Peerless Allure: Nine Series Summoner

Chapter 400
"Since that's the case, why do they still rely on those external mystic masters?"

After hearing the news, Ling Lan was surprised, but also a little puzzled.

Under the banner of the Fuxing family, the Ling family wantonly recruited mystic masters, while at the same time hiding their true strength. What exactly are they trying to do?
Seeing his daughter's solemn expression, Ling Yi guessed that she might have misunderstood what he meant.

He explained to Ling Lan in a low voice: "Actually speaking, the purpose of the Ling family is the same as ours. The reason why the Ling family wants to develop a power secretly is because they want to fight against the Assassin Star."

Ling Lan couldn't understand, "Since the Ling family's strength is all hidden in the dark, then what's the point of recruiting these mystic masters?"

"That's just a cover to confuse outsiders." Ling Yi said: "Father has already discussed with Patriarch Ling, and decided to fight against Assassin with them."

"Daughter, what do you think?"

Ling Yi naturally hoped that Ling Lan could fight side by side with him.In this way, the Four Divine Beasts can also become their support.

It's just that when the daughter grows up, she will always have her own ideas.If Ling Lan didn't want to join the Ling family's team, Ling Yi wouldn't force her either.

……

After learning about the Ling family's real plan from Ling Yi, Ling Lan readily agreed to fight against the Assassin Star with the Ling family forces.

Ling Lan was still worried at first. Compared with the Assassin Star, which has been in business for many years, the strength of himself and the four beasts is very different.

Now there is another Ling family.At any rate, the Ling family is also an aristocratic family that has been passed down for hundreds of generations. With its foundation there, its strength will definitely not disappoint.

After the two parties reached an agreement, various matters were intensively prepared.

In the secret room where only the Patriarchs of the Ling family knew the location, Si Rongyu, Ling Lan's father and daughter, the four god beasts, and the core elders of the Ling family were sitting around a huge round table.

A map was placed on the round table, and it could be easily identified from the various river valleys and mountain ranges marked on the map. What was depicted on the map was Buzhou Mountain, which was thousands of miles away from the Ling family.

According to the information obtained by the spies sent by the Ling family, Mount Buzhou is the location of the headquarters of the assassination star of the first-class country.

"... Buzhou Mountain can be said to be strictly guarded by the Assassins. In addition to the outermost layer of defensive formations, they even sent a lot of people to guard it."

"That's right. Especially at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, it can be said that there is a post at five steps and a post at ten steps. Even the most inconspicuous trails are guarded by two people."

The night pearl inlaid on the lampstand emits a soft halo, covering the entire secret room in a hazy white light.

Pointing to the map on the table, the two elders of the Ling family told everyone present the defenses on Mount Buzhou.

"This time, among the spies we sent out, only one came back alive..."

The Ling family elder who spoke had silver hair all over his head, and there were tears in his eyes.

For this final battle, the Ling family exhausted all their efforts.They sent out five batches of well-trained spies to Buzhou Mountain to inquire about news.

Hundreds of lives were sacrificed to get this detailed map.

It's a pity that those who lost their lives because of this will never come back.

"My uncle's condolences. As long as everyone here works together to defeat the Assassin Star and make these ants in the darkness no longer have a foothold, it will be the best consolation to the spirits of the dead brothers."

Ling Wei patted the old man's shoulder, his voice was also painful.

Ling Lan sat aside and listened, although she felt regretful in her heart, she didn't show any expression on her face.

The grievance between the orthodox summoner and the assassin star is not a conspiracy in the big family, but a real war.

Since it is a war, how can there be no casualties?

If this cancer can be eliminated in one fell swoop, no matter how heavy the casualties are, it will be worth it.

But if they fail, more and more people will die because of this in the future.

"Now the situation is on the verge of an arrow, and we have to act. Instead of wallowing in the pain of losing your comrades, you should discuss some practical matters."

Long Aotian spoke coolly at the side.

The four divine beasts were regarded as honored guests by Ling Wei, and the rest of the Ling family naturally did not dare to neglect them.In addition, although Long Aotian's words were harsh, they were all the truth, so no one dared to say anything.

"Since attacking from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain is not feasible, it is better to attack directly from the mountain."

"This method is good. It just avoids the eyes and ears of the patrolling people. But there is one more thing, what should we do with this defensive formation?"

"Also, with so many of us, we can't stay together in a cloud, right? Why don't we divide our troops into two groups..."

The atmosphere in the secret room froze for a moment, then became active again.

Everyone offered their words and suggestions one after another.Si Rongyu never spoke, just quietly listening to everyone's discussion.

"I can unlock the defensive formation at the foot of the mountain."

Just when everyone was worrying, Ling Lan suddenly spoke.

Her voice is like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, soft and beautiful.And because the heart is full of self-confidence, there is a convincing power in the words.

All of a sudden, the noisy secret room fell silent, and most people's eyes were on Ling Lan.

In the eyes of people who don't know her strength, Ling Lan is a young man who is slightly better than her peers.And she was able to enter the secret room and sit here because of her father Ling Yi and the four beasts.

And she actually intervened in such an important matter, which made some experienced elders of the Ling family a little dissatisfied.

More importantly, Ling Lan boasted that she could crack the defensive formation around Buzhou Mountain, which made those elders and masters who were stumped feel very shameless.

But because of the relationship between Ling Yi and the four divine beasts, it's not easy for them to say such things directly.

"Miss Lin Lan, this operation is extremely dangerous, and our chances of winning are not great. You are still young, so don't take this risk."

The oldest elder of the Ling family stroked his gray beard with a tactful tone.Others also joined in.

Ling Yi looked at Ling Lan with some worry, it's a good thing for her daughter to be motivated, but isn't this a bit aggressive?

"Girl, it's a good thing that you have this kind of intention. But without diamonds, if you don't do porcelain work, your strength is not enough. When it comes to the battlefield, instead of being of help, you will cause trouble for everyone."

In comparison, Ling Yi and Ling Wei were really worried about her safety.

Jin Que suppressed a smile at the side - when these people saw Ling Lan's strength later, they would probably drop their jaws in shock.

Ignoring Jin Que who was watching the excitement, Ling Lan said calmly, "We don't judge heroes by age. Whether I have this strength, you have to see it with your own eyes to know."
