"...I have a mother-in-law."

Some time later, on the early morning of March 2, 796 in the New Calendar, a figure belonging to Jian Beidong also appeared in the floating territory surrounded by purple light and thunder, accompanied by the dew between the starry night and the morning light.

He returned here with his mouth wide open, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang: "Why are you here? How did you get her here?"

"Oh, my dear apprentice." She waved her hands excitedly, and Laura, who was surrounded by Duan Qing and others, jumped up and replied: "Come and help me! At least explain it to me.

!”

"Can I help you explain? Have you caused some serious trouble again?" It seemed that he had been frightened by the girl's shouting at this time. Jian Beidong, who had always been fearless, stood on the spot and trembled three times: "Again

You want me to deal with the aftermath for you? I really don’t have that much ability! The last time I helped you fend off those pursuers who came out of nowhere, I shed all my skin for three days and three nights!"

"Even if there is really trouble, we are the one who is causing trouble. We will not hunt you down." Pointing to his nose, Duan Qing replied helplessly: "Why are you so afraid of our own people? Everyone

Is there anything we can’t discuss, but——”

"Before that, I think it's better for you to heal yourself first."

Pointing at Jian Beidong's scar-covered body in front of him, Duan Qing stopped what he was about to say. Countless figures of players appearing on the ridge also appeared in the sparse scene as everyone present gradually raised their sights.

In the rain curtain, the stumbling steps of each relying on each other and the smell of gunpowder smoke after the war gradually returned: "...it seems that you have also experienced a story worth writing in the past period."

"Fortunately, there aren't many enemies on the top of the mountain. We were only slightly injured by the ambush on the way down." With the light of the healing magic unleashed by Duan Qing, he sat down and covered the wounds on his shoulders.

Jian Beidong, who was grinning at the wound, replied in a low voice: "As for the situation on the top of the mountain - those people just delayed our steps in various ways. It was obvious that they didn't want to fight us and didn't want us to leave. Later, they continued

Duan Shanyue, who received the news, also noticed the abnormality and took some of his people back first."

"The battle became more exciting after this. I and several other masters from the guild had a good time with them - ah, by the way, is that guy Asahi Dongsheng back?" It seems that he just remembered it just now.

At this incident, the naked swordsman scratching his head turned and looked around: "That guy was stabbed by a strong wind and flew directly out of the cliff. I don't know if he survived."

"I haven't seen it. It's probably dead." Facing Duan Qing's questioning eyes, Gedman quickly reported the information he knew: "Our location is the original temporary camp.

But with the tents and other camps completely destroyed, resurrection—ahem, even if we come back, we will probably go back to a place earlier, that is, somewhere before us..."

"We have always accompanied the migration of the grassland tribes. When we reach a place, we have to re-fix it. The place of residence has never been fixed." Xueling Huanbing on the side then shook his head: "

If calculated strictly, he may have returned to an earlier place."

"That's the lighthouse, right? No wonder Liangchen Meiyu and the Avengers who devised such a vicious plan are so eager to kill us here." Duan Qing sighed and shook his head, and his eyes also turned to the far end of the western sky.

Looking over from a distance: "Forget it, after the channel is re-established, this matter can be confirmed. The top priority now -"

"It's better to rebuild our camp quickly."

The atmosphere of confluence began to spread here as more and more players who had previously gone on the expedition returned. The lively sound representing vitality then rose again with the bright light rising at dawn, and several people left separately.

Then they dispersed in their respective directions as time passed. Only Duan Qing and Jian Beidong, who were responsible for presiding over the repair work of the Violet Array, were still talking in a low voice: "...So this is it? This is really true.

...It’s unheard of.”

"Do you have any other good opinions or suggestions about how to deal with this cheap master of yours?" Duan Qing asked expressionlessly: "Of course, I don't know what the feelings and bonds between you are.

How profound, but if this matter can be properly handled, our general direction will not be unable to change."

"If possible, I want her to stay." After a moment of silence with his eyes closed, Jian Beidong replied solemnly: "Although my master tortures me a lot on weekdays, he also makes me

I practice my sword ten thousand times every day, and I am asked to help serve tea and water, run errands and buy goods, take the blame, and dare to die for the queen, but..."

"She really taught me a lot of powerful moves and techniques in this world."

Amidst the strange shouts of "Hey! Am I as unbearable as you say?" vaguely coming from behind, the naked swordsman smiled bitterly and scratched the tip of his nose: "How can I be as strong as she is now?"

The things she taught me are inseparable. Without considering her goods, her own experience is already an asset that cannot be ignored."

"I also know this. Originally, I just planned to take this opportunity to discuss the terms with this traveling businessman."

Wiping his mouth and letting out a few chuckles, the strange light in Duan Qing's eyes gradually faded away: "But since you said so, I guess there should be no problem in leaving this matter to you.

Right? All subsequent negotiations and communication will be left to you."

"I will take good care of her." Putting on a serious face again, Jian Beidong straightened his back and gestured to his chest: "Before I joined you, I suffered a lot from her.

Take care of her, now I just give her a little bit."

"If possible, I will leave a place for her in the future Violet Domain." Nodding his head, the purple rune light in Duan Qing's hand also reappeared with his open hands: "Now

——”

"Tell me some details on the top of the mountain. Today, when we can't sit still and wait for death, the more information we need to have, the better."

*******************************

The camp, bathed in the rain, fell into calm again as a result. The imagined and expected large-scale counterattack did not appear during this period. The camp reconstruction plan represented by Duan Qing and others also failed.

Taking advantage of the emergence of this period of peace, it quickly unfolded, and the floating area in the air became more and more vibrant. Without the supplies of the logistics line, the players huddled here could only borrow

Various materials on the sacred mountain came to serve as substitutes. It was not until a violent space fluctuation trembled again, and the familiar black hole reappeared, that the situation was relieved to a certain extent: "Through it, the passage is opened!

The portal is open for business again!"

"What? So fast? Did that man actually do it again?"

"It's not that fast, it's already been so many days, and I still have the support of the Lord of Violet... Humph, if I had the secret support of such a big backer, I could do anything of this magnitude.

Do it!”

"But that man and the team around him have been busy with other things. Apart from today's plenary meeting, I have never seen him descend from the purple and thundering cloud. When will he be ready?

of?"

"Because of your help."

In the middle of the floating land made up of ruins, the presidents of the major guilds and the representative powerful players who had gathered here again raised their attention. Duan Qing, who had always been the focus, was here.

Shi Ye looked at his pale and tired face and managed to brush off the topic easily: "Because of your help, our camp reconstruction work went very smoothly. The violet defensive barrier and anti-gravity floating

Nearly 80% of the system has been rebuilt, and the repair work and the provision of magic power in the entire floating area are indispensable without the help of everyone here."

"But what I want to say now is something further, which is why we have called everyone here this time." In this way, Duan Qing suppressed many idle voices and put on a serious face:

"We can't stop moving forward, otherwise we won't even have a resurrection point when the hidden enemy attacks again, and we won't be able to fight this battle."

"So? We are brought here just to discuss this matter?" A guild president asked in the direction of the silent whisperer sitting next to him: "Isn't this what we agreed on from the beginning?

?Is there anything else to discuss?”

"Yes, yes, the people in our guild are very busy right now." Another guild president raised his voice: "Every time we waste, our station reconstruction work will be delayed.

One point! If there’s nothing else to do, we’ll go back first!”

"Be patient." He put his hands forward in a pressing posture, and the purple rune streamer in Duan Qing's hand also attracted everyone's attention at this moment: "I don't want to waste my own time if it is not necessary.

, after all, the most important restoration work here is still on the violet field and various magical functions. The task on my shoulders is also very heavy, but-"

"Since the Lord of Violet has taken the time to help us reopen the transmission channel and restore the supply of our personnel and materials to normal, we must also fulfill our previous commitments and fulfill some of her wishes and requirements."

The gray-robed magician here touched his hair unnaturally: "As for this request... although it is a bit strange, it is a good thing for all of us, and we all need to discuss it together before we can decide.

"

"What's the request?" All the players, including Duan Shanyue, all looked at each other: "Isn't it another legendary level mission that's incredibly difficult?"

"How is it possible? It's a good thing." Duan Qing replied with a proud look on his face: "She wants us to help design the tower of this territory, the symbol of the Violet Domain."

"She hopes that all of you who have been working hard for the reconstruction work can be her guests."

In words that surprised the surrounding guild presidents, a mysterious smile gradually appeared on Duan Qing's face: "Except for some necessary facilities, the rest can be designed freely by our side. What do you think?

?”

"We... can we leave a place for ourselves in the Violet Tower?" In the atmosphere where the noisy noise quickly spread, one of the guild leader players took the lead in asking this tentative question: "It is equivalent to the one in the city.

Territory, is that what you mean?"

"You can understand it that way." Duan Qing nodded affirmatively, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "With the help of you and other forces, the future development prospects of this place are limitless. Let alone the sacred mountain, it will become the entire wind

The ruling center of the mainland may be able to do this."

"This small piece of land we are now on is very likely to become a huge main city in the future. I believe that all of you who have seen the strength of the Lord of Violet should be well aware of this result." Sitting on the other side.

Snow Spirit Huan Bing on one side also crossed his arms and spoke coldly: "At our request, the Lord of Violet now agrees to let us fully participate in this camp - no, it is the reconstruction of this city.

At work, this is definitely a great opportunity for us.”

"I hope you will take it seriously and come up with a plan that satisfies everyone."

The increasingly noisy voice instantly rose in the air of the party, accompanied by the excited look on the face of every guild president and player, and the beautiful curves of the corners of their mouths as they murmured.

Then he quietly approached Duan Qing, praising his choice in his ear: "How about it, this should solve most of the problems, right?"

"I just hope that the conditions and bargaining chips we later sold can satisfy the greedy hearts of these people." Duan Qing curled his lips and sighed quietly: "And we want to make a plan that satisfies everyone. In a physical sense,

It’s almost impossible, and we’ll inevitably have to fight a few more times.”

"Believe in your own prestige and the cohesion of our new alliance. These are not problems."

Rulan's breath circled around Duan Qing's ears, and she flirted provocatively in the direction of the hostile aura emitted by Xueling Huanbing: "If you are willing to nod, I can also take my hand.

How about putting all the power in your hands and making you the emperor of this world?"

"You know I don't want these things." Duan Qing, who tilted his head with a wry smile and rolled his eyes, then showed a pensive look: "But I really can't pin all the solutions on ourselves.

On people...well."

"I thought of an idea, but I don't know if it will work."
