Chapter 165 Snatching a Sect!

Mo Ran, however, glared at Hu Xiao without flinching.

"You're clearly taking advantage of our misfortune! Our sect is already facing such difficulties, yet you're making such an unreasonable demand!"

She held Luan Han'an's arm tightly, her gaze firm and resolute.

"Junior sister!" Luan Han'an tugged at Mo Ran's hand, signaling her to stop talking.

Then he looked up at Hu Xiao, his face flushed.

"Okay, I promise."

After all, she is now a member of Tiger Roar's faction.

Moreover, now that the demon race has returned, the human and demon races are no longer as irreconcilable as before.

To fight against the demons, it is absolutely impossible to rely on either the human race or the demons alone, so cooperation between humans and demons is only a matter of time.

Besides, there are many human women around Hu Xiao, and Hu Xiao is a decent person, so following him wouldn't be an insult to oneself.

Hu Xiao nodded in satisfaction when he saw that Luan Han'an had agreed to his request. This was the main reason he had come out.

He then followed up with, "So what are the humans planning to do?"

Luan Han'an shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either, and said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, we did go to a meeting before. But that meeting was really disheartening."

Hu Xiao frowned, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Luan Han'an took a deep breath and slowly said, "When Yu Huai asked us to attend the meeting, he only told us that we small sects should move away from the central area as soon as possible."

"They didn't offer any substantial countermeasures, nor did they provide us with any support or guarantees."

"He only cares about protecting the interests of those major sects and doesn't care at all about the lives of us small sects."

Hu Xiao was taken aback. "Didn't you go to a meeting earlier? Didn't they take any precautions?"

Hu Xiao was shocked. Even if Yu Huai was selfish, he should have considered the bigger picture at this time.

Upon hearing this, Luan Han'an's face showed a bitter expression. "My lord, you don't know, when we were about to move away, the demons had already launched an attack on our side."

"We were completely unprepared and had no choice but to hastily respond to the attack."

"The demons came with overwhelming force, like an endless dark tide. Although our sect's disciples fought hard, they were still forced to retreat one after another."

"We have held out for several days. If you had arrived any later, our sect might have already been breached by the demons, just like the other sects."

Hu Xiao's face darkened even more upon hearing this; he had never imagined that the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was such a sect.

At this critical moment of life and death, they only thought of themselves and didn't even send anyone to help.

Before Hu Xiao could even speak, Luan Han'an quickly looked at him and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, what should we do now? Should we stay here?"

"But if we stay here, the demons will attack sooner or later."

Hu Xiao frowned and pondered for a long time.

If it's just Luan Han'an and Mo Ran, we can just take them back.

But there's still someone from another sect.

Judging from Luan Han'an and Mo Ran's behavior, they definitely won't abandon these people.

Moreover, the resettlement of so many people is a major problem.

Luan Han'an looked at Hu Xiao with unwavering eyes and said, "My lord, the people of our sect are bound by life and death. Mo Ran and I will not abandon them. As long as you are willing to take them in, we will do our best not to cause you any trouble."

Tiger Roar continued, "Take them all with us? It seems to be the only option right now. But the journey won't be peaceful; the demons might even launch an attack."

Luan Han'an was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised that Hu Xiao would make such a decision. "My lord, are you really willing to bring our entire sect with you?"

Hu Xiao nodded. "At this point, this is the only way. I can't just stand by and watch you fall into a desperate situation."

Hu Xiao then shared his thoughts with Luan Han'an.

Tiger Roar said seriously, "We'll go back to my Tiger King City, where it's relatively safer, but it may take some time to settle everyone in."

"We need to proceed in shifts, trying to avoid the demons' attention. I will arrange for some skilled escorts to ensure everyone's safety."

Mo Ran listened quietly from the side.

She couldn't help but ask, "Senior sister, is this really going to work? What if something goes wrong along the way..."

Luan Han'an gently grasped Mo Ran's hand. "Junior Sister, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect definitely won't care about us. If we continue to leave everyone here, we can only wait to die. For now, we can only trust the Master."

Mo Ran bit her lip and finally had no choice but to acquiesce to Hu Xiao's idea.

Luan Han'an told the entire sect about this, and the sect members were initially hesitant and worried.

"Will this work? Is it really safe to go to Tiger King City?"

"Yes, and we also have dealings with the demon race..."

But some people said, "But staying here means certain death. Those major sects don't care about us at all."

Ultimately, everyone realized that the major sects didn't care whether they lived or died; their primary concern now was survival.

Soon, everyone in the sect returned to Tiger King City with Hu Xiao.

As soon as they entered the city, a disciple from a sect couldn't help but exclaim, "The environment of Tiger King City is just too wonderful!"

"Yes, the spiritual energy inside is very rich, making it very suitable for cultivation."

"It seems that coming here with Hu Xiao was the right decision."

Tiger Roar summoned Bear and asked him to settle these people down.

Xiong Da respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will certainly handle it well."

Hu Xiao cautioned, "These are all our people, but the great war between humans and demons has just ended, and there is still hostility between them. We must separate them."

"Make sure to arrange things carefully to avoid any conflicts among everyone."

Xiong Da nodded and replied, "Understood, Your Majesty, I will make the arrangements. I will find some quiet areas and assign them places to live."

Hu Xiao then took Luan Han'an on a tour of Tiger King City, introducing her to various places.

The buildings in Tiger King City are magnificent, and the streets are wide and clean.

In the distance, there is a towering tower overlooking the entire city.

The streets are lined with shops and bustling with activity.

Luan Han'an couldn't help but exclaim, "I never expected there to be such a prosperous city here."

Hu Xiao smiled and said, "This will be your home from now on. You'll get used to it gradually."

However, she never expected that Hu Xiao would treat his wife so well, better than any human man could ever be.

That night, Hu Xiao shared a room with Luan Han'an, as his immediate priority was to improve his strength.

And so he stayed there for three days without leaving the house.

Mo Ran was both ashamed and angry after learning about this. She stomped her feet and said, "Senior sister is really something, just following him like that..."

A female disciple standing nearby said, "Senior Sister Mo Ran, perhaps there's nothing we can do about it. It's for the sake of the sect, for survival."

Mo Ran said angrily, "That's still not allowed... Humph!"

But despite her anger, there was nothing she could do.

Meanwhile, outside, a demon envoy with a weakened aura was rapidly approaching Tiger King City.
