The members of the Destruction Sword Sect were proud and arrogant.
But they had a clear understanding of their own strength, and did not really think that they were invincible.
If it was a 50-50 contest, they would definitely fight.
In fact, even if they were at a slight disadvantage, they still believed in fighting to the death and carving out a bloody path.
But if it was clear that there was little hope, and if they were not forced to the point of no return, Yun Shoufeng, Lin Zhong, and the others would not take the initiative to fight to the death.
The right choice was to cultivate and improve themselves, and then fight it out with the other party.
They were just bloodthirsty, but not so crazy that they had lost their rationality and judgment.
In today's battle, Chang 'an had proven that Chu Yaoguang alone, with the Seven Luminaries Sash, could suppress the entire Destruction Sword Sect.
Considering the other masters in Chang 'an, as well as the unfathomable Lord of Chang' an whose Divine Sense was nowhere to be seen, it was obvious that the current strength of Chang 'an was beyond what the Destruction Sword Sect could handle.
Then the Destruction Sword Sect had to consider a problem.
If Chang 'an helped the Senluo Sword Palace and attacked the Wu Ming Domain, what would they do?
Of course, Chang 'an might only protect the Senluo Sword Palace once in Yan Huang, and would not cross the distance to help them attack their home.
But the Destruction Sword Sect had to be wary of the possibility of Chang 'an helping.
If they waited until Chang 'an helped the Senluo Sword Palace, they might not be able to escape unscathed. There would definitely be casualties.
The best plan was undoubtedly for Lin Zhong to quickly contact Yun Shoufeng and the others, and lead the Destruction Sword Sect to retreat from the Wu Ming Domain first.
Where there was life, there was hope.
However, this would definitely be a heavy blow to the prestige and cohesion of the people.
The Destruction Sword Sect liked to take risks, and it was hard to say whether they should take this gamble.
But for the Senluo Sword Palace, they had a chance to return to the Wu Ming Domain.
In truth, the majority of the Senluo Sword Palace naturally hoped to return to the Wu Ming Domain.
It was not entirely because of the feeling of living under someone else's roof in Yan Huang.
It was more because of their native feelings.
All the Senluo Sword Palace disciples were from the Wu Ming Domain.
Coming to Yan Huang and leaving their homes was not a distance of thousands or tens of thousands of miles, but across the starry sky.
For many of the Sen Luo Sword Palace disciples with low to mid cultivation, it was impossible for them to return to the Wu Ming World by relying on their own cultivation.
For many cultivators, it was hard not to feel homesick at such a distance.
However, Feng Qi, Fu Yuting, and the other senior leaders of the Senluo Sword Palace weren't in a hurry to make a decision.
Now, whether they should return to the Ming World or not, they had to consider the views of Chang 'an City.
If Chang 'an intended to expand into the Wu Ming Realm, they obviously had no position or power to stop it.
How to adjust their position was something they had to foresee first.
Fu Yuting had already mentally prepared herself for this when she brought her people to the Yan Huang Realm.
Although Feng Qi had just found out about this, he quickly thought of it even without Fu Yuting's reminder.
The Extermination Sword Sect needed to be clear about who was the one who would decide the fate of the Wu Ming Realm.
The Senluo Sword Palace also had to recognize this point.
"Let's contact the other disciples of our sect first. Let's gather together in Yan Huang."
Feng Qi instructed Fu Yuting, "Then arrange for people to go to the Wu Ming Realm to investigate the situation. We will make a decision later."
Fu Yuting nodded. "You also need to recover from your injuries."
The disciples of the Senluo Sword Palace had scattered and fled.
Only a minority had followed Fu Yuting to the Yan Huang Realm.
A significant portion of them had probably perished.
The priority for Fu Yuting and the others was undoubtedly to gather the other survivors and preserve the vitality of the Senluo Sword Palace.
When the time came, they would choose capable people to go to the Wu Ming Realm to gather information. Clearly, they also hoped to find the senior experts of the Senluo Sword Palace among the survivors.
Feng Qi's recovery was more important. As for Fu Yuting, regardless of whether her relationship with Ao Kong was awkward, she had to stay in Chang 'an City to act as a link between the two sides.
This was crucial to the future of the Senluo Sword Palace.
From Fu Yuting's own selfish point of view, it was naturally good to be able to reunite with Ao Kong and Ao Ying.
However, she had to hurry and gather the other survivors of her sect first.
Fu Yuting and Feng Qi did not mention it. Similarly, Zong Tianxuan and Ao Kong did not mention whether the Chang 'an City would help the Senluo Sword Palace take back the Wu Ming Realm.
They brought Fu Yuting and Ao Kong back to Yan Huang to meet Zhang Dongyun.
"You know the rules here?"
Zhang Dongyun looked at Feng Qi and asked calmly.
Feng Qi clasped his fists. "I am under the protection of the Chang 'an City. After being saved by the Chang' an City, I will follow the rules of the Chang 'an City for the rest of my life and repay the City Lord for today's kindness."
Zhang Dongyun nodded slightly. "Those who follow the rules of the Chang 'an City will be tolerated by the Chang' an City. It is the same for everyone."
"Yes." Feng Qi hesitated.
Zhang Dongyun glanced at him. "The Destruction Sword Sect has attacked the Chang 'an City. They are already enemies of the Chang' an City. Even if they come to surrender, they have to give at least two gifts."
Two gifts …
Feng Qi heaved a sigh of relief. "You are right, City Lord."
The so-called two gifts were undoubtedly the heads of Yun Shoufeng and Lin Zhong, the two Immortal Lords of the martial way.
The Destruction Sword Sect had just lost Gao Liang and many other top experts. It could be said that they had suffered a great loss.
Their current foundation mainly rested on the two leaders, Yun Shoufeng and Lin Zhongzheng.
If Feng Qi, Yun Shoufeng, and Lin Zhong were not included, the Senluo Sword Sect would not have to worry about the Destruction Sword Sect.
Zhang Dongyun looked down at Feng Qi, a faint smile on his lips.
This was a man who knew what to do.
Feng Qi had many thoughts that he had suppressed in his heart. He had not even communicated with Fu Yuting.
However, Zhang Dongyun was able to see through his thoughts with a single glance.
Feng Qi was the Senluo Sword Palace Lord and the former top expert of the Wu Ming World. In terms of martial way talent, cultivation, and strength, he was naturally not bad.
But as a leader, he was relatively mediocre.
His temperament was relatively peaceful, and he had a tender heart for talent. That was why he had nurtured a tiger and allowed Yun Shoufeng of the Destruction Sword Sect to rise.
Of course, from another perspective, it could also be said that Feng Qi was confident and magnanimous enough to accept the challenge of an inferior person.
But in Zhang Dongyun's view, Feng Qi tolerated the rise of others because of magnanimity, but tolerated the rise of the Destruction Sword Sect because of his lack of consideration.
To a certain extent, this sword technique was the perfect counter to the Senluo Sword Palace's sword inheritance.
Even if one wanted to use this opportunity to sharpen his own sword path, he should still control it to a certain extent.
After all, the rise of the Destruction Sword Sect was accompanied by too much killing.
Even a king who did not empathize with the power of the people would think that it was a great loss of life.
Feng Qi was obsessed with swordsmanship and had a tender heart for talent. If he showed mercy to the Destruction Sword Sect, he would be heartless to even more people.
He could still deal with Yun Shoufeng, but Lin Zhong's unexpected rise would cause him to fail.
