Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 908 - 906: Everyone Defects

"Xiang Tian and the others all rushed to Skyfire Mountain and Profound Ice Pavilion?"Hearing this, Wang Zhan was stunned for a moment.

Before leaving, he had repeatedly warned Xiang Tian and the others to ensure the safety of the Sky Pavilion at all costs, but he never expected that they would actually go to those two places behind his back...

Truly infuriating.

At the side, a disciple of Luoxing Mountain spoke respectfully, "It’s absolutely true. This matter has already spread, and most people from various factions have all rushed over to watch the battle. Judging from the timing, I’d believe they should’ve already taken back Skyfire Mountain and Profound Ice Pavilion by now, right?"

"But as for the exact situation, we’re not clear. After all, we’ve been in Luoxing Mountain this whole time. So if you want the precise news, you may have to go to those two places and see for yourself."

Wang Zhan nodded.

Since that was the case, he naturally couldn’t hesitate in the slightest.

Although he had already dealt with Qiu Yinshan and Huo Yuan, he still didn’t know whether there were other people in Skyfire Mountain. If there really were hidden experts there, that would be extremely disadvantageous for Xiang Tian and the others. A slight misstep could even cost the two of them their lives...

At that thought, Wang Zhan couldn’t help feeling a bit worried.

He turned back and glanced at Dong Tianlei behind him, then spoke calmly, "In that case, I won’t continue wasting time. I must hurry and rendezvous with them. As for the matters in Luoxing Mountain, I’ll leave them for you to handle yourself. If you’ve truly thought everything through, you can lead the people of Luoxing Mountain toward the Sky Pavilion. On the way, I’ll have someone return Inside Tian Pavilion to deliver a message. I believe they definitely won’t make things difficult for you."

Dong Tianlei gave Wang Zhan a grateful look, then nodded.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan’s figure had already vanished before everyone’s eyes.

Watching Wang Zhan leave, Dong Tianlei’s face was full of shock.

He shook his head and muttered to himself, "In just a short time, his strength is improving at a terrifying speed. That alone shows how frightening he is..."

The few people standing to the side exchanged a curious glance with Dong Tianlei, then started chattering all at once.

"Are we really going to merge with the Sky Pavilion?"

"Weren’t we enemies with them before? We’ve always treated each other as mortal troubles, we even nearly came to blows. How come we’re suddenly going to merge with them now? For us, that doesn’t seem like a good thing, right?"

"I don’t know if those Elders will agree to it?"

Hearing this, Dong Tianlei’s face was the first to turn much uglier. He rushed straight at the one who spoke, and in an instant he raised his hand and snapped the man’s neck.

Seeing this scene, everyone was so frightened that they all stepped back.

Clearly, no one knew what Dong Tianlei was doing.

Dong Tianlei’s gaze swept over everyone present. After he looked around at them, he finally spoke slowly, "I’ve already drawn a clear line with those Elders, and with Wang Zhan’s help just now, we even killed the Great Elder. As for the other Elders, none of them are a match for the two of us. But now that we’ve completely fallen out with those Elders, we naturally won’t continue staying in Luoxing Mountain."

"Of course, that’s only my personal intentions."

"I know that among you here, most of you follow the orders of those Elders, but I don’t want to drag each and every one of you out anymore. After all, that means nothing to me."

"I’m only giving you two paths now. Those who want to continue staying in Luoxing Mountain can stay. As for who becomes the master of Luoxing Mountain, that’s up to you to decide. But if you’re prepared to leave with me, then come stand by my side right now."

"Just know this: I now belong to Wang Zhan. This time, although we’re heading Inside Tian Pavilion, it’s not to merge with the Sky Pavilion, but to completely become one of their subordinate factions. Those who follow me must also integrate into the greater environment of the Sky Pavilion."

"So, think it over carefully yourselves."

After this speech, everyone’s eyes widened.

No one had expected things to reach this point.

Time passed, second by second.

Dong Tianlei then spoke slowly, "You still haven’t made up your minds? Or are you all planning to stay here? To tell you the truth, there’s still one Supreme Elder here whose strength far surpasses mine. Even if Wang Zhan and I joined forces, we still wouldn’t be a match for that Supreme Elder. But Wang Zhan has his own trump card and need not fear him."

"So you can still remain in Luoxing Mountain. I believe it won’t be long before that Supreme Elder directly comes out of seclusion, and when that time comes, you will have to follow his orders."

Everyone looked at each other, still saying nothing.

After all, it was truly hard to choose right now.

Previously, they stayed in Luoxing Mountain just so they could follow by Dong Tianlei’s side.

But if Luoxing Mountain changed masters now, naturally they were a bit worried.

If that Supreme Elder was easy to talk to, then fine, but if he didn’t understand favor at all, then things would become many times more troublesome...

Their situation would also become extremely difficult.

"Since you’re all planning to stay here, I won’t force you any further. We’ll meet again if fate allows."

As he spoke, Dong Tianlei had already turned around.

In truth, he had once wanted to live that carefree, wandering life as well.

So now, even if he entered Inside Tian Pavilion, it might not actually be a bad thing for him.

After all, during this period of time, his friction with that bunch of Elders had been nonstop, and now it had even reached the point of a life‑and‑death struggle.

On top of that, he had already taken care of the Great Elder; One should know, the Supreme Elder would definitely not let this go easily, so right now he had only one option: to rendezvous with Wang Zhan as quickly as possible, and then join Wang Zhan’s subordinates.

Naturally, there was no need to worry about anything else.

In the blink of an eye, Dong Tianlei turned around, ready to leave.

The disciple closest to Dong Tianlei quickly stood up; after respectfully glancing at Dong Tianlei, he spoke up, "I’m willing to stay by your side and go to Inside Tian Pavilion with you. I believe you definitely won’t just stand by and watch us die for nothing."

Dong Tianlei smiled in satisfaction. After patting the man on the shoulder, he finally said, "Don’t worry. I’m now fighting shoulder to shoulder with Wang Zhan as teammates, and we’ve just gone through a life‑and‑death battle together. So the two of us are practically like one person. Once we enter Inside Tian Pavilion, he will definitely treat us with courtesy."

Hearing this, that Luoxing Mountain disciple nodded heavily.

Clearly, he trusted Dong Tianlei’s words unconditionally.

Once one person spoke up, the others all stood up one after another, voicing their stance as well.

Obviously, they all wanted to follow beside Dong Tianlei.

After all, if Dong Tianlei left Luoxing Mountain, One should know, Luoxing Mountain would no longer be what it was now.

If they stayed here, they would only be wasting their time.

Dong Tianlei looked at them in satisfaction.

If he alone went to Inside Tian Pavilion, he would even feel that he had lost all face.

One should know, he was the master of Luoxing Mountain; suddenly defecting to Sky Pavilion without bringing a single person out.

To him, that would also be a great humiliation.

Thankfully, these people still had some conscience.

All of them wanted to follow at his side.

That could indeed help him solve quite a few problems.

After Dong Tianlei exchanged a few simple words with the crowd, he sped off in the direction of Sky Pavilion.

At the same time.

Skyfire Mountain.

On the way, Wang Zhan had already received news: it turned out Xiang Tian and the others had split into two groups. Xuan Yu had led part of the people toward Profound Ice Pavilion, while Xiang Tian and Luo Xue had each led people toward Skyfire Mountain.

Clearly, it could be seen that they were all going for the sake of their own personal grudges.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan had already arrived within Skyfire Mountain.

At this moment, the battle inside Skyfire Mountain was already nearing its end.

Xiang Tian stood with his arms crossed, looking at the kneeling disciples of Skyfire Mountain, then grinned and said, "Didn’t expect the people of Skyfire Mountain to be this weak. Looks like without Huo Yuan, everyone here is nothing but a pile of loose sand, and those so‑called officials are nothing special either."

Luo Xue walked up to him and spoke faintly, "I’d advise you not to act so arrogant here."

"If Brother Wang hadn’t taken down Huo Yuan in one stroke, do you really think, with your strength, you could have fought your way here?"

Xiang Tian shook his head. "You can’t put it like that."

"If Brother Wang hadn’t made a move, why would I even bother provoking them? After all, these guys aren’t some nobodies, and with how strong Huo Yuan was, if I’d faced him head‑on, I wouldn’t even be that guy’s match."

"But you need to understand one thing: any power you can mobilize is your own power. Now that Huo Yuan isn’t in Skyfire Mountain, that’s their own problem; it has nothing to do with me."

"So in the end, they’ve only themselves to blame."

Luo Xue, off to the side, shook her head and didn’t continue speaking.

This was clearly specious reasoning.

All of a sudden, a burst of strong winds swept through the Great Hall.

Right after, they saw a figure drop down from the sky.

But that figure was shrouded in a dark‑red level barrier, so they simply couldn’t see who it was.

Only, after feeling that oppressive aura, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue’s faces instantly turned much uglier.

"Who?"
