I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1293

Chapter 1293: Chapter 1294: I, Li Xiaobai, am Back Again Chapter 1293: Chapter 1294: I, Li Xiaobai, am Back Again Ying Diao found himself speechless, the passion and fervor within him completely doused. His disciple had indeed preempted him in everything; even their resolve to face death was fostered under the influence of Li Xiaobai, making him wonder if he was getting too old for his position and should consider stepping down.

The speech he held was quietly tucked back into his pocket without a sound.

“Ahem, you've done well, truly worthy of being the number one steward of our sect, quite impressive. I am here today to select some elite warriors to head for the Western Continent Buddha Nation, to uphold the honor of our Sword Sect in front of the world,”
Ying Diao nodded and said.

“Rest assured, Sect Master, I have thought ahead and already selected the elite warriors–three Semi-Saints, one hundred at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, over three hundred at the Earth Immortal Realm, and over five hundred at the Human Immortal Realm, making a total of one thousand cultivators!”

Chen Yuan said cheerfully, oblivious to Ying Diao's increasingly rigid expression.

Behind him, a thousand people stepped forward and declared in unison, “In place, Sword Sect will toil like dogs and horses!”

The smile on Ying Diao's face gradually vanished, yet he found he could say nothing. The only thing he could say was that this steward was too perfect, leaving him no room even to choose.

“Only a thousand people?”

“This battle needs at least a hundred thousand from our Sword Sect, otherwise, how can we compete with others?”

“Reporting to the Sect Master, this was all at Brother Li's request. He mentioned that our Sword Sect's strength lies in quality, not quantity. Even if we go to battle, we're not the main force; there's no need to confront the enemy head-on, we can simply circumvent and flank them from behind!”

Chen Yuan explained.

Oh great, here we have the steward again, and Li Xiaobai…

“Well, what Sect Master Li said makes sense, our Sword Sect isn't the main force indeed, and manpower isn't our priority, but just to be sure, I'd still like to see them with my own eyes,”
Ying Diao sighed slowly, feeling a sense of helplessness.

“As you wish, Sect Master. I've considered these disciples as well, and they're just the reserves. If there are any among them that you find unsatisfactory, replace them immediately and send these disciples into battle!”

Chen Yuan respectfully stepped back, gesturing towards another group of waiting cultivators who, although high in realm, had weaker aura.

Ying Diao closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said, “You have arranged everything well. I am relieved that the Sword Sect has you. Since you have arranged everything ahead, this matter on the frontline will be managed by you.”

Chen Yuan bowed solemnly: “Yes!”

With Ying Diao's departure, Chen Yuan took full charge of the grand strategy, while Li Xiaobai wandered leisurely to Sword Sect's Second Peak, having anticipated this, knowing the sect disciples were well-managed under Chen Yuan, effectively rendering Ying Diao incapable of command.

He appeared on the Second Peak carrying an envelope, ready to activate the Formation to enter the Buddha Nation.

“Bring along the disciples from various sects who are cultivating within our Sword Sect.”

Li Xiaobai commanded, the other sects envied the resources of the Sword Sect but dared not challenge due to Xiao Lao Di's fearsome reputation. They could only arrange for their best disciples to train within the Sword Sect, hoping to both enhance their disciples' cultivation and secretly liaise to unearth the secrets of the ample resources hidden within the Sword Sect.

He planned to gather these disciples and accompany the fellow Sword Sect members into the Western Continent. Then, if other major sects wanted to suppress the Sword Sect, it would be a test to see if they would dare to make their move.

“Yes!”

Chen Yuan once again selected several dozen young cultivators from the crowd and lined them up behind the thousand cultivators.

“Many thanks, Peak Master!”

“We will definitely fulfill the expectations and will strive with all our might to rescue the Pure Land of the Buddhist Sect, and to save all beings under heaven!”

A group of spirited young talents, having spent such a long time on the Second Peak of the Sword Sect, realized that Tangneng First-class and Good Goods Shop were truly treasures of the human world, indispensable Magic Treasures for enhancing strength and cultivation level.

As of today, they are somewhat contented and have completely forgotten their original identities, now considering themselves just ordinary cultivators of the Sword Sect, ready to shed their heads and blood for the Sect.

The surrounding Sect Disciples all showed envious expressions, for a moment to fight shoulder to shoulder with Sect Master Li, to toil for the Sword Sect, was undoubtedly glorious.

“Hmm, I am very much looking forward to your performance.”

Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back, nodding as he spoke.

He activated the Teleportation Formation on the envelope and set off towards the Pure Land of the Buddhist Sect.

Li Xiaobai took the lead, followed closely by Ergouzi, Ji Wuqing, and Old Beggar, with Chen Yuan leading the team behind them. Above the Second Peak of the Sword Sect, a huge Spiritual Power Vortex appeared in the void, illuminated by golden Buddha light, forming a spatial channel.

The process was somewhat similar to the spatial tunnel formed by the Five-colored Altar.

“Kid, you still want Buddha to go to the Buddhist Sect?”

“With Buddha's reputation, if he enters the territory of the Buddha Nation, he would probably be chased by many Buddhist cultivators immediately!”

Ergouzi said somewhat lacking confidence, it was alright to create some trouble while hiding in the dark, appearing so openly in front of others made it somewhat nervous.

If Wuyuzi saw it, it would probably get slapped to death.

“What's there to fear, the Buddhist Sect no longer possesses the Power of Faith, the entire Mainland has been liberated by us, those old monks don't have any minions left, even if we are recognized, what can it do, it still has to rely on our power.”

Li Xiaobai spoke indifferently, his golden war chariot materialized, and he was the first to step into the spatial tunnel.

“That's the logic, but why bring this old guy along, without a Saint Realm powerhouse to preside, we are probably at a disadvantage!”

Ji Wuqing looked at the Old Beggar beside him with a full face of contempt.

“What are you talking about?”

The Old Beggar was bewildered, not clear about what exactly their trip to the Buddha Nation entailed, but could vaguely sense that this group had probably incurred a massive amount of hatred in the Buddha Nation.

“He has his own matters to attend to, not joining us.”

Li Xiaobai said, if there was a chance to enter the Buddha Nation again, Xiao Lao Di would definitely go digging graves to find that crystal old man, but it was unknown if he could pass this time's Heavenly Secrets Tower.

One thousand members of the Sword Sect grandly entered the spatial channel.

At the same time.

Inside the Buddha Nation of the Western Continent.

Inside the Great Thunderclap Temple.

People from various groups have almost arrived; several Super Sects occupy the core area to station and rest, while the other medium and small-sized Sects scatter around to organize their belongings.

One by one, golden spatial channels opened, continuously admitting cultivators, with none daring to let the Buddhist Sect face the Blood Demon Sect alone, all lending assistance, hoping the pattern of Central Origin Realm could continue to maintain its status quo, with major powers rivaling each other and balance not disrupted.

In an inconspicuous corner, a golden channel slowly opened and, like the many other Sect cultivators, a team slowly emerged, though few in number.

Li Xiaobai once again set foot on this land, his heart filled with myriad emotions.

“After several days, I didn't expect I, Li Xiaobai, to come back again!”
