37: Chapter 37 The Nation War Begins
After the matter settled, everyone honestly returned to their positions.
But the way they looked at Yuan Chen had already changed.
It was better not to provoke such a ruthless person in the future.
Bai Ning looked astonished.
So, the man who had just come before her actually had such a background.
General Yang Jiuer also couldn't help but take a few more glances at Yuan Chen.
Although they were under the rule of the Xuandu Sect.
She was filled with disgust for the Xuandu Sect.
Every year, the Xuandu Sect managers stationed in the Great Yan Dynasty would ravage many women.
She had also been harassed many times.
If not for Ancestor Huoyun always protecting her, she might have already become a pile of bones by the roadside.
Seeing Yuan Chen teach the Xuandu Sect members a lesson, and watching them act like grandsons, she felt very satisfied.
And Bai Ning finally understood why Luo Li had struck up a conversation with her just now.
So Yuan Chen was her son.
A flash appeared in her eyes.
However...
She turned her head to look at Yuan Chen.
With a background and good looks.
Hmm...
His strength might be a bit low, but they were only Yao Beasts.
If she could truly marry Yuan Chen, it would definitely be the best choice.
Due to the Breath Concealment Technique, the Yuan Chen everyone saw was always at the Golden Core Initial Stage of cultivation.
Yuan Chen pulled Zhao Yaya to his position, while Zhao Zhong followed the Sect members back to the position in the front.
Another hour or so passed.
The banquet finally began.
Luo Xinyi also walked in following Luo Tian.
Luo Tian sat directly below Ancestor Huoyun, and Luo Xinyi came to Yuan Chen's side.
They were all going to participate this time.
The number of experts in Yuan Chen's area had reached about four hundred.
More than half of them were at the Golden Core Initial Stage, fifty or sixty were at the Golden Core Middle Stage, and only five or six were at the Golden Core Late Stage.
As for the Golden Core Peak Stage, there were only some Old Ancestors from the Great Yan Dynasty's princely manors, such as Luo Tian and others.
Since this matter concerned the fate of the nation, the Emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty had no say at all.
Everything was left to Ancestor Huoyun to handle entirely.
After Ancestor Huoyun gave a passionate speech from above, everyone began to do their own thing.
Everyone's tasks were also delivered to their hands by guards.
As expected, you always need to have connections at any time.
Under Luo Li's hint, Ancestor Huoyun directly arranged for Yuan Chen to be by General Yang Jiuer's side to provide protection.
And with him was... Bai Ning.
Good mother, well done.
Besides these two, she even packed up Zhao Yaya and Luo Xinyi and brought them over.
Staying together, they could look out for each other.
For the sake of her son chasing girls, Luo Li didn't even care about her own brother.
However, with Luo Tian's current strength, it would be very difficult for the enemy to succeed in an assassination.
Furthermore, there were only about one or two hundred generals worth protecting in the Great Yan Dynasty, so allocating four to General Yang Jiuer wasn't too many.
The National War would begin in twenty days.
After briefly introducing the rules, Ancestor Huoyun let everyone go back to prepare.
In twenty days, everyone would gather at this location.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Yuan Chen returned directly to the princely manor.
Since the National War would not be short, Yuan Chen spent these days accompanying his wives.
...
Time flew by, and the National War was finally about to begin.
The square next to the imperial palace was already overcrowded.
They were all family members of some generals.
Each general had to head to the border.
Perhaps this parting would be the last time they would ever see each other.
Everyone's face was filled with the sorrow of parting.
At the entrance of the Luo manor, Yuan Chen also said goodbye to each of his wives one by one.
Luo Li waited patiently on the side.
Yuan Chen stepped forward and hugged Yue Ying.
Then he hugged Seventh Princess Huo Yanyan, Ninth Princess Huo Lingling...
Everything was proceeding in a normal fashion.
Until Yuan Chen walked to the very end and pulled Xue Lin into his arms.
Luo Li and Yuan Ji, who were waiting, directly spat out a mouthful of soda.
They looked at the two hugging each other, dumbfounded.
When did this happen?
Xue Lin turned her head, dodging Luo Li's direct gaze.
Getting together with her good sister's son.
It was truly a bit embarrassing.
Yuan Chen, however, didn't care at all.
He said comfortingly.
"It's nothing. We are true love, and true love is invincible."
Yuan Ji secretly spat.
True love, my ass!
Yuan Chen chuckled and waved at everyone.
He left with his two wives.
He had been staying at home these days.
Besides communicating feelings with his wives.
He would go to find Xue Lin under the guise of seeing his son.
After going back and forth, he really succeeded.
And the child was also, unsurprisingly, given to Xue Lin.
Now Xue Lin no longer had to envy Yuan Chen's other wives who were all sporting big bellies.
Luo Li looked at Xue Lin with a strange expression.
"Xue Lin, you really are..."
Xue Lin gave an embarrassed smile.
"...That's great. I was originally thinking that if you married someone else in the future, we might not see each other for a long time, but now it's good."
"You don't know, I was even thinking of asking Yuan Ji to marry you before, but Yuan Ji didn't agree."
Yuan Chen's father had a dark face.
"Stop talking!"
Now that the other party had already become his son's wife, why mention this again?
He knew they were close sisters who shared everything.
But could they please consider others' feelings?
Didn't they see the other daughters-in-law looking like they were watching a good show?
"Giggle!"
Luo Li laughed twice.
Seeing that Luo Li didn't blame her, Xue Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
When Yuan Chen arrived at the square with his two wives, basically all the participants were in place.
Yuan Chen came behind General Yang Jiuer.
Not long after, a bell rang from within the Great Yan Dynasty imperial palace.
Following the sound, a white-robed old man flew high into the sky.
For visual effect, he directly enlarged his body to several dozen meters tall.
After the bell stopped, the old man looked down.
After feeling everyone's gazes focused on him, he nodded with satisfaction.
He was Zhu Zhen, the person in charge of the Xuandu Sect in the Great Yan Dynasty.
This war between the two countries was the responsibility of him and Mark from the Damo Dynasty.
When the Sect gained the National Destiny, the two of them would also receive a large amount of rewards.
After a moment of silence, he spoke slowly.
"All unrelated personnel must withdraw and leave the territory of the Great Yan and Damo Dynasties."
"Those above the Nascent Soul stage, except for Ancestor Huoyun and Old Ancestor Mo Li, are not allowed to enter during the National War. If discovered, they will be dealt with according to the laws of the Xuandu Sect..."
Yuan Chen listened carefully.
Even though he had heard the rules from his mother, hearing them this time still felt interesting.
Old Ancestor Mo Li was the Old Ancestor of the Damo Dynasty, and like Ancestor Huoyun, he was at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.
However, although the two could stay here.
They could only guard the capital and could not leave a single step.
Just like the general in Chinese chess.
Only when one side pushes to the other's imperial palace could the two act.
However, by then, the defending side would basically be powerless to save the situation.
It would just be a death struggle.
With a great formation composed of hundreds of thousands of troops, with Golden Core experts as the eye of the formation, even a Nascent Soul Early Stage Old Ancestor would be unable to reverse the situation.
After Zhu Zhen finished speaking, crowds of people flew up from all over the Great Yan Dynasty.
Yuan Chen's parents were also among them.
As well as his wives.
Yue Ying and the others were not people of the Great Yan Dynasty and were not qualified to participate.
Zhu Zhen nodded.
He took everyone and left together.
A transparent barrier in the sky between the two countries slowly closed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The National War! Begins!"
