As long as they handed over the mountain pass, they would be able to keep their lives. At this point, everyone basically understood what was going on. There was no need to think about resisting. They just needed to think about how to fool them and get back alive.
The day passed smoothly, and all the surviving cultivators felt as though they had just escaped from the jaws of death.
Cultivators kept coming to ask when they would leave the mountain pass.
Wu Yang and Dalieba, the two captains, were at a loss. Until now, there was still no news from the Ming Ze Alliance. After another day, the cultivators they sent finally returned.
This person was a Heavenly Monarch. When Wu Yang and the other Dao Monarchs saw him, they knew that things were going to be troublesome. That person's face was ashen. When he saw Wu Yang and Dalieba, he said, "We can't leave. The Ming Ze Alliance ordered us to guard the mountain pass. The reinforcements will only arrive in ten days."
Everyone was dumbfounded. This was going to be a dead end. Wu Yang said in a low voice, "Didn't you report that we only have a few hundred people left?"
That Heavenly Monarch smiled bitterly and said, "I said it. I said it very clearly, but they didn't care at all. They directly gave the order. I, I couldn't resist."
Lei Xingfeng said, "Ten days? That means there are only nine days left? "
That person shook his head and said, "From the day I came back, they said it very clearly."
Immediately, there was a wave of curses. Wu Yang and Dalieba were silent. After a while, Wu Yang said, "What other news is there? When I asked you to go over, I specially asked you to pay attention to the other teams. What did you find out? "
That person said, "Yes, yes, I heard a lot."
Everyone started asking questions at once.
Wu Yang clapped his hands and said, "Quiet down, I'll ask!"
Everyone calmed down and stared at that person.
Wu Yang said, "We sent so many people to occupy the mountain pass this time. How many succeeded?"
That person said, "We are the only ones who succeeded! The other attacking teams all died in battle without exception. This incident caused a huge uproar. Many sects began to protest and were unwilling to carry out the mission. In other words, the second wave of cultivators is temporarily unable to set off. "
Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but ask, "Didn't the second team succeed?"
That person said, "A few teams did succeed, but they couldn't defend and were recaptured. After a few battles, they were basically exhausted."
Everyone was speechless. It was no wonder that the lower sects would retaliate. The Ming Ze Alliance had gone overboard. But thinking about how huge the Ming Ze Alliance was, even if they retaliated, what was the use? Everyone's mood became extremely heavy.
A Heaven Monarch said with resentment, "At most, I will quit!"
Da Lie Ba sneered and said, "Quit? You want to be a wild cultivator? Do you really think you can become a Daolord by yourself? Stop dreaming. Even if the Ming Ze Alliance doesn't kill you, do you think you will have a good life? Not to mention, the Ming Ze Alliance will punish your sect for this. "
Instantly, that Heaven Monarch lowered his head and didn't say anything else. Everyone knew that he said it out of anger, but they were really unwilling to accept it. This was too much.
Everyone's gaze fell on Lei Xingfeng. They wanted to hear his opinion.
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, "We are not that desperate yet. There is no point in thinking too much. Let's wait for 10 days. Maybe, I'm just saying maybe. The outsiders might not be ready. How can they attack so many mountain passes at the same time? I believe that they might not have so many soldiers!"
Everyone nodded and agreed that Lei Xingfeng's words made sense. However, some people still had doubts and asked, "If the outsiders have reinforcements, then this period of time is enough for them to gather. Once they decide to attack, we will definitely be the focus because we are the only team that has occupied the mountain pass!"
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "That's right. We are betting. We are betting that they won't be so fast. We will leave after 10 days."
Actually, everyone was not confident. Once they held on for 10 days, if the Ming Ze Alliance gave the order to hold on for another 10 days, they would be in trouble.
Lei Xingfeng said, "If we really can't hold on, everyone knows the consequences."
There seemed to be no other way out other than to die in battle. However, Wu Yang and Lei Xingfeng didn't care. At most, they would just leave. The two of them didn't feel any pressure. However, it was different for the others. They could only hold on with their lives. The consequences of escaping were too severe. If they weren't selfish, they wouldn't make such a choice.
Someone lamented, "We will die if we advance or retreat. The Ming Ze Alliance is forcing us to our deaths!"
Lei Xingfeng added lightly, "That's right. They are forcing us to our deaths!"
Everyone was stunned. Thinking about it, it made sense. How could the Ming Ze Alliance be like this? Everyone was filled with doubts.
Lei Xingfeng said, "Don't think too much. Our most important task now is to survive. Put everything else aside."
Wu Yang and Da Lie Ba began to assign tasks. They took turns to patrol. 10 days wasn't a long time, but it wasn't a short time either. They had to assign tasks to their subordinates, including guarding and scouting. They couldn't just wait for the outsiders to come out.
Therefore, under Lei Xingfeng's suggestion, the sentries were set up all the way to the canyon.
Lei Xingfeng took some time to return to the Mirror Realm. He discussed the situation outside with Gucci. After arranging things and setting up the coordinates of this continent, he returned.
Wu Yang stood guard outside. Lei Xingfeng returned less than two hours ago, so no one noticed.
Lei Xingfeng said, "Is everything okay?"
Wu Yang shook his head, "Nothing will happen for now. Even if the outsiders attack, we need time to prepare."
Lei Xingfeng said, "Everything is fine at home. Master told you not to worry."
Wu Yang smiled, "Of course it's fine. They don't need to come out and fight. They can cultivate step by step and reach a high level."
Lei Xingfeng said, "There will be a lot to fight in the future. After seeing the Ming Ze Alliance, I don't have much confidence. They are starting to consume their strength, but we are still worried about growing stronger."
Wu Yang said, "They have developed for many years, but we have only developed for a few years. The difference is too big. We can't compare! But we have the Mirror Realm. We will develop sooner or later. "
Lei Xingfeng said, "I don't know if the Ming Ze Alliance has the Mirror Realm. If they do …"
Wu Yang shook his head and said, "That's not certain. Anyway, with the Mirror Realm, we won't reveal it. I didn't hear any news about the Mirror Realm here. There isn't even a hidden space here. It's a very interesting place."
Lei Xingfeng said, "If we can't stop the outsiders this time, we can only return to the Mirror Realm. I didn't expect the Ming Ze Alliance to use this method to consume extra people. It's too ruthless."
Wu Yang said, "There are only so many resources. If the old doesn't go, the new won't come. It's just that this kind of method is annoying."
Lei Xingfeng said, "It's not just annoying. It's disgusting."
Wu Yang said, "We are now small characters. We can't affect the Ming Ze Alliance at all. Hehe, A Feng, it's good that we can protect ourselves. We can't afford to offend such a big monster!"
Lei Xingfeng said, "Forget it. The Ming Ze Alliance is consuming their own strength. It has nothing to do with us. Let's go out and see the situation."
The two walked out of the room and went to the other side of the mountain pass. They looked at the valley in the distance. At this time, a few Dao Lord Patriarchs and Heavenly Lords walked over, including Da Lie Ba and Ning 'e Aba.
Da Lie Ba said, "The good news is that the outsiders haven't come yet. The bad news is … there might not be any reinforcements even after ten days."
Lei Xingfeng said, "No reinforcements?"
A Dao Lord Patriarch said, "A group rebelled. They attacked the protectors and caused a chain reaction."
Lei Xingfeng said in surprise, "There was still a rebellion!"
Da Lie Ba said, "It's a mess now. I heard that there are more than 100,000 people rebelling. Although the scale isn't big, the reaction made the Ming Ze Alliance not dare to suppress them. They're still fighting, but I think there will be negotiations soon."
Lei Xingfeng said, "So no one cares about us now?"
Da Lie Ba said, "That's right!"
Lei Xingfeng said angrily, "Then what's the point of guarding? Let's retreat too. "
Da Lie Ba said, "If we don't guard the mountain pass, we'll be joining the rebellion."
Wu Yang smiled bitterly. "How unlucky!"
They couldn't advance or retreat.
Wu Yang gritted his teeth. "Let's guard first. We can only hope that the outsiders will come later. We can only wait!" His goal was to sneak into the Ming Ze Alliance, but if he couldn't complete the mission and became expendable, he definitely wouldn't do it. There was no threat to him or Lei Xingfeng now. Thus, the only choice was to guard first.
Lei Xingfeng agreed. "Let's guard first. If we can't guard it, then we'll talk!" His goal was the same as Wu Yang's, so it wasn't strange for him to make such a choice.
The others thought about it and agreed. They weren't on fire yet, so they could only guard first. Perhaps the Ming Ze Alliance would resolve the conflict soon and send people to replace them.
A Dao Lord Patriarch pointed at the valley and said, "Look, look! Our hidden sentry! "
Just this sentence made everyone nervous. A black shadow rushed over at an incredible speed. Dust rose behind it, and the ground shook. In just a few minutes, the hidden sentry had already broken into the defensive formation. However, he had a small restriction token made by Lei Xingfeng, so the restriction ignored him.
He came in front of everyone. It was a Heaven Lord Realm expert. He said, "Many, many outsiders have gathered in the valley and are coming towards us!"
They were finally here!
Their hearts, which had been on tenterhooks, suddenly relaxed. Everyone actually felt a sense of relief. The feeling of waiting was actually not a good feeling. Now that the real enemy had come, they felt more at ease. No matter what, they had to resist for a while first. With the restriction formation, they felt a little more confident.
