Martial World's
Ch 319 - The Beast Tide Coming
…
…
…
"Yours?" Zhao Yanming was stunned.
“Mm. '' For a Revolving Core master like Ancestor Chi Yan, a mountain of ferocious beasts that could reach the Xiantian realm was naturally not something too precious.
"Gifted ..." Zhao Yanming gulped, unable to imagine what this senior character Lin Ming was like. They could really just reward a tame ferocious beast with this kind of Xiantian potential?
Of the 36 countries and 16 martial families in the Seven Profound realm, only the Grace Venerate Nation, the Zhang Family, and a few other forces had Xiantian masters; other powers simply did not have the ability to cultivate it. If a country had a Xiantian master guarding them, they would sleep soundly, not having to worry that the enemy would attack. They will be superior in diplomatic negotiations. Basically, what they say is what will be done.
If a country offended them, a Xiantian master could easily take their emperor head!
Thus, a savage beast that could potentially reach the Xiantian realm as an adult had innumerable values.
Yet this type of extremely powerful being was actually talented to Lin Ming …
Zhao Yanming did not know what it was like; he simply stared with his mouth agape. In the end, he could only feel regret because this young Winged Flood Dragon had yet to grow into an adult. Otherwise, with the support of a Xiantian level fighter, it would not be a big deal dealing with this ferocious wave.
As Lin Ming returned, this message was deliberately spread from the City Lord's propaganda office, sweeping across Green Mulberry City like a wave. In the morning, there are 90% fewer people planning to escape the coming disaster. Some had even left, but returned after receiving the news.
Ordinary people had no idea what role someone like Lin Ming could play in the beast tide invasion. But, what they knew was that Lin Ming was a true hero walking the streets of Green Mulberry City. With Lin Ming present, people felt an invisible and vibrant faith stir their hearts and souls.
Midday, City Lord Mansion –
Lin Ming's return worried all the high-ranking individuals in Green Mulberry City If this was the past, then if someone with Lin Ming's status returned, a large banquet would be held to welcome him home. The entire Green Mulberry City, including all the celebrities and top figures from other nearby cities would gather at this banquet, and experience the incredible manner of the Green Mulberry City hero.
But now, faced with an enemy that carried the threat of annihilation, everyone was panicking and could not arrange a banquet in time.
Inside the conference hall in the middle of the City Lord Mansion, six or seven people had gathered around the table. These people were all major power players of Green Mulberry City. There were the heads of the large families, as well as the City Lord Green City and the Vice City Lord.
City Green Mulberry City, Lord Zhao Yanming stood up first and said, “Young Hero Lin. First of all I would like to thank you on behalf of all the young and old citizens in Green Mulberry City. After the eruption of the ferocious wave, Young Hero Lin bravely crossed a great distance especially to return home. ”
Lin Ming waved his hand and said, "Master of Zhao City, there is no need to say such kind words. I am also a resident of Green Mulberry City. ”
"Mm .. then I'll throw away the small talk. The reason why we are gathered here in this meeting room is to discuss how Green Mulberry City should fight against the tidal plague of ferocious beasts. First, let me introduce the others. This here was the commander of the 10,000 garrison troops of Green Mulberry City, General Zhu Ping. ”
Zhao Yanming pointed to a middle-aged man sitting on the side of the table. This man's cultivation was at the middle Pulse Condensation period, and he had a pair of thick and heavy eyebrows. His eyes lifted, making him look extremely sharp.
"Zhu Ping greeted Young Hero Lin. "Zhu Ping got up from his chair, cupped his fists respectfully. Although he was just respectfully welcoming him, Lin Ming felt a slightly terrifying killing intent on that smiling face.
Zhu Ping's?
Someone from the Zhu Family?
Green Mulberry City has several prominent families. There were Lin, Zhu, Zhuang, Xie, and Lu families. Of all these, the Zhu Family was once the top family in Green Mulberry City. This was because a consort empress had been born from them, and the empress had a son who was also a titled prince. This was the current Tenth Prince Yang Zhen, and also the greatest threat to the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne.
But then, the genius of the Zhu Family, Zhu Yan, had experienced various conflicts with Lin Ming, with the final result of the Zhu Family being forced into a desperate situation with no way out. Finally, because they had no choice, the Zhu Family was forced to expel Zhu Yan from the family.
Even so, the contradiction between the Zhu Family and Lin Ming was not resolved. Lin Ming supported the Crown Prince, but the Zhu Family had long been tied to the Tenth Prince on the same ship. Afterwards, Lin Ming had become a direct disciple of the Seven Profound Valleys, and in that single act, the Crown Prince had been able to rise to power with an edge. The status of the Tenth Prince was precarious; in that case, the situation of the Zhu Family could be imagined.
With things like this, how could the commander of Green Mulberry City's armed forces, Zhu Ping, not hate Lin Ming?
Not only that, but Zhu Yan was Zhu Ping own nephew, Zhu Ping had watched Zhu Yan grow up. Seeing this youngster filled with talent and entering the Heavenly House of the Seven Profound Martial House in a single attempt, it was likely that he would become the next head of the Zhu Family. But he was finally forced by Lin Ming into a desolate and desolate path. Zhu Yan lost all contact with his family, and no one knew whether he was dead or alive.
As Zhao Yanming introduced the others, Lin Ming responded to them with a smile. But, he could sense that Zhu Ping smiling eyes contained an extremely faint killing intent. This killing intent was extremely difficult to detect. If not for Lin Ming's soul power and perception being far above others, he would never have noticed.
After everyone at the conference was introduced, Zhao Yanming said, "So now, I want to tell you all about the situation of the Green Mulberry Mountain Range. The Green Mulberry Mountain Range is 6,000 miles long, and the southern end extends into the Southern Wilderness. This then became the Southern Mountains of Zhao. The mountains were surrounded by huge and vibrant forests, with countless second and third level ferocious beasts. There were also many ferocious beasts that were the same as Pulse Condensation period martial artists, and even tier four beasts that were the same as Houtian martial artists.
"If this tide of ferocious beasts really erupts, it will be difficult for us to defend Green Mulberry City with our current strength. But we believe that there is only a very small chance that a savage beast will come. The ferocious beasts of the Southern Zhao mountain range were much closer to the Southern Wilderness. If the beast tide erupted, there should be a higher chance that they would have an impact on the Southern Tribe. That's not too far. There was no reason for a savage beast to rush five or six thousand miles to attack Green Mulberry City. ”
Lin Ming thought for a moment, and then slowly said, "I don't know if a ferocious beast will erupt from the Southern Zhao Mountains, either, but what I do know is that once a wave of beasts appears from the Southern Zhao Mountains, they will absolutely not attack the Southern Wilderness. They would climb mountains, cross rivers, and travel five or six thousand miles to attack Green Mulberry City. ”
"mm? Wh why? "Zhao Yanming's heart turned cold as he heard Lin Ming's words. Even though Lin Ming was young, with his identity, he would not be the one to speak nonsense
Lin Ming said, "Because this beast tide was planned by humans. The enemy's goal was to forcibly annex the entire Divine Phoenix Province, the 19 third-rate sects within and the countries under their jurisdiction. Even our Seven Profound Valleys are included in it. But the Southern Wilderness was a remote land without a large sect; it naturally could not be considered a target. ”
Whahuh?
The words Lin Ming feared everyone present!
Planned by men?
Attaching the entire Divine Phoenix Province?
The Seven Great Valleys was only one area?
This is too shocking! Everyone present had never heard of the Divine Phoenix Province before. But listening to the intent behind Lin Ming's words, it seemed that the Seven Profound Valleys were only one of the 19 third-rate sects within. The coverage of the Divine Phoenix Province might be several times greater than the vast Seven Profound realm several hundred thousand miles, or even tens of times greater!
What kind of terrifying magical power could push all the ferocious beasts within a radius of millions of miles into a frenzy such that the beast tide would erupt?
With their experience and knowledge, this was simply an unexpected action.
"Young Hero Lin, these words of yours sound a little like a fantasy novel ..." Zhu Ping fingers tapped on the table gently, a smile tilting his face. Even though he was smiling, his words were filled with a mocking tone.
"Does Army Command Zhu not believe me?" Asked Lin Ming, his eyes narrowed.
“Of course I believe! What status does Young Hero Lin have, Young Hero Lin will never speak nonsense, your words are true. I'm just a petty person from Green Mulberry City, it's no different from a frog in a well. My experience was limited, it was difficult for me to imagine such an incredible power. "When Zhu Ping spoke, he always smiled respectfully, as if he was actually speaking self-deprecating words.
Lin Ming faintly smiled, not responding.
Zhu Ping then said, “Because Young Hero Lin is so assured, then once the savage wave erupts, they will definitely directly come to Green Mulberry City. How does Young Hero Lin believe we should face this crisis? "
“Preserve a strong defense until support comes. ”
'' Mm ... as far as I know, Young Hero Lin has a mount that is on par with a Houtian realm martial artist, called the Winged Flood Dragon. Right now, this Winged Flood Dragon should have the strongest combat power within Green Mulberry City. I wonder if Young Hero Lin would mind lending the Winged Flood Dragon to the military? ”Zhu Ping hastily spoke as his eyebrows shot up in a question challenge.
"mm?" Lin Min frowned. He wanted to borrow the Winged Flood Dragon?
Why did Zhu Ping want to borrow the Winged Flood Dragon? Winged Flood Dragons were of little use to the military.
The Winged Flood Dragon was immature. In such a large-scale flood of beasts, if it was not properly ordered, it would be in danger of being killed. Lin Ming did not wish to lend the Winged Flood Dragon to the military. If his Winged Flood Dragon were to really die, all they could do was apologize, and Lin Ming would truly regret it.
Thinking this, Lin Ming said, "The Winged Flood Dragon has a very wild and unruly nature; it is impossible for your warriors to control it. If I lend it to you, then you won't be able to use it. I will keep it with me where it can display the strongest war power. ”
"Of course .. a pity. "Zhu Ping's lips twitched, sighing grimly.
This beast tide was the perfect opportunity to kill Lin Ming!
The Zhu family and the Tenth Prince were on the same ship together, there was no way out for the two of them. As long as Lin Ming remained alive, their defeat was a foregone conclusion.
Two days ago, Ouyang Boyan had been summoned back to the Total Faction of the Seven Profound Valleys due to the destruction of the Moon Seizing Clan. Before Ouyang Boyan left, he left two trusted subordinates to ambush Lin Ming; one in Sky Fortune City, and the other in Green Mulberry City.
The one hiding in Green Mulberry City had strength in the Houtian realm. His strength was only a step away from the peak of the Houtian realm.
According to Zhu Ping, if Lin Ming returned alone, then with the strength of Ouyang Boyan's trusted subordinate, he would be able to kill Lin Ming.
But now Lin Ming had the Winged Flood Dragon. Not only was this Winged Flood Dragon extremely fast, but its strength reached the Houtian realm. Like this, it would be extremely difficult to kill Lin Ming …
So, Zhu Ping thought of an excuse to borrow the Winged Flood Dragon. But he had actually been rejected by Lin Ming!
