My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!
Chapter 650 - 393: Li Nuo's Connections_2

The group benefited greatly. If he had participated in the previous two Martial Arts Tournaments held by the court, they would not have come to the Sanqing Sect this year.

After being improved by Li Nuo, the power of the Hua Mountain Swordsmanship had risen a notch. The Hua Mountain Sect Leader clasped his fist towards Li Nuo and said, "Thank you, Little Friend Li. If there is anything you need in the future, just ask. Although the Hua Mountain Sect is not as powerful as the Sanqing Sect, we are willing to offer our modest help..."

He had actually said something like this to Li Nuo last time.

But, backing on the court with such a strong sect behind him, what could he need them for?

Therefore, this favor had always been owed, and now it was owed even more.

Li Nuo was actually waiting for this statement. Upon hearing it, he smiled and said, "Since the Sect Leader has said so, I will not be reserved. As a matter of fact, there is something I would like to ask for your help with."

The Hua Mountain Sect Leader laughed heartily and said, "No need to be polite, Little Friend. Speak freely."

People of the Jianghu value repaying kindness. Li Nuo not asking them for help and owing this favor left him feeling uneasy.

Li Nuo said, "The situation is this: Some Daxia citizens have been tricked and taken to Yue Country. I intend to rescue them, but this matter is not suitable for the court to intervene, so I'd like to ask for your help..."

Li Nuo's request for their help was not something against ethics, but a matter of justice. Naturally, there was no hesitation for the Hua Mountain Sect Leader, who agreed without even thinking.

At this time, Xu Jing from the Heavenly Mountain Sect couldn't hold back any longer.

After all, he was the first to know Li Nuo and, by relation, they should be closer. The Heavenly Mountain Sect also owed him a favor. Now that he was in trouble, how could they stand by and watch?

He immediately patted his chest and said, "Little Friend Li, we from the Heavenly Mountain Sect will help with this."

Li Nuo clasped his fist and said, "Thank you, Senior Xu. The place in Yue Country holding them has not only a Grandmaster stationed but is also heavily guarded. One Hua Mountain Sect may not be enough, but with your help, I can rest assured..."

After Xu Jing from the Heavenly Mountain Sect spoke, the Grandmasters from other sects couldn't remain silent.

Everyone had shared the benefits, and pretending not to hear at this moment would seem unprincipled.

"How could we, the Heng Mountain Sect, not be involved in such matters?"

"There is strength in numbers, my Sky Eagle Sect will also contribute."

"The barbarians of Yue Country dare to capture our Daxia people, we must show them something, count my Silver Spear Sect in!"

...

With the close ties of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, naturally, Mount Heng, Song Mountain, and Tai Mountain wouldn't just watch after Hua Mountain and Heng Mountain stood up.

Once several other sects' Grandmasters spoke up, the following voices continued one after another.

Initially, the sects with only one Grandmaster had some reservations.

After all, venturing into Yue Country for rescue posed great risks to a Grandmaster, and being surrounded by a chaotic army would mean certain death.

But if everyone went together, it would indeed boost their confidence.

There were over fifty Grandmasters here. Banding together, they could annihilate any small country outside the Five Great Dynasties. Even against a Semi-Saint, they had nothing to fear.

Even these Grandmasters, with no real connections to Li Nuo, had spoken up, making it difficult for the Grandmasters from the Sanqing Sect to remain silent.

Li Nuo, being Master Uncle Su's disciple, was inherently part of the Sanqing Sect. If he faced difficulties, there was no reason for outsiders to help while they merely watched, which would make the sect a laughingstock.

...

Yuhua Peak.

The middle-aged woman looked at Li Nuo and asked, "Do I need to take action?"

Li Nuo hastily responded, "No, no, there's no need to trouble you, Master. With help from two senior sisters and those seniors, there won't be any issues."

Yue Country already had a Sixth Realm Yin Yang School member, so there was really no need for the master to intervene.

Of course, the more important reason was that without involving Semi-Saints, Senior Dongfang could still obscure the heavenly secrets.

It's known that the Ximen family also had a Yin Yang School Semi-Saint. Once a Sixth Realm Martial Path Half-Saint got involved, the Ximen family's Semi-Saint might not dare to appear.

This time, it coincidentally aligned with the sect holding the Martial Arts Tournament, so Li Nuo managed to rally fifty-six Grandmasters with little effort.

As strong as the Five Great Dynasties' armies might be, they could only muster a few dozen Fifth Realm practitioners.

Moreover, they would never be this concentrated, being scattered among different military formations.

The Yue Country's Central Army, combined with the Black Tiger Army supported by Chu Country, only had a total of five Grandmasters.

With fifty-six against five, the advantage was his.

However, who knows if Wei Country had placed any other Sixth Realm experts in Yue Country? Since Li Nuo was asking others for help, any mishap would leave him unable to explain to the others' sects.

To be safe, Li Nuo planned to make a trip to Zhao Country.

Last time when he left Zhao Country, the Empress was about to hold a Martial Arts Tournament to help Jiaren advance.

Given the court's efficiency along with the preparation time, it might not have ended yet.

If he could gather more people, he could be completely assured.

An additional important reason was that he missed them and the child...

...

Zhao Country.

There were still two days before the end of the Martial Arts Tournament, and the Grandmasters from various Zhao Country sects were ready to return.

During this Martial Arts Tournament, they gained some insights by sparring with the Grandmasters of Daxia's Sanqing Sect. Many intended to go back and fully digest these insights, and the only regret was not meeting King Zhao. King Zhao's Martial Path attainment was extremely high, enough that even Grandmasters wished to seek his guidance.

There were also a few Grandmaster couples, unable to conceive due to Cultivation Technique issues, who had been able to have children thanks to King Zhao's improved Cultivation Technique. They came to the capital to thank King Zhao but had not seen him.
