Chapter 1075: Ice City Mobilizes
Time passed by second by second.
Chen Tianlong wandered in the hotel for a long time. Finally, he decided to return to his room and began to use his X-ray ability. Surprisingly, the building was inhabited by hundreds of Huaxia people, and Chen Tianlong even saw some familiar faces: Situ Feng and Shangguan Ba.
Actually, the person Chen Tianlong most wanted to find was Hao Shuai. This guy had to be dealt with; everything started because of him.
However, Hao Shuai was nowhere to be found in the entire hotel.
As for the people from the Eight Great Sects, he had predicted them long before. These people were not the key; Chen Tianlong feared Hao Shuai would hide with other top masters of the Celestial Pill Sect and suddenly appear, which would be the real trump card.
As for the internal chaos in the Black Alliance and the like, Chen Tianlong wasn’t worried because, in the South Sea City, he had already instructed Shen Yan and Liu Ting to go to Ice City.
In Ice City.
Bing Ruxue had just returned from the Five Elements Sect. After a week of training, she finally learned the Heaven-Sealing King Snow, but it was still not proficient.
Why would the Five Elements Sect be so generous as to hand over the secret to Bing Ruxue?
This was actually quite simple, because the Ice Hall decided to regard the Five Elements Sect as an ally and sent gifts and over fifty million in money, along with various celestial materials and treasures. The Five Elements Sect had no choice but to comply.
Moreover, Cheng Qianjin heard that the Ice Hall had merged with North City, and the City Lord turned out to be Chen Tianlong.
In that case, in principle, the Ice Hall was under Chen Tianlong’s domain. If Cheng Qianjin showed any disrespect, it was possible that Chen Tianlong might destroy the Five Elements Sect in retaliation.
Therefore, Cheng Qianjin thought it over and decided to ally with the Ice Hall.
In recent days, the Black Panther Assassin Group had already visited. Fang Yan knew that people from the Celestial Pill Sect, leading the Seven Great Sects, were still sweeping across Huaxia. When he heard the news of Ye Feng’s passing, he was filled with deep sorrow.
"Someone, inform the Ice Hall Master to immediately convene an important meeting," Fang Yan ordered.
"Okay, boss." The subordinate accepted the order and immediately went to carry it out.
Around noon, which was the same day Chen Tianlong boarded the ship, the conference room of the Fang Family in North City was already filled with people, including Bing Ruxue and various generals.
At the same time, two people appeared at the entrance of the Ice Hall; they were Shen Yan and Liu Ting.
The Matchmaker saw these two young women and recognized them immediately, directly bringing them into the hall and asked with concern, "Ladies, why have you suddenly come? Is there an emergency?"
The Matchmaker was a clever person and saw it at a glance.
"Yes, Matchmaker, Chen Tianlong instructed us to seek help from the Hall Master. Please ask her to take action; otherwise, he might not make it back." Liu Ting said worriedly.
"Ah? Is that so? However, the Hall Master just went to the Fang Family in North City." The Matchmaker thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I’ll call the Hall Master. Since they are in North City now, and the Ice Hall and North City are one family now, if help is really needed, we can gather our forces without having to make another trip."
Hearing this, the two nodded.
In no time, the Matchmaker, with a smile on her face, told the two, "Ladies, the Hall Master has asked you to go to the Fang Family in North City immediately and attend the meeting with them."
"Ah? Us, attend the meeting?" Liu Ting was surprised. They were only there to deliver news and hadn’t expected to become members of the meeting.
"Yes, you are friends of Chen Tianlong, and Chen Tianlong is the Alliance Leader of North City and the Ice Hall. If you don’t qualify to attend, who does?" The Matchmaker smiled slightly and began instructing her subordinates to prepare a car.
Thus, Liu Ting and Shen Yan did not delay much, went out, got into the car, and quickly headed toward the Ice Hall in North City.
Fang Family Courtyard.
Everyone was discussing how to deal with the Eight Great Sects, led by the Celestial Pill Sect, to avenge the Assassin Group. Before long, they saw Liu Ting and Shen Yan walk in, and Bing Ruxue quickly rose to arrange seats for them beside her.
"Liu Ting, Shen Yan, tell us, what kind of help does Chen Tianlong need?" Bing Ruxue directly asked.
Liu Ting smiled slightly and began to explain everything verbatim to those present. After listening, Fang Yan frowned. Indeed, he never expected the Celestial Pill Sect to have such an enormous appetite. As a senior leader in the Cultivator Association, Fang Yan was one of the five chairpersons.
The Cultivator Association is divided into chairpersons and vice-chairpersons, with the chairperson being Pure Yang Daoist from the Celestial Pill Sect. There are four vice-chairpersons, among whom two are still from the Celestial Pill Sect, namely Second Uncle Master Daoist Taiyi and Third Uncle Master Sikong Jingyun.
These people are all at the Celestial Dao’s Great Perfection stage, but they arrived at different times.
The other two vice-chairpersons of the association, of course, include Fang Yan and a master uncle from the Sword Dao Sect, Xiao Jian. As for Wu Jian and Nie Feng, known as the Thunderbolt Heroes, they disappeared ten years ago and have nothing to do with the association.
"It seems it’s time for me to take action." Fang Yan said coldly, "Immediately gather the personnel; we must set out at once. Otherwise, if delayed, Chen Tianlong might not survive."
Fang Yan knows the Celestial Pill Sect; it cannot be as simple as just relying on the Eight Great Sects. There must be more tricks up their sleeve. The Sect Leader of the Celestial Pill Sect, Pure Yang Daoist, is shrewd and has long aimed to unify the world. Now, with such a good opportunity to destroy the Black Alliance, how could he not seize it tightly?
It’s known that the Black Alliance has almost two hundred thousand troops, and if one could control the Black Alliance, even the nation would not dare to match easily. By then, calling the wind and summoning the rain, there’s nothing they can’t do.
"Yes, boss." The subordinates received the order.
At this time, Bing Ruxue already gave orders to her generals, started to mobilize the troops, and swiftly prepared passenger ships, intending to directly charge to Black Alliance City.
With such a huge formation, even the Black Alliance City government wouldn’t dare to intercept lightly, not to mention that the government here is controlled by the Black Alliance. If the Black Alliance really encountered a major issue, there would be no talk of interception.
Around one in the afternoon, the alliance of Ice Hall and North City had already gathered and prepared to depart. At this moment, suddenly a report came in that at the pier leading to the port, thirty thousand elite soldiers from East City were standing there, with unclear intentions.
Fang Yan and Bing Ruxue arrived immediately, and what greeted them was a black Land Rover.
"May I ask if you two still recognize me?" Lin Kaifeng grinned.
"Hehe, Chief Instructor Lin, right? Our alliance never offended East City, so what do you mean by this?" Bing Ruxue wasn’t worried about Lin Kaifeng’s actions. After all, their alliance had brought forty thousand people, along with numerous masters, so there was no need to worry.
"Hehe, I heard my buddy Chen Tianlong is in trouble.... How can I stand by and do nothing?" Lin Kaifeng had made up his mind. If it weren’t for Chen Tianlong, East City would have long been destroyed.
North City and the Ice Hall are already under Chen Tianlong. If they really wanted to destroy East City, it would be as easy as pie. But so much time had passed, and they hadn’t taken any action; the only explanation is that Chen Tianlong hadn’t lied to him.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Bing Ruxue detected something unusual.
