Chapter 927: Enemies
Sage was faced with a difficult position. The only way to ensure the Four Major Businesses didnt get their hands on the Insect Immortal Index was to take very drastic measures. If this concerned only the profits of the Prosperity Company, Sage would never do something so radical, but the strength of the Lang Clan was very reliant on modifying their bodies. Dragoons, Adjutors, and their own bodies were all created in this way. Giving others insight into their secrets could help them find their weak points. Since he didnt plan to stay around forever, Sage wanted them to be as strong and secure as possible.
Faced with the choice of the safety of his own family, versus the complete freedom of these others, he went with the tyrannical option. It was something he had already done more than a few times in the past, so unfortunately he had grown used to it. Banishing his enemies to the Inner World against their will was terrible, but he comforted himself with the idea that it was far better than death or slavery.
Xie Bian looked shaken, but she was still not completely convinced. She gathered her strength and poured it into the scorpion beneath her. Its body was the size of a warehouse and their constant cooperation meant it could perfectly fuse with the Qi and Law power she injected into it. A beam of burning liquid shot forth from the stinger on the scorpions tail, firing towards Sage, the leader of her enemies. The power of two peak Nascent Souls fused into one, pushing it another level higher.
Sage merely shook his head as the five Purple Mist Sect members around the Chong Clan leader went into action. The Formation Armor they were wearing came to life, the many symbols carved into them filling with light and linking their strength together with brilliant purple chains of energy. One of the chains shook and a wave of energy echoed through the air like the ripples on the surface of calm waters. This rippling energy knocked up against the liquid beam attack, each wave disturbing the cohesion of the beam until it splashed apart. The high pressure ray was smashed apart, turning into a loose mass of liquid.
Its still not too late. Please prevent the loss of more life. My people will do all they can to subdue the Chong Clan members without killing, but you know there will be many losses. Even if you tell them all to surrender, many will not believe you, but that is still better than how many will die if you continue to resist instead.
Once he involved himself in the battle against Xie Bian he felt there was a very high chance of them capturing her. There was a small chance she could escape, but she certainly wouldnt be able to stop them from overrunning the Chong Clan. The most she could do would be to escape and take along some of her people with her. The Chong Clan had a bit over ten Nascent Souls. He knew of eleven that had survived the war with the Fu Clan, but there was still the chance more were in hiding or had just risen using the resources taken as spoils of war. Even so, how could they hope to face off against more than a hundred Nascent Souls? A single sixth rank Cultivator could take on dozens of rank fives and hundreds of rank fours on their own.
Do you really trust all your descendants to be prudent enough to calmly escape or surrender? Are you confident enough in your own strength that you think you can save them all without fail?
Sages final plea seemed to remind her of something and Xie Bian sighed. She leapt down off of the giant scorpions back and looked resigned, Fine, lets do this quickly then. Do you trust me enough to operate the Sects arrays, or will you force me to sign a Blood Contract?
