Chapter 2247: Chapter 1201: Siege Assault 3

With everyone’s calming presence, Dean Sheng finally steadied his nerves and sat down, but Yang Xiao noticed Sheng Yanlin’s eyes were bloodshot, brimming with killing intent, and his fingers were still trembling uncontrollably.

Then Hong Anguo began to introduce the situation: “Elder Sheng, everyone, now is not the time to be angry, Sheng Nijingxuan acted quickly this time, and they did an excellent job with their intelligence work, nearly deceiving us as well.”

“He kept the marriage strictly confidential, and the vast majority of academy elders are unaware. He wanted to cook the rice before it was mature and bring Bone Painting Tower in, putting us in a difficult position.”

Bone Painting Tower is also a major force, ranked among the Ten Great Sects. Once it allies with Yiling Academy, it would indeed be quite troublesome for them.

This trouble doesn’t lie in Bone Painting Tower’s strength but rather in its influence. The Ten Great Sects have countless connections between them. Pulling one strand moves the whole body, especially when facing the three major forces, they habitually stick together.

After all, everyone knows that only by grouping together can they avoid being defeated one by one by the three major forces, which is also a survival tactic they’ve long summarized.

“Elder Sheng, rest assured, my family head instructed before he left that no matter what happens, we will firmly stand by your side and assist you in annihilating the traitors.” Mo Qing, representing the Mo Family, was the first to express their stance.

“This is also our attitude from the Liu Family. We remember Elder Sheng’s assistance from years ago, please be at ease, Elder Sheng.” Iron-faced Judge Liu Hanzheng also reassured Sheng Yanlin.

“Our Patrol Defense Office fully supports Elder Sheng. This time, we have a valid reason to act, and for those matters you’re not convenient to handle, we can take care of them. Leave coordination with the United Federation to us,” stated Hong Anguo, providing the Patrol Defense Office’s stance.

“Thank you all for your kindness, I will not forget it,” Sheng Yanlin stood up, clasping his fists in gratitude to those present.

“First, let me introduce the current situation. The academy’s internal condition is not entirely clear for now, but according to our intelligence, there’s a suspicious elder-level combatant, seemingly from the Bone Painting Tower, residing there, so, including Sheng Nijingxuan, they have three Netherworld-level combatants.”

“That Sheng Jingxuan is in the Pseudo Realm, not worth worrying about; we also have an outstanding master like Elder Sheng overseeing us, three against three, we will surely win,” Elder Mo Qing was confident.

Among the three present, although Sheng Yanlin’s fighting strength is no longer at its peak, in truth, if one were to say who could fight the best, it would still be Sheng Yanlin, as years of knowledge and experience remain.

Everyone present has seen the wide world and knows that before the real Netherworld Envoy, so-called Upper Ghost Level Peak is merely an ant’s existence, only half-step Nether Realm is worth a look.

Under the premise that the Patrol Defense Office does not engage in direct attacks, the real key to victory in this battle lies in the hands of the Netherworld and half-step Nether Realm masters facing each other.

Hong Anguo continued, “Now, some people from Bone Painting Tower have already moved into Yiling Academy, but more urgently, their main force is still on the way.”

“This team is named for gift delivering but is actually reinforcement, coming to bolster Sheng Nijingxuan.”

“According to intelligence feedback, there are many masters in this team. The leader is the Little House Lord of Bone Painting Tower, with him there, there are no less than three Netherworld masters, and including the half-step Nether Realm and Peak Ghost Level Envoys, totaling no less than 10 people.”

“More troublesome is that they are also colluding with the United Federation, besides Bone Painting Tower’s masters, there are also personnel from the United Federation, led by a difficult personality of vice-president-level of the general association.”

“The specific identity and number of Union masters under this team’s command are still being investigated, but even with optimistic estimates, the opposing force’s strength is at least equivalent to the team sent by Bone Painting Tower.”

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere at the scene grew more oppressive, and unknowingly, the balance of power had shifted, with combatants analogous to the Little House Lord of Bone Painting Tower and the vice-president of the Business Association being beyond their ability to contend.

Seeing the tense atmosphere at the scene, Yang Xiao stepped forward to reassure everyone, “Everyone, don’t be tense, we’ll handle what comes our way. The Patrol Defense Office is not to be trifled with, you all focus on attacking the academy, leave the rest to us.”

“Indeed, Elder Sheng, these external reinforcements, including the three Netherworld Envoys from the Chamber of Commerce, are none of your concern. Leave them to us,” said Hong Anguo.

In conclusion, the internal rebellion in the academy needs Sheng Yanlin and his called helpers to handle, while stopping the opposing reinforcements from entering the city to support Sheng Jingxuan’s rebels is the task of the Patrol Defense Office.

“Director Hong, Chief Chen, everything is entrusted to you two,” Sheng Yanlin said sincerely.

“It’s our duty,” Hong Anguo and Chen replied in unison.

At this point, Yang Xiao settled his mind slightly, it seems Sheng Yanlin has no intention of betraying them; the reinforcements from the United Federation were mostly called by that bastard Sheng Jingxuan.

It can be imagined Sheng Jingxuan must have paid a large price for this.

Although Yang Xiao doesn’t like Sheng Jingxuan, he has to admit the man is indeed a character, ruthless and unscrupulous, doing whatever it takes to survive, he truly goes to great lengths.

What impressed Yang Xiao more was that this was all done while he wasn’t quite certain if the Dharma Sect had poisoned his brother Sheng Yanlin.

For a mere possibility, he made such grand arrangements, involving the Chamber of Commerce, the United Federation, and Bone Painting Tower, mobilizing two of the three major forces and one of the Ten Great Sects.
