Chapter 2088 What virtue is there?
The people inside Daijialing were lurking in the mountain protection formation with such a contradictory mentality.
When they found out that reinforcements were attacking the Demon Realm, they became even more conflicted. They hoped to be rescued, but they were not very excited about it...
It was also because of this that Dai Quanyan became unhappy when he heard the reinforcements say something like "something happened in the Star Palace."
He was originally somewhat dissatisfied with the Star Palace, but before this, he did not dare to express it openly.
Now his peaceful life was going to be disrupted. He was so angry that he didn't care about much else and asked, "So what if you don't want to?"
After hearing about this experience and mentality, not only Qu Jianlei, but even other people didn't know what to say.
After Dai Quanyan finished speaking, he looked at the Immortal Lei Shun who was not far away and spoke in a calm voice.
"You should know why the Dai family didn't go to Qiushui City? Their defense is too poor!"
Lei Shun Zhenxian looked strange, "Even though Daijialing is big, can it accommodate the entire population of Qiushui City?"
"Of course we can't accommodate them," Dai Quanyan answered without hesitation, "But does our Dai family have the obligation to do so?"
"We were able to rescue and treat Master Gao Xi, and we were also able to bring in nearby villagers for refuge. We have done a good job, right?"
He was just asking again with confidence when Duan Bowen suddenly spoke up, "Fellow Daoist Quan Yan, are your supplies well prepared?"
This statement is quite malicious. In such a turbulent time, how many people would be concerned about having such a large amount of supplies?
The supplies are enough to support more than 300,000 people for many years. Not to mention Dai Quanyan, who is a Nascent Soul, even adding Dai Quanjing may not be enough.
If the Demonic Rebellion continues for a long time, even if the missing Nascent Soul of the Dai family comes back, it will be difficult to recover.
Dai Quanyan sensed malicious intent and glanced at Duan Bowen indifferently, "Do we have a grudge against each other?"
"You can have it now," Duan Bowen looked at the other person calmly, "What do you plan to choose?"
Dai Quanyan was stunned for a moment, then he actually laughed, "Okay, I was wrong, I should really thank you all."
They have been attacking the Demon Realm for so long, but I... seem to be resentful. I am really a little ignorant.
Then he looked at Huo Jiujian again, "City Lord Huo, wait a moment, I will have someone bring out the stone jar right away."
Huo Jiujian blinked his eyes and asked, "How many spirit stones did you spend on it?"
"It doesn't matter," Dai Quanyan waved his hand simply, "It's just a small token of my appreciation."
"Let's put it this way," Huo Jiujian said in a serious tone, "If it is verified in the future that you are suspected, I will not be polite..."
If it were other insignificant objects, he would not care about such small details, but things related to the rules must be treated seriously.
In short, no room for criticism can be left. After all, after True Man Wu Yao, there is also the deputy hall master True Immortal He Gen.
"This is really..." Dai Quanyan sighed helplessly, "Then let's go with three thousand supreme spirits."
Originally he wanted to do a favor, but now that everything according to the rules is gone, is there any need to worry about the cost of picking up a bargain?
But the other party's attitude showed that the matter was not over yet and he also had a temper, so he named a price.
It was precisely because of this that he became furious: Did I ask you to break open this Demonic Realm?
It's as if my family has received a huge favor from you. One of you said the matter is not over yet, while the other one is talking about the supplies...
Not long after, someone took out a stone jar. Huo Jiujian put it away and gave out another three thousand supreme spirits.
Dai Quanyan was angry and didn't bother to be polite to the other party anymore - from his point of view, it was not surprising to have such a reaction.
However, Duan Bowen was really a talented person. He actually spoke again, "Daoyou Quan Yan, you seem to have some opinions about me?"
"I dare not," Dai Quanyan said expressionlessly, "Fellow Daoist, you can break the Heavenly Demon Realm, how dare I object?"
"You're not smart enough!" Duan Bowen pointed at him and spoke seriously.
"Even if I didn't ask you about the supplies, do you think others wouldn't have thought of it? I'm just giving you a chance to explain!"
"Then thank you so much!" Dai Quanyan was really angry and amused when he heard that.
But what the other party said was right. There was really no need for him to worry about it.
But for some reason, he always felt that the other party was teasing him.
However, even so, the explanation still needs to be given, and it does feel a bit bad.
He said solemnly, "The supplies prepared by the Dai family can only be said to be acceptable, and there is no record of large-scale purchases of supplies..."
Dai Quanyan emphasized that the environment created by Daijialing is relatively good. Simply put, it is a relatively closed-loop ecological environment.
Most daily necessities can be produced independently and then recycled by consuming little energy.
He even used caves as an analogy - aren't the caves of those powerful beings also like this?
Then he said seriously that if anyone did not believe it, they could send representatives to Daijialing for a visit.
But then he also emphasized that some key confidential information cannot be seen by others.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Duan Bowen provocatively, "Is this Taoist friend interested in taking a look?"
Duan Bowen smiled indifferently, "I don't need to, I just feel a little strange about your mentality."
Then he looked at Qu Jianlei again, "How about... just like this?"
"That's fine then," Qu Jianlei said expressionlessly, then looked at Dai Quanyan and spoke calmly.
"Your people should prepare themselves. You can handle the remaining demonic energy on yourselves."
Saving people caused a lot of gossip from others, who were not very willing to do so, and he didn't think it was meaningful.
Although Dai Quanyan was not in a good mood, his perception ability was still not bad.
There are a total of five Nascent Souls outside. If Lei Shun is not counted, the other four are in the same group.
He could sense the identities of these four people just from their positions, and from their words, behavior, and eye movements...
He was basically certain that this Yuanying who spoke very little should be the one with the highest status among the four.
Even when Huo Jiu met the city lord, in front of this person - he at least seemed to be asking for help.
Hearing this, he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Then he looked at the many warships in the sky and asked tentatively, "Daoyou, is this yours?"
"Hmm," Qu Jianlei snorted expressionlessly and raised his hand to aim at a company-class ship.
The huge company-class ship suddenly disappeared after a space fluctuation.
This was because Qu Jianlei was worried about scaring the people present, so he collected the boats one by one, otherwise he would have destroyed them all at once.
"Hmm?" Dai Quanyan frowned slightly when he saw this. "Wait a minute, fellow Daoist, are you selling this? I'm willing to pay a high price for it."
"You think too much," Huo Jiujian sneered, "I can't even buy it, how can you be so worthy of it, fellow Daoist?"
Dai Quanyan ignored his joke and looked at Qu Jianlei and said, "You can also introduce a way to purchase."
This time, Qu Jianlei didn't even look at him. He raised his hand, and another warship disappeared.
These people... Dai Quanyan muttered secretly in his heart, but the communication just now was not friendly at all, so he could only complain in his heart.
Soon, in full view of everyone, Qu Jianlei collected all the warships.
Dai Quanyan saw this and said with a sigh, "My fellow Taoist, the expenses... will be paid by the Dai family. Just tell me the amount."
Right now, he must first show enough goodwill.
"No need," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "City Lord Huo has already agreed to pay."
He really couldn't say that he would bear the burden, otherwise this style of doing things would definitely remind people of Hongyeling.
Huo Jiujian added with a dark face, "Fighting against the demons is everyone's responsibility. If you have this intention, you should help more people."
Although they got the stone jar as they wished, the four of them still felt a little bored on the way back.
The True Immortal Lei Shun left behind a few people to help clear the demonic energy - after all, the Dai family had suffered such a disaster, and Qiu Shui City should also express its gratitude.
The threat from the demons is far from over. For Qiu Shui City, the magical features of Daijialing should be utilized well.
However, he himself left with the four Nascent Souls - the relevant news should also be informed to the city as soon as possible.
While on the way, he also took the initiative to strike up a conversation, wanting to find out Qu Jianlei's true identity.
No matter how much the immortal cultivator looked down on mundane weapons, the power of dozens of warships still left a very deep impression on him.
Although this thing is not very presentable, it is really useful if it is large in quantity and can fill you up!
Like this time, after destroying such a large Demonic Domain, only a few people were slightly injured. Who would dare to believe this?
Moreover, the few people who were slightly injured were those who were injured during the process of encircling and suppressing the Heavenly Demons after the Heavenly Demon Realm was shattered.
But unfortunately, the owner of the mortal warship was unusually aloof and almost never responded, like a mute.
Finally, Huo Jiujian couldn't stand it anymore. "If you have this idea, use it to prevent the demons. Your Xiqiu City is very dangerous!"
This time they helped, but they only broke up one demon domain, and quite a few demons escaped.
Under such circumstances, it is hard to say how much the danger faced by Qiu Shui City has been reduced.
As for the entire Xiqiu City's defense plan, City Lord Huo was too lazy to complain.
If the situation in Daye City was the same, he would probably have to consider how to commit suicide in a dignified manner.
Upon hearing this, Lei Shun Zhenxian couldn't help but said, "City Lord Huo, this is our condition."
"If you really want to help, then we will move the entire Qiushui City to Daye City. Are you willing to accept it?"
"I..." Huo Jiu was stunned by this question, and shook his head after a long time, "You have the responsibility to defend the land!"
Although the Lord of Xiqiu City did not care about the lives of the people below, he also issued a clear order that the cultivators were not allowed to escape without permission.
Otherwise, your entire clan will be exterminated!
The method of clan extermination is not common in the Cangwu world.
Unless they have committed a serious taboo such as practicing evil, under normal circumstances, the mayor of a first-tier city cannot arbitrarily execute an entire clan.
However, this is obviously not an ordinary situation. The full-scale invasion of the demons is imminent, and the cultivators have the responsibility to defend the land.
The order issued by the Lord of Xiqiu City was a clear one, which was a public announcement. It was not considered a violation of the rules, nor was it a punishment without instruction.
