Chapter 432: Battle in the Flower Realm (1)
Fairy Qing's face, originally indifferent, was now filled with anger as she looked up at Old Demon Tian Ming.
Fairy Hua's eyes also revealed a hint of killing intent as she scanned the large group of people behind him.
This time, the Profound River Alliance had clearly emptied its nest. There were at least nearly a hundred people present, and almost half of these strong individuals possessed the strength of a Dou Venerate. With this lineup, coupled with the power of Old Demon Tian Ming at the high-level Half Saint, they were undeniably a formidable force.
However, as formidable as this lineup appeared, it was nothing more than a pipe dream if they thought they could wipe out the Flower Sect within the Flower Realm.
After all, the Flower Sect possessed two Half Saints, whereas the Profound River Alliance possessed only one. As long as one of the Half-Saints could temporarily restrain Old Demon Tian Ming, the rest of the Alliance would be doomed.
"Hehe, I've come today just to give you a good choice, based on our past acquaintance," Old Demon Tian Ming's indifferent voice resonated from the sky.
"Today, you can choose to join our Profound River Alliance, or of course, you can choose not to. As long as your Flower Sect retreats from the territory of the Profound River Alliance, at least ten thousand miles away, and promises not to have any disputes with us in the future, my Profound River Alliance will leave today." Old Demon Tian Ming's words made many of the Flower Sect's elders' expressions slightly change.
"Fool's talk!" Fairy Qing's voice was icy cold. Retreating ten thousand miles away? Did that not mean they had to leave their territory like a beaten dog? And promising not to have any disputes with the Profound River Alliance in the future? If they agreed, how could the Flower Sect continue to establish itself in Central Plains?
As for joining, it was even more impossible!
"These guys are clearly provoking us," Hua Yi said through gritted teeth as she glared at Old Demon Tian Ming.
The Profound River Alliance should also be well aware that their demands were absolutely impossible to agree with.
Fairy Qing suddenly regained her calm demeanor and locked her gaze onto Old Demon Tian Ming, who in turn had a cold smile on his face as he stared back without any sign of backing down.
Neither side's elders and powerful experts spoke, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
"Fairy Qing, have you made up your mind?" After observing for a moment, Old Demon Tian Ming raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Do you really think the Profound River Alliance has the strength to say such things?"
"In that case, you're not choosing to agree, I suppose?" Old Demon Tian Ming's cold smile reduced slightly as he spoke slowly.
Two Half Saints! Together with Old Demon Tian Ming, that made a total of three! This lineup caused many to draw a sharp breath on the spot. Some of the Flower Sect's elders even had their faces turn pale.
"Fairy Qing, do you need more time to consider my conditions?" As his gaze wandered over Fairy Qing's body, Old Demon Tian Ming's face twisted into a sinister smile, and his eyes gleamed with greed. A high-level Half Saint would be an ideal cauldron for breaking into the Dou Saint realm.
Fairy Qing's face darkened, and her hand clenched slowly within her sleeve.
"Grand Elder, surrendering is useless. With the means of the Hall of Souls and the Profound River Alliance, they won't spare us," Hua Yi said with a cold face, her beautiful eyes shimmering with determination. "Now, besides fighting to the end, we have no other way out."
The strong members of the Flower Sect also looked at her, awaiting her decision.
Fairy Qing nodded slightly, understanding the logic.
"If that's the case... then we'll fight them to the end!"
Old Demon Tian Ming had been closely observing Fairy Qing's changing expressions, and upon seeing the resolute look on her face, he understood that the Flower Sect would never submit. His sinister smile deepened, "It seems that today, the Flower Sect will inevitably be drowned in a river of blood."
"Perfect! There are many powerful cultivators here. I can gather some souls for the Hall of Souls," sneered Gui Li. He didn't even bother to regard the Flower Sect as a threat. With two high-level Half Saints and one intermediate-level Half Saint on their side, the Flower Sect was no match for them. Engaging in this battle today would certainly lead to the Flower Sect being wiped out from the Central Plains forever.
"Act! Spare those who surrender, kill those who resist!" Once the decision to fight was made, Old Demon Tian Ming didn't allow the Flower Sect to continue discussing countermeasures. He stomped his foot and a cold voice, filled with killing intent, resounded through the air.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing Old Demon Tian Ming's order, the Profound River Alliance experts behind him instantly displayed their killing intent. Powerful Dou Qi erupted from their bodies, transforming into streams of light as they swiftly descended upon the Flower Sect.
The Flower Sect's strong members were not to be outdone. They charged forward, colliding fiercely with the Profound River Alliance experts in mid-air. As the battle erupted, explosions rang out throughout the Flower Realm.
"Kill!"
"Hehe, Brother Gui Li, let's capture Fairy Qing right now!" As the battle erupted, Old Demon Tian Ming burst into laughter and turned to Gui Li, suggesting a joint effort.
"Sure."
Gui Li nodded sinisterly. He had some old grudges against the Flower Sect, which was why he didn't say no when Old Demon Tian Ming approached him. Of course, he only agreed after Old Demon Tian Ming paid a significant number of soul bodies.
