After Nangong Cheng informed the various aristocratic families of Lu Mingyuan's thoughts, as expected, the aristocratic families were very excited, and all of them abandoned their previous grudges and eagerly took flying boats from various cities to Ziwu City.
At the city lord's mansion in Purple Mist City, Chu Heng, the elder of the outer sect who is also in charge of Purple Mist City, met with the principals of each family.
In a small living room in the city lord's palace, the principals of more than a dozen aristocratic families were sitting on both sides, with Chu Heng sitting alone at the head.
A group of old guys exchanged pleasantries with Chu Heng, and Nangong Cheng immediately explained his intention on behalf of each family, and then raised his hand to Chu Heng:
"Elder Chu! To be honest, each of our families still has many innate masters in Da Qin. Now that there is a war outside the sea, we are very happy to actively respond to the edict of the Villa and send more masters to participate in the war, so we specially want to go back to Da Qin.
Gather all the innate masters from each family."
Hearing this, Chu Heng's lean old face frowned slightly.
To travel to and from the Qin Dynasty from Ziwu Villa, you need to take a teleportation array and drive a battleship across the Demonic Sea.
The teleportation array cannot be known to outsiders. If the people of the aristocratic family want to return to Da Qin, they can only send them back in a battleship, but this is too time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Moreover, if people from aristocratic families want to recruit people from Da Qin, they don’t have to go to such trouble...
After glancing at the people of the aristocratic family, Chu Heng slowly shook his head:
"Everyone, the Villa supports us in recruiting more masters from Great Qin to join the war, but there is no need to trouble you to go there in person. You just need to write a handwritten letter and the Villa will take it back for you!"
Hearing this, the heads of a group of aristocratic families looked at each other.
Lu Mingyuan remained calm, stood up, cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"Elder Chu doesn't know something. We go back to gather the masters. In addition, I haven't been back since I came to Zhenyuan Continent. I also want to go back and have a look. After all, Da Qin is our root. Please understand, Elder Chu."
!”
After saying that, Lu Mingyuan glanced at the other heads of the aristocratic families.
Others understood and immediately spoke out:
"Yes! They say they return home in fine clothes. Although I am not talented, I have saved some small things. I want to take them back with me to train the younger generations!"
"Yes, please allow Elder Chu to agree to send us back. We will pay for the expenses on the way. We will not delay after we return. After gathering the masters from each family, we will immediately take the battleship of the villa and rush back!"
Echoes echoed in the living room, and a group of heads of the aristocratic families looked at Chu Heng expectantly.
Facing the many expectant glances, Chu Heng's brows furrowed even more tightly.
The interests of Ziwu Villa are above all else. He will not easily agree to the aristocratic family just because of this matter. Moreover, a group of aristocratic families have become so united for one thing. It is also inconsistent with the division of various aristocratic families in Ziwu Villa.
decision.
After pondering in his heart for a moment, Chu Heng's eyes gradually became firm as he looked at a group of aristocratic families.
But just when Chu Heng was about to refuse again, a black-clad disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall suddenly walked in outside the hall.
The disciple quickly walked into the living room. Under the gaze of everyone, he walked straight to Chu Heng without looking away. After saying a few words in Chu Heng's ear, he quickly walked out of the living room.
When Chu Heng heard the words of the black-clothed disciple, a trace of doubt rose in his eyes.
However, this doubt was quickly covered up by Chu Heng, and his face instantly pretended to be serious and eager. He stood up and said quickly:
"Everyone, since you all want to go back to Da Qin so much, I, on behalf of the Villa, have agreed. Once the warship comes back from Da Qin, I will send you there. You can take advantage of this time to send warriors from your clan to gather for the battle.
, this matter cannot be delayed!”
"Okay, this elder still has something important to do, so let's take the first step!"
After saying that, Chu Heng hurriedly walked out of the living room.
Upon seeing this, a group of aristocratic family members hurriedly stood up and bowed their hands towards Chu Heng’s back:
"Thank you very much, Elder Chu. I will send warriors to gather here right away!"
Putting down their hands, excitement appeared on the faces of the family members, and Lu Mingyuan's hands, which were blocked by his wide sleeves, clenched his fists in excitement.
As for the sudden arrival of the Law Enforcement Hall disciples on the way, a group of aristocratic family members didn't pay much attention. They just thought they came to inform Chu Heng of something urgent. After all, Chu Heng looked really anxious to leave.
However, after the excitement, the heads of a group of aristocratic families looked at each other, and their faces gradually darkened.
"snort!"
Several cold snorts sounded at the same time, and several heads of the aristocratic families glared at the other people, and then strode out of the living room.
Today's aristocratic families are different from the past. Just now, everyone was able to stand together for the Moyuan matter, but as soon as this matter happened, the previous grudges came to mind, and they naturally disliked each other.
The other people were not easy to mess with either. They all blushed and had thick necks. They also glared back fiercely, threw up their sleeves and left.
Suddenly, all the aristocratic families who were on the same front just now scattered with dark faces.
...
Off the coast, Island Fortress No. 88.
Ever since Luo Chen killed the Flying Flame Tiger with one blow that day, Fortress No. 88 fell into a brief silence.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the monster launched another attack.
And this time, just as Luo Chen and others expected, the monster launched a retaliatory attack.
The number of beasts in the entire attack surged to hundreds of thousands, and there were even three sixth-level demon kings coming to kill them.
These three demon kings are a late-sixth-level sea snake, a mid-sixth-level golden crocodile, and an early-sixth-level vulture.
Facing such a powerful attack, Fortress No. 88 was facing a formidable enemy.
Luo Chen was so angry that he left Qi Wei. He had no choice but to fight against the late-sixth-level sea snake by himself, leaving the remaining golden giant crocodile and vulture to the Fang Jin people.
Fortunately, Li Futang was also on the scene while commanding the battle. He, Fang Jin and Lin Yichen joined forces to fend off the golden crocodile and the vulture.
And Luo Chen had broken through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, and with the spiritual weapon Thunder Knife in his hand, he was on par with the sea snakes in the late sixth stage.
Even if Luo Chen exploded with force, he would be sure to kill the sea snake, but Luo Chen did not do so.
First, Luo Chen has just broken through to the middle stage of Jindan, and his realm is not yet stable. A powerful explosion can easily damage his foundation.
Secondly, it was also because Luo Chen had just broken through and wanted to use the sea snake as a whetstone, using it to hone himself and speed up his stabilization.
The third reason is to consider the future war. Luo Chen is afraid that killing this late-level sixth-order sea snake will attract more powerful monsters later. For safety reasons, Luo Chen does not plan to kill it for the time being.
As a result, there was a roar in the air, which seemed fierce, but was actually inextricable.
And below.
Although today's beast tide is twice as large as last time, there is still one card that has not been played before the fortress, and that is each family's warship.
Today, everyone stopped hiding their clumsiness and directly launched all the warships.
In addition, many warriors have come to the fortress for reinforcements in the past few days.
After the beast tide rushed under the fortress, more than a dozen warships and countless warriors rushed out, using the fortress' formation to resist frantically.
In just an instant, the fortress was covered in a sea of blood.
It was precisely because of this unreserved and crazy resistance that the fortress could barely hold off the beast tide, and suddenly fell into a stalemate.
And this kind of fighting didn't end until nightfall.
In the next two days, there was still such a high-intensity beast attack.
But on the third day, the situation changed.
For some unknown reason, the beast tide suddenly weakened, and finally returned to the previous attack scale. It even took several days to launch an attack, and the sixth-order demon king did not appear again.
Luo Chen and others did not dare to neglect the sudden change and were on alert.
And amid this vigilance, the annual overseas auction has also arrived.
Although there is a war going on outside the sea, the Warrior Alliance is still doing well and the auction will be held as usual.
Seeing that there was no movement from the monster side, Luo Chen left the matters at Ziwu Villa to Fang Jin, and then took the teleportation array to Alliance City to attend the auction.
In order to facilitate the control and support of various island fortresses, each fortress island in the island chain defense line has a teleportation array leading to the alliance mainland, and fortress island No. 88 is no exception.
However, Fortress Island No. 88 is a bit remote, and the teleportation array cannot reach Alliance City directly, so it needs to be transferred to other islands.
After Luo Chen entered the Teleportation Hall of the Island Lord's Mansion, he teleported towards the transfer island...
