Because right next to Luyang Prefecture is Lu Yuan’s hometown, Yuzhang Prefecture’s Luling Prefecture, where he had just traveled through time.

Although Dongting Prefecture is in chaos, in Yuzhang Prefecture, the imperial court still has strong power.

Not only is there no major unrest in the local area, but they also send a large amount of money and food to the court every year. Nowadays, nearly one third of the total tax income of the court relies on Yuzhang Prefecture.

In Yuzhang Prefecture, there is also the Inborn Second Stage Grandmaster Yin Huixuan of the Liuyang Sect. He is also an old Grandmaster with Inborn Second Realm cultivation.

With Master Yin present, the Poison Sect from Dongting Prefecture may not dare to invade.

After all, judging from Yin Huixuan’s past conduct, although he is not particularly close to the court, he treats Yuzhang Prefecture as his own territory.

When the Black Wind Gang caused chaos in Luling Prefecture, it was this Grandmaster who went south to South Sea Prefecture and subdued the heroes of Lingnan one by one to quell the chaos.

With such an example, who dares to say that the Grandmaster won’t take action if the Poison Sect really invades?

The deterrence of an Inborn Second Stage expert can be equivalent to tens of thousands of troops, enough to ensure local peace.

So for Lu Yuan, he can always flee to Yuzhang Prefecture if the situation is unfavorable.

From the western Yichang County of Luyang Prefecture to the east, it takes only a little over a hundred miles to reach Dayu County in Luling Prefecture. It would take only two days for a full-force army to traverse the journey.

For him, escaping is not a difficult matter.

Of course, if he can avoid running away, Lu Yuan naturally doesn’t want to run.

He had just achieved the pinnacle of first-rate and was just about to flex his muscles and accumulate resources to break through Inborn, after having built a small foundation in Dongting Prefecture.

Now, if he were to suddenly give it all up and return to Yuzhang Prefecture, who would be content with that?

“Fortunately, while the loss of Baling City is a terrible thing, it also has some advantages.

At least by this, I can be sure that the Poison Sect’s Saintess Grandmaster, in a short time, won’t be able to trouble me.”

Considering the importance of Baling City, the Poison Sect must defend it firmly after capturing it, not allowing the court to take it back.

To withstand the counterattack of the imperial court and defend Baling City, the Saintess of the Poison Sect must be stationed in the city, and she can’t leave.

She, like the other three nailed Da Yue Inborn Grandmasters, became a mascot stationed in a place, suppressing the local area and unable to move easily.

This means that before completely repelling the imperial court’s counterattack, the Poison Sect Saintess cannot do anything else.

This naturally includes not being able to assassinate Lu Yuan.

Without the threat of an Inborn Grandmaster, the shackles that originally bound Lu Yuan’s hands and feet no longer exist.

With his strength, he had no fear below the Inborn realm.

As long as the Saintess of the Poison Sect does not take action, other people like Poison Sect Master Lan Zhaoyun are not worth mentioning.

“So, this is the best time for me to accumulate and improve my strength over the years. If I miss it, I don’t know when the next chance will be.” Lu Yuan realized.

Without the threat of an Inborn Grandmaster, he was the top expert in Dongting Prefecture in practice.

With tens of thousands of soldiers in his hand, he should take advantage of such good conditions and make a fortune, or else it would be unfair to the many years of his own hard work.

“Seize this opportunity, break Luyang City first, destroy the Seven Star Sect, and then take the opportunity to fish for other benefits.”

Lu Yuan stood up and called for his many disciples for an overnight military discussion.

In the foreseeable future, he will undergo a major strategic shift. Such a big matter cannot be done without discussing it with his disciples.

Lu Yuan didn’t intend to make decisions alone; he knew the wisdom of the crowd outweighs that of an individual.

The power of one person is limited; gathering the wisdom of everyone is the right choice for mortals before achieving immortality.

He could reach today’s position not only by relying on himself but also with the help of many disciples.

That night, the commander’s tent was brightly lit, and many disciples were awakened from their sleep and gathered in their master’s tent.

The second day.

The sky was just getting light when the horns rang out in the army. Soldiers crawled out of their tents, joined their respective teams, and lined up to eat the breakfast prepared by the cooks.

Even earlier, some teams had already lined up in battle formation, according to their battalion units, outside Luyang City, ready for battle.

Boom, boom, boom!

The dull drumming sound echoed as Lu Yuan gave military orders from the stage. Then the soldiers from Linwu County’s First Camp, who were forced to rise, carried siege weapons and slowly surged towards the city wall under the pressure of swords and guns.

As they walked, they also shouted at the city according to the instructions they had received.

“Senior brothers, I am Liu Cheng, an external disciple of our Sect! We are all fellow disciples, please don’t kill me!”

“Heroes of the Seven Star Sect, I am from Linwu County, and my home is at the foot of Mount Yuanluo. Is Senior Brother Zhao from the city here? I am your neighbor.”

“Brothers, the imperial court’s soldiers have surrounded the city, and the whole Luyang Prefecture has surrendered. There are only two or three thousand people in the city, you can’t defend it, you should surrender.”

“Senior brothers, the court has promised that as long as we surrender, our lives won’t be pursued.”

“Think about your parents, wives, children, and your own life. Brothers, surrender. ”

At this moment, the conviction of the defending soldiers on the city wall wavered under the persuasion of these familiar friends of the Seven Star Sect disciples.

It goes without saying for the local people in the city, as they were forcibly captured and didn’t have any loyalty or fondness for the Seven Star Sect.

Even the core disciples of the Seven Star Sect saw familiar faces and heard the moving persuasion, they couldn’t help but loosen their grip on their swords.

Of course, some high -ranking elders of the Seven Star Sect were furious and ordered their subordinates to shoot arrows and throw stones to kill the traitors.

However, very few complied with the order.

Apart from a few dozen arrows flying out sporadically and killing more than a dozen people under the city, there were no other effects.

Everyone could see that the Seven Star Sect was done for.

No one wanted to be buried with them.

Even after hearing the persuasion of their acquaintances below, some high-ranking elders of the Seven Star Sect began to waver.

Just like Feng Zhijie before.

These high-ranking members of the Seven Star Sect were older and had more to lose, which made them more afraid of death.

Knowing that they might not have to die because there was a way out, their original firm resolve to resist weakened.

Maybe surrender was not an unconsidered option.

After all, for them, the martial artists, being defeated and acknowledging the superior as the leader or big brother was a common occurrence.

What does it matter if the Fierce Warrior serves as the Martial Arts Alliance Leader?

Such thought went through the minds of some Seven Star Sect disciples as they comforted themselves..
