"Isn't it too risky to lure four beasts away at the same time?" the crowd asked doubtfully.
"Even if we take half of our men with us, we still have three hundred and sixty thousand people. We can't possibly lure two beasts away with so many people. If we can't retreat quickly, it will only result in greater losses," the Great Elder said.
"But we don't have to let all three hundred and sixty thousand people lure the beasts away. Perhaps we can let some of them pretend to kill the beasts.
That way, we can also dispel their suspicions that we are escaping from the outer court, "Luo Keya said.
"That's right, that's a good idea. Let everyone think that we are only trying to kill these two beasts. That way, they won't be distracted! "Wu Li said.
"Can't we bring more people?" Wei Qianrou asked.
She felt that with so many people staying in the outer court, wouldn't it be better to bring them out directly?
"We can't leave too few people behind. Otherwise, it will easily arouse their suspicions. Once they are distracted, it will be difficult for them to lure the beasts away for us, "the Second Elder Zhuang Min explained.
"If that's the case, let's not delay any further. There's no need for us to choose another date to act. Let's do it now!" Wei Chenfei said.
"What do you think?" The Great Elder looked at the others.
"I think that now is the best time, especially for those people from the Gao Residence. If we gather everyone at another time, they will definitely keep an eye on us.
But now, they definitely won't think that we are escaping from the outer court! "Gao Ruyuan said.
"Alright, there's no time like the present. Let's do it now!" The few elders clearly had no objections to this suggestion.
Most importantly, everyone wanted to leave the outer court as soon as possible. This was definitely a place of trouble.
If they didn't leave today, they might not have the chance in the future.
Thus, the elders quickly gathered everyone again.
When everyone saw that the beasts didn't attack them, their emotions slowly calmed down. Naturally, it wasn't a problem for them to gather again.
Very quickly, the people from the seven residences finished gathering. They split into three groups and headed in different directions. One group headed towards the east gate, while the other two went in different directions.
"Young Master, those people have left!" The people from the Nine Great Clans were in disbelief.
The other side had gathered the power of the entire dynasty to attack them, but now they had been forced to retreat without even moving a finger.
At this moment, the way everyone looked at Cheng Yu was filled with admiration and worship.
They felt that their Sacred Lord was getting wiser and wiser. In this world, perhaps only their Sacred Lord could defeat nearly a million cultivators in such a calm manner. Who could rival such boldness?
"Retreating is retreating. However, these people seem to have another objective!" Cheng Yu hovered above Gao Residence, watching the troops from the seven mansions slowly retreating as he voiced his doubts.
"Why do you say that, Young Master?" Chen Ruiyang looked at the army in the distance and didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong.
"The seven Principal Elders are divided into seven manors, and these seven manors are all located in different directions. Logically speaking, if the 7 Prefectures' armies were defeated, they should have returned to their respective territories.
But look, these people are divided into three groups. Furthermore, every single one of them had seven prefectures' armies. Isn't this very strange? "Cheng Yu said.
Although they were separated by a certain distance, he could clearly see the entire process of the Seven Prefectures regrouping.
"There is such a thing? However, the group with the least number of people seemed to be heading towards the East Gate! As for the other two groups, I can't tell where they are going Dongfang Heyan also looked at those people and said.
"Seems like these guys haven't given up on causing trouble!" Feng Yichang said.
"Young Master, do you want us to keep an eye on those guys? These guys obviously have ill intentions!" Situ Dehai said.
"No need. As long as we guard the two exits, they won't be able to cause any trouble!" Cheng Yu shook his head and said.
After these days, he had already believed that the White Sun Palace only had these two exits. If there was another exit, the seven Principal Elders would have already left the palace with their people instead of bringing an army to attack the Gao Residence.
Therefore, when he saw so many people appearing here, he felt even more relaxed.
"Young Master, is this really going to be fine?" Chen Ruiyang looked at the direction in which the three groups of people were heading towards and said worriedly.
These people obviously had other goals. If they didn't set up any defenses, they might not be able to defend against them in the future.
"Don't worry. Let's wait here for a while and see what they are up to!" Cheng Yu said.
Right now, he didn't know what these people were up to, so he could only wait and see.
"I hope these guys won't cause any big trouble. Otherwise, with just the few of us, it will be very difficult for us to stop over a million people!" Nangong Bohao said.
Cheng Yu didn't say anything. He just waited quietly. He also wanted to see what these guys were up to.
"Roar!"
After a while, the people from the nine great families suddenly heard some roars.
"This is … the sound of strange beasts?" Ji Zhengyang was shocked.
"Young Master, could it be that these guys really want to force their way out?" Chen Ruiyang said to Cheng Yu.
"Seems like they can't hold it in any longer!" Cheng Yu nodded.
Compared to the people from the nine great families, he clearly understood the situation better. The strange beasts were under his control, so he could naturally sense that the emotions of the two strange beasts at the east gate were changing.
"Young Master, these guys are really strange. The seven mansions' men are divided into three groups. If they want to attack the east gate, why are the people heading towards the east gate the least? Could it be that they think that those people are enough to open the east gate?
Then where are the other two groups going? "Situ Dehai asked doubtfully.
"They can't be thinking of attacking the west gate at the same time, right?" Feng Yichang said.
"No, the other two groups aren't heading towards the west gate. They should have another goal. Furthermore, if they were to attack the east and west gate at the same time, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. There's no need for that. "Situ Dehai shook his head.
"Roar!"
It was at this moment, the golden tiger seemed to have sensed that its comrade was being attacked by the enemy. It couldn't help but tremble its body as it roared towards the sky
Seems like these people want to use the same trick again. That group of people wants to lure the two strange beasts away from the east gate. As for the other two groups of people, they want to take the opportunity to escape from the outer court! When Cheng Yu saw the golden tiger, he suddenly thought of something and said loudly.
"That's right. These guys are really cunning. They don't plan to fight to the death with the two strange beasts at the east gate. Therefore, the number of people in this group is the least. This way, they can advance and retreat quickly, and it would be easier to lure the strange beasts over! "Everyone came to a realization. They felt that this possibility was very high.
