Chapter seven hundred and eighty seventh under the city of Linzhou
A month later, Zhan Chen followed the girls to Linzhou City, a large city on the border of the Qinxiao Sect with a population of more than five million. The reason why he only sent Zhan Chen and ten other disciples to reinforce
This is because the area ruled by the Qinxiao Sect is too large. Although there are many disciples participating in this operation, there are only a few people who can go to each place after the distribution.
Zhan Chen and others, who had the cultivation level of Yuanshen Realm, were assigned to the hardest-hit areas. The Qinxiao Sect's branch in Linzhou City was on the outskirts of the city. When everyone arrived, it was already evening, and the person in charge of the branch
Xu Chunying received them.
Everyone sat down in the hall, divided into hosts and guests. Xu Chunying said to Lin Suya: "Senior Sister Suya, we have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. The situation in Linzhou City is really not optimistic."
Lin Suya asked: "Tell me what's going on?"
"First of all, there is a shortage of manpower. Our Linzhou City branch only has thirty-six people. Recently, there have been many soul hunters in the city, killing people everywhere. According to statistics, thousands of people have been killed -"
"Is there that many?" Lin Suya was surprised. This number was far beyond her imagination.
"I'm afraid there will be more. There is a lot of chaos in Linzhou City right now. Many people have been killed by soul hunters and their bodies have been found. They can only be counted as missing."
"It seems that we need to act quickly. Only in this way can we reduce the number of victims." Lin Suya said solemnly.
"But our manpower is really insufficient. We not only have to maintain the order of Linzhou City, but also take care of the villages and towns near Linzhou City. Moreover, our branch's combat strength is also insufficient. Most of the sisters in the branch are outer disciples.
, I am the only inner disciple, but my cultivation level is only at the elementary level of Yuan Shen, but the soul hunters all have the strength of Yuan Shen level, so we can’t deal with them at all.”
Lin Suya said: "With insufficient manpower and insufficient combat power, can't we cooperate with Linzhou City's city defense army to fight together?"
Xu Chunying replied: "Already counting their combat power, but the vast majority of the city defense army are from the Immortal Realm, which is not enough to deal with the powerful soul hunters. Our city has a population of more than five million.
Moreover, it is located at the three-way junction of Jinjianmen and Yunyao Kingdom, with frequent population exchanges. Every day, soul hunters mix in with the incoming people and enter Linzhou City."
Lin Suya frowned and said: "In this case, the ten of us will only be a drop in the bucket."
Xu Chunying said: "Therefore, it is impossible for us to uncover all the soul hunters lurking in the city, but with your participation, we will be more confident. At least we will dare to fight when we encounter those soul hunters."
Lin Suya pondered and said: "Junior sister Xu, can you take us to see the city lord? It is difficult to completely eradicate the soul hunters and protect the entire Linzhou City with our strength alone."
"OK."
After that, under the leadership of Xu Chunying, Lin Suya and others arrived at the city lord's mansion and met with the city lord Li Liwei. Li Liwei had the cultivation of Yuan Shen Dzogchen. When he saw Lin Suya, he smiled and came forward.
, said: "Your Majesty, we looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally we have brought you here!"
Lin Suya smiled slightly and said: "We are doing everything for the sake of the sect and ensuring the peace of the party."
After sitting down after the ceremony, Lin Suya asked Li Liwei: "City Lord Li, I believe you are aware of the nature of our trip."
"But you came here because of the soul hunting problem in the city?"
"Yes, our trip is just to eliminate them, but you know that our personnel are limited and we cannot take care of everyone in the city, so we ask City Master Li to help us."
"Assistance is certain, but the soul hunters' cultivation is above the Yuanshen realm. Our city defense army has fought with them several times before, but suffered heavy losses, so we are only seeking to protect ourselves and have no time to take care of other things.
It’s close to the countryside.”
Lin Suya asked again: "How many city defense troops are there currently, and what are their cultivation levels?"
Li Liwei replied: "Our city defense army has 53,000 people, but there are only 23 Yuanshen realm experts, and most of them are at the primary and intermediate Yuanshen levels. It is quite enough to deal with the soul hunters in the city."
It’s hard.”
Lin Suya was silent. Although Linzhou City is a great city, it is too far away from the sect's ruling center. It is inevitable that it will not receive the attention of the sect, so the defense force arranged is also very weak. Once something goes wrong, it will
It will appear stretched.
Li Liwei continued: "With such a small number of people, it is difficult to maintain public order in Linzhou City, let alone deal with the Soul Hunters. Moreover, since the Soul Hunters incident, our Linzhou City has become increasingly chaotic.
I really have more than enough ambition but not enough energy."
Lin Suya smiled and said: "City Lord Li, we are here to make up for the lack of combat power in the city. Let us join your city defense army and help you eliminate the soul hunters."
Li Liwei said happily: "This is very good."
"But we don't know much about the situation in the city yet."
"It doesn't matter. Starting tomorrow, I will send someone to take you around the city."
"Thank you very much."
Lin Suya chatted with Li Liwei and others for a few more words, and then led everyone back to the Qinxiao sect branch. When Xu Chunying saw them coming back, she stepped forward and said solemnly to Lin Suya: "Senior sister, I just received a call from the sect.
According to the notice, Zongli asked us to find out one key thing."
"What happened?"
"It is to find out the distribution and action patterns of those soul hunters. Various signs indicate that Batunuo is likely to appear in the territory of our sect in the near future."
"Batuno is in our territory of the Qinxiao sect?" Lin Suya, Zhan Chen and others were shocked.
"This is just a guess. The devil was active in Yunyao Kingdom before."
"This matter is important. Let's start taking action tomorrow. The troops will be divided into two groups to investigate inside and outside the city."
"Oh, by the way, I have a Thousand Miles Communication Talisman here. I will give each of you senior sisters one piece to facilitate contact." Xu Chunying said as she took out ten Thousand Miles Communication Talismans from the storage ring and distributed them to Zhan Chen and others.
Zhan Chen fiddled with the jade talisman in his palm for a few times and found that its function was exactly the same as the Baili communication talisman he had used before. That is, as long as the jade talisman was activated, they could sense each other over a long distance and be able to interact with each other.
It's just that the Qianli Communication Talisman is more powerful than the Baili Communication Talisman and can make calls over a longer distance.
Lin Suya said to everyone: "Everyone, put away the communication talisman. We may have to split up tomorrow, and then we will rely on this jade talisman to communicate." She then said to Xu Chunying: "Junior sister Xu, you also have the cultivation level of the Yuan Shen realm.
, follow our actions tomorrow, as long as the junior sisters from the Immortal Realm are left in the branch to protect and communicate."
Xu Chunying nodded and said: "Okay, please don't forget, our Thousand Miles Communication Talismans can all contact each other, and we can also contact the branch. If we encounter any situation that we cannot handle, we can
Rush for reinforcements quickly."
Zhan Chen's heart moved and he thought: "This way the operation will be more efficient. Tomorrow I want to see what the legendary soul hunting is like."
