably felt somewhat powerless.
I was extremely anxious, knowing that the immortal sect's defenses were weak at the moment, and if the enemy launched a full-scale attack, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Wen Chen, we need to find a way to break through and ask other immortal sects for help!" I said to Wen Chen while fending off the enemy's attacks.
Wen Chen nodded solemnly. "Alright, I'll cover you!"
Just then, a man in black suddenly appeared from the side, his sharp blade aimed straight at my chest.
I dodged, but my arm was still scratched.
"Hiss—" I gasped, blood instantly staining my sleeves.
"Xiao Yao!" Upon seeing this, Wen Chen's eyes widened in fury, and the immortal sword in his hand burst forth with dazzling light, killing the man in black with a single strike.
"I'm fine," I said through gritted teeth, forcing back the pain. "We have to hurry..."
Before I could finish speaking, I saw Pharmacist Lin stagger over, his face pale and covered in sweat.
"Fairy, something terrible has happened..."
Pharmacist Lin staggered up to me, covered in sweat, his face as white as paper.
"Fairy, something terrible has happened! The medicinal herbs...we've run out!"
His words were like a thunderclap, exploding in my ears.
My heart sank, and a chill ran from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head.
Have we run out of medicinal herbs?
!
what does this mean?
This means that the disciples who were injured in the battle could only endure the torment of their injuries!
I turned around sharply and looked at a corner of the square, where many injured disciples were gathered. Some were clutching their wounds and groaning in pain, some were pale and had cracked lips, and some were even unconscious.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was nauseating.
Pharmacist Lin shook his head helplessly and closed his eyes in pain.
His lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
He slumped to the ground, covering his face with his hands, his shoulders trembling uncontrollably.
A sense of despair spread among the wounded, making the already oppressive atmosphere even more intense.
I felt a tightness in my chest, as if a huge rock was pressing on my heart, making it hard for me to breathe.
Just then, a shrill voice suddenly rang out: "It's over! It's over! We're all going to die here!"
I looked in the direction of the sound and saw Deacon Li standing in the crowd, his face pale. His voice trembled and was tinged with a sob, as if the end of the world was about to come.
"The Immortal Sect is definitely doomed this time! The remnants of the Thunder Demon King's forces are so powerful, we are no match for them! We will all die! We will all die!"
Deacon Li's voice grew louder and sharper, like a demonic sound drilling into my ears, making me feel uneasy.
I turned my head sharply, glaring at Deacon Li, my eyes practically spitting fire.
Damn!
What a coward!
Spreading such pessimistic remarks at this time will only make people more panicked and desperate!
I took a deep breath, trying to suppress my anger, and was about to reprimand Deacon Li when I suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind me.
"Report—" A disciple rushed over in a panic, his face pale and panting, "Immortal...Immortal...something terrible has happened..."
His voice trembled, tinged with fear, which gave me a sense of foreboding.
"What is it?" I asked in a low voice, suppressing my unease.
The disciple swallowed hard, trembling as he said, "Fairy Zhou...she..."
The disciple was out of breath, as if he had seen something terrifying.
"Fairy Zhou...she...she led a group of disciples...unwilling to obey your orders, and went out of the city to fight without authorization!"
what?
!
A surge of anger rushed to my head, and I could hardly believe my ears.
Zhou Xianzi is usually very composed, how could she do something so impulsive?
This is absolute nonsense!
"Nonsense!" I shouted angrily, my voice echoing across the square, drowning out the cacophony of shouts and cries of battle.
"Is she insane?! Going out now is practically suicide!"
My anxiety burned like a raging fire; I wished I could rush out immediately and grab her back.
However, the current battle situation is so critical that I cannot leave at all.
"Please calm down, Fairy!" General Zhao quickly advised. "The most important thing now is to maintain our composure and not lose our composure!"
I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.
I know General Zhao is right; now is not the time to act impulsively.
However, the thought of the safety of Fairy Zhou and her disciples made my heart feel like it was being torn apart.
"Fairy, what should we do now?" Pharmacist Lin also came over. His face was still pale, but his eyes were full of worry.
I looked around and found that many disciples of the immortal sects were looking at me with suspicion.
I know that although we won the last battle, my command was not perfect, and some disciples inevitably felt dissatisfied.
"Fairy, are we really going to listen to her? If it weren't for her misjudgment last time, we wouldn't have lost so many people!"
"That's right. After all, she's an outsider and doesn't understand the situation of our immortal sect. What gives her the right to give us orders?"
The disciples' discussions grew louder and louder, and their suspicious gazes stung my nerves like thorns.
I felt an immense pressure pressing down on my shoulders, making it hard to breathe.
Damn!
Now is not the time for infighting!
I gritted my teeth and tried my best to control my emotions.
I must do something to prove my abilities and earn everyone's trust!
I carefully observed the enemy's movements and found that although they were fierce, their formation was somewhat scattered.
A bold idea popped into my head.
"General Zhao, relay my order!" I said in a deep voice, with a hint of determination in my tone, "Select one hundred elite disciples to accompany me in a flanking attack on the enemy's rear!"
General Zhao paused for a moment, a look of hesitation appearing on his face.
"Fairy, this...this is too risky! The number of enemies is unknown. If we attack rashly, we might fall into an ambush!"
"There's no time!" I interrupted him, my tone firm. "The only way now is to catch them off guard! If we can disrupt their formation, we can buy the others a chance to catch their breath!"
General Zhao remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded. "Alright, I'll make the arrangements right away!"
Soon, one hundred elite disciples had assembled.
Holding my immortal sword, I stood at the very front of the group, my gaze sharp as I scanned the faces of every person.
"Everyone, the Immortal Sect is in imminent danger. We must fight to the death! I, Xiao Yao, hereby swear that I will lead you all to carve a bloody path through this crisis!"
My voice is full of power, inspiring everyone's heart.
The disciples raised their weapons high, shouted in unison, and their momentum was overwhelming.
"Kill!" I gave the order and charged out first.
We charged toward the enemy's flank like an arrow released from a bow, so fast that the enemy was caught off guard.
The immortal sword in his hand sliced through the air, leaving behind dazzling streaks of light as it reaped the lives of his enemies.
The enemy was caught off guard, and their formation was thrown into chaos.
The disciples of the immortal sect were greatly encouraged and fought bravely against the enemy, suppressing them.
"Kill!"
"For the sake of the Immortal Sect!"
Cheers, shouts, and the sounds of battle mingled together, creating a stirring battle song.
The glory enveloped me, filling me with immense pride.
Just as we were about to completely crush the enemy's flank, I suddenly sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching...
not good!
"Watch out!" I shouted a warning, but it was too late.
A dark figure appeared before me like a ghost, holding a gleaming dagger, aimed straight at my throat.
My first instinct was to dodge, but it was too late.
"Watch out—" Wen Chen's voice rang out through the sky, and then I saw his figure rushing towards me like a shooting star. Just then, a cold voice rang in my ear: "Xiao Yao, prepare to die!"
The sword light was as white as snow. The Azure Frost Sword in my hand danced with a cold gleam. Wherever it passed, the remnants of the Thunder Demon King's army fell like wheat being harvested.
My figure darted through the enemy ranks, like the Grim Reaper descending, reaping one fresh life after another.
"Kill! For the Immortal Sect!" I shouted, my voice echoing across the battlefield like thunder.
Inspired by my words, the disciples of the immortal sect were greatly encouraged and fought bravely like tigers descending the mountain.
The enemy's formation completely collapsed, and they began to rout and flee in all directions.
"Trying to escape? Not so easy!" I sneered, quickly forming hand seals while chanting incantations.
"Nine Heavens Thunder, heed my command! Thunder descend!"
In an instant, the weather changed, dark clouds gathered, and thick bolts of purple lightning descended from the sky, like roaring dragons, crashing down on the fleeing enemies.
"Boom boom boom!"
The deafening thunder roared through the heavens and the earth, and the flames from the explosions illuminated the entire battlefield as if it were daytime.
Wherever the lightning struck, the enemy was reduced to ashes, leaving no trace of their remains.
Upon seeing this, the disciples of the immortal sect erupted in thunderous cheers.
"We win! We win!"
"Fairy Xiao Yao is mighty!"
I slowly landed on the ground, and the Azure Frost Sword in my hand emitted a clear sword sound, as if cheering for me.
I looked around at the disciples of the immortal sect who had survived the calamity, and a great sense of accomplishment welled up in my heart.
I did it!
I led them to victory against a powerful enemy and protected the immortal sect!
"Fairy, you are truly amazing!" General Zhao walked up to me and said excitedly, "Thanks to you, we were able to escape danger!"
I smiled slightly and said modestly, "This is all thanks to everyone; I only did my part."
However, before my smile could fully bloom, it suddenly froze on my face.
A powerful aura surged in from all directions like a tide, instantly enveloping me.
The aura was icy cold and oppressive, making it difficult for me to breathe, as if a huge rock was pressing on my chest.
My expression instantly turned serious, and an ominous premonition rose in my heart.
This breath...
It's exactly the same mysterious power I felt in the secret room before!
"what happened?"
"What...what is this?"
The disciples of the immortal sect also felt this powerful pressure, their faces turning pale as they looked around in terror.
I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm.
I slowly raised my head and looked up at the sky. The once clear sky had been covered by dark clouds, and a cold aura emanated from the clouds, enveloping the entire Immortal Sect.
"Oh no!" I thought to myself, "That mysterious power...it...it's here!"
Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang in her ear: "Xiao Yao, do you think this is the end?"
