At this moment, a middle-aged man in a green robe flew out of the city below. He was also a Celestial State cultivator. He bowed to Liu Ming and said,
"You must be the new patriarch of the Qing Family, Liu Ming. It must have been hard for you to come all the way!"
"May I ask who you are?" Liu Ming stopped and asked with a flash in his eyes.
Qing Fang and the rest of the Qing Family cultivators also stopped.
"Hehe, I am Liu Junyan. Under the order of the patriarch, I am here to wait for you. Please follow me. I have prepared a place for you to rest." The middle-aged man in a green robe said with a slight smile and landed on the city below.
Liu Ming's eyes moved, and then he led the Qing Family to follow.
There were many buildings in Yourong City. It seemed that they were built recently. It was not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
The middle-aged man in a green robe brought Liu Ming and others to an area in the east of the city. There were more than a dozen gray pavilions here. Although they didn't look good, they were enough to accommodate more than 100 people of the Qing Family.
"Everyone of the Qing Family can rest here. The conditions are a bit simple, please don't mind." The middle-aged man in a green robe said slightly apologetically.
"You don't have to be so polite. We didn't come here to enjoy. How is the situation at the front line at the moment?" Liu Ming chuckled, then he asked with a serious look.
When he entered the city just now, he looked at the enemy camp in the distance. The opposite camp was shrouded by a black gas. Obviously, someone used a secret technique to hide it.
"At present, there is only a small scale contact. The other party doesn't seem to be preparing to attack. We are still well prepared, so it is still safe. "The middle-aged man in a green robe saw Liu Ming asked about the war, and his face became solemn.
Liu Ming heard this and nodded slowly.
"So far, many patriarchs of aristocratic families have rushed here. At this moment, they are all discussing in the hall. If Patriarch Liu is free, why don't you go and meet them?" The middle-aged man in a green robe said again.
"Very good." Liu Ming nodded at the moment, then he ordered Qing Fang to arrange the rest of the people to rest here. Then he and the middle-aged man walked side by side toward a hall in the center of the city.
"I wonder which aristocratic families have arrived in the city?" Liu Ming asked casually as he walked.
"At present, all the large aristocratic families in the Hidden Prefecture have basically arrived. Of the other prefectures and counties, only a few families from the Yongzhou and Yu Prefecture arrived yesterday," the green-robed middle-aged man said.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and he nodded.
According to the words of the green-robed middle-aged man, the cultivators gathered in Gloomy Blaze City at this moment only had the strength of a province at most. Even if the army sent by the Liu Clan was added in, their strength was still inferior to the rebel army of the three provinces.
However, at this moment, the clans of the nearby provinces were all rushing to Yourong City in an unending stream. Facing such a large rebellion, it was impossible for the central dynasty to sit idly by. As long as they could endure for a period of time, they believed that the situation would change greatly.
As Liu Ming thought of this, he felt a little more relaxed.
"I wonder which senior of the Liu Clan is in charge of Yourong City at this moment?" He suddenly thought of something and turned to ask the green-robed middle-aged man.
"After the rebellion of the Li, Chi, and Kuo Prefectures, the Demon King was very angry. In order to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, the patriarch of the Liu Clan is personally in charge of Yourong City. In addition, there is also a Profound Understanding ancestor of our clan in the city. You will be able to meet him later, Liu. "The green-robed middle-aged man said with a chuckle.
"Since the patriarch of the Liu Clan is personally in charge, that's great. With the ability of your patriarch, a mere rebellion should be quickly quelled." A flash of surprise appeared in Liu Ming's eyes, and then he said with a laugh.
The two chatted and soon arrived outside the hall in the center of the city. Walking into the hall, they turned a few corners, and the two came to a bright hall.
The hall was very spacious, and there were dozens of wide chairs in the hall, lined up on both sides of the hall. At this moment, there were twenty to thirty people sitting on these chairs.
The people present were all patriarchs of the major clans, and most of them were cultivators in the late stage of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. At this moment, groups of three to five were gathered in the hall, talking in low voices.
At the end of the hall was a slightly higher seat, which was obviously the main seat, but at this moment, there was no one sitting on it.
As soon as Liu Ming and the green-robed middle-aged man stepped into the hall, dozens of gazes immediately looked over.
"Hey, isn't this Liu? Fellow Daoist has finally arrived. "A burly man with a rough appearance stood up and strode over.
"Fellow Lei." Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and a trace of a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to the burly man.
This burly man was the patriarch of the Lei Clan, Lei Ge.
The Lei Clan and the Qing Clan often interacted with each other. In the past hundred years, Liu Ming had also met this person a few times, and their relationship could be considered to be quite good.
"Come, come, Liu. You usually stay in your room, so today is a good opportunity for me to introduce you to a few good friends." The burly man laughed, and without saying anything, he pulled Liu Ming inside.
A bitter smile appeared on Liu Ming's face, as if he couldn't stand the enthusiasm of this person. He nodded to the green-robed middle-aged man apologetically, and then followed after the burly man.
When Liu Ming saw this, a trace of light flashed in his eyes, but his face was full of smiles as he walked towards a group of people.
He followed Lei Ge to a small circle inside, and found a seat to sit down, as he looked at the people around him.
In this small circle, other than him and Lei Ge, there were three other people.
One of them was a green-haired young woman in a green robe. She looked to be in her thirties, and her appearance was quite beautiful, but her expression was cold. When she saw Liu Ming come over, she only glanced at him, and didn't have the slightest intention of greeting him, giving off a feeling that she was a thousand miles away.
The other was a white-haired old man, and there was an abnormal flush on his cheeks, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
The white-haired old man had a kind look on his face, and nodded slightly to Liu Ming.
The last one was an eight or nine-year-old girl, with red lips and white teeth. She wore a loose blood-red robe, and looked somewhat out of place.
"Haha, everyone, let me introduce you. This is the person I mentioned to everyone before, the patriarch of the Tuo Zang Mountain Range's famous Qing Clan, Liu Ming, Liu." Lei Ge introduced Liu Ming to the others.
The expressions of the three changed slightly when they heard this.
In recent years, the Qing Clan could indeed be said to be illustrious in Zang Zhou. In terms of power, it could be counted as one of the top clans in Zang Zhou. And the new patriarch, Liu Ming, had always been mysterious, and basically didn't appear in the eyes of outsiders, which made him even more popular.
"So you are Liu Ming, Liu, nice to meet you." The white-haired old man cupped his fists and bowed, and said.
The green-haired young woman and the red-robed girl couldn't help but look at Liu Ming a few more times.
"These three are also the patriarchs of some famous clans in Zang Zhou. They are Fairy Ao, Fellow Ge, and Fellow Lan." Lei Ge introduced the green-haired young woman, the white-haired old man, and the red-robed girl respectively.
"Ah, so it's Patriarch Ao, Patriarch Ge, and Patriarch Lan. Nice to meet you!"
Liu Ming slightly cupped his fists. Although Lei Ge didn't say these people's names, he knew their surnames, and he was able to determine their identity and background.
The Ao Clan, the Ge Clan, and the Lan Clan were also famous clans in Zang Zhou. Although they couldn't compare to the Qing Clan or the Lei Clan, their power was not small.
Especially the Lan Clan that the red-robed girl belonged to, which was famous for alchemy. If he guessed correctly, this red-robed girl was the famous alchemy master in Zang Zhou, Lan Yinggu. Liu Ming had heard rumors about her. It was said that because she accidentally ate an ancient alchemy pill, it caused her body to mutate, and she turned into a young girl.
After introducing each other's names, the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
"Alright, Fellow Lei, according to what you said before, after gathering the five people, we can start discussing the alliance. Can we start now?" The green-haired young woman said coldly.
Hearing this, Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face.
"Haha, Fairy Ao, don't be anxious. Liu has just arrived, I still have to explain the situation to him." Legg chuckled. He waved his hand lightly, and a purple light emitted from his hand, turning into a purple light screen that enveloped them.
"Liu, it's like this. In this battle, although you and I are all Heavenly Phenomenon cultivators, the battle is dangerous, and no one can be sure what will happen. Therefore, I want to form an alliance with you during the battle. I wonder if Liu is interested in joining? "Legg looked at Liu Ming and asked.
Hearing this, a trace of thought flashed across Liu Ming's face, and he didn't answer immediately.
"By the way, many of the clans here have established their own small circles. I'm sure Liu naturally understands the meaning." Legg saw that Liu Ming didn't speak, so he added.
Liu Ming pondered for a moment, and then said,
"Since it's Fellow Lei's invitation, I'm naturally willing to join. However, I came later than all of you. How is the situation in Yourong City? To be honest, although I received the transfer order from the Central Dynasty and the Liu Clan, I don't know the specific situation. "
"There's no need for Liu to say anything about this. I will naturally share the information I've gathered with you," Legg said immediately.
Hearing this, the green-haired young woman and the others also showed a focused look.
"According to my information, the cultivators of the Li, Chi, and Kuo Prefectures suddenly decided to betray the Central Dynasty for some reason. All the clans in the three prefectures have now joined together and called themselves the Great Shuo Dynasty. "Legg said slowly.
The green-haired young woman and the others were shocked when they heard this.
"Great Shuo …" Mo Tian's voice sounded in Liu Ming's mind, and the tone seemed to be a little mocking.
Liu Ming's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't ask Mo Tian.
"They've actually called themselves a dynasty. It looks like the cultivators of the three prefectures are really going to completely rebel against the Central Dynasty." The red-robed girl said with a deep tone.
"No one knows what exactly happened in the three prefectures, but the three prefectures are already a piece of iron. Since the start of the rebellion, my Lei Clan has tried to send people to infiltrate the Crimson Prefecture many times because it's close to the Chi Prefecture, but it was all in vain. We even lost many people." Legg sighed and said.
"Fellow Lei, do you know how many cultivators have gathered in the Great Shuo Dynasty? Have they all moved to the stronghold outside Yourong City?" Liu Ming's eyes flashed as he asked.
