Chapter 81: War Begins



The Dragon Clan had never expected that the Qilin camp could remain so patient.

Because theoretically, the power of Qilin plus White Tiger is obviously stronger than that of Xuanwu.

However, Zhuniao and Qilin are old enemies, and there is a high probability that they will support Xuanwu, making it difficult to judge the outcome.

If the Dragon Clan joins the Xuanwu camp again, the balance of war will be overturned immediately. Therefore, the original judgment of the Dragon Clan was that the Xuanwu and Qilin clans would compete to win over the Dragon Clan.

But the actual situation was that the Xuanwu and Zhuniao tribes came to win over the Dragon tribe, while the Qilin tribe never made any statement, as if they didn't care which side the Dragon tribe would side with.

Very strange.

Long Long pondered for a moment and decided to analyze the Qilin camp carefully.

As we all know, the core of the Xuanwu camp is the Black Turtle Ancestor, but the Qilin clan has two cores: one is the Qilin Ancestor, and the other is the White Tiger Ancestor.

The Qilin Ancestor knew very well what Queen Lu Ya had done, which led to the fact that Qilin had no good feelings towards Baihu. It was only because he could not tolerate Qi Weihong, who was supported by Xuangui, to come to power that he had to unite with Baihu.

Considering it from this perspective, the Qilin Ancestor hopes to form an alliance or even a marriage alliance with the Dragon Clan - at least to dilute the role of the White Tiger Clan.

When the diplomatic envoys were leaving, the Kirin Patriarch personally chased them out to "retain" them, which is the best evidence of this matter.

In other words, if there is someone in the Qilin camp who does not want to form an alliance with the Dragon Clan, it should not be the Qilin Ancestor.

So it’s White Tiger’s problem?

Why doesn't the White Tiger want to form an alliance with the Dragon Clan?

Long Long explained the situation to Long Hu and concluded:

"The White Tiger Clan's situation and attitude are currently completely unknown to us. I was careless and overlooked this."

"Now it seems that I should ask your aunt to come and ask."

"Come to think of it, it seems like my aunt hasn't been back for a while." Long Hu said curiously.

"Okay." Long Long sighed helplessly.

Xizhou is the farthest from Dongzhou, so the relationship is the most indifferent and distant, but I think the clan should have hidden people in Xizhou.

It’s better to ask the patriarch.

Long Long turned around and went back to the meeting room, thinking to himself that since I joined the Canglong clan, I have been working hard for the Canglong clan, all for the sake of showing my persistence.

In the hearts of the Canglong ancestor, the clan leader and the elders, I think I should be an outstanding dragon cadre who is "dedicated to the family", right?

When I arrived at the meeting hall, I saw that all the elders of the clan were present, which was rare. The clan leader Qin Beiwang was sitting at the top, but not in the main seat, but in the deputy seat.

And who else could be sitting on the main seat if not the ancestor Canglong?

"Long Long, you've arrived just in time." Qin Beiwang waved for him to come in quickly, "The clan meeting has just begun."

Long Long quickly bowed to the elders and then sat down at the last seat.

As soon as I sat down, I heard a piece of heavy news:

"This morning, we got accurate information." Qin Beiwang said in a deep voice, "The royal court has declared war on Beizhou."

The elders looked at each other but said nothing. It was obvious that they had known about this before.

Long Long was stunned, thinking, no way? Is he so brave?

You're going to go to war with Beizhou without even saying hello to us Dragons? You mean even if you Dragons and Beizhou stand together, you're not strong enough for us to fight, right?

"Not only that, Baihu has already sent troops from Langcang Mountain in Western Province and invaded the desert of Northern Province, and captured thirteen cities within half a day." Qin Beiwang continued.

"I have a question." The Seventh Clan Elder suddenly interrupted, "Isn't there a Hanling Fort in Moye?"

Long Long quickly recalled what he had learned from the clan, and remembered that Hanling Fort was a giant fortress built by the Black Turtle Clan along the Hanling Mountains in the border area west of the desert and adjacent to Xizhou. It was said that there were no less than three thousand nested layers of magic arrays, almost all of which were defensive.

The White Tiger Clan tried many times to remove this thorn, but failed to succeed after sending out large armies several times. This shows how strong the defense of this fort is.

"It is said that most of the defense formation of Hanling Fort has been destroyed." Qin Beiwang signaled with his eyes, and one of the elders immediately stood up and said, "Hanling Fort's defender Guiping had to order the fortress to be defended to the death, so that the surrounding cities were successively conquered and could not be rescued."

The elders looked and found that it was Elder Shi Yao, who was in charge of intelligence work for Xizhou.

"Hanling Fort's defenses have always been strong, and it's also valued by the Black Turtle Clan. Why has most of it been destroyed?" an elder asked in confusion.

"The reason is very simple and unexpected." Shi Yao said calmly, "Lü Yan of the White Tiger Clan has been confirmed to have been promoted to the Immortal Level. After attacking Hanling Fort for half a day, the fortress defenders were unable to resist."

The dragons fell silent after hearing this.

Who was this Lü Yan? He was the eldest brother of Queen Lü Ya. It was said that his bloodline was of a very high grade and his fighting talent was extremely strong. His prestige within the clan was unparalleled.

It is said that his father even wanted to give up the position of clan leader to him, but the White Tiger Ancestor did not allow it, so he gave up.

This may not be easy to understand. Another way to describe it is "White Tiger version of Qiu Changtian".

Long Long once studied his resume carefully and found that this White Tiger monk was indeed mediocre in other aspects, but he was extremely talented in fighting. He was also very murderous and would either kill or injure anyone when fighting with him. It would be more reasonable to say that he was the "White Tiger version of An Zhisu".

However, isn't it said that this guy is still far from returning to his original state? So this is the White Tiger clan's hidden trump card, right? They actually concealed their true strength, how despicable!

The elders around were whispering to each other, and it was obvious that they had the same idea as Long Long.

This Lü Yan is known as the White Tiger Killer Star. His strength is already very strong on the surface, but he is still hiding his trump card in secret. Now he has suddenly become an ancestor. This is really...

"Chief!" Long Long suddenly understood what Shi Yao meant and immediately asked, "The Qilin clan has never approached our Dragon clan to seek an alliance. Could it be that the White Tiger clan's strength is far beyond our expectations?"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, and the expressions on the faces of the elders all changed.

Xizhou is rich in mines, including multi-day crystal stone and moon crystal stone. These two items are similar to the spiritual stones in the human world. They can be used for cultivation and can also be used as currency.

Therefore, Xizhou is the richest in the Donghuang Realm, otherwise the Qilin Emperor Qi Weihuan would not have been so determined to marry a tigress who despised the Vixens.

Now that the White Tiger Killer Star has ascended to the ancestor realm, it has caught everyone off guard. So, does Xizhou have more cards hidden?

For example, the number of monks and military strength in Xizhou far exceeded the expectations of other princes?

Then, it is understandable that the Qilin clan did not seek an alliance with the Dragon clan - because the White Tiger clan believed that instead of sharing the profits with the Dragon clan in order to form an alliance, it would be better to reap the fruits of victory alone.

What an arrogant white tiger!

Many elders turned pale with anger. Although they did not speak, the looks they cast towards the ancestor simply meant "In this case, we might as well surrender to Xuanwu."

The clan leader Qin Beiwang could not act on impulse, so he asked Long Long directly:

"Long Long, you have always been wise, what do you think our dragon clan should do now?"
