Chapter 918 - 916: The Eve of the Final Battle
Wang Zhan looked at her posture, then helplessly shook his head.However, unless absolutely necessary, he would naturally refuse to be anyone’s master.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had already handled all the matters here and quickly headed in the direction of the Sky Pavilion.
...
Three hours later.
In the Great Hall of the Sky Pavilion.
At this moment, everyone was gathered together.
Wang Zhan was sitting at the head, and after glancing at the people sitting beside him, he slowly spoke: "Has the news from the Wolf Gang arrived?"
It must be said that they had already made a move on the Wolf Gang, but the members of the Wolf Gang did not provide any information.
This was surprising to Wang Zhan because he was well aware of the methods of the Wolf Gang members. That gang would never suffer a loss, and now that their people were being suppressed by Wang Zhan, how could they possibly let it go easily?
Upon hearing this, Dong Tianlei was the first to stand up. After glancing at Wang Zhan, he frowned and said, "I was just about to tell you. I’ve just received some information that it seems the Wolf Gang members are already heading towards the Sky Pavilion. According to their speed, they should arrive in about an hour..."
"If we don’t come up with a countermeasure now, it won’t benefit us much, so our top priority is to think about how to deal with this group from the Wolf Gang."
"After all, as far as I know, while the members of the Wolf Gang are not worth worrying about, their leader is extremely formidable. Comparing him to Wang Zhan, the difference shouldn’t be too much and might even surpass Wang Zhan..."
Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback.
After all, in their eyes, Wang Zhan was a myth-like expert, and the speed of his cultivation improvement was much faster than they had imagined.
So how could they possibly believe that Wang Zhan was not a match for the Wolf Gang leader?
Moreover, Wang Zhan has already become the top expert inside Tian Pavilion. If even he cannot handle the Wolf Gang leader, wouldn’t that mean once the Wolf Gang leader enters Tian Pavilion, it’s akin to entering an uninhabited realm?
Thinking of these things, how could everyone not be worried?
Xiang Tian slapped the table, then stood up first, glanced at Dong Tianlei, and said angrily, "I wonder why you always bolster others’ morale while undermining our own. We are all teammates standing shoulder to shoulder, but you are here talking about how formidable the Wolf Gang is. Are you worried our troops are already too disheartened?"
"You walk to the city and hear what everyone is saying. Now, everyone is worried about the Wolf Gang and discussing their strength. We have done our best to control the public’s discussions, but unexpectedly, you are sitting here saying the same thing as them?"
Seeing Xiang Tian’s agitation, Xuan Yu and Luo Xue quickly walked over and pulled him aside.
Luo Xue lowered her voice, glanced at Xiang Tian, and then frowned, saying, "Can you stop causing trouble now? Everyone is thinking about how to deal with the Wolf Gang, and no one has said they are worried about anything. Why are you standing up and opposing Dong Tianlei?"
"And I can feel that Dong Tianlei was only considering everyone’s interest, not what you think."
"Besides, Dong Tianlei’s strength far surpasses yours, so he naturally wouldn’t worry too much about the Wolf Gang, and if he wants to leave, the Wolf Gang members couldn’t even stop him."
After hearing these words, Xiang Tian sat down, saying nothing further.
In fact, it was apparent to everyone that there was some personal conflict between Xiang Tian and Dong Tianlei, which caused them to frequently square off.
No, rather than calling it a square off, it seemed more like Xiang Tian instigating trouble because Dong Tianlei always tolerated him.
And Dong Tianlei, standing by, remained silent throughout.
Wang Zhan, on the other side, glanced at the two and then spoke softly: "I know all of you are considering the Sky Pavilion, and you are all working together to make the Sky Pavilion better, but at this moment, let’s not cause further conflict."
"I think you all understand what I’m trying to convey, right?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Wang Zhan then smiled satisfied and set his gaze on Dong Tianlei, asking, "According to your intentions, what should we do next?"
"Um..."
Dong Tianlei pondered for a moment, clearly not wanting to continue bickering with Xiang Tian. He glanced at Wang Zhan and then spoke: "The most urgent task is to set up several defensive lines near the Sky Pavilion, and then when the Wolf Gang members arrive, we will surround them and launch a multi-faceted attack, ideally leaving all of them inside the Sky Pavilion..."
Xuan Yu then stood up, nodded, and said, "I think Dong Tianlei’s words make sense. After all, the Wolf Gang members are extremely ruthless, and their methods are extremely vicious. If we can’t annihilate them in one fell swoop, they will soon return, posing a great threat to us..."
"We also need to continue developing. After all, the Sky Pavilion is not yet the most powerful faction in this region, and even if we achieve that, there are still many powerful forces on the Star War Battlefield. Naturally, we cannot stagnate, nor can we waste time dealing with the Wolf Gang members."
Everyone nodded in agreement, clearly supporting Xuan Yu’s view.
Wang Zhan’s lips curled into a faint smile as well. Looking at Dong Tianlei, he said, "In that case, let’s discuss how we plan to deploy our people."
"I must remain inside the Sky Pavilion as a precaution. After all, no one knows what tricks the Wolf Gang might pull, and for whatever reason, the Sky Pavilion cannot have any problems."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded along.
Wang Zhan then spoke again: "For this ambush operation, choose Dong Tianlei, Xuan Yu, and Luo Xue. You three should lead the main force and set the ambush near the Sky Pavilion, but do not act rashly. If you see me engaging with them, then it’s not too late to take action."
"At that time, we will join forces and attack, annihilating all the Wolf Gang members."
Everyone nodded in agreement, evidently supportive of Wang Zhan’s intentions.
However, Xiang Tian quickly stood up, looked at Wang Zhan, and asked, "Brother Wang, you’ve assigned everyone else; what about me? You don’t plan on leaving me in this city, do you?"
Wang Zhan spoke softly, "Is there a problem?"
"This..."
Xiang Tian awkwardly scratched his head, quickly walked to Wang Zhan’s side, and said in a low voice, "Brother Wang, I know you’re a bit angry, but rest assured, I’ll never anger Dong Tianlei again or continue to oppose him. I won’t argue with him anymore, and I’ll listen to you, but you can’t leave me here, can you?"
"You know my temperament. If you leave me here, isn’t it akin to waiting for death? So, Brother Wang, give me a chance to properly engage with those Wolf Gang members, alright?"
Wang Zhan shook his head and spoke softly, "I think you haven’t grasped the situation. Not only do you have to stay in the city, but even I need to stay here, so it’s not that you’ll be idle. I’ll also remain here."
"Besides, who says staying here means there’s no opportunity to showcase your skills?"
Wang Zhan continued, "The Sky Pavilion is our top priority and must not have any issues. Those who remain inside the Sky Pavilion are top-notch elites. I’m leaving you here because I value you, so stop bargaining with me about this."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Tian looked dejected. He would rather not be valued by Wang Zhan...
After all, if Dong Tianlei and others truly engage outside, they might not even need intervention from within the Sky Pavilion, and they could only stand by and watch.
Thinking about this, Xiang Tian sighed helplessly, but since Wang Zhan had made a decision, he wouldn’t dare oppose him...
In an instant, Wang Zhan had already walked to the others and waved his hand, saying, "Since everything is arranged, go ahead and implement your plans. Remember, without my command, do not act on your own, or don’t blame me for not being polite."
It’s not a solo battle now, so personal heroism is strictly prohibited.
Indeed, this is the main reason Wang Zhan wouldn’t let Xiang Tian go out.
Looking across the entire Sky Pavilion, perhaps only Wang Zhan and Luo Xue can restrain Xiang Tian, and even Luo Xue might not be able to restrain Xiang Tian with words.
If there’s a variable in this matter, it would be Xiang Tian.
Thus, it was natural for Wang Zhan to keep Xiang Tian by his side.
"Dong Tianlei, stay behind."
