The coast of the South China Sea.
The disciples of the academy camped on the coast, and the Yingzhou Island was not far away, but the clouds and mists around Yingzhou Island made it difficult to see its true appearance. Jimo Huaxue stood alone on the shore, with the Hongyan Sword on her waist ready to move. Mo Wen walked to her side, pressed the hilt of the Hongyan Sword, and shook his head at her: "You can't do it alone."
"What if I go late?" asked Jimo Huaxue.
"If he were here, he wouldn't want you to go, because Junior Sister is very important to him, but you are more important." Mo Wen said expressionlessly.
Jimo Huaxue hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "You make sense." After that, Jimo Huaxue turned around and walked back to the camp.
Mo Wen breathed a sigh of relief: "I never thought that one day I would mention Nanyulou in person. What a failure."
"City Lord Mo is a good man." Zhou Zheng walked to Mo Wen with a smile.
Mo Wen shook his head: "Don't say the word good person. These two words are the most feared in relationships."
"But what the Lord of Jimo City said is right. What if it's too late? We must act quickly." Zhou Zheng stopped smiling and looked serious.
"Where are the others?" Mo Wen asked.
Zhou Zheng gave a bitter smile: "They say they are all on the way, but with so many sects, each with their own ideas, it is hard to say whether they can really join hands to fight the enemy. I am afraid that many sects will arrive at the last minute, waiting for us to have a big battle with Yingzhou first, and then both sides will suffer losses."
Mo Wen nodded: "It is a difficult battle to fight, and you have to calculate yourself."
"After all, not everyone is willing to fight for their life. Sometimes staying alive is more important than anything else." Zhou Zheng sighed.
"Someone is coming." Mo Wen heard the sound of horse hooves, and saw a huge group of people and horses marching towards them not far away. Each of them had a long sword on his waist. The long sword had no sheath, but it still emitted a cool light in the dark night.
"Is it Tianxiaoyun Realm?" Mo Wen was stunned.
Zhou Zheng was also a little surprised: "So many people? Are they moving the entire Tianxiao Cloud Realm to the South Sea?"
The leader took off his hood, shook off the dust inside, and rode to Zhou Zheng and Mo Wen. "I am Feng Yuhan of the Feng family, greetings to Mr. Zhou and City Lord Mo."
Mo Wen bowed his head and said, "So it's Sect Master Feng. We've known each other for a long time!"
Feng Yuhan curled his lips and said, "Indeed, we have been friends for a long time. Over the years, we in Tianxiaoyun Realm often receive bills from Demon City. Every time I see them, I want to go and greet City Lord Mo. But everyone in the world says that my sword can be ranked in the top three, but City Lord Mo's sword is definitely the best. So forget it."
"Hahahaha. Sect Master Feng is joking." Mo Wen scratched his head embarrassedly.
"My son, thanks to City Lord Mo for his guidance over the years." Feng Yuhan clasped his fists.
Mo Wen sighed softly: "Zuo Jun... "
"No need to say more." Feng Yuhan waved his hand to interrupt Mo Wen's words, "Zuo Jun is the glory of our Feng family. Neither the academy nor the Demon City is responsible for his death. Our Feng family will definitely avenge him. Today, everyone in our Tianxiaoyun Realm who can fight has arrived. We only need to wait for the academy to give the order, and then we will draw our swords."
Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "Okay."
Just as he finished speaking, another group of people came from the east. A red flag fluttered in the night wind, and the word "King" on it was faintly visible.
"The Wang family of Jiangnan?" Feng Yuhan glanced at Zhou Zheng. Since the Heroes Conference, the Wang family had almost disappeared.
"Gee!" A man rode out from the crowd on horseback. After he arrived in front of Zhou Zheng and the others, he jumped off his horse. He was handsome and elegant. It was none other than Wang Buchen, the current acting head of the Wang family. He clasped his fists towards everyone and said, "Junior Wang Buchen, nice to meet you seniors."
Zhou Zheng replied, "Hello, Young Master Wang. I didn't expect that the first of the four major families to arrive would be the Wang family."
"What? Do you think my Wang family is despicable and shameless, seeking profit and avoiding harm? Shouldn't we be at the forefront?" Wang Buchen said with a smile.
Zhou Zheng shook his head: "That's not what I meant."
"We are not wrong to think so. That was a mistake our Wang family once made." Wang Buchen took out a scroll and a small red brush from his arms and handed them to Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng was stunned: "What?"
"Mr. Zhou, I have read your books for more than ten years. Please leave a signature for me so that I can die without regrets on my trip to the South China Sea!" Wang Buchen licked his lips, looking a little excited.
"Uh..." Zhou Zheng smiled helplessly, took the pen and wrote his name on the scroll.
Wang Buchen took back the scroll: "Although I am the acting head of the family, there is still someone in the family who can really have the final say. He said that there is still one more battle in this life, and he wants to try not to fight for himself."
"Oh?" Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"Fight for the world." Wang Buchen got back on his horse, "Let's find a place to set up camp. Although the Wang family and the academy are on the same page, there is one person who will make me want to draw my sword when I see him."
"Who?" Mo Wen asked.
"That person is here too." Zhou Zheng looked into the distance.
People from the Dongfang family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan, also arrived.
The person walking in front was naturally the head of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Yunwo.
"I met the head of the Dongfang family once many years ago, and I felt that his temperament seemed to have changed." Feng Yuhan whispered.
“When your ambition, which you have suppressed for many years, explodes completely at a certain moment, your temperament will also change. Once a tiger shows its claws, it can never be a cat again,” Zhou Zheng said.
"Mr. Zhou is really talented in writing. I will read some of his books when I go back." Mo Wen said with a smile.
Zhou Zheng smiled bitterly: "But you have to be able to return alive first."
"The Dongfang family has arrived." Dongfang Yunwo rode up to them and said, "All orders will be sent by the academy."
Zhou Zheng said meaningfully: "Whether to fight or retreat, it's all up to us?"
Dongfang Yun I shook my head: "Gentleman is joking, just fight, don't retreat!"
Zhou Zheng sighed softly: "Master Dongfang is a man of great ambition."
"There is something I have said to those people in Yingzhou, and I am willing to say it to you here as well." Dongfang Yunwo turned his horse's head and headed towards his own people. "Killing Wang Ruoxu is for our Dongfang family, but it does not mean that our Dongfang family is that despicable and snobbish person."
"Dongfang Yunwo is a trustworthy person." A handsome young man in green clothes appeared beside them at some point.
"Man in blue, when did you come?" Mo Wen was stunned.
"I just arrived, representing the Xie family of Jiangnan." The man in green said quietly.
"Where are the people from your Xie family?" Mo Wen looked around but did not see any people from the Xie family.
The man in green clothes smiled and said, "The Xie family has lost its talent, and I am the only one on this trip. Please excuse me for making fun of you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zheng no longer cared about gentlemanly etiquette and cursed directly: "I thought the villains had brought their entire elite to fight, and I thought they were our own people, but here is a shameless person who comes to make up the numbers!"
