Chapter 471: Chapter 204 Taishan District, Jingshi Pavilion, Door-knocking Brick_2
Qu Lingjun eyed Luo Chen, whose expression seemed to be slightly dissatisfied, and asked in confusion.
“It’s nothing,” Luo Chen’s gaze flickered and he lightly ordered, “Let Hui Niang know that the brothers within the association can visit Taishan District, but they need to travel in groups and try not to have conflicts with local people.”
“Okay, I’ll go tell the president right away.”
By the time Qu Lingjun nodded, Luo Chen had already flitted away.
On the Dragon Whale Ship.
Luo Chen landed and ran into Li Yixian who had just arrived.
The two nodded in acknowledgment to each other and then walked into the hall together.
Nangong Jin had arrived early and Wang Haichao was even sitting on the top seat.
The four settled down and went straight to the point.
“When are they coming?”
Wang Haichao said grimly, “Soon! Just be patient!”
Patient?
How could they possibly be patient!
They had already sent their cultivators to inquire about the situation in Taishan District beforehand.
Under the impact of the war between Yu Ding Sword Sect and Luo Yun Sect, the cultivators of Yu Ding Sword Pavilion here have already left en masse.
The vast Taishan District, without the suppressive might of the local ruler, was without a leader.
Even though there were still businesses of the Six Ascendant Sects stationed, they were after all foreign forces and had no say.
As a result, the power of speech in the local district city was mainly concentrated on the three local clans.
The Huo Family of Red Toad Mountain, Kang Family of Taishan, and Yu Family of Yi Hua Mountain.
Among these three families, The Huo Family, who is backed by the Flame Alliance and has an ancestor who has reached the Sixth Level Foundation Establishment, has the greatest say.
Whether the four major forces of The Great River District could settle in this area depended on their approval.
If they did not agree, a struggle was inevitable.
Li Yixian voiced his concern: “We have brought too many people. Those rogue cultivators are still fine, they float here and there, they don’t become a force no matter where they go. But our four forces will definitely impact the survival of local clans.”
“It seems, it won’t be that smooth!”
After landing, Nangong Jin was less impetuous.
At this moment, he hummed lightly, “It would be best if we could negotiate peacefully. If not, we can only force our way through.”
Is he trying to imitate the previous situation in The Great River District?
Since when did Nangong Jin become so bold?
Luo Chen gave him a glance.
Then, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
Because Nangong Jin was looking at Wang Haichao.
“I’m right, right, President?”
He wanted Wang Haichao to be the pioneering daredevil!
Wang Haichao gave Nangong Jin a deep look without uttering a word.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly cooled down.
Nangong Jin was a bit embarrassed, but he didn’t think much of it.
He could see it clearly. Luo Chen and Li Yixian had the same idea in their mind.
However, they had deep roots and would not speak so openly.
For the sake of his own clan, he had to do some unpleasant things.
Just as the four were waiting in silence, the noise from outside gradually ceased.
Suddently!
The four abruptly lifted their heads to see a paper crane flying in.
A Sound Transmission Paper Crane?
Wang Haichao gestured for it and caught the paper crane.
As the transmission entered his ears, his face gradually darkened.
After a long while, he finally raised his head.
“We, may have to wait for a while.”
“Huh?”
“Why is that?”
“Are they hanging us?”
In response to their inquiries, Wang Haichao somberly said:
“The ancestor of Red Toad Mountain’s Huo Family is in closed-door cultivation, and we will have to wait for his emergence before the various forces in Taishan District will decide whether to accept us.”
At these words, the expressions of Luo Chen and the other two changed.
Were they real or fake?
An excuse?
Or perhaps, did they have other considerations?
No conclusion was reached after some discussion.
Luo Chen and the others were helpless and dispersed.
After they had left, Wang Haichao took out the Sound Transmission Paper Crane again and carefully caressed it.
The expression on his face fluctuated unpredictably.
After arriving at Taishan District, most of the rogue cultivators who came with The Great River District had disembarked.
Most of them would stay here, and under normal circumstances, they would also survive in the vicinity in the future.
A small part might go to other district cities.
Others were hoping that Great Sects would return to The Great River District to clean up the aftermath and they might go back to their old place.
The cultivators of the four major forces, after wandering for a day, returned to the ship one after another in the evening.
At midnight.
A figure, with breath almost nonexistent, quietly left the cabin.
Crossing the water waves, he leaped to the ship of the Li Family.
Just as Luo Chen was about to sneak in, his brow suddenly raised.
Echoing towards the direction of the passing shadows, he muttered softly: “Friend Li?”
In the darkness of night, a pair of bright eyes gazed back mysteriously.
“Huh? Friend Luo?”
Isn’t it a coincidence? The direction the other party was heading to was obviously the ship of Luo Tian Creed.
Their purpose was self-evident.
Looking at the barely visible figure that resembled a charming piece of dead wood, Luo Chen praised: “An excellent stealth technique!”
Li Yixian was also looking at him in complete surprise.
“Friend, your stealth technique is also remarkable!”
Earlier, it was Luo Chen who discovered her first.
“Change locations?” Luo Chen suggested.
“Yes, you lead the way!”
Luo Chen didn’t hesitate and flew to a dense forest outside Taishan District City.
Following the trace of breath Luo Chen had intentionally left behind for her, Li Yixian closely followed him.
“It’s rumored that Luo Chen is extremely adept at techniques. Looking at it now, it’s indeed true.”
“My Huayin Mantra, which I’ve been practicing for many years, is considered unparalleled in concealing breath and masking form.”
“But I didn’t expect that compared to him, I’d still fall short.”
Very quickly, the two arrived at their destination.
After landing, Luo Chen looked around to make sure there was no one spying.
He cast a Sound Isolation Technique, covering them both.
He was about to speak when they both looked at each other and laughed.
“What’s your opinion?” Li Yixian asked with a smile.
