Chapter 379: Chapter 172: Time and Opportunity (Request for Subscription)

Where is the path to survival?

Xu Jin concealed himself under a large tree outside the Envoy Mansion for two whole two-hour periods.

He racked his brain.

One plan after another emerged in his mind, but each was vetoed by Xu Jin.

Including the risky elimination of Zhang Shuo and He Yulan, two disciples from Star Hall, none could carve a path to survival for the disciples of the Da Chen National Daoist School.

The danger faced by the disciples of the Da Chen National Daoist School was originally from the disciples of Star Hall.

However, after Zhang Shuo met the king of the Purple Wing Clan as an envoy from Cangming Star Hall, the situation had changed.

Next, the main danger facing the disciples from Da Chen National Daoist School would be the pursuit of fourth-tier experts from the third-tier Purple Wind Star Domain.

This was nearly an unsolvable dilemma!

Before this, Xu Jin had stayed outside the Envoy Mansion for two two-hour periods, confirming a suspicion.

That was the Guicang Star Pattern he constantly used to conceal his aura, which seemed to affect the positional alerts from Star Hall.

Otherwise, by now there should have been at least two alerts, so why was Zhang Shuo completely quiet?

If it had no effect, even if Zhang Shuo couldn’t find Xu Jin at the moment, he shouldn’t be cultivating with such concentration!

He should be out searching for Xu Jin.

Based on this, Xu Jin made a judgment.

Then he formulated a new plan, to kill He Yulan.

By killing He Yulan and with the Guicang Star Pattern concealing his location, the Star Hall’s alert about the position of Da Chen National Daoist School disciples would become ineffective.

For a short time, the search and kill teams would not be able to accurately locate the Da Chen National Daoist School disciples.

But this idea was also vetoed by Xu Jin.

Without the positions being alerted, but with the repulsion from the Star Will, the Purple Wing Clan could still approximate their location.

Being hunted by twelve teams organized by fourth-tier Star Condensation experts, being discovered and eliminated was only a matter of time.

As for taking the risk to eliminate Zhang Shuo?

Useless!

The consequence of killing Zhang Shuo would probably drive Zi Hao, the king of the Purple Wing Clan, completely mad.

Zi Hao’s life was in the hands of Cangming Star Hall, and if Cangming Star Hall’s envoy Zhang Shuo was killed within the Royal Court, Zi Hao would desperately capture the Da Chen National Daoist School disciples to explain to Cangming Star Hall.

This would only lead the Da Chen National Daoist School disciples to a quicker death.

Unable to find a path to survival.

Unable to find a solution to break the stalemate.

But during these two hour-periods, Xu Jin came up with a somewhat risky plan—if the problem couldn’t be resolved, then resolve the person who caused the problem!

******

In the dead of night, a Purple Wing Guard of the Ninth Layer of Refining Star tensely held a piece of purple broken wing tip with a Jade Token attached.

This guard, who was on duty at the Royal Palace gate, had just dozed off and dreamt. Following the dream, he discovered this beneath his feet.

In the dream, a divine being instructed him to deliver this letter to their king, stating that it concerned the life and death of the Purple Wing Clan.

The guard naturally didn’t believe it!

It was just a dream!

Naive to believe!

Yet what was frightening was that upon waking, the purple broken wing tip and Jade Token he saw in the dream truly appeared at his feet.

Even more terrifying was that the aura on the purple broken wing tip was unmistakably that of their king!

This made the guard unable to stand firm.

Better not mention the dream.

But the aura from their king emitting from the purple broken wing tip couldn’t be faked!

He reported it up the chain.

The Great Commander of the Royal Palace, Zi Chi, after inspecting the purple broken wing tip, confirmed it was a keepsake of their king and solemnly decided to report the matter to their king.

The so-called matter concerning the survival of the entire clan, no one dared take it lightly, especially now with the invasion of the alien race.

Great Commander Zi Chi then, together with the guard, awakened their sleeping king in the dead of night.

Zi Hao didn’t lose his temper.

Instead, he skeptically took the objects, the purple broken wing tip, indeed was the keepsake he had helplessly sent out before.

However, it was a mid-level keepsake, a tier lower than the keepsake of Zhang Shuo, the envoy from Cangming Star Hall who had come during the day.

Amidst confusion, Zi Hao channeled his Star Power into the Jade Token, directly breaking through the symbolic seal, and instantly, the contents of the Jade Token appeared in Zi Hao’s mind.

The instant he saw it, Zi Hao instantly stood up.

He glanced around in astonishment and then asked, "The two from the Envoy Mansion, are they both safe?"

"Your Majesty, they are safe!

Two two-hour periods earlier, there were reports that they had rested separately. Moreover, the Envoy Mansion is only 200 meters from the Royal Palace, any anomalies would be promptly addressed, and you can rest assured," the Great Commander Zi Chi said.

Zi Hao paced back and forth in the great hall paved entirely with Third Tier Star Jade, struggling internally!

Wanting to accept fate!

Yet unwilling to accept fate!

After 100 breaths, Zi Hao finally made a decision!

With the opportunity before him, he must give it a try!

There was nothing to lose by trying!

Who knows, it might succeed?

If successful, he would become like the supreme king of the third-tier Purple Wind Star Domain from years ago.

Not a king under the control of death, constantly commanded by others!

"Zi Chi, 100 meters to the left of the Royal Palace gate, there is a large tree, under the tree, there is a gentleman from the Human Race, please invite him here," Zi Hao ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty, do you want him alive or dead?" Zi Chi’s aura surged with killing intent instantly, with an intruder sneaking into the Royal Court, this was serious!

Zi Hao paused, suddenly realizing Zi Chi had misheard ’capture’!

"It’s invite!

Take two more fourth-tier guards and kindly invite him over!

Of course, if he tries to escape, then capture him alive.

Remember, whatever happens, his life must not be harmed!
