"How did Miss deduce that Lu Chen is Master Chen?”Old Man Li thought about it and still felt that it was unreal.
"I've read the ancient book that I gave to Master Chen. Although I don't know anything about runes, it says that the power-enhancing talisman will glow red when used. Moreover, the materials used to make it contain the blood essence of a white-armed ape.”
Mo Xiaoxue said lightly.
"Miss, you mean…"
"Just now, before Lu Chen killed the White-armed Ape, a red light flashed on his hand, and his strength increased greatly.”
Mo Xiaoxue paused for a moment before continuing," In addition, he mentioned that the White-armed Ape was very difficult to deal with, which means that he had the experience of dealing with the White-armed Ape before. It's very likely that he wanted to obtain the White-armed Ape's blood essence. Therefore, all the signs pointed to Lu Chen being Master Chen!”
Hiss…
Old Man Li couldn't help but gasp.
"Sixteen or seventeen years old, a high-level Martial Master, whose strength is comparable to a Martial Grandmaster, and a high-level Rune Master…Is…is he still human?”
Old Man Li felt that his brain could not process it.
"It doesn't matter if you're a human or a demon. I only know that his future is limitless! It was laughable that I wanted to recruit him back then. So he didn't reject me because he was arrogant, but because he had full confidence…"
Mo Xiaoxue's tone was full of self-mockery.
But soon, she became excited again and said," This is also my chance! Lu Chen did not belong to any force yet. This could be seen from the fact that he did not know much about the background of the Martial Artist Guild. Although I can't take out any bargaining chips to recruit him, I can be on good terms with him. Even if we become friends, when I return to Haitian City, I'll have more confidence to do what I want!”
At this moment, Lu Chen hurriedly collected some of the White-Armed Ape's blood essence and quickly came to Mo Xiaoxue's side. Are your injuries serious?"
Mo Xiaoxue glanced at Lu Chen and said," Lu Chen, Master Chen, you lied to me so badly…"
As she spoke, Mo Xiaoxue gave Lu Chen a wronged look, as if she had been abandoned by Lu Chen.
"Um…"
Lu Chen knew that he had been exposed and smiled." Sigh, I just don't want to be too high-profile. After all, the world is dangerous. I have to leave some way out for myself."”
"Hmph, with your strength, who in Jiangbei City can do anything to you?”
Mo Xiaoxue rolled her eyes.
"That's true." Lu Chen smiled and quickly changed the topic." Let's not talk about this for now. The most important thing now is to defend Jiangbei City. If you're fine, I'll go and defend the city first."”
After saying that, Lu Chen leaped onto the city wall.
Taking advantage of the effect of the power-increasing talisman, Lu Chen went on a killing spree. Every time he attacked, he would set off a shocking sword light, killing several or even dozens of ferocious beasts under his sword. This attracted the admiration of many warriors, and even the morale of the surrounding people was greatly boosted.
Seeing this, Mo Xiaoxue rolled her eyes at first, but she soon laughed again.
"Although this Lu Chen is a little unromantic, he's quite a good person. He's much better than those young masters from the families in Haitian City.”
Mo Xiaoxue smiled and said," It seems like she's a good partner…"
"Miss, you can't…"
The more Old Man Li listened, the more he felt that something was wrong and quickly tried to dissuade him.
"Why not? Tell me, how many of those good-for-nothings in Haitian City can compare to him in terms of talent or potential? They were all arrogant and domineering, always treating him like a green onion. Just looking at them made him feel annoyed.”
Mo Xiaoxue's eyes were filled with disgust.
" This…" Old Man Li fell silent after being rebuked by Mo Xiaoxue.
……
Another half an hour passed.
After paying a considerable price, the beasts were finally killed and Jiangbei City was defended!
Nearly ten thousand martial artists raised their arms and shouted with indescribable excitement.
After all, this was the first time in 800 years that Jiangbei City had been attacked by a monster horde. Many people were determined to die, so it was naturally exciting to be able to defend it.
There was another very important point.
The martial artists of Jiangbei City had killed tens of thousands of ferocious beasts during the beast tide, and their corpses were piled up one kilometer away from the city wall.
With so many fierce beast corpses, the lowest level was Level 2. How many materials could he get?
It was definitely a huge fortune.
"The crisis is temporarily resolved. All martial artists stay on alert. When everything is normal tomorrow, we will leave the city to sweep the battlefield and collect materials!”
Mo Xiaoxue's order received the support of all the martial artists.
……
The next day.
The morning sun slowly rose, and the beast tide completely receded. Jiangbei City returned to its usual tranquility.
Hundreds of thousands of residents walked out of the fallout center to the outside of the city. They collected the useful materials from the ferocious beasts and then piled up the useless corpses a few kilometers away to burn them to prevent the outbreak of diseases.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.
As soon as Lu Chen brought Yue Ling home, the people from the Warrior Guild came to his door, saying that Mo Xiaoxue wanted to see him.
Coincidentally, Lu Chen also had something to ask Mo Xiaoxue, so he agreed.
After settling Yue Ling down, Lu Chen went to the Warrior Guild.
"Master Chen, Martial Master Lu, you're here.”
As soon as they met, Mo Xiaoxue teased Lu Chen like an old acquaintance. She was not afraid of Lu Chen being unhappy. After all, she had dealt with Lu Chen so many times and knew that Lu Chen was not a petty person.
And that was the truth.
"Miss Mo, can you not let this matter go? Didn't you also hide the fact that you're a martial master?”Lu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"You didn't ask me, so is that considered hiding?”
"Okay, okay, okay. It's all my fault, okay? Tell me, why are you looking for me?" Lu Chen smiled.
"Must I only see you for something? How unromantic! Alright, let's get down to business!"
Mo Xiaoxue rolled her eyes and said seriously," Lu Chen, with your potential, Jiangbei City is definitely not your stage. I want to ask you, what are your plans from now on?"”
"I don't have any plans yet. After all, I don't know much about the settlement.”
Lu Chen felt that he was quite familiar with Mo Xiaoxue, so he said truthfully.
"Are you interested in going to Haitian City with me?”Mo Xiaoxue looked at Lu Chen.
"Haitian City?" Lu Chen was stunned.
" That's right. Haitian City is a Level 2 settlement. Jiangbei City can't compare to it in terms of prosperity. You can display your talents and strength there!”
