Chapter 855 Xuanming Iron Guards!
As Yin Jingyi listened to his father's account, an indescribable surge of emotion welled up within him.
The Xuanming Iron Guards, a once formidable force of Dao soldiers, have now become a trump card in their hands.
If they can unite this force, then confronting the royal family will no longer be a distant dream.
"Father, how do we contact the Xuanming Iron Guards? Are they willing to join forces with us?"
Yin Jingyi asked impatiently, time was of the essence, and every minute and every second was a matter of life and death for the Yin family.
"Don't worry about that. The current commander of the Xuanming Iron Guard has an inextricable connection with my Yin family."
"Back then, it was our Yin family that saved him from danger, which is why he entrusted the Xuanming Iron Guards to us for protection. Now, as long as we show our sincerity, they will definitely be willing to join forces with us to fight against the royal family."
Yin Ting smiled slightly, a hint of confidence flashing in his eyes.
"There's no time to lose, Father! Let's act immediately!"
After listening to his father's account, a burning light flashed in Yin Jingyi's eyes. He excitedly slammed his hand on the table, his voice filled with determination.
"Jingyi, prepare immediately to travel alone to the Xuanming Iron Guard's hiding place. I will contact the Feng, Liu, Tong and other powerful families there to gain their support."
"Remember, time is of the essence. Our operation must be completed before the Great Qian royal family can react!"
Yin Ting nodded, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes, and said in a deep voice.
Yin Jingyi responded, turned and walked towards the stable, where he selected a plump and strong warhorse.
He mounted his horse, gripped the reins tightly, and with a crisp crack of the whip, the warhorse neighed and galloped off with the wind at its hooves, carrying Yin Jingyi toward the hiding place of the Xuanming Iron Guards.
The sound of hooves thundered as Yin Jingyi rode alone along the road leading to the hidden location of the Xuanming Iron Guards.
The Xuanming Iron Guards' hiding place is located in a deep mountain on the edge of the imperial city. The terrain here is treacherous, with overlapping mountains and lush forests, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Following the secret passage given by his father, Yin Jingyi traversed dense forest after dense forest, finally arriving at the hidden valley.
He walked along the winding mountain road, and patrolling soldiers would occasionally appear in his line of sight.
They were dressed in black armor, wielding gleaming weapons, their eyes revealing indifference.
Yin Jingyi did not stop. He continued forward until he arrived at a spacious campsite.
This is the encampment of the Xuanming Iron Guards, with numerous tents, fluttering flags, and an imposing and orderly military appearance.
He dismounted and walked towards the camp gate, informing the guards of his purpose.
A moment later, a general in armor with a stern face walked out of the camp gate.
He looked Yin Jingyi up and down, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected the Yin family to send a young man to contact them.
"Yin Jingyi? You're Yin Ting's son?"
The general sized up Yin Jingyi, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"It is indeed I, the junior, who have come here on behalf of the Yin family, and also on behalf of all the aristocratic families who are dissatisfied with the royal family. I implore the Xuanming Iron Guards to join forces with us to fight against the royal family and seek justice for the injustices and sacrifices of that year!"
Yin Jingyi bowed respectfully and said.
Upon hearing this, a complex look flashed in the general's eyes. He remained silent for a moment, then waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to step back.
The Xuanming Iron Guards have an inextricable connection with the Yin family. It was the Yin family that saved them from danger back then. Now that the Yin family has sent people to see them, they must have something important to discuss.
"Come with me."
The general said something and turned to walk towards the camp.
Yin Jingyi followed behind him, feeling somewhat uneasy.
He knew he was about to face a group of Dao soldiers filled with resentment, and whether they would be willing to join forces with him was still unknown.
Upon entering the tent, Yin Jingyi saw an elderly man sitting behind a table.
He was dressed in black armor, his face was stern, and his eyes revealed a profound sense of having experienced many hardships.
This is the commander of the Xuanming Iron Guard, a descendant of that once world-renowned genius.
"My name is Yin Jingyi. Greetings, Commander."
Yin Jingyi stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said.
The old man looked up at him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected the Yin family to send a young man to meet him.
"You're from the Yin family, what business do you have with me?"
However, he did not show any emotion, and simply said it calmly.
Yin Jingyi took a deep breath and began to explain the purpose of his trip.
He recounted the Yin family's current predicament and their determination towards the royal family, his words conveying a resolute resolve that moved the old man.
After listening to Yin Jingyi's account, the old man remained silent for a moment, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
The Xuanming Iron Guards and the royal family have an irreconcilable feud.
It was the royal family that betrayed them, which nearly led to their complete annihilation.
However, back then, it was nothing short of a pipe dream for them to do anything to the Great Qian Dynasty with their remaining troops. Even though the Xuanming Iron Guards have recovered some strength, they are still like ants trying to shake a tree when facing the Great Qian Dynasty.
Now that the Yin family has come to seek an alliance, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for the Xuanming Iron Guards, who have been yearning for revenge for decades.
However, the old man also understood that joining forces to fight against the royal family was no easy task.
What they need is an ally who can fight alongside them, not a burden that only holds them back.
"Young man from the Yin family, do you realize that your words signify a complete break with the royal family, with no turning back?"
The old man slowly raised his head and glanced at Yin Jingyi.
"I am well aware of the importance of this journey, and I understand that once I embark on this path, there is no turning back."
"But I understand even better that if we continue to sit idly by and watch the royal family oppress the powerful clans, then our future will forever be controlled by the royal family, and our descendants will forever live in the shadow of the royal family."
"This junior does not wish to see this scene, and I believe that the soldiers of the Xuanming Iron Guard do not wish to see this scene either."
Yin Jingyi nodded, his tone firm.
Well... whatever the reason, at least they've shouted out the slogan first... anyway, what they're doing now is real and concrete.
Upon hearing this, the old man sitting behind the desk was surprised. He hadn't expected that this younger member of the Yin family would have such courage and boldness to confront the majesty of the royal family.
However, he didn't really trust Yin Jingyi's high-sounding words, but there was one thing Yin Jingyi thought was true.
Whatever their reasons, as long as they want to devote all their efforts to dealing with the Great Qian royal family... that's enough!
"Young man from the Yin family, do you know how deep the Xuanming Iron Guards' resentment towards the royal family runs? The royal family we once swore to serve to the death actually betrayed us and the entire Xuanming Iron Guards for a moment's gain."
"This resentment is now like a brand, deeply etched into our hearts, and can never be erased."
He paused for a moment, then slowly began to speak.
