Chapter 1304 - 1304 I Won't Stay Behind
1304 I Won’t Stay Behind
What they did not know was that although there were less than a hundred people from the ancient sect scattered around the world, everyone had more or less inherited the ancient sect’s mental cultivation techniques. It was just that there were differences in strength.
Of course, the twelve guards of the ancient sect had to be the strongest, except Bai Zhou!
Even though they were shocked, they had dominated the international scene for many years. Moreover, they were ability users, so they quickly accepted this.
The two sides introduced each other briefly again and sat around each other.
Jian Ai was the first to speak. “Although I’m the sect master, I’m still young and haven’t experienced as much as you, so you can raise your opinions and objections on this matter. We’ll discuss countermeasures together. You don’t have to listen to my arrangements.”
Jian Ai’s action could be said to be quite democratic. Most importantly, to Jian Ai, the safety of these people was the most important, so she had to formulate a foolproof plan without mistakes to ensure that nothing went wrong.
She knew her abilities were limited for now. Even if she could do her best to be thorough in thinking about problems, she could not be completely dictatorial. After all, Yu Wuyuan and the rest were quick-witted people. She would need their guidance in something she did not expect.
Everyone nodded.
Jian Ai restrained her expression and placed the photos of the eight ability users on the table again.
Moreover, the arrangement they were placed this time was in order.
“According to Gale and Louise’s intelligence analysis, the strength rankings of these eight people are as follows,” Jian Ai said, but she didn’t forget to remind them, “Of course, there might be a deviation in the rankings because this is only the conclusion Gale and Louise gave during the investigation. However, we have no other way to understand them, so we can only use this as a reference.”
When everyone heard this, they looked at these photos. Si Yue, Xiao Zhen, and Chi Yang had fought Lei before, but in this ranking, Lei could only be ranked fifth!
This was already a ranking below average.
Xiao Zhen frowned and couldn’t help but say, “This Lei is only ranked fifth among the eight?”
This was the first time Ming Zui and the rest had seen these photos, let alone know that Xiao Zhen and the rest had fought Lei before. They couldn’t help but look puzzled. “Is there anything wrong?”
When Xiao Zhen heard this, he looked at Ming Zui, Luan Qingyang, and Duo, and explained, “Just this year, we accidentally fought this man called Lei. At that time, Si Yue, Chi Yang, and I joined forces, but we were almost not his match. This person’s ability can summon heavenly lightning. Although it’s not a strange ability, his lethality is extremely powerful. His speed is not even inferior to the power of darkness.”
Si Yue also said, “With such strength, he can’t rank in the top four of the eight and can only be ranked fifth. The four people in front are probably quite troublesome!”
“Irene, your mercenary group has been around the world for many years and has fought with ability users. Do you know anyone here?” Jian Ai looked at Irene and the rest and asked.
Irene and the rest looked at the photos again to identify them, but in the end, they shook their heads. “No.”
Seeing this, Jian Ai couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Other than Lei, the remaining seven were unfamiliar faces to everyone. How many people with special abilities were there in this world?
Jian Ai raised her hand and flipped the photo of the man ranked first on the table. She said, “Leave this person to Ye Liushang.”
Among the twelve guards, the top three were the strongest. However, there was a considerable difference in strength among the three of them.
Just like Chi Lian and Yu Wuyuan. When Chi Lian fought with Irene back then, the battle was in a deadlock. However, after Yu Wuyuan appeared, he subdued Irene with a move. It was enough to see that there was still a considerable difference in strength between the two of them.
Similarly, as the outstanding leader of the twelve guards, Ye Liushang’s strength was definitely above Yu Wuyuan’s.
Therefore, no one, including Yu Wuyuan, objected to Jian Ai’s decision.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Jian Ai continued, “There are only seven people left on the other side. Other than Bai Zhou and Ye Liushang, there are eleven people from the ancient sect – Yu Wuyuan, Chi Lian, Yun Buyao, Si Yue, Xiao Zhen, Luan Qingyang, Duo, Zhi Tong, Chi Yang, and I!”
“Irene, Andrew, Eugene, Robert, Gale, and Louise from the mercenary group. Six people!”
“There are seventeen people in total, so even if we fight two against one, there are still three people left! In other words, there are some inidividual groups with three people instead!”
“In addition, we still have the reinforcements from the ancient sect. The other party only has seven people. We’re acting secretly as well, so our chances of winning are still very high!”
Everyone nodded. Looking at the analysis in front of them, they indeed had a considerable advantage in numbers.
Prince Qi Ye could not have guessed that he had spent so much effort to find eight powerful ability users through a mysterious middleman, but almost twenty people had casually gathered on Bai Zhou’s side.
“Sect Master, don’t put yourself in danger, okay?” Luan Qingyang looked at Jian Ai and said.
The others also expressed their worry. Chi Lian said, “Sect Master, your power of blood hasn’t awakened yet. There are too many uncertainties in this battle. It’s better for you to stay in Baiyun City.”
“That’s right, Sect Master!” The others echoed.
Jian Ai chuckled and said, “I already knew that you would make such an arrangement, so I’ve long thought about it. This time, it’s useless no matter who says it. Even if I haven’t awakened my ability, the ordinary mental cultivation techniques of the ancient sect are enough to protect myself. I won’t let you fight in front and hide at the back.”
Bai Zhou said, “But…”
“No buts!” Jian Ai looked at Bai Zhou and said mercilessly, “You have no combat ability at all. I’m different from you. My current strength is not inferior to ordinary ancient sect members. Since they can stand up to reinforce us, why can’t I?”
As if seeing Jian Ai’s determination, Yu Wuyuan immediately said, “Since the Sect Master has already made up her mind, there’s no need for us to argue.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Wuyuan took the initiative to ask for orders. He said, “Sect Master, leave the person ranked second to me alone!”
When Jian Ai heard this, she couldn’t help but smile. She looked at Yu Wuyuan with a playful expression and said, “The person ranked second is a woman. Can you do it?”
However, Jian Ai initially wanted to tease Yu Wuyuan, but as soon as she finished speaking, Irene’s voice sounded indifferently. “He could do it!”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before chuckling. Bai Zhou looked at Irene and said, “It seems that Irene is still holding a grudge against Yu Wuyuan for not showing mercy to her at that time!”
