Chapter 935 - 1035: Life-and-Death Escape

"This matter is not very clear to you, but what I can tell you is, Junior Brother Tianfan absolutely would not collaborate with the enemy!" Yun Tian, the senior brother, spoke up.

Because some details couldn't be revealed to them, Yun Tian simply vaguely mentioned a bit, but couldn't speak specifically about it to these people!

After hearing Yun Tian's assurance, the others nodded, expressing their agreement with Yun Tian's words. After all, if Yun Tian's guarantee couldn't convince them, then no one else could offer a better assurance!

Then Yun Tian continued, "If what the Demon Sect Leader said is true, then it should be somewhat credible. This means that Tian Chun is likely an existence that the Demon Sect Leader cannot control at all!"

Ye Tianfan nodded after hearing this and then said, "I have the same feeling. I noticed that in the eyes of the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji, the wariness towards Tian Chun is extremely heavy, to the extent that there is no trust in him at all. This means that Tian Chun is likely an uncertain existence for the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji, and he simply cannot command him, which is why the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji sent a message to me, telling us to leave here quickly!"

Yun Tian nodded and then said, "Then we should leave here quickly, otherwise..."

Yun Tian didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood his meaning, so they quickly stood up, preparing to leave!

"Sect Leader, it seems like you're stopping me from getting rid of that little mouse!" Tian Chun said, looking at Zhang Youji!

"Humph, how could I ever stop you? As for the little mouse, I just disdain to deal with them!" Zhang Youji wasn't about to admit he was blocking Zhang Youji, merely hinting with his words!

"Since the Sect Leader disdains to deal with them, then if I deal with them, it won't hinder the Sect Leader in any way, right?" Tian Chun said with a smile!

Zhang Youji was slightly anxious upon hearing this. If you really make a move, will Ye Tianfan have any escape route? Others might not really take issue, but with Ye Tianfan, it will certainly trigger a sect-wide confrontation.

Because, for the Taichu Sect, stirring up a righteous attack on the Demon Path is very easy, being the leader of the righteous path after all. With the conclusion of the organizational incident, the righteous path needs a battle achievement to stabilize their hearts, and if the Demon Path crashes into them at this time, not even a deity will be able to save them, let alone the Dark Four Holy Beasts. Even if it were the Dark One Hundred Holy Beasts plan, the righteous path would still find them out!

The reason the righteous path hasn't acted so far, is because, during that organizational incident, their Demon Sect and the righteous path cooperated to deal with that organization. To flip faces right after it ended would clearly not belong to the behavior of the righteous path, and they wouldn't bring themselves to act without reason against their former ally!

However, if Ye Tianfan were to fall here, it would be different. If it were just a common disciple, at most the Demon Sect would say 'righteous and devil are irreconcilable,' it's your own fault for dying here due to lack of skill. Besides, our Demon Sect didn't actively kill; you came to our turf and provoked us, so we retaliated; such reasoning would gloss it over directly.

Even if it couldn't be glossed over, they could just hand over someone, saying he's the one who killed that common disciple, or say the killer of the common disciple was also severely injured and soon perished; those are all viable options.

But Ye Tianfan is different. Now, not only does Zhang Youji hold Ye Tianfan in high regard, even the righteous path holds him in great esteem. Whoever has him will thrive!

Moreover, the Taichu Sect holds Ye Tianfan in such high regard that it's reached an outrageous level. When Zhang Youji first extended an olive branch to Ye Tianfan, he was immediately warned by the Taichu True Person, and that was during the Evil Qi incident.

Back then, Taichu True Person, full of murderous intent, said to him slowly, "If you dare have designs on Ye Tianfan, wherever you may hide, we will ensure the complete eradication of your entire Demon Sect, sever your inheritance, and disappear from this world, anyway the whole Demon Path is not only your Demon Sect, there are also other small sects."

And it was at that time, Zhang Youji became somewhat impatient to get Ye Tianfan, thinking if he willingly joined the Demon Sect, even Taichu True Person wouldn't be able to do anything, since it's not forcing Ye Tianfan to join!

However, as a result, Zhang Youji more than anyone does not want Ye Tianfan to die. It's not only because Zhang Youji values Ye Tianfan, but also because, if Ye Tianfan joins the Demon Sect, it would definitely be a huge slap in the face to Taichu True Person, to the Taichu Sect, and the entire righteous path.

But now, Tian Chun, who has become a bloodthirsty demon, has set his eyes on Ye Tianfan, and Zhang Youji cannot openly show any favoritism towards Ye Tianfan, otherwise, the followers under him would certainly be discontent!

Thus Zhang Youji could only subtly delay Tian Chun's action, with the goal of letting Ye Tianfan escape safely!

"Since the Sect Leader is not stopping me, then I'll go get rid of those little mice!" Tian Chun said, preparing to fly towards Ye Tianfan!

This movement made Zhang Youji even more anxious. If you truly went, tomorrow would be the demise of the Demon Sect, and Ye Tianfan, whom I see as the promising next leader, capable of leading the Demon Sect to a glory akin to today's Taichu Sect, must not be allowed to be dealt with by you!

"I say, with your current strength and status, going to handle those little mice, don't you find it degrading? Wouldn't it be better to send a few people to deal with them directly?" Zhang Youji said, not showing a hint of anxiety on his face!

"Oh?" Tian Chun halted his almost airborne move, turned to Zhang Youji, and said, "No, no, no, I love this game of cat and mouse, and especially the teasing process before the cat eats the mouse, that's what I love the most!"

After saying this, Tian Chun flew in the direction of Ye Tianfan!

Seeing this, Zhang Youji sighed, hoping Ye Tianfan could escape safely without dying here!

As Ye Tianfan and the others were discussing whether to leave, they suddenly felt Tian Chun's aura rapidly approaching them, and without further discussion, Ye Tianfan simply said "go," then everyone summoned their flying sword magical treasures and flew in different directions!
