Chapter 255 - 255 Who Can Save Us

255 Who Can Save Us

The current situation could only mean one thing: they had all fallen and had no chance to react or respond. From this, it could be seen how terrifying their enemy was.

Looking at the light of these people’s natal lamps, it was estimated that they would not be able to last long. If this dragged on, they might not even have the opportunity to help.

“Do you want me to watch them all die?”

They might still have a chance to live if someone went to provide backup. If nobody tried, they would most likely be doomed.

If the lips disappeared, the teeth will grow cold. If these people died, the Dao Seeking Sect’s fate wouldn’t be any better. Now that the competition for resources and benefits was so fierce, they couldn’t afford to lose so many powerhouses at once.

The other sects or forces would be like wolves that had smelled blood and would immediately come over to tear a piece of meat from their bodies. At that time, it would really be a pack of wolves surrounding them.

“Why don’t we just let the City Lord of Changping organize a rescue?” someone suggested.

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him rolled their eyes.

“Changping hasn’t even recuperated yet. With their strength, they’re probably just food for the demonic beasts if they attempt to help.”

If Changping didn’t have the strength to send reinforcements, the only choice was to send people from Jingdu. However, they had already sent a portion of their people. If they continued to send more people…

“No, let’s not talk about whether we can save those people or not. What if the people we sent to help are also detained by the demon beasts? Wouldn’t that make things worse?”

“That’s right, such a large sect base can’t be without a strong powerhouse to guard it. When the time comes, it’s hard to guarantee that there won’t be some rascals who will take the opportunity to cause trouble.”

The price to pay this way was too heavy and risky, because the people who sent reinforcements might not even come back. At that time, they would suffer a double loss, and they wouldn’t even have a place to cry.

Therefore, the idea of sending reinforcements again was not feasible. Moreover, they did not have such great ability. Currently, there were only two grand elders in the main camp.

“Why don’t we ask for outside help? Join forces with the others?”

This method wasn’t impossible. After all, there were experts from other sects and powers who were also detained by the demonic beasts. They could join forces with them and head to Changping to provide support.

However, when the Dao Seeking Sect members went out to ask around, the responses they received were disappointing.

Those people also had their own concerns, so they didn’t dare to take risks. Until now, they still hadn’t reached a conclusion.

After all, their strength was clear for all to see. If they could save those people, it would naturally be for the best. However, if they couldn’t, and someone in Jingdu attacked their sects, wouldn’t that make things worse? they wouldn’t even be able to protect their sect’s base.

The sect leader of the Dao Seeking Sect was so angry that he smashed a few cups.

“These people all have their own plans. They want us to do more so that they can send less people.

“Sect master, weren’t there other sects that didn’t participate in this?”

With the third elder’s reminder, they realized that some sects had tried to protect themselves and did not choose to go to Changping. It would be a good choice to ask them for help.

In order to express his sincerity, the sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect personally paid a visit. Although the power he went to couldn’t compare to the seven great sects, it was still considered outstanding in Jingdu.

His words were tactful. He didn’t say that the mission was to save people, but he said that he would need more help.

After learning of his intentions, he was rejected. After all, these people were not fools.

“I heard that so many experts of the Dao Seeking Sect have been killed, including the grand elders of the Misty Illusory Manor and a few other powerful sects. Even now, we don’t know if they are dead or alive. If we send more people, wouldn’t they not be able to return?”

“Moreover, our sect’s strength is clear. Even if I want to save them, I have the will but not the ability. With just these few experts, I really can’t afford to waste any more energy. I can’t help even if I want to. Please don’t take offense.”

The Dao Seeking Sect leader’s expression immediately became stiff.

How did these people know?!

As if he could read his mind, the man continued, “The capital is abuzz with this matter. It’s all over the streets.”

After saying that, he revealed a somewhat sympathetic expression.

The Dao Seeking Sect leader’s face turned grim. After all, this wasn’t something to be proud of. It could even be said to be embarrassing, so only the sects that participated knew.

Knowing them, they would definitely not publicize it everywhere. If it was just to see other sects make a fool of themselves, it was not necessary. After all, their own people were among those who were lost.

Only a fool would do something like killing 1000 enemies and losing 800 of their own. But now, even the sects that didn’t go to Changping knew about it!

“Sect master, please return. If you are all powerless, what can a small sect like mine do?”

He spoke politely, but the determination in his words would not change.

The sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect couldn’t continue to stay here and suck up to him. He could only leave in embarrassment. If he hit a wall here, he didn’t need to think about the other sects. They would definitely have the same excuse.

“Who exactly spread the news?!”

His face was red with anger. He didn’t know which idiot had done this.

“If the sect master and the others don’t agree, what should we do now?”

At this point, the third elder suddenly thought of someone.

“I do have a candidate, but…”

The third elder stammered, and the others quickly said, “The situation is urgent now. Third elder, please speak your mind.”

“It’s just that I had some quarrels with this person earlier. I’m afraid that he won’t agree. However, if there’s a way, only this person can save them.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The people of the Dao Seeking Sect looked at each other, not understanding who he was talking about.

On the other hand, the sect master revealed a thoughtful and somewhat embarrassed look.
