This situation was quite possible, he needed more clues to analyze.
Elves and giants didn't care about these matters; they were only concerned with when the Tianyuan Territory was planning to go to war with Fang of the Jackal Wolf. When the time came, they would also strike with all their might, encircling Fang of the Jackal Wolf on three sides.
"Together, our three forces could even have an advantage against Fang of the Jackal Wolf!"
Milena was itching for action, unable to wait, her cheeks flushed with anticipation.
But Mu Yuan frowned, "Fang of the Jackal Wolf is not the only Monster Overlord. To the south, there is Blood Snake Encase, and to the west, the Blood Tree King. It's not as if defeating the Fang of the Jackal Wolf would allow us to live in peace."
"We must take our time to plan for this, we cannot rush or be hasty."
The elves and giants frowned.
They understood this principle, but the longer they delayed, the more afraid people would become of failure. They did not want to end up one day as the very thing they detested when they were younger.
Before they could speak, however, they heard Mu Yuan say:
"At least, several months, maybe a year later."
"We must have ample time to prepare our troops, supplies, and to gather more intelligence on Fang of the Jackal Wolf. We must not rush into such a battle that touches upon our fate and survival," Lord Shepherd earnestly advised.
The elves and giants stared, mechanically nodding in agreement.
They agreed, completely agreed.
It's just, wasn't it a bit too hasty?
By 'as soon as possible', they meant within a few years. But your idea of taking time to plan, was to wait just a year or even a few months?
Buddy, should we consider, maybe, slowing down a bit, being a bit more prudent?
Lord Shepherd was a very busy man.
Lately, it seemed he had caught the 'Multiple Tasks Syndrome' from Isloa; even though he was still meeting with the elves and giants at Wolf Head Mountain, the bi-monthly trade meeting in the Secret Realm was also convened at the same time.
Good thing he was skilled in creating copies of himself.
After half a month, the activity at Elf's Courtyard, in this Secret Realm, had increased significantly, and the overall size of the Secret Realm had visibly expanded.
Lush forests could be seen in the distance, streams babbled gently, with fish swimming through.
Some puppets were hammering away, constructing new buildings and pavilions from the Miracle Blueprints.
"Lady Han Yue used a special wonder to upgrade the Secret Realm this time,"
Mu Yuan recognized the familiar voice.
She had been absent from the last trade meeting, but this time, evidently, she was still presiding. Judging by Lord Linglong's radiant appearance...
"Brother Yuan, big news! Lord Linglong has entered the Legendary Realm!"
Jiang Luoxing approached him exaggeratedly and enviously, "Lord Linglong is really soaring high now."
Great Dragon Lord, one of the prominent senior Lords, added with envy and longing, "I always feel like there's now an insurmountable barrier between us and Lord Linglong. I've also heard rumors that not only did Lord Linglong enter the Legendary Realm but also personally led troops to slay a Werewolf Legend!
"Lord Linglong already has achieved the feat of slaying a legend! Absolutely terrifying!"
Shen Linglong's keen ears twitched, and she appeared in front of Mu Yuan and the others in a flash, "I can testify to that, the message is true, not just rumors."
She looked at Mu Yuan with an expression that said: How about that, impressive, aren't I, your sister Linglong?
Breaking through to the Legendary Realm and slaying a legend was something she could boast about for months.
However, boasting in front of ordinary Lords was not as satisfying as showing off her achievements in front of the future powerhouse, Tianyuan.
No, wait, how could discussing her achievements be considered boasting? She had indeed slain a Monster Legend. Slaying a veteran legend as a newly minted one was indeed quite impressive.
She needed to showcase her glorious victories while Tianyuan had yet to reach its peak. Otherwise, when Tianyuan became more powerful in the future, her impressive achievements might no longer be worth mentioning.
An opportunity not to be missed.
One must show off while they can.
What could Mu Yuan do but praise her?
He recalled the self-cultivation of an actor, opened his eyes wide by about 45%, maintained his mouth slightly ajar, controlled his breathing to quicken a bit, and then paused before exclaiming, "Ss~wow, that's amazing!"
Shen Linglong's lips curled into a smile, her mood as buoyant as if she had drunk a hundred jin of happy water.
She wasn't here just to show off.
She was well aware that the Tianyuan Territory was currently in a precarious situation.
And she, Shen Linglong, was now a Legend.
"Don't worry, I'll head north from Shiling Town in a few days and I'm sure to find clues for you. Leave it to me," she confidently proclaimed, patting her breastplate until it rang out with a resounding clang.
