Chapter 548 I Need Someone to Help Me Cultivate
Tianyuan City, City Lord's Mansion.
Zhang Yiyuan was sitting in his study reading official documents. There was a thick stack of intelligence reports from various places on the table.
The purge of the ancient seal has entered its final stage, and the remaining few are all tough nuts to crack.
Although the Avengers were powerful, Jiang Xuan and others had even broken through to the True Monarch level under Lin Chen's guidance.
However, the later the sealed objects become more difficult to deal with, and every attack must be fully prepared, otherwise casualties may result.
Zhang Yiyuan frowned, his fingers tapping lightly on the official document, his mind racing with the next steps.
Wu Huan stood to the side, holding another stack of official documents in his hands, not daring to breathe loudly.
At this moment, the void cracked open, and Lin Chen walked out from inside.
Zhang Yiyuan was taken aback for a moment, put down the official document, stood up, and cupped his hands in a fist salute: "Young Master Lin."
Lin Chen sat down opposite him, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said:
"Lord Zhang, how many Ancient Seals are left?"
Zhang Yiyuan picked up a list from the table and handed it to Lin Chen.
"There are seven more, and they are the toughest nuts to crack. The weakest of the sealed creatures is at the peak of True Monarch cultivation, and the strongest one is at the half-step Saint Venerable cultivation."
He paused, his voice deepening slightly:
"The Avengers tried three times, and failed to break through all three times."
Jian Shisan was slightly injured, Long Zaitian's magic weapon was damaged, and Jiang Xuan's right hand was split open again.
Lin Chen took the list and glanced at it.
Seven seals, seven locations, seven ancient demons at the True Lord level.
The list clearly states who is in which position, what level of cultivation, what attributes, and what weaknesses they have.
Zhang Yiyuan is always meticulous in his work.
Lin Chen raised his hand, tearing open the void, and Lü Bu walked out from the crack.
He wore a red battle robe embroidered with black cloud patterns, held a halberd in his hand, walked up to Lin Chen, knelt on one knee, and clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"My lord!"
Lin Chen looked down at Lü Bu and handed him the list.
"Fengxian, you are to personally resolve these issues, leaving no one alive."
Lu Bu took the list, stood up, and clasped his hands in a fist salute: "Yes, sir!"
He turned around, took a step, and disappeared into the void.
The movements were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Looking at the closing crack, Zhang Yiyuan felt a mix of emotions.
The monster that the Avengers couldn't defeat after a long battle was easily dealt with by Lin Chen with just one of his men—that's the difference.
Lin Chen withdrew his gaze, looked at Zhang Yiyuan, picked up the cup of tea, and took another sip.
"Lord Zhang, notify all major powers that the Tower of Babel will open in one month."
Let the leaders of the major powers personally lead their teams, bringing their elites—no limit on the number, but make sure no one is just filling in the numbers.
Zhang Yiyuan clasped his hands in a salute, his voice booming:
"I will take care of it right away. Within a month, the teams from all the major forces will definitely arrive."
Lin Chen nodded, stood up, and tore through the void to leave.
Zhang Yiyuan stood in the study, looking at the closing crack, and took a deep breath.
He turned and walked to his desk, picked up his pen and began to write a letter.
……
Hehuan Valley.
Lin Chen emerged from the void rift and landed on the plaza in front of the Hehuan Palace.
Yan Ruyu was sitting on the steps drinking tea, her white dress fluttering, her white hair as white as snow, smiling sweetly, like a young wife waiting for her husband to come home.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Chen come out.
"You're back?"
Lin Chen nodded.
"Is the matter settled?"
Lin Chen nodded again.
Yan Ruyu glanced at Lin Chen and noticed that his expression was not quite right, so she stopped smiling.
He put down his teacup, stood up, walked to Lin Chen, and reached out to touch his face.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Chen sat down next to Yan Ruyu and remained silent.
Yan Ruyu didn't urge him, and just sat there waiting for Lin Chen to speak.
The sea of flowers swayed gently in the wind, the stream flowed quietly under the moonlight, and the laughter of girls drifted from afar, like silver bells, floating back and forth in the night breeze.
After a long while, Lin Chen spoke, his voice somewhat deep.
"Beyond the void, besides hordes of extraterrestrial creatures, there is an unknown entity spying on this world."
Yan Ruyu paused, holding the teacup, and almost dropped it.
"I cannot sense His exact location, nor can I sense His cultivation level. I cannot see through Him, I cannot see through Him at all."
Yan Ruyu's face changed, turning as white as paper, and her voice became strained.
"Even you are no match for him?"
Lin Chen didn't answer, but his silence itself was an answer.
He picked up his teacup and took a sip. The tea was already cold, and it was so bitter that he frowned.
Yan Ruyu also fell silent. Neither of them spoke, and they just sat there.
The sea of flowers is still swaying, the stream is still flowing, and the girls' laughter is still echoing.
Everything was fine, but everything has changed.
After a long while, Lin Chen suddenly spoke.
"Yan Ruyu, make arrangements for me. I need two thousand girls for cultivation tonight."
Yan Ruyu put down her teacup, stood up, and patted off non-existent dust from her skirt.
"I'll arrange it."
After saying that, she turned and left, her steps quick, leaving a shallow trail on the ground with the hem of her skirt.
Lin Chen watched Yan Ruyu's retreating figure without saying a word.
-
night.
In front of the Hehuan Hall, two thousand girls stood in neat rows, forming a square formation, like two thousand green flowers.
They wore dresses of various colors—red, yellow, purple, and white—and together under the moonlight, they formed a colorful river.
Some were excited, their faces flushed, their eyes shining – these were things they had experienced.
Some are curious, looking around, finding everything new and exciting, things they've never experienced before.
Some were filled with anticipation, biting their lips and staring intently at the tightly closed door of the Hehuan Hall; these were people who had been eagerly waiting for a long time.
Yan Ruyu stood on the steps and glanced around.
His gaze swept across each girl's face, from left to right and from right to left, like a gentle knife.
She spoke, her voice not loud, but everyone could hear her clearly.
"Tonight, you only have one thing to do—cooperate with Young Master Lin's cultivation, empty your minds, and cooperate wholeheartedly."
She paused, her gaze growing even more somber.
"No matter what happens, you can't give up halfway, understand?"
Two thousand girls responded in unison, "Understood!"
The sounds were clear and crisp, like two thousand orioles singing at the same time, echoing across the square.
