Chapter 314 - 191: Black Mountain Sect’s Decision



Within a majestic hall of the Black Mountain Sect, many terrifyingly powerful figures stood silently.

Among them, a Golden Body Realm expert stepped forward and raised his fist.

“Sect Master, the Demon Suppression Army is now attacking in large numbers, and the White Lotus Sect is bearing the brunt of it. As their subordinate force, we will inevitably be affected. In this crisis of survival, what should our Black Mountain Sect do?”

After he finished speaking,

the atmosphere around the Black Mountain Sect Master, who was surrounded by golden runes and exuded a terrifying aura, was calm and indifferent.

“The Demon Suppression Army is coming with great momentum and launching attacks on multiple fronts. It won’t be easy for them to take down the White Lotus Sect. Our main decision today is whether to remain neutral or support the White Lotus Sect.”

Whether it’s the White Lotus Sect or the Demon Suppression Army, both are massive forces. If the Black Mountain Sect does not handle the situation properly, they would suffer severe losses or even face complete destruction, and their inheritance would be severed. They must be extremely cautious.

“Sect Master, the Demon Suppression Army is now coming with overwhelming momentum. Even if the White Lotus Sect is still very powerful, I’m afraid they will not be able to resist. Our Black Mountain Sect has suffered severe losses before, almost severing our inheritance. Now, we have just recovered half of our strength. If we exhaust it again here, I’m afraid it will be impossible for us to rise again.

I think we should hold our troops for now, wait for the fate of the White Lotus Sect after the first wave of attacks from the Demon Suppression Army, and then decide whether to support them or not.

If even the White Lotus Sect cannot withstand the onslaught, then we should consider relocating our sect.”

The intention of this Golden Body Realm Elder was very clear: he wanted to remain passive and watch the situation unfold.

If the Demon Suppression Army is just a paper tiger, he will firmly stand by the White Lotus Sect.

If the White Lotus Sect cannot resist, then the Black Mountain Sect can only abandon their sect.

As his words fell, many powerful figures in the hall changed their expressions. Apparently, they were all somewhat tempted by this proposal.

None of them dared, as they were afraid of Morigin and even more of the Demon Suppression Army.

The Demon Suppression Army, with their weapons pointed, was invincible in battle.

Since 800 years ago, when the Yuan Emperor slaughtered many sects and severed their inheritances, the Hundred Sects were forced to leave the Nine Provinces and relocate to the coastal areas.

Afterward, the Demon Suppression Army continued their cleansing, and many sects were destroyed.

The ferocity of the Demon Suppression Army was awe-inspiring among the Hundred Sects, especially for these subordinate forces, who were reluctant to confront them easily.

However, they did not speak up, but instead turned their eyes towards the figure above them.

Apart from the Supreme Elder, the only one who could make a final decision was their Sect Master.

Even if they talked too much, it wouldn’t matter in the end. The final decision would still be made by the Sect Master alone.

Different opinions just needed one voice to be heard.

Time slowly passed, and the Black Mountain Sect Master remained silent. After a while, the golden light in his eyes flickered as it fell on a closed-eyed white- haired elder below.

“Great Elder, what’s your opinion on this matter?”

The Sect Master’s voice was indifferent, making it hard to tell whether he agreed with the suggestion of the Golden Body Realm Elder.

Upon hearing this, the white-haired elder, who was the Great Elder of the Black Mountain Sect, slowly opened his murky eyes and shook his head slightly.

“The Fifth Elder wants to ensure his own safety and preserve the strength of the sect. At any other time, although there would be losses, it may not be a bad approach. However, at this critical moment, it’s not appropriate.

Firstly, our Black Mountain Sect is a subordinate force of the White Lotus Sect. For hundreds of years, we have been under their protection, which has allowed us to catch our breath. If we just stand by and watch, it would be hard to justify our actions. Even if we relocate our sect to another place, how could we establish ourselves among the Hundred Sects?

Secondly, if the White Lotus Sect survives the onslaught of the Demon Suppression Army, how should our Black Mountain Sect deal with their retribution afterward?

We may not be able to provoke the Demon Suppression Army, but we can’t afford to provoke the White Lotus Sect even more.”

As the words of the Great Elder fell, the powerful figures in the hall all showed grim expressions.

If the Black Mountain Sect were to withdraw at this time, even if they survived in the future, they would have no foothold in the coastal areas.

But if they don’t withdraw, they may face complete destruction and the severing of their inheritance.

Advancing is not an option, retreating isn’t either.

In this dilemma, the ultimate cause is still their lack of strength.

During the peak of the Black Mountain Sect, they were not inferior to the White Lotus Sect, but now they were in such a predicament, causing many powerful figures in the hall to feel helpless.

“Keeping ourselves safe can be done, but even so, one must rely on their own strength. Without it, there’s no way the Black Mountain Sect can have a foothold in the coastal area.”

The Black Mountain Sect Master slowly spoke.

“Eight hundred years ago, our Black Mountain Sect was also prominent among the Hundred Sects, not falling short even when compared to the White Lotus Sect.

But it was because we wanted to wait and see, protect ourselves, that in the end, the sect’s upper echelon was destroyed and our inheritance was nearly severed.

Now, we face another moment of life and death where we must make a choice. We no longer have the foundation we had eight hundred years ago. If we make another wrong decision, there will be no second chances.”

The voice of the Black Mountain Sect Master gradually turned cold.

“Therefore, we have only one choice – to firmly stand by the White Lotus Sect.”

As his words came out, the hall fell into silence.

One word decided their fate, such was the authority of the Black Mountain Sect Master.

However, even after making a choice, the specific execution of the plan still needed careful consideration and deliberation.

“Sect Master, we will not oppose your decision, nor do we have the right to. However, I believe that even if we stand firmly by the White Lotus Sect, we should still ensure that the Black Mountain Sect does not suffer too much. Otherwise, it would be no different from being exterminated.”
