Chapter 2331: I Have Plenty of Reinforcements Too

Chai Jiu spoke defiantly, sneering constantly.

With the intervention of external aid, Chai Jiu could finally take bold action; the number of reinforcements he had gathered was terrifying, and he believed he could annihilate the Mo and Yu factions in one blow, forcing the neutral parties to dare not interfere again.

However, Sikong Jing also smiled and said, "I won’t negotiate either; I want to wipe you out too."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chai Ren laughed maniacally, "Black-scaled Little Demon, now that we have massive reinforcements, how dare you boast wildly?"

In response, Sikong Jing tilted his head and replied, "You have reinforcements; do you think I don’t?"

"Nonsense, you’re just a little demon who just came out of the Absolute Array; what kind of reinforcements could you have?" Chai Ren retorted, full of confidence, not believing Sikong Jing’s words at all.

And the people of the Cang Lineage were equally confident...

Sikong Jing did not respond; instead, he looked towards the Absolute Formation Gate and said, "Zhu Yan, gather all our reinforcements."

As soon as his voice fell... boom, boom, boom!

Tremendous and terrifying auras soared from the direction of the Absolute Formation Gate; they were the troops of the Mo and Yu factions.

But the next moment, the terrifying aura of Cang Lineage’s troops also rose...

Approaching the closure of the Absolute Formation Gate, the persuasion tactics against the Cang Lineage troops had undoubtedly succeeded greatly.

The leaders of those Cang Lineage troops were almost unwilling to be killed by the rules of the Absolute Array for nothing, and they didn’t want to die, so they had to surrender entirely to the Mo and Yu factions...

Since all the leaders had surrendered, the small soldiers and officers of the Cang Lineage obviously had no reason not to surrender.

They were naturally released in large numbers from within the Absolute Formation Gate by Mo Yu troops, and their leaders were temporarily locked with various locks to ensure they wouldn’t turn against the Mo and Yu factions after being released.

Not long after... whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Strong winds arose around Cangyu Island, pressing the troops of the Cangyu Demon Three Sects all around Cangyu Island...

Once settled, Sikong Jing looked at Chai Jiu coldly and said, "Our reinforcements are precisely all your Cang Lineage troops."

Buzz, buzz, buzz...

Seeing the densely packed and seemingly endless troops from the three factions, Chai Jiu and the others’ minds buzzed.

Neither Chai Jiu nor Chai Ren, nor anyone else, could believe it.

Next moment, Chai Jiu roared at one of the Cang Lineage leaders, "Chai Nushen, you son of a bitch, you dare betray me?"

Chai Nushen, just by hearing the name, it was clear, belonged to the Chai family’s servants.

This individual, evidently belonged to the category of death soldiers.

Yet he dared to betray Chai Jiu, the Sect Master, this was unimaginable, this was impossible.

Bear in mind, even death soldiers like Chai Gong were loyal to him, even if imprisoned, without a hint of dissent.

Why would a death soldier betray?

To this, Chai Nushen lowered his head slightly and did not reply.

But his gaze moved to the direction behind Chai Jiu, where Ying Sanmeng guarded the hostages, a scene that remained unchanged for over a dozen days since its beginning.

During the stalemate, Chai Jiu would not let Ying Sanmeng join Sikong Jing.

Why did Chai Nushen dare betray Chai Jiu?

He belonged to those who persevered until the end, until Mo and Yu factions showed him the Reflected Light Mirror, allowing him to see Chai Jiu and others not caring about their family members at all...

The persuasion of Mo and Yu factions was: Chai Jiu doesn’t care about his family and loved ones, what are you still holding on for?

In the beginning...

Most of the leaders were staunchly persistent, because they believed Chai Jiu would undoubtedly save them from the Absolute Array.

But after seeing the scene with the Reflected Light Mirror, numerous leaders of the Cang Lineage, including Chai Nushen, fully realized that Chai Jiu didn’t care about their lives, Chai Jiu had a heart as hard as stone, devoid of any affection...

Especially on the day before the Absolute Formation Gate was about to close, when calm Divine Demon Island Sea Domain began various stormy changes.

Countless troops from Cang Lineage began to collapse.

They continuously declared their surrender, one batch after another, madly falling to the Mo and Yu factions.

There were leaders who persisted, but they were directly eliminated by their subordinates.

No one wanted to die, especially not without value, let alone after personally experiencing the terror of the Demon Vein Master.

Of course, at this moment the Absolute Formation Gate hadn’t truly closed, and it wasn’t the final moment yet; in fact, Chai Jiu still wanted to wait until all reinforcements arrived, then let the Cang Lineage troops come out to support.

But it was too late.

He still did not care about the lives and deaths of family and loved ones, causing the Cang Lineage troops to distrust Chai Jiu, more importantly, Chai Jiu’s nature had always been like this, deeply ingrained among the Cang Lineage troops.

If it had been Ying Sanmeng, a soft-hearted person, it wouldn’t have been so easy to persuade them to surrender.

If it were Sikong Jing, even if the troops were to die in battle, they wouldn’t entertain the thought of surrender; in truth, Chai Jiu’s ruthlessness couldn’t reach the level where Cang Lineage troops would die for him.

"Chai Nushen, say something!"

Seeing Chai Nushen had no intention of replying, Chai Ren, of course, was also shouting in fury.

Those already surrendered certainly wouldn’t say anything; having made their decision, they could only follow the Mo Yu factions, only by eliminating Chai Jiu and others could they remove the various locks on them.

"Sect Master Chai, this, this, this..."

Meanwhile, the reinforcements from various parties stood dumbfounded.

Damn it, you Chai Jiu said it was a balanced situation and that if we came, it would break the balance, and victory was 100% guaranteed... but what do we see now? You’re completely surrounded.

You have no troops in Cang Lineage, what fight can you put up?

We came as reinforcements, not to be your sacrificial companions for Cang Lineage...

The chaos in Chai Jiu’s mind had already erupted; he did not manage the reinforcements temporarily.

Amidst various roars, seeing the situation was dire, he suddenly glanced at Ying Sanmeng, bizarrely screaming, "Everyone move, first capture Ying Sanmeng... capture him for me!"

After saying this, leading the charge, he lunged at Ying Sanmeng.

However... boom!

Several terrifying True Qi suddenly blocked Chai Jiu.

Upon seeing this, the latter shouted angrily, "Elder Lu, there’s no room for negotiation anymore, why the hell are you still stopping me?"

Indeed, those blocking him were still the neutral parties.

Chai Ren also followed closely behind Chai Jiu, roaring, "Lu, if you don’t want to die, get lost right away, or join Cang Lineage to fight against the damned Black-scaled Little Demon together."

But Elder Lu ignored them and looked at Ying Sanmeng, saying, "Ying Sect Master, let’s retreat together."

With that, Elder Lu and the neutral parties almost simultaneously retreated with Ying Sanmeng, and the moment Chai Jiu couldn’t believe it, numerous figures rushed forward, dozens of neutral powerhouses protecting Ying Sanmeng and two others in the center.

Such a scene nearly drove Chai Jiu insane; he stood frozen, staring fiercely at Elder Lu and the others.

Chai Jiu’s voice trembled constantly, "You, you..."

At this moment, Elder Lu took a deep breath and replied, "We are no longer neutral; we will fight for the Mo and Yu factions."

As soon as these words fell... buzz!

Already collapsing, Chai Jiu and the others’ minds buzzed, each close to bursting their hearts.

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing’s voice rang out again, "Chai Jiu, my reinforcements, of course, include... the neutral elders."

Already a day ago, Elder Lu had made a complete agreement.

All of Cang Lineage’s higher-ups went mad, as Chai Jiu, in disbelief, shook his head, "Why, why?"

He continued to glare at Elder Lu, convinced that Cang Lineage still had a chance to win, why had they all defected all of a sudden?

The neutral elders couldn’t be like this, Chai Jiu was confident he understood them well.
