### ** Chapter 20: The consequences of battle **
The next morning brought with an air of exhaustion and sadness. The village of the renegados was in ruins, with barricade destroyed and bodies scattered throughout the floor. Liang Feng and Mei Lin were in the center of the village, helping to take care of the injured and evaluating the damage.
"We lost a lot of cultivators," "said Kang's leader, his voice charged to regret. "" But we were able to repel the attack. "
Liang Feng looked at Mei Lin, feeling a wave of guilt. He knew that this victory had a high cost, and they needed to ensure that it would not be in vain.
"We need to prepare for the next attack," - said, his firm voice.
Mei Lin waved her head, her serious expression.
"They will not give up so easy. We need to strengthen our defenses and find a way to attack their basis directly."
The Kang leader agreed, designating messengers for each sector of the village. Liang Feng and Mei Lin were in charge of leading the reconstruction of the barricades and the preparation of new pitfalls.
"Let's make sure they do not get around to surprise again," said Liang Feng, looking at the cultivators around him.
They spent the rest of the day working, rebuilding the barricades and preparing new traps. As the sun began to put, the tension increased again.
Finally, the sound of trumpets echoed the distance, announcing the arrival of a new army. Liang Feng and Mei Lin rose in the barricades, observing the horde of cultivators that approached.
"They're here," he whispered Mei Lin, holding his spiritual france.
Liang Feng waved his head, circulating the IQ in his body. He knew this would be the definitive test of his abilities and determination.
- "Prepare!" He shouted his voice echoing through the village.
The champ of the shadows of the shadows advanced, launching arrows and IQ attacks against the barricades. Liang Feng and Mei Lin led the defense, using his skills to protect the village and counter-attack.
The battle was intense, with both sides suffering down. However, Liang Feng and Mei Lin worked together as a team, using their strength and strategy to keep the main gate safe.
"" We can not let them get! " Liang Feng shouted, diverting from an attack and counterattacking with a powerful blow.
Mei Lin used his spiritual fan to create Qi barriers, protecting the village cultivators and launching the needy of the invaders.
- "Keep the line!" He ordered his voice and determined.
Finally, after hours of fight, the army of the clan of the shadows began to retreat. Liang Feng and Mei Lin looked at the battlefield, feeling a wave of relief and exhaustion.
"We got," said Mei Lin, his voice full of hope.
Liang Feng looked at her, feeling a new determination to burn inside him.
"This is just the beginning. But we're on the right way."
