Chapter 122 Forced
Before he could finish, Liu Qingyun interrupted him and said, "Master Ye, this is an order from the Lingxiao Sect. Our Liu family has the right to deploy all foundation-building forces within the jurisdiction. Moreover, our ancestor is confronting the third-level green bull monster, and the situation is tense. If the situation worsens due to your family's non-cooperation, the consequences will be unbearable for your Ye family."
After hearing this, Ye Jiulong couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He knew that it was useless to shirk responsibility, so he had to respond, "In this case, we will discuss and send two foundation-building cultivators. Please wait for a moment, fellow Daoist Liu."
After Liu Qingyun left, Ye Jiulong immediately convened an emergency meeting of the core members of the clan. Ye Changsheng was also called out of seclusion and hurried to the meeting hall of Qingzhu Peak.
Ye Jiulong explained Liu Qingyun's intentions and requirements in detail, and everyone present was indignant after hearing it.
"This Zifu Liu family is too domineering!"
Ye Jiubao couldn't help but slammed the table and stood up, "Although our Qingzhu Ye family is not as strong as them, we are not fish that can be slaughtered at will!"
Ye Tianya also echoed: "That's right, why should we guard their territory? We can't even take care of our own territory."
"This Liu family is a bit too much!"
Ye Jiuhu said.
Ye Jiulong waved his hand and signaled everyone to calm down: "Everyone, I understand your anger. But the Zifu Liu family has the Zifu ancestor behind them, so we have to consider it carefully. If we offend them, the consequences may be unbearable."
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Indeed, with the strength of the Qingzhu Ye family, it is impossible to compete with the Zifu Liu family.
Ye Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "Clan leader, since you can't refuse, why don't I go. My strength..."
Ye Jiulong shook his head and interrupted, "Changsheng, you just returned from the last mission. This time it's our turn from Qingzhu Peak. Besides, the hope of whether our Ye family can break through to the Purple Mansion family lies in you. You need more time to retreat and improve your cultivation. Don't go this time."
Ye Changsheng had to give up after hearing this.
Ye Jiulong looked around at everyone and continued, "We only have five foundation-building cultivators on the surface, and we must send two this time. After repeated consideration, I think it is more appropriate for Dongran Taishang and Jiubao to go."
Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao looked at each other and stood up at the same time: "Clan leader, don't worry, we will do our best and live up to our mission."
Others were a little worried.
Ye Jiuhu said, "Dongran Taishang, Jiubao, you have just broken through the foundation building stage, and your cultivation is still shallow. I am afraid that there will be many dangers on the way to the Forbidden City. You must be more careful."
Ye Dongran smiled and said, "Don't worry, Jiuhu, Jiubao and I each have a Vajra puppet equipped by Changsheng. That is a treasure with the strength of the middle stage of foundation building, which is enough to protect ourselves."
Ye Jiubao also nodded and said, "Yes, with the Vajra puppet, we can escape even if we encounter danger."
Everyone felt relieved after hearing this, but they were still worried.
Ye Jiulong said in a deep voice, "In this case, you two should set off immediately. Be careful on the road and don't act rashly. If there is any danger, send a letter for help immediately."
Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao solemnly agreed, and then said goodbye and left to prepare their luggage.
Not long after, the two of them drove the flying boat, slowly took off under the eyes of their clansmen, and flew towards the Forbidden City.
The two flew for more than a day and finally arrived at the Forbidden City.
Although they encountered monsters during the period, fortunately, they were all first-level monsters, and they were easily dispatched by the two.
When the two arrived at the Forbidden City, they were greeted by Liu Qingyu.
However, after Liu Qingyu learned that the two were from Ye Changsheng's family, he was very polite to them.
"I didn't expect that the two Taoist friends were from the family of Brother Changsheng. I will definitely arrange a good position for the two."
Liu Qingyu said.
The two did not expect Ye Changsheng to have such a big face, and they were stunned.
The two immediately thanked him.
Because of the large flow of people in the Forbidden City, it has long been targeted by the monster group.
The next morning, Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao followed other foundation-building cultivators to the defense line on the eastern edge of the Forbidden City.
There are relatively few second-level high-quality monsters in the monster group here compared to the other three sides.
The pressure should also be less.
There are also more than 20 foundation-building cultivators arranged together, including several foundation-building cultivators from the Liu family.
Soon after arriving, there were roars of beasts in the distance.
Everyone looked intently and saw that the mountains and plains were full of monsters, including some huge second-level monsters.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
A late-stage foundation-building cultivator of the Liu family shouted.
Immediately, more than 20 foundation-building cultivators sacrificed their magic weapons and set up battle formations.
Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao also summoned their Vajra puppets and prepared for battle.
In the blink of an eye, the army of monsters rushed to the front.
The leader was a giant python with a body length of nearly ten feet, which opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the crowd.
"Kill!"
With an order, the two sides fought together in an instant.
Ye Dongran controlled the Vajra puppet to wield a giant axe, splitting the head of a second-level wolf demon with one axe.
Ye Jiubao commanded the puppet to swing a spear and pierce the monsters that rushed up one by one.
Other cultivators also displayed their magical powers, either using flying swords or casting spells to fiercely engage in battles with the monster army.
However, the number of monsters was too large, and soon some cultivators were defeated and fell.
A Liu family cultivator in the early stage of foundation building was besieged by three second-level monster tigers and was torn into pieces in the blink of an eye.
Ye Dongran was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly controlled the Vajra Puppet to rush forward to support.
The puppet swung a huge axe and split a demon tiger in half.
The other two demon tigers were furious and spurted out two flames from their mouths.
Ye Dongran quickly controlled the puppet to raise the huge axe to block, but it was still burned red.
He was shocked and thought that although this Vajra puppet was strong, it was difficult to completely resist the full-strength attack of the second-level demon beast.
At this moment, a second-level demon tiger with a larger body suddenly fell from the sky, opened its bloody mouth and bit Ye Dongran. Ye Dongran was shocked and quickly controlled the puppet to block in front of him.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the Vajra puppet was slapped away by the claws of the second-level demon tiger and fell heavily to the ground. Ye Dongran was also shocked by this huge force and vomited blood, staggering back.
Seeing the second-level demon tiger rushing again, Ye Dongran had no time to dodge, and a trace of despair flashed in his heart.
At the critical moment, a golden light suddenly flashed.
Ye Jiubao's Vajra puppet rushed to Ye Dongran at some point, waving his spear to force the second-level middle-grade demon tiger back.
"Dongran, are you okay?"
Ye Jiubao asked anxiously.
Ye Dongran shook his head and barely stood up: "Thank you for saving me, I'm fine."
The two just breathed a sigh of relief, but saw the second-level demon tiger rushing again.
This time it learned its lesson, first spraying a flame to force the Vajra puppet back, and then rushing directly towards Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao.
At the critical moment, Ye Dongran and Ye Jiubao simultaneously offered a talisman.
Two golden lights flashed, which were the second-level upper-grade golden sword talismans they had prepared in advance.
It was the bottom of the box.
Two golden giant swords flew out and hit the head of the second-level demon tiger.
With a "click", the demon tiger's skull was actually shattered, and its huge body fell to the ground.
