Chapter Index

    Yu Xian landed on the open space in front of Xue Luo Manor, his figure tall and straight. Although his aura fluctuated slightly, it remained as steady as a mountain.

    The Women immediately surrounded Yu Xian upon seeing him return, their concern for him clearly visible in their eyes.

    After responding to and comforting them one by one, Yu Xian looked toward the other people present.

    “Young friend, were you injured?” Zhang Sanfeng asked with concern as he met Yu Xian’s gaze.

    Yu Xian shook his head. “It was merely a jumping clown. It has already been resolved.”

    His tone was relaxed, as if he had merely crushed an ant, yet everyone present knew that anyone he called a formidable opponent was certainly no ordinary person. This only further highlighted the unfathomable depth of his strength.

    “That is good then.” Zhang Sanfeng nodded.

    The latter’s cultivation was somewhat higher than his own. It wasn’t that he couldn’t win, but the opponent’s cultivation was indeed superior. However, Yu Xian resolving the matter so lightly gave him a deeper understanding of Yu Xian’s power.

    “Young Master Yu’s divine skill is peerless; he must be the foremost person here.” Baili Dongjun felt that even his Master might not be Yu Xian’s match. The feeling Yu Xian gave him was even more unfathomable.

    His Master was once known as the best in the world, but now he felt that the best in the world should be Yu Xian.

    “City Lord Baili flatters me. Now that the matter of the allied forces has been resolved, will everyone stay for a few drinks, or will you be departing?” Yu Xian asked politely.

    Although Baili Dongjun and the others had not taken action, since they had come to offer support, they deserved to be treated with fine wine and food.

    “Young Master Yu, we have just discussed this with Real Person Zhang. We hope to join Young Master Yu’s team and go together to flatten Dongying.”

    Baili Dongjun replied as the representative.

    The others nodded in agreement.

    “Oh?” This was something Yu Xian had not expected.

    His gaze swept over Baili Dongjun and the others. These were all the backbone forces of the Martial Forest of North Li. Were they all willing to follow him to Dongying?

    “You must consider this carefully. Going to Dongying is not a matter of a day or two, and moreover…” Yu Xian’s gaze swept over them coldly, “Slaughter will not only exist in the Jianghu.”

    He was reminding them that what he intended to do was not just eliminating those who wanted to invade the Central Plains, but everyone!

    Baili Dongjun and the others felt Yu Xian’s gaze and couldn’t help but shudder. They all sensed Yu Xian’s intense killing intent.

    This resolute attitude made them realize that the journey to Dongying this time was absolutely not an ordinary Jianghu dispute, but a bloody war concerning survival.

    But the determination in everyone’s eyes did not waver.

    Baili Dongjun said in a deep voice, “Young Master Yu, since we have decided, we will not shrink back. The Dongying bandits have coveted the Central Plains for a long time. If they are not completely eradicated, they will surely become a major hidden danger in the future. All of Xue Luo Manor is willing to accompany the Young Master through this danger and march into Dongying!”

    “That’s right! Those Dongying barbarians dare to run wild in the Central Plains; we must let them know the might of our Central Plains Martial Forest!” Lei Yunhe followed with a loud laugh.

    “My sword is already impatient to drink the blood of the Dongying people!” Wushuang patted his sword box.

    “My Qingcheng Mountain Disciples shall fight to protect the common people of the Central Plains.” Fei Xuan and Li Fansong glanced at each other and said softly yet firmly.

    “Tang Sect Disciples have never included anyone afraid of death.” Tang Lianyue’s tone was also very firm.

    Lei Wujie and the other two exchanged glances. Lei Wujie spoke first, “We will send a message to Xiao Se later to inquire. If he is well, the three of us are also willing to go!”

    Si Kong Qianluo and Tang Lian also nodded heavily, Battle Intent flashing in their eyes.

    Yu Xian looked at these martial arts peers from different Schools, with varied personalities but all sharing a concern for the nation. A warm current surged in his heart.

    He slowly nodded, his gaze sweeping over everyone. “Good! Since you all understand righteousness so deeply, then Yu Xian thanks you! However, the journey to Dongying is extremely perilous; we still need to make some preparations. We will depart in two months, and you can return first to make arrangements.”

    “Master!”

    As soon as Yu Xian finished speaking, urgent sounds of horse hooves came from the distance, along with Xiao Se’s voice!

    Xiao Se rode a horse, leading a troop of elite soldiers, arriving quickly. Li Hanyi and Ye Ruoyi, along with Wu Xin, White-Haired Immortal, and Purple-Clad Marquis were beside him.

    Although they were a bit late, and although the crisis at Xue Luo Manor had been resolved, Yu Xian was still very moved seeing Xiao Se and the others looking travel-worn.

    Xiao Se and the others saw the allied forces outside Xue Luo Manor from afar and felt a jolt, but seeing that Yu Xian and the others were safe and the battlefield had not yet been cleaned up, they knew the great battle was already over.

    Although they still didn’t know why there were still so many of the allied forces remaining, it was enough that Yu Xian and the others were unharmed.

    Xiao Se and his group dismounted first and rushed over.

    “Husband, are you all alright?” Li Hanyi and Ye Ruoyi anxiously inquired, then their gazes scanned Yu Xian up and down.

    Xue Luo Manor had faced not just the allied forces of four nations, but six. So many people—they feared even the slightest possibility of misfortune.

    However, seeing that Yu Xian was fine, they then looked at The Women. They were all stained with some dust to varying degrees, but they were all spirited and showed no abnormalities. In comparison, they themselves seemed somewhat more disheveled from their frantic ride back.

    Thus, Li Hanyi and Ye Ruoyi’s hearts finally settled down.

    “You don’t trust your husband!” Yu Xian said with a smile, shaking his head. Seeing the two women covered in road dust, he couldn’t help but feel heartache.

    “Why did you rush back? Weren’t you told to stay in Tianqi City?” Yu Xian asked.

    Li Hanyi and Ye Ruoyi exchanged glances, finally shifting their gazes to Xiao Se.

    Xiao Se then stepped forward and respectfully saluted Yu Xian, “Greetings to Master, and greetings to all the Madam Masters!

    Tianqi City is safe now. My Imperial Father is currently overseeing Tianqi, and I have also dispatched heavy troops to guard the border.

    The various nations did not receive signals from Xue Luo Manor, so they will not act rashly, merely stationing troops at the border. If a real fight breaks out, North Li’s iron cavalry is not afraid.

    However, we were all worried about Master’s side, so… the few of us conferred and decided not to wait for Tianqi City’s follow-up deployment. We rushed here directly with the most elite personal guards we had.”

    Xiao Se said, his gaze sweeping over the still uncleared traces of the battlefield around them, a hint of annoyance on his face. “We thought we would catch up to a fierce battle, but we still arrived a step too late and couldn’t help much.”

    Yu Xian patted Xiao Se’s shoulder and said with satisfaction, “I appreciate your thoughtfulness. You arrived at the perfect time. Send a few trusted subordinates who understand how to lead and manage an army to assist your Senior Brother and the others in receiving these allied forces. They will be our fighting strength for flattening Dongying.”

    Yu Xian said this while glancing at the elite soldiers behind Xiao Se. He had been thinking that although Yang Guo and the others could suppress those allied forces with military might, they had never truly commanded an army before, and managing the troops would certainly be difficult.

    However, Xiao Se’s arrival perfectly solved this problem for him.
