Chapter 235 The beast tide is coming, the Nascent Soul appears [Subscribe]
The Jiaolong clan has joined the war!
When Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun learned the news, their faces changed drastically and they were horrified.
This is undoubtedly what they, or all the monks of Jingguo, are worried about.
It was because they were worried that the Jiaolong clan in Longyuanze would join the war that the three major sects of Jingguo insisted on a quick victory, only seeking to kill the living forces of the Hualong Sect without aiming to occupy territory.
Unexpectedly, only twenty days had passed and the Jiaolong clan had already decided to join the war!
This is a big deal!
Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun looked at each other, and then Zhou Chun asked, "Fellow Daoist Lin, are you sure the beast tide is divided into two waves? Are you sure there is another wave of beasts heading towards Jingguo?"
"Yes, this is the exact information that my godmother personally found out!"
Lin Wan'er nodded heavily, confirming the authenticity of the news.
Now the two people from the Zhou family no longer had any hope of luck.
Zhou Mingde immediately asked, "Does Fellow Daoist Lin Hongyu have any ideas? Did she confess anything else?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er replied solemnly, "My godmother said that she would find a way to find the location of the red fire dragon, and then ask Senior Zhou to help contact some Jindan stage cultivators to kill the dragon!"
She also knew what Lin Hongyu was planning, so her expression and tone were extremely serious at this moment.
it is as expected!
Zhou Mingde sighed inwardly, then nodded and said, "I understand. Fellow Daoist Lin, please tell Fellow Daoist Lin Hongyu that as long as she can determine the location of the red fire dragon and there is indeed a suitable opportunity to kill the dragon, I will definitely do my best to help her!"
Regardless of whether it can be done or not, the promise must be made.
Of course, Lin Wan'er didn't know what he was really thinking. After seeing him make a promise, she felt relieved and her expression relaxed a lot.
He immediately responded respectfully: "I will definitely tell my godmother what Senior Zhou said!"
Then he withdrew on his own.
After she left, Zhou Chun suddenly said, "This woman is quite capable. She was able to enter and leave the camp so many times. It seems that Lin Hongyu has connections with other forces besides our Zhou family!"
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Since that woman Lin Hongyu dares to cooperate with our Zhou family, she will naturally dare to cooperate with others."
Zhou Mingde nodded, agreeing with Zhou Chun's statement.
Then he frowned and said in a deep voice: "The situation is very bad now. The participation of the Jiaolong clan may completely change the outcome of the war. The impact of the beast tide on Jingguo may also put the cultivators left behind in the family in danger!"
"Do you mean to report the news of the beast tide to the higher-ups immediately?"
Zhou Chun was stunned, but he understood the deep meaning of Zhou Mingde's words.
"I do have this idea, but I don't want to expose the relationship between our Zhou family and Lin Hongyu. I am in a dilemma!"
Zhou Mingde nodded slightly and expressed his plan with an embarrassed look on his face.
This is not because he wants to gain merit or receive awards, but is purely for his own safety and the overall situation.
Under the current circumstances, if Liu Yiping and other Jindan stage cultivators were informed earlier about the Jiaolong clan's participation in the war, they would be able to make countermeasures earlier.
Otherwise, when the beast tide really reaches the White Dragon branch and we discover this, it will be too late!
However, if we report it like this, although it may save many people, it will also plant a bomb for the Zhou family that could explode at any time.
Perhaps considering his contribution in reporting the news at this time, Liu Yiping will not pursue the collusion between the Zhou family and Lin Hongyu for the time being.
But after the war, it is hard to say whether Qinglian Temple will not settle accounts with the Zhou family.
So Zhou Mingde is indeed feeling very embarrassed now.
Zhou Chun was also aware of this, so after hearing his words, he looked thoughtful.
After pondering for a while, Zhou Chun suddenly looked up and said thoughtfully, "How about giving the credit to Senior Lu Ran for reporting the news? We can say that it was Senior Lu who discovered the information about the unusual movements of the monsters, and then found out about the monster tide, and then used the Thousand Mile Communication Talisman to contact us!"
"As long as we can remind Senior Liu and the others in time, I think at this time, they won't have the energy to carefully investigate the truth of this matter!"
He is choosing the lesser of two evils.
Compared to such a heinous act as colluding with the Hualong Sect's guardian Lin Hongyu to murder the Jiang family's Purple Mansion cultivator, making friends and trading with Lu Ran, who had already possessed the body of the alien scaly frog, was undoubtedly a much lighter crime.
Moreover, Lu Ran was undoubtedly one of the major contributors to the three major sects' determination to march south to conquer the Hualong Sect.
Whether the Zhou family committed a crime by trading with it is a matter of debate.
At least Qinglian Temple must know that the Zhou family is making such a small move!
After all, the Zhou family did not conceal the fact that they placed orders for weapons and elixirs in Hongya Market, and there were traces of the various aquatic treasures on sale.
If we can take this opportunity to "legalize" the trade between the Zhou family and Lu Ran, it will be a good thing for the Zhou family.
"Well, this is a feasible plan."
Zhou Mingde's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but murmured, "Although we have never bought the Thousand Mile Communication Talisman, we can completely say that this item is a family heritage, or that it is a treasure owned by Daoist Fellow Lu Ran. I guess no one will pursue such details!"
At this point, he couldn't help but clap his hands and shouted, "And in this way, if we want to help Lin Hongyu kill the red fire dragon later, maybe we can do it in the name of Daoist Fellow Lu Ran. After all, he was also the guardian of the Red Dragon Hall!"
It was not difficult to tell from his tone and expression that he had completely agreed with Zhou Chun's strategy.
At this time, Zhou Chun also reminded him, "You may as well tell Senior Liu about this matter through Senior Li!"
"Zhengchun, you are right. It will be beneficial for both of our families if we convey this matter through Senior Li."
Zhou Mingde nodded repeatedly and immediately understood Zhou Chun's reminder.
Li Jingxuan had previously escorted the Zhou family, so now he was returning the favor by delivering the message, which could be considered a courtesy.
Moreover, having him, a Jindan-stage cultivator, relay the news of the beast tide would undoubtedly attract Liu Yiping's attention.
After discussing some details, Zhou Mingde immediately went to visit the Li family’s residence.
Li Jingxuan was originally taking advantage of the time to meditate and recover his magic power, and could not be easily disturbed.
However, at Zhou Mingde's earnest request, the Li family's Purple Mansion cultivator still passed on the message.
When Li Jingxuan met Zhou Mingde and learned of his purpose, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Then he hurriedly took Zhou Mingde to meet Liu Yiping.
With the guidance of Li Jingxuan, a Jindan-stage cultivator, Zhou Mingde soon met the awakened Liu Yiping. "Fellow Daoist Zhou, please tell Fellow Daoist Liu the whole story!"
Inside the stone hall, after greeting Liu Yiping, Li Jingxuan did not waste any time and directly asked Zhou Mingde to explain the matter.
"Yes, junior, I obey."
Zhou Mingde responded, bowed to Liu Yiping, and then told him the story he and Zhou Chun had fabricated.
As expected, after hearing that the Dragon Transformation Sect had gained the support of the Jiaolong Clan and launched a beast tide to invade the White Dragon Branch and Jingguo mainland, Liu Yiping's face changed drastically with shock.
His expression changed drastically, his eyes glared at Zhou Mingde, and he said sternly, "Are you serious about what you said? Do you know what the consequences will be if you lie about this matter?"
As he spoke, the intimidating aura of the late Jindan cultivator was fully unleashed, instantly causing Zhou Mingde's body to tremble, and his legs almost gave way and he almost fell to the ground.
Moreover, being stared at by him with such a sharp gaze, Zhou Mingde felt as if his brain was frozen and he couldn't think of anything at all.
All he could do was to say in a trembling voice, "Senior, please understand. I just received this news and only came to report it to you because I felt it was of great importance. Whether it is true or not, I cannot guarantee it completely!"
He knew in his heart that even though Lin Wan'er swore that the news was absolutely true, he could never really say that in front of Liu Yiping.
Otherwise, if it was really false, not only would he be unable to bear the consequences, but the Zhou family would also be implicated.
So he would rather not have the credit than take the risk.
After hearing his answer, Liu Yiping also looked at him deeply for a while, then nodded slightly and said: "Liu understands, Liu will invite fellow Daoist Jin and fellow Daoist Qingsu to discuss this matter!"
After saying that, he called Jin Chixuan and Taoist nun Qingsu over and told them about the beast tide.
Sure enough, after hearing about the beast tide, Jin Chixuan and Taoist nun Qingsu were also shocked and stunned by the news.
At the same time, as the grand elder of Qinglian Temple, Taoist nun Qingsu was very clear about the source of the information about the Hualong Sect feeding dragons with humans, and she knew that there was indeed such a special person as Lu Ran.
Therefore, after some discussion among the three of them, Taoist Nun Qingsu decided to go and investigate the beast tide herself, and Liu Yiping also had to be prepared to retreat at any time.
Time waits for no one. After the three of them made a plan, they immediately took action.
As for Zhou Mingde, Liu Yiping had no time to dig into the details and just asked him to go back and wait for news.
After he returned to his residence, he immediately took the time to meditate and recover.
Whether he fights or escapes, it is not expected to be smooth sailing. There will definitely be fierce battles to be fought, and he must keep himself in good condition.
After another half a day, the Taoist nun Qingsu, who had gone out to investigate the situation, finally came back.
"The beast tide outbreak is real!"
"After traveling two or three thousand miles eastward, I discovered a tide of beasts rushing towards us. There were tens of thousands of monsters among them, and there were also fourth-level dragons and other fourth-level monsters driving the tide forward!"
"According to my observations, the beast tide will arrive here in two days at most, and the number of monsters in the beast tide may exceed 50,000!"
Inside the stone hall, Taoist nun Qingsu, who had just returned from investigation, looked at Liu Yiping and Jin Chixuan and told them the results of her investigation in a heavy tone.
This result undoubtedly confirmed Zhou Mingde's intelligence, and also made Liu Yiping and Jin Chixuan's faces change drastically.
"Fellow Daoist Qingsu, do you know how many fourth-level monsters there are in the beast tide?"
After Liu Yiping's expression changed, he quickly asked the key question.
When Taoist Nun Qingsu heard what he said, she immediately replied: "Based on what I have observed, there are two fourth-level dragons in the beast tide, and five other fourth-level monsters. I don't know if there will be more in the future!"
As soon as the words fell, Liu Yiping and Jin Chixuan both looked relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Liu Yiping quickly expressed his own opinion and said: "It seems that this wave of beast tide is only to rescue the rebels of the Hualong Sect of the White Dragon Branch. The real main force of the beast tide may be heading towards the country!"
His tone was very low, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or worried.
The other two people felt the same way as he did.
The fact that the main force of the beast tide did not come this way was certainly a good thing for them, but it was a huge bad thing for the country.
You have to know that the last time Jingguo encountered a large-scale beast tide was three or four hundred years ago.
"A large beast tide cannot happen suddenly. It requires at least a fifth-level monster to participate in it!"
"If the main force of the beast tide is really heading for China, then this must be a long-planned plan by the Dragon Transformation Cult. At least they have had this plan for a long time!"
After a long silence, Jin Chixuan expressed his opinion with a heavy face.
They had all experienced the beast tide three or four hundred years ago, and they knew very well what conditions were needed to trigger such a large-scale beast tide.
At this time, Taoist nun Qingsu looked at the two and asked, "So what should we do next? Should we continue to fight, or should we withdraw our troops and return home to resist the beast tide?"
Hearing her words, Jin Chixuan immediately said: "Let's consult the ancestors about this. I'm afraid we don't have the power to decide this matter!"
Liu Yiping opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, which meant he agreed to this method.
Upon seeing this, Taoist Nun Qingsu immediately looked at Liu Yiping and said, "Then please ask Daoist Brother Liu to contact the Silver Moon Patriarch of your sect!"
"Okay, Liu will contact the ancestor right away!"
Liu Yiping nodded, then waved his hand and took out a silver-white mirror.
Then he clasped his hands together and cast a spell towards the magic mirror, and the magic mirror began to spin in the air.
After dozens of breaths had passed, a silver light flashed on the mirror, and suddenly the face of an old man with silver hair and a youthful appearance appeared.
After the face of the silver-haired old man emerged, his eyes swept over the three people in the stone hall, and then fell on Liu Yiping, and then he said indifferently: "Tell me, what exactly do you want to contact me for?"
"Grandmaster, I dare to disturb you because I have urgent military information to report."
Liu Yiping respectfully bowed to the silver-haired old man in the mirror and told him about the beast tide outbreak.
At the end, he bowed his head and said, "Now whether to fight or retreat, we dare not make decisions on our own, we can only respectfully ask for instructions from the ancestor!"
