At the same time.
The airport in Linhai City was bustling with activity.
Planes were constantly landing and taking off.
A large number of strong men, along with various ferocious beasts, appeared one after another.
The entire airport was busy for more than half a day, until sunrise.
The Beast King Army finally assembled, and Zhang Yang and the Zhenxi Beast King also arrived.
"Greetings, Beast King!"
The members of the Beast King Army were relieved to see the Beast King arrive safely.
They were very grateful to the Beast King and also looked at Zhang Yang with gratitude.
Although many of their companions were killed by Zhang Yang in Jiangnan City,
They also learned that the Emperor was the instigator, and Zhang Yang had joined forces with the Beast King to fend off the enemy this time.
By single-handedly bearing this danger for them, he had earned their respect.
"Is everyone alright?" the Zhenxi Beast King asked.
"Rest assured, Beast King, we are fine."
"Thank you for everything you have done for us, Beast King."
The members of the Beast King Army bowed to Zhang Yang and the Beast King.
"Get up, everyone. We are all brothers. I have always regarded you as family, so there is no need for this," the Zhenxi Beast King waved his hand, telling them to rise.
At this moment.
Zhu Zhi and Huo Zhu, descendants of the Ming King, and the Five Dragons of Huaxia also arrived.
The two leaders were all smiles.
Zhang Yang had truly given them a great surprise this time.
He had actually managed to win over the Zhenxi Beast King to Linhai City.
And there was also a large contingent of the Beast King Army with considerable combat strength.
This greatly increased the strength of their Linhai City side!
This was much stronger than the overall strength of small countries abroad.
"Haha, Zhang Yang, I knew you would surprise us!" Huo Zhu laughed.
"Welcome to Linhai City, Beast King Army. I am Zhu Zhi, the Grand Elder of the Ming King's descendants. I have already designated a piece of land for you, and from today onwards, it will belong to the Beast King Army," Zhu Zhi also said with a smile.
Upon hearing this.
The Zhenxi Beast King expressed his gratitude, "Elder Zhu is very thoughtful. Thank you for Linhai City's hospitality."
"Not at all. We are all allies, so there's no need for hospitality. I am very happy that you are willing to come to Linhai City," Zhu Zhi waved his hands repeatedly.
"Haha, let's not be so formal, everyone," Zhang Yang also smiled, and then continued.
"Let's go back first. It's not good to have so many people standing at the airport."
Zhu Zhi nodded.
Then he led the way, taking everyone to the area designated for the Zhenxi Beast King.
This was the stadium in Linhai City.
It was two kilometers in length.
Zhu Zhi had already arranged for rest areas, training areas, and office areas, which were sufficient to accommodate the daily needs of the Beast King Army.
"Beast King, you will live here from now on. As for the trivial matters of daily life, I will send people to liaise with you tomorrow. If you have any other difficulties, please do not hesitate to ask, and I will do my best to satisfy you," Zhu Zhi said.
The Zhenxi Beast King shook his head, "Thank you, Elder Zhu. Your arrangements are already very good, and we are very satisfied."
This time.
The Zhenxi Beast King and his entourage came to Linhai City not just to bring their people.
Their development in the Western Regions had been good over the years, and they had accumulated considerable wealth in gold and jewels.
Therefore, they had no difficulties in terms of living conditions.
Subsequently.
The Zhenxi Beast King turned to He Guan.
He instructed him to arrange for the Beast King Army to settle in with the leaders of each squadron.
He himself, along with Zhang Yang and Huo Zhu, left first.
Five minutes later.
Huo Zhu, Zhu Zhi, the Zhenxi Beast King, and Zhang Yang arrived in an office.
The four of them sat together.
The Zhenxi Beast King recounted the events that had transpired in the Western Regions that day to Zhu Zhi and Huo Zhu.
Upon hearing this, the two were very surprised.
"You have this thing, kid? Where did you get that giant crocodile?" Zhu Zhi was very surprised.
He had seen Zhang Yang's giant python in the Extreme Western Region before.
And now another giant crocodile had appeared?
Did Zhang Yang also have the ability to control beasts?
"Hehe, the giant crocodile and the giant python were both encountered in the ancestral house of the Zhang family. I don't know how these two fierce beasts managed to find me," Zhang Yang explained with a smile, touching his nose.
"However, I am also very grateful for their appearance, as they indirectly helped me a lot."
"Elder Huo also knows about these two fierce beasts. You can ask him if you don't believe me."
Huo Zhu nodded upon hearing this.
He recalled entering the Zhang family's ancestral house back then.
There was indeed an alligator and a python by Zhang Yang's side.
"These two fierce beasts are from the Zhang family's ancestral house, and they helped me a lot back then," Huo Zhu explained.
With Huo Zhu's explanation, Zhu Zhi and the Zhenxi Beast King did not press further.
This saved Zhang Yang from having to explain anything else.
Otherwise, he would have to explain about the giant python again, which would be a long and tedious process.
"Everyone should be aware that the Emperor's identity is fake, right? Now, let's all share our thoughts," Zhang Yang seized the opportune moment to change the subject.
Hearing this, Zhu Zhi shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"What thoughts can we have? Should we fight back now? I'm afraid it's not appropriate."
"Of course, it's not appropriate. If we directly attack the imperial city, it will cause the entire country to suffer," the Zhenxi Beast King also opposed.
"There are still many major and minor forces within the territory of Huaxia. I think we can start by approaching these forces and persuading them to join us," Huo Zhu suggested.
Zhu Zhi and the Zhenxi Beast King understood Huo Zhu's intention.
However, implementing it would be extremely difficult.
Although these major and minor forces were not directly under the Emperor's jurisdiction,
Once Zhang Yang and his group launched a counter-attack, it would be tantamount to rebellion. If the Emperor gave the order, these forces would undoubtedly obey the Emperor and raise their swords against them.
At that time.
These forces alone would be enough to wear Zhang Yang and his group down.
By the time they reached the imperial city, their overall strength would likely have been depleted by more than eighty or ninety percent.
How could they then contend with the Emperor?
"Then why don't we go straight to the point? Directly confront the Emperor?" the Zhenxi Beast King proposed.
Zhu Zhi was the first to shake his head after hearing this.
"This is also not appropriate. How do we confront him? You are with me now. If we go to confront the Emperor together, even if we tell others that the Emperor is fake, who would believe us?"
"Not only will they not believe us, but they will also think that you are merely helping the Ming King to seize the throne, and you will still be branded as rebels."
This...
The Zhenxi Beast King was immediately speechless.
Neither this nor that would work.
"Then what should we do? Are we really going to be confined to Linhai City for the rest of our lives?" the Zhenxi Beast King said with distress.
Zhu Zhi and Huo Zhu looked at Zhang Yang with smiles.
"We have all spoken. Now it's your turn to express your opinion. Tell us, what do you think is appropriate?"
Zhang Yang shrugged. In truth, he had no solution.
"As you all just said, the current situation is unfavorable to us, unless we can find a way to let the world know that the Emperor's identity is indeed fake."
"Otherwise, whether it's secretly lobbying the major forces of Huaxia or directly attacking the imperial city, neither is appropriate."
After Zhang Yang finished speaking.
The expressions of the other three also became serious.
Even Zhang Yang had no solution?
Then there was truly no hope, and they could only wait and see.
Suddenly.
Zhu Zhi's phone rang, and he looked at the number with surprise.
At such a critical time, the other party dared to contact him?
Could something major have happened?
