972 Important Matters to Discuss

After leaving Murong Xue's tent, Liu Yan flew high into the sky alone and stopped on a huge tree branch.

Murong Xue's rapid progress in strength reminded him of something.

The Awakened who were slightly less talented could quickly increase their strength through other channels, and they could even surpass those who were more talented.

Just like Murong Xue, who was actually very talented in martial arts. Before she entered the Tower, she had been a martial arts prodigy since young.

However, after entering the Tower and awakening her talent, although her talent was not bad, it was not top-notch. She could not compare to Allen Smith and the others.

That being said, this did not mean that Murong Xue's strength would always be weaker than theirs. Rather, through this opportunity, her strength had surpassed them. Not only had she caught up with Allen Smith and the others, but she had even surpassed them in one fell swoop.

The reason for this was that Murong Xue had found a path that was suitable for her to quickly increase her strength. That was why she could improve so quickly.

This undoubtedly reminded Liu Yan: Could the other experts of Team Origin, or even all the ordinary members, do the same?

Previously, he had always felt that the members of Team Origin were improving at a sufficient speed. After all, given their limited talents, their current improvement speed could already be considered very fast.

But perhaps, it could be faster.

As long as Liu Yan helped them find a suitable path, the speed at which their strength progressed would be able to accelerate!

Of course, this was all for the future. It would be after the battle between Team Origin and Team Lighthouse.

Liu Yan took note of this in his heart.

Then, he checked the Flame Demonic Spear.

The aura of the SSS-grade Flame Demonic Spear had gradually stabilized. It was close to awakening.

However, it was still missing the last bit.

When Liu Yan saw this, he was not anxious. Instead, he started to meditate and rest.

With the Flame Demonic Spear, he could easily take care of Luo Feng.

However, even without it, he was confident that he could defeat the other party with his own strength.

Liu Yan did not have a strong reliance on a weapon. A weapon was ultimately a weapon, just a tool. That held true even if the Flame Demonic Spear was an SSS-grade weapon and was extremely powerful!

...

Deep in the Hallucinatory Forest, Team Lighthouse had already set up a temporary camp and was dealing with the bodies of the dead members. At the same time, they were also treating the seriously injured.

All the team members were busy, but they also had to be on guard at all times to prevent Team Origin from ambushing them.

After all, Team Lighthouse didn't have the help of a large number of Withered Tree Spirits. They couldn't rely on the Withered Tree Spirits to keep watch, so they could only do it themselves.

At this moment, Huang Yuan had already arrived in Lu Dajiang's tent.

He had come directly and openly. After all, both of them were from Blue Planet and had a good relationship. They had always done things this way.

If he came here mysteriously because of the important matter, it would instead arouse suspicion if he was discovered.

Hence, Huang Yuan chose to come over openly so that he would not arouse suspicion.

When Lu Dajiang saw Huang Yuan's arrival, he naturally thought that the latter was here to drink with him.

"Come and sit. This mission is urgent, so I didn't bring any good wine. We can only drink some ordinary ones. Speaking of which, you've been busy since you were summoned back this time. The two of us really haven't had a good drink yet!" Lu Dajiang said some courteous words while rummaging through the wine.

Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan had a good relationship. Every time Huang Yuan came back, the two of them would have a good drink.

In this dangerous Wind Barrier, the two who were both from Blue Planet undoubtedly valued this friendship and comrade-in-arms relationship more.

When Huang Yuan saw the wine that Lu Dajiang handed over, he pushed it away.

"What's the matter? Do you think my wine is bad? The situation is special, so we can only make do with it!" Lu Dajiang said nonchalantly.

Huang Yuan shook his head and looked at Lu Dajiang seriously, "There are too few people for us to drink today. Let's call Wei Feng and the others over to drink together!"

Huang Yuan's words were extremely ordinary, but Lu Dajiang was stunned. He had a good relationship with Huang Yuan, so he knew the other party's habits very well.

Although Wei Feng and the others were also from Blue Planet, their relationship with Huang Yuan was average. The latter only had a good relationship with Lu Dajiang.

Therefore, in the past, when the two of them drank, it was always just the two of them.

Sometimes, when Wei Feng and the others were here and Lu Dajiang wanted to invite them for a drink together, Huang Yuan would insist on driving them away and be adamant that only the two of them drank together.

Yet now, Huang Yuan actually took the initiative to suggest inviting Wei Feng and the others to come over for a drink? There was indeed something wrong.

Although Lu Dajiang was usually carefree, he was not stupid. He immediately guessed that Huang Yuan was not here to drink, but to discuss something important.

Yet, he kept such a low profile and did not mention his purpose. It was obviously an extremely important matter.

Calling Wei Feng and the others over was naturally not to drink, but to discuss important matters together.

After Lu Dajiang guessed the reason, he played along and said, "Alright, it's good to have more people!"

Lu Dajiang immediately ordered someone to inform Wei Feng and the others to come over for a drink.

Not long after, Wei Feng and the others arrived with baffled expressions.

There was a big battle tomorrow. It was fine if Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan were drinking, but why did they call the few of them over?

However, Lu Dajiang did not explain. Instead, he said to his subordinates outside, "The few of us are catching up and we don't like to be disturbed. No one is allowed to barge in without permission!"

"Yes, sir!"

His subordinates replied.

Then, Lu Dajiang signaled Wei Feng with his eyes.

Wei Feng immediately understood. He took out some special stones and set them up.

Not long after, a green array was set up and enveloped the entire tent. This was a shielding array that blocked the probing from the outside.

The reason why Huang Yuan, Lu Dajiang, and the others had been acting like this was not because they were worried that the walls had ears. After all, the subordinates who could be arranged to be so near were all Lu Dajiang's trusted aides. Naturally, there was no problem. Even if they heard any secrets, they would surely not spread them.

Lu Dajiang and the others were worried about the experts of Team Origin who were far away. Those people were powerful and could sense the situation even from a great distance.

Especially Luo Feng. With his terrifying 19-star combat strength, it was extremely easy for him to investigate the situation here.

Fortunately, after setting up the array, they could block any perception from the outside. Lu Dajiang and the others could thus discuss important matters here.

Wei Feng had already guessed that something had happened, so he took the initiative to ask, "What exactly is it? Why are you so cautious?"

Lu Dajiang shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Ask him."

He looked at Huang Yuan, who was sitting at the front.
