Wan Huayu had come with Shangguan Xianyan, Cai Jinglun, and Shangguan Yiyi, each of them representing a medieval inheritance with strong backgrounds, and in the Kunlun Realm, any one of them would be a figure of the clouds.
Their faces were ugly, obviously, at noon, all of them had been to the neighborhood of Winning Sand City and saw the scene of the savage beasts eating people.
That scene was unforgettable to them for the rest of their lives.
A conversation took place between the positions of the human race and the barbarian beasts, and the human race turned into livestock in general, becoming food for the barbarian beasts. Any human race cultivator, too, could not accept this fact.
Wan Huayu opened the door and directly stated the purpose of coming to visit him, hoping to join forces with him to rescue the remaining Human Race cultivators.
Zhang Ruochen stood opposite the four with his hands behind his back, appearing very direct as he said indifferently, “Let’s not mention the disparity in strength between the various clans of the Barbarian Beasts and the Human Race, even if both sides are equal in strength, what makes you guys think that I will go and rescue those Human Race cultivators?”?Wan Huayu’s eyes narrowed, and a sharp aura emanated from his body as he said, “We are all human cultivators, and we must be united in order to fight against the barbarian beasts. If, everyone only thinks of their own interests, the entire Human Race will be like a scattered sand, and sooner or later, they will go to extinction.”
Zhang Ruochen was not moved by this and appeared to be calm.?Shangguan Xianyan also stood out, without a sultry aura on her body, instead, she was a bit pensive and said, “Divine Son, the savage beasts led by the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon are recklessly humiliating our Human Race, treating humans as food and as dolls.”
“Now, whether it’s the righteous path, or the evil path, all human cultivators should unite and battle them. It’s naturally best if we can save some human cultivators. Even if we can’t save them, we still have to make those savage beasts pay a heavy price.”
Zhang Ruochen smiled faintly and stared at Shangguan Xianyan, who was standing on the opposite side of the room, and said, “As I recall, you shouldn’t be a woman with bravery. Just who gave you the backbone to think that you can make dozens of savage beast clans pay a heavy price? Since you have become the leader of the Blood God Sect, you should be responsible for the lives of the disciples of the Blood God Sect, rather than leading them to their deaths.”
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Ruochen did not think highly of them.
Nowadays, the savage beast clans that had gathered outside Winning Sand City were close to thirty, with more than twenty powerful beast kings.
For each of these clans, there was also a large number of savage beasts that possessed Half-Saint level battle power.
The number of all the savage beasts combined exceeded ten times the number of human cultivators at the base of Winning Sand City.
What was the difference between the human race clashing head-on with the barbarian beast clans and sending them to their deaths?
Cai Jinglun coldly stared at Zhang Ruochen, hummed, and said to Shangguan Xianyan and Wan Huayu, “Those Beast Kings are right, he’s just a turtle with a shrunken head, and you’re actually hoping that he’ll make a move?”?Zhang Ruochen was clearly at ease, a pair of mesmerized eyes just staring at the yellow sand drifting in the distance, as if he couldn’t hear Cai Jinglun’s taunts, and as if he was waiting for something.
Wan Huayu and Shangguan Xianyan both sighed and shook their heads, full of disappointment towards Zhang Ruochen, and without saying any more, they left first.
Among the four, the Shangguan Family’s number one expert, Shangguan Yiyi, had rarely spoken.
When he finally left, he however spoke to Zhang Ruochen, “In order to fight against the savage beast horde, the cultivators of the Evil Dao, the Devil Dao, and the Imperial Court, all of them are willing to cooperate and are ready to join forces to fight together. Yet you are afraid of death and do not dare to face the challenge, someone like you is destined to not achieve anything.”
After saying this, Shangguan Yiyi also left.
Those cultivators who followed Zhang Ruochen’s side all fell into silence.
Their gazes, from time to time, would stare over toward Zhang Ruochen, revealing a look of anticipation.
This was because they knew that Zhang Ruochen was not an indifferent person, and was definitely thinking of a foolproof plan, and was not really afraid of a battle with the Barbarian Beast Clan.
Sun Dadi had already woken up and sat on the ground in silence.
Suddenly, he shook his neck, grabbed the iron stick, slung it over his shoulder, and marched in the direction where Wan Huayu, Cai Jinglun, and the others had left.
“Where are you going?”Zhang Ruochen asked.
Sun Dadi didn’t turn his head back and said in a cold voice, “The paths are different. I don’t want to continue to follow a fearful person, I believe that there will always be some human heroes who are not afraid of challenges and death, I’m going to fight alongside them.”?Zhang Ruochen said, “If you go to fight alongside them, you will only die nine deaths.”
“So what if I die nine times? If it wasn’t for the generations of sages of the Human Race, who went ahead and fought against the savage beasts, paying the price of their lives and blood, how could they be able to fight for a piece of land for the Human Race to survive in the Kunlun Realm? Even if I die in battle, I will still pull a group of cushions.”Sun Dadi’s attitude was resolute.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, still fixed on the yellow sands in the distance, suddenly, his ears twitched as he finally waited for a message to come from tens of thousands of miles away.
Just then, the corner of his mouth hooked slightly, revealing a smile as he said, “Stay! You won’t be able to save anyone if you fight alongside them, instead, you’ll cause more human cultivators to die. If you want to save people, in fact, there is still a way.”
Sun Dadi immediately stopped his steps, turned around, and looked over towards Zhang Ruochen, who was standing in the distance, revealing a puzzled expression as he said, “Do you really have a way?”
Those other human cultivators all stood up, revealing eager expressions as they stared towards Zhang Ruochen in unison.
Xiao Hei stood beside Zhang Ruochen and grinned, revealing a sneer, “Do you think that Zhang Ruochen really hasn’t thought about saving people? In the World of Picture Scrolls, Zhang Ruochen had long ago carefully discussed this matter with this Emperor. In the end, we came up with a reasonably feasible solution.”?”What method?”Sun Dadi asked.
Xiao Hei said without slowing down, “A hard fight is definitely a dead end, so we can only outwit them.”?Sun Dadi was very anxious and asked again, “Outwit? In the end how to outsmart?”
Xiao Hei stretched out a paw, signaling Sun Dadi not to be anxious, saying, “First of all, this Emperor has to ask you a question. How is it that the savage beast community, which was originally a scattered mass, was able to unite and work together against the human race?”
Sun Dadi’s fingers scratched his scalp, his eyes lit up, and he said, “Because of the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, it was it that utilized its great strength to deter the beast kings of the various clans.”?”That’s right.”
Xiao Hei nodded and said, “That’s why Zhang Ruochen thought that as long as he could find the weakness of the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, he would naturally be able to save those human cultivators with ease.”
“The two Boundary Sons combined could only fight the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon to a draw. Such a powerful being also has a weakness?”Sun Dadi said.
“As long as it is a living being, it is also bound to have weaknesses.”
Xiao Hei laughed and added, “The Heaven Swallowing Devil Dragon has a very close relationship with Princess Bai Li of the Jiu Li Cat Clan, and it is said that that Princess Bai Li likes to coalesce into a human form and possesses unparalleled beauty. Since, the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon captured thousands of human cultivators, why don’t we go and capture that White Li Princess?”
Sun Di Di immediately revealed a joyful expression and thought carefully for a moment, then, clapping his hands together, he exclaimed, “Haha! You guys were actually able to come up with this move, it’s really awesome, I can’t help but admire it. Next, let’s see, in the eyes of the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, is it the lives of thousands of human cultivators that are important, or is it Princess Baili’s life that is important?”
Little Black rolled his eyes and said, “You think Princess Bai Li is that easy to capture? Princess Bai Li is also a Swift Ancient Remnant Seed, and is quite powerful, ranking 78th in the Half-Saint List. With your cultivation, can you block a single finger of hers?”
Sun Di Di sucked in a breath of cool air and immediately shook his head.
Little Black added, “Furthermore, the Bai Li Clan has a rather powerful innate Saint Art called the At Hand Step. Once you execute this kind of Saint Art, you can reach a thousand miles away by taking a single step. Even a Saint realm being would not be able to leave her behind. How easy is it to capture her?”
Little Black had a deep connection with the Jiu Li Cat Clan, and thus, knew them very well.
Sun Di Di’s eyes rolled and hehehe laughed, “Other cultivators can’t keep her, but the Boss will definitely be able to keep her. The Boss is a Time and Space Transmitter, I’m afraid that Princess Baili won’t be able to escape him even if she’s faster.”
Xiao Hei laughed and said, “Didn’t you just say that the paths are different, why are you starting to call Boss now?”
Sun Di Di’s face, which was already red, now, became even redder.
He immediately clasped his hands and slightly arched his body, saying, “Boss, just now it was me who misunderstood you, please forgive me.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong, there’s no need to ask me to forgive you.”
Zhang Ruochen added, “Earlier, I didn’t tell you the reason why, simply because, it’s still uncertain if I can find Princess Baili’s trail. If, however, we can’t find her whereabouts, everything would be empty talk.”
“Have you found Princess Bai Li’s whereabouts now?”Sun Dadi asked.
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, “Just a moment ago, the Grand Secretary and the Second Secretary sent back news that they had already found Princess Bai Li’s trail and were gradually narrowing down the scope of their search.”
It was only at this point that Sun Dadi realized that there was no sign of the two vultures, the Great Sikong and the Second Sikong, and it turned out that they had already rushed off to search for Princess Bai Li a long time ago.
Nowadays, Sun Dadi was already impressed with Zhang Ruochen, not only was he thoughtful, but he was also unperturbed by changes, and even more so, he was not an indifferent person. It was only that the way he thought about problems and solved them was different from others.
Such a character was worthy of following him to the death.
“Boss, I’ll go with you to capture Princess Baili, one more person, one more strength.”Sun Dadi said.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and took out a copy of the White Tiger Divine Dew, handing it to Sun Dadi, then, patting him on the shoulder, he said, “Grab the time to refine it, with it, it should be able to help you survive your first Paramount Sainthood Tribulation.”
Sun Dadi’s current cultivation level was just one step weaker compared to the Beast King.
Once he crossed the first Quasi-Saint Tribulation, he would immediately have the power to fight against the Beast King.
Zhang Ruochen took Little Black with him and rushed over to the direction where the Grand Sacred Spirit and the Second Sacred Spirit had sent their message, preparing to combine the power of the three and the beast to capture Princess Bai Li.
Meanwhile, the human cultivators in Winning Sand City were consolidating their forces, deciding to launch a third great battle against the barbarian beast community tonight.
Outside the city, Wan Huayu and the others had also consolidated an army of human cultivators and began to set up and plan, working together with the human cultivators in the city, wanting to deal a heavy blow to the barbarian beast community.
This night, it was destined to be a bloodbath…?
