A few days later, in a walled city located a few hundred kilometers west of the South Bay.
This was a walled city in the frontline camp of the Qian Lin Army. People from the Da Qi State and various local people lived here. Because of the existence of the military camp, it was quite lively.
At this time, in the tavern in the walled city, all the tables were occupied. Some of the mountain people and a dozen soldiers were bragging loudly, drinking and eating.
Zuo Zhicheng was wearing a black robe and was sitting quietly in the corner of the tavern. His face was covered by a hood, so no one could see his face clearly. It was obvious that he was trying to hide his identity.
However, the tavern was still a tavern. While he was sitting and waiting, he could still hear some news from time to time.
"Damn, it's been so boring lately. I'm exhausted from training every day."
"Training is always better than fighting."
"Hehe, that's not necessarily true. How can you get rich without fighting? And that little bitch from the Newman Tribe, damn it, she's even prettier than the women from the Da Qi State. "
As soon as the last person finished speaking, the soldiers beside him burst into laughter.
Another person said, "Did you hear? The reason there hasn't been any fighting recently is because all the natives that day joined forces and formed some big alliance."
"My big brother is standing guard beside the general. I heard this news. It seems that there are going to be peace talks."
"Peace talks? Are you serious? So many people have died. How can there be peace talks? "
When Zuo Zhicheng heard these people's words, his heart skipped a beat. However, there was no change in his eyes. After waiting for about ten minutes, an ordinary-looking, short man of about thirty years old sat beside Zuo Zhicheng.
He looked very ordinary. He was the kind of person who would be hard to remember if he fell into a crowd. However, this kind of person was born for intelligence work.
As soon as he sat down, he said softly in a voice that ordinary people could not hear, "Sir, sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's fine." Zuo Zhicheng asked faintly, "How are the preparations going?"
The man smiled bitterly. "You may have heard it just now. The war at the border has stopped recently, and there are fewer goods."
"It doesn't matter. Take me there first."
The man nodded, and the two of them walked out of the tavern one after another. Zuo Zhicheng followed behind the man, turning left and right as they walked through the walled city. The places they walked became more and more remote. Finally, they turned into a secret door. The man knocked a few times with a special rhythm. The door was opened, and the two of them walked in.
At this point, Zuo Zhicheng could clearly feel that the man's heartbeat had slowed down, and he seemed to have relaxed a little.
"I'm sorry, Sir. Recently, the four armies have been planning for peace talks, and the surveillance near the border has been very tight."
"In your opinion … what are the chances of success?" Zuo Zhicheng asked as he rubbed his chin.
"The chances of success are very high. We have reliable news that the marquis of the Cloud Feather Army has sent a representative to the higher-ups of the indigenous alliance. This time, the alliance and peace talks are led by them.
Also, it is said that after destroying the Underworld Sect, they have started to open up a trade route from east to west. If it is really opened up, not only the New World, but even the Western Continent and the Central Plains will be connected by this trade route. The wealth contained in this is self-evident. "
Hearing this, Zuo Zhicheng could not help but frown. He had heard that the marquis of Yong Yi had an indigenous country with millions of people inland, which was already very powerful. He did not expect that he had the ability to unite so many indigenous people and even open up a trade route.
This involved the New World, the West, and the East. How many forces, organizations, and countries were there? Once it was successful, the marquis of Yong Yi would probably become the richest person in the world just by collecting travel fees.
Moreover, there was also the indigenous alliance. Once this alliance was successful, coupled with the strength of the Cloud Feather Army, they would probably become a giant in the New World in an instant. Zuo Zhicheng would not be surprised if they could even establish a country overseas.
Moreover, the most important point was that the other three armies were actually preparing for peace talks with the Cloud Feather Army. What did this mean? It was obvious that during the process and result of destroying the Underworld Sect, something had happened between them that Zuo Zhicheng did not know about.
This also meant that the Da Qi State's army in the New World was already rotten. It was no wonder that after they let him go, they did not come looking for trouble again. It seemed that other than the fact that the strength that he had displayed was very troublesome, their main focus was now on the peace talks and the alliance.
Although the Underworld Sect was rich in treasures, it was nothing compared to the trade route that connected the East and the West, as well as the indigenous empire with a population of more than one billion people.
Thinking of this, Zuo Zhicheng suddenly felt that the destruction of the Underworld Sect did not seem to be as simple as it seemed.
However, Zuo Zhicheng only thought about it for a while. The most important thing for him now was to increase his strength and develop his forces. According to the voyage between the New World and the Central Plains, he estimated that Shenzong's next wave of attack would arrive in six to eight months at most.
He estimated that even if Shenzong did not come by himself, he was afraid that there would be Void Refinement Realm martial artists or Galaxy-Creating Daoist priests.
At that time, he, the Shadow Corps, the Tiger-Wolf Cavalry, He Zizai, Qing Yueqiu, Qing Yueying, Jiang Tien-cheng, Li Xunyi, and the others, as well as the subordinates that he had trained himself, might all be needed to help.
Zuo Zhicheng nodded at the person and said, "Let's take a look first."
Thus, the person led Zuo Zhicheng into a basement. As the torch was lit, little faces appeared in front of Zuo Zhicheng. They were all five, six, seven, and ten years old children. They appeared in front of Zuo Zhicheng and looked curiously at Zuo Zhicheng and the person behind him.
Zuo Zhicheng glanced at them and said casually, "Next, I'll do a few moves. After half an hour, each of you will repeat them. Whoever does the best can come with me. There will be meat and money to eat every day."
Upon hearing Zuo Zhicheng's words, the children immediately got up. Especially when they heard that there would be meat to eat every day, it was extremely attractive to them. Even their eyes seemed to emit waves of green light.
Seeing them like this, Zuo Zhicheng finally nodded. He got into a stance and performed a set of the most basic Xumi Long Fist.
He already knew whether these kids had Xiantian Qi or not. However, he would definitely choose the better ones who had Xiantian Qi. As for the problem of the Life Cluster, he would check it later.
