"The defense plan will be overseen by Luo You and Mo Wujiang to ensure the safety of Ash City during the search for spiritual materials. Miss Panya will be in charge."
"I hope everyone can stand together through thick and thin and defeat the enemy we face. To this end, the gang's long-sealed warehouse will be opened to everyone. The elixirs and magical artifacts that previously required accumulating merits to obtain will now have their requirements lowered, and we can even allow credit!"
Before saying this, everyone was a bit absent-minded, even sleepy. After hearing this, almost everyone perked up.
"War! War! War!"
It's unclear who started it, but most people quickly followed suit, as if they were infected by a demon.
"War! War! War!"
Lu Gang, the Black Hand, looked around with satisfaction and then said, "The newly joined members will be assigned to Huang Yuanlong's command in this operation!"
Tsk, we were working quite well together with Li Si, but then they dumped us on Huang Yuanlong again... Chen Jing pondered. It seems they're wary of Li Si and don't want her power to grow too strong.
Li Si and the Black Hand Lu Gang seem to have a strained relationship. When they faced a crisis underground, this high priestess didn't even bother to light a candle and ask if the Black Hand Lu Gang would come to her rescue...
After the operation was announced, everyone dispersed to find their respective leaders.
Chen Jing and the others followed Huang Yuanlong to the room next door.
He Lili didn't come along, seemingly because she was at the Dan Realm cultivation level and wasn't considered a regular member. Meanwhile, Jasmine, who had only shown herself briefly before, joined the group.
Zhang Taoying didn't seem embarrassed at all; instead, she quietly greeted Chen Jingdao and Li Ai.
To Chen Jing's surprise, Huang Yuanlong was accompanied by only the five of them.
"So this strongest hunter in Ash City was all alone before?" Chen Jing thought to himself.
Huang Yuanlong waved to Chen Jing and the others: "Sit down."
Li Ai casually pulled up a chair and sat down. After changing into cleaner, more practical clothes, she asked, "Is it just the few of us?"
"Good finishing blow." Chen Jing sat down, controlling his expression.
“Of course it’s not just you few,” Huang Yuanlong said. “There are two more legions, but they won’t be under my command for a while.”
"What do you mean, 'later'?" Li Ai asked curiously.
“At night,” Huang Yuanlong said expressionlessly.
Chen Jing coughed, maintaining a serious expression.
Dao Nan also asked, "Are they ghost soldiers at night?"
Huang Yuanlong rested his chin on his hand: "No, they are soldiers that only exist in dreams."
...Was he telling lame jokes to show off his humor? Chen Jing looked at Huang Yuanlong's expression but couldn't tell.
Huang Yuanlong's expression was like a sculpture, never changing.
“The soldiers in my dream don’t know how to fight,” Huang Yuanlong said. “We need you guys to get things done.”
