Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!

Chapter 1139 - 906: No Words Needed, Just Rescue

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan thought to himself, "This is going to be a complete disaster!"

According to the usual conventions, Shi Hu is definitely in the deepest, most difficult place to reach, setting up a damn tricky situation.

For a moment, he genuinely thought Old Dog’s suggestion was worth considering. Just thinking about Shi Hu’s unending chaotic energy, even if they managed to rescue him, it would take some effort to tame him.

Having a well-behaved, docile, blank-slate little tiger would definitely be more appealing than Shi Hu.

But since they were already here, they should at least check things out, especially since he also had the idea of using this new instance for Qing Niao and Little Skylark to level up.

Sang Chuanlu, upon hearing his intention to take a look, did not refuse.

Shi Hu, although reckless, managed to break in without being discovered by the Big Brother, which is quite a feat. Now, finding a way to seek help from him indicates that Daoist You has the ability to solve this problem in Shi Hu’s mind. The Lord’s mansion is beset by internal and external troubles, even if they call in all of his younger sisters, they’re still stretched thin, so an insider’s help is a tremendous boon.

However, as the two of them just emerged from the flower hall, a few mountain masters, not seeming to be friendly, surrounded them.

"Where is the Lord?"

"Doesn’t Lord Sang respect us? We’ve been left here for several days."

"Several mountain masters have come to pay respects, yet Lord Sang still hasn’t shown up. What does this mean?"

......

The barrage of questioning was filled with conflict. Jiang Yuan took a glance, whoops, all high-level monsters!

There were two with especially long health bars, presumably body cultivators;

And two others, marked as "food" in the system details, making him curious to try out what this new breed of demon beast might taste like.

"Please, everyone, let’s calm down. As I explained yesterday, the Lord is dealing with important matters with other lords and should be back within a day or two.

If there’s an urgent matter, you can tell me, and I’ll pass it on; if there’s no urgent matter and you just want to see the Lord, please rest in the other courtyard and wait patiently."

Sang Chuanlu gave a soft smile, nodded slightly at those mountain masters, and turned to Jiang Yuan gesturing him to follow, ignoring those folks.

After they’d distanced themselves, Sang Chuanlu sighed via secret communication: "Sigh, it’s all Shi Hu’s fault. Big Brother has been stuck in his cultivation for years, and this time, due to the seal loosening and polluting odors leaking out, it nearly caused a major disaster, leaving him juggling many issues at once.

Meanwhile, these mountain masters are all watching like hawks, thinking my brother’s realm isn’t high enough, and they’re using this chance to attack, hoping to replace him as the new lord.

After all, the Power of the Celestial Dao’s Remnant hidden by the Demon Realm Alliance has been causing a stir over the wilderness recently.

Some people inevitably want to take shortcuts but are worried about shouldering the responsibility. If they could become a leader, harnessing the power of heaven and earth to get a share would be much easier, causing quite a headache every day."

He initially wanted to complain a bit to let this Daoist You know how big a mess his friend caused. When the time came, if they could rescue him, they’d settle the score accordingly;

If they couldn’t rescue him, it was self-inflicted, and the Sang Clan cleaning up the mess were indeed left in a difficult position, with no one to blame.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuan misunderstood.

The system’s assessment of those mountain masters was very poor, and defeating them counted as eliminating evil for the good of the people.

At this moment, Sang Chuanlu looked quite apprehensive and distressed, making him think the other party was hesitant to act, so he immediately replied on the private channel: "Need help?"

Sang Chuanlu: ???

What does this mean? Didn’t the younger sister say this person was combative and skilled in battle? Facing a row of high realm demon cultivators and demon beasts, he actually wanted to act directly?

Seeing him hesitate slightly, Jiang Yuan thought he had a lot of scruples and quickly added: "If we join forces, it shouldn’t be difficult to take them down one by one."

Sang Chuanlu was quite moved, as these mountain masters were never good from the start, but the Big Brother handled everything so carefully that they never got the chance to make a move.

If they could seize this opportunity to eliminate them all, it would be a good thing.

Especially since news of the Power of the Celestial Dao’s Remnant had spread, causing undercurrents in the wilderness, reducing disorderly elements could make the Yunmeng Mountain area relatively more stable and easier to manage.

"Since this matter concerns six mountain masters, I can’t make the decision alone, I need to consult with Big Brother." He replied tactfully, lowering his voice further in secret communication, "If we do act, I do thank Daoist You for your generous assistance in advance. When this big merit is achieved, you won’t go without rewards."

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, nodding.

If they really could act and take them down one by one, he’d definitely throw that big-eyed ox into the slaughterhouse first. Then, he’d let the small yard members try the best quality meat, most suitable for barbecue as recognized by the system, how delicious would that be!

After turning a few more corners, they went out the back door of the palace group and saw a blue flower field from afar.

Light blue, dark blue, with a faint glowing true blue mixed together, as the autumn wind blew at night, the light blue pollen floated up, like a veil covering with a strong sense of fantasy.

"These flowers are called Blue Tangs and are extremely sensitive to changes in the surrounding atmosphere. My brother placed the entrance to the seal under the flower field to continuously monitor whether the seal is loose or polluted odors are leaking. It was because of this anomaly in the flower field that it was detected in time, preventing a bigger disaster." After Sang Chuanlu finished speaking, he gestured for the other to follow him into the flower field.

Jiang Yuan was still looking at the analysis that popped up in his vision.

The system thoroughly explained how Shi Hu broke into the seal, and how Sang Lishan detected the anomaly and managed to control the situation in detail. He casually replied and followed in stride.
