After coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, Li Xuan went straight back home.
He did not choose to hide it and directly told his aunt that he was going to the provincial capital and recounted what happened in the Ten Schools League.
Before Li Yun could say anything, Xu Kexin came up and said, "Brother, are you saying that you defeated Gu Haitang in the Ten Schools League, and now the city lord wants to personally escort you to the provincial capital?"
"That's right."
Li Xuan nodded.
Puff~!
Xu Kexin just looked up to the sky and laughed out loud.
Li Yun looked at Li Xuan with complicated eyes: "Be careful on the road, and make sure you come back safely."
"Don't worry, the city lord will be with you the whole time, there won't be any danger."
After listening to Li Xuan's words, Li Yun nodded slightly.
"Mom, you wouldn't really believe my brother's bragging, would you?" Xu Kexin stopped laughing.
"Your brother wouldn't lie to me."
Li Yun said affirmatively, even though this might sound like a fantasy to her, she still believed that Li Xuan would not lie to her.
Li Xuan immediately gave Xu Kexin a brain-crushing slap: "Do you not believe that your brother defeated Gu Haitang, or do you not believe that the city lord personally escorted him?"
"Lulu...I don't believe it!"
Xu Kexin covered her head and stuck out her tongue.
At this time, the sound of a car stopping was heard downstairs. A black commercial vehicle loaded with special alloy steel plates stopped downstairs.
Li Xuan came to the window and saw the city lord and Gu Haitang getting out of the car.
"If you don't believe it, come and see." Li Xuan said, turning around.
"I won't fall for your trick." Xu Kexin made a face.
Hey!
Li Xuan stepped forward with lightning speed and straightened her face with his hands. Then he quickly said goodbye to his aunt and walked downstairs.
"Mom, look at him!"
Xu Kexin frowned and was about to complain when she saw that Li Xuan had actually left.
This time, she also went to the window curiously and looked down. When she saw the two familiar figures downstairs, she was completely stunned.
Soon, Li Xuan also came down. He deliberately said to Gu Haitang, "You performed very well in the Ten Schools League, but it's a pity that you met me."
To Gu Haitang, these words sounded like a deliberate provocation. She angrily said, "Hmph, don't be so complacent. I'll win you back soon!"
After saying that, she got into the car angrily.
Li Xuan raised his head and glanced at Xu Kexin, who was already shocked by the window. After winking at her, he got into the car with the city lord.
"Mom! My brother...what he said is true!"
Xu Kexin turned around in disbelief, only to find Xu Yun standing there motionless with a worried look on her face.
"Alas, your brother...has fallen into their old ways."
…
The specially made black business car had a smooth journey through Beining City, and even the city gates were opened for them in advance.
At this time, the outside of the city gate was like a bottomless giant mouth against the backdrop of the night. The black commercial vehicle drove out of the city as if it was diving into a bottomless abyss.
However, Li Xuan and Gu Haitang in the car were calm. With the strongest person in Beining City, the City Lord, there, the car was even safer than in the city.
Soon after the car drove out of the city, monsters and demons began to approach the car rapidly in the distance.
Bang!
Li Xuan only heard a muffled sound, and then there was no more movement in the distance.
This made him sigh in his heart at the terrifying strength of the high-level strong men. He didn't even see how the city lord made his move.
"Over the years, the situation in the occupied areas has become increasingly severe. In the past, it was difficult to encounter monsters on these main roads."
The city lord sitting in the front row sighed.
Li Xuan usually watched the news, so he naturally knew that the territory of the demon clan was constantly expanding, and the casualties on the border between China and the demon clan's territory were also increasing year by year.
As a result, more monsters and demonic beasts were born in the occupied areas within the human territory.
"Is there no way to wipe out the demonic forces within the human territory in one fell swoop? If the five strongest masters take action, it shouldn't be a difficult task, right?"
Li Xuan raised his own questions.
In addition to occupying a large area of territory, the demons also dug through caves in the wilderness areas of various human provinces, turning them into occupied areas.
Although the levels of monsters and beasts in the occupied areas of human territory are not high, they still pose a great threat to low-level humans.
"In fact, the top combat power of the human race and the demon race has always been in a delicate balance. A single move can affect the entire body!"
As the city lord, Gu Qing naturally knew much more than Li Xuan, and he was also happy to provide some scientific knowledge to the most talented genius in Beining City.
"So the top fighters on both sides have fixed positions to defend, and no one dares to act rashly."
When facing Li Xuan, the taciturn him became very talkative, and even Gu Haitang beside him was secretly surprised.
"Of course, this is not the main reason. Preserving the occupied areas was also a result of many considerations by the top leaders."
"First of all, I want to remind the people in the city to be prepared for danger and not to get too comfortable. We humans are at a critical juncture in our battle with the demons. If the balance of top combat power is disrupted."
"Either the human race's territory shrinks again, resulting in massive casualties; or the human race counterattacks the demon race's territory!"
Li Xuan nodded slightly. It had been a long time since a war broke out between the human and demon races.
It seems that this is because the top combat power of both sides is approaching, and neither side is sure of winning.
"Secondly, the monsters and beasts in these occupied areas can also provide you newcomers with a large amount of experience points and combat experience."
As he spoke, Gu Qing raised his hand slightly again, and a thunderclap fell in the distance, and another powerful monster was split into pieces.
Li Xuan also agreed with this point. The main battlefield where humans and demons fought each other was much more brutal than the occupied areas here. Most humans of low levels could only be used as cannon fodder.
There is little room for growth, and the low-level monsters and beasts in the occupied areas have indeed given birth to many powerful humans.
Although experience points can be gained from dungeons, it requires a large amount of human resources.
Therefore, those dungeons are generally used for true geniuses and family children to gain experience. Ordinary players rarely have any chance to enter the dungeons.
The car was driving fast in the dark. Li Xuan asked the city lord a few more questions and fell into a deep sleep in the second half of the night.
When he opened his eyes again, the car had arrived at Jingzhou City, the capital of Dongshan Province.
