Chapter 303 Southern Fortress
Chapter 303 Southern Fortress
Bei Family, Westen State, Holy Qilin Empire.
Bei Family was one of the largest merchant families in the Western State of the Holy Qilin Empire. However, the Imperial Family has special ties with them.
It was because not only the western border was financed by them, but the Bei Family was a branch of the Imperial Army that invested in weaponry and rations.
The Bei Family is also at a strategic point. Therefore, the grand formation was there to keep the main family safe. The formation has been working fine for the last thousand years.
However, there are some problems appeared in the array formations, making it useless. Therefore, the Bei Family hurriedly released the commissions regarding it,
In the current circumstances, the manpower of the Bei Family was short. The repairing of the array formation might take days and even weeks. In the meantime, a lot of evil forces might try to invade the family.
Therefore, along with skilled array formation masters, The Bei Family requested for the security backup. " Everyone, You know the rules. Don't create any mess and simply guard the places we are instructed." Luo Yingying looked behind, instructing the disciples of Four Seasons Valley.
" You do have the three emergency talismans, right?"
The disciples nodded. " Yes, Senior Sister Luo. We have all three emergency talismans. The communication bracelet, the hundred li teleportation talisman, and the Bright Turtle Talisman."
" That's good. The mission is important." Luo Yingying nodded, " However, your safety is more important."
" The faster the mission completes, the faster we can return."
" I hope this mission ends faster."
" Why they can't repair the formation quickly?"
" It must be the lack of array formation master in the Holy Qilin Empire. After all, I heard some of them went to the Central Domain due to some emergence of treasure."
" The Bei Family has hired two Formation King rank experts to repair the grand formation." Luo Yingying spoke in an excited voice. " I hope we will be able to learn something from them."
Luo Yingying remembered Long Ming's instructions before coming here. ' Senior Brother said I might have some opportunity here. Although our task is to protect the Bei Family estate, I should also try to observe their array formation repairing.'
' After all, It's a formation created by a Formation Emperor a thousand years ago. Maybe I can break my current bottleneck with this.'
The treasure boat zapped across the sky as the group soon reached the Bei Family. "Greetings, I am the Steward Liu." An old man hurried out and bowed before the group. Looking at the emblem, his gaze became respectful.
" You must be the disciples of Four Season Valley?"
" Greetings, Steward Liu." Luo Yingying nodded. " Me and my sister came on behalf of Four Seasons Valley regarding the request of the Bei Family."
" Haha, I am glad the Four Season Valley accepted our request." Steward Liu nodded as he turned around. " Please come with me. I would show you around the estate."
The Bei Family estate was pretty vast with sixteen giant pillars covering the entire estate. They were the formation nodes, which created and sustained the great formation.
" Please rest for a while, Ladies." The Steward Liu smiled. " The captain of the guards shall meet you shortly. He will assign you to your patrolling posts."
" Steward Liu, How is the work of array formation going?" Luo Yingying asked curiously.
" Haah, The array formation masters of Jiang Family are here. Other than that, the Formation King of Imperial Family and the Northwater Daoist have arrived yesterday."
" Then, Can you take me to the place where they are working?" Luo Yingying asked in an excited voice. " Maybe I can also help them?"

Southern Green Mountain.
" Wow, The Southern Green Mountain really holds its reputation."
" Such vast mountain range. It must contain so many demonic beasts inside."
" Beware." Shui Huan looked at the disciples as she shook her head. " The demonic beasts here are no joke. You better stay in the other area and be cautious in the inner area."
" The maximum you can go is the inner area. Do not go beyond that. Because, if your luck is bad, you might encounter a demon king there."
" We understand, Senior Sister Shui."
" However, I heard Senior Brother Long once won the competition of the Wine Gathering in the Southern Green City?"
Shui Huan heard the question from her junior as she pursed her lips. " Well, That's true. I was there when it happened."
" Ooh! Senior Sister Shui, Can you elaborate on what happened?"
Shui Huan saw the enthusiasm of the disciples. " You want to hear the story, huh?"
*ROAAR! ROAAAR!*
The echoes of the roars are reserved throughout the forest. One could feel the tremor of the ground as if hundreds of beasts rushing at the same time.
" The monster tide is coming." Shui Huan pulled out her saber. " If you manage to kill a large amount, I will tell you the story."
The eyes of the disciples sparkled when they heard Shui Huan's words.
" What? Are you telling the truth?"
" Fellow sisters! Pull out your weapons! We have the exterminate these rampaging beasts!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
" Let's see who can kill the most!"
Shui Huan joined the team as they attacked the incoming horde of the beasts. Various techniques rained on the beasts, turning them into shredded corpses.
" Hurry up and clean these beasts! We have a story to hear afterward!"
Ming Yuexin stood afar, looking at the scene with interest. ' Not bad, the disciples are promising. Shui Huan is also handling the situation well.'
' Ah, Senior Brother, Your charm is really getting a bit out of hand.' Ming Yuexin bit her lips.
' Should I just capture you and lock you up in my courtyard?'
' Ehe~ Guess I need to become stronger then.'

The edge of the border when the Eastern and Southern Domain meets. It could be considered as a lawless land, with fugitives from both sides fighting here.
" Whew, Sister Chen, This place is really barren. The true qi in the atmosphere is also so less." Lin Xie mumbled.
" There is a reason it's called a wasteland. It's nowhere near the abundance of the Eastern Domain." Chen Yin replied.
" That's why the unorthodox sects of the Southern Domain always wanted to capture the Eastern Domain.
Turning around, she looked at the group of disciples following her. " Our task is the defend the outer barrier of Southern Fortress and kill the disciples of the demonic faction."
" However, You must always stay together and don't act individually. The techniques of the unorthodox faction can be overwhelming."
" Be sure to collect the tokens or head of the evil cultivators. You can exchange them for the sect contribution points." " For now, Let's go and find an accommodation in the Southern Fortress first."
The Southern Fortress is actually a giant city, where the army of the Holy Qilin Empire is stationed. The giant city is truly like a vanguard against the forces of the Southern Domain.
A figure wearing a large conical hat moved in the crowd, hiding his face. His pace was leisurely as if he was exploring the city. " Hmm, Since I am here, I should start by gathering some information."
Thinking aloud, the figure walked into a tavern.
