Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 526: Countermeasures


"Summon Xingxue and Yiniang here, also, please invite Miss Huang Hui." The eldest white-haired woman instructed, then gently sighed, "I feel that my end is near."

"Elder Ancestor!"

"Elder Ancestor, don't speak nonsense."

"Elder Ancestor, you're rambling!"

Everyone in the room was a little startled, their faces tense as they looked at the eldest white-haired woman.

The white-haired woman smiled faintly, "What's all this? Sit down, be calm." She waved her hand, laughing, "Everyone must die eventually, when the time comes, who can avoid it?"

"The Elder Ancestor is in fine health, why so suddenly say such words?" A sadness fell over Shen Aoshuang's face as she spoke softly.

"We, as Immortals, primarily practice medicine and are not proficient in battle. This is completely opposite to the battle-seeking One Sword. However, Immortals have a unique ability, when our end is near, we get a strong premonition, you all should know this," the white-haired woman said calmly.

Everyone in the room fell silent. Of course, they knew this, but knowing didn't mean they were willing to accept it.

The white-haired woman in front of them was the oldest and wisest ancestor of all the Immortals. During her time in control, she elevated the overall strength of the Immortals and ran a tight ship.

In comparison, today's Shen Aobing was as naive as a child.

"So, there's no need for you to grieve," the white-haired woman said with a faint smile, "I can sense that our Immortals may face great calamity tonight, so we must be well-prepared in advance."

"In this place, how dare they really do it?" Shen Aoshuang's brow furrowed, she seemed somewhat incredulous.

Shen Aobing affirmed, "They dare! Those from Beyond Heaven have concealed their true situation for countless years. If Li Ye hadn't grown tired of that life and revealed their secrets, we would still be kept in the dark today."

The white-haired woman nodded, "Indeed, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to do. But what I'm more curious about, is how they plan on executing their plan."

"Even though we have fewer ancestral Elders than those from Beyond Heaven, they are, after all, on the same side as Lonely City, yet we also have friends from One Sword. If a battle does break out, we may not necessarily fear them. Unless they're all insane… not caring about their losses," a senior Immortal said.

The white-haired woman thought for a moment and then said, "Please also invite the elders of One Sword here. Remember, don't alert anyone else. Use the secret passage."

At this point, someone outside announced that Miao Yi Niang and the others had arrived.

"Let the children come in," the white-haired woman said, "Add a few more chairs."

Everyone in the room was taken aback, but someone immediately brought a few more chairs.

Miao Yi Niang and Shen Xingxue were both somewhat flattered. No matter how great their lineage or how powerful they were now, they were still juniors. In the presence of these ancestors, did they even have a place to sit?

Huang Hui, on the other hand, appeared much calmer. In fact, Huang Hui was always composed. After returning from the Ruins, a certain indescribable quality had been added to her demeanor.

She looked… rather noble!

Yet she didn't give off an air of unapproachability.

The white-haired woman didn't give Shen Xingxue and Miao Yi Niang a chance to politely decline, she directly encouraged them to sit and said, "We're short on time, let's get straight to the point."

Miao Yi Niang and Shen Xingxue exchanged glances, then looked at Huang Hui, unsure of what exactly was going on and why they were suddenly being treated so cordially.

At that moment, several elders from One Sword were also invited over, with Hua Xiaoya following behind. Seeing Miao Yi Niang and the others, Hua Xiaoya made a playful face and stuck out her tongue.

"My end is near, and the time is short. I can foresee certain things. This may sound a bit mysterious, and I don't have time to explain it to you. Just listen," the white-haired woman cut to the chase, not bothering to be overly polite with these people, and went straight to the point, "Tonight, something big may happen. In the visions of my premonition, this town is shrouded in a sea of blood and corpses."

Had anyone else said this, they would probably be laughed off. Who do you think you are, making such grand prophecies? You might even deserve to be beaten for it.

However, coming from the eldest ancestor of the Immortals, it carried a whole different weight.

Everyone from the Four Great Sects knew that the foresight of Immortal's ancestors at the time of their death could foresee many things about to happen, achieving almost a hundred percent accuracy!

Therefore, when the white-haired woman said these words, the expressions of a few elders from One Sword instantly turned grave, their gaze fixed on the white-haired woman.

The white-haired woman continued, "Based on the information we've received so far, as well as my premonitions, we believe it should be those people from Beyond Heaven planning to make a move against us! Of course, I don't know where they get their confidence from. But I'm sure about this."

"Then... What does the Patriarch Feng want us to do?" A male elder from One Sword calmly asked the white-haired woman.

"Immortals and One Sword, because of the matter with the boy Chu Mo, have almost completely fallen out with Lonely City and Beyond Heaven. 'A tooth for a tooth', I believe that you all understand this principle," the white-haired woman pondered, "Since they're planning to make a move, there's no way they would just target us and leave One Sword unscathed. Even if they let go today, they will surely not let go in the future."

A few elders from One Sword glanced at each other then nodded, acknowledging the reason in the white-haired woman's words.

"So, what I want to do is this: right now, we take action!" A gleam shot through the eyes of the white-haired woman, "We gather all the strengths of Immortals and One Sword together, protecting the young ones who got the chance from One Sword, along with the children of our Immortals and Miss Huang… and leave! Leave White Tiger Continent!"

"What? Leave now?" One of the elders from One Sword looked surprised.

The white-haired woman nodded and said, "Yes, leave now! Because those of us who should have emerged have already emerged! The rest likely won't be able to make it out."

These words sounded cold, but in fact, they were very realistic.

"Regardless, we have to ensure our roots remain. And they are our roots!" The white-haired woman continued, "If things go smoothly, then we shall all leave together! If they attempt to intercept us, their rhythm will surely be disrupted, and their plans thrown into chaos!"

At this moment, Huang Hui suddenly spoke up, "I disagree!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com to cast your recommendation votes and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
