C762 Enclosure
Currently, those few people who were able to help Taoist Palace to resolve the crisis were all unable to withdraw. This placed the Taoist Palace in a dilemma.
First of all, Black And White Striped Snake at the bottom of Sunset Lake could have helped Taoist Palace to repel powerful enemies. With Black And White Striped Snake here, as long as he was willing to act, no matter how many hot weapons the Martial Arts Association released, it would be useless, unless they used nuclear weapons.
However, nuclear weapons were destructive, and they covered an extremely wide area, which had a great impact on the ecology of Earth. Even if the one on the top of Martial Arts Association was an official, it was still impossible to use nuclear weapons.
Furthermore, Martial Arts Association actually didn't want to eliminate them, he just wanted to persuade them to surrender. As long as they were willing to surrender, then they would accept the Taoist Palace as a subordinate unit of the Martial Arts Association and become a direct subordinate sect of the Martial Arts Association.
However, how could Gao Pei easily agree to what they said and hand over the Taoist Palace? He was basically taking the initiative to extend his neck and have the other party put a dog chain around his neck. From now on, the other party would not treat him as a human, nor would they treat him as a dog.
Unfortunately, the Black And White Striped Snake could no longer appear after transforming into a dragon and could no longer move. It could only wait until after transforming into a dragon and shed its skin before it could appear.
It was not that it was unwilling to come out, it was just unable to show itself. Furthermore, with its current state, even if it risked giving up the opportunity to transform into a dragon to appear, it could not stop these firearms.
Now that it was on the verge of breaking through, its strength was less than one in ten.
Then there was the Mount Lu's Old Ape, but it had not moved since its statement on the forum last time.
From what the disciples of the Mount Lu said, it seemed like he had gone into seclusion, because the Old Ape had also sensed the opportunity to break through, and wanted to use it to step into the legendary realm.
Actually, there were quite a few experts like them in the entire land of the Nine Provinces. Many experts of this level felt this opportunity and immediately chose to go into seclusion.
After all, whoever would be the first to step into the legendary realm would be able to deploy even earlier. With this advantage, they would be able to obtain even more benefits.
Taking a step back, even if they didn't deploy, they would still be able to go straight to the enemy's door after breaking through. Who would be willing to fall behind by even half a step in this situation?
"Taoist Palace, if you don't surrender soon, don't blame us for being impolite!" The people from Martial Arts Association were still making the announcement, and had even mentioned Taoist Palace spokesman Gao Pei in the forums.
Although they had been tormenting themselves for such a long time and even sent out missiles and other weapons, they did not attack directly, but chose to delay it, because the latest order to descend was not to destroy the Taoist Palace, but to make the Taoist Palace yield like an eagle.
They immediately surrounded the entire Sunset Peak, preventing anyone with Taoist Palace from descending. Although there were trees and water on the mountain, there was always a time when they would run out of food. By the time they ran out of ammunition, it would be time for them to surrender.
Thus, when the people from the Martial Arts Association received this order, they immediately stationed themselves outside the Sunset Peak.
"You want to force us to submit? Dream on!" Gao Pei quickly spoke up on the forum and intentionally ridiculed, "If you have the guts, open fire. Otherwise, when we, Recluse, return, we will definitely come to the Martial Arts Association Headquarters and demand an explanation from you!"
As Gao Pei's speech spread through the forums, it immediately attracted the attention of the people who were discussing it. Many people praised Gao Pei to be too handsome, and there were even some who weren't too interested in Taoist Palace, but because of Gao Pei's domineering speech, they became Gao Pei's fans, and started to guard Taoist Palace with the rest of the netizens.
"My Martial Arts Association is not good, I can't just talk."
"Exactly, give him a few shots and see if he can still be arrogant!"
"Tsk, such a domineering Taoist Palace, yet you guys are actually quite strong. Don't you think that Martial Arts Association is too shameless to do such a thing?"
The discussion on the web was in full swing, but within the Martial Arts Association, there were huge differences because of this matter.
Some of them were more conservative and believed that they should follow the orders given by their superiors. They did not need to use guns and cannons to force them to submit.
However, there was still a group of people who could not watch Taoist Palace's speech or actions, and believed that they could directly open fire, penetrate their defensive arrays, and directly send people to attack them. They were confident that they could attack Taoist Palace within three days.
In addition, this group of radicals directly followed their superior leader in reacting to this matter. As a result, they received a reply, 'Let's just wait and see'.
The night passed in this manner.
At this moment, Ding Yi and Wen Yi had completely lost their lives. It was as if they had become corpses, frozen forever in this ice cave with no one around.
If it weren't for the weak light flickering between their eyebrows, no one would have dared to believe that they were actually still alive.

Qingfeng City, Ling Family.1
Early in the morning, Ling Xuan ran to the secret room and asked about Ah Ji's injuries with concern.
Ah Ji did not say much and directly said that with the help of the medicine and the Blood Ganoderma, not only did his injuries heal, his strength even improved a bit.
Hearing Ah Ji's words, Ling Xuan only believed the first half of the sentence and directly left out the second half. This was because the worry on his face did not diminish in the slightest.
"Xuan, Ah Ji, let's go." At this moment, Ling Xue arrived.
Hearing his sister's words, Ling Xuan smacked his forehead. Only now did he remember that he did not know Ah Ji's name, so he asked curiously: "You are called Ah Ji? "What a strange name."
"Xuan!" Ling Xue frowned and looked at her brother reproachfully.
Who would be so rude as to directly speak their names and even talk about them? This was the most impolite thing to do.
Hearing his sister's words, Ling Xuan stuck out his tongue.
"I'm fine." Ah Ji didn't mind. He looked at Ling Xuan with a smile and said, "My name is Xie Ji."
"But other people like to call me Ah Ji."
"Alright, let's go." An apologetic look appeared in Ling Xue's eyes as she nodded towards Ah Ji. Then, she looked at Ling Xuan and continued, "The elders of our family are all waiting outside. We'll set off after drinking."
Ling Xuan responded and looked at Ah Ji.
Ah Ji naturally had no objections, he only wanted to hurry up and head towards Sword Hall. If he joined Sword Hall earlier, he could protect his Xiejia Village from getting infected.
I don't know how the Xiejia Village is doing right now either.
As they thought, the three of them went outside.
Right now, the courtyard was already filled with people who were all wearing the same set of Ling Family. They were all standing on the left, and if one took a rough look, there were probably at least fifty or sixty people there.
On the right, there were four men and women wearing different clothes.
These four people were three men and one woman. Whether it was in terms of clothing or height, they were all very different.
However, what shocked Ah Ji the most was not these four people, but the beautiful woman who wore a purple dress who stood beside the Ling Family Patriarch.
