Chapter 265 You retreat, I want this opportunity

Zhang Chuwei's tone was full of bitterness.

Her words were indeed true. She glanced at Chen Changfeng and the others and said slowly.

"Daoyou Changfeng, you might as well take a look at the map. You will know whether what I said is true."

"Okay."

After hearing this, Chen Changfeng felt uncomfortable and started to check the map.

Chen Xianming, Chen Daohai, and several foundation-building casual cultivators also looked sideways and their eyes fell on the map.

To see which islands are around and what forces are deployed.

Many islands are marked with yellow and red sword-shaped patterns.

The yellow ones are second-tier islands, where purple mansion cultivators are stationed.

As Zhang Chuwei said, the closest to Shuanghu Island is indeed the Black Rock Island.

According to the distance conversion, it is 120,000 miles away.

At such a long distance, even if the purple mansion cultivators run at full speed, they can't arrive before the evil shark group.

The other second-tier islands are even farther away.

The geographical location of Shuanghu Island is, to put it bluntly, a bit off.

Otherwise, the last batch of cultivators would not have been unable to defend the islands, and would not have been defeated and even unable to wait for support.

Everyone knew this.

As for the first-line islands marked in red, those strategic fortresses, the nearest one is Qianlong Island, which is also 260,000 miles away.

This result once again verified Zhang Chuwei's words. There are support forces around, but they don't have so much time to wait.

"What Daoyou Zhang said is true, it really doesn't work to seek support."

Chen Daohai shook his head helplessly.

"This method is not appropriate, let's think of other ways."

The atmosphere fell into solemnity and calm.

Finally, it was Zhang Chuwei who broke the calm and suggested with a wry smile: "Everyone, since you can't beat them, let's run away."

As soon as this was said, everyone looked different.

I didn't expect that this foundation-building cultivator of the Xingzong would come up with such a solution.

Well... a way to run away directly.

But after thinking about it carefully, they not only couldn't refute it, but even felt it made sense.

After all, they couldn't just stay and wait for death, and they were so confident that they could fight against the third-level monster.

That was a mermaid witch, quite intelligent, able to cast spells, and control magic weapons, and its combat power was much higher than that of the same-level monster.

They naturally wanted to complete the task successfully, but when such an incident occurred, they couldn't just rush forward even if they couldn't win. Whose life was not a life?

Zhang Chuwei suggested running away, and the other foundation-building casual cultivators frowned and pondered, and also felt that this was out of helplessness.

So they nodded in agreement one after another.

"Then follow what Brother Daoist Zhang said, and the only way for now is to retreat first."

The Chen family also felt like they were facing a great enemy, and the atmosphere was depressing.

Chen Xianming himself was very afraid of the third-level mermaid witch.

He knew very well that even if he played all his cards and cooperated with the Skyfire Meteor Formation to trap and kill, he was still no match for the third-level mermaid witch.

There was no need to let the clansmen and fellow Taoists sit here and wait for death for the sake of military merit, and do stupid things like trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm.

After this, if they report the battle situation to Master Baiyu, the other party will not blame them.

If they want to blame someone, they can only blame their bad luck. According to their combat power, this mission is beyond their ability.

When everyone was preparing to evacuate Shuanghu Island, Chen Qingyun, who had not spoken, had a light flashing in his eyes, and secretly communicated with Chen Xianming.

When he learned that Chen Qingyun decided not to go with them, but would go in the opposite direction to meet the group of evil sharks and go to explore, Chen Xianming immediately expressed his objection.

"No, no, no, it's too dangerous. Are you sure you can deal with the purple mansion monster? This is not a joke."

"You will know after trying."

Chen Qingyun did not give a clear answer.

With the Ten Thousand Swords Map, the Nine Nether Puppet, and even the Covering Sea Ruler in hand, there may not be no hope of winning.

According to calculations, the number of this group of shark witches is between one thousand and one thousand and five, which is at least more than 13,000 when converted into military merits.

For them, both the third-level demon pill and the military merit points are quite attractive.

If they succeed in destroying this evil shark, not only will they benefit, but Chen Xianming and his team will not have to give up the mission and can continue to complete the mission.

This is a hypothesis, if they really find that they can't deal with it at that time.

With the help of Wind Spirit Wings, Five Elements Sky Escape, and Purple Spirit Robe, there is always a way to resolve the danger.

There is no need to hesitate whether to go or not.

There are not many opportunities to kill a third-level monster and destroy a large number of monsters alone.

If you can catch it, it's your own luck.

If you really can't beat it, don't force it, just evacuate directly.

Knowing that Chen Qingyun is cautious and may have a trump card in his hand that has not been revealed, Chen Xianming took a deep look at him, and finally didn't say much, but told him to be careful.

The result of the discussion of not choosing to defend but to evacuate directly was finalized.

The team that went out on patrol will also send a message to let them not return to Shuanghu Island, but run directly in the direction of Jinyuan Island.

Master Baiyu is not so heartless that he will not let them be cannon fodder and destroy Shuanghu Island.

The supplies on Shuanghu Island have been looted, and there is nothing left to rob.

The reason why the evil sharks still come here is probably to seek revenge.

Defending an empty island and wasting manpower in vain is not worth it no matter who judges it.

At worst, a stronger and larger team will be sent to capture it again later.

If you can retreat, then retreat directly.

There is also a Xingzong 100-man team in the team that needs protection.

These monks died here, and Xingzong must feel a little sad.

After sending an evacuation message to the patrol team, the team led by Chen Xianming sailed towards Jinyuan Island.

On the vast sea.

The two warships sailed for dozens of miles in a hurry.

Under the cover of Chen Xianming, Chen Qingyun quietly got off the warship on the pretext of retreat, spread his wind spirit wings and disappeared from the sight of the old patriarch.

According to the map, he flew tens of thousands of meters over the sea.

After Chen Qingyun determined the location of the group of evil sharks, he performed the Five Elements Sky Escape and turned into a stream of light and flew away at a high speed.

In just a moment.

He approached his destination and stopped above a fragmented and messy archipelago.

According to the map, this place is called the Star Shattered Archipelago, which is the smallest archipelago in the outer star sea.

There are only more than 200 islands in the archipelago, and they are all miniature islands.

The largest one is only ten miles in radius.

The smallest one is only a few dozen square meters.

Such a small island makes it only a resting place for monks. There is no town or market on it, which looks very desolate.

To outsiders, fighting here seems to have no effect. At most, it is to rest and recover mana.

For Chen Qingyun, he needs such a place to stay, so that he can hide his body and cover his own battle.

He hovered above the island, slowly expanded his spiritual sense to explore, and soon found the traces of the group of evil sharks.
