Listening to him, Lu An was bewildered!
Let him become the City Master of the Drifting Moon City?
Lu An had never thought that Si Mian would say something like that. Moreover, Si Mian's position in the Drifting Moon Clan was second only to Si Xing. His words carried a lot of weight. If he could say something like that, he wouldn't just shoot his mouth off.
Lu An had forced himself to calm down for a long time. He asked skeptically, "Isn't the Drifting Moon Clan doing well? The Outré Prefecture is a good place to earn money. Why don't you do it? "
"It's not that we don't want to do it. We let you do it." Si Mian smiled. "I know it's sudden. Hegemon, you don't need to give us an answer now. You can go back to the Ice and Fire Union and discuss with the others."
When Lu An heard this, he was stunned again. Liu Yi was clearly more thoughtful than him. After thinking about it for a while, he nodded lightly. Liu Yi was indeed much smarter than him when it came to such matters. He said, "Alright, no matter what, this junior would like to thank the Flowing Moon Clan for their kind intentions."

Ice and Fire City, Eight Ancient Continents
When Lu An came back, he saw Yao, Beauty Yang, and Liu Yi sitting together. The three women weren't interested in the result of the battle. When Lu An told them about his conversation with Si Mian, the three women were surprised.
"What does the Drifting Moon Clan mean?" Lu An sat down, asking bewilderedly.
The three women were thinking. However, Yao wasn't good at scheming, just like Lu An. Ten breaths later, Beauty Yang and Liu Yi lifted their heads, looking at Lu An.
"It's hard to predict." Beauty Yang's voice was cold. "Anyway, we don't know much about the Drifting Moon Clan. We don't know if they have anything to do with other things. We can only guess. The biggest possibility is... the Drifting Moon Clan wants to flatter you. "
Flatter you?
Lu An was bewildered. At this moment, Liu Yi also opened her mouth, nodding. "I agree with you, sister. In fact, even if the Drifting Moon Clan has something to do with the Life and Death Union, they won't dare to shift the blame to us. Thus, the biggest possibility is that they want to flatter you. "
"There's no need to talk about our relationship with the Heavenly Tiger Clan, but everyone knows that you're close with Prince Qi. As for your relationship with the Fire Lion Tribe, although they don't know about your relationship with Red, Red is the Lion King's daughter after all. It's not a secret that she's in the Ice and Fire Alliance, so your relationship with her can't be bad, "Liu Yi explained." Temi people are humans, so their relationship with their tribe is naturally very strong. Needless to say, Sengoku was one of them. In the entire Life and Death Alliance, the Flowing Moon Clan is the only clan that doesn't have a special relationship with us. Moreover, we rarely communicate with them, so they seem to be very marginalized. "
"That's right." Yang Meiren nodded lightly and said, "The Dripping Moon Clan knows that there is a huge gap between their strength and the other clans in the Life and Death Alliance. In order to stabilize their position in the Life and Death Alliance, they must have a special interest or relationship with us. I'm afraid that it was their decision to offer Dripping Moon City. It's just that their generosity is rather surprising. "
Lu An nodded. No matter how stupid he was, he still knew how important a place in one of the six cities in Outré Province was. Back in the day, the other three branches of the Dripping Moon Clan had all coveted this place. Even a first-rate clan with a Class Nine Mystical Beast relied heavily on the resources of Outré Province. Even if it was just one city, the benefits it could bring might not be worse than all the resources and territories of a sect.
"If we have such a city as the Ice and Fire Alliance's supply, it will solve all the problems of the Ice and Fire Alliance's development, and it will be a permanent solution." Liu Yi thought about it and said seriously, "However, this will also cause a lot of damage to the Dripping Moon Clan. Although the Dripping Moon Clan's body structure is very special and they don't rely as much on resources as the other clans, Dripping Moon City is still their headquarters. It's impossible to say that it's not important."
"..." Lu An took a deep breath and said, "So, the Dripping Moon Clan is giving us the most valuable thing in order to stabilize their position in the Life and Death Alliance?"
"That's right." Liu Yi nodded and said, "Although it seems ridiculous, we're betting on the future. Once you succeed, the Dripping Moon Clan will have the same status as the Fire Lion and Sky Tiger. They will all have the status of an elder. This is absolutely unimaginable for the Dripping Moon Clan of the past. "
"So … What do you think?" Lu An looked at the three girls and asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Yao Yao did not speak and looked at Beauty Yang and Liu Yi. Liu Yi also turned to look at Beauty Yang. Beauty Yang was slightly startled and said, "This matter still needs more time to think about, but the overall decision should be to accept it. It's just that it's the way to accept it. We're humans. If we rashly enter Outré Province, we'll definitely be hated by all the Mystical Beast Clans, and it might even turn into a conflict. Even if we want to take over the resources of Dripping Moon City, it's best to let the Dripping Moon Clan manage the city and directly give the resources to us. "
Lu An was startled and asked, "Let them work for us?"
"Yes, my thoughts are the same as big sis." Liu Yi nodded and said, "Although it seems unfair to the Dripping Moon Clan, not only do they have to give us the resources, but they also have to work for us. But perhaps … this is the true intention of the Dripping Moon Clan."
Lu An was stunned and looked at Liu Yi in astonishment.
"Simply giving up the city is a one-time deal that will be forgotten over time. However, if they work for us, we have to always remember their kindness." Liu Yi said, "Si Xing clearly knows that we can't manage Dripping Moon City personally, but he still said that he would give the city to us. This is to let us take the initiative to ask them to work for us. This way, we'll owe them even more favors."
"…"
Lu An felt a headache coming on when he heard this. As expected, he was not suited for scheming. It felt more tiring than fighting a life and death battle.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. If you need me to step in, just let me know." Lu An said, "By the way, is there any news about Gongye Qingshan?"
Liu Yi shook her head and said, "Not yet …"
Before Liu Yi could finish her sentence, a figure suddenly flew in from outside and arrived in the air outside the tall building. He quickly said, "Alliance Master, the lake has sent back information!"
The four people in the house were shocked when they heard this. Liu Yi immediately said, "Speak!"
The person quickly entered the house and said respectfully, "Just a moment ago, a Teleportation Formation appeared on the lake. A woman walked out of it and entered the lake. Her appearance is at least 70% similar to the portrait. We can basically confirm that she's the person we're looking for!"
As soon as this was said, Lu An's eyes immediately turned cold!
"Are there other people with her?" Beauty Yang asked quickly.
"Yes." The person immediately nodded and said, "There are also two middle-aged men, but they're inside the formation around the lake. We can't confirm their strength, but there's a high probability that they're Level Eight Heavenly Masters."
Lu An pondered when he heard this. According to the previous information, there were a total of ten people visible on the lake's surface. There was a high probability that they were Level Eight Heavenly Masters responsible for the security of this place. In addition to the two newcomers, there were twelve Level Eight Heavenly Masters. One had to know that these Level Eight Heavenly Masters were from the sect. They couldn't be compared to the Level Eight Heavenly Masters outside.
After the information was reported, Liu Yi asked the person to leave. Then, she looked at Lu An and asked, "Husband, what do you want to do?"
There was no other way. This matter wasn't the development of an ordinary alliance. There were too many unknown things. They didn't know how long Du Xin had been cultivating in the lake. If she had only cultivated for one or two days, then this opportunity couldn't be missed. However, if they acted rashly, it was very likely that something bad would happen.
Lu An also knew this. He frowned and lowered his head to think. He said before that this matter couldn't implicate his family and the Ice Fire Alliance. Gongye Qingshan was his friend, but he had to be responsible for the lives of everyone in the alliance. To the Ice Fire Alliance, Gongye Qingshan was just an outsider. It would be difficult to convince the people in the alliance if they risked their lives.
However … this was a rare opportunity.
The three women quietly waited for Lu An's decision. However, they couldn't completely listen to Lu An on this matter. If Lu An really made an excessive decision, Liu Yi would definitely stop and persuade him.
After a few breaths, Lu An finally raised his head. He looked at the three women and said very seriously, "I'm going to try it myself."
The moment he said that, the three women's delicate bodies trembled. They looked at Lu An in astonishment.
"Husband, you're going alone?" Yao anxiously said, "How can you do that?"
"That's right! This operation is very dangerous. Even the intelligence personnel don't dare to get close. If you go alone, you'll be throwing your life away! "Liu Yi quickly said.
"I don't agree either." Even Beauty Yang, who had never disobeyed Lu An, said anxiously, "This isn't something that can be done by one person!"
Looking at the three women's worried expressions, Lu An gently smiled and said, "I'm not someone who shows off. Don't forget, I have the power of space."
