Chapter 1022

Before the last battle at Nanlin Village, the clan head had also offered reassurance and encouragement.

But this time the enemy was stronger, the battle would be on a larger scale, yet the family group chat was completely silent.

The clan head and several uncles all said nothing.

Could it be that they, like him, were all hesitating too?

Just as he was thinking, the scenery before his eyes changed at tremendous speed.

The next moment, Zhao Chi appeared on a hillside.

It was a rocky hill.

All around were bare grey stones, with even very little soil.

Zhao Chi recognized this place — this was the outskirts of Jiaoya Town.

Jiaoya Town was built on this small rocky hill; to the west was a cliff, and below the cliff ran a great river.

To the east was a gentle slope, where Zhao Chi and the others were currently standing.

Looking up, one could see the city walls and buildings on the mountaintop in the distance.

Jiaoya Town was a town-level territory.

The range of the formation here was much larger than the one at Nanlin Village, and there was interference from the formation ahead, so everyone could only teleport to this spot.

There were roughly over four hundred people around, all of them lords.

That included sixty-five alien-race lords, as well as over three hundred lords from two villages.

The lords were all looking around, and the lords of each family slowly gathered together.

"Zhao Chi, over here."

Su Qin waved from the left.

She didn't wait for Zhao Chi to come over, but ran over, took Zhao Chi's hand, and headed toward the Zhao family's direction.

The Zhao family genealogy had already been updated, and everyone knew that Su Qin had become Zhao Chi's concubine.

So Su Qin dared to openly pull Zhao Chi over.

Several dozen Zhao family lords stood silently.

Everyone was very quiet.

Zhao Shizhang, upon seeing Zhao Chi, gave a slight nod, but didn't say a single word.

The other families were all just as quiet; only the Qi family had some sounds of argument.

"Zhao Chi, look over there."

Su Qin pointed at the hillside to the north.

There was also a group of people there, numbering around three hundred by the look of it.

Presumably those were the other "friendly forces."

Not just the hillside to the north — there was also a group to the south, and another group at a position further down.

A rough estimate of numbers suggested there should be five alien-race units, totaling two thousand lords.

Among them, the number of alien-race lords was around three hundred.

With a scale this large, today's battle was bound to be extremely intense.

Even extremely bloody.

He didn't know how many more people would be lost after this battle.
