Chapter 82 The Beginning of the War
Upon hearing the sect leader's order, the demon cultivators below showed bitterness on their faces.

The two people sent earlier have died, and the matter has most likely been exposed. The Qingyun Sect must have been prepared, and a rash attack would definitely end in disaster.

But the Demon Lord always keeps his word and no one can persuade him. If they are really mad at him, they will be scolded at best, but if they are not careful, they will be destroyed.

At this time, everyone looked at the Right Protector standing on the right side of the Demon Lord. He was usually the most loved by the Demon Lord and might be able to persuade him a little.

On the right side of the Demon Lord stood a smiling young man. He had a big belly and looked very fat, but his limbs were very thin. He looked like a big meatball stuck on two chopsticks.

The right guardian noticed everyone's gazes, narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Master, I think this can be done, but we have to change the plan a little bit."

The left protector on the left side of the Demon Lord frowned slightly when he heard the words and glanced at the other party with displeasure, but he did not dare to act rashly since the Demon Lord was here.

"Oh? What do you think, Right Protector?" Duan Tianya asked with raised eyebrows.

"The four major families in Qingyun Territory are protecting Qingyun Sect. If they want to wipe out the other party, they must go through one of the foundation-building families. Not long ago, I heard that the three major families wiped out the Liu family. Now only an empty shell is left. This has caused a gap in the protection of the four major families."

The Demon Lord's eyes sparkled, and he said, "If that's the case, then if we attack from the direction of the Liu family, we can reach the heart of the Qingyun Region."

The right protector shook his head and said, "Not entirely. The two disciples we sent out have died. Qingyun Sect must be prepared and will strictly guard the Liu family. We can do the opposite and send a group of people to feint an attack on the Liu family, and then send another group to attack the Xu family unexpectedly. The strongest Xu family, Qingyun Sect, will definitely relax its defense. Then, we can destroy the Xu family and go straight into the heart of Qingyun Domain!"

For the Yinmo Sect, the four major families can be destroyed with a wave of a hand. In terms of strength, it doesn't make much difference which one to attack. It mainly depends on where the Qingyun Sect focuses on defending.

After listening to his analysis, the other demon cultivators also understood and nodded in agreement.

The demon lord was delighted: "Okay, I will do as the Right Protector says!"

Ten days later.

Chen An received a secret letter from Zhao Hu, who asked Chen Yu to take it back to the family.

The letter said that after Zhao Hu recovered his foundation and returned to the sect, he had completed his Qi training in the past six years and was preparing to build his foundation.

Recently, Qingyun Sect has been acquiring resources on a large scale, and seems to be preparing for war. Let Chen An make preparations early. If he encounters a crisis, he can come to Qingyun Sect, and he can use his connections to provide him with temporary protection.

After reading the letter, Chen An looked thoughtful. It seemed that Zhao Hu was no longer a young man with a foolish look on his face, and seemed to be doing well in the sect.

This information was not very useful to him, but the other party was thoughtful enough to use his connections to protect him, and did not let his cultivation go to waste.

As for the other party's Qi training being complete, Zhao Hu's foundation has recovered and his training speed is not slow, this is also expected.

Considering the other party's qualifications of superior spiritual roots, even without the Foundation Establishment Pill, this breakthrough is almost certain.

"Who wrote this letter to you? Could it be from one of the senior sisters in the sect?"

Chen Yu asked curiously, blinking his big eyes.

Hearing her ask this, Chen An knew that Zhao Hu definitely did not deliver the letter to Chen Yu personally.

"Nothing, just a good friend of mine."

Chen An warned: "Don't tell anyone about this, including your master."

Seeing his mysterious face, Chen Yu nodded, not quite understanding: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep it a secret for you, but can you tell me which female cultivator you are with?"

There was constant chattering in his ears, and Chen An was overwhelmed and felt inexplicably irritated.

He tried his best, including coaxing and deceiving, to finally send Chen Yu away.

After calming down, Chen An changed his mind and decided that it was better for her to misunderstand him. This would allow him to further conceal the relationship between him and Zhao Hu.

Not long after, Chen Qing called back all the members of the Chen family except Chen Yu to Yunwu Mountain in the name of convening a family meeting in advance.

Just when the tribesmen were excitedly preparing to attend the meeting, many of them were inexplicably conscripted and Chen Qing arranged for them to patrol the area near the foot of the mountain day and night.

Originally, many people complained, but as time went on, the news that the demon cultivators were about to invade Qingyun Sect gradually spread. These people in the clan began to take it seriously and became alert and on guard against the demon cultivators' attacks at all times.

Chen An found through the formation that the entire family had been mobilized, and he was very satisfied. The entire Chen family was united, and even if they were really attacked by demon cultivators, they would have strong resistance. But what he was more worried about was that so far, Qingyun Sect had not sent even one person to defend Black Wind Mountain.

Especially the Qixia Mountain of the Liu family. The Liu family is now in decline and all the members of the family have died. There are only a few Qi-cultivating cultivators from the Xu and Wang families who manage their businesses on the mountain. If the demon cultivators directly attack that line, they will be able to enter an empty space and go straight to the heart of the Qingyun Domain!
"It seems that Qingyun Sect does not care about the lives of the major families. They must have used their main forces to defend their core territory."

Chen An smiled coldly. Fortunately, he had never relied on outsiders. With the protection of the Phantom Light Killing Array, the Chen family would definitely be much safer than the Xu and Wang families.

He was just about to check if there was anything missing in Yunwu Mountain when he saw Chen Qing visiting outside the cave.

"problem occurs!"

Chen Qing rushed in anxiously, sighing, with a grim look on his face: "The demon cultivator is coming!"

"Where are you?"

"We have already occupied Qixia Mountain."

Immediately, Chen Qing told Chen An the latest information one by one.

Originally, the Qingyun Sect didn't care about the lives of the major families at all, and did not send anyone to defend the vicinity of Black Wind Mountain.

Naturally, the demon cultivators directly occupied Qixia Mountain, and used it as a springboard to concentrate their efforts on attacking a large spiritual stone mine nearby.

There were many Qingyun Sect monks defending the mine. Although they were unable to resist the aggressive demon cultivators, fortunately they had prepared a formation to protect it in advance, and the demon cultivators could not break through it for a while. The two sides temporarily came to a stalemate near the mine.

And it was discovered later that the Demon Sect split its forces into two. One force seemed to be feinting an attack on Qixia Mountain, while the other main force was planning to attack the Xu family in Fengming Mountain. However, after discovering that Qixia Mountain was unguarded, they directly mobilized all their manpower and then killed their way to the spirit stone mine.

Chen An sneered and said, "Qixia Mountain is not close to us, let them fight, we just need to stabilize Yunwu Mountain."

"I'm afraid it won't hold."

Chen Qing said bitterly, "We received news from the mine, asking each family to send a foundation-building cultivator to the mine to support us until the reinforcements from Qingyun Sect arrive. In addition, we and the Xu family must send two each!"

"what?"

Chen An's face turned pale. It would have been fine if he didn't send anyone to defend Black Wind Mountain, but he even wanted to draw cultivators from various major families to protect Qingyun Sect's spirit stone mine?
"No!" Chen An blurted out in anger, but regretted it right after he said it. Now they can't afford to offend Qingyun Sect.

Chen Qing was almost crying, begging, "Ancestor, the Qingyun Sect is right behind us. If we want to defeat the Yin Demon Sect, we have to rely on them. Now is not the time to act on impulse. Even if we run away now, they will come after us later."

"Okay, call Chen Fengshuo and Chen Zishun."

Qingyun Sect, we have a long way to go!

Chen An took a deep breath and calmed himself down a little. He knew this truth, but he just felt a little uncomfortable.

Hearing that he agreed, Chen Qing's expression relaxed a little, but when he heard that Chen Fengshuo and two others would be sent, he was delighted and left happily to call for help.

In less than a moment, the two arrived at the cave, and Chen An told them what had happened.

As time passed, their expressions became increasingly gloomy.

"You are the strongest, why don't you go, but let us two go instead?" Chen Zishun didn't dare to say anything, but Chen Fengshuo was a little indignant.

"I still have to stay in Yunwu Mountain. There are disciples of Qingyun Sect at the mineral vein. As long as we are careful, there should be no problem. But if the evil cultivators attack Yunwu Mountain, can you go up and hold them off?" Chen An asked back.

Chen Fengshuo was speechless. Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. If the evil cultivator really attacked, the danger would be even greater.

Seeing that Chen Fengshuo was silent, Chen An quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, both of you. When you get there, don't rush in and try to stay to the side when fighting. If you encounter danger, just run away. Don't worry about whether Qingyun Sect will punish you or not. Saving your life is the most important thing."

Chen An gave the instructions again and took out two stacks of second-level talismans.

"Here are the Golden Sword Talisman for attack, the Cold Gang Talisman for control, the Water Element Shield for defense, and the Flying Star Talisman for running away. They can allow you to burst out at an astonishing speed in a short period of time. Without special means, even ordinary cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building will find it difficult to catch up."

Chen Fengshuo and the other two looked at the dozens of second-level talismans, and their faces became much better. They were even a little moved. If they couldn't survive with so many talismans, they might as well become pigs in their next life.
