The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 1111 The Plan to Cut Off the Tail for Survival

Long Ling glanced at her hand, clearly somewhat regretful, realizing she had been a little too slow earlier.

It's such a pity that they only managed to cripple the old man's arm and leg.

While Long Ling was still feeling regretful, the old man who had already escaped was now filled with boundless hatred.

His men, after examining the old man's injuries, were so frightened that they knelt down on the spot.

"Your...Your Excellency, your injuries..."

With the forbidden techniques they possess, let alone broken bones in the hands and feet, even severed hands and feet can be reconnected.

But now their forbidden techniques are completely ineffective; they can't even detect the extent of the bone damage.

There is only one possibility for this to happen.

That is, the person who injured the Venerable One was not only ruthless, but also tampered with the location of the wound.

The old man was enduring excruciating pain. He could clearly sense the energy fluctuations left on his wounds when the dragon spirit severely injured him.

If that energy doesn't dissipate, his injuries will never heal.

"Go... and bring me the energy stone!"

The trembling subordinates kneeling on the ground thought that this time, they were doomed and would not even be able to leave behind a complete corpse.

At this moment, upon hearing the old man's words, they were somewhat taken aback, as if they were doubting whether they were hallucinating.

"Go!"

The kneeling men then realized that they hadn't been hallucinating.

The group immediately scrambled to move the energy stones.

This energy stone is a treasure; it can absorb all the residual energy within a ten-mile radius.

This is why they don't need to put much effort into hiding themselves; as long as they have this energy stone, no one can sense their exact location.

Before long, a few people came over with a stone carving that was about half a person's height.

"Your Excellency, the energy stone has been moved here."

The old man's face was now quite pale, not only because his injuries were severe and the pain was unbearable.

Also, the energy that the dragon spirit left in his wound seemed to have a destructive effect.

They kept attacking parts of his body other than his wounds, making him feel like all the bones in his body were about to shatter.

As the energy stone approached, a glint of longing flashed in the old man's eyes.

Only after experiencing this excruciating pain did I realize how fortunate I am to be healthy.

The old man placed his hand on the energy stone, hoping it would absorb the energy fluctuations that didn't belong to him.

After a long time, the old man's injuries remained unchanged.

"Pfft~"

After realizing that the energy stone was completely useless to him, the old man was overwhelmed with emotion and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Sir!"

"Sir!"

"Sir!"

……

Unfortunately, by this time, the old man had completely passed out and could not hear the exclamations of his men.

If Long Ling saw this, he would definitely say "serves him right" and then gloat.

The karma he sowed wasn't so easily eradicated; unless he died, those energy fluctuations would never dissipate. Long Ling continued wandering the streets for a long time, finally getting a fairly complete understanding of the situation in Lotus City.

Based on what Yunran had said before, he now had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

As long as no one causes trouble, this mess will soon be over.

As for those who want to release vengeful spirits to devour other offerings and transform them into demonic spirits.

Long Ling had already guessed who it was.

Now, all we need to do is wait.

The Xuan Masters of Fuhu City have all gathered at the Lotus City Xuan Master Association.

Apart from those who were sent out, everyone else waited here with gloomy faces.

This infuriated the Xuan Masters of Fuhu City.

"Such a big thing has happened in Lotus City, why aren't you thinking about how to solve it? Instead, you're just sitting here!"

The people of Lotus City, however, felt that these people were talking without understanding the situation.

"That's because you don't know who your opponent is. If you did, you would have made the same choice as us!"

Ever since I learned that what happened in Lotus City was the same as what happened in that small town where everyone was wiped out.

These sorcerers were trying to find a way out for themselves.

As for the people of the city, they were helpless. It wasn't that they didn't want to save them, but that they simply couldn't.

At this point, it's only natural for them to want to save themselves and leave a way out for their descendants.

Even some prominent families within Lotus City brought out their family heirlooms.

They only hoped that some of their descendants could survive; everyone was making plans to cut their losses and save themselves.

But now, these people from Fuhu City are criticizing them for not doing enough.

"What exactly does Lotus City want to do?!"

Looking at the people who came to support them, President Liu of the Lotus City Mystic Master Association couldn't bring himself to lie.

All I could do was tell the whole story.

"That expert probably couldn't suppress the situation here either, and could only buy us some time."

People in your Fuhu City know about the destruction of that small town, so you should know even more that there is no way to avert such a disaster.

All we can do now is gather as much strength as possible and leave a glimmer of hope for Lotus City; that's the limit of what we can do.

Upon hearing this, those who had previously stood on the moral high ground, wanting to say that the people of Lotus City were cowards and afraid of death, suddenly didn't know what to say.

If you say the people of Lotus City are ruthless, they really are ruthless, completely disregarding the lives of ordinary people.

But if you say they were wrong, they were simply making a choice between a bad outcome and an even worse one.

It's better than all of them dying here because of this disaster.

After a long silence, someone from Fuhu City finally spoke up: "Chairman Liu, is it really impossible to find that expert to think of a solution?"

Now that he's already taken action, and his men are also remaining in Lotus City, can he really bear to see so many lives lost?

Chairman Liu had thought the same way before, but the result was not as expected.

The current situation is obviously very bad.

But the more this was the case, the less they dared to force it, for fear of angering that expert and then not only refusing to help them.

They would be at a greater loss if they simply removed the means that were helping them buy time.

Making the decision to sacrifice some and preserve others is the best option they can have now.
