Ning Family Island has a convenient geographical location, making it easy to conduct business and trade, but it lacks natural barriers and strategic depth.
Chu Yun decisively defeated the Ning Family Head fleet, persuaded Ning Family Head Wang Zelong to surrender, and after a short rest, headed to the Ning Family Head island.
"They're here! The Shu Family Army is here!"
"Little Tyrant is coming! What should we do, Fan?"
The Ning Family Head island was in complete chaos. Chu Yun's army, with dozens of warships, stretched out in a dark mass, pressing in.
" The Ning Family..." Chu Yun stood at the bow of the Eagle Soaring ship, gazing into the distance, murmuring to himself.
What unfolded before him was a bustling island. It had countless docks of all sizes, with various merchant ships moored there. Chu Yun's army had arrived too quickly and hadn't even had time to escape.
Marble-paved streets and ornate pavilions abound. The air is thick with an air of decadent extravagance, and a subtle, glittering fragrance seems to permeate the densely packed streets and alleys. One can imagine that on ordinary days, this place is teeming with pedestrians, the docks bustling with activity, various goods being loaded and unloaded, and merchant ships coming and going. People chatter and laugh, merchants from all corners of the country engaged in trade.
But now, they were all huddled in the room, some trembling, some peeking out with fear and trepidation, looking at Chu Yun's imposing military bearing.
"Ningjia Island is indeed one of the commercial centers of the All-Star Archipelago, and it is truly prosperous." Chu Yun exclaimed in admiration, having never set foot on Ning Family Island before.
In his past life, Shu Family Island was plotted against by the Ning Family, and Ning Tianwang rose to power, leaving him a lonely wandering knight. During that time, he struggled to make ends meet and once returned to the All-Star Archipelago with a sea voyage. Standing on the deck, he could see the golden splendor of Ning Family Island in the distance and hear the people around him speaking with admiration about the Ning Family's wealth and Ning Tianwang's prowess.
But now, Ning Tianwang has been killed by him, and Tie Ao has been defeated by him. He stands at the bow of the ship, looking straight ahead, but in his heart he is already looking down on Ning Family Island!
He is no longer the " Fire Fox Young Master," he is Moroboshi's Little Tyrant!
His name alone is enough to send shivers down people's spines.
"..." Chu Yun gritted his teeth, his chest surging with turmoil, and he had an urge to shout and roar.
But finally, he gently exhaled a breath of stale air.
Years of pent-up frustration and humiliation were exhaled in this moment as a soft sigh.
It was as if you were expelling all the dark, stagnant residue from your body in one breath.
Suddenly, he had a strange feeling, as if his body had become lighter.
Ah, that feels great!
"Is that Chu Yun...?" Standing on the high building, the Ning Family Island stared intently. Chu Yun's temperament was so outstanding that he spotted Chu Yun at a glance.
This was the first time he had seen Chu Yun in True Person. Before that, he had of course seen Chu Yun's portrait, and not only did he know what he looked like, but he was also very familiar with him, and had the image deeply imprinted in his mind.
But this time, when he actually saw Chu Yun in person, the Ning Family Island was deeply shaken.
"This young man," the Ning Family Island, who knew countless people, immediately sensed a spiritual aura emanating from Chu Yun upon seeing him. It was like an eagle soaring in the sky or a dragon swimming in the sea, giving him an irresistible feeling.
He had seen this feeling in Tie Ao as well. But it was slightly different. Tie Ao had a kind of aloof arrogance, while Chu Yun was as steady as a mountain and had a firm mind.
A discerning person could see in Tie Ao's eyes an elegance of ancient nobility, and a subtle disdain for the outside world.
What I saw in Chu Yun's eyes was a clear and objective understanding, a pragmatic and steady attitude, and a firm commitment to his goal.
It was this unwavering resolve that moved the Ning Family Island deeply.
"This young man is truly formidable! This kind of determination isn't just pure passion and impulsiveness. It comes from a deep understanding of the world, a profound grasp of life, knowing what he wants to do and what he desires, and the unwavering commitment to achieving it."
He couldn't help but be shocked.
Knowing what you want to do, knowing what you want, and knowing why you live.
This kind of person, no matter what they do or what their qualifications are, has already lived their true self and found themselves.
This is the state of being free from confusion.
Star Saint once said, "At fifteen, I set my heart on learning; at thirty, I stood firm; at forty, I had no more doubts; at fifty, I knew the will of Heaven; at sixty, my ear was attuned to the truth; at seventy, I could follow my heart's desire without transgressing the rules."
The only saint in the Star Continent, the Star Saint, once said, "At the age of 15, I resolved to study."
By the time he turned thirty, he had achieved some success.
At forty, one reaches a state of clarity, understanding the meaning of life and one's true purpose, and remains steadfast in this belief.
By the time one reaches fifty, one understands the principles of heaven and earth.
By the time one reaches the age of sixty, one's mind is attuned to the truth, one can hear all things speak, and one can understand profound meanings in subtle words.
At the age of seventy, every action he took was in accordance with his own heart and desires, without any pretense. However, no matter what he did, he did not violate the laws of heaven and earth or the natural order. He became a saint at the age of seventy, a state in which every action was in harmony with the great Dao of heaven and earth.
"No wonder he refused our clan's marriage proposal and showed no fear of any powerful enemy. He has reached the age of no confusion, found his purpose and meaning in life, and no beauty can seduce him, no powerful enemy can intimidate him. He is fearless. Even the Star Saint only reached the state of no confusion at the age of forty. How old is he? Only 14!"
The Ning Family's bird lord was shocked, envious, and relieved all at once. "So that's how it is. No wonder my Ning Family failed. I was defeated by this young man!"
He sighed deeply in his heart. Had he known Chu Yun was this kind of person, his plans for Shu Family Island would definitely have changed. But now it was too late to say any of that.
However, he immediately took a deep breath and composed himself. Chu Yun was terrifyingly outstanding, but he was also the island lord of the Ning Family and would not give up resistance just because the enemy was formidable.
"It's up to you two now." The Ning Family Island turned his head and looked at the two people beside him.
These two men were the first and second most important guests of the Ning Family. Their status was even higher than that of Gu Poyou. One was known as " Hero's Gall " and the other as " Heavenly Steed Traverses," both of whom Vine List.
"Rest assured, Island Lord, with our arrangements Ning Family Island is impregnable. There's no need to worry too much. Chu Yun won't be able to break through." Hero's Gall had a bold and rugged appearance, and his tone was very confident.
Meanwhile, on the Eagle Soaring.
"Young Island Master, Ning Family Island has a special protective formation of Demon Beast. It was designed and set up by the Ning Family's first guest, Hero's Gall, and second guest, Heavenly Steed Traverses. It is not as easy as you might imagine to take it down," said the surrendered general Wang Zelong.
" Demon Beast island-protecting formation? I know that too. It involves selecting multiple Demon Beast, having them comprehend the same defensive Dao technique, and then using specially crafted Demon Weapon to fuse the effects of that technique together." Chu Yun's eyes were clear as water, his expression strategic. " Wang Zelong, let me see your performance. Go down and lead 1,000 men to attack. If things go wrong, retreat is permitted."
"Your subordinate obeys!" Wang Zelong replied, bowing and retreating.
"Kill them all!" After he went down, he immediately led a force mainly composed of surrendered soldiers, and even brought his elite Hai Fang troops to attack Ning Family Island in order to show his loyalty.
"They've attacked! The enemy is advancing!"
"Run! Run!"
Ning Family Island was immediately thrown into chaos.
"Hmph! Mercenaries really are unreliable. Wang Zelong, I'll make sure you never return!" The Ning Family Island sneered, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, before ordering, "Activate the grand formation."
Rumble...
With a loud clang of machinery, the tall buildings and pavilions in the center of Ning Family Island slowly slid to the side, raising clouds of dust.
A massive, square-shaped Demon Weapon, resembling a small mountain and gleaming with a bluish-metallic luster, slowly rose from the dust, eliciting gasps of amazement from the crowd.
Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!
Immediately following Earth Altar, four roars of Demon Beast erupted simultaneously. Four Earth Altar slowly rose from the ground, each containing a Demon Beast imprisoned within by Demon Weapon' iron chains that pierced its bones and bound its Earth Altar.
Buzz...
Suddenly, the central square monument burst forth with a verdigris fluorescence. The fluorescence spread rapidly, forming a huge protective shield that enveloped the entire Ning Family Island in the blink of an eye.
Wang Zelong's troops were caught off guard and enveloped in the light barrier, causing them to panic. Some tried to attack the barrier, only to find that it only caused a ripple. The barrier was as thin as a cicada's wing, but as hard as steel.
Wang Zelong was locked inside, and the Ning Family's garrison immediately rushed in. The two sides made contact and a fierce battle broke out.
Chu Yun frowned and focused his attention. He saw that on the altar in the east, a Dragon Breath Turtle was locked away.
A Rainbow Smoke Sparrow is bound at the southern altar. At the northern altar is a Cloud-Wing Tiger. The western altar is obscured by a square stele and cannot be seen.
However, this did not hinder Chu Yun's thoughts. He thought to himself, "This should be a weakened version of the Four Symbols Formation. The Demon Beast used have the bloodlines of top-grade Demon Beast such as the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. However, it seems to have been changed, containing other variations."
He had seen this kind of Demon Beast formation before. Many wandering martial arts sects used this kind of formation to protect their mountain gates.
"Not to boast, Island Master Ning, but this grand formation we've set up will protect Ning Family Island for three days without a problem." The First Guest, with Hero's Gall, watched as Wang Zelong's forces were gradually swallowed up. His expression grew smug, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"If only that were the case." Island Master Ning relaxed slightly, then suddenly tensed up as he saw Chu Yun raise the Drunken Snow Blade.
boom!
The enormous blade of light, radiating chilling energy, slashed towards the protective shield, producing a loud explosion.
The four Demon Beast in the Earth Altar trembled for a moment, and the square tablet actually withstood the attack of the spirit-grade Drunken Snow Blade.
"This is a bit troublesome," Chu Yun muttered to himself.
"Good!" The Ning Family Island clenched his fist, his spirits lifted upon seeing the result. "I've already contacted nearby forces. If we can hold out for another half day, we'll receive reinforcements!"
