In contrast to the proactive attacks of the Thousand Soul Demon Sect, the main hall of the Thousand Beast Sect was filled with a feeling of impending doom and panic.
The joy and confidence gained from previous victories seemed so fragile in the face of such a huge disparity in strength.
“Sect Leader! Important information! The Thousand Soul Demon Sect is conducting a massive mobilization! That old Soul Demon has declared that he will personally lead an all-out attack to raze our Thousand Beast Sect to the ground!”
A disciple in charge of intelligence rushed into the main hall, his voice shrill and distorted due to extreme fear.
This news was like a meteorite hitting a calm lake, instantly causing huge waves.
“Full scale attack?! Are they crazy?”
“The Soul Demon itself is moving a level nine Immortal Lord, how can we possibly stop it?”
“There are still so many Demon Sect elders, and dozens of experts in our Immortal God Realm are finished!”
“I wish I had known if I hadn’t provoked them”
Despair spread like a plague among the crowd, and some of the less determined disciples even turned pale and started shaking uncontrollably.
Even some of the elders who had weathered many storms had their lips pursed and their eyes glazed over, as if they could already see the tragic scene of sect destruction and rivers of blood.
All eyes finally fell on the blue-robed young man who sat at the head of the table and remained silent throughout the event.
Shi Yan and Ying Wu stood beside David, their fists clenched so tightly that their nails almost dug into the flesh. They placed all their hopes, even the survival of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, on this seemingly ordinary senior who had repeatedly created miracles.
The Sky Fissure Sect Leader had a pale face and his throat was dry. He turned to David and said in a deep voice as if filled with lead: “Senior, the Demon Sect comes with great power and its strength far exceeds ours. Facing them head-on is the same as throwing eggs at a stone.”
“What do you think should we temporarily avoid confrontation, disband our troops, and retreat into the depths of the mountains?”
David slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were as deep as an ancient well, calm and undisturbed, as if the crisis out there that could cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split did not raise any waves in his heart.
He tapped his fingertips lightly on the armrest of his chair, producing a rhythmic and steady “tap-tap” sound. This voice seemed to have a strange magical power, gradually quieting the increasingly loud commotion and whispers in the hall.
“What’s making me panic?”
David spoke calmly, his voice was not loud, but it was clearly audible to everyone, bringing an undeniable calm.
“If the enemy is strong, then avoid their main force. If they go full force, their base will definitely be vulnerable. This is common sense, so what is there to be afraid of?”
