Immediately after, Jianchen looked out of the window. Outside the window, there were more than a dozen large carriages parked in a row. Each carriage was loaded with several large iron boxes. A large number of soldiers wearing the same armor were guarding the carriages with a serious expression. Their sharp eyes constantly swept through the crowd, causing the passersby to look curiously at them.
Jianchen's eyes stopped for a moment on the large iron boxes. A strange light flashed in his eyes. He could feel that there was a strong energy fluctuation in the large iron boxes. Jianchen had encountered a similar situation before. When a large number of magic cores were piled up together, there would be such a reaction.
"Could it be that all of these large iron boxes are filled with magic cores?" Jianchen secretly thought in his heart. But as soon as this thought came to his mind, he was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. If the situation was as he expected, then how many magic cores were stored in these large iron boxes? This was definitely a terrifying number.
Jianchen calmly looked away and no longer paid attention to the large iron boxes. He was afraid that he would arouse the suspicion of those soldiers.
"This time, the Kingdom of Gesun is completely finished. Although they are stronger than our Blue Wind Kingdom, but this time, four of our kingdoms are attacking them at the same time. No matter how strong they are, they won't be able to withstand the joint attack of our four kingdoms." Suddenly, one of the few middle-aged men who came in at the beginning whispered.
"Yes, if you want to blame someone, you can only blame the Kingdom of Gesun for occupying all of that rich land. Previously, we were afraid of that old man from Changyang Prefecture, so we didn't dare to touch the Kingdom of Gesun. But now, that old man from Changyang Prefecture has been missing for many years. He's probably dead. Without that old man, I'd like to see how the Kingdom of Gesun can withstand the joint attack of our four kingdoms this time." Another middle-aged man sneered.
"Third brother, you can't say that. Although the old man from Changyang Prefecture is probably dead, the strength of the Kingdom of Gesun is still not weak. They have ten experts on the surface, and every single one of them is a Heaven Saint Master. Just this point alone makes them much stronger than our Blue Wind Kingdom. Who knows how many more Heaven Saint Masters they have hidden in the dark?"
"That's right. None of the ten Heaven Saint Masters on the surface are from Changyang Prefecture. According to my master, the old man from Changyang Prefecture had a servant who was also a Heaven Saint Master. However, he always kept a low profile, so very few people know about him. Including him, the Kingdom of Gesun has at least eleven Heaven Saint Masters, which is three more than our Blue Wind Kingdom."
"If it was just our Blue Wind Kingdom going against the Kingdom of Gesun, we would definitely be defeated. It's a pity that we have an alliance of four kingdoms this time. There are almost thirty Heaven Saint Masters. Hmph, I'd like to see how the Kingdom of Gesun will stop us this time."
A few middle-aged men who seemed to be generals discussed. Although the inn was already filled with people, they were the only ones who were talking. Therefore, even though their voices were soft, Jianchen could still hear them clearly.
Jianchen's heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. His expression became rather complicated. It was filled with longing and worry. Changyang Prefecture was his first home in this world, so he had special feelings for it. Although there were not many people who truly cared about Jianchen, there were still a few people who Jianchen missed. His elder brother, Changyang Hu, and his second sister, Changyang Mingyue, were all people who truly cared for him. There was also his mother, Bi Yuntian, who had taken care of him in every possible way since he was young.
Now that he heard that the alliance of four kingdoms was attacking the Kingdom of Gesun, not only did Jianchen begin to worry for his family in Changyang Prefecture, he even thought of returning to the Kingdom of Gesun immediately. However, this thought was quickly extinguished by Jianchen. He was not an impulsive person. He knew his current strength very well. With the help of the Azulet Sword Spirits, he could barely deal with regular Earth Saint Masters. In front of Heaven Saint Masters, he probably could not even fight back. Even though he had never seen a Heaven Saint Master in action, it was not difficult for him to estimate their strength.
Jianchen lowered his head and ate the food one mouthful at a time. His movements were somewhat numb and stiff. He had lost his appetite from before.
At this moment, one of the middle-aged men who seemed to be generals spoke up, "Do you think that old man from Changyang Prefecture will suddenly appear? Although he has been missing for many years and is most likely dead, this is only our guess."
"That old man has reached his peak long ago. I think he went missing a few decades ago to seek a breakthrough," someone said.
"Then could he have broken through? Once he breaks through, we …"
"Shut up! That's impossible. Don't say such things in the future, "someone immediately shouted in anger.
Jianchen listened to their conversation as he ate. From their conversation, Jianchen learned more information. The most important information was that the war between the alliance of four kingdoms and the Kingdom of Gesun would still take two to three years. After all, the alliance of four kingdoms was planning to wipe out the Kingdom of Gesun in one fell swoop. Therefore, the preparation work and the transportation of various war resources before the war had to be done. Including the mobilization of the army, it would take a long time.
After the meal, Jian Chen directly returned to the room he had booked to rest. Coincidentally, the generals were also spending the night in this inn. They did not book the entire inn. Instead, they stayed in the same room as regular customers.
At night, Jianchen sat cross-legged on his bed for the whole night. Below the window of his room, he could see the dozen or so carriages equipped with large iron boxes. Soldiers were guarding the carriages all night, looking very cautious.
Now, Jianchen was sure that the large iron boxes were filled with Magic Cores. Now that the Blue Wind Kingdom and the Kingdom of Gesun were about to go to war, the Magic Crystal Cannons would definitely be the main firepower. The large number of Magic Cores in front of him was probably transported to the border to supply the Magic Crystal Cannons.
The next morning, after a simple breakfast, they bought a large amount of dry rations and some water from the inn. Then, with a group of armored soldiers escorting a dozen large carriages, they left Lanfeng City in a grandiose manner.
Not long after they left, Jianchen also left the inn. He rode on his Class 2 Magic Beast and followed them from afar. He would never allow such a large number of Magic Cores to be transported to the border of the Blue Wind Kingdom to attack the Kingdom of Gesun.
