Taking a deep breath, Qi Yue looked at the Zodiac warriors in front of him. His gaze softened, and the sharpness from before disappeared. "Now, everyone, listen to my orders. Return to your tents and rest. I will immediately contact the Yan Huang military. After a while, I will send you back to your families. I will give each of you three days. When you go back, reunite with your families. Three days later, we will gather here. If anyone changes their mind and doesn't want to come back. Don't worry, I won't blame you. After all, everyone has their own families, and I won't ask anything of you. Alright, now get ready. Three days of rest. Adjust your mood. "
"No, Boss, we won't leave," the Zodiac warriors who reacted quickly immediately shouted after hearing Qi Yue's words. They were all afraid that Qi Yue would leave them behind, so they only led the Zodiac warriors to fight.
Looking at their suspicious expressions, Qi Yue's face darkened. "This is an order. Return to your tents immediately. Think about it. If I wanted to leave you behind, would I still say what I just said? Alright, carry out the order. Warriors of the Zodiac Squad. Captains, bid farewell to your team members. "After saying this, Qi Yue turned around and returned to the villa.
The 12 Zodiac warriors, Shang Bing, and the other women merged with the 12 Zodiac Squad, and said their goodbyes reluctantly. They all agreed with Qi Yue's decision. At the same time, they were proud that no one from their respective squads suggested leaving the Zodiac Army.
Hummer's reaction was the most direct. He walked over to his own Zodiac Squad and laughed. He laughed heartily. "Good, brothers. You're all good. If any of you had decided to leave just now, although I wouldn't have stopped you, I would have given you a beating. Luckily, none of my brothers are cowards. Let's not talk about anything else. Didn't Boss say it just now? If one of you dies, then. He will try to be the first. I am your captain, and also your big brother. If anyone in our squad is in danger, then I will be the first. It's definitely me, Changjie. I will use my own body to protect you. You are all my best brothers. "After saying this, Changjie laughed heartily. His heroic spirit had also ignited the flame in the hearts of every Zodiac warrior. For a moment, the entire courtyard. There were frantic shouts everywhere.
After returning to his room, Qi Yue stood by the window and looked at the jubilant Zodiac warriors outside. Two streams of tears flowed down from his eyes. Those were not tears of sorrow, but tears of gratitude. Perhaps it was easy to not be afraid of death. However … How many people could cheer in the face of the impending battle of death? This was no longer as simple as facing death with equanimity. He looked at his companions. Qi Yue's heart was filled with pride. These were the true descendants of Yan and Huang! Every one of them is a hero.
Qi Yue picked up the phone and dialed General Ji's number. "Uncle, I'm Qi Yue."
"Qi Yue, I've heard about the battle on your side. However, because the energy fluctuations over there were too strong, the Yan Huang people did not see the final result. How is it? What's the situation? "Ji Zhangming asked anxiously.
A bitter smile appeared on Qi Yue's face as he replied, "Uncle, the problem has been temporarily resolved. As for the future, don't worry. As long as I am alive, I will not let anyone invade our homeland. Now, I would like to ask you for a favor. I need a plane to send the Zodiac warriors home. Let them reunite with their families for a few days. "
Ji Zhangming said doubtfully, "It's not a good idea to let them go home at this time. Are you not preparing to go to the west? Or has the situation there been resolved? "
Qi Yue sighed. "Right now, we can't care about the situation in the west. In the near future, Yan Huang will face an even greater crisis. Uncle, I will tell you in detail later. I'm letting my brothers go home just to let them reunite with each other's families before the final battle. Can you please help me? "
Ji Zhangming did not say anything more and agreed to Qi Yue's request. To the Yanhuang Republic, Qi Yue's importance was now equal to that of the president. His contributions to the country could no longer be described as meritorious. Even a high-ranking military official like General Ji Zhangming knew that his status was not as high as Qi Yue's. The president had already ordered that as long as it was Qi Yue's request, the Yanhuang Republic would support it unconditionally.
At this time, a group of guests arrived at the Dragon Field Courtyard. There were more than a hundred guests. When they appeared in the courtyard's garden, the jubilant members of the Zodiac team quietened down. Each of them had different emotions in their eyes. This was because most of the people who appeared were their relatives and elders. Yes, the people from the four major families had arrived.
Previously, when Qi Yue replaced the four great families and the people of the Yan Huang Soul Sect against Chi You, they did not go far. They just watched from afar. Like the people of the Yan Huang Soul Sect, they did not know how the battle would end. However, after the violent explosion of energy, there was no more sound. They knew that the battle was definitely over. Under the Shen family head's suggestion, they decided to come to the Dragon Field Courtyard to try their luck and see if they could see Qi Yue and their clansmen. Back then, the youths from the Four Great Clans that came to the Dragon Realm Courtyard were only a portion of the younger generation of their respective clans. But in order to learn more from the Zodiac warriors, they sent the elites of the major families! At that time, the Four Great Clans had also thought that Qi Yue wanted to use their power. However, with the strength of the Zodiac warriors, they could imagine what would happen to them if they refused. After careful discussion, they decided to send someone over. At that time, they had already thought that even if only half of them could come back alive, as long as they could learn some combat skills from the Zodiac warriors.
They would also make great contributions to their respective clans. The Four Great Clans were already deeply rooted in Yan Huang. Sending 30 youths from each clan was not too much of a burden. Hence, the current Twelve Zodiac Team was formed.
This time, Chi You suddenly appeared in the east. After General Ji's communication, the Four Great Clans immediately set out. Although they each had their own selfish motives, they were after all a part of Yan Huang. The interests of Yan Huang were their interests. The Four Great Clans had a long history, and the number one creed of each clan was to protect Yan Huang. No matter how other aspects changed, this had never changed. Hence. Once they received General Ji's request, they immediately sent out the elites of their clans.
This time, the Four Great Clans had come. They were all their most elite forces. There were many of them, and most of them were between 35 to 60 years old. They were led by the family heads of the Four Great Clans. Hence, these people were the elders of the Twelve Zodiac Team. Chi You's strength was unimaginable to the Four Great Clans. At the start. They had wanted to destroy Chi You head-on, but after witnessing Chi You's strength and paying a certain price, they knew that Chi You wasn't someone they could defeat. They did what they could. He could only stall Chiyou and wait for the arrival of the Zodiac Guardian God. Fortunately, Chi You was very interested in the humans of this era and was not in a hurry to destroy them, so the losses of the Four Great Clans were not too great.
The members of the Zodiac Squad suddenly saw their loved ones. No matter how much they had been tempered by Qi Yue, they were still shocked to see their loved ones. For a moment, they were filled with excitement because their current status was different from before. Therefore … They all stood there, looking at their relatives, but none of them came forward to greet them.
Standing in front of the window of his room, Qi Yue could not help but smile as he watched the people from the Four Great Families arrive. "I knew they would come. I didn't expect them to come so quickly. "He floated up and directly flew out of the window to meet the experts of the Four Great Families. Qi Yue knew that if he didn't give the order, the members of the Zodiac Squad wouldn't take the initiative to step forward, even if they were facing their relatives.
"Patriarchs, long time no see." The Patriarchs of the Four Great Families felt their eyes light up. Qi Yue, who was shining with a faint green light, had already appeared in front of them. Compared to before, the changes in Qi Yue's body were extremely obvious. Not only in terms of height and physique, but more importantly, Qi Yue's temperament. In the past, Qi Yue was like an unsheathed sharp blade to them, ready to launch a powerful attack at any time. However, the current Qi Yue was nothing in their eyes. It felt as if he was no different from an ordinary person, but his eyes were unusually clear, as if he could see through everything in their hearts. The appearance of Qi Yue also caused a drastic change in the members of the Zodiac Squad. The moment he appeared, all the members of the Zodiac Squad straightened their bodies at the same time and lined up neatly according to the twelve squads they belonged to. Their eyes were completely focused on Qi Yue.
Shen Zhuo, Luo Zhangxin, Xu Zhiyuan, and Zhou Tianlu. The four Patriarchs who represented the four major clans stepped forward at the same time and bowed to Qi Yue. Although the four great families were unwilling to acknowledge the dominant position of the Zodiac Guardian God. However, they also knew that the four major families were no longer a match for the Zodiac warriors who had grown up. Although they did not learn any information about the Zodiac Army from the members of the Zodiac Squad, they could imagine how powerful Qi Yue and his Zodiac Warriors were based on the progress of their own clansmen.
"Seniors, there's no need to stand on ceremony. Please come inside. Since you're a member of the zodiac, shouldn't you take the initiative to greet your relatives? Make yourself at home. " After saying this, Qi Yue gestured to the four Patriarchs and led them inside. Under his command, the members of the Zodiac Squad finally let go of their shackles and went to reunite with their loved ones.
Qi Yue returned to the villa with the four Patriarchs and the twelve Zodiac Guardian God warriors. Xu Zhiyuan, the Patriarch of the Xu Family, looked at his grandson with a strange expression on his face. The emotions of the other three Patriarchs also seemed to be a little unstable. None of this escaped Qi Yue's mental strength. Obviously, they had a purpose for coming to find him this time.
When they came to the hall of the villa, everyone took their seats. Qi Yue said with a smile, "Seniors, this time, it was thanks to you that you were able to resist Chiyou's attack and prevent him from attacking the capital. I thank you in advance. "
Shen Zhuo said calmly, "This is what we should do. We are also the Guardians of the East! It's just that this time, our losses are indeed a little too great. A large number of talents of the four great families have lost their lives in the battle with that monster. This time, more than two-thirds of the people we brought with us have died! "Speaking up to this point, his expression obviously became a lot more gloomy, and his eyes were slightly red.
At the side, the Luo Family Patriarch, Luo Changxin, suddenly exclaimed, "Mr. Qi, what did you say just now? That monster is Chiyou? Could it be the legendary … "
Qi Yue nodded and said, "Yes, he is the legendary Demon God Chiyou, the Chiyou who fought with our human ancestor, Huang Emperor. Although I'm not too sure how he could really come to this world, I can completely confirm his identity. The four great families have suffered heavy losses this time, but by being able to hold Chiyou back, you have already made the greatest contribution to the protection of Yan Huang. "
The four Patriarchs looked at each other and were shocked at the same time. The shock that Chiyou brought to them was too great. That was a power that could not be stopped at all. If not for the fact that Chiyou himself did not seem to be in a hurry to advance, perhaps they would have all died. At this time, when Qi Yue told them about Chiyou's identity, they were not only surprised by this, but also by the strength of the Zodiac warriors. From the time they left to the end of the battle, it had not been a long time. And since Qi Yue could sit here and talk to them, it was obvious that he had defeated Chiyou.
Who was that? An Ancient Demon God! And Qi Yue and the rest did not seem to have expended much energy to destroy the Ancient Demon God. How much power was needed to achieve this? In an instant, the four Patriarchs could not help but re-evaluate the strength of Qi Yue and the Zodiac Guardian God warriors.
Shen Zhuo hesitated for a while before saying, "Mr. Qi, we have come this time because we haven't seen you for a long time and wanted to see you. At the same time, we also have a request, and we hope that you can agree to it. " Strength represented everything. Therefore, although Qi Yue was much younger than them, Shen Zhuo still used honorifics subconsciously.
Qi Yue thought to himself, Here it comes. On the surface, he said without batting an eyelid, "If Patriarch Shen has something to say, just say it. If I can do it, I will definitely do my best to help you. " This time, the four great clans did not cherish their own strength to fight against Chiyou, which made Qi Yue's impression of them a lot better than before.
Shen Zhuo said, "It's like this. Right now, our four great clans have suffered a lot of damage, and our elites of the younger generation are all here with you. You see, can you let them go back with us? Although our original agreement was five years, but with the strength of you and the Zodiac Guardian God warriors, it seems that we do not lack their strength. However, our four great clans urgently need them to return. "
Qi Yue smiled slightly, "So it's like this! There's nothing wrong with this. However, I want to ask the four Seniors first, do you understand the current situation of the world? Don't you think it's strange? Why hasn't the sun appeared for a long time? "
Zhou Tianlu frowned, "We have already heard about it. It seems to be caused by the special astronomical phenomenon of the Nine Star Alignment. The explanation given by the country is that it will still take a period of time for this kind of astronomical phenomenon to pass. Isn't it? "
Qi Yue said, "In a sense, it is like this. However, I'm afraid you still do not understand what the Nine Star Alignment has truly brought. You have also seen it, Chiyou suddenly appeared. He is the crisis that the Nine Star Alignment has brought to our East. However, this is not all. Right now, it is in the West. The legendary Hell and Underworld have descended at the same time. The Burning Hell Legion's three million strong army is wreaking havoc in the West, and I'm afraid it won't take long. After they conquer the West, they will develop towards our East. "
Although Qi Yue said it very calmly, when these words came out, the four Patriarchs' expressions changed greatly. Shen Zhuo was the first to speak, "No, this is impossible. There is no Hell or Underworld in this world. "
Qi Yue looked at him with a burning gaze, saying, "If you really didn't see it. Do you believe that there is a Kirin in this world? However, the truth is in front of you. If you don't believe it. Feel free to ask the youths of your respective clans. We just had a great battle with them in the West, and rushed back to deal with Chiyou. Otherwise, there would be no need for the four great clans to resist Chiyou's attack. "
The four Patriarchs looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Qi Yue continued, "In the West, there are also Protectors, and their strength is not ordinary. They are the Vatican and the Greek Protectors. They are now united to fight against the dark forces of the Underworld and Hell. However, I'm afraid they can't resist for too long. We, the East. Will face a great crisis at any time. In this kind of situation, what we need to do is to think of ways to improve our strength, and be ready to deal with the enemy at any time. Those who are not of our race will certainly have different intentions. This is not a battle between the various countries of our Earth. It is a direct violation of our race. If we can't unite when the enemy comes, then the result is obvious. The strength of your four great clans has been damaged this time, and at the same time you have seen the strength of our Twelve Zodiac Squad. I can understand your feelings if you want them to go back. However. Since the original five year agreement has been established, it cannot be violated. Patriarchs, let's not beat around the bush. Before you came, I have already asked your clansmen, who are the warriors of our Twelve Zodiac Squad. If they are willing to leave, I will not stop them. However, they have already made up their minds. For the sake of Earth, for the sake of Yan Huang, they will stay by my side and fight with me. I have already asked the military to send people over. In a while, they will be sent back to their respective clans to reunite with their families for three days. After that, they will return to fight with me. Let's do it this way. I know your difficulties as well. Within three days, if you can convince them to stay in your respective clans, I will not stop you. Otherwise, please do not make the same request for the next five years. I dare not promise anything else, but as long as I am alive, I will do my best to ensure their safety. When all the danger is over, it will be time for them to return to their respective clans. At that time, even if only one of your clans survives, the benefits to your respective clans will be unimaginable. "
Qi Yue did not beat around the bush, because he did not want to waste any more time. Everything depended on the four great clans themselves. At the same time, it also depended on the determination of the Zodiac warriors themselves.
Shen Zhuo nodded and said, "Mr Qi, thank you for telling us this. Our four great clans are not people who do not know the severity of the situation. If what you said is true, I, Shen Zhuo, am willing to lay down my old bones and accompany you to fight at the frontlines. As long as the enemy comes, our Shen family will definitely not sit idly by. "
Hearing Shen Zhuo's words, the other three clan leaders nodded in agreement.
Qi Yue stood up and said, "The four great clans do not need to do anything else. I only hope that you can raise your strength as much as possible. Right now, I cannot help you with anything. Time is of the essence, so please return to your respective clans with your clansmen. If we cannot withstand the enemy's attack, then you will be Yan Huang's last line of defense. "
Xu Zhiyuan, who had not spoken all this while, suddenly spoke. "Qi Yue, are the enemies you speak of really so strong? Could it be that our modern weapons are useless against them? "
Qi Yue sighed and said, "You can say that. Although it cannot be said that modern weapons are completely useless. But the effect is pitifully small. For super experts like the Devil King of Hell, Satan, and the Underworld King of the Underworld, even if you throw 10 nuclear bombs over, it will not have any effect. Moreover, the previous asteroid incident has already consumed a large number of nuclear weapons of the various countries on Earth. "
Xu Zhiyuan nodded and turned his gaze to Xu Dong at the side. "Dong Dong, you go back with me too."
Xu Dong was taken aback and said, "Grandfather, I will forget about it. I will still stay. Moreover, I still need to continue cultivating. "
Xu Zhiyuan frowned slightly and said, "No, you have to go back with me. After three days, you can return with the others. "
Xu Dong turned his gaze to Qi Yue.
There was a questioning light in his eyes. Qi Yue nodded and said, "Go back. Not only you, but the others should also go home. Three days. Perhaps to us, these are the last three days of our lives. Three days later. Our fate no longer belongs to us. In these three days, everyone should try to reunite with their families as much as possible. "
At this moment, a loud rumble suddenly came from outside. Without needing to look, Qi Yue's spirit power already told him what was coming. He thought to himself. The military is really efficient, they are already here. "Let's go, everyone, let's go out."
When the four family heads followed behind Qi Yue and the twelve Zodiac Guardian God Warriors out of the villa, they were completely shocked by the scene in front of them. A total of 20 armed helicopters appeared in the sky above the Dragon Field Courtyard with the rumbling of their engines. A long rope fell from the leading helicopter. A middle-aged man with a military rank of 23 quickly slid down from the helicopter and arrived in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
"Excuse me, who is Mr. Qi Yue?" The middle-aged colonel asked politely.
Qi Yue took a few steps forward and said, "I am." He was still some distance away from the officer, but his voice was unusually clear to the officer's ears.
The officer turned to look at Qi Yue. But when he saw Qi Yue for the first time, his eyes clearly showed a bit of surprise. But quickly returned to normal, his body instantly straightened up, and he gave a standard military salute to Qi Yue. "Hello, General Qi. Commander Mao Yu of the 38th Division, reporting for duty. "
"General?" Qi Yue frowned, thinking to himself, did I hear wrong? When did I become General?
Mao Yu said respectfully, "Yes, you are General. This is the name that the president just gave you. According to the president's direct order. You have been promoted to General as an exception. The conferring ceremony will be held after. General Qi, please give the order. "
Qi Yue couldn't help but feel a bit amused. He was a young man in his twenties, yet he was directly promoted to General. The president of the Yellow Emperor was really generous! Now he was at the same level as his father-in-law General Ji. Although to him, these titles didn't mean much. However, the importance of the country still made him feel warm in his heart. He understood that the country also knew that he didn't lack anything. He didn't know where to start even if they wanted to reward him, so they could only give him a title.
"Alright, Leader Mao, my order is for you to send them to the location they have designated. After three days, bring them back here. "
"Yes, Chief." Mao Yu replied loudly.
At this time, hundreds of soldiers had already disembarked from the armed helicopters, neatly lined up behind Mao Yu.
The four family heads beside Qi Yue were already stunned, unable to react even after they had boarded the armed helicopters with their clansmen.
Xu Dong sat beside Xu Zhiyuan and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, why do you have to let me go back with you? Did something happen in the family? "
Xu Zhiyuan suddenly laughed, "It's nothing, nothing happened in the family. Dong Dong! You have to work hard with Qi Yue in the future. Don't embarrass the Xu family. Hahahaha. "
Looking at his grandfather's inexplicable laughter, Xu Dong couldn't help but scratch his head in confusion, but out of respect, he didn't ask any more questions.
Xu Zhiyuan laughed, "You don't know that our Xu family is only at the middle level among the four major families. But now it's different. The other three major families all have to look at us differently. And the reason is because of you. As one of the Zodiac Guardian Warriors, you have brought great honor to the Xu family. This time, I only want you to go back with me for one thing. I have already decided that after this Nine Star Alignment is over, you will be the new family head of the Xu family. I'm old, and it's time for me to rest. It's not a good thing to hold on to power all the time. "
"Huh? Grandpa, you want me to be the family head? Did I hear that right? I still have father, uncles, and uncles above me. Will they all agree? This doesn't seem to be in line with the family rules! "
Xu Zhiyuan snorted and said, "Family rules? The family head has the right to change some of the family rules. Strength is the most important thing. In our Xu family, I'm afraid that even I am no longer a match for you. If we want our Xu family to develop better and become stronger, we need a strong leader. And you fit the bill. Although you used to be a little playful, you are now qualified to be the family head. You don't need to say anything more. Don't worry, no one in the family will object. "
Xu Dong frowned and said, "But Grandpa, I don't want to be the family head! If that's the case, what about my freedom in the future? "
Xu Zhiyuan snorted and said, "You are already the family head. What freedom do you still want? Is there anyone who can control you? As the family head, you have the power to decide life and death within the family, and you can allocate all the resources within the family. At that time, no one will stop you from doing whatever you want. Don't you understand? Our family's business and some other affairs are handled by other people. The family head is the one with the most leisure time. "
In the past, Xu Dong was not favored in the Xu family, mainly because he did not work hard. At least in the eyes of the other members of the Xu family. But now, he was completely different. He was one of the Zodiac Guardian Warriors. In the battle at Tianxiang Mountain, he had fully displayed his great strength. Although Xu Zhiyuan only found out that the Zodiac Tiger Warrior was his grandson after a long time, the news that the Xu family received from the country told them how important the Zodiac Tiger Warriors were in Yan Huang now. This could be seen from the fact that Qi Yue had become a general of the country. What rank was a general? There were a total of seven military regions in Yan Huang, and among the seven, only three of the military regions had commanders and political commissars who were generals. The rest were only lieutenant generals. Such a rank was enough to reach the central position. Xu Zhiyuan was definitely a scheming person. He naturally understood that for a family to continue to develop, they had to have a good relationship with the country. Although Xu Dong's strength was an important reason for him to be chosen as the family head, at the same time, it was also because he was one of the Zodiac Guardian Warriors. The Zodiac Guardian Warriors had an irreplaceable position in Yan Huang. As long as Xu Dong was around, the Zodiac Guardian Warriors would not sit idly by if the Xu family encountered any problems in the future. At least, that was what Xu Zhiyuan thought.
