Chapter 565: Chapter 565 Trouble at the Holy Mansion

"Let’s talk about it when we get there," Lin Yi nodded. Securing alliances wasn’t out of the question, but it was vital to find reliable people; otherwise, there was no guarantee against deception or a stab in the back, which would be worse than not seeking alliances at all.

The military base of the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Dynasty in the Eastern Domain was established in the extreme west of the region, at the site of an abandoned ancient city. With the construction efforts of the Ministry of War’s forces, it quickly became a temporary military base.

Buzz!

Deep within the military base, space suddenly began to violently shake. A Void Warship emerged from the spatial teleportation array and descended within the military base.

The ship’s door opened, and a large group of cultivators stepped out, among them were the figures of Lin Yi and Lu Qingcheng.

After arriving at the military base, Lin Yi immediately sought out the Grand Minister to inquire about the situation in the Eastern Domain. With his current fame and power, the Grand Minister promptly granted him an audience and treated him with the courtesy due to a distinguished guest.

After some understanding, Lin Yi’s expression slightly darkened. Indeed, the worst had happened. The Undying Blood Clan had already begun their operations in the Eastern Domain!

"The situation is much more serious than we anticipated," the Grand Minister, pointing at the map of the Eastern Domain on the wall, said, "The areas marked in red on this map have already been occupied by the Undying Blood Clan."

"The yellow areas are the ones the Undying Blood Clan is preparing to attack."

"The green areas are those that have yet to be ravaged by the Undying Blood Clan."

Following the Grand Minister’s guidance, Lin Yi looked at the clear demarcated map before him. The markings were already quite clear. Where the battlefields were, where the Undying Blood Clan’s control zones lay, and where the Human Clan’s strongholds stood, all were plainly visible.

Lin Yi was from the Eastern Domain and naturally knew the map like the back of his hand. Seeing that the area of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land was still green gave his hanging heart some temporary relief.

However, after taking a quick look at other areas of the map, his face suddenly changed drastically. "Not good!" Lin Yi’s gaze sharply fell on one particular area, "Holy Mansion is in trouble!" The location of the Holy Mansion was exactly a yellow area, bordering a red one. Without a doubt, this was an exceedingly dangerous region!

The Grand Minister’s eyes showed a hint of surprise at the mention of "Holy Mansion." "I have heard that the Holy Mansion is just a common force, and the strongest among them is only at the Venerable Realm. Could it be that you, Lin Yi, have some connection with them?"

Lin Yi nodded, not concealing anything, "The Holy Mansion was my first mentorship in the Eastern Domain, indeed having quite a connection with me." "Now that the Holy Mansion is in trouble, I naturally cannot sit idly by."

"I see." The surprise on the Grand Minister’s face grew more pronounced. It seemed that he had not expected Lin Yi to have come from such an ordinary level of power and to have made his way to his current position, which was no easy feat.

"If that is the case, I shall take the initiative and deploy a troop for you, to rescue the Holy Mansion and the surrounding forces."

Hearing this, Lin Yi’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he expressed his gratitude to the Grand Minister by clasping his fist, "Then I thank you greatly, Senior Grand Minister!" He had not expected the Grand Minister to actually allocate troops to him! With this, his confidence in rescuing the Holy Mansion was even stronger! With the troops of the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Dynasty in hand, even facing the army of the Undying Blood Clan, he would not fear!

"Don’t be in a hurry to thank me," the Grand Minister waved his hand. "The Ministry of War has only just managed to establish a foothold here and does not have many troops to dispatch to you, I can only decide to give you a small combat team of five hundred."

"That will be enough." Lin Yi was not greedy; the effectiveness of troops lies not in their number but in their quality. Having too many would be beyond his command anyway, and he hadn’t expected the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Dynasty to give him any forces at all; this was a pleasant surprise.

"I will take my leave!" After bowing to the Grand Minister again, Lin Yi and Lu Qingcheng left the tent.

As the Grand Minister watched their departing figures, a glint flickered in his eyes...

Holding the Deployment Token given by the Grand Minister, Lin Yi, without any hesitation, along with Lu Qingcheng, led a five hundred-person combat team away from the military base.

This scene was witnessed by Ye Kurong, whose expression instantly darkened to the extreme, "Damn, this kid actually got a troop from the Grand Minister?"

Even if it was just a five-hundred-person troop, that was still a force to be reckoned with. Moreover, five hundred men made up a complete formation, and these soldiers of the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Dynasty, well-trained and highly synergistic, could unleash extraordinary combat power.

"Brother Ye, you are the Grandmaster’s grandson. Even if Lin Yi managed to get a troop from the Grand Minister, surely you won’t lose to him?" Hao Yanluo fanned the flames on the side.

Ye Kurong’s face alternated between cloudy and clear before he also went to see the Grand Minister, requesting a troop.

"Lin Yi is on a mission, what are you meddling for?" The Grand Minister frowned, his expression somewhat displeased.

"If Lin Yi can go on a mission, why can’t I?" Ye Kurong said firmly, "I should be more qualified than him!"

How could he, the heir to the Grandmaster Mansion, be inferior to a commoner?

"All right then." The Grand Minister didn’t waste words. "I’ll give you this opportunity. This place called the Blood Nether Sea has a large presence of the Undying Blood Clan armies. You take five hundred men there, join forces with the local Eastern Domain force, the Blood God Sect, and repel the attack of the Undying Blood Clan."

"Can you do it?"

Hearing this, Ye Kurong couldn’t help but frown. He had merely wanted a troop to save his face and incidentally deal with Lin Yi, yet the Grand Minister actually assigned him a real task. If he went to confront the Undying Blood Clan, how would he deal with Lin Yi?
