"I can give you a quarter of an hour."

Jing Yuan said softly, "You can convey the message to the Profound Moon Sword Sect people, or let them flee back to the sect... it doesn't matter, as long as you can escape!"

"Princess Changlin can testify, even if you die in this battle, I will promise to hand over Yuan Shouyi to her."

In this respect, Jing Yuan appeared extremely composed, and he indeed did not care about the life or death of Yuan Shouyi.

"I await your arrival!"

Taking a deep look at Jing Yuan, Wang Junze immediately turned around and walked away.

A quarter of an hour is actually very pressing, yet if it's just to send back a message, it isn't that difficult. The hard part is, even knowing the other side will attack, it's hard to defend!

Because once the Deserters take action again, the enemies that the Profound Moon Sword Sect will face will not be just the Deserters and Demon Race.

"General Gao, please station your troops here to keep an eye on the Deserters and prevent them from playing tricks."

Su Yuwei did not persuade Wang Junze to abandon the Profound Moon Sword Sect, she merely looked calmly at Gao Hongliang and instructed.

"Rest assured, Commandery Princess, I will leave most of the troops behind, but I must take some people with me to ensure the safety of the Commandery Princess."

Gao Hongliang naturally understood that as long as Wang Junze did not give up, this Commandery Princess would surely follow, and his duty was not to stop Su Yuwei from doing anything but to ensure her safety regardless of her choice.

To this, Su Yuwei had no objection and nodded slightly in agreement.

"Thank you for the support, Commandery Princess, although time is tight, if I survive this battle, I will express my gratitude personally."

Wang Junze looked at Su Yuwei, expressed his gratitude gently clasping his hands.

Of course, he had many things to say to Su Yuwei, but there was no time at the moment.

"If there's no hope... I can ensure your life!"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Su Yuwei couldn't help but speak again.

She really shouldn't have said this, but having experienced the pain of Wang Junze's death once, Su Yuwei simply couldn't accept Wang Junze dying right in front of her.

Even if Wang Junze really asked for her help, she didn't know whether she would refuse him.

"Commandery Princess, I cannot always live under someone else's protection."

With a bright smile on his face, Wang Junze seriously replied, "If I really die, please do not avenge me. This is my own choice!"

There was one more thing Wang Junze didn't say out loud.

I want to stand by your side openly and shield you from wind and rain, rather than always relying on your protection of me.

In the next moment, Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan's figures suddenly soared into the sky, flying back.

Until Wang Junze's figure completely disappeared, Gao Hongliang then slowly spoke, "Commandery Princess, Prince Yu's people are in the Northern Domain. Staying too close to him... will only harm him!"

Although it was just a brief contact, Gao Hongliang had a good impression of Wang Junze, which is why he specifically reminded her.

After all, Su Yuwei and the Changling Army cannot stay in the Northern Domain indefinitely. But if Prince Yu harbored a grudge against Wang Junze, he would have countless ways to kill Wang Junze, especially… if the Profound Moon Sword Sect loses this battle!

Mentioning Prince Yu, a flash of disgust appeared in Su Yuwei's eyes, but more so was helplessness.

She could willfully request her father to deploy the Changling Army north, but she couldn't ask him to refuse this marriage, which had far more serious implications than moving the Changling Army.

...

The appearance of the Changling Army drastically changed the battle situation. Whether the Deserters, Demon Race, or Prince Yu's subordinates, they were all forced to pause temporarily.

Yet, they were unwilling to retreat easily.

It was very hard to lure the Profound Moon Sword Sect people out. This opportunity was truly excellent. If allowed to retreat back to the Profound Moon Sword Sect, no one could casually attack the Profound Moon Sword Sect again. Moreover, having already suffered a significant loss last time, no one dared to engage with Zhou Dongfei at Profound Moon Mountain, as there's a trace of Sword Qi at Sword Peak.

Both sides were, in fact, waiting for the battle result between the Changling Army and the Deserters to decide whether this fight should continue.

It was at this moment that Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan returned from the Extreme North Wilderness.

"Elder Luo, Sword Elder!"

Landing next to Luo Qingxuan, Wang Junze lowered his voice and said, "The Changling Army has agreed to a ceasefire with the Deserters and will not interfere in the forthcoming battle... The experts of the Deserters and Demon Race will soon attack again, targeting only our sect!"

With just one sentence, Luo Bingyun and the Sword Elder's faces changed drastically.

With the arrival of the Changling Army, the siege of Jubei City was relieved; the Deserters couldn't possibly make a comeback. They no longer had to worry about the entire battle situation but it also placed the Profound Moon Sword Sect in a precarious danger.

Almost instinctively, Luo Bingyun wanted to order a retreat to the Profound Moon Sword Sect.

This thought only flashed through her mind, quickly dismissed.

It's too late!

Not mentioning the experts of the Deserters and Demon Race, who will undoubtedly arrive swiftly, even the strong individuals nearby wouldn't allow the Profound Moon Sword Sect people to withdraw easily.

If they truly attempted to escape, it would instantly lead to a total collapse!

Disciples above the Heaven-Stepping Realm might have some chance of survival, but other disciples couldn't possibly escape their pursuit. Such a price was unbearable for the Profound Moon Sword Sect. Even if these elders escaped back to the sect successfully, what could they change?

Moreover, Zhou Dongfei hadn't shown up at all. It was clear he likely engaged with a Saint Realm Powerhouse already!

In any case, having come to this point, the Profound Moon Sword Sect had no retreat available.

After thinking for only a moment, Luo Bingyun made a firm decision!

With a single step, Luo Bingyun suddenly flew into the sky, looking at the disciples and elders of the Profound Moon Sword Sect around her, she spoke in a deep voice, "Everyone, the experts of the Deserters and Demon Race are about to attack our sect again, we have no more options for retreat!"

"For those unwilling to fight, there's still time... you can leave immediately, I guarantee the sect will not hold you accountable afterwards!"

"What is Elder Luo saying? We returned from all corners to join this battle; how could we retreat without fighting?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect immediately laughed aloud, "When have our disciples ever feared battle?"

"We sword cultivators would rather break than bend!"

"Willing to carve a path with our three-foot sword in hand!"

"There's just battle!"

In an instant, all the disciples and elders of the Profound Moon Sword Sect shouted in unison.

Even knowing how dangerous this battle was, and that many may die here, at this moment, the fighting spirit in everyone's heart only increased rather than diminished.

The sharp swords unsheathed, killing intent filled the air!

The great fame of the Profound Moon Sword Sect was not bestowed by anyone but was earned by the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect with their swords.

At this moment, even those strong ones around, who were planning to attack the Profound Moon Sword Sect, couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in their hearts upon witnessing such momentum.

Facing such a Profound Moon Sword Sect, can they really win this battle?
