Sunrise and sunset, sunset and sunrise, time day after day, in the blink of an eye, seven days have passed.

Dusk had faded, night had crept down, darkness had gradually enveloped the land, and a full moon slowly rose and hung in the dark night sky.

The cold starlight and moonlight swayed down, and the heaven and earth were cold and lonely.

The wind howled on the Black Wind Ridge, and on the top of the towering Baiyun City Wall, teams of guards with distinct armor and blades patrolling back and forth.

"Hey, it's a full moon night again!The Lunatic Cult should be out to kill people and slaughter the village again!" Ma Feng sighed slightly from the city gate.

"Not should, but for sure!" Elder Yan Jiu looked at the full moon in the night sky, and said in a deep voice: "On the night of the full moon, the yin qi is the heaviest, and it is the best time to collect the soul. The Lunatic Worship Sect will definitely kill people and slaughter villages everywhere, and we in Baiyun City must be solemn and strengthen our vigilance!"

"Well, the order has been given, and the number of guards has tripled compared to usual. The Right Protector Ma Feng paused and said, "But the Lunatic Sect should only slaughter the village, so it won't attack our White Cloud City, right?"

"This is not necessarily, our Baiyun City has not been built for a long time, and the foundation is not stable, so it is easy to be underestimated. The reason why the Lunatic Cult did not attack the city was because the losses were large and not cost-effective. However, if our Baiyun City is despised by them, it is not impossible for us to surprise and attack!" Ink-robed elder Yan Jiu said with a solemn face: "Now is the critical moment for the city lord's retreat, and we can't afford to slack off in the slightest. ”

As Yan Jiu, the ink-robed elder was speaking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps under the stone steps of the city wall behind him, and a guard quickly ran up.

"Elder Qiqi Yan, Ma Protector, the envoy of Qingguan City asks to see!" the guard knelt on one knee and bowed to report.

"Qingguan City is the closest to our Baiyun City, on this full moon night, could it be-" Right Protector Ma Feng was shocked.

"Pass him in!" said the ink-robed elder Yan Jiu in a deep voice.

"Subordinates obey!" the guard immediately got up and gave the order.

After a while, the envoy of Qingguan City was brought in.

"Qi Qi two adults, this is a letter from the city lord of my family, please take a look!" The envoy of Qingguan City immediately handed over the letter.

Ink-robed elder Yan Jiu took the letter, immediately opened it, swept his eyes over it, and immediately frowned.

"What? What did the letter say?" asked Ma Feng, the Right Protector.

"The Lunatic Worship Sect has already begun to slaughter villages and kill people, thirteen villages in the northern suburbs of Qingguan City have been slaughtered one after another, and blood is flowing like a river!" Ink-robed elder Yan Jiu's eyes were extremely solemn, he handed the letter to Ma Feng, and said in a deep voice: "This is not yet the second half of the night, it is estimated that at least thirty or fifty villages will suffer on the entire full moon night. The Qingguan City Lord is organizing a hero conference and invites us Baiyun City to participate as well. ”

"So many people have died, the Moon Worship Cultist is really murderous!" Ma Feng, the right protector, took the letter and scanned it with his gaze, "Elder Yan, the invitation of Qingguan City, are we-"

"No!" Ink-robed elder Yan Jiu shook his head slightly, and said to the Qingguan City envoy: "You go back and tell your city lord that we in Baiyun City may not be able to participate in this hero conference!"

"Why is this?" the Qingguan City envoy was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion: "The previous two times Baiyun City participated, why didn't you suddenly participate this time?

"Hey, it's not that we don't participate, it's that the demon beasts attacked the city a few days ago, and our Baiyun City suffered heavy losses!" Go back and ask your city lord for me, and ask him to forgive!"

"This—" The messenger hesitated and said, "Well, since Baiyun City is inconvenient, then I'll go back and report to our city lord." Although I can't participate this time, I hope that in the next Hero Conference, you Baiyun City can help our Qingguan City!"

"It must be!" said the ink-robed elder Yan Jiu.

"Farewell!"

The envoy of Qingguan City arched his hand, and after saying a word, he immediately left Baiyun City, and quickly whipped his horse in the direction of Qingguan City.

"Elder Yan, why is this?" said the right protector Ma Feng: "Last time the green wolf attacked the city, although the scale was not small, our Baiyun City actually didn't have much loss. ”

"It's not much of a loss, that's because the city lord made a move. Elder Yan Jiu said: "Now that the city lord is in retreat, we should put the city lord first!"

"But if we refuse, will the Qingguan City side be dissatisfied?"

"It shouldn't be!" Elder Yan Jiu said, "The Heroes Conference is a righteous act, not an obligation. It relies on the voluntariness of fellow martial artists, not coercion. ”

The Heroes Conference brings together heroes from all walks of life to defeat the red-robed detachment of the Moon Worship Cult. After all, the methods of the Lunatic Cult were extremely ferocious and terrifying, and the surrounding villages could only unite, and each village sent several Innate Realm martial artists to encircle and suppress the Lunatic Cultists. Of course, not everyone is here to intercept the Lunatic Cultists. Some of them went for the martial arts cheats.

You must know that the martial arts cheats are divided into four levels, and the one above the Xuanhuang of Heaven and Earth is the level of divine skill. Divine power is out of reach for more than 99 percent of the people. Therefore, most of the martial artists are cultivating the four levels of Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang. Among them, the yellow-level cheats are the lowest level, and from low to high, they are the Xuan level, the earth level and the heaven level. In some small countries of the Hundred Frontier Countries, most of the martial artists are cultivating the Yellow Rank Secret Book, and most of the martial artists in the middle power are cultivating the Xuan Rank Secret Book. In the Central Plains Martial Arts, many martial artists practice ground-level martial arts secrets. Therefore, many people are eager to obtain a Heavenly Rank Treasure Book.

And by killing the Lunatic Cultists, you can get the Heavenly Skill Book from the organizer of the Hero Conference, which will naturally attract many martial artists to participate in the Hero Conference.

It can be said that some people come for morality, some for profit, and some for both morality and mixed interests. In short, there are heroes from all walks of life for various reasons, and the scale is quite huge.

"Why don't we send some people over and make a point?" suggested Ma Feng, the Right Protector.

"No!" Ink-robed elder Yan Jiu shook his head and said, "Not long after our Baiyun City was first built, there were not many innate realm martial artists, if we divided some, if something happened, it would not be good." ”

"The innate realm is not enough, we can send the ironclad army out, and we can-"

"It doesn't make sense, the ironclad army will be sent to death if they go. If it is to encircle and kill the lone second- and third-class innate realms, it is still a little useful. But the red-robed detachment is a group in its own right. Ink robe elder Yan Jiu said: "Everything has a priority and a priority, for us, the most important thing is to guard Baiyun City and wait for the city lord to come out." ”

"Well, too, as long as the city lord enters the first-class innate level, we will not be so passive. Right Protector Ma Feng nodded.
