The main reason why He Sui dared to attack the Sword Sect with such fanfare was because the Sword Sect was too weak. With the Black Emperor Sect's strength, it would not be too difficult to take down the Sword Sect.
It was precisely because He Sui felt that it would be easy to take down the Sword Sect and would not make the Black Emperor Sect pay too much of a price that he decisively attacked the Sword Sect.
Otherwise, if he had to pay a huge price to take down the Sword Sect, He Sui would probably have to weigh the pros and cons.
This was because if the Black Emperor Sect suffered too great of a loss, it would be unknown if they could continue to remain as a first-rate force, let alone become one of the top ten Ling Tian Sects. At that time, even if they took down the Sword Sect, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Compared to the stable relationship between the top ten Ling Tian Sects, the competition between the first-rate forces was extremely intense.
This was because they had already surpassed the ranks of the first-rate forces and had the possibility of becoming one of the top ten Ling Tian Sects. As such, who would not want to become an Ling Tian Sect? Therefore, a first-rate force like the Black Emperor Sect had to consider carefully before doing anything. It was very likely that they would fall out of the ranks of the first-rate forces if they were not careful.
Originally, He Sui thought that the attack on the Sword Sect this time would be a sure thing and they would be able to end the battle easily.
However, from the looks of it now, He Sui had to admit that he had underestimated the Sword Sect. With the Sword Sect's strength, the Black Emperor Sect would definitely have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to take it down. To be honest, the Black Emperor Sect could not afford to pay such a price.
Although the Sword Sect's treasure was very tempting, He Sui was willing to give up the treasure if he had to pay the price of crippling the Black Emperor Sect.
However, He Sui was already in a difficult situation. The Black Emperor Sect had come aggressively. If he retreated now, wouldn't he become a joke?
Seeing that the battle had entered a stalemate, He Sui was furious and helpless. He really wanted to take down the Sword Sect in one fell swoop. However, based on the current situation, it was probably impossible. Even if he could take it down, the price that the Black Emperor Sect had to pay would be at least a few times or even a dozen times more than what he had expected.
Seeing the experts of the Black Emperor Sect fall one by one, of course, the Sword Sect also suffered many casualties.
However, even though they had suffered the same number of casualties, He Sui's heart was still bleeding. This was because they were in different positions.
The Sword Sect was fighting with their backs against the wall, so it didn't matter even if they were completely annihilated. However, the Black Emperor Sect was different. It was impossible for the Black Emperor Sect and the Sword Sect to end in mutual destruction.
Currently, the Sword Sect had the same mentality. Didn't the Black Emperor Sect want to take down the Sword Sect? Alright, then both sides would suffer. At most, the Sword Sect would be annihilated. However, the Black Emperor Sect would definitely fall from the ranks of the super first-rate forces. At that time, let alone charging into the top ten Ling Tian Sects, it was hard to say if they could even protect themselves.
At this moment, the Sword Sect was willing to sacrifice themselves to drag the King of Hell down from his high horse. It was also because of the Sword Sect's mentality that He Sui was extremely furious. However, there was nothing he could do.
The battle was still going on. Seeing the number of casualties from both sides increasing, He Sui's mood became more and more uncomfortable.
Even though Cang Xing was already at the end of his rope, He Sui still didn't feel any joy. This was because the price that the Black Emperor Sect had paid had far exceeded He Sui's expectations.
Just as He Sui was extremely furious, Xiao Chen, who didn't join the battle, suddenly spoke. "Sect Leader He Sui, can we stop and talk?"
Xiao Chen took the initiative to speak with He Sui. This was actually an act of helplessness. This was because if the battle continued, a Martial Marquis from the Black Emperor Sect might die here. However, at the same time, Cang Xing probably wouldn't be able to escape this calamity.
Seeing that Cang Xing had already reached his limit, Xiao Chen naturally couldn't just watch him die on the spot. Moreover, Xiao Chen had already achieved his goal. He used his actions to tell the Black Emperor Sect that if they wanted to take down the Sword Sect, they had to at least be prepared to lose their teeth.
In this way, there was a possibility for both sides to negotiate.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, He Sui's expression was extremely ugly. However, he still shouted. "Stop."
Just like Xiao Chen, He Sui didn't have any intention of continuing the battle. It was completely because the Sword Sect's strength had surprised He Sui. He Sui couldn't possibly pay such a huge price in exchange for a Sword Sect.
If the battle continued, his Black Emperor Sect would lose another Dao Realm Almighty. Therefore, He Sui immediately chose to stop.
Along with He Sui's shout, the experts from the Sword Sect and Black Emperor Sect stopped one after another. Then, Xiao Chen and He Sui came to the front of the two sides and stood opposite each other. Both sides were sizing each other up.
Looking at Xiao Chen before him, apart from feeling that Xiao Chen was young, He Sui also felt a strong sense of fear. This junior was indeed not simple. He had really underestimated him previously.
He Sui said coldly without any expression, "Sect Leader Xiao Chen, your Sword Sect is now like the sun setting in the west. Join my Black Emperor Sect and we'll charge into the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects together. Wouldn't that be great?"
He Sui's tone and attitude had undergone a subtle change. After all, the Sword Sect was no longer a fat piece of meat in the mouth of the Black Emperor Sect. It was meaningless to be as arrogant as before.
He Sui wanted to rope in the Sword Sect. However, Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "Sect Leader He Sui, there's no need to think about letting the Sword Sect join the Black Emperor Sect. Everyone in the Sword Sect would rather die in battle than to change sects."
Xiao Chen's attitude was very unyielding. Of course, this was also because the Sword Sect's strength had skyrocketed. If the Sword Sect was still the same as before, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't speak to He Sui in such a manner.
Moreover, if He Sui didn't have the strength to make He Sui fearful, he probably wouldn't waste his breath with Xiao Chen based on his character.
It was because it was extremely difficult to take down the Sword Sect now. Therefore, He Sui chose to negotiate with Xiao Chen.
Without strength, you didn't even have the qualifications to negotiate. After all, the other party could easily destroy you, so what right did they have to negotiate with you? Without the corresponding bargaining chip, the negotiation was naturally impossible.
He knew very well what He Sui was thinking. He also knew that He Sui didn't want to continue fighting because the end result would only be a lose-lose situation for both sides. Such an outcome wouldn't benefit either the Swords Gate or the Black Emperor Sect.
A cold light flashed in He Sui's eyes when he faced Xiao Chen's unyielding attitude. "Xiao Chen, do you really think that my Black Emperor Sect can't do anything to your Sword Sect?"
"I believe that the Black Emperor Sect can destroy the Sword Sect. However, Sect Leader He Sui, can you bear the price? If you insist on fighting, I think that the Black Emperor Sect will probably fall from the ranks of the super first-rate forces. "Xiao Chen said indifferently when he heard this.
