Upon hearing this, cheerful laughter immediately filled the air.

"We were all frightened by the fierce attacks of the sea creatures before, but now, after this battle, we realize that the sea creatures are nothing special!"

"We were able to drive the sea creatures back to the sea in five thousand years, there's no reason for us to let them stir up trouble now!"

The crowd's voices were filled with confidence.

Clearly, after the recent battle, everyone has regained their confidence.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Hongyuan laughed and said, "Then let's set off as soon as possible. There are still many more sea creature camps waiting for us to clear out."

Having said that, the crowd no longer hesitated. Beams of light shone forth and shot into the sky like swift arrows of light, flying northward...

...

Three days later, inside the Four Directions City.

Now that the Four-Party Alliance has just been established, it is a busy time.

In the main hall of the city lord's mansion, beams of light continuously fell into it, while at the same time, many beams of light shot into the sky and rushed into the distance.

These are all messages from various sources.

Inside the main hall, Chen Tianwen, along with representatives from the four sects of Xuantian, Zuimeng, and Wuchan, stood before a map marking the border between Qingyu and Yuzhou.

"I plan to send people to explore further into Yuzhou."

Chen Tianwen got straight to the point.

The situation in Sifang City is currently stable.

He needed to hurry and find Xia Anyu within six months.

But right now they are completely clueless about the situation in Yuzhou.

If he just blindly goes looking for it...

Let alone six months.

Even if you give him a year, or even ten years, he might not be able to find one.

Therefore, he urgently needs to send someone to find out the specific situation in Yuzhou.

This was also the purpose of his gathering everyone here.

However, after Chen Tianwen finished speaking...

The crowd did not immediately agree.

“Yuzhou is too big. With just our few people, we simply cannot investigate all the information.”

The speaker was Elder Yuanzhi of the Wuchan School.

Before the arrival of the Divine Sword Sect, he was among the first to go to Yuzhou to gather information.

He is also the person who has explored the farthest.

He was all too aware of the current situation in Yuzhou.

"That's right, there are only 120 Nascent Soul cultivators in our city right now."

"Thirty of them were taken away by Elder Hongyuan to clean up the sea creature camp."

"More than forty others were sent to patrol and guard the banks of the Lancang River."

"Of the remaining fifty Nascent Soul cultivators, only about twenty are available to handle defense and support duties."

Another cultivator from the Drunken Dream Sect spoke up.

More than a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators are a formidable force.

However, given the current situation, it still seems somewhat constrained.

Chen Tianwen didn't say anything in response to Yuanzhi's rebuttal, but instead asked calmly, "How many people do you need?"

A look of surprise flashed across Yuanzhi's and the elders' eyes.

After exchanging a glance, they said, "One hundred and fifty! We'll need at least one hundred and fifty more Nascent Soul cultivators to gather information quickly enough."

He meant to discourage Chen Tianwen by saying this.

Even if we squeeze every last drop out of Qingzhou, we still won't be able to produce 150 Nascent Soul cultivators!

"One hundred and fifty? No problem!"

Chen Tianwen nodded slightly.

Xiuzhu is currently leading more than 130 Nascent Soul cultivators back, and if things go smoothly, they should arrive in the next two days.

But his words were interpreted quite differently by the others.

One hundred and fifty Nascent Soul cultivators.

Even if we gather all the forces in Qingzhou, we can only muster two hundred Nascent Soul cultivators.

Most of them were in important logistical positions, producing elixirs, refining magical artifacts, and so on.

Only about a hundred of them can be used by the Four Alliance.

In addition, there were mercenaries from the Chifeng Mercenary Group that Chen Tianwen had invited from Yunzhou.

That's how they managed to gather 130 Nascent Soul cultivators.

Now, most of these 130-plus Nascent Soul cultivators have already been dispatched by Chen Tianwen.

Now Chen Tianwen tells them that there are still more than a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators.

This is simply a fantasy.

Nascent Soul cultivators aren't as common as cabbages.

You can have as many as you want.

However, Chen Tianwen didn't care what everyone else thought.

He pointed to the northeast direction on the map, turned to look at He Jiuhong on the side, and said, "Let the twenty people we have go and explore in this direction first. It would be best if they could make contact with the local cultivators in Yuzhou."

Through his prior research, he learned that the sea tribes landed on the west side of Yuzhou, and that the forces that had retreated from Yuzhou had all fled eastward.

The main force of the sea creatures was also concentrated there.

He Jiuhong looked in the direction Chen Tianwen was pointing and nodded.

"If possible, let's lend them a hand. We can get there to help them soon."

Chen Tianwen said in a deep voice.

He Jiuhong nodded heavily and said, "Understood, we will do as the Alliance Leader says!"

After saying this, He Jiuhong cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Chen Tianwen and then respectfully withdrew.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Tianwen turned to Yuanzhi and said, "Elder Yuanzhi, make preparations as well. In the next two days, after the reinforcements arrive, you should arrange for them to disperse to various parts of Yunzhou to gather intelligence."

Upon hearing Chen Tian ask this question, a glint of light flashed in Yuanzhi's eyes.

Support?

There's even backup?

What kind of support team can have 150 people?

A deep sense of doubt flashed in his eyes.

But he didn't ask.

After the series of events that followed, Yuanzhi did not believe that Chen Tianwen would speak without reason.
