East Frontier, Juque City.
Gu Heng gave a few spirit stones and then entered the city.
He thought about it for several days, and finally decided to go out and see this new world which had changed a lot.
After all, there was nothing to do if he continued to stay in the deserted city. Apart from being served by Xiaobai every day, there was not much change. Gu Heng thought that he could not continue to lie around and sleep like this. The outside world had changed drastically and was completely different from the past. How could he still stay at home?
So he wants to come out and see the world.
He left a note at home, telling Xiaobai that he would be going out and might not come home, but Xiaobai would still have to do the necessary cleaning. If anyone in the deserted city looked for him, Xiaobai would be the one to come forward.
Gu Heng is assured that he can do the job.
As soon as he stepped into the bustling street, Gu Heng was immediately attracted by the shops on both sides of the street.
There are all kinds of shops lining both sides of the street, selling everything. This Juque City is the largest city in the entire East Xinjiang. The alliance headquarters is nearby. In comparison, both Yunling City and Riyan Imperial City are far inferior.
The deserted city is even less big.
"Tsk tsk."
Gu Heng looked at the scene, shook his head and sighed.
This place is worthy of being the base camp of the East Xinjiang Alliance. It is indeed as solid as a rock and its prosperity is unprecedented.
However, this city was also ravaged by war. On the way here, Gu Heng could see dried blood and countless potholes on the outer wall, and something similar to a city defense artillery array was continuously in operation...
The corpses of the monsters outside the city have not been cleaned up yet.
Gu Heng randomly found a restaurant, ordered some snacks, sat down, and began to think about where to go next.
"Hey, did you hear?"
"What did you hear?"
Gu Heng silently looked towards the table next to him. Four or five East Xinjiang Alliance practitioners with identity badges were sitting in a circle, drinking and eating meat, muttering things like "the big one is yet to come" and "the Xuantian Realm is in danger".
Oh, it seems like there is something I can listen to quietly.
He pretended to be indifferent, but he had already pricked up his ears to make sure he heard every conversation at the table.
"I have a friend who said that those immortals from outside the world have even bigger plans!"
"…That's it?"
No one exclaimed, but their eyes became filled with disgust.
"What do you mean?"
"Everyone knows that they have other plans! Didn't you hear what the Immortal said that day? All these disasters and troubles are blamed on the Demon Realm!"
"In that case, do you think they will stop here?"
"Also, if this was all done by the demon world, and someone suddenly cut in and caused trouble, wouldn't the demon world be angry and send more powerful guys?"
Some practitioners gave a clear and logical analysis, and everyone nodded in agreement.
There are many people who think he is right.
Indeed, although everyone has never seen the Demon Realm, they have definitely heard of it. The war among the five realms in the ancient times was caused by the Demon Realm. Even after so long, there are records and evidence to prove it.
Now, there is a "Little Xuantian Realm" that has ruined the Demon Realm's good deeds.
Could the demon world possibly let this go?
The answer is obvious -
Absolutely impossible!
"What should I do?"
Everyone looked sad.
The Demon Realm hasn't even made a move yet, but just a few random gestures have caused chaos in the Xuantian Realm. If a strong master from the Demon Realm really comes, wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with?
"Alas, who knows? But if there is really trouble, our great Xuanxian-level guardian will not remain indifferent!"
Most of the practitioners in the East Frontier Alliance now have a more peaceful state of mind.For no other reason.
It's because the person in charge of Dongjiang now is a Xuanxian!
Ever since the immortal-level practitioners reappeared, the immortal-level cultivation system also quickly reappeared and spread throughout the world. Soon, they understood what the mysterious immortal level was.
With such a powerful immortal in charge, what could be so scary if the demons came?
Furthermore.
No matter what the Qingquan Xuanxian came for, Dongjiang was saved at least. Now the Evil Cultivator Alliance and the demon army were all killed in pieces, like dogs that have lost their homes. It can be said that Dongjiang has finally escaped from the dilemma of life and death!
"That's right. Besides, that Master Xuanxian is already merciful enough. Haven't you heard that the two great garrisons in the Southern Wilderness and the Western Region are absolutely brutal and ruthless?"
Regarding what happened in the Southern Wilderness and the Western Regions, I believe that other people must have heard about it, so they were all very fortunate to think that Qingquan Xuanxian of the Eastern Frontier was so "merciful".
"…I see."
Gu Heng was slightly shocked when he heard this, but he remained calm.
Although I had heard that the outside world had changed a lot, I didn't expect it to change in such a way - the Xuantian Realm was ruled by the "Little Xuantian Realm". It makes sense, right?
It sounds weird.
What the people at that table talked about was quite interesting, but Gu Heng still failed to get some key information from it, such as where he should go next.
In fact, it's not that he doesn't have a goal. For example, going to the Demon Realm is one of the obvious hints given in the system tasks. But now he wants to go to the Demon Realm, which is a bit beyond his ability.
So Gu Heng had to settle for the next best thing.
Sudden.
Outside the restaurant, there were extremely obvious footsteps.
The crisp sound of weapons colliding with each other made Gu Heng frown, and he turned his head to look.
A group of tall and mighty soldiers wearing black armor were walking into the restaurant.
Wow, so majestic!
Gu Heng's eyes widened.
He also wanted to try out this set of black armor, as he felt that it was of extraordinary quality. However, looking at its weight, he was afraid that it was not something a delicate-skinned pretty boy like him could wear.
These people are definitely experienced practitioners, full of murderous aura, and you can tell at first glance that they are very fierce and domineering.
Gu Heng has always had good experience in judging people.
The leader had a face full of flesh and a pair of fierce eyes.
"Where are the practitioners from the East Frontier Alliance?!"
He roared in a gruff voice, causing all the guests in the restaurant to look at him sideways.
Gu Heng was not afraid, but stared at them with interest.
"Here!"
"I wonder what your Excellency wants me to do?"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than twenty practitioners in the restaurant came to the front hall and bowed to the black-armored soldier.
"Well, it happened suddenly. There is an order from above that the demon world is about to be annihilated. The East Frontier Alliance needs to select talented and potential newcomers now!"
"Master Xuanxian has ordered that all practitioners must participate!"
The leading soldier looked around and finally fixed his gaze on Gu Heng. His face darkened. "You! As a cultivator of the East Frontier Alliance, are you planning to ignore the decree of Master Qingquan Xuanxian?!"
After being yelled at like that, Gu Heng trembled all over.
Only then did he remember that he did have the identity token given to him by the old monk hanging around his waist!
Shit, I originally hung this token to facilitate my travels in and out of the city, so that I wouldn't be restricted everywhere like ordinary people. It's a convenient thing...
What happened is that now this thing has been installed.
Is he going to be conscripted?
