The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

After covering the shelter, Lu Yuan activated Blood Shadow Escape and headed north.

Moments later, the edge of the space probe detected a beast tide.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Yuan turned and ran!

According to his estimation, the Howling Moon Wolf should have already gone south, but even so, there are still two king-level demonic beasts here.

Moreover, there's that god-level white tiger!

That white tiger's speed is probably no less than that of the Howling Moon Wolf.

If Lu Yuan dared to delay even slightly, his life might be in danger.

Fortunately, the white tiger did not attack him, nor did it chase after him.

It seems that in the eyes of the White Tiger, Lu Yuan and everyone in Chongming Base City are already trapped in its cage, so there is no need to rush to make a move now.

Upon returning to base, Xia Banzhu was already directing everyone to make final defensive preparations.

The group consisted of 300 members of the Wu Gu Camp, 300 members of the Wilderness Camp, 6 members of the Nan Dou Squad, Xia Banzhu, Lei Tieming, the four death warriors, Shen Fengxing and his 100 Beichen Army soldiers, as well as 32 other martial artists from the Wilderness Village.

Including Lu Yuan, the Beikan base now has a total of 746 people!

In fact, Lu Yuan initially planned to send the Nandou team to the shelter, partly out of personal reasons, but also because they had only recently joined the Beikan base.

This battle of defense actually had little to do with them.

However, not only Shen Qiubing and Ye Qingluan, but also Jin Xinxin and the others refused.

According to them, since they were already part of the North Kan base, they should live and die with the North Kan base, even if only for a day.

Moreover, the entire Chongming Base City is currently facing a crisis, and as martial artists of Chongming Base City, they have no reason to back down at this time.

After taking a look, Lu Yuan handed the matter over to Xia Banzhu, and had no reason to worry.

Next, we went to the communications room and opened the Northern Wilderness group.

[Lu Yuan: I've already scouted the area, and I estimate the beast tide will arrive in three to five days. What are your plans, everyone?]

After sending it, Lu Yuan stared quietly at the screen.

He wasn't surprised at all that there was no reply.

After all, at this point, even in the base city, many people had already abandoned the city and fled, let alone in the Northern Wilderness.

[Dugu Feiying: What else can we do but fight!]

Pei Xuan: The defenses of the Starry Sky Hall are complete.

[Liu Bofeng: Since this battle is unavoidable, let us become the first line of defense!]

[Shaoyang City: This battle is extremely risky; as the frontline, our chances of survival are slim. But given the situation and our duty, we cannot afford to consider gains or losses.]

[Dong Pengfei: Fuck him! Northern Wilderness is my life's work. If anyone destroys it, I'll fight them to the death!]

[Somo: Damn it! Can you guys type a little slower? Stop interrupting me!]

[Xiao Dumu: Old Suo, you can't blame anyone else for this. Who told you to have fingers as thick as carrots?]

[Ye Hongyun: The Ye family will live and die with Chongming!]

Meng Xuanwu: Fight to the death, never retreat!

[Ye Qingcang: Fight to the death!]

……

Looking at the scrolling messages on the screen, Lu Yuan paused for a moment, then couldn't help but smile.

He had prepared himself to fight alone, but to his surprise, his old rivals were still around.

Now, at least I won't be alone anymore.

[Ye Hongyun: Come here for a moment.]

With nothing much to do at the moment, Lu Yuan was just about to chat with these guys when he suddenly received a private message from Ye Hongyun.

Why send him there?

However, Lu Yuan didn't think too much about it. After all, everyone was in the same boat now, and whatever it was, it was definitely to deal with this beast tide.

Lu Yuan immediately stood up, activated his Blood Shadow Escape, and headed to the Ye family base.

A moment later, they arrived, where Ye Hongyun and Ye Qingcang were already waiting at the door.

"Come with us."

Ye Hongyun said something and then turned to leave.

Lu Yuan didn't waste any time and followed immediately.

After winding and turning, we finally arrived at a very secluded room underground.

"You're here too."

Upon seeing Ye Honglan, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Unexpectedly, the Ye family also staked their Sword King in the Northern Wilderness.

Or did this guy not go back at all?

"Why are you being so secretive? What's going on?"

"Teaching the Ye family sword technique should, of course, be done in secrecy."

"What did you say?"

"Let's sign the contract first."

Ye Hongyun stood to the side and directly pulled out a contract.

Lu Yuan took it, opened it, glanced at it, and couldn't help but look surprised again.

It was he who proposed the contract to exchange the energy-absorbing gold mine for the Ye family's sword technique.

Of course, besides the 40% stake, the Ye family also had other things, such as the formula for the pseudo-core pill, but these were not major problems for Lu Yuan.

"No, at this point, what do you still need that mine for?"

After reading it, Lu Yuan looked at Ye Hongyun and the others with a puzzled expression.

After this beast tide, even if humanity manages to hold on, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

In the entire Northern Wilderness, it would be a miracle if any of these bases and strongholds survived. Not to mention the mines, which would surely be destroyed in an instant.

"In addition to the formula, we also need some finished products regarding the pseudo-nucleus pills. Don't tell me you don't have any."

Ye Hongyun did not answer, but instead added a sentence.

"Heh, that's easy."

Lu Yuan smiled and took out twenty pseudo-core pills directly from his spatial ring.

"Is that enough?"

"That's enough!"

Looking at the twenty pseudo-core pills, Ye Hongyun's face lit up with joy, and she solemnly said something.

"Thank you!"

"It is the Ye family that I should thank."

Lu Yuan smiled, but his face remained serious.

At this moment, he understood perfectly well that the Ye family was passing on the Ye family sword technique to him for the sake of the entire Northern Wilderness, and even the entire Chongming Base City.

After all, everyone is on the same ship right now, and only by increasing everyone's strength as much as possible can we save the ship.

Although it was for the greater good, Lu Yuan still admired Lu Yuan from the bottom of his heart that Lu Yuan was willing to entrust the family's fate to an outsider.

"Oh, there's one more thing."

At this moment, Ye Hongyun suddenly spoke again.

"You are, after all, an outsider. It would be against the rules to pass on the Ye family sword technique to you. The patriarch and the others discussed it and came up with a compromise: you must marry a woman from the Ye family."

"ha?"

Lu Yuan blinked. What did that mean?

But at this point, why bother with all that? Just laugh it off.

"As for the wedding, it seems we'll have to wait until after this beast tide."

"That's easy to say."

Ye Hongyun smiled and, after finishing speaking, turned to look at Ye Honglan.

"Let's begin."

Ye Honglan spoke in a serious voice.

"The Ye family sword technique is unfathomable. Let alone a few days, even a lifetime would be insufficient to master its essence. But with your comprehension, well, there are only a few days left anyway. Just learn as much as you can."

"good!"

Lu Yuan nodded and silently activated the mysterious tattoo.

To be honest, he still doesn't know the origin of this tattoo, which is quite a pity.

"The Ye family sword techniques all originate from a single sword intent, which is what you call a high-grade Earth-rank combat skill."

Ye Honglan didn't waste any more words, and then said in a deep voice.

"It's called the Sword Intent of Wild Grass!"
