Chapter 693: Thousand-Person Raid

"I see…" Chen Guan replied.

"However, they're in Baihu Main City, and before the Fourth Rebirth reaches the Huangcheng stage they should have no interaction with us; besides, we only refused a purchase and investment, it's not enough for them to hold a grudge over this." Su Sheng wasn't too concerned, and moreover the Shenhua Guild just gave Qiancheng Muxue a hard blow, maybe we could even stand on the same side.

"Not really certain…" At this moment, Chen Guan's message continued to come through.

"?" Su Sheng was a bit puzzled.

"Normally, it should be like this, but…"

"Xuan Yuan Hua Di, if I'm not mistaken, should be one of the contemporary direct heirs of the Xuan Yuan Conglomerate, Xuan Yuan Ye."

"Sheng-ge, you're an outsider, you don't know much, and besides you've served in the army for seven years."

"Although my circle and the Xuan Yuan Conglomerate's princeling circle are quite different, they're both second-generation circles, so I've heard some related stuff."

"That guy Xuan Yuan Ye, how to put it… he has ability, but he's a bit petty, hmm… you could think of him as an upgraded Ye Tianzi."

After reading Chen Guan's message, Su Sheng raised an eyebrow.

Xuan Yuan clan… have people like that? In theory they shouldn't, according to Xuan Yuan's education…

But a big forest has all kinds of birds, so it's normal…

As for the direct heir status, he probably assigned it to himself… the Xuan Yuan clan's heir…

"Don't worry, it's not a big issue unless his mind slips and he provokes our Yan Huang over this trivial matter?"

"We Yan Huang aren't made of mud," Su Sheng still wasn't too worried.

Beep beep~

But at this moment, another Private Chat pinged.

Huan Jie?

"Alright, that's it for now. If nothing, just bring the brothers back; Huan Jie, find me," Chen Guan said after the message, then ended the Private Chat with Chen Guan.

"A-Sheng, got a minute?"

Seeing Huan Jie's message, Su Sheng replied directly: "I'm upgrading at the Yan Huang Base, actually have time, what's up?"

"A major quest appeared on the town center's bulletin board."

Seeing Huan Jie's message, Su Sheng raised an eyebrow.

"Similar to that previous bandit camp thing?"

Regarding that earlier bandit camp mission, Su Sheng was quite impressed; thanks to that mission, the Yan Huang Base could leap from village size straight to town size.

"Pretty much, but it seems not as difficult as the bandit camp."

"Alright, I'll go back and check now."

Su Sheng glanced at the game timer, still over seven hours left, then used a Return City Scroll.

…

…

Back at the town center, Su Sheng glanced at the old scholar wandering around the Spirit Tree, then headed to the bulletin board spot.

At this point, Lin Huan, Su Ba, Lu Zhe, and the other Yan Huang Core Members were already waiting.

"Let me take a look."

Su Sheng immediately looked at the bulletin board.

Although the base is fully built, daily maintenance, repairs, and some facility expansions still consume building materials.

Therefore, the town center's bulletin board still refreshes quests.

Limited-time Thousand-Person Raid quest:

Xianluo Zhicheng.

(Countdown: 21 hours 12 minutes)

Difficulty rating: four-star.

Mission description: Due to the town's Teleport Array spatial frequency, it accidentally linked to a Teleport Array frequency of a fallen land.

Within a short time, the town's Teleport Array can transport to the location of Xianluo Zhicheng.

As an Imperial Lord, you can organize manpower to explore Xianluo Zhicheng, perhaps gaining some unexpected loot.

Note: Because the spatial channel is unstable, the maximum transport is one thousand people.

Restriction: Chairman accepts.

"Go!"

Su Sheng immediately made the call.

He was worried about slow leveling, so why not go for this big raid now.

Moreover, the quests refreshed on the bulletin board are generally level-appropriate; the current mainstream level is around fifty, so you won't encounter seventy or eighty level quests directly.

"Huan Jie, allocate manpower."

"Kong Lang hasn't returned yet; have him come back and keep an eye, we'll organize part of the team to set out from home."

"Hmm… bring Fengwu (Crazy) and Fengwu (Wind) the sibling pair," Su Sheng added, "If they don't want to, never mind."

However, Fengwu (Crazy) Jiu Tian has passed, and his sister Fengwu (Wind) Jiu Tian will most likely agree.

"Okay."

Lin Huan nodded.

There are about seven more hours, not sure how long this Dungeon will take.

Because the difficulty is four-star, Lin Huan didn't hold back, directly drawing people from Hidden Dragon.

Compared to ordinary Yan Huang members, aside from the Assassin Alliance, Hidden Dragon is indeed a notch stronger; the other members who weren't selected have nothing to say.

Core Members Su Sheng, Lin Huan, Su Ba, Li Wenwan, Lu Zhe, and Shen Yang followed.

Then the sibling pair Fengwu (Crazy) and Fengwu (Wind).

Huang Mingxin and Wu Zhaodi, leading the group outside…

Bai Pangpang also follows Jiu Ge and them on the other side…

Fortunately Fengwu is willing to join as well, and with a few other Priest Guild players, that's enough.

One thousand people, must be arranged reasonably.

Melee, ranged, physical, magical, support… roaming.

It took about ten minutes to gather a thousand hands, the core being members of Hidden Dragon, so there's no worry about the technical side.

"Explorer…"

Just as Su Sheng was preparing to set out with the people, an old voice suddenly came from the side.

Su Sheng, surprised, looked up toward the side.

It was the old scholar who studies elves.

"Um, um, is there something?"

Su Sheng glanced at the Spirit Tree beside him, noticing nothing unusual.

"Are you about to set out on an expedition?" the old scholar asked Su Sheng.

"Yes…" Su Sheng nodded.

The old scholar has already settled in Yanhuang Town, and like the Dwarf Race, is now a resident of Yanhuang Town.

Moreover, there's nothing for an NPC to hide.

"I don't know where you're going… but this morning, when I used the Teleport Array to return to Zhuque City to fetch something… I sensed a trace of spirit breath."

"Perhaps your destination is related to elves; if there's anything that can aid the Spirit Tree's growth, please bring it back."

The old scholar looked at Su Sheng and spoke.

"No problem." Su Sheng nodded directly.

He wasn't surprised at how the old scholar sensed the spirit breath; after all, he's a professional researcher of the elf race and naturally has his own methods.

If that fallen place truly relates to elves and contains something that can help the Spirit Tree grow, bringing it back oneself isn't a problem.

Set out!

Then Su Sheng swept his hand dramatically!

Over a thousand people, under countless gazes, passed through the Teleport Array.

Su Sheng directly chose Xianluo Zhicheng.

The old scholar escorted them all the way, watching the thousand‑plus who vanished into the Teleport Array, his gaze lingering…

Is this sudden connection to Xianluo Zhicheng truly a coincidence?

Perhaps…

…

…

On the other side, Baihu Main City.

Qiancheng Gongzi, Ye Tianzi, Xuan Yuan Hua Di, the chairmen of three great guilds gathered together…
