Chapter 270: Take It To Them

Xiang Yu and Li Yao sat side to side at the front. Directly across from them sat Wang Jian. To the side, Li Mei and Liu Feng sat opposite each other like before.

Wang Jian rose from his position and walked toward the center of the room. Once he reached the middle, he reached into his spatial ring and withdrew a round crystal before placing it at the center.

He extended his hand and channeled a steady stream of qi into the artifact, activating the communication artifact. The moment his energy made contact with the crystal, it responded immediately. A brilliant light shot upward from its surface, the light expanded and shifted, slowly taking shape until it displayed clear holographic projections of four distinct figures. _{f.(r)eewe/bnov\ll.com}

An Jing of the Whispering Shadow Sect, Huan Meng of the Illusory Valley, Sword Sovereign Bai Wu of the Thousand Blades Sword Sect, and Jin Guang of the Iron Fist Sect.

Now that all six powerhouses of the Eastern Continent were gathered, the meeting could begin. They wasted no time and started by addressing the issue at hand: the demon invasion. The corruption was spreading like a plague across their lands, and they could not afford to wait for reinforcements from the Central Continent. Every moment of delay meant the dark influence grew stronger and claimed more territory.

After many rounds of intense discussion, exchanging strategies and weighing their options, they finally reached a unified conclusion. They needed to take the fight directly to the source while the demonic lotus was still relatively weak. This would minimize the overall damage to the continent and also ensure a better fighting chance.

"Right now, I say we bring the fight to them when it’s still on our own turf," Huan Meng said as she snapped her fan close. "As the corruption advances, not only will they grow stronger, but it won’t be our turf anymore - it will be theirs."

The other leaders nodded in agreement.

"Just one problem though," Sword Sovereign Bai Wu interjected. "We still don’t have a reliable way to handle those who become corrupted. If someone like us ends up corrupted, we’re essentially handing more strength to the enemy."

The room fell into contemplative silence as everyone considered this.

Seeing everyone in thought, Li Yao raised her clenched fist and spoke up to assure them. "Don’t worry, if you’re corrupted, I’ll personally kill you," she announced matter-of-factly.

The other leaders looked at her nervously.

"Why would you say that?" Xiang Yu asked her in the spiritual sea.

"I was being comforting," Li Yao replied innocently, genuinely confused by his reaction.

[How is that comforting?] the Empress asked incredulously.

"Well, they can die with peace of mind knowing I won’t let them roam around corrupted," Li Yao explained sincerely.

Xiang Yu could only sigh at this. He then spoke up to address the others, "I have some ideas about this problem, but I still haven’t tested them yet, so it’s hard to say anything definitively."

The other leaders immediately perked up, looking at him with expressions of awe and hope. As expected of the Grand Elder, even in the face of such an unprecedented crisis, he can still come up with solutions. They couldn’t help but wonder how someone as pure and wise as the Grand Elder had ended up in that psycho’s clutches.

"Is there anything we can do to help, Grand Elder?" Wang Jian asked eagerly.

Seeing how enthusiastic and supportive they all seemed toward Xiang Yu, Li Yao’s expression shifted into a pout. "Hmph, I was also trying to help too, you know," she murmured under her breath.

The other leaders heard her complaint clearly, but they decided to ignore it.

"What help? Who wants to be assured that they’ll be killed?" they thought to themselves, though none of them dared voice these thoughts aloud. Instead, they maintained their polite and somewhat strained smiles.

...

"First, I need a sample of those creatures, then a volunteer who will be corrupted so I can try to see if there’s a way to get rid of the corruption," Xiang Yu said calmly.
