Daqin: Swallowing the Starry Sky, intercepting Jingwei

Chapter 22



Seeing this scene, everyone was envious.

“envious!”

“I was lucky enough to save the young lady’s life on the way.”

“Alas, why don’t I have such good luck?”

“You think too much. Even if you save the young lady, you will not be favored by her.”

“Why? I am in the late first-class stage, much stronger than Li Xuan”

“It’s not a question of strength. Let me tell you this: take a good look at yourself in the mirror and you’ll know.”

“You! You insult people!”

“Li Xuan is young, but his abilities are not bad; and most importantly, he is so handsome.”

“Yes, if I had a handsome appearance like Li Xuan, I would definitely be favored by the second lady.”

“Why is it the second lady and not the eldest lady?”

“Are you blind? The eldest lady obviously likes Li Xuan. Besides, I like the second lady more.”

············

Various discussions were heard.

Li Xuan ignored them, his face calm.

He walked forward and said softly:”Miss, I’m here.”

In the public eye, if he called her Madam, it would cause some hatred.

So Li Xuan followed the crowd and called Madam Hu Miss. Madam

Hu paused, her face obviously unhappy.

But she didn’t say anything.

She opened her white lips and said:”Li Xuan, you are here”

“By the way, how is your cultivation going?”

Li Xuan smiled confidently:”Just made a breakthrough.”

Mrs. Hu’s face was delighted, and she was still thinking about talking.

But at this time

“Ahem!”

Lord Huoyu, who was in the front, coughed twice. Upon hearing this, Madam Hu knew that they were going to discuss matters.

So she did not continue to speak:”Li Xuan, I’ll go over first.”

After saying this, she walked back quickly.

At this time, Lord Huoyu moistened his throat and said:”I am meeting you all today because of an important matter.”

“Three days ago, the first batch of personnel were evacuated from the agate mine.”

“Today is the day for the second batch of personnel to evacuate. All the remaining personnel will be withdrawn.”

“But because of the large number of people, there are miners, helpers, and their families”

“So I am worried that we don’t have enough people and will be in danger if we retreat.”

Lord Huoyu did not keep us in suspense and explained the situation directly.

“I heard these days that the three wolves with broken hair are gathering bandits from all over the place.”

“I’m worried they’ll target the mines and the workers.”

“So, I want you to go to the mine to provide support just in case.”

At the mine.

There were hundreds of people there before.

There were nearly 250 guards alone, and there were many miners, helpers, and family members. One third of them were withdrawn a few days ago.

Two thirds are still in the mine.

Because the mine is huge, there are many equipments, and there are family members, etc., the situation is complicated and they cannot be evacuated immediately. It was not until today that everything was handled.

Hundreds of people, and many family members, walking on the road in a mighty manner, will definitely attract the attention of the Broken Hair Three Wolves.

They have recently gathered a lot of bandits and may choose to attack the withdrawn personnel.

After all, attacking these people can severely damage the power of Fire Rain Villa.

There are also many miners among them who can capture and mine agate.

So, we have to be on guard!

“The purpose of this time is to call you to the mine for support”

“However, it is just you guys, and we will not send more guards to support you.”

Lord Huoyu looked at everyone and explained

“Because we don’t know the purpose of the three wolves, once they all withdraw to support the mine, Fire Rain Villa may be in danger.”

“There are also ordinary guards who are slow and cannot provide support in time.”

The purpose of Lord Huoyu is to send some masters to provide support this time.

There is no other way!

Because the purpose of the Three Wolves with Broken Hair is unclear!

Once more masters and guards are sent to provide support, Huoyu Villa will become empty.

So only a small number of masters can be selected to provide support.

On the one hand, the masters are faster and can quickly provide support to the mine.

On the other hand, selecting only some masters will not affect the overall combat effectiveness of Huoyu Villa.

After speaking, Lord Huoyu looked at everyone and asked,”Do you have any objections?”

Lord Huoyu did not order the crowd because he could not do it.

The strength of these people is at least second-rate.

This kind of strength is equivalent to the three leaders of Menghu Mountain.

They are powerful and are all guests of Huoyu Villa.

Most of them were recruited with money, rather than trained since childhood to be guards who are loyal to Lord Huoyu.

Hearing this, many people looked at each other and frowned.

Obviously, they did not want to go to support the mine because there were too few people to support.

The Three Wolves with Broken Hair are extremely powerful. There are also many bandits, and they are extremely vicious.

Once they encounter them, even if the support is finally victorious, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.

They are not guards of Huoyu Villa, and their loyalty to Lord Huoyu is limited.

What’s more, this mission is extremely dangerous.

Someone hesitated and said,”Lord Huoyu, there are too few people to support this time.”

When someone spoke, the others immediately echoed.

“Yes, there are only ten of us, too few.”

“How can there be only one acquired strong man, and still at the initial stage, to fight against the Three Wolves with Broken Hair?”

“I don’t want to go. It’s too dangerous.”

“If the number of people doubles, I will agree to go to support”

“With this number of people, just one of the remaining three wolves can destroy us.”

··············

Everyone started talking at once, shaking their heads.

Seeing this, Lord Huoyu frowned.

Although he was very dissatisfied with the performance of these people,

?But there was nothing they could do.

Because these people were all recruited guests, and they only knew how to do things for money.

Mrs. Hu, who was standing by, saw this scene and was slightly angry.

These people were all recruited by her father with a lot of money.

Now they are just going to support, and they are worried and afraid, and they are making excuses.

In this state, how can they defend Huoyu Villa?

Besides!

It’s not like there is no manpower over there in the mine.

There are nearly two hundred guards over there. There are more than ten second-rate and first-rate masters, and three acquired strongmen.

In addition to these people, as long as the three people of Broken Hair Three Wolves are not all dispatched, they can basically resist.

The danger is actually not high!

And.

If you can’t beat them, won’t you run away by yourself?

It’s obvious that they just want money and want to make a lot of money from Huoyu Villa.

At this time.

Li Xuan stepped forward and his voice sounded faintly:”I am willing to go for this support.” After the words fell

, the scene was quiet.

Others originally wanted to refuse, or tried to ask for a lot.

Now they were disrupted by Li Xuan’s voice.

Many people showed dissatisfaction and glared at Li Xuan.

Some even showed a hint of resentment on their faces.

In fact, they didn’t want to go! They just wanted to extort more money.

Because such support had happened many times before Li Xuan arrived.

Every time, they would find various excuses to shirk their responsibility.

Then they would extort a sum of money from Huoyu Villa.

However!

This time, Li Xuan’s voice broke their wishful thinking.
