Lu Xuan stood up and said, "Come, let's go take a look."
"Brother Lu, please." Nangong Lie extended his right hand and led the way for Lu Xuan. As the head of the Nangong family, it was rare for him to be so courteous to Lu Xuan. However, this also proved how much Nangong Lie valued the continuation of the Nangong family's lineage.
After leaving Nangong Lie's stone room, Lu Xuan's group quickly arrived at a relatively spacious area in the valley. What entered Lu Xuan's eyes was a dense crowd of men and women, young and old. However, what was different was that there were about a hundred and fifty people gathered in the center of the crowd.
Lu Xuan took a closer look and discovered that the group consisted of young adults and a few children. There wasn't a single elderly person. Seeing this, Lu Xuan understood. Without a doubt, this was the group of people that Nangong Lie was preparing to move to the Jiuhua Alliance.
At that moment, Nangong Tianhan, who stood at the front of the group, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Envoy of the Jiuhua Alliance!"
"Greetings, Envoy of the Jiuhua Alliance!" The hundred or so people behind Nangong Tianhan said in unison.
Lu Xuan revealed a faint smile and gestured with his hand. "No need to be so courteous. I am a friend of your family head, so naturally, I am also a friend of the Nangong family."
Nangong Lie walked to Lu Xuan's side and said, "Brother Lu, these are the people that I'm preparing to move to the Jiuhua Alliance. Uncle Han will lead them. Is there a problem?"
Lu Xuan swept his eyes over the crowd. An advance party of one hundred and fifty people was completely within Lu Xuan's scope of acceptance. Moreover, most of the people in this group were youths, and there weren't many strong fighters. In other words, even if this group of people left, it wouldn't affect the overall strength of the Nangong family much.
"No problem, but … they don't seem to be that strong." Lu Xuan spoke slowly. Among the one hundred and fifty people, only Nangong Tianhan was at the peak of the Great Void Realm, three were at the late stage of the Great Void Realm, and fifteen were at the early and middle stage of the Great Void Realm. The rest were mostly at the Origin Realm, and some of the younger ones were only at the Spirit Refinement Realm.
Nangong Lie chuckled. "I have full faith in the Alliance. I'm sure you'll arrange a safe place for us to rest. This level of strength is enough."
Lu Xuan glanced at Nangong Lie. "The Jiuhua Alliance will not betray your trust. Have they prepared everything they need? If there's nothing else, we'll set off now. "
"Everything is ready. Brother Lu, please lead the way." Nangong Lie cupped his hands.
Lu Xuan nodded, then turned around and walked outside. If he wanted to send these people away, he naturally had to use the secret teleportation formation that the Dark Shadow Hall had set up here. At that moment, people from the Nangong Clan were saying their goodbyes one after another.
"Hong 'er, don't neglect your cultivation in the Jiuhua Alliance."
"Brother Rong, I'll leave my son in your care. From now on, you'll be half a father to him."
"Father, mother, I'll be leaving now. Take care, I'll be waiting for you in the Jiuhua Alliance!"
… …
Without a doubt, the first batch of people Nangong Lie sent away were the younger generation of the various clans. This was the only way to ensure the continuation of the family line. Also, sending away the younger generation wouldn't cause any dissatisfaction. As for the middle-aged cultivators, they were necessary guards.
After leaving the valley occupied by the Nangong Clan, the group began trekking through the Fiery Forest. Lu Xuan wasn't familiar with the area, so he couldn't tell which direction to go. He also didn't know where the Anying Hall's secret teleportation formation was. Fortunately, Song Jianbai was there. Under his guidance, the group quickly made their way to the teleportation formation.
This time, Lu Xuan didn't inform Yi Yong. This kind of matter was up to him to decide. It didn't matter if Yi Yong came or not.
"We're here." Song Jianbai said. He stopped at a clearing and took out a token. Using the token, he activated a technique. A beam of green light shot out, and the ground in front of them began to emit a gentle light. A teleportation formation slowly appeared.
"Uncle Han, I'll leave everything to you." Nangong Lie cupped his hands towards Nangong Tianhan.
"I won't let you down. Take care, Patriarch. This old man will await your arrival in the Jiuhua Alliance," Nangong Tianhan said seriously. Nangong Tianhan said seriously. In truth, he did not intend to leave first, but Nangong Lie said that he could not leave, and Nangong Tianyou could not speak, so he could not shoulder such a heavy responsibility. However, this trip required a pinnacle of the Great Void Realm to oversee it.
Nangong Tianyou stepped forward and patted his elder brother on the shoulder. There was no need for words.
"Elder Tianhan, I have a letter here. When you arrive at the Jiuhua Alliance, you can pass it to Alliance Leader Ye. Alliance Leader Ye will definitely make arrangements for all of you." Lu Xuan took out a sealed letter and handed it to Nangong Tianhan.
Nangong Tianhan naturally kept it safe. Lu Xuan had previously boasted that the Nangong Clan wouldn't have to worry about anything in the Jiuhua Alliance. This letter was undoubtedly a letter of recommendation.
After everything was settled, Nangong Lie began to organize the members of the Nangong Clan to step into the teleportation formation. As he watched the Nangong Clan members disappear one by one, Nangong Lie felt both melancholy and relief.
He was melancholy because the Nangong Clan had finally been forced to give up on the land they had lived on for so long. He was relieved because even if the Nangong Clan members who had stayed behind were all wiped out, the Nangong Clan's seed had been preserved. Nangong Lie had even handed the Blaze Crystal Ball to Nangong Tianhan.
After sending off the last Nangong Clan member, Song Jianbai took out the token once more and sealed the barrier. All traces of the teleportation formation disappeared, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
Lu Xuan turned to Nangong Lie and said, "Brother Nangong, I've done what I promised you. Now, I'll have to ask Brother Nangong to lend me a hand."
Nangong Lie smiled and said, "Brother Lu, you don't have to worry about the clansmen who stayed behind not doing their best. Their descendants have already been sent away, so there's nothing for them to worry about. Moreover, they know that if they want their descendants to live a good life, and if they want to see them again, the only way is to help Brother Lu."
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "That couldn't be better. In three days, we'll leave the Blazing Forest and head for Sky Saint City!"
Nangong Lie readily agreed. He was slightly excited in his heart. Sky Saint City was the headquarters of the Sikong Clan! Although he and his group had turned Scarlet Flame City upside down and even activated the Scarlet Flame Palace's self-destruct formation, dealing a severe blow to the Fang Clan, it didn't affect the Sikong Clan too much.
The Nangong Clan's true enemy was still the Sikong Clan. Nangong Lie had already made up his mind. Even if he couldn't deal a heavy blow to the Sikong Clan, he would still turn them upside down and ruthlessly bite off a piece of flesh from the Sikong Clan. He would let the Sikong Clan know that the Nangong Clan wasn't so easily bullied!
