"You must have all heard about what the Lord of the Liu Hall and the others did in Tianyu City. The white-haired old man's gaze swept over the few people present and said.

"Of course, we have heard about this for a long time, and now we think that the Tongtian Immortal Sect will definitely not give up this time!" the curly-haired young man said immediately.

"Judging from the intelligence in recent months, the Tongtian Immortal Sect spies are frequently haunting the border, and it seems that they are going to make some big moves. Next to the curly-haired young man, a wide-mouthed middle-aged man continued.

When the people present heard the news, their faces sank.

"Seriously, where are those spies mainly haunting?" asked a hall master who looked like a young woman.

"Mainly in the southeast provinces of Donglin and Linhai, but recently in the northeast of Heihe Province there seem to be a lot of suspicious elements. The wide-mouthed middle-aged man said.

The faces of the people present changed slightly, Donglin and Linhai were close to the Tongtian Immortal Sect, and it was not surprising that there were spies haunting, but Heihe Province was indeed the border between Western Xia and the Great Qin State.

"Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Sect is also ......," said a big black-faced man sitting directly opposite the red-eyebrow man, but stopped in the middle of speaking.

"The Heavenly Demon Sect, like the Tongtian Immortal Sect, claimed to eradicate heresy on the surface back then, but in fact, they all coveted the spirit stone veins in my Western Xia country. Over the years, they have been staring at us all the time, if the Tongtian Immortal Sect attacks us this time, the Heavenly Demon Sect will never sit idly by......" The curly-haired young man said coldly, his eyes always staring at Liu An.

"Ahem, everyone, our Stygian Moon Sect and the Tongtian Immortal Sect have a deep enmity like the sea, and the Tongtian Immortal Sect has never relaxed its investigation of our side, even if we don't make any moves. Sooner or later, they will attack too. The red-eyed man coughed, interrupting the curly-haired boy's next words. It attracted everyone's attention.

He paused, then continued:

"And in my opinion. Senior Brother Liu's operation was also a great success, not only greatly weakening the younger generation of the Tongtian Immortal Sect, but also sacrificing a lot of potential sacrifices, which can be said to be a great success!"

"Ridiculous! Could it be that the Di Hall Lord thinks that Liu An is right to act without authorization this time, make trouble in Tianyu City, and deliberately provoke the Tongtian Immortal Sect?" the curly-haired young man snorted coldly.

"Avenging the Eastern Sect Master was something that all of us agreed to back then, that's it. I don't think I need to say more. The red-eyebrow man didn't let him go.

"That's right, but didn't we already discuss it back then, and we also agreed that we should take the restoration of the strength of the sect first, if the Tongtian Immortal Sect joins forces with the Heavenly Demon Sect to attack at this moment, how can we resist it?" The curly-haired young man's voice became louder.

The red-eyebrow man frowned, and was about to retort.

"Well, don't argue. The white-haired old man sitting in the first seat spoke, and when the others heard this, they all fell silent.

"Liu An's deeds in Tianyu City have merit and deeds. This will be discussed later. Summoning everyone to come this time, it is indeed necessary to discuss the countermeasures to deal with the Tongtian Immortal Sect, the people of the Dustless Dao have been obscure over the years, and they have never given up the invasion of our Western Xia Kingdom. Judging by the current signs, war is inevitable. The white-haired old man said.

The people present looked at each other for a while, but no one spoke for a while.

The Stygian Cult has been in the Dark Moon since the fall of the previous Sect Master. The strength is declining day by day, even when it was in its heyday. also suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Tongtian Immortal Sect, let alone now.

"The strength of the Tongtian Immortal Sect is stronger than before. We can't fight it with our current strength alone. For today's plan, he can only take a risk, taking advantage of the fact that the Tongtian Immortal Sect has not really attacked, and move the foundation of the sect to the Xihe Continent, in order to make a comeback. At this moment, Liu An suddenly opened his mouth and said.

As soon as these words came out, the people present were in an uproar.

"Liu An, what are you talking about, how dangerous it is to cross the sea to the Xihe Continent, there are countless sea beasts entrenched in the West Sea, and the people of the Sea Clan and our Stygian Moon Sect have always been hostile, you don't know it! Moreover, the demon beasts of the Xihe Continent are rampant, and it is the territory of the Underworld Sect, do you want us to go and pray for them to take them in? Back then, the old sect leader and the Xihe Underworld Sect, you, the senior disciple of the Underworld, wouldn't you not know?"

"Now is not the time to save face, first of all, we must protect the vitality of this sect, if the master is still alive, I believe he will make the same decision. Liu An said.

Everyone present was silent, this idea, most of the people present had thought about it, but no one put it forward.

"If you are still worried, Liu is willing to lead a group of disciples to Xihe to explore the way first. Liu An said to the white-haired old man.

"Senior Brother Liu, you are the heir named by the previous sect leader, what if something happens?

"Senior Brother Di is practicing martial arts, and it is inconvenient to deal with sea beasts, so it is better for me to personally lead the disciples. Liu An shook his head and said.

The red-eyebrow man wanted to say something more, but when he saw Liu An's determined expression, he couldn't say anything for some reason.

None of the others in the room spoke, and were silent for a while.

In the current situation of the Stygian Moon Sect, going to sea to the Xihe Continent is undoubtedly a way out, but they don't want to be the team leader.

First, the situation there is uncertain, and it is not easy to lay a foundation on a continent, and secondly, it is inevitable to negotiate with the Stygian Western Sect, which is tantamount to asking for help.

These middle and high-level members of the sect, who are accustomed to being big figures, are neither willing to endure hardships nor willing to put down their faces to beg for help.

"That's the only way to go. Then Liu An led some of the disciples to Xihe first. But Hall Master Liu, who are you going to take with you?" the white-haired old man groaned for a moment, looked at Liu An, and asked.

"I plan to hold a selection in the sect to select disciples who are powerful and willing to go to the Xihe Continent, and the number is not too many, only two hundred. Liu An said.

Hearing that there were only two hundred people, the other hall masters present immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, that's it, the specific matters of selection will be left to the Lord of the Liu Palace. The white-haired old man said.

Half a day later, an order flew out of the main altar of the Stygian Moon Sect, and soon spread throughout the ancient kingdom of Western Xia.

......

A month later, in front of the ancient road where Shi Mu and Hussere were riding, a gray city faintly appeared.

The city looks very old, the area is not large, and the protective wall is only a few zhang high.

"Master Mu, ahead is Picheng. Hussele pointed to the city in front of him and said.

Shi Mu nodded.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind, and several black-robed figures riding fast horses came from the rear and whistled past Shi Mu and the others.

Shi Mu's eyes moved slightly, along the way, especially the closer he got to Picheng, the more people he encountered, and they were not ordinary people from the Western Xia Kingdom, they were all cultivators.

"Is Picheng very prosperous, and many people have rushed there along the way?" Shi Mu asked.

"Picheng is just a small city in the entire ancient kingdom of Western Xia, and I also feel a little strange in Xia, I have never seen such a situation before. Hussele also seemed a little confused.

"Forget it, we'll find out when we get into the city. Shi Mu drove the horses and walked forward.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to the gate of Picheng.

The gate of Picheng also looks very dilapidated, but at this moment there is a long queue outside the gate, and it seems that they are all from other places.

Shi Mu and Hou Sailei glanced at each other, and it seemed that something had indeed happened in the city.

The two also turned over and dismounted, standing at the end of the line.

At the gate of the city, several black-clothed Dark Moon Sect disciples were screening the people who entered the city, and the supervision was very strict, and some outsiders had to be interrogated for a long time.

"Master Mu, although I don't know what's going on here, it's better to have more than one thing, so let's pretend to be a disciple of the Stygian Moon Sect for the time being. Hussere said softly.

Shi Mu nodded, took out the Dark Moon Order, and hung it on his body.

Just now he saw a disciple of the Stygian Moon Sect, and after revealing the Stygian Moon Order, he was directly allowed to enter the city without inspection.

A quarter of an hour later, it was the turn of Shi Mu and the others.

Shi Mu raised the Dark Moon Order in his hand, and the three red star patterns on the token flickered.

The face of one of the Stygian Moon Sect disciples guarding the city changed for a moment, and then he showed a respectful look and bowed to Shi Mu.

Shi Mu put away the Dark Moon Order and walked towards Picheng.

After showing the Dark Moon Order, Hussere followed Shi Mu and led his horse into the city.

Shi Mu glanced towards the city and frowned.

The city in front of me looked terribly chaotic, more than it looked from the outside.

There is only one main road in the city, barely paved with stones, and it does not look smooth.

On both sides of the main road are some buildings, not tall, all of them are two- or three-story houses, and they look very dilapidated.

In addition to the houses and buildings, there are also large open spaces in the city, which are muddy wetlands, swamps, and the breeze blows in the face, bringing with it a slight smell of decay.

Shi Mu frowned, the environment here seems to be too bad, not to mention that compared with some cities in the Lushan Dynasty, it is far inferior to some cities in the Great Qi Kingdom.

However, it was in this dilapidated small city that there were a lot of people gathered at this moment, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was full of people, and many of them were disciples of the Underworld Moon Sect, and many of them had a hint of excitement on their faces.

"Senior Mu, what are we going to do next?" Hou Sailei looked at Shi Mu.

"Whatever happens here, it has nothing to do with us, didn't you say you knew any friends here? Shi Mu thought about it for a moment and said.

Hou Sailei agreed, and walked forward with Shi Mu.

The two of them turned a few corners and came to a small square that was a little messy, near the square was a row of black buildings, which looked much cleaner than the surrounding houses, and from time to time there were disciples of the Stygian Moon Sect entering and exiting these buildings.

"This is here?" Shi Mu asked.

"Yes, this is where the Stygian Moon Sect's branch in Picheng is located, and the villain has some friendship with one of the seniors here, so you can ask him for news. Hussere said.

Shi Mu nodded.

The two came to a black building, and Hu Sailei walked in alone, and Shi Mu did not enter together.

Although he had the Stygian Order on him, that thing could only deceive the guards at the city gate, and he didn't dare to pretend to be a Stygian Cultist in this kind of Stygian branch. (To be continued.) )
