Chapter 566

~7 min read 1,375 words

Outside Dongzhou Dukou, there is a canyon named Yixiantian; this is the tomb specially arranged by Yu Li and her disciples and Fomen for Su Luoxing.

The reason is simple: Yixiantian's terrain is narrow; once surrounded, it is hard to have any chance to break out.

At this moment, many disciples of Luo Xia Sect have already been divided and surrounded by Fomen; of course, Fomen's target has always been Su Luoxing.

As for the disciples below, there is no need to worry at all; once Su Luoxing is killed, these disciples are nothing to fear.

Moreover, Yu Li and her disciples are also present.

Fighting one against three, facing two Fomen saints and Yu Li's attack, Su Luoxing has been gritting his teeth and persisting, fighting while retreating.

The surrounding disciples and elders are each suffering serious injuries.

By now, Su Luoxing no longer blames Yu Li for anything; in this world there is no absolute right or wrong, everything is merely a personal choice.

Yu Li hates the Dao Yi Sect, so she chose Fomen; that is her own problem, not a matter of right or wrong.

So-called right and wrong ultimately come down to each person's different position.

The only thing that makes Su Luoxing want to kill is that Yu Li, in order to achieve her goal, disregards the lives and deaths of the sect's disciples.

Know that Luo Xia Sect has been guarding Dongzhou Dukou; all kinds of healing medicines, Qi Xiong has never fallen short in providing them.

It is entirely carried out according to the standards of the Dao Yi Sect's disciples.

As for Fomen, frankly it is just an empty promise with no basis.

If Yu Li had the courage to launch an attack directly against me, even if I ended up losing, Su Luoxing would feel somewhat better.

People have different aspirations, but at least one cannot lose the most basic bottom line.

Therefore, in the process of fighting one against three, Su Luoxing's target has always been locked onto Yu Li.

At the cost of possibly being seriously wounded by the two Fomen saints, Su Luoxing also wants to slay Yu Li and personally clean up the sect.

And Su Luoxing's combat power also made Yu Li feel chilled; thus, after being heavily wounded by a single strike from Su Luoxing, Yu Li actually retreated directly, withdrawing from the battlefield.

Watching Yu Li flee in fear, Su Luoxing gave a cold smile.

"Heh, is this your courage? With you, you don't even deserve to sit as the Sect Master of Luo Xia Sect."

Hearing Su Luoxing's contemptuous mockery, Yu Li's face turned a shade of iron green, and she gritted her teeth to retort.

"Hmph, Su Luoxing, let's see if you can survive today first."

"Even if I cannot survive, Luo Xia Sect is not something you can covet; Shīzūn will not let you off."

All the way retreating into Yixiantian, upon reaching here, one truly has nowhere left to retreat.

At this moment, beside Su Luoxing only remain Yang Xian and three other Luo Xia Sect saints, as well as some sect elders, stewards, and disciples.

As for the others, they have long been scattered by Fomen.

In this battle, Fomen's goal is clear: Su Luoxing and the multitude of saints of Luo Xia Sect.

However, don't think that Su Luoxing and the others merely appear to be fighting while retreating; despite the battle so far, Fomen's multitude of saints have still been unable to capture him.

This also makes Fomen's side increasingly anxious.

"Damn it."

A Fomen saint shouted angrily, "After all this, is this old thing still so hard to kill?"

Su Luoxing's tenacity indeed exceeds Fomen's expectations.

Even finally, under Su Luoxing's leadership, the multitude of Luo Xia Sect disciples actually managed to break out of the encirclement of Yixiantian, which makes Fomen unable to tolerate it any further.

"No matter what today, we must convert this villain."

We have planned this for so long; moreover, Yu Li and her disciples have already been exposed now—if we don't kill Su Luoxing this time, it will be even harder next time.

Therefore, Fomen has made up its mind: this time we must definitely kill Su Luoxing, absolutely not let him escape; at the very least we must seize Dongzhou Dukou to create an opportunity for Fomen's forthcoming offensive.

Pursuing and fleeing, fighting while retreating, Su Luoxing's group gradually withdrew back to Dongzhou Dukou, yet the Fomen strongmen behind them showed no sign of giving up, pursuing relentlessly all the way.

Su Luoxing and the others who fled back to Dongzhou Dukou discovered that many Luo Xia Sect disciples had also fled back in a sorry state.

Immediately, Su Luoxing had Yang Xian and others go check the casualty situation.

Not long after, Yang Xian and the other Luo Xia Sect saints returned one after another, but their faces were all very grim.

"Senior Brother, the situation is not good."

"The disciples' injuries are not light, and some elders and stewards are likewise."

"I fear Dongzhou Dukou cannot be held."

Finally, Yang Xian remained silent for a moment, then spoke.

Hearing this, Su Luoxing fell into silence, without his former fury.

He naturally knows that this time, because of Yu Li and her disciples, Luo Xia Sect's casualty situation is very severe.

At present, wanting to continue guarding Dongzhou Dukou is indeed difficult.

Yang Xian and the others are still relatively rational; seeing Su Luoxing silent, they earnestly urge him to abandon Dongzhou Dukou and not persist any further.

Even if the position is lost, we can retake it later; but if all the sect's disciples die miserably here, then Luo Xia Sect is finished.

As the Sect Master of Luo Xia Sect, I have an obligation to consider the sect.

Su Luoxing naturally understands this reasoning as well; thus, facing the advice of Yang Xian and the others, after a long silence Su Luoxing finally spoke.

"Let all the disciples withdraw completely from Dongzhou Dukou."

Hearing this, Yang Xian and the others were all delighted; at least Senior Brother didn't lose his head.

Afterward, Su Luoxing looked at Yang Xian and the others with a serious expression.

"And you all, together, take good care of the disciples."

"Senior Brother, you................"

At this moment, Yang Xian and the others all sensed that Su Luoxing was off, but Su Luoxing gave no explanation, merely smiling.

"I promised that old bastard."

"But Senior Brother................"

Cut the nonsense, go.

Under Su Luoxing's order, the Luo Xia Sect disciples quickly withdrew one after another from Dongzhou Dukou, while Su Luoxing himself came alone onto the city wall.

Seeing the Fomen experts rapidly pursuing from afar, Su Luoxing instead calmed down.

Having the disciples leave was because, as the Sect Master of Luo Xia Sect, he had to consider the sect and could not let the sect's disciples die pointlessly.

And staying behind alone was because of his promise to Qi Xiong.

Having already resolved to die, watching the Fomen experts relentlessly approach, Su Luoxing spoke with a smile.

"Old fool, this time I'm afraid I'll disappoint you again, but as long as I still have a breath, I will definitely guard this Dongzhou Dukou for you."

Speaking, Su Luoxing's aura kept rising.

The forbidden technique was unleashed, without regard for consequences; from afar one could see the soaring pillar of Línglì on the city wall, and the Fomen experts rushing rapidly, each with grim faces.

"They don't know life and death."

"A trapped beast still fights."

They didn't expect Su Luoxing to not leave, but this works out well; killing Su Luoxing and taking Dongzhou Dukou would make this battle complete.

In another direction, Yang Xian and the others who had just left Dongzhou Dukou likewise turned back to look toward Dongzhou Dukou, feeling that strong, familiar fluctuation of Línglì, and everyone's expressions were complex.

"Shī xiōng he.........."

On the other side, Qi Xiong, who was hurriedly bringing disciples of a peak via the Teleportation Array, finding the speed too slow and extremely anxious, said to Tie Shou, the Peak Master of Zhen Shan Feng, beside him.

"I'll go ahead; you bring the disciples to catch up."
