Chapter 12886: Defeat is inevitable?

Tianxia Buer knew that Jiang Feng in front of him was no ordinary opponent. Behind him stood the two powerful generals of the Donghai Jiang family, as well as the Jiang family's secret guards. They were all top figures in the martial arts world, and each of them was enough to make Tianxia pay a heavy price.

The outcome of this war was almost certain. If they chose to resist, the Tianxiahui would face a catastrophe. Even if they were lucky enough to win this battle, it would be a tragic victory. By then, the Tianxiahui would be seriously injured and become a fat piece of meat in the eyes of other forces, and could be devoured at any time.

Is all this just to protect a few disciples? Tianxia Buer couldn't help but wonder. He knew that as the head of Tianxiahui, he had the responsibility to protect the safety of every disciple, but in the face of this decision that concerned the survival of Tianxiahui, should he make concessions?
He took a deep breath, his eyes wandering between Jiang Feng and the gods behind him, constantly weighing the pros and cons in his mind. He knew that this was a difficult choice, but he had to make a decision as soon as possible because time was running out.

Just as Tianxia Buer was lost in thought, a voice suddenly broke the silence: "Master, you only need to hand over those three people, and you can save the entire Tianxia Association. This is simply a very cost-effective deal!"

This voice came from the Second Dean, who had always been dissatisfied with Ling Xiao. In Tianxiahui, Ling Xiao's rise and dazzling brilliance made him feel that his position was threatened. Now, facing such an opportunity, he naturally would not let it go, hoping to take this opportunity to completely eliminate Ling Xiao's power from Tianxiahui.

The Second Dean's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he seemed to be full of confidence in his own point of view. There was an indescribable light flashing in his eyes, as if he had seen the moment when his plan would succeed.

"My disciple also agrees with this view." Another person stood up. It was Ou Luan. Ever since he lost to Ling Xiao, the resentment in his heart had been burning like a raging fire. He had been thinking about revenge all the time. However, due to the difference in strength, he could only bury this resentment deep in his heart and endure it silently.

Today, this opportunity finally came. Ou Luan's eyes were shining with excitement and excitement, as if he had seen Ling Xiao's embarrassment and his own victory. He clenched his fists tightly, as if he could feel the pleasure that was about to come.

Ou Luan clasped his hands together, with a false sincerity on his face, and persuaded Tianxia Buer: "Master, although Meng Haoqing, Ling Bi, and Weiwei are also disciples of Tianxiahui, the other disciples are also our precious assets. You must think twice before putting the entire Tianxiahui in ruins for the sake of these three people."

Although his voice was gentle, his intention was very obvious. He wanted to use the Jiang family to eliminate Ling Xiao's best friend from the Tianxia Association.

However, just as he finished speaking, a figure rushed over like lightning and slapped Ou Luan hard on the face. It was Jin Yan. He stared at Ou Luan angrily, his eyes full of anger: "Shut up! You shameless villain!"

Jin Yan's voice was cold and firm. He pointed at Ou Luan and shouted, "You petty-minded fellow, isn't it because my boss Ling Xiao defeated you once? Why are you taking advantage of my misfortune and saying such things at this time?"

His chest heaved violently, and he was obviously extremely angry.

He then sneered, "And you still say that handing over those three people will protect the Tianxia Association? How ridiculous! Today the Jiang Family of the East Sea wants three people, tomorrow the Southern Region Holy Hall wants two people, and the day after tomorrow another force will want a few more people. I think there is no need to continue the Tianxia Association, just disband it!"

Jin Yan's words rang like thunder in everyone's ears, shocking everyone present. Every word he said was filled with anger towards Ou Luan and worry about the future of Tianxiahui, making people admire his outspokenness.

"Well said!" The Third Dean's voice was loud and firm, and his face was filled with a proud and determined smile.

He strode to the front of the crowd, scanning every disciple present with a sharp gaze, and said in an impassioned voice: "I completely agree with what this little brother said! Although our Tianxia Association is not as strong as the Donghai Jiang Family for the time being, if the Donghai Jiang Family wants to destroy our Tianxia Association, they will definitely pay a heavy price! If anyone feels that this battle is too difficult and does not want to participate in it, then you can choose to leave Tianxia Association, and we will never stop you."

The Third Dean paused, his eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness: "But what I want to say is that we don't need cowards in the Tianxia Association! What we need are warriors who dare to face challenges and fight for the Tianxia Association! Of course, if you choose to leave, then before you leave, I hope you can give up your martial arts."

"After all, when you joined the Tianxia Association, we gave you a lot of resources and martial arts secrets, which are our precious wealth. We did not charge you any tuition fees, so giving up your martial arts when you leave can be regarded as a kind of repayment to the Tianxia Association."

Every word of the Third Dean was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes revealed a kind of firmness and determination. His words made everyone present feel the unity and strength of the Tianxiahui, and also made them understand that the Tianxiahui was an existence that could not be violated.

The Second Dean was about to open his mouth to refute when the Fourth Dean also stood up. He said to the Master Dean in a firm tone: "Master Dean, please rest assured. In this battle, my world will not lose." His eyes flashed with confidence and determination, as if he had seen the dawn of victory in the battle.

The Fourth Dean knew the terrifying strength of Qiu Shui Kui in the cemetery. This hidden master was a trump card of the Tianxia Association. As long as Qiu Shui Kui took action, even if he did not use the best sword in the world, his deep internal strength and superb martial arts were enough to defeat those ignorant Donghai Jiang family warriors.

However, the Second Dean disagreed. He was so angry that his face turned red and his voice became sharp: "You lunatics, do you really want the Tianxia Association to be buried with Ling Xiao? What kind of magic power does he have that can make you so crazy and reckless for him?"

The headmaster sighed at this time, shook his head helplessly, and said to the headmaster: "Headmaster, when Ling Xiao left, I had some reservations. Although I didn't agree with him leaving, I finally let him go considering his good intentions."

"I didn't expect that the Jiang family of the East Sea is so ambitious that they actually want to wipe out our Tianxia Association. If we succumb to them today, how can we survive in the Southern Region in the future? The dignity and honor of our Tianxia Association will be gone."
