Chapter 921: Acting Again
Leimeng is precisely the name of the Wuzhou Leader.
After listening to Cao Tian's account, everyone fell silent.
Because what Cao Tian said was almost entirely the truth, only slightly embellished at a few key points.
It was told so vividly that there was not the slightest flaw.
The group did not doubt it.
After a long silence, Qingshui was the first to recover, asking with a suspicious expression, "To set up such a massive Transmission Array, an ordinary Array Master could absolutely not do it. Wasn't Ye Lingyun already beheaded? How could there still be someone with such attainments in the Array Path within Wenxian City?"
Cao Tian shook his head, "Ye Lingyun was indeed beheaded by us; as for this Transmission Array..."
"Perhaps it was not set up just now, but a lethal trap laid by Wenxian City in advance."
That makes sense.
Hearing this, the group nodded.
Afterward, the scene fell into silence.
After a good while, the Wuzhou Leader suddenly spoke, "Next, should we continue to implement the strategy to break the Formation?"
Hearing the Wuzhou Leader's words, the expressions of the group flickered.
A moment later, Qingshui said in a firm tone, "Of course we must execute it!"
"The successive annihilation of the feinting teams is not the fault of our decision-making, but of the executors."
"Since there was no problem with the decision, and it has already reached the final stage, it must naturally continue to be implemented."
After speaking, his gaze swept over the other leaders, a meaningful look appearing on his face.
Seeing Qingshui's expression.
The group immediately reacted, their gazes flashing in unison.
Although Qingshui's words were subtle.
The meaning was actually already very clear.
That is, they must absolutely not admit to a failure in decision-making!
Once a failure in decision-making is admitted, it means the responsibility lies with them, the leaders.
But if there is a problem with the execution of the decision, although they also have responsibility, most of the responsibility will be shifted onto the executors!
Thinking of this, they nodded simultaneously.
"That's right, strictly speaking, the plan to break the Formation has no problems at all, and it can indeed reduce losses for us."
"The reason it has developed to this point is only because of poor execution."
"Next, we must strictly execute it and must not let any more complications arise."
Hearing the discussion among the several leaders, the team members nodded one after another.
Which of the people present was not a prodigy within their respective forces?
How could they not hear that these few were unwilling to bear the responsibility?
However, continuing to execute the plan to break the Formation did indeed have benefits for them, the ordinary team members.
Naturally, they would not undermine them.
Just at this moment.
The five leaders present simultaneously received a message.
When they took out their Sound Transmission Talismans, Wan Guiyuan's angry voice immediately resounded in their minds.
"How exactly are you people handling things?"
"To actually withdraw troops without waiting for me to send word to you—could it be you really want to get me killed?"
Hearing Wan Guiyuan's transmission, the five could not help but feel a bit awkward.
Wan Guiyuan was risking life and limb inside Wenxian City, while they had repeatedly dropped the ball.
It was truly inexcusable.
"I will send a reply."
Yuwei sighed, and with a movement of her consciousness, a message was sent out.
In Wenxian City.
Wang Jianqiang sat lazily on a soft chair.
Behind him.
Xiao Ke Ke and Ling Er were on his left and right, gently massaging his shoulders.
In front of him.
The Great Star Envoy sat by his side, feeding him Spirit Fruit.
Suddenly.
Spirit Light flashed on the Sound Transmission Talisman in his hand, and a voice filled with cowardice and apology entered his mind.
"Apologies, Daoist Friend Wan, I have caused you trouble again."
"We did not withdraw our troops; rather, the feinting team encountered an accident..."
"The entire army was annihilated!"
"Rest assured, next time we guarantee that no more accidents will occur!"
At the end of the transmission was a voice full of determination.
The corners of Wang Jianqiang's mouth lifted.
With a movement of his consciousness, he sent out another message.
"Wait for my news before acting; I hope you can keep your word."
……
After finishing Wang Jianqiang's reply, Yuwei let out a long breath.
"Fairy Yuwei, how is it?"
The four Leaders at her side looked over expectantly.
Under the gaze of the four, Yuwei smiled somewhat shyly, "Daoist Friend Wan is magnanimous and did not hold it against us."
"He told us to stand by where we are and wait for his news before acting."
Hearing Yuwei's words, the four let out long sighs of relief.
They had been afraid that Wan Guiyuan would quit in a fit of anger.
If that happened, the plan to break the Formation would be completely impossible to carry out.
Fortunately.
Wan Guiyuan was even more foolish than they had imagined and did not hold it against them.
……
In the time that followed.
Wang Jianqiang entered a state of closed-door cultivation once again.
He had not seen the Great Star Envoy, Xiao Ke Ke, and Linge for many years.
The three had too many questions regarding cultivation that required his guidance.
Wang Jianqiang was the most warm-hearted; how could he turn a blind eye to this?
He patiently instructed the three of them one by one.
Under his patient guidance, all three gained a great deal.
Time flew by, and two months had already passed.
On this day.
Wang Jianqiang took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and sent out a message.
……
In the wilderness.
Yuwei, Qingshui, and the other three Leaders received the message at the same time.
The expressions of the five shifted.
The time for action had come again.
This time.
The content of Wan Guiyuan's message was very simple.
It was to continue executing the feint plan, and the scale of the Feint Squad was still one thousand people.
After some selection.
The Feint Squad was formed.
Because of Cao Tian's suggestion, there were still no Cultivators from Youzhou in this Feint Squad.
And because of the lesson learned from the destruction of the previous Feint Squad.
This time, the Feint Squad was not led by just one person.
Instead, a full two Leaders were dispatched.
In this way, the two would keep each other in check, and even if one made a wrong decision, the second person would be there to restrict them.
As for Cao Tian, it was unknown what his considerations were, but he did not join this Feint Squad.
After the Feint Squad assembled, they immediately began to march toward Wenxian City.
Not long after.
When the team arrived outside Wenxian City and was preparing to launch an attack on Wenxian City.
A light screen suddenly appeared, shrouding them within it.
The Cultivators from Outside the Realm had their expressions tighten.
"An Array? Wenxian City actually set up an Array in advance; could it be they guessed we were coming?"
At the very front of the team, among the two Leaders, one had a tightened expression, while the other shook their head and said calmly, "It shouldn't be; no one knew of our arrival except for Daoist Friend Wan."
"Could it be that Daoist Friend Wan leaked it?"
"It should be that Wenxian City set up the Array in advance after experiencing two attacks."
The Leader who spoke first nodded, looked up at the Array light screen, and sneered, "This Wenxian City is truly naive; they don't think this Array can do anything to us, do they?"
As they spoke, they pointed a finger out.
Boom~
The Array light screen trembled, but it was not shattered as they had imagined, and not even a single crack appeared.
"Huh? It actually managed to withstand a strike at fifty percent of my power!"
"Interesting~"
They chuckled and stopped holding back.
They pressed their palm forward, and an invisible shockwave flew out.
Boom!
The Array light screen vibrated violently, and cracks appeared all over it.
But it still did not shatter.
Seeing this scene, it was not just the person who had attacked.
All the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators present could not help but reveal looks of astonishment.
