"Elders, my disciples will temporarily receive the position of elder punishment. As for the head sect, if you wait until you defeat the Sumen, you will choose one of the outstanding disciples from the sect. What do you think?" After some conversation, Chen Rui spoke slowly.

Jiupu and others looked at each other and immediately bowed and said, "I have seen the elders of punishment, so I will follow the elders' orders."

Chen Rui sighed, it would be better if he could unify his command of this big move against Sumen...

This gathering was finally spent in a relaxed atmosphere, and everyone felt extremely relaxed. Chen Rui also obtained more detailed information from the Holy Sword Sect. Now, in the expansion of the Sumen, there are still nine "Nail Sects". The so-called "Nail Sect" refers to those sects that are similar to the Holy Sword Sect, which neither surrenders to the Sumen nor pulls out the spiritual veins where the sect is located, and are determined to fight with the Sumen. Now, six of the nine sects rely on the protection formation and the Sumen to deal with each other, and three are fighting with the Sumen.

During the expansion process, Sumen had to occupy the spiritual veins and divide their troops to attack the "Nail Sects". It did cost a huge price to mobilize countless monks and students. Of course, facing the powerful "Nail Sect", their strength will be relatively strong in sending a large army of monks. However, no matter how they distribute combat power, the overall strength of the army of monks sent by Sumen must be above those of the "Nail Sects".

In response to this, Chen Rui made arrangements based on the information. He divided the deacons of the Cultivation Alliance into nine waves, secretly sneaked out of the Tianji Mountains, and asked them to join the "Nail Sect" one by one as guest officials to fight against Sumen.

With the addition of these deacons, the strength of those "Nail Sect" instantly increased. After all, these deacons are among the best masters in the Cultivation Alliance except for elders. With their help, although they cannot guarantee that they can defeat the attacking Sumen monks, there should be no problem in protecting themselves.

Among dozens of deacons in the Cultivation Alliance, Chen Rui left only Zhao Wuji and a early stage monk named Hu Qingniu. Because he had already made plans, it was difficult to expose himself, Mu Chen and others at this moment, otherwise it would be aroused by Su Men's vigilance, and the next plan would be difficult to carry out.

According to the usual allocation of combat power of Sumen to attack the "Nail Sect", the Sumen army that attacked the Holy Sword Sect should not be too strong at that time. After all, at this moment, the Holy Sword Sect only had one elder in the early stage of Guiyuan, and the other elders had the strongest cultivation to have only the perfect elixir, and there were only a few who had perfect elixirs. Most elders were only in the early stage of Guiyuan and the midst of the elixirs. In addition, the Jiupu Elder moved here, and the protection formation of his sect was not as good as the previous Holy Sword Sect. Chen Rui inferred that Sumen could not dispatch the mid-stage of Guiyuan cultivators.

In this way, with Zhao Wuji and Hu Qingniu helping him, and with the original combat power of the Holy Sword Sect, he should have the power to fight. If you have any accidents, don’t you still have yourself, are the three masters of Mu Chen and Xiaobai?

In the quiet room, Chen Rui sat cross-legged, his eyes closed slightly, and quietly waited for the arrival of the Sumen army. Suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, he immediately stood up, walked out of the quiet room, and saw the gentle and gentle Xia Wan'er at a glance.

"Miss Xia, is there anything wrong with me?" Chen Rui said with a smile.

Xia Wan'er stared at Chen Rui, pursed her lips, and said, "Young Master, Wan'er also wants to participate in the battle the day after tomorrow."

Chen Rui was stunned. He didn't expect Xia Wan'er to say this. He knew Xia Wan'er's temperament well. This woman was gentle and kind, and had never seen her take the initiative to fight. Chen Rui was also very clear that with her personality, she was not suitable for practicing. Instead, she was suitable for being a mortal, a lady from a high school, and living her life safely.

Chen Rui touched his nose and smiled and said, "Miss Xia, that would be very dangerous. I think it would be safer to stay in the sect obediently."

Xia Wan'er's expression was firm, shook her head, and said, "Young Master, I know all of this. After experiencing so much, Wan'er thought a lot. Wan'er could not be so lucky every time and could get the protection of the young master. In order to go further on this road of cultivation, Wan'er did not want to be the drag of the young master, so she decided to be stronger. Wan'er wanted to become a female cultivator like the meteor sister. Only in this way can she be with the young master with peace of mind."

"Uh!" Chen Rui was embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Since he followed him automatically, Xia Wan'er never had any doubts about his arrangements. This time he decisively refused his arrangements. This is what...

Before Chen Rui could speak, Xia Wan'er smiled and said, "Young Master, don't underestimate Wan'er too much. Now my cultivation level is in the middle stage of Killing Dan. Not only does my body have powerful magic weapons given by the young master, but also the sword skills taught by the Meteor Sister. Wan'er believes that even if he meets a cultivator in the late stage of Killing Dan, he will have the power of a battle."

Chen Rui focused his mind and showed a strange expression. He thought to himself: "No, how could this girl's cultivation progress so quickly? She just broke through to the early stage of the Dan Cultivation Realm, and now it's the middle stage of the Dan Cultivation?"

Looking at Xia Wan'er's firm expression, Chen Rui sighed and said, "Okay, but Miss Xia, you have too little experience in fighting. You need to be very careful at that time. Because you also know that Brother Mu and I don't plan to take action this time."

Xia Wan'er gritted her teeth and nodded slightly, but a warm current emerged in her heart. She knew that Chen Rui was also worried about her. However, in order not to let him worry more, this time she joined the war, she would definitely persevere and live well, otherwise how could she be worthy of the deep friendship of the person in front of her?

"Before this, I will give you something to defend yourself." Chen Rui took a deep breath, made seals with both hands, and a lotus that emitted dazzling light slowly appeared in his hand and slowly turned.

"This is the protection of the Sixty-Three Forbidden Lotus, please keep it." After saying that, he waved his palm and the lotus turned into a ray of light and flew into Xia Wan'er's eyebrows and disappeared.

"This lotus will emerge when you have a life-and-death crisis and set up a powerful guardian ban to ensure you are fully prepared."

"Thank you..." Seeing Chen Rui's arrangement so thoughtful, Xia Wan'er knew more about his concern. A touching blush appeared on his soft face and said softly.

Chen Rui grabbed his head and chuckled, "You don't have to take it seriously if you have a small task."

"Well, I left that night. Wan'er wants to learn more about the sword skills taught by the Meteor Sister in the past two days." Xia Wan'er smiled slightly, then gently moved her lotus steps and left the room where Chen Rui was.

Looking at Xia Wan'er's back as she was leaving, Chen Rui couldn't help but touch his nose and smiled bitterly.

"Boy, this little girl is not as simple as you think." Suddenly, Yi Yunzi's voice sounded in his mind.

Chen Rui felt aroused in his heart and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's useless to tell you now. In short, you have to protect her. You won't suffer any losses in the future." After saying this, Yi Yunzi fell into silence. No matter how Chen Rui called, he stopped talking.

"What a mystery, it's true." Chen Rui cursed secretly and continued to return to the quiet room to meditate and breathe.

Two days passed by during the practice... While Chen Rui and others were waiting for the arrival of the Sumen people, countless white shadows were slowly surrounding from all directions in the sky in the distant mountains of the Sky.
