"We've already done everything according to what you told us. All the various sects have sent many people out to get ready." Liu Chuandao looked rather worried. "Once a war breaks out, we're going to keep it within the mountain gate?"
"That's exactly the purpose and reason for existence for everybody just inside the mountain gate, and us outside the mountain gate in Mount Zhongnan. I'm sure you are aware of this,” said Fang Qiu. "Mount Zhongnan is a final layer of defense, and the mountain gate itself was meant to keep those people in. I'm sure your family records have notes on these matters."
Liu Chuandao didn't say anything.
That was the truth.
It was the truth that many sects didn't want to acknowledge. This was something that every sect leader of every generation knew about, and some even hid these things away. But the truth was the truth, and nobody could change that.
Once the inside of the mountain gate was to turn into a battlefield, it meant that they had to think about leaving this place.
"The eight reclusive clans of Mount Zhongnan were sent out from within the mountain gate. You guys are our next line of defense." Fang Qiu took a deep breath. "This is your mission.”
"I understand." Liu Chuandao nodded.
It was indeed his mission.
"Tell Jiang Ning that we're good on this side and that we will definitely get everything ready."
"That's good enough," said Fang Qiu. "If you need anything, send someone to look for me anytime. This is the first time we're combining forces, and it will be the last time. I hope everything turns out well for all of us."
After saying that, Fang Qiu left.
Liu Chuandao stood there for a long time before finally exhaling very gently.
This day had finally come.
"Father, when is Jiang Ning coming back?” Liu Qing's voice came from behind him.
She knew that Jiang Ning's wife had given birth and her eyes were filled with blessings for the family, but her heart felt a little disappointed and upset.
Liu Chuandao turned to look at Liu Qing.
"He'll be back."
"I know. I want to visit him," said Liu Qing all of a sudden. "I want to see his wife and child."
She was really curious. She wondered what sort of woman could make Jiang Ning so devoted to her, and really wanted to get to know Lin Yuzhen. She wasn't going there to challenge her position or to disrupt their life. It was mere curiosity.
