Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 975 - 973: Splitting into Two Groups

Meanwhile, Wang Zhan and the others had traversed several thousand miles.

At this moment, Wang Zhan’s physical condition was extremely poor, and his face looked ghastly.

If it weren’t for Feng Tianci and others by his side, Wang Zhan might not have lasted long.

After walking a distance, Wang Zhan suddenly collapsed to the ground, his face showing the worst.

As a mouthful of blood sprayed out, everyone quickly gathered around Wang Zhan.

Luo Xue and the others quickly surrounded Wang Zhan, and Luo Xue was the first to speak: "Brother Wang, how are you?"

Ever since they followed Wang Zhan, they had never witnessed such a situation; it was the first time seeing Wang Zhan injured so severely.

Wang Zhan slowly opened his eyes and shook his head with a faint smile, saying lightly, "It’s nothing but flesh wounds, I can still hold on. We don’t yet know what Luo Junce and others are planning. We’ve suffered heavy losses here, so it’s best not to linger. We need to pack up and leave immediately."

As he spoke, Wang Zhan struggled to stand up.

Though his body was severely damaged, he couldn’t let so many people sacrifice themselves by staying with him.

Feng Tianci standing nearby grabbed Wang Zhan’s arm and suggested, "Let’s split into two groups for now. Your body can’t handle a long journey. Let’s send some people back to the Sky Pavilion first, and I’ll find a place for you to recuperate."

"I’ll go with you two."

Zuo Linglong stepped forward with resolve in her eyes.

Luo Xue and others also nodded in agreement, clearly none wanted to leave Wang Zhan at this time.

Seeing their faces, Wang Zhan smiled lightly, waving his hand, "Having all of you around will only make things worse. More people will slow us down."

"Let’s go with Feng Tianci’s plan."

He looked at Xuan Yu and Luo Xue, then waved them over. When they stood before him, he said, "You two take the others back to the Sky Pavilion immediately. Remember, no matter what happens, avoid fighting."

"I suspect the Tianyin Gate won’t give up easily. I don’t know when they’ll reach the Sky Pavilion, which is somewhat in our favor, at least we’re not at the end of our rope..."

"Once you’re back, focus on defense and have Dong Tianlei lead the overall strategy. If anything sudden happens, leave the Sky Pavilion immediately. As long as we’re all alive, we’ll quickly rebuild a new Sky Pavilion."

Everyone exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

It was truly the best approach at the moment.

Luo Xue, although worried about Wang Zhan, assured him, "Don’t worry, Brother Wang. We’ll take care of everyone in the Sky Pavilion and ensure their safety."

Wang Zhan smiled satisfactorily, "That’s good. But when you return, Xiang Tian will surely ask about me. Just tell him the truth, but make sure he doesn’t cause trouble. Also, you must follow Dong Tianlei’s orders unconditionally."

Right now, only Dong Tianlei can lead the overall situation.

Though Dong Tianlei isn’t the strongest in the Sky Pavilion, he once led a Sect, showcasing leadership skills that Wang Zhan values most.

Luo Xue nodded heavily, promising, "Rest assured, Brother Wang. We’ll handle everything without any issues. During this time, focus on healing and regain your peak condition, then reunite with us. Together, we can withstand anything, even the sky falling down."

All around nodded in unison, shouting, "Yes."

Wang Zhan smiled contently, patting Luo Xue’s shoulder, "Everything is arranged, so don’t waste any time, prepare for our separation."

Xuan Yu and Luo Xue exchanged glances and led the others quickly towards the Sky Pavilion.

Zuo Linglong stood firmly by Wang Zhan’s side, unwilling to leave.

Wang Zhan didn’t dismiss him. Though Zuo Linglong could refine elixirs, his combat prowess wouldn’t significantly aid the group at the Sky Pavilion.

Better to stay and help Wang Zhan instead.

As others departed, Feng Tianci helped Wang Zhan up, speaking slowly, "I know you’re being cautious, wanting everyone together. But the situation is more complex than you think. If the Tianyin Gate attacks, those inside the Sky Pavilion can’t defend themselves."

"You know the outcome if that happens?"

"The best strategy is to leave the Sky Pavilion immediately, spreading everyone out, denying the Tianyin Gate a chance. If Luo Junce arrives, few will escape unscathed."

Recalling his fight with Luo Junce, Feng Tianci felt uneasy.

His strength was formidable, but compared to Luo Junce, he was lacking due to Luo Junce’s Sky-suppressing Python and Guards Battalion, making them a powerful duo.

Even solo, Feng Tianci could overwhelm the Sky Pavilion, so Luo Junce’s arrival bodes ill.

Wang Zhan indeed worried about this. Despite being hands-off, the Sky Pavilion was one of his foundations, and relations with its members were amicable, making their potential troubles concerning.

Wang Zhan focused on Feng Tianci and said, "Even if I want them to leave, they likely won’t abandon the Sky Pavilion. You know most of them are skilled allies."

"When founding the Sky Pavilion, not only was it my effort but also those who helped me. I don’t want it to fall, and they won’t easily leave."

"Since you mentioned this, find me a place to settle temporarily. No need for healing assistance, I’ll manage. With the Fire Qilin and Zuo Linglong, you’re covered. The Fire Qilin can protect me, and Zuo Linglong offers support."

"You should quickly return to the Sky Pavilion. If the Tianyin Gate arrives, you can delay Luo Junce, allowing all to withdraw without severe losses."

Stunned by these words, Feng Tianci paused.

On the Star War Battlefield, everyone was self-centered. Rarely would anyone consider others, but Wang Zhan surprisedly urged him to leave, prioritizing his people’s protection.

Feng Tianci understood without his help, Wang Zhan’s recovery would be challenging. Even staying could offer great advantages.

Feng Tianci’s strength could assist Wang Zhan greatly.

Seeing Feng Tianci silent, Wang Zhan gripped his arm, resolute, "I know my condition worries you, but the Sky Pavilion is our foundation, needing secure departure. Don’t be stubborn."

"Let’s settle this."

Feng Tianci, intending to argue, saw Wang Zhan’s determined gaze and finally nodded.

He knew Wang Zhan valued others’ lives over his own.

Soon, Feng Tianci hurried away.

Wang Zhan swiftly led Zuo Linglong onto the Fire Qilin’s back, heading towards a mountain forest, needing an absolutely quiet place to recuperate.

With the Tianyin Gate lurking, he couldn’t afford problems.

Everyone now scattered; if encountered by the Tianyin Gate, even Wang Zhan could hardly retreat fully intact...
