Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1311: Chapter 702: Inventory

Great Cultivator Luo Pei’s attack on the White Emperor Sect cultivators’ gathering point this time shook the entire Central State Continent, especially with the fall of Great Cultivator Ning Xi. It made all forces reevaluate this Great Cultivator who emerged from a loose cultivator background.

Great Cultivator Mao Jing of the Fuliu Sect was taken aback by this news and remained unsettled for a long time.

Because Great Cultivator Ning Xi of the White Emperor Sect had combat power comparable to his own. If Great Cultivator Luo Pei could kill Great Cultivator Ning Xi, it meant that Great Cultivator Luo Pei could also easily kill him.

A battle between Great Cultivators is easy to win, but to kill, especially to kill a Great Cultivator of a superpower, is ten times harder than to achieve victory.

Which Great Cultivator from a superpower doesn’t have some life-saving means?

Even without life-saving means, it is very difficult to detain a Great Cultivator who wants to leave.

But look at Great Cultivator Ning Xi, even his Nascent Soul couldn’t escape.

”Did we make a mistake?” Great Cultivator Hu Shiming asked in a solemn voice.

He regretted it a little. They knew that Great Cultivator Luo Pei had some unique talents, but his talent in cultivation was already evident, at the level of a newly-advanced Great Cultivator, unlikely to advance further.

Although Great Cultivator Luo Pei was endowed with two divine skills, one of which was the ’Innate Wood’ skill, highly beneficial to the Fuliu Sect, they chose the White Emperor Sect for its influence as a superpower.

But look at what has happened, the White Emperor Sect has lost over a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators and a Great Cultivator.

Even as powerful as the White Emperor Sect is, they cannot withstand such losses.

The loss of over a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators and a Great Cultivator didn’t severely impact the strength of the White Emperor Sect, but what if this had happened to the Fuliu Sect?

Great Cultivator Hu Shiming looked at himself and then at Great Cultivator Mao Jing. The Fuliu Sect only had the two Great Cultivators in the sect. It’s unimaginable if it were him or Great Cultivator Mao Jing who fell.

”What if we were wrong? We must begin to guard against Luo Pei’s revenge!” Great Cultivator Mao Jing said with a bitter smile.

Witnessing how Great Cultivator Luo Pei responded to the White Emperor Sect’s aggression, he almost skinned the White Emperor Sect alive.

And as the Fuliu Sect betrayed Great Cultivator Luo Pei to the White Emperor Sect, Great Cultivator Mao Jing couldn’t believe that Great Cultivator Luo Pei wouldn’t seek revenge.

”How can we defend against it?” Great Cultivator Hu Shiming asked dryly.

There was a moment of silence in the grand hall. Yes, how could they possibly defend against Great Cultivator Luo Pei’s revenge?

Before, Great Cultivator Luo Pei was a Great Cultivator of the Fuliu Sect and knew many of its secrets, including the information on the resource points scattered across the Central State Continent.

Only a portion of a sect’s resource points are publicly known, while the majority remain confidential, unknown to any outsider.

If Great Cultivator Luo Pei were to retaliate based on this, the Fuliu Sect would have no means of defense.

Should Great Cultivator Hu Shiming or Great Cultivator Mao Jing station themselves at the resource points? With so many resource points, the two Great Cultivators couldn’t possibly guard them all.

Even if they did encounter an attack from Great Cultivator Luo Pei, neither Great Cultivator Hu Shiming nor Great Cultivator Mao Jing were confident in fending off his assault.

Though Great Cultivator Luo Pei was from a loose cultivator background, they believed he must have hidden some methods; otherwise, how could he have killed Great Cultivator Ning Xi? Without knowing Great Cultivator Luo Pei’s real trump cards, they couldn’t possibly leave the Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate.

While the Fuliu Sect was engaged in their discussion, on the other side, at the White Emperor Sect’s headquarters in the Central State Continent, Great Cultivator Yan Gao and several other Great Cultivators from Central State met again.

Only this time, Great Cultivator Ning Xi was absent. All the Great Cultivators wore solemn expressions, lacking the ease they had during previous discussions.

”Let’s discuss, how should we handle this?” Great Cultivator Yan Gao pressed his brow and looked at the other Great Cultivators.

Although he was in charge of this operation, each Great Cultivator represented their own faction, and he needed to solicit their opinions.

”Withdraw all cultivators back to West Yan Continent. It’s unwise for us to maintain an open formation and confront a Great Cultivator like Luo Pei!” Great Cultivator Shi Dong responded without hesitation.

He had had enough. This time, it was Great Cultivator Ning Xi who fell. His strength was not even greater than Great Cultivator Ning Xi’s. If Great Cultivator Luo Pei targeted him, he feared he would face the same fate as Great Cultivator Ning Xi.

Knowing how strong Great Cultivator Ning Xi had been, Great Cultivator Luo Pei was even more of a concern.

”If we leave now, where will the White Emperor Sect’s face be left? How can we explain ourselves when we return?” Great Cultivator Chang Ju, not wanting to let Great Cultivator Luo Pei go, waved his hand in protest.

”Face? Does the White Emperor Sect still have any face left? Without eliminating Great Cultivator Luo Pei, we can’t regain any!” Shi Dong sighed.

Great Cultivator Yan Gao couldn’t help but shake his head; he knew this as well.

”But if we withdraw the cultivators, wouldn’t that further embolden Great Cultivator Luo Pei?” Great Cultivator Chang Ju remained unconvinced.

”Withdrawing the cultivators would minimize losses. We’ll use intelligence to determine Luo Pei’s exact location and then dispatch multiple Great Cultivators to surround and kill. Only with Luo Pei’s fall can the White Emperor Sect regain its dignity!” Great Cultivator Shi Dong said solemnly.
