Vast Righteous Sect Prepares to Withdraw from Mo Province
"Gentlemen, we have reached a point where we have no choice but to make a decision," Li Moran said first.
Li Moran looked at the nine Minor Grandmaster left on his side and sighed inwardly. In this battle, he had lost three more Minor Grandmaster, and all the remaining Minor Grandmaster were injured.
Even the Exotic Beast Valley, which came to provide support, lost a Minor Grandmaster. Although the Five Poisons Sect did not lose Minor Grandmaster, the Five Poisons Sect had very few tamed poisonous insects left.
So if the fighting continues, it's very possible that the Vast Righteous Sect will be completely wiped out.
Moreover, if the fighting continues, it's likely that both the Exotic Beast Valley and the Five Poisons Sect will have to withdraw.
Therefore, Li Moran had already made up his mind and was truly planning to withdraw from Mo Province.
However, we need to discuss this matter with everyone to determine the best place to retreat.
Quan Xing was the first to stand up, and said with a somewhat agitated tone, "Master, are we just going to give up like this? Are we just going to let our dead brothers go unpunished?"
"Yes! Master, we cannot let the death of our brothers go unavenged!" A Minor Grandmaster of the Vast Righteous Sect stood up and said indignantly.
"Yes! Master. We can't just lose the foundation that our Vast Righteous Sect over hundreds of years!" The remaining Minor Grandmaster of the Vast Righteous Sect all stood up excitedly.
Watching people die right before their eyes was indeed a huge shock for the remaining Minor Grandmaster of the Vast Righteous Sect.
Moreover, if they were to withdraw from Mo Province like this, all the foundation they had built up over the years would be lost, which the Vast Righteous Sect members certainly did not want.
Looking at the indignant crowd, Li Moran felt a pang of sorrow, but for the sake of the Vast Righteous Sect's survival, he had to make a decision as soon as possible.
Then, Li Moran calmly said, "I know all of that, but if we continue to fight the Ji Family, how many of us here will be left?"
Upon hearing this, all the elders of the Vast Righteous Sect fell silent, after all, this was a matter concerning their own lives and fortunes.
Judging from the battles that have been going on recently, if the Vast Righteous Sect continues to fight the Ji Family, it is possible that everyone will be wiped out.
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Li Moran asked the Grand Elder Quan Xing, "Elder Quan, where do you think we should retreat to?"
Quan Xing pondered for a moment and said, "Master, apart from the neighboring Tian Province and Qian Province, we can be said to be surrounded by the alliance of the five great families."
"Going to Gen Province is not a good option either, as the Liu Family is the sole power in that region. Going to Feng Province is also not a good option, since the Wang Family and the White Saint Society are currently at war. After all, our purpose in leaving Mo Province is to recuperate."
Aside from the desert on the far side, Mo Province is bordered by Gen Province, Feng Province, Qian Province, and Tian Province.
Even if the previous events hadn't happened in Tian Province, Li Moran wouldn't have considered moving the Vast Righteous Sect there.
After all, Li Moran knew the strength of his Vast Righteous Sect. If he moved in, he wouldn't gain any advantage at all, and might even be devoured by them.
Qian Province, a prefecture controlled by the three sects, is best left unconsidered.
As for the remaining two states, Gen and Feng, Elder Quan has already explained the situation. If they were to relocate there, what difference would it make in Mo Province?
So now it's definitely necessary to relocate further away, and Li Moran doesn't know what decision to make for the time being.
Seeing Li Moran's hesitant expression, Jiang Liu said, "Uncle Li, since your Vast Righteous Sect cannot relocate to a nearby prefecture, why not consider moving to Yunzhou?"
After hearing Jiang Liu's words, Li Moran looked up at him, nodded, and said nothing. Instead, he asked the Vast Righteous Sect members, "Do you have any other good suggestions?"
The elders of the Vast Righteous Sect immediately began to discuss the matter. Since they were going to relocate across states, they could only choose a power that was friendly to them or a relatively peaceful state.
Currently, only Qi Province and Yunzhou meet both of these conditions, because only these two forces have come to support them.
Currently, the Exotic Beast Valley holds a dominant position in Qi Province, but Exotic Beast Valley leader has not extended an invitation to them, and it is unknown whether he will agree.
Therefore, after the Vast Righteous Sect and his followers unanimously decided to move to Yunzhou.
Then Vast Righteous Sect everyone to look at Li Moran, to see what decision he would make.
Li Moran pondered for a moment, then looked at Jiang Liu and said, "Nephew, since you have invited us to Yunzhou, which prefecture do you plan to settle us in?"
Jiang Liu smiled and said, "Uncle Li, do you have an ideal place in mind?"
Li Moran thought for a moment and said, "We have traveled a long way and it is not advisable to go to too far a prefecture. Can Xia County accommodate my Vast Righteous Sect?"
Jiang Liu turned to look at Yi Yue, Yi Yue stood up knowingly and said, "My lord, all the local forces in Xia County have now submitted, and they should be very welcoming to the brothers of the Vast Righteous Sect."
Jiang Liu nodded and said to Li Moran, "Uncle, you heard it too. There's no problem handing over Xia County to you."
Li Moran nodded in satisfaction, cupped his hands towards Jiang Liu and said, "Then I am extremely grateful to my nephew for giving my Vast Righteous Sect a place to recuperate."
"Uncle, what are you saying? I'm overjoyed that you've come to Yunzhou," Jiang Liu said with a smile.
When the Vast Righteous Sect members heard that Jiang Liu had agreed, the atmosphere on the field immediately relaxed.
Elder He nodded in satisfaction as he looked at Jiang Liu. Although he also wanted to invite the Vast Righteous Sect to Qi Province, this was a matter that only the Valley Master could decide, so he couldn't make a hasty decision.
Now that the Vast Righteous Sect has been able to move to Yunzhou, it can be considered that the benefits are not going to outsiders.
After all, Jiang Liu was True Inheritor Disciple of the Exotic Beast Valley, and his relationship with the Exotic Beast Valley was so close.
"Alright! Now that everyone has made up their minds, let's discuss how to relocate!" Li Moran said, seizing the opportunity.
Then everyone started discussing it, and they all agreed that the Ji Family would not let the Vast Righteous Sect leave easily and would definitely come out to stop them.
Grandmaster and Minor Grandmaster are a little better off, but if Ranked Martial Practitioner are hunted down, there is a high chance of heavy casualties.
So even if you decide to move, you still need to plan it carefully.
In particular, we need to stop the Ji Family's pursuit. Now that the two families have stopped fighting, there must be many spies around, so we should wait and see.
Li Moran then instructed the elders of the Vast Righteous Sect to go back and eliminate the Ji Family's spies throughout the entire Du Prefecture before preparing for the relocation.
Seeing that the Minor Grandmaster elders had dispersed, Li Haoran turned to Quan Xing and said, "Elder Quan, please supervise them personally. I don't want any mistakes to happen among the people below."
"Yes, Master, I will be careful," Quan Xing replied, and then walked out of the Quan Xing hall.
It's normal for Li Moran to have some reservations about the martial artists and elders below him.
After all, this matter is of great importance, and there can be no mistakes. Otherwise, it would be irresponsible to the disciples below.
Then, Li Moran turned to Jiang Liu and said, "Nephew, your uncle has something else he'd like to ask you. Could you have your men help monitor things?"
Jiang Liu nodded, and then instructed Yi Yue to take four less seriously injured Minor Grandmaster to cooperate with Elder Quan Xing.
Only then could Li Moran finally relax completely, after all, Jiang Liu was genuinely trying to help him.
