Peerless War God

"Yes, let's go. Since we can't hide, we have to face them. If Little Spirit Island really can't protect us, then let's do it." The old man sighed and said.    

In fact, he already had the idea of giving up in his heart, because he knew a reason. Even if he was lucky enough to hide this time, what should he do next time?    

It couldn't be that he wanted Xu Fang and the other disciples to once again risk their lives to go hunting in the outer seas. That would be too dangerous.    

This time, he already had a disciple who would die forever. The old man really didn't want to continue with his white hair turning black. This kind of feeling was simply too uncomfortable and painful.    

This was probably the most tragic thing in the world.    

"But, Master, is there no chance at all? I really don't want to give up. " Xu Fang gritted her teeth and said stubbornly.    

Little Spirit Island was very important to her. It was almost equivalent to half of her life.    

If Little Spirit Island was not protected, then to her... It was equivalent to having no home to return to. Moreover, in order to maintain the existence of Little Spirit Island, they had already paid too much, and even Senior Brother Ming had unfortunately died in the hands of the evil cultivators.    

No matter what, she was unwilling to give up so easily.    

The old man looked at Xu Fang, his eyes filled with pain as he sighed. He said, "Silly child, even if you are unwilling, what can you do? That is the Dou Family, one of the four great families of Baishi City. We can't beat them. Rather than struggling fearlessly, we might as well let go of them. This can also be considered a form of relief."    

To the old man, this was indeed the case.    

In order to maintain the continuity of the Profound Truths Sect, he had put in a lot of effort over the years. It could be said that he had expended countless efforts. There was only one goal, and that was to maintain the Profound Truths Sect until there was a turning point.    

Unfortunately, up until now, no one had been able to learn and comprehend the profound arts of the Profound Truths Sect. In the end, they could only be lost, and not even a single cultivator who had the chance to break through to the Tribulation Transcender Realm had been able to do so.    

From this, it could be seen to what extent they had fallen.    

"But..." Xu Fang said with a pained expression.    

The old man interrupted her, saying, "Enough, I've made up my mind. You brothers have done enough for the Profound Truths Sect. I don't want to see any more sacrifices. That's it, let's end it."    

Seeing that the old man had already said so and had the intention to give up completely, Xu Fang was speechless for a moment.    

At that moment, the old man waved his hand and forced himself to regain some of his youthful vigor. He said in a deep voice, "Let's go. All disciples, follow me out to welcome the Dou Clan."    

"Yes."    

The old man nodded. "Yes, Master."    

Xu Fang let out a long breath. It was as if all the strength in her body had been drained at this moment. Her body felt soft and light without any strength, because the faith that had been supporting her had completely collapsed at this moment.    

"Yes."    

She lowered her head and said.    

At this time, outside Little Spirit Island, the enormous Dou Family spirit ship lay across the sea. A silver-armored cultivator with a cold expression flew to the skies above Little Spirit Island, his eyes coldly sweeping over everyone.    

"Tch, it's just a small, dilapidated sect. With just a few disciples, there's definitely no profit to be taken advantage of."    

The silver-armored cultivator silently thought to himself.    

A moment later, just as he was about to grow impatient from waiting, the group of people led by the old man, Xu Fang, and the other disciples, flew out from the Small Spiritual Island. They looked at each other from afar.    

"Who's the sect master of the Profound Truths Sect?" The silver-armored cultivator coldly asked.    

"I am." The old man took a step forward and replied.    

"According to the rules of White Stone City, if you want to continue occupying this island, yes. I believe the ultimatum I gave you before has already explained in detail. Do you know? " The silver-armored cultivator said coldly.    

White Stone City was very large, and tax collection was one of its main sources of income. However, because it was too large, it was impossible to send so many people to collect taxes one by one. Thus, this authority was given to the four great families.    

The four great aristocratic families put in a lot of effort. After receiving the money, they only needed to hand over most of it to White Stone City. The rest naturally went into the pockets of the four great aristocratic families.    

This was something that everyone was well aware of. It could also be considered a very well-coordinated action.    

Hearing this, the old man nodded and said: "I know."    

"Then what's your answer?"    

The old man turned around and looked at Little Spirit Island. He could not bear it, but he gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He said, "I don't intend to continue occupying this Little Spirit Island. Please take it back."    

"Take it back?" The silver-armored cultivator's eyes flickered with surprise.    

He hadn't expected the other party to be so decisive as to give up on Little Spirit Island. This sort of situation was quite rare, especially for a small sect like this. Giving up on living in Little Spirit Island was simply even more unbearable than killing them.    

Without Little Spirit Island, there would be no foundation, just like a lonely ghost, without the sustenance of the mind.    

Under normal circumstances, no cultivator would be willing to do so.    

It seemed that this so-called group of people from the Profound Truths Sect had really reached the end of their rope, and had no choice but to give up.    

"You really want to give up Little Spirit Island?" The silver-armored cultivator asked again.    

"I..." The old man's expression was extremely unsightly, as well as depressed.    

Seeing this, the silver-armored cultivator faintly smiled and said, "Since you can't take out a million Divine Origin Stones, there is another method to continue occupying this small spirit island. It is said that there is a secret manual within the Profound Truths Sect called the Profound Truths Treasure Manual. As long as you are willing to take out the Profound Truths Treasure Manual... Lend my Dou Clan ten years to study it, and this small island will continue to belong to you. What do you think?"    

"What? The Mystic Treasure Collection? No, absolutely not. I knew that your Dou Clan wouldn't have any good intentions. You actually want to steal my sect's secret manual. Hmph. This is absolutely impossible, even if Little Spirit Island is gone. It's impossible for us to leak the secret manuals of our sect. Just give up on this idea. "    

Hearing this, the old man also became furious.    

He didn't think that the other party would actually have already set their sights on the sect's secret manuals. This was clearly a method to dig up their roots, as if they were digging up their ancestors' graves, and wanted to cut off their descendants.    

Moreover, the old man was very clear on one thing. If this secret manual was really lent out, then wanting to take it back would be virtually impossible.    

Although the other party said that he was borrowing them on the surface, in reality, he was borrowing them but not returning them. He naturally wouldn't believe such nonsense.    

Not only the old man, even Xu Fang and many other disciples were filled with righteous indignation as they glared at the other party with eyes filled with flames of anger.    

"Impossible! How can I lend the Mystic Treasure Manual to an outsider? We absolutely won't allow it. " Xu Fang said righteously.
