The battle had bogged down.
The Elder Council had attacked for a long time without breaking through. Though the Jiang Family had suffered heavy losses, the Elder Council's casualties were almost three times theirs!
With a loss ratio like that, by all common sense, the fight should already have been impossible to continue.
For every one of theirs who died, three of yours had to die. Any rational person would have called a stop to a battle that piled up human lives like this.
But the Elder Council could no longer stop.
If they stopped, the Jiang Family would win, and launching a second attack would become difficult.
At the very least, in the short term, no one would have confidence anymore.
Once a unit's confidence collapsed, its combat power could basically be said to drop to zero.
But right now, the Elder Council's morale and combat strength were almost at zero too.
They couldn't win!
Aside from a few veteran elders who could still go over and scrape at the enemy, scuffle a bit, and go toe-to-toe with the other side's key figures, the rest were pissing themselves.
The key was that these Jiang Family house retainers and younger disciples were all insane!
Their eyes were red! As long as someone was not one of their own, they hacked and slaughtered like madmen!
They did not even think about it. At a time like this, at a juncture like this, could the people who stayed behind possibly be ordinary?
They were people who knew full well that this time, they were basically using their lives to repay the Jiang Family's kindness. So every single one of them had come for a desperate fight!
Even if they threw away their lives, they had to help the Jiang Family!
