After his trip to Jiangbei, Li Er returned to Yunzhou of Jiangdong with Ye Fan's son and kept the child in his own manor. But when he saw how the situation in China was escalating, he knew for certain that the Li residence was no longer a safe haven.

Back in the manor, Li Er was sitting on a long bench watching the child catch some butterflies when Jin Bao and Yin Bao hurried in with the latest updates on the situation.

“Mr. Li,” Jin Bao informed, “armies of the Chu Sect have just arrived at the coast of Eastsea. It seems that they will launch an attack against War God Castle on Mount Yan anytime soon. The whole martial arts world is facing an imminent threat.”

“Mr. Li, I believe it's time we activate Jiangdong's defense plan,” Yin Bao added.

Li Er furrowed his brows. “So, things are that bad. Is war really coming to Mount Yan?”

The man could not help but feel sorrowful when he learned that the Chu Sect's army was enclosing Mount Yan and that a bitter battle would soon erupt in China's martial arts world.

Would the Chu Sect be this ruthless if Mr. Chu were still around? Our country's martial arts world would not end up in such a wretched state if he were still alive.

“How I wish there is deliverance in such trying times.” Li Er sighed.

Although Li Er and the others in Jiangdong despised people like Sword Saint from the War God Castle, Li Er was still grieved by their fate.

After all, the War God Castle was the representation of China's martial arts for the past hundred years. It was once the pinnacle of the martial arts world, yet it was reduced to such a pathetic state.

As a citizen of the country himself, there was no way Li Er was unmoved when he saw that the nation was on the brink of a collapse.

“Mr. Li, we can't afford to waste more time. The enemies are really aggressive, and their three leaders at the frontline are already right outside the coast of China. What if they decide to divide and conquer Mount Yan and Jiangdong concurrently? We will be caught unawares. It will be too late for us to do anything by then,” Jin Bao and Yin Bao urged.

Seeing how dire their situation was, the two hurried Li Er to kickstart their defense strategy. However, the latter still took some more time to think things through.

He stood up slowly and looked over at Mount Yan.

“All right. Convey my orders. Jiangdong's defense strategy is officially in force.”

“Right away!” the two answered.
