Chapter 97: The Demeanor of An Jia's Disciple
Bai Yang's meaning is very clear. If they let the people of An Jia escape from the secret realm, then all their efforts would be in vain, not to mention that they would also face An Jia's crazy revenge.
But as long as the people who are settling down here are left behind, they can take advantage of the fact that the settlement has not yet reacted before going out and catching them off guard. The outside has already planned carefully, just waiting for them to go out, and then they can take action.
Chu Tianying and Chen Ruyu both hesitated, they had boarded a pirate ship, now wanting to get off was difficult.
It has to be said that Bai Yang's words are very persuasive, and the fact is as he said. With the Bai family as the main attacker, it's not the best approach. They have fewer people, to say nothing of their weak strength.
Unlike them, both countries have come from royal families and elite members of various families.
Chu Tianying and Chen Ruyu exchanged a glance, nodded slightly without leaving any trace. Chu Tianying then spoke up: "How about this, the top experts from our three sides gather together, launch a comprehensive attack on the mountain valley, strive to solve the An family's people in the shortest time."
Chen Ruyu spoke coldly: "An Su is mine."
An Su Su and Chen Ru Yu were listed as the two great genius beauties of the Three Kingdoms, which made Chen Ru Yu always feel resentful. She thought that there could only be one genius beauty in the Three Kingdoms, and that was her, Chen Ru Yu. An Su Su didn't have the qualifications to be on par with her. And today, she would prove this to everyone.
"Bai Yang hastily said: 'Miss Chen, don't take her life.'"
Chen Ruyu let out a cold snort and said: "Bai Yang, at this time, you're still here being sentimental about her. Do you really think it's good to spare her life?"
Bai Yang caught the sarcasm in Chen Ruyu's tone and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger, so he coldly said: "This is my business, there's no need for you to interfere, just do as I say."
Chen Ruyu stood up with a shout, angrily saying: "Bai Yang, what are you? What qualifications do you have to point fingers at my affairs? If you want to spare her life, I'll make sure she dies."
Bai Yang's face suddenly turned bright red, in terms of age, he was older than Chen Ruyi, but in terms of strength, he was one level lower than Chen Ruyi, because after Chen Ruyi came in, there were opportunities, so his strength was promoted to the late stage of martial arts.
In terms of origin, the other person is a royal princess by birth, while he is just the eldest son of a family. Putting aside the fact that Bai's family is the main family, Bai Yang can't compare to her at all. The problem now is that in this secret realm, Bai Yang still hasn't gained enough confidence to stand up for himself.
Chu Tianying hastily mediated, saying: "You two, we are now on the same line as ants. If you two want to fight again, Anjia people won't need to deal with it."
Bai Yang had no choice but to descend from his pedestal, and could only let out a cold snort, saying nothing more.
Chen Ruyu also turned her face away and ignored Bai Yang.
"Alright, let's just disperse and let the An family leave. We don't have much time left, less than a day. If you two continue to fight like this, it's not worth it."
Bai Yang and Chen Ruyu had no choice but to turn around again and return to the negotiating table.
Bai Yang spoke first, saying: "I agree with Tianying brother. The three families will work together to organize a team of experts to launch a comprehensive attack on the mountain valley. Strive to flatten the mountain valley in the shortest possible time."
Chen Ruyu let out a disdainful cold snort, and seeing Chu Tianying's eyes flash, she didn't say another word, merely listening.
Chu Tianying nodded in satisfaction and said: "Alright, it's settled then. Everyone go back now, choose your best men, and launch a direct attack in half an hour."
In the valley, apart from a dozen or so top-notch experts at the entrance of the valley, there were less than fifty people left inside. These were all young members of the An family, and they were all at the Wu Shi boundary cultivation level.
This time, nearly a hundred direct and indirect disciples of the An family came in, but now only about half are left. A small part died under the danger of the secret realm, but more people died under the harm of the White Family and the Two Nations Alliance.
Ansu wore a white dress, her face filled with a sorrowful expression. Even someone as cold as she was couldn't help but be affected by the tragic scene before them. The scene was too tragic; nearly one hundred people had entered, but now only half remained in this mountain valley.
Others have died, but in hundreds of years, Anjia has never experienced such a painful lesson.
No one could have imagined that the White family would join forces with two countries to launch a brutal massacre against the An family, catching them off guard and resulting in heavy casualties.
But what moved An Su most was that when she was ambushed, the people of the An family prioritized her safety above all else. Everyone, even if it meant paying with their lives, wanted to protect her. Two clansmen had even died defending her against swords and knives, which filled her with sorrow.
At this time, An Su Su began to reflect on how she had been so cold and distant towards her clansmen before. However, when faced with life and death, they were willing to take swords for her. She felt that she had wronged them too much in the past.
Even some of their tribesmen had never spoken a word to An Su, yet they were willing to sacrifice themselves for him, which had a profound impact on An Su.
"Even if we all die, we must hold on until the end of time. Soso is our family's future and absolutely cannot be let to have anything happen to her." Just as Ansu was immersed in grief, a quarrelsome voice came into her ears from not far away.
Over there, the host of the meeting was An Shizi. After listening to everyone's speeches, An Shizi was very moved. The An family has been able to exist for hundreds of years, not without reason. It's because of everyone's unity that the An family will continue to survive as it always has.
At this moment, An Shizi misses Tang Song so much. If Tang Song were here, he would never be treated like this, being chased and beaten to death by others.
"Where is Tang Song?" They had been here for six days, and almost everyone in Anjia had gathered together, but no one had seen any sign of Tang Song. It was only on the first floor that An Su saw him.
Even some of An Jia's disciples thought that Tang Song had already died in the secret realm, but An Shizhi didn't believe it. With Tang Song's fighting power, it was impossible for him to fall in the secret realm. Even the killer of the late Wu Shi wasn't a match for Tang Song, and the danger in this secret realm wasn't that great for him.
"Will he go to the third floor?" An Shizi thought to herself.
Suddenly, this idea burst out in his mind and couldn't be suppressed. With Tang Song's personality, it was very likely that he had gone to the third layer.
If he went to the third floor, An Shizi couldn't guarantee that Tang Song wouldn't encounter any danger. After all, the number of people who have been to the third floor can be counted on one's fingers, and only two people have come out from inside in hundreds of years. The only thing these two predecessors of the An family said after coming out was that it was too terrifying.
The monster inside is too powerful, unless you haven't encountered it, encountering it means death. Even a three-stage early-stage monster is far from what they can contend with. If they hadn't run fast, I'm afraid these two would have fallen into it as well.
"Crown Prince, say something!" The person beside him saw that An Shizi had not spoken a word, sitting there stupidly with an ever-changing expression, and couldn't tell what he was thinking.
An Shizi came back to his senses and said: "You guys say, will Tang Song go to the third floor?"
"Impossible?" As soon as An Shizi's words fell, someone doubted, "Didn't you say that Tang Song only had the combat power of a late-stage Wu Shi? Can he break through the defense of the transmission light column?"
An Shizi said: "I also dare not confirm, the first time he was assassinated by an assassin, I saw it with my own eyes, that was a late-stage martial artist's killer. The second time he was assassinated by an assassin, I couldn't confirm how high the assassin's strength was. However, I guess, it definitely won't be lower than the first time, and even higher, Bai Jianming wouldn't be so stupid."
"So I'm guessing that the true fighting strength of Tang and Song is at least at the level of a Martial Artist's Great Perfection, or even reached the realm of Martial Spirit." An Shizi boldly guessed.
"Impossible!" An Shizi had just spoken when someone retorted, "How could he possibly have the combat power of a Wu Ling realm? After all, his cultivation is only at the initial stage of a Wu Shi!" The cultivation that Tang Song had shown everyone before entering the tower was indeed only at the initial stage of a Wu Shi.
"Some people's combat power can't be measured by their cultivation. Techniques, martial skills, these are all factors that change one's combat power. Tang Song has a powerful master behind him, this is something everyone knows, but no one knows what level of technique and skill Tang Song cultivates, so everything is possible."
"What I'm worried about now is that Tang Song has gone to the third floor, will there be any danger? If not, his master is not by his side, who can go and rescue him?"
"Isn't that right?" One of An Jia's disciples spoke up, "If Tang Song falls inside, wouldn't our An family have offended the White family for nothing?"
"It can't be said like that, anyway, Tang Song's master is still outside. Since Tang Song has already agreed to ask his master for help with our household move, it shouldn't go wrong. Such a person, having spoken, won't go back on their word, or else they would be violating the heart of martial arts." Another disciple of the An family retorted.
An Shizi nodded and said, "That's right, everyone knows that in a few more months the national goods will be sorted out again. Whether our An family can keep the ancestral foundation of Anshan country depends on Master Tang Song."
"The Crown Prince, I think we should discuss the Tang and Song dynasties later. Now is a time of crisis, who knows when the three-family allied army will attack us, what should we do?" suggested a more mature disciple of the An family.
"What else can we do? When the enemy comes, we'll fight to the death! Even if we die, we'll take someone down with us!" A young disciple of the An family stood up and shouted loudly.
"With your abilities, you can fight to the death, but who can't? However, do you want all of our Anjia's elite disciples to die here? These people are the hope for Anjia's future. Without them, even if we manage to protect Anshan Country, how will it continue on?" The mature Anjia disciple scolded the young man.
The young man's face turned bright red as he argued, "Even if we all die, we must hold on until the time is up. Su Su is the future of our An family, and absolutely nothing can happen to her. And also, Crown Prince Da Ge, he is the next ruler of our An Shan country, and absolutely nothing can happen to him either."
