Upon hearing those words, all the elders present turned pale.
Lin Chen also frowned tightly, lost in thought.
"Sect Leader, this... how is this possible?"
"Didn’t Senior Brother Wan cover the rear and die in battle..."
The speaker was Li Zhenqian.
The disappointnt in his eyes was hard to hide; Senior Brother Wan’s death while covering the rear had already hit him hard.
What’s more devastating, his death turned out to be aningless...
The elders and disciples who retreated also perished?
Thinking of this, Li Zhenqian was already losing composure, his heart like dead ashes.
Wang Changchun glanced at Li Zhenqian lightly and reprimanded:
"Zhenqian, you are a prodigy of our Changchun Sect. After Senior Brother Wan’s death... only Lin Chen and you are left to carry the flag for the younger generation... If you can’t stay composed like this, how can the future of Changchun Sect be entrusted to you?"
Hearing this, Li Zhenqian fell silent.
At this ti, Array Peak Master spoke up:
"Senior Brother Wang, over the past few years, although we’ve had defeats in our battles with the Demon Sect, the losses have been within acceptable limits."
"But this ti, why such huge losses... How could we have not received any intelligence?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen also nodded slightly.
He understood the situation of the three frontline cities.
Even though the Demon Sect was stronger, breaking the three frontline cities in just a day or two was too difficult...
Even more exaggerated, the sect only received intelligence after losing control of the front line entirely.
Could it be... that those Core Formation garrison commanders didn’t even have ti to relay ssages?
Hearing this, Wang Changchun’s face also looked sowhat grim, and he slowly said:
"To be precise, the fall of the three frontline cities... the death of hundreds of thousands occurred in just half a day!"
"Because that Blood Pupil made a move..."
Blood Pupil!
Upon hearing this na, all the elders present changed their expressions.
Only Li Zhenqian still looked puzzled and asked:
"Blood Pupil, is he that strong?"
Hearing this, Wang Changchun could no longer bother to explain.
He just gave Array Peak Master a look.
Seeing this, Array Peak Master quickly pulled him behind, then whispered:
"The old demon Blood Pupil, or you could call him Blood Pupil True Man..."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenqian imdiately shut his mouth.
The title "True Man" is a symbol of a hegemon, nearly invincible, in Qing State.
At this ti, Lin Chen’s master Han Jihai spoke.
He gently stroked his long beard and asked, sowhat puzzled:
"Old demon Blood Pupil... Wasn’t this old guy close to the end of his lifespan?"
"How could he suddenly appear and personally destroy three cities?"
At this ti, Wang Changchun said:
"I received information from the Demon-Suppressing Temple..."
"It said that the bloodline of the old demon Blood Pupil, Ghost-eyed Child, was killed... which is why this old monster was enraged."
Upon hearing this, the elders’ reactions varied.
Few people knew about the death of Ghost-Eyed Old Monster.
Besides Lin Chen, only those martial monks from the Demon-Suppressing Temple knew.
Presumably, the Ghost-Exorcising Sect must have suppressed this news.
"Ghost-Eyed Old Monster is dead? Then this is the perfect ti for us to counterattack the Demon Sect!" So elders were eager to try.
"No wonder, we haven’t heard anything about this old monster for the past two months..."
Just Ghost-Eyed Old Monster alone at the front line could match ten Golden Core Cultivators.
Now that Ghost-Eyed Old Monster is dead, although the three frontline cities have fallen, it seems acceptable?
Upon hearing this, so elders nodded in agreent.
While so elders were puzzled:
"Ghost-Eyed Old Monster... That guy was nearly invincible below the Nascent Soul level..."
"Who killed him, could it be that other forces from Qing State sent a Nascent Soul Cultivator?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Changchun shook his head and said:
"When the three frontline cities fell, that old demon Blood Pupil had already released the news, offering three million Spirit Stones... for Xu Shi’s life!"
"Indeed, this was done by Taoist Friend Xu of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect."
Upon hearing this, several Peak Masters who had t "Xu Shi" looked amazed.
They felt even more in awe of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.
They all knew that a few years ago, Xu Shi had entered the relics of the Golden Yuan Sect.
In just a few years, he at most reached the mid-stage Golden Core, right?
And he could kill Ghost-Eyed Old Monster?
Seeing the varied expressions of the surrounding elders, Lin Chen felt a bit guilty, rubbing his nose.
After Wang Changchun revealed all the true circumstances at the frontline, he then said:
"Although Ghost-Eyed is dead, we are still at a disadvantage against the Demon Sect..."
"Especially since that old demon Blood Pupil personally made a move. I’m afraid within a year, the entire Purple Smoke Realm might fall..."
"Therefore, withdrawing the disciples from Purple Smoke Country is also a helpless decision, we must rge with the Celestial Pill Sect and hold our ground at Fog Country!"
Upon hearing this, the elders around nodded one after another.
At this ti, Wang Changchun said:
"Therefore, all elders may need to be sent to the frontline next, to Fog Country to prevent further advances from the Demon Sect..."
"This may be dangerous, I wonder how the elders view this?"
Saying this, Wang Changchun glanced around.
"Sect Leader, whatever do you an? We are disciples of the Changchun Sect, it is our duty to protect the sect!"
So elders were devoted to the sect and were willing to die for it.
But so elders avoided eye contact, lacking much allegiance to the sect.
Wang Changchun noted all this and said:
"Fellow elders, you all know what kind of person that old demon Blood Pupil is..."
"If the Righteous Alliance is defeated, I’m afraid there will be no peace within ten thousand miles. At that ti, it will be difficult for everyone to protect themselves."
"Besides, while the Demon Sect has a Nascent Soul True Man, don’t think our Righteous Alliance doesn’t."
As he spoke, Wang Changchun revealed a aningful expression.
The other elders were taken aback, their hearts filled with a sudden guess.
At this ti, Wang Changchun said:
"Alright, elders, please prepare for the upcoming frontline battles..."
