Chen Lang soon met Mu Ningxue in the villa. Under some guidance from Qin Yuer, her cultivation level did change slightly again.

But in fact, it is not very big, because what I gave her before was already considered the best route and resource supply.

Mu Ningxue didn't have much feelings about his own cultivation, but the moment he saw Chen Lang, he felt relieved.

Because she knew that Chen Lang went to Northern Border, and she also learned that there was a Undead Empire there!!!

Fortunately... he came back safely.

Mu Ningxue calmed down his emotions and then said, "The sea water suddenly rose, and many cities on the coastline can no longer survive. It seems that the above are planning to build base cities. We Fei Niao City are one of them."

"Well, sooner or later, when I came back, I noticed a large number of Sea Monster gathered in the sea not far away."

Chen Lang continued, "I have solved them all easily, but the plan to establish the base city is not easy to realize."

Mu Ningxue reacted and muttered, "No wonder there was such a big movement just now..."

Chen Lang asked again, "Has the situation in other coastal cities stabilized now?"

"With Grand Speaker's advance preparation, our country is the least damaged."

"According to the latest information, those coastal cities that need to be evacuated have already been evacuated, and those that do not need to be evacuated have also built urban seawalls."

Compared to Great Xia, other countries close to Pacific Ocean have really suffered.

Being unprepared, almost everyone was caught off guard.

Even Sakura, who is good at naval battles, suffered huge damage.

Chen Lang After understanding this, he didn't do anything else. His power alone was limited. Now that he was temporarily stable, there was no need to continue running.

He also gained a lot from this trip to the Tianshan Mountains.

Except for the training resources he needed, Chen Lang gave all the rest to Mu Ningxue.

"I have nothing to do right now, so I will go and digest what I have learned this time."

Mu Ningxue seemed to have thought of something, and said, "This time the sea water has risen, there are actually many aristocratic families who have been affected."

"Magic City's four big families, Dongfang Family and Mu Family are probably in the worst situation this time." Mu Ningxue lowered his eyes and looked at his fingertips, with a hint of emotion in his tone. Looking a little solemn, he said, "The seawater poured back in the past few days, and the three spiritual material veins and two shipping ports along their coast were almost all gone in one day. These are the resource base of most of the family, and now they can hardly even provide the cultivation materials for the clan members."

Chen Lang's hand holding the tea cup paused, and there was no wave in his eyes.

He had already guessed the dilemma of the two families when he came back from Northern Border. He even knew that Dongfang Family had secretly mobilized most of the monks in the clan to try to recapture the mineral veins near the shallow sea. As a result, he was forced back by a group of Sea Monster as soon as he arrived at the beach.

"Want to help them?" Chen Lang raised his eyes and looked at her, his tone as calm as if he was talking about something insignificant, "Given their current situation, even if you really want to reach out, you have to think about it first. These two families are very proud, so they may not accept this offer."

What's more, Chen Lang knew in his heart that he was being merciful by not intercepting the opportunity that the two families were about to explore while they were busy taking care of themselves.

Mu Ningxue shook his head, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes shone with determination. "I don't want to help them, I just want to win them over to form an alliance, in the name of the Chen branch."

These words made Chen Lang raise her eyebrows and motioned for her to continue.

"If we use the name Chen Clan to win over, even when they were at their peak, it would be impossible. Not to mention that these two families are desperate now..." Mu Ningxue analyzed clearly, " Although Dongfang Family and Mu Family are old aristocratic families, they are not even inferior to the 'Aristocratic Family'. If we really want them to form an alliance with the Chen Clan, their first reaction will be that they are afraid of being swallowed up by us and becoming vassals from now on."

She paused, remembering the information she had inquired about before, and added, "Besides, these two families had a smooth life in the past. Relying on the reputation of the four Magic City family, others have always supported them. Even if they are in trouble now, their arrogance has not dissipated in their bones, and they are asked to bow down and rely on them? They would rather hold on and use up all their wealth than agree to it."

"Now there is a chance to conquer them, but the success rate is not very high." Chen Lang took over the words with a bit of understanding in his tone, "They are still lucky in their hearts, thinking that as long as they survive this period of time, they can always recover on their own. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If they are really pressed, they may join forces with other aristocratic families to resist."

"That's it." Mu Ningxue nodded, his eyes brightening, "But it would be different if it were our Chen branch. When you asked me to take care of this branch, didn't you just want me to try to establish myself? But our branch is just established, with no connections and no foundation. It is too difficult to become bigger and stronger."

Chen Clan is not involved in anything about the branch. Many people know this.

She took half a step forward, her tone a bit eager but still calm. "But it will be different if we can form an alliance with the Dongfang Family and Mu Family. Dongfang Family There are still many forging mages. Mu Family Not to mention, there are many shipping channels. What we lack is exactly what they have. And the resources and protection they lack now are the only bridge."

"As long as there is this opportunity to get in touch, it will definitely be of great help to the current branch development."

After Mu Ningxue finished speaking, he looked at Chen Lang nervously, waiting for his reaction.

She knew that this idea was not a small one, and whether it could succeed or not depended on Chen Lang's attitude.

Chen Lang rubbed the rim of the cup with his fingertips, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

He originally thought that Mu Ningxue just wanted to try something, but he didn't expect that she thought about the pros and cons so thoroughly.

Not only did he understand the thoughts of the Dongfang Family and Mu Family, he also saw clearly the shortcomings of the branches, and even the mutual benefits after the alliance were clearly calculated.

"It's interesting. I can provide you with the bridge you want." Chen Lang said.

The mineral vein Mu Clan found was not easy for them to enter. But Mo Fan happened to have Flame Fairy, which was the best introduction.

After that, let Zhao Manyan follow up and talk about it, and the rest of the cooperation will naturally not be difficult.

At the moment, whether Mu Clan or Dongfang Family, there is indeed a sense of deja vu. If they do not want to become dependent on other families and want to continue to maintain the four Magic City families, then they will not refuse.

Chen Lang doesn't let Chen get involved in the matter of the branch. Just forming an alliance with the branch does not count as being attached to the Chen Clan.

"What bridge?" Mu Ningxue was also a little curious and looked at Chen Lang, full of questions.
