As one of the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects, the Heavenly Sect had many disciples. Naturally, it was impossible for all of them to stay in the sect. As one of the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects, the Heavenly Sect had many disciples. Naturally, it was impossible for all of them to stay in the sect.
Many of the disciples were either out on missions or training. It could be said that the Heavenly Sect's disciples could be found in almost every province in the Great Thousand World. Now that these disciples were out, they had become Xiao Chen's targets. Moreover, the most troublesome thing for Yang Chen was that it was very difficult to protect these disciples. It was impossible to take care of all of them.
Moreover, the caravans that the Heavenly Sect had sent to the Dan Valley, the Armament Sect, and the Talisman Sect had also been robbed by the Sword Sect.
Although the loss was not too great, it still made Yang Chen furious.
Yang Chen's eyes flickered with a cold light as he said coldly, "Xiao Chen, I have underestimated you. However, this is what makes it interesting. If you are too weak, then it will be boring for me to play with you."
Xiao Chen's counterattack was out of Yang Chen's expectations. At this time, the only thing Yang Chen could do was to urgently summon the scattered disciples of the Heavenly Sect back. As for how many of them could return safely, it was up to fate.
As for using the same method to deal with the Sword Sect, it was impossible now because in these three days, Xiao Chen had already summoned all the disciples of the Sword Sect back to the Sword Sect.
The reason why Xiao Chen had to wait three days before taking action was because he wanted all the disciples of the Sword Sect to return safely. Therefore, it was delayed for three days.
Unfortunately, Yang Chen did not expect this at all during these three days, so he did not make any response. At this time, it was impossible to besiege and kill the disciples of the Sword Sect.
As for directly attacking the Sword Sect, Yang Chen did not have such thoughts for the time being because no matter if it was the Sword Sect or the Heavenly Sect, they were not ready to fight again. The conflict this time was entirely because of Yang Chen's demonstration against the Sword Sect.
He could only order the disciples of the Heavenly Sect outside to return as soon as possible. After giving the order, Yang Chen looked in the direction of the Sword Province and muttered coldly, "Xiao Chen, let's wait and see."
Yang Chen could already guess that the disciples of the Heavenly Sect outside would suffer heavy casualties this time. However, Yang Chen could not stop this because he could not send too many people to protect the disciples outside. Otherwise, the headquarters of the Heavenly Sect would be empty. At that time, it would give Xiao Chen an opportunity to attack Headquarters' empty Headquarters would give Xiao Chen Chen an opportunity..
He made a decision immediately. He would rather give up on the disciples who were training or doing missions outside to ensure the safety of the Heavenly Sect Headquarters.
The news had already been sent out by the Sword Sect, and soon, news about the disciples of the Heavenly Sect was also sent back to the Sword Sect. The Sword Sect did not go back on their word to the people or forces who provided the information. Once the information was verified to be accurate, they would pay 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.
One after another, the whereabouts of the Cotian Sect disciples were exposed to the eyes of the Swords Gate. At the same time, the many experts of the Swords Gate, who had long been prepared, moved out one after another, and began to ambush the Cotian Sect disciples who were out to fight.
Normally, no one would dare to provoke the disciples of the Heavenly Sect when they were outside alone or in groups of three to five. However, they were powerless against the attacks of the Sword Sect.
Without the protection of the sect, the disciples of the Heavenly Sect were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in the face of the experts of the Sword Sect.
In just one day, more than a hundred disciples of the Heavenly Sect were killed.
The news was sent back to the Heavenly Sect. In the cave, Xiao Chen, Cang Xing, and the others were sitting together and drinking wine. Li Ke said with a smile.
"Awesome. Let's see what the new Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sect will do. Now that we have the whereabouts of thousands of disciples of the Heavenly Sect, if he doesn't send reinforcements, none of them will be able to escape."
Previously, when the Heavenly Sect launched a sneak attack on five cities, Li Ke and the others were all furious. Now, it was finally time for the Sword Sect to counterattack.
To be honest, when Xiao Chen first announced this plan, even Cang Xing and the others did not expect it at all. This was because Xiao Chen did not set the target within Tianzhou, but outside of Tianzhou.
However, judging from the current situation, Xiao Chen's plan was obviously successful. Yang Chen was not prepared at all. Now, it was up to Yang Chen to make his own choice.
This was only the first step of Xiao Chen's plan. The second step would depend on how Yang Chen dealt with it.
If Yang Chen sent too many experts to protect the disciples outside, then Xiao Chen would lead the experts of the Sword Sect and directly attack the headquarters of the Heavenly Sect.
He did not want to destroy the Heavenly Sect in one fell swoop, but at least he wanted to make the Heavenly Sect lose face. After all, his own headquarters had been attacked by others. This was obviously not a glorious thing. Moreover, the losses would definitely not be small.
They were waiting for Yang Chen's decision. Unfortunately, Yang Chen did not take the bait. Just as Xiao Chen and the others gathered together and waited for the Heavenly Sect's response, a Sword Head hurriedly walked in and bowed respectfully to Xiao Chen.
"Sect Leader, the Heavenly Sect has not made any moves for the time being. They have not sent anyone to receive the disciples."
An entire day had passed since the Sword Sect took action, but there was still no response from the Heavenly Sect. Yang Chen also did not send any experts to receive the disciples.
Hearing the Sword Head's report, Cang Xing and the others could not help but feel a little disappointed. Because of this, Xiao Chen's plan to attack the Heavenly Sect's headquarters would be completely ruined.
However, Xiao Chen smiled at this time. He was not discouraged at all. Instead, he said indifferently, "It's reasonable. If Yang Chen can't even see through this, then there's no point."
Xiao Chen seemed to have known that Yang Chen would see through his plan. Therefore, when the second step of the plan failed, Xiao Chen did not take it to heart.
After saying this, Xiao Chen looked at the Sword Head and said, "Pass down the order. Kill all the Heavenly Sect disciples on the list. Don't let any of them return to Tianzhou."
Since Yang Chen did not take the bait, they could only stop while they were ahead. Killing some of his disciples was not a loss.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Sword Head respectfully nodded and left the courtyard.
Not long after this Sword Head left, another Sword Head hurriedly ran in. His face had a hint of excitement, and he even forgot to salute Xiao Chen as he hurriedly said.
"Sect Leader, we caught a big fish …."
The leader of the swordsmen had indeed been a little rude, but Xiao Chen didn't care too much about it. On the contrary, he was more curious about the big fish that the leader of the swordsmen had mentioned.
With a smile on his face, Xiao Chen asked, "Why are you so excited?"
