Chapter 52: Deadlocked
The Jing tribe, the atmosphere of the huge main hall is a little heavy.
Many high-level officials of the Jing clan gathered here, and the patriarch Jing Xiangyang sat upright, his brows tightened, and he looked down with a sad face, and everyone present was silent at this time, this silence had lasted for a while, and no one broke this silence.
Because when Long Chen and Sedum fought before, the two clans agreed that if Sedum was defeated by Long Chen, then the Jing clan would have to agree to a condition for the Long clan, and at that time, Long Chen proposed that when the Long clan suffered a catastrophe, the Jing clan needed assistance once.
At that time, in full view of everyone, under the pressure of the situation and various tribes at that time, the Jing clan had to agree, but what everyone didn't expect was that this "big disaster" of the Long clan came so quickly!
Because in the past two days, almost all the tribes in Luoxia Mountain have received a piece of news: Long Tianfang, the third elder of the Dragon Clan, has taken refuge in the Demon Mountain Clan, and then this traitor directly led the people of the Demon Mountain Clan to kill the Long Clan, and this news shocked everyone.
At the same time, almost all the tribes have focused their attention on the Jing clan, because all the tribes remember the agreement made between the two clans in the previous fight between Long Chen and Sedum, and everyone wants to see if the Jing clan will help the Long clan in this disaster as promised.
Because of the strength of the Demon Mountain Division, none of the surrounding tribes dared to openly confront the Demon Mountain Division, so at this time, of course, other tribes would not make a move, and who would want to provoke the Demon Mountain Division?
But the Jing clan is different, because the Jing clan has openly made an agreement with the tribes of Luoxia Mountain, promising to help the Long clan when the Dragon clan is suffering, so now all the tribes are beginning to be interested in the choice of the Jing tribe.
If the Jing tribe really acted according to the agreement, then the two clans would inevitably resist the Demon Mountain Department with hatred, but the two clans really had the strength to fight against the Demon Mountain Department? The answer is no.
How strong is the current Demon Mountain Tribe, if there are only two clans, the Jing clan and the Dragon clan, it is categorically difficult to resist the Demon Mountain Clan, and if the Jing clan makes a move, the Jing tribe will inevitably directly record hatred with the Demon Mountain Tribe.
Because originally this was just a grudge between the Dragon clan and the Demon Mountain tribe, once the Jing clan was involved, it would be very difficult to get out, and it would even directly bring ruin to the Jing clan.
Because now the Demon Mountain Department can be said to be overwhelming, and its strength is extremely strong, if it only relies on the Dragon Clan and the Jing Clan, even if it can resist for a while, it will be difficult to completely defeat the Demon Mountain Clan, which is an extremely obvious thing.
And the surrounding tribes are actually quite happy to see this kind of thing, because once the Dragon Clan and the Jing Clan are together, even if the Demon Mountain Clan can destroy the two clans, their strength will inevitably be weakened to a great extent, and in this way, the other tribes will also get some opportunities for development.
As the so-called snipe and clam compete with each other, and the fisherman profits, if it really becomes such a situation, whether the two tribes of the Long clan and the Jing clan win, or the Magic Mountain clan wins, it is a good thing for the surrounding tribes.
Because if the two major tribes are defeated, they can directly annex them and further strengthen themselves, and if the Demon Mountain tribe is defeated, then the many tribes can join forces again and then find an opportunity to suppress them
Magic Mountain Department.
Even if you can't eliminate the Demon Mountain Department at one time, you can also weaken the Demon Mountain Department to a great extent, so that the current situation of the Demon Mountain Department overwhelming the others will also be greatly changed.
Therefore, seeing this situation now, all the tribes are not ready to make a move, and are ready to watch directly from the wall, ready to further watch the development of the situation, and then wait for an opportunity to make a move.
In the eyes of the tribes, no matter how things develop, for them, everything is now none of their business, so everyone is in a state of mind, ready to see how the situation develops.
And now, the problem of whether to make a move has become a problem for the Jing clan, because when the agreement was made, the two clans were decided in front of almost all the tribes in Luoxia Mountain, so this matter can be said to be known to women and children in the entire Luoxia Mountain.
If the Jing clan does not make a move, it will inevitably be ridiculed by the tribes of Luoxia Mountain, and the prestige of the Jing clan will inevitably plummet, and even the Jing clan will directly become the target of public criticism in the future, after all, the Jing clan is also a tribe with a head and a face in Luoxia Mountain, and this face cannot be lost anyway.
However, the high-level members of the Jing clan even understood that if they made a move, it would be extremely dangerous for the Jing clan, because if they made a move, although they would envelop the Dragon clan, it would be equivalent to directly offending the entire Demon Mountain tribe to death.
Even if the two clans join forces, they will not necessarily be the opponents of the Demon Mountain Clan, and they may even directly give the Jing clan a direct calamity.
So now, all the high-ranking members of the Jing clan have fallen into silence, and no one can give a definite decision on the question of war or peace, because even the patriarch and I have a difficult choice, so everyone is silent.
After a long time, Jing Xiangyang, the patriarch of the Jing clan, finally broke the silence and asked, "How is the situation of the Long clan now?"
"The people of the Demon Mountain Department have surrounded the Long Clan, and this time the Demon Mountain Department has dispatched many masters, and the martial artists of the Destiny Star Realm are more than thirty people. The Long Clan is now in jeopardy. An elder replied, his eyes full of worry as he said this, of course, this worry was not for the Long Clan, but for the Jing Clan.
After the elder said this, there was a silence again, this news was not good news for the Jing clan, and this news made the elders of the Jing clan, who were already quiet, even more worried.
After the elder said all this, he looked at Jing Xiangyang once and said, "They have already sent someone to ask for help." ”
As the high-level of the Jing clan, of course everyone here knew the thank you news, but at this time, even the patriarch was a little undecided, let alone the people sitting here.
"What do you think?" Jing Xiangyang asked.
"Patriarch, I still stick to my previous opinion. Since we have given the Long Clan a promise, we naturally have to fulfill it. An elder said lightly, this person was the same elder who had taken Sedum to compete with Long Chen before.
Although he said this, there was still a clear worry in the elder's eyes, because the situation at this time was already extremely unfavorable, and of course he understood that for the Jing clan, it was most suitable not to send troops.
But he has always been an upright person, so he doesn't want to lose his trust to the Long clan, and he understands very well that if the Long clan dies, once the Long clan dies, it will not be a good thing for the Jing clan to start.
"Second Elder, although we have promised the Long Clan, you also know the strength of the Demon Mountain Clan, and it was very clear at the beginning, if it is beyond the scope of my Jing Clan, we can refuse to support. Another elder said.
"I agree with what the Fifth Elder said, this time the Demon Mountain Clan's revenge against the Dragon Clan is a dispute between the two sides, if my Jing Clan is involved, if I want to get out, it will not be a simple matter.
The style of the Demon Mountain Clan's actions, everyone here must be very clear, the last time that village and town was slaughtered by the Demon Mountain Tribe, just because he killed an insider of the Demon Mountain Clan, if my Jing Clan rashly made a move, not only might not save the Long Clan, but even put us in it!" another elder immediately echoed.
"I also think that what the Fifth Elder said is reasonable, this time the situation is not trivial, because this time the Demon Mountain Sect only dispatched the Destiny Star Realm martial artists with thirty people, even if we join forces with the Dragon Clan, we can barely gather such strength.
Even if we barely repelled the attack of the Demon Mountain Tribes this time, how could the Demon Mountain Tribes give up? If the Demon Mountain Tribes invaded again, how could we resist it, we had to think for the long run, we couldn't ruin the future of our Jing Clan just because we were fighting for a breath, and we must not send troops at this time!" the other elder also said with a strong voice.
"The four elders are a little short-sighted when they say this! This Dragon Clan is already adjacent to our territory, so it can be said that we and the Dragon Clan are both dependent on each other, if we don't send troops when the Dragon Clan suffers this time, the Long Clan will definitely not be able to resist it.
And have you ever thought that if the Dragon Clan is defeated, the power of the Demon Mountain Clan will be able to directly reach the west of the Green Collar in the future, so that the strength of the Demon Mountain Clan will spread directly from the Demon Capital Mountain to the door of our Jing Clan, and how can my Jing Clan be alone at that time?
Moreover, once the Demon Mountain Clan destroys the Dragon Clan, its strength will definitely increase greatly at that time, and I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time;
Although he may not be able to defeat the Demon Mountain Clan, he can also taste the power, so that the Demon Mountain Clan will not dare to offend my Jing clan in the future!" Hearing the elder just now's opinion, the other elder instantly responded angrily.
"Elder Nine said this, it is really a scholar's opinion! Although my Jing clan is stronger than them compared to the Dragon clan, this is only a comparison of the Dragon clan, and the gap between us and the Demon Mountain clan is huge!
This time, the strength of the Demon Mountain Clan just to deal with the Dragon Clan is far greater than the sum of the Star Realm martial artists between our two clans! How do you know how many martial artists the Demon Mountain Clan has in the Demon Capital Mountain, and with the current strength of the Jing Clan, how can they compete with them? Don't sacrifice the lives of my Jing clan disciples for a ridiculous bet, it's not worth it!" The other elder then roared loudly, he resolutely resisted the idea of sending troops.
"I also agree with what the Seventh Elder said, making a rash move in this situation is simply looking for death! Haven't you noticed that many tribes that are usually friendly with the Dragon Clan are all sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight at this time, and now who is willing to volunteer the Dragon Clan, sending troops in this climate is a stupid move!
If the Jing clan takes the lead, otherwise it will be regarded as the number one enemy by the Demon Mountain Department, and the Demon Mountain Department will definitely not spare us in the future, so it is unwise to make a move at this time!
Although all the tribes are now sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, everyone knows very well that if the Dragon Clan is directly destroyed by the Jing Clan, the Demon Mountain will continue to grow, so in the future, the tribes will also send troops to rescue each other; even if they make a move, we should wait until others make a move first, and then we will make a move! First, we must not offend the Demon Mountain Tribe, and second, we can be regarded as fulfilling our own promise!"
For a while, everyone began to make noise, in the huge hall, many elders had different opinions, everyone had their own opinions on whether to send troops, but they were all inconsistent, no one could convince everyone, and for a while, the whole venue fell into a stalemate.
