Vanguards of the War of Resistance! Let's travel back in time together, classmates!

363 Ambitious Shangguan Yun

After listening to these people's accounts, Shangguan Yun finally understood that these people had indeed come to help him. Although most of them came with selfish motives, such as for the prosperity of their families or for their own missions, they did not do him any harm.

Given the current pace of development of the Tiger Guard and the modernization of its industry, defeating the Japanese and striking a blow against the Western powers is only a matter of time.

However, if he wanted to make his mark on the Central Plains, he would have to deal with cultivation families sooner or later. So the arrival of these people was very timely, as they coincided with his own ideas!

Having thought this through, Shangguan Yun had basically figured out all the key points, so he stood up and spoke.

"In that case, can you all represent your families to show your support for my Tiger Guard Army, or can you only represent your personal will, or the will of a part of your families..." Shangguan Yun looked at the group with a half-smile.

After much deliberation, the group concluded that the opinion of the group likely represented only a portion of the family's will, but their personal honor and disgrace were now tied to the Tiger Guard Army.

However, some individuals stated that they were independent cultivators, and it didn't matter what sect or family they belonged to. They came to the Tiger Guard Army solely because of the Tiger Guard Army's righteous deeds and Shangguan Yun's reputation.

Shangguan Yun was also deeply gratified upon hearing this, and said loudly

"Good... It's rare that you all think so highly of my Tiger Guard Army and Shangguan Yun. Since you have already tied your own interests to the Tiger Guard Army, I, Shangguan Yun, hereby promise you that I will never let you down."

I want to kill those Japanese devils, and of course I won't just sit here and wait to die. I'll definitely take over this area outside the Great Wall. Hehe, who knows, I might even be able to go to the Central Plains and join in the fun, hahaha..."

Everyone was startled upon hearing this, thinking to themselves that the commander was quite arrogant.

However, no one can say for sure. Judging from the current strength of the Tiger Guard Army, the major and minor forces in the Central Plains, including the Jiang family, may not be able to compare with the Tiger Guard Army, let alone others. Suddenly, everyone felt a renewed sense of hope.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Shangguan Yun secretly shook his head, thinking to himself that these powerful families and sects really had a lot of good intentions. Every time there was a change of dynasty, it was their time to stir up trouble.

Nowadays, the major separatist forces in the Central Plains would probably not be able to gain a foothold if they did not have one or two hidden powerful sects or families supporting them.

If that's the case, if I ever want to set my sights on the Central Plains, I'm afraid I'll have to get past these powerful sects and families hiding behind the scenes first.

Moreover, given the current strength of the Tiger Guard Army, although the Central Plains are paying attention to them, they may not be able to reach the point of being wary. So it's not a big deal for them to say a few arrogant words. After all, who hasn't been young before?

However, Shangguan Yun wasn't too worried. The main reason was that this era was very special, with scarce spiritual energy and incomplete laws of heaven and earth. There weren't even any cultivators at the Golden Core stage in the world.

Even if these major sects and families have some trump cards, they won't easily use them unless it's a critical moment for their own safety.

Besides, Shangguan Yun was confident that he had a heaven-defying system and a powerful god like the Azure Dragon Venerable protecting him, so the influence of some cultivation sects was almost non-existent to him.

Now that things have been discussed openly, Shangguan Yun has a basic understanding of everyone's intentions. Moreover, these people are indeed all talented individuals, and if he doesn't make full use of them, then he wouldn't be Shangguan Yun.

Today, everyone has finally seen the true God and spoken their minds, which has made them feel much lighter.

Most of them came under the will of their families and sects, and they had no choice in the matter. Some of them were even very resistant to coming.

Think about it, if you're suddenly sent to train by an unknown person, an army that appears out of nowhere, or a group of forces whose origins are unclear, nobody would want to go there.

That means they're tying their future to the enemy. What if the Tiger Guard Army fails and gets wiped out by the Japanese? They'll have nowhere to turn for help.

However, after talking with Shangguan Yun today, everyone felt reassured. They witnessed firsthand that Shangguan Yun possessed profound cultivation, deep knowledge, and, most importantly, great ambition.

How could the islanders easily eliminate them? It wouldn't be surprising if the three northeastern provinces fell into their hands.

Everyone was in high spirits and spoke freely. Shangguan Yun was also very generous, waving his hand to take out several bottles of good wine and prepare some dishes.

These people were either elites from their sects or second-generation rich kids from their families. They were skilled in all sorts of drinking games and were naturally not shy around wine and meat. They were all overjoyed, their gloom vanished, and they were no longer so afraid of Shangguan Yun.

Even Zheng Xin's eyes lit up. She picked up the wine pot, poured herself a cup, and drank it all in one gulp, exclaiming, "Good wine, good wine!"

Shangguan Yun shook his head and chuckled to himself, thinking to himself that the disciples of these cultivation sects were really not the same as people in the secular world. They were obviously much more forthright. Even a woman like Zheng Xin was so magnanimous!

However, he was also very interested in Zheng Xin's identity. But since Zheng Xin didn't say anything, he was too embarrassed to investigate further. He just felt that this girl was not simple and that he should be careful not to be schemed against by her.
