Yu Shangrong shook his head and sat down.

“Hm?”

“Liang Province’s location is important.
I don’t think Huang Shijie and some third-rate sects can hold such an important place… Victory might not even come easy with you there, Eldest Senior Brother.
I’m the only one who can solve this.
I’m the only one who can defend Liang Province.
I’m the only one who can cut down the Wolf King.” An expression of absolute confidence appeared on Yu Shangrong’s face when he spoke.
He smiled when he saw the unnatural expression on Yu Zhenghai’s face.
“My apologies.
I’ve always been frank.
If I made you uncomfortable with my words, Eldest Senior Brother, I’m willing to make up for it.”

Yu Zhenghai, Si Wuya, and Hua Chongyang were speechless.

Yu Shangrong smiled when he saw the trio keeping quiet.
“What do you say?”

Yu Zhenghai was about to speak, but Si Wuya beat him to it.
“Second Senior Brother, it’s not easy to defend Liang Province.
Are you confident that you can do it?”

“It’s precisely because it’s difficult that I find it interesting.”

“That’s not the point.
The point is, what do you have at your disposal?”

In other words, how was Yu Shangrong, a Six-leaf cultivator, supposed to defend Liang Province?

Yu Zhenghai shared this thought as well.
He had always been at odds with Yu Shangrong.
Moreover, Yu Shangrong was only at the Six-leaf stage.

“I have confidence,” Yu Shangrong replied with a straight face.

“Uh… what’s the source of your confidence?” Si Wuya asked.

“The sword in my hands.”

Zing!

The sword flew out of its scabbard and hovered in front of Yu Shangrong as it glowed with a faint scarlet light.

Si Wuya, “…” He found it exhausting to speak to Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong did not seem to get the point at all.

Yu Zhenghai asked, raising an eyebrow, “Second Junior Brother… you want to help me?”

“Of course not… I have two reasons.
First, I’ve been rather bored recently and need something to kill time.
Second, the Nether Sect is pincered by enemies on both ends.
The battle of the Divine Capital will surely be one of life and death.
If something were to happen to you, I’d no longer have an opponent.
Such a life is too boring.”

Yu Zhenghai’s expression did not betray his thoughts.
He said, “I’d be bored if something were to happen to you as well… Are you really going to Liang Province?”

“I’ve made up my mind.” Yu Shangrong stood up and turned around calmly.

Zing!

His Longevity Sword returned to its scabbard on its own accord.

“Defending Liang Province won’t be easy.
On top of that, you’re only a Six-leaf cultivator… Hua Chongyang, you’ll go with him,” Yu Zhenghai said.

Hua Chongyang bowed.
“Yes, sect master.”

Yu Shangrong came to a halt.
He gave Hua Chongyang a sidelong glance.
With a gentle smile, he appraised Hua Chongyang and said, “If you can keep up, I’ll show you something incredible.”

Something stirred in Hua Chongyang.
When he looked up, there was a gust of wind.

Grand technique!

A lingering afterimage was left in Yu Shangrong’s wake.

Hua Chongyang wasted no time and unleashed his grand technique as well to catch up to Yu Shangrong.
When he rose above Yan Province City, he saw an avatar heading west.
In just a blink of an eye, it vanished from his sight.
He muttered to himself, “Is… Is he really a Six-leaf cultivator?”

Si Wuya smiled faintly.
He looked at Yu Zhenghai who was walking out of the hall with his hands on his back and said nothing.

Yu Zhenghai walked into the courtyard.
He looked up at the sky for a while before he looked away.

Shortly after, Hua Chongyang returned to the courtyard and fell to his knees.
“I’m useless! M-Mister Second has escaped… I mean, Mister Second’s cultivation base is too profound, and I couldn’t keep up with him!”

Yu Zhenghai did not blame Hua Chongyang.
He merely sighed.
“Let him be.”

“You’re not mad at Second Senior Brother, are you, Eldest Senior Brother?” Si Wuya asked with a smile.

Yu Zhenghai said, “I hope that his confidence won’t make him conceited.”

“I believe in Second Senior Brother,” Si Wuya said.

Two days later.

Inside the meeting hall in Yan Province City.

“Eldest Senior Brother, the Blossom Faction, the Fiend Temple, and the Ten Thousand Poison Sect have all replied.
They will send all of their forces to defend Liang Province,” Si Wuya said.

“The Penglai Sect hasn’t replied?” Yu Zhenghai asked.

“Island Master Huang departed yesterday… I didn’t know that Jiang Aijian is Island Master Huang’s first disciple.
He’s heading to Liang Province with Li Jingyi.”

When Yu Zhenghai heard this, he nodded.
“Good.”

“For the battle of the Divine Capital, everything will go according to plan.”

“Three days from now, we’ll mobilize the force of our entire sect to lay siege on the Divine Capital!”
