"Actually, I came to say that regarding the Yin Soul Tiger, I have a solution!" Ye Tianfan smiled and then said.

If he could, Ye Tianfan truly wanted to continue fighting, but he couldn't, because it was his sect, the Taichu Sect, that decided not to fight. If he chose to fight, it would be embarrassing for Master Zhi Chu.

"A solution?" Master Zhi Chu asked curiously, "With your strength, you can't even harm the Yin Soul Tiger, can you?"

Everyone nodded in agreement with Master Zhi Chu's words. After all, Ye Tianfan was now merely a weakling not even reaching Qian Yuan.

"It's like this..." Ye Tianfan briefly explained the situation when he went to Polo Cave, then he rolled up his sleeve to reveal the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent on his forearm.

When everyone saw the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent, they gasped, then looked at Ye Tianfan with envious eyes. Unexpectedly, going out to investigate a task could make such a demon beast acknowledge him as its master. It truly was an extraordinarily fortunate event.

"However, if we use the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent and fail, not only will this mission fail, but the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent might also be taken back by the demons from the Demon Sect, bringing them another step closer to their final plan," Ye Tianfan added.

"Nephew Tianfan is right," Master Zhi Chu said, "If the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent stays out of the hands of the Demon Sect's demons, it would be difficult for them to cultivate another one. Not only would it consume a lot of time and resources, but even finding a suitable host would be challenging. However, if the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent returns to their hands, they can continue cultivating it without spending much time starting over."

"But with the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent, our success rate will greatly increase," an elder from the Dali Sect said.

"It's too risky, though. Our success rate would greatly increase, but if we fail, the benefits to the Demon Sect demons would be too great, so much that I dare not gamble on this chance," an elder from the Celestial Fragrance Sect opposed.

The Celestial Fragrance Sect wasn't simply changing their stance; it was just that, in that kind of situation earlier, directly fleeing was something he absolutely wouldn't allow. However, the current situation was different.

Now it's about protecting Ye Tianfan's Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent from falling into the hands of the Demon Sect's demons. If it does, not only face but even substance would be useless, because if the Demon Sect's plan succeeds, the world would be doomed.

So, the elder from the Celestial Fragrance Sect was also hesitant, not daring to gamble the world away.

Everyone fell silent at the elder's words. Those who voted to leave earlier began to waver with the inclusion of the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent, wanting to try and see if they could engage in a collective battle to resolve the Demon Sect demons. They would even agree to the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent and the Yin Soul Tiger perishing together, though it would be best if the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent killed the Yin Soul Tiger, as it was already a sworn companion and a demon beast that had recognized its master.

Those who voted for battle earlier were also hesitant with the inclusion of the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent, caring little for their own lives if it meant eliminating evil for the people, even if it meant sacrifice.

If the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent were just an ordinary powerful demon beast, they wouldn't hesitate either. As a demon beast recognized by the righteous path, it's ready to sacrifice to eliminate evil, even if it means perishing with the Yin Soul Tiger, that would also be a good result. However, the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent is part of the Demon Sect's grand plan, the Dark Four Holy Beasts, as the Dark Black Dragon. Failing would mean sending a previously destroyed Holy Beast back to them, and a new crusade would be even more dangerous, counting them as half the culprits.

So now everyone was unsure of what to do, looking towards Master Zhi Chu for guidance.

Master Zhi Chu also struggled because with the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent, they weren't afraid of sacrificing ordinary disciples. They could directly have the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent fight the Yin Soul Tiger, while the elders and leaders fought the Demon Sect Leaders and Guardians, ordinary disciples forming an array or launching long-range attacks to aid the Bloodlight Five Elements Serpent. But if these elders and leaders failed...

If even one or two of the Demon Sect's leaders or guardians became free, the righteous disciples would be defeated thoroughly. Even if they didn't go after ordinary disciples and instead helped other leaders and guardians attack the righteous path's elders and leaders, they would lose even faster.

Of course, the reverse is true. If any of them quickly defeated a Demon Sect leader or guardian and helped others do the same, the Demon Sect's leaders and guardians would fall quickly as well.

Master Zhi Chu closed his eyes, sighed, and said, "Let's vote! Let's vote once more this time."

The others nodded vacantly, not knowing of any other methods, as this concerned the world's fate.

After Master Zhi Chu finished speaking, no one went up to vote for a long time. Everyone looked at each other, with no one taking the lead.

They all knew that if one person voted, whether they voted for battle or retreat, the balance in everyone's minds would be disrupted, leaning towards the result of that person's vote.

But no one dared to lead because no one could decide, as this decision concerned all under heaven.

While everyone was still hesitating, Ye Tianfan suddenly stood up, and seeing everyone's eyes turn to him because of his sudden movement, he smiled and said.

"Why don't we first request assistance from each of our sects, explain the situation, and then send some people over. In the meantime, we first harass them, aiming to disrupt the Demon Sect demons' plans. Once they chase us, we quickly retreat. When they return, we'll continue to harass them. If we can kill one, we've gained; if not, we still disrupt their plans and cause chaos. When they think we're just harassing them, we strike with a heavy attack.

Then we switch back to harassing, repeating the cycle until our reinforcements arrive. How about this plan?"

After Ye Tianfan finished speaking, he added in his heart that this was a tactic proposed by a great person, which had won many battles.

"This plan! I think it's feasible!" An elder from the Dali Sect was impressed after hearing the plan, hesitating for a moment before expressing his amazement.
