Chapter 557: Chapter 543: Begin the Operation

"Treasure!" Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Qi of the Four Symbols Sect’s eyes burst with radiant light, as he intensely gazed at Martial Break Army Commander. Although he didn’t speak again, his eyes were filled with doubt.

"Our Four Symbols Sect and your Taiyi Palace have an age-old grudge, aren’t you aware of that? And now you’re saying that you’re bringing me a treasure, do you really think I would believe that?" After a long silence and unable to discern Martial Break Army Commander’s true intentions, Senior Brother Qi spoke in a grave tone.

Martial Break Army Commander chuckled lightly in response: "In this world, there are no true enemies nor true friends, only interests are eternal and unchanging. Isn’t the real conflict between our Taiyi Palace and your Four Symbols Sect caused by interests?"

Senior Brother Qi’s face was full of bewilderment; the Martial Break Army Commander who was just at odds with him was now saying these words to him, making it even more confusing to understand what Martial Break Army Commander’s purpose was.

"Alright, I won’t waste words either." At this point, Martial Break Army Commander discreetly glanced around and then used his strength for a soundless whisper, going straight to the point.

"This time, our Taiyi Palace’s mission is under the orders of Devilish Disciple Lin Feng of the Main Hall. Among these Earth Hall Disciples, there is a new disciple I’m particularly not fond of, and on him, there happens to be a Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein. He’s only recently entered the King Martial level, and I believe you must be interested, right?"

"If you are willing, you go and move against that new disciple, I will definitely not stop you, I might even block other Earth Hall disciples, acting as if I haven’t seen anything. If you kill him, that Ferocious Beast with Emperor Vein will naturally be yours too. That’s the transaction I want to make with you," said Martial Break Army Commander slowly.

A Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein!

Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Qi’s body trembled, and his eyes erupted with intense brilliance.

Owning a Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein, as long as it grows up, it will at least reach the Emperor Martial Realm. Who in Central State wouldn’t want such a beast to exert effort for them in the future?

While Senior Brother Qi was somewhat tempted, he wasn’t blinded by the immediate allure and coldly chuckled, "Since the opponent is a new disciple and possesses a Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein, and since you find him very displeasing, why don’t you take action yourself?"

"Don’t tell me it’s because of Taiyi Palace’s ridiculous rules. This place is far from the emperor’s reach; you could create an accident and then kill that new disciple. It shouldn’t be that difficult, right?"

Hearing Senior Brother Qi’s words, Martial Break Army Commander’s expression instantly darkened, his fists clenched, and his gaze turned icy - a deep pain in his heart.

During the last altercation against Xiao Ye, he not only nearly lost his life, but also had to hand over all his most precious treasures – a disgrace he couldn’t forget.

Martial Break Army Commander took a deep breath to calm himself and then indifferently spoke, "Because that new disciple has what I just mentioned – an order from Lin Feng of the Heavenly Martial, and he has already become wary of me, that’s why I dare not make a move."

"Lin Feng’s Heavenly Martial Order!" Senior Brother Qi’s eyes exploded with furious flames, and he stood up, shouting angrily.

"Are you playing me? The Heavenly Martial Order is on that new disciple, and you want me to move against him, isn’t that courting death?"

"Hehe..." Martial Break Army Commander mocked with a laugh, "If I’m not mistaken, you must be the elite disciple from the ’Heavenly Phenomenon Branch’ of the Four Symbols Sect—Qi Lianshan, right?"

"The rumor has it that Qi Lianshan possesses the strength of Level 5 King Martial, his power is immense, his reputation shakes the Four Symbols Sect, and he looks down upon his peers. Are you really afraid of this little danger?"

Although there’s a significant gap between the Four Symbols Sect and the Taiyi Palace, the sect is still a powerful martial force, with disciples ranked from high to low into four branches: Wuxiang, Heavenly Phenomenon, Earth Formation, and Human Image.

Qi Lianshan is part of the Heavenly Phenomenon Branch, and as an elite disciple, his strength is certainly not to be underestimated.

"Hmph, do you think provoking me like this will work? Get out of here now!" Qi Lianshan said coldly and flicked his sleeves, then turned around to sit cross-legged.

"Hehe, Qi Lianshan, you don’t need to be nervous. If I’ve come to you, I naturally have a complete strategy, assuring your success in obtaining that Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein," Martial Break Army Commander did not leave but instead sat down cross-legged next to Qi Lianshan.

"That new disciple, Xiao Ye, has yet to appear; he must be in a crucial moment of his cultivation. Thus, he’s unaware of your identity, and his guard against you surely can’t be that high. If you approach quietly, and make your move before he gets out the Heavenly Martial Order, wouldn’t that be a success?"

"I believe with your strength, preventing Xiao Ye from using the Heavenly Martial Order should be easy," said Martial Break Army Commander.

Qi Lianshan’s heart stirred upon hearing this, then he began to ponder.

Indeed, the method proposed by Martial Break Army Commander had a very high chance of success for him, which shook his resolve.

"What cultivation level is that new disciple Xiao Ye at now?" Qi Lianshan inspected Martial Break Army Commander’s demeanor, which didn’t seem deceitful, and asked for confirmation.

"He’s been at the King Martial level for less than a month, so you need not worry. Just act according to my plan, and success is guaranteed," Martial Break Army Commander replied.

"Just less than a month?" Qi Lianshan was startled slightly; his confidence grew stronger.

"Fine, for now, I’ll trust you. But if you dare deceive me, even at the cost of grave injury, I will annihilate your group!" Qi Lianshan considered it for a long time, then fiercely gritted his teeth and said.

Fortune favors the bold!

If what Martial Break Army Commander was saying was true, then he definitely could take the risk, for a Ferocious Beast with an Emperor Vein was certainly worth a gamble for him.

"Rest assured, what I’ve said is absolutely true." Martial Break Army Commander stood up, knowing that he had swayed the other’s mind and continued, "If you’re ready to make a move, let me know in advance. I’ll take the other Earth Hall disciples away, far from here to facilitate your action."

"If that’s the case, then there’s no time to lose, I’ll act after a stick of incense. Go and make the arrangements." Qi Lianshan temporarily formed an alliance with Martial Break Army Commander.

"Good!" Martial Break Army Commander didn’t dally and turned to return, then woke up all the Earth Hall disciples present.

"Everyone, the Four Symbols Sect has more people than us and is stronger as well. I’ve thought it over, and it’s unsafe to cultivate here. Fortunately, I know of a place within Chaoyang Valley that is more suitable for cultivation, where Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi is much denser than here. I’ll take you there."

Martial Break Army Commander secretly transmitted his voice with a surge of strength.

The dozen or so Earth Hall Disciples were slightly stunned and although dissatisfied, they nodded their heads, very interested in the place described by Martial Break Army Commander.
