Stronger by Killing

Chapter 437: Chapter 290: Martial World Public Enemy and the Full Deathman Plan (15,000-Word Mega Chapter) (4)

...

Recently, the Yunxi Martial World has been in turmoil.

After Gu Zhan stirred up a bloody storm by charging through Lu Yuan Dao, he faced condemnation and sanctions from the entire Yunxi Martial World. And just at this moment, the Demon Dao from the Ten Thousand Mountains joined the fray, wiping out multiple factions in a short time.

Not long after,

forces from all over Yunxi gathered in Sword King City,

where the Land Immortal, Elder Celestial Master, reappeared in the Martial World.

Various forces formed the Martial Arts Alliance with Sword King City at the helm, led by the Elder Celestial Master as the Alliance Leader. The Old Valley Master from Medicine King Valley, Jin Zhengfeng, also returned to the Martial World, joining Sword King City Sect Leader Wei Wuya as the two Vice Alliance Leaders, while Golden Crow Sword Sect Sect Leader Li Tianhai, Medicine King Valley Valley Master Jin Guanyun, Qianyu Sect Sect Leader Lian Nanfeng, and Sword King City Second Elder Wu Yuanhua served as the four Protectors.

The first task of the Martial Arts Alliance was to announce a crusade against Gu Zhan of the Beidou Bang, declaring to the world that Gu Zhan colluded with the Demon Dao, slaughtered the Righteous Martial Dao, and incited Martial World chaos, among other crimes. Instantly, heroes responded, and the Yunxi Martial World was in uproar.

To everyone’s surprise,

in face of the pressure from the Martial Arts Alliance, Gu Zhan surprisingly did not react in any way, continuing his conquest in Lu Yuan Dao, and even recalled Beidou Bang’s Left Protector Xiao Chen back to Canglan Dao.

However, Xiao Chen’s actions upon returning to Canglan Dao caused an uproar.

Due to the crusade by the Martial Arts Alliance, Gu Zhan and the Beidou Bang became targets of all, leading to disturbances within Canglan Dao, and unease within Beidou Bang. Instead of calming the situation, Xiao Chen led his men to kill upon returning, causing heads to roll within Beidou Bang.

As for Lu Yuan Dao, it was even more of a bloodbath,

Gu Zhan seemed unconcerned by the Martial Arts Alliance, focusing solely on uniting Lu Yuan Dao, personally leading raids across Lu Yuan Dao, leaving the people in fear.

On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head.

In the early morning, a thunderclap illuminated the hazy dawn.

In a manor in Yu City, Lu Yuan Dao.

Nangong Weiyang was meeting Gu Zhan.

"Lord, the Martial Arts Alliance has gathered nearly sixty thousand men heading towards Yu City, and they’ve crossed the border of Lu Yuan Dao,"

"Sixty thousand!"

Gu Zhan mused, indeed this world is vast, even minor Martial World struggles involve thousands.

"Has the Elder Celestial Master of Sword King City descended?" Gu Zhan inquired.

Nangong Weiyang shook his head and replied, "The Elder Celestial Master will not descend. However, Wei Wuya is absent as well; leading them are Medicine King Valley’s Old Valley Master Jin Zhengfeng, Medicine King Valley Valley Master Jin Guanyun, Golden Crow Sword Sect Sect Leader Li Tianhai, Qianyu Sect Lian Nanfeng, and Sword King City’s two Supreme Elders!"

Gu Zhan raised his brows, "Supreme Elders, those geezers are over a hundred years old, right?"

Nangong Weiyang nodded, "Former Grand Elder Xiang Donglai is already over one hundred and ten years old."

Gu Zhan sneered, "At such an age, they still want to join the commotion. It seems they’re really tired of living."

Nangong Weiyang looked serious, "Lord, the Martial Arts Alliance is coming with aggression this time. Sword King City’s Eight Celestial Swords, Medicine King Valley’s Wendao’s Three Sons, Golden Crow Sword Sect’s Four Friends, Qianyu Sect’s Three United Heroes, Meng Family’s Meng Manor, Yuan Family’s Yuan Qiu, not less than thirty Grandmasters. As for Grandmasters, there are even more, the momentum is greater than the last Righteous-Demon war!"

"Looks like I’ve become the public enemy of the Martial World!" Gu Zhan chuckled, "But that’s just as well, fewer than that wouldn’t be enough for me to kill!"

Nangong Weiyang took a deep breath and cupped his hands, "Since the Lord has made up his mind, then I will prepare for battle with all my might. This battle, it isn’t necessarily doomed."

Gu Zhan smiled slightly, asking, "What’s your plan?"

Nangong Weiyang said, "Martial World fights, though they seem grandiose, numbers really don’t matter much. Compared to armies, um..."

Nangong Weiyang hesitated, "Though it’s hard to say, in front of armies, Martial World people are just a rabble, and often the key to victory in battles is the winning and morale of top forces.

For our Beidou Bang, in terms of top forces, we definitely can’t compare to the Martial Arts Alliance. However, they are assembled from various sects, more mixed than ordinary martial sects, they simply cannot develop any cohesion.

So, we only need to exploit this weakness. We just need to set up an ambush in Yu City in advance. When they enter the city, their morale will be hit hard again and again, and each sect has its own agenda, none willing to endure more loss for their own side. By dispersing them, though the battle seems huge, it’s still worth engaging in,

Additionally, these days, I’ve tried my best to replicate Canglan City’s water formation in Yu City, although it’s not comparable to Canglan City, relying on your Rain Summoning Technique, Lord, each faction will be cautious. This battle, most likely, will end inconclusively, with the Martial Arts Alliance unable to drag on for long, if it does, there’s a chance the Demon Dao will attack their sects from behind."

Nangong Weiyang sighed after speaking, "Lord, while I consider myself decent at leading troops, analyzing and strategizing is beyond my capability. I can only think this far; if there’s any flaw, please forgive me!"

Gu Zhan smiled lightly, saying, "Just follow your plan, and leave the rest to me. You’re absolutely right on one point, this kind of alliance is a mere rabble.

Their vast power, using the alliance approach, is no more than a tenth effective. As long as I kill quickly enough, they won’t even be able to unite!"
