On this day, the passageway between Baichong City and the outside world was finally restored. Good news came from Blazing Light City. A large number of martial artists were teleported over to help defend the city.
The Red Water Squad led by E Lechi was also found. Moreover, the Towering Sky City sent an order for Liao Yangbing and the other two squads to stay in Baichong City to assist City Lord Ge Zhengxiang.
The City Lord's Mansion built a new meeting hall. It was very simple, but it was spacious and dignified. Everyone gathered in it.
Nearly a hundred people were sitting in the hall. They were the three Emperor Wu's and a few captains from Towering Sky City, some Emperor Wu's experts and captains from Blazing Light City, and finally some leaders of Baichong City. The atmosphere was decent. However, Ruan Xiquan was sitting there alone, giving off an indescribable chill. This made the atmosphere extremely awkward.
E Lechi did not know what had happened. However, when he saw Ruan Xiquan's gloomy expression, he knew that there must be something wrong. However, it was not convenient for him to ask. Hence, he could only remain silent with a habitual smile on his face.
Ge Zhengxiang was in high spirits. He said joyfully, "Thank you all for coming all the way here to help us. Let me introduce you all to each other."
Ten squads had come from Blazing Light City. Among them, two were first-rate squads, three were second-rate squads, and five were third-rate squads. As a result, the overall strength of Baichong City had doubled.
Two of the first-rate squads were from the Eastern Region's local sects, the Mountain-Breaking Sect and the Moon-Holding Sword Sect. They were both led by a few middle-level Emperor Wu's elders. Everyone's faces were flickering with arrogance and confidence. It was as if with them, no one could get through.
The elders of the two sects nodded at Ruan Xiquan and E Lechi from Red Moon City. As for the others, they only glanced at them briefly.
Although they were a little arrogant, Ge Zhengxiang was still very happy. After introducing them to everyone, some of the founding members of Baichong City also looked happy. They were all smiling at each other.
E Lechi said, "We will definitely do our best to assist City Lord. It won't be a problem for us to protect a mere city."
He also knew a lot about the battlefront in the East Sea. All the experts in the offshore area were gathered in Motian Giant City. In other places, there were just some small fries at most. Therefore, it was much safer to stay here.
Ge Zhengxiang expressed his gratitude, then looked at Li Yunxiao and said, "What does Lord Feiyang think about our chances of defending the city?"
Everyone was stunned and frowned slightly. They sized up Li Yunxiao, not understanding why Ge Zhengxiang would consult this person.
Li Yunxiao smiled slightly, but his smile was a little bitter. The key to defending the city was still whether Pu Jinshan's Great Five Elements Barrier could block that deep sea giant beast. If it could, then the city would be fine. If it couldn't, then unless another hundred teams came and used their numbers to annihilate the beast, they would still die.
A trace of worry flashed across Ge Zhengxiang's face. He asked tentatively, "Does Lord Feiyang feel uncertain?"
Li Yunxiao sighed, "I hope so."
His statement immediately made Ge Zhengxiang's heart heavy, and the atmosphere in the hall became slightly oppressive.
"Haha, I hope so?"
Yan Shushu, the Mountain Destruction Sect's elder, laughed coldly. He raised his chin and looked at Li Yunxiao with disdain. He said, "What is this person's name? How dare you spout nonsense here! "
Li Yunxiao shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "I didn't say I hope so, did I say I hope not?"
Yan Shushu's face darkened, and he shouted, "How dare you! In this place, only Jiutian Emperor Wu's experts have the right to speak. Who do you think you are, to dare to speak so casually?! "
Everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they all had different expressions. Ge Zhengxiang cursed inwardly, and hurriedly stood up to mediate. However, he heard Ruan Xiquan's strange voice behind him. "Hmph, with Lord Feiyang's divine might, what sea beast can't be killed? Don't scare us small fries here."
"Haha, Lord Xiquan is really humorous."
Yan Shushu laughed mockingly, and said to Ruan Xiquan in an ingratiating manner, "For an ignorant junior like him, just give him a hundred slaps and let him reflect on himself."
A cold smile flashed across Ruan Xiquan's face. He squinted his eyes and said, "That's not good. After all, we are all on the same side, and we are all fighting for the human race."
Yan Shushu hurriedly became respectful, and loudly praised, "Lord Xiquan is really noble. You look at the big picture, and I am ashamed of my inferiority!"
Ruan Xiquan's face reddened, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Xiquan is too serious. Let's listen to Lord Feiyang's opinion."
"Haha, what opinion can he have?"
A hint of contempt flashed across Yan Shushu's eyes, and then he laughed, "Fine, I have to learn from Lord Xiquan's breadth of mind. Let's listen to him spout nonsense."
Everyone gave Yan Shushu a look of disdain. This flattery was no different from kneeling down to lick someone's boots. You are, after all, a mid-level Emperor Wu. Is it really okay to flatter like this?
However, Yan Shushu acted as if nothing had happened, and he continued to sit proudly.
E Lechi did not know the details, but he realized that something was wrong. Both he and Ruan Xiquan came from Red Moon City, and he knew that Ruan Xiquan was not someone who was easy to talk to. There must be something going on between Ruan Xiquan and Li Yunxiao.
Ge Zhengxiang also hurriedly said, "Everyone is here for the matter of Bai Chong City, so please don't misunderstand. Although Lord Feiyang is only an eight-star Martial Saint, his strength is definitely not ordinary. "
"Oh?"
Yan Shushu said disdainfully, "Then if there's a chance, we must ask Lord Feiyang to give us some pointers. Haha, haha!"
Ge Zhengxiang was very anxious. The Sea Race had not arrived yet, and if they caused an internal conflict, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Li Yunxiao said calmly, "There will be a chance."
Yan Shushu's laughter immediately stopped, and his face darkened. He shouted, "Brat, what did you say?"
Gu Yuesheng had been carefully standing behind Li Yunxiao, and her face was expressionless. At this moment, she raised her eyes slightly, and looked at Yan Shushu with unconcealable mockery.
Ruan Xiquan was secretly pleased. He also hoped to borrow the strength of these two factions to deal with Li Yunxiao. Even now, he did not dare to confirm Li Yunxiao's cultivation, but he did not dare to make another move.
E Lechi frowned, and said, "Elder Shushu, the war is urgent now, and I hope that you can give me some face. If there are any grudges or unhappiness, why don't we talk about it after we defend the city? "
Yan Shushu hurriedly said, "Since Lord Lechi is pleading for this brat, I will naturally not pursue this matter for now."
E Lechi nodded slightly, but saw Ruan Xiquan casting an angry gaze at him. He became even more curious about what had happened between the two.
He looked at Liao Yangbing, and saw that Liao Yangbing also had her eyes half-closed, pretending not to see anything. He could only look at Li Yunxiao again, but saw that Li Yunxiao's eyes were still as water, as if nothing had happened. E Lechi could not help but smile bitterly, and said, "Young Master Feiyang, do you know the situation of the sea race here very well?"
Li Yunxiao said, "I know a little. I know that they have a very large sea beast, and it is very powerful. I don't know if it can withstand it."
E Lechi asked, "How powerful is it?"
Li Yunxiao said, "I can't tell you in detail, and I don't know if that sea beast can land and fight. I hope not, otherwise the situation will be very serious."
The Moon Bearing Sword Sect's elder, Jing Yongye, who had been silent all this while, said, "If it is a huge beast, there is no need to worry too much. This time, my Moon Bearing Sword Sect has brought three Rank Eight Netherworld Warships, and they are the best against huge beasts."
Ge Zhengxiang was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "With three Rank Eight Warships, there is nothing to worry about! I will never forget the Moon Bearing Sword Sect's righteousness! "
Jing Yongye said seriously, "It is our duty to defend our race!"
Li Yunxiao was also slightly happy. With three Netherworld Warships and the Great Five Elements Barrier, they might really be able to withstand that deep sea giant beast.
Ge Zhengxiang bowed to everyone, and said, "The safety of Bai Chong City is in your hands!"
Everyone hurriedly got up, and no one dared to accept his bow.
Suddenly, a sharp whistle came from outside the hall, and it pierced everyone's eardrums.
Ge Zhengxiang's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "There is an enemy!"
Liao Yangbing's pupils shrank, and he said seriously, "They actually came so quickly?" He looked at Li Yunxiao.
Ge Zhengxiang did the same. Although he was the city lord, it seemed that everything was decided by Li Yunxiao. Yan Shushu immediately frowned, and a trace of doubt and haze appeared on his face.
Jing Yongye also raised his eyebrows, but he did not say anything.
Li Yunxiao's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Let's go up the city tower first."
Nearly a hundred experts flew up the city tower under Ge Zhengxiang's lead, and stood in a row, looking into the distance.
The figures of the sea race could not be seen on the horizon, but everyone could feel an aura of an impending storm. Everyone's expression turned serious.
Jing Yongye's eyes stared outside the city, and he said suspiciously, "That is …"
Ge Zhengxiang hurriedly explained, "That is an array master invited by Sir Feiyang, and he has set up an extremely powerful restriction outside the city."
He, Liao Yangbing, and the others all muttered in their hearts. Pu Jinshan and Gu Yuesheng seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and they did not know when Li Yunxiao called them over. Or were they old acquaintances, and the two of them had always been in the city?
"I see."
Jing Yongye nodded, and he could not help but size up Li Yunxiao again, and said, "I didn't expect there to be an array master overseeing this place. It should be foolproof."
Yan Shushu sneered, and said, "Even array masters are divided into many types. I see that there is nothing outside, and there is no trace of an array at all. Could it be that this array master forgot to set it up? "
Everyone frowned, and they looked down the city. Indeed, they could not feel any powerful restriction, and they were full of doubts.
Li Yunxiao looked into the distance, and he knew that it would take some time for the sea race army to reach the city, so he turned and walked toward Yan Shushu.
Ge Zhengxiang was shocked, and he hurriedly went forward to stop him, and said, "Sir Feiyang …"
Li Yunxiao frowned, and said indifferently, "Previously, this sir asked me to give him some pointers, and I was planning to give him this opportunity."
Yan Shushu was stunned for a moment, and then his face sank, and he said coldly, "Boy, what did you say? My ears are very bad. "
Ge Zhengxiang was so anxious that his forehead was full of sweat, and he hurriedly said, "Sir Feiyang, united front, united front!"
