Chapter 243: Dare to Question Yunyang Sect's Discernment Again?
After last night's unsuccessful attack, it's hard to predict how the Earth Demon will decide to proceed.
It might abandon the assault, or it could choose to wait for another opportunity to strike again.
Regardless of the Earth Demon's decision, it will only make things more difficult and troublesome for Yunyang Sect.
Last night's disturbance allowed Yunyang Sect's disciples to witness the terror of the Earth Demon.
As long as the Earth Demon remains, there's no guarantee it won't launch another attack.
Yunyang Sect's frontline will constantly feel like a sword hanging over their heads.
No one knows when it will fall, and there's no way to be certain.
They can only live in constant fear and anxiety, unable to find peace.
In the tent, Grandmaster Taiwu no longer allows them to discuss the order of garrison duty on the frontline.
He directly arranges the duty himself.
Even Grandmaster Taiwu has included himself in the rotation.
No one is certain when the Earth Demon will return or if it will come back at all.
But even a hint of its presence is enough to cause unease.
Without a Transcendent Power expert on guard duty, the morale of the frontline might significantly decline.
"Ever since I suggested seeking help from Chen Su, the elders have been opposed.
After this child joined our Yunyang Sect, you all looked down on him.
You were so sure of your judgment based on the hearsay of Ge Yingying and the others.
Now, let's reflect on why this situation has occurred."
Grandmaster Taiwu's words carried a hint of helplessness.
"Due to the slander from Tiangang City, many in Great Zhou are questioning our discernment.
They say we can't recognize talent or potential.
Before, I could confidently claim that Tiangang City's accusations were false.
But now, I'm ashamed of what has happened to Chen Su.
Despite his exceptional ability to deal with demons and my recommendation, he has been misunderstood.
If I hadn't vouched for him, wouldn't he have been directly suppressed by us?
Given these circumstances, how can we still claim that Yunyang Sect's discernment is accurate?"
The four elders, chastised, dared not speak.
"News of last night's events will spread throughout Great Zhou soon.
Headmaster Shang Yan's injury will also become common knowledge.
Think carefully, our sect's defensive line continues to shrink, yet Yunyang Sect remains mired in this predicament.
Even a Fifth Rank Warrior has been injured, and the wound is not minor.
If we can't turn the tide this year, Yunyang Sect will be further scorned by the younger generation of Great Zhou."
Grandmaster Taiwu expressed his grievances and then arranged some tasks.
"When the Fifth Elder returns, remind her to repeat everything I just said.
Also, please invite Hall Master Zhao Li to join us.
She has remarkable skills in dealing with demons.
We need her to help assess the current situation.
While you're at it, have her meet Chen Su as well."
Today, Grandmaster Taiwu arrived at the frontline defense line.
After discussing with the elders, he sent them back to the sect.
He also escorted the injured disciples back.
The vast Yunyang Sect needed its high-ranking members to manage its affairs.
With the frontline stabilized, the rear must not encounter any issues.
After making the arrangements, Grandmaster Taiwu found Su Chen and walked with him.
They went to inspect Su Chen's layout from the previous night.
Upon reaching the ambush area, they saw that many traps had been triggered by the demons, creating obstacles and slowing down their attack and escape.
However, Yunyang Sect was unprepared, allowing the Earth Demon to escape.
Su Chen introduced his layout to Grandmaster Taiwu.
From the layout, if there were Transcendent Powerhouses on the frontline, this Earth Demon should not have survived.
After all, the Earth Demon's attack last night had its route and position exposed.
Headmaster Shang Yan was able to buy some time.
Its advantage was not in the surprise attack, but rather, everything was under the control of the frontline.
If it weren't for Ge Yingying and the others, it would have been a certain death.
Thinking of this, Grandmaster Taiwu felt a bit agitated.
A matter that should have been resolved has become more complicated.
During their conversation, Grandmaster Taiwu mentioned the cultivation of Scout Disciples.
In his words, he was still praising the Yunyang Sect, even while discussing the troubles it faced.
After all, he wanted to recruit Chen Su to the Yunyang Sect, and if he kept saying the Yunyang Sect was inadequate, would Chen Su still want to join? But Su Chen heard a lot between the lines.
Grandmaster Taiwu had tried many methods to solve the problem of the Scout Disciples last year.
The disciples who had previously lost their reconnaissance positions were brought back by Grandmaster Taiwu.
Compared to before, the contribution of their merits had also increased significantly.
But the results were not obvious.
Su Chen understood the reason.
These senior brothers and sisters had some abilities.
However, when compared to Su Chen in reconnaissance and information gathering, the gap was still evident.
This is why, after Su Chen joined the Yunyang Sect, the entire sect began to have the capability to advance the frontline.
They were able to achieve a seven-tenths accuracy rate, which was already very impressive.
Grandmaster Taiwu and the other high-ranking members wanted to replicate the over nine-tenths accuracy rate that Su Chen had achieved.
Not to mention that it had been two years since Su Chen's departure, even in their best state, it would be difficult for these senior brothers and sisters to achieve that level.
During their conversation, Grandmaster Taiwu asked Su Chen what kind of disciple would be suitable for learning to deal with demons.
Su Chen's answer was straightforward.
Strong senses, an agile mind, and the ability to focus on research.
Of course, in Su Chen's opinion, even with these abilities, the accuracy rate would only reach eight-tenths at most.
He himself relied on the assistance of his Demon Hunter Expert Heaven Destiny to surpass ordinary people.
Su Chen had no other requirements. He just hoped that they wouldn't be as arrogant as the previous few.
He unconsciously looked down on Chen Su, so whatever he taught them, they would subconsciously reject first.
After a conversation, Grandmaster Taiwu went to arrange related matters.
The Earth Demon showed no signs of returning after this surprise attack, and things became a bit more relaxed.
Even traces of smaller demons were not found.
On the second day after the attack, Hall Master Zhao Li came.
Grandmaster Taiwu introduced her to Su Chen.
After being in the Yunyang Sect for so long, Su Chen naturally knew Hall Master Zhao Li.
He had also read the books written by Hall Master Zhao, which discussed the living habits of demons and some ways to deal with them.
A large sect like the Yunyang Sect naturally had many capable people.
Zhao Li was one of the Hall Masters that Su Chen admired.
She didn't like empty talk and focused on research.
If it weren't for Hall Master Zhao Li's many reminders last year, the Yunyang Sect would have faced even more difficulties.
Zhao Li had also heard that Su Chen had previously exposed the Earth Demon's traces, and she had more expectations in her heart.
The two began to cooperate and conducted a detailed investigation on the frontline of the Yunyang Sect.
They even ventured a bit deeper into the wilderness.
Compared to others, Su Chen felt that communicating with Hall Master Zhao was much more relaxed.
Both of them gained insights from their conversation.
