796: Chapter Confirmation of Covenant

"Yue Shan, do you think we will win?"

Inside a spacious yet somewhat solemn room at the Great Xia Martial Security Bureau headquarters, Li Mingxuan sat on a chair, tightly gripping his communicator.

Looking at the message Lan Cang had sent him on the screen, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of worry and contemplation appeared in his eyes, as he fell into deep thought.

As Prince Wuan Lan Cang's Disciple, he naturally received confirmed news of the King Realm Expert conscription immediately.

However, Lan Cang did not force him to make any decision, but only gave him two choices in a peaceful yet solemn manner.

One was to remain in the Great Xia Alliance, guarding the land they lived on, ensuring its stability amidst the potential turmoil that might arise in the future.

The second was to join the army, heading to the battlefield full of unknowns and dangers, to confront the challenges and crises that might come.

Li Mingxuan chose the second option without any hesitation.

He clearly understood the principle that "when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact." The current situation was critical; if everyone retreated, the Great Xia Alliance would surely fall into an abyss of no return.

Moreover, with his current status and strength in the Great Xia Alliance, if he chose not to go, even as the Prince Wuan's only Disciple, he would inevitably be talked about in private.

Although he himself was not afraid of these rumors and did not care about others' opinions, he did not want his Master Lan Cang to bear the reputation of being a poor judge of character; he wanted to uphold his Master's reputation and contribute his own strength to the Great Xia Alliance.

"The Kunlun Mountains are very dangerous; even I am not entirely confident!"

Just as Li Mingxuan was deep in thought, Yue Shan, who was within him, spoke in response.

Yue Shan naturally sensed Li Wuji's summons; the summons was like an invisible force constantly surging in his heart.

However, he had once received Li Wuji's command to protect Li Mingxuan no matter what happened.

This promise forced him to suppress his inner impulse and stay, even though he desperately wanted to answer the summons.

Although he had a way to leave a means for his main body to go, the current situation was simply too complex, with no definite news from either the Dream Master, the alien races, or even the Yao Race.

If his main body left and any accident happened to Li Mingxuan, he would be held fully responsible, and his guilt would be unforgivable!

"Is that so? But even so, I must go. Before that, though, I still have somewhere to go."

Li Mingxuan said with a determined expression, then turned and walked out the door.

His steps were steady, and his eyes revealed a sense of resolve.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw four people standing quietly at the entrance, seemingly having just arrived.

When these four saw him come out, their gazes were fixed on him, their eyes filled with concern and worry.

"Brother Xuan!"

These four were Zhao Qianjun, Qin Tian, and the brothers Shao Long and Shao Hu.

They usually Cultivate with Li Mingxuan and had just learned the internal news from the Martial Security Bureau, noting the deployment of King Realm Experts from the Martial Security Bureau headquarters.

"I'll be out for a while. You all should Cultivate well here and strive to Breakthrough to the King Realm as soon as possible."

Li Mingxuan looked at the four, a slight smile on his face. He knew the purpose of their visit, but he didn't give them a chance to speak.

During this period of shared Cultivation, all four had reached the Martial Lord Peak Realm, just one step away from the King Realm.

As long as they continued to work hard, given time, Breakthrough to the King Realm would not be difficult.

After speaking, he gently patted the shoulders of the four, an action filled with encouragement and expectation, then strode out.

Zhao Qianjun watched Li Mingxuan's departing back, his lips moving as if he still wanted to say something, but Qin Tian stopped him.

Qin Tian said with a serious expression, "This operation involves at least King Realm Experts. What do you think you can do if you go?"

Qin Tian looked at the gradually receding figure, his hands clenched into fists, his face full of helplessness, yet there was nothing he could do.

"Listen to Brother Xuan. With the Nine Lords and other adults leaving, the Yao Race and alien races are very likely to take advantage of the void. We will wait here, guarding Great Xia, until they return."

After leaving the Prince Wuan headquarters, Li Mingxuan returned unimpeded to the place where he had lived for over a decade.

It was a place full of memories, every corner holding bits and pieces of his past.

He slowly walked into the familiar room, looking at the items arranged exactly as he remembered, and fell into deep thought.

The memories were like a tide, constantly surging into his mind.

However, it wasn't long before he came back to his senses, walking with steady steps to an altar.

On the altar was a black and white photograph. The person in the photo had a kind face, with a determined and benevolent look in his eyes; it was Li Wuji.

"Brother, I've come back to see you again. But this time, I might not come back alive, but I have no regrets."

Li Mingxuan looked at the familiar face in the photo, his eyes involuntarily reddening.

He recalled the moments he had shared with Li Wuji, those memories like warm sunlight, illuminating his heart.

"Brother, you told me that in life and in action, one must follow their true heart. Master has been very good to me, and I don't want to disappoint him. I also want to protect the place we have always lived.

So, Brother, bless me."

Li Mingxuan said softly, his voice full of piety and determination.

After speaking, he composed himself and began to clean, wanting to make the place even tidier.

But the moment he turned, Li Wuji in the photo seemed to glance at him, though no one noticed it.

And what Li Mingxuan didn't know was that when the Great Xia Alliance's deployment plan for this King Realm Expert mobilization was announced, it immediately caused an uproar within the Alliance.

Because the departure of the Nine Lords, Prince Wuan, and many other King Realm Experts might maintain superficial stability for a short period, but over time, the hidden dangers would inevitably be discovered.

Moreover, with such a large-scale mobilization of King Realm Experts, it was simply impossible to completely conceal it from the outside world.

Rather than being discovered later and causing greater panic, it was better to simply make it public.

Furthermore, to prevent the Yao Race and alien races from taking advantage of the void, the Great Xia Alliance had to enter a state of Level 1 combat readiness (Level 1 Combat Readiness), remaining vigilant at all times to guard against potential enemies.

However, since these messages were released, the Great Xia Alliance naturally had countermeasures to appease the populace.

Just as the Great Xia Alliance was preparing, the Great Eagle Alliance and the Great Bear Alliance also responded and agreed to dispatch experts.

This relieved the Great Xia side, as the pressure would have been too great if they were alone.

Fortunately, those two major Human Race Alliances were not disregarding the future of the Human Race, and they agreed to rendezvous on the outskirts of the Kunlun Mountains.
