"Uh, is there still this matter?" Jiang Xue noticed the smiles on their faces stiffen. They did not expect that there were such stories within the Holy Divine Gate. However, since this matter involved the three top leaders of the Holy Divine Gate, they feared that even if they wanted to inquire about the details, they would not be told the truth.
If the emotions on the Holy Divine Gate side could remain stable because they had not received news of the Heavenly Binding Sect Master’s misfortune, then on the other side, Xuanmen was filled with pessimism and anger throughout the Army.
"Jiang Xue, you mentioned earlier that you saw a manifestation of Divine Punishment there. Is that true?"
Jiang Xue sighed and said, "I only saw a phenomenon where the sky split open and a sword of light descended, but I do not know if that is your Xuanmen's Divine Punishment from the Mystical Path. However, North Heaven, the leader of the Evil Extermination Sect, can certainly testify to this. He has been a longtime comrade of your True Navigator; although he is not from Xuanmen, his judgment on this matter should not be wrong."
The Elder Tian Xuan's face showed sorrow: "When we set out this time, we originally thought we would stabilize our divine clan's position for a thousand years. We even aimed to uproot the Demon Clan entirely. Unexpectedly, not only did we fail to achieve our goal, but our own Master Zong was also harmed. We will not rest until we avenge this grudge!"
"We will not rest until we avenge this grudge!"
Jiang Xue was startled and quickly said, "Elders, while it is indeed necessary to avenge the True Navigator, now is absolutely not the right time. The Game God Sect is colluding with the Demon Clan; just after a great battle, they are likely on guard against our counterattack. If you go for revenge now, first of all, your strength is insufficient. Although most elder-level experts in Xuanmen have not fallen like in Holy Divine Gate and have retreated during this blockade, after the fall of True Navigator, you no longer have top experts capable of contending with Brahma Demon King. What basis do you have to defeat Brahma Demon King or their Ancient Beasts?"
"Then does this great grudge just end here?" several young and impetuous new elders shouted angrily.
"Of course it will not just end here." Jiang Xue coldly glanced at them. For some reason, even though she was younger than them, her gaze made several young elders feel as if their innermost thoughts were being seen through. It felt like a bucket of ice water had been poured over them, extinguishing their anger.
"The True Navigator treated our Dragon City with great respect. If anyone says that this grudge can just end here, then our Dragon City will never agree! However, this time some revenge for True Navigator has already been taken; there is no need to rush for the rest. Think about why True Navigator would rather sacrifice himself to ensure your safe retreat. It was to leave some incense for Xuanmen! So that when the Demon Clan runs rampant, you can rely on Xuanmen to withstand their fierce attacks! Not to send you all to your deaths!"
After hearing these words, some disciples of Xuanmen could not lift their heads.
Seeing that the radical forces within the Sect had been suppressed, the Elder Tian Xuan nodded secretly and then looked at Jiang Xue and asked: "I just heard Jiang Xue say that our sect master's revenge has already been partially avenged; I wonder what this means?"
Jiang Xue replied: "Let’s not mention that this time True Navigator used your Xuanmen's supreme secret technique, Heavenly Punishment Sword. Under such a mutual destruction technique, do you think the Demon Clan would not pay a price? On another front, our Dragon City’s separated Army has already joined forces with Lord Wang Long. They have now begun a fierce assault on their stronghold in Demon’s Swamp. They have already achieved two major victories and killed countless Demon Lords from the Demon Clan. If they can completely break through it, it would be a significant loss for the Demon Clan—enough to offset this major victory. It would not be an easy task for them to establish another base after spending hundreds of years! Isn’t this already avenging part of True Navigator?"
"Ah! Wang Long has already achieved such results!"
"When our Dragon City’s communication techniques return, we only know that the Dragon Head has already launched a full-scale attack. At least, I personally think the issue of whether we can capture it is not very significant. We have already witnessed that this time the Demon Clan is not just represented by the Brahma Demon King and the Ten Ancient Beasts he controls; their main army is definitely heading in our direction. In this case, their stronghold must be relatively empty, and our people are likely to have succeeded. I have already sent our messenger back to investigate, and I believe we will have results soon."
The elders and warriors of Xuanmen were all shaken by these words. They finally heard something uplifting. For a moment, Jiang Xue could clearly feel the gratitude from everyone in Xuanmen towards them. Even those divine beings who had previously misunderstood and distanced themselves from them now regarded Dragon City as their true ally.
"Elder Tian Xuan, there is one thing I am very concerned about. The Holy Divine Gate still has the Fire God and Water God overseeing matters. Now that your True Navigator is not present, who should take charge? Will there be any power struggles?"
Although Jiang Xue's question was very direct, they did not show any impatience. These individuals understood the current situation of Xuanmen. On one hand, relying solely on strength to fend off the Demon Clan is insufficient; they also need someone capable of organizing that strength. On the other hand, there had indeed been considerable opposition within their ranks regarding closeness to Dragon City, so some concerns were inevitable.
Elder Tian Xuan quickly explained, "According to the arrangements made by our Sect Master before, if anything were to happen to him, then Wuxuan Senior Brother would act as the temporary Sect Master. Since Elder Wuxuan is currently unavailable, it falls to me to take charge. And please rest assured, Jiang Xue. Although my prestige within the Sect is not yet sufficient to command respect and there are some who disagree with my ideas, within Xuanmen, since such an arrangement has been made, there will be no objections from them unless it comes to the next elder meeting. Moreover, everyone in Xuanmen is very grateful for Dragon City's righteousness and appreciates it greatly. I can say that the alliance between Dragon City and Xuanmen will not change in the future!"
"That sounds excellent. Once we have any new actions, we will inform you in advance."
Jiang Xue was very satisfied with Elder Tian Xuan's response.
Of course, it would be even better if they could prevent Wuxuan, who had always coveted Dragon City, from returning.
Wang Long turned around swiftly and struck out with his right palm, sending forth a wave of Spiritual Essence; however, unexpectedly, it hit nothing but air. The newcomer moved extremely quickly and had already dashed past both of them towards the front.
It seemed that his understanding of the situation was even better than that of Wang Long and his companion; he managed to find the right path even while charging forward recklessly.
Dao Lord Wu Jue would not simply watch him rush ahead; he pursued closely behind. Wang Long followed closely as well.
The two of them took turns covering each other, ensuring that if anyone attempted a surprise attack from any direction, they would not escape their notice. Should any situation arise, their reaction speed would be the fastest.
At the very least, it ensured that a skilled individual would appear.
Within that passage, it seemed as if they were confident that no further traps would be encountered, and their advance was almost recklessly bold. They even looked down upon basic concealment techniques.
Although the two had yet to see the true face of the figure ahead, Wang Long and his companion sensed his identity through the fluctuations of Spiritual Essence he left behind.
It was indeed the mysterious person who had previously forced the Nine-Headed Demon Lord to his demise.
Regarding the secrets of the Demon Clan's treasury, the two likely knew less than he did. Therefore, if he was also present in this Secret Vault, it could very well indicate that the "secrets" they needed to find were hidden within this Secret Vault!
"Magic-Restraining Electric Net!" Wang Long felt that they had not closed the distance to the mysterious figure at all and realized that this person's strength was formidable. He immediately summoned an electric net, relying on his mastery of Spiritual Energy Fluctuation to target the path behind him and shot it out directly.
In response to Wang Long and Dao Lord Wu Jue's "ambush," the mysterious figure simply shifted his body and struck down with a sword, splitting the electric net in two.
His movements exuded a sense of ease as if he were handling something trivial. It was clear he possessed the demeanor of a master.
However, during this brief moment of distraction, Wang Long and Dao Lord Wu Jue had already closed in significantly.
