Indeed, some cultivators had already thought of this and promptly asked the Zhenyang Sect disciples their opinions and plans regarding the beast tide and the market.
On hearing the inquiries, the leading Zhenyang Sect disciple replied gravely, "Currently, the sect hasn't communicated any specific arrangements."
"However, fellow daoists, a target as large as the Qianchuan Market is highly likely to attract the attack of the Beast Tide Army, and thus requires substantial support from cultivators."
"Moreover, it is far too dangerous for loose cultivators to remain outside alone; we hope that unless it's necessary, no one will leave the market rashly."
At this point, he spoke earnestly, "Many of you have long been residents here, with no shortage of family members among you, regardless of whether you have properties here or not, we hope you can stay and join us in repelling the attacks of the beast tide!"
