I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 1388 - 679: Storming Shangjing City
Capítulo 1388: Chapter 679: Storming Shangjing City
“These days, I’ve been pondering a question.”
“What is it?”
Chen Huaiyi’s gaze sharpened as he said in a deep voice:
“Who leaked Old Wu’s whereabouts!?”
This place, situated deep in the mountains, has been a very secretive and peaceful sanctuary for over two hundred years, known only to a select few.
Besides the Chen Family Village folks who rarely leave the village, only he and Chen Yuan knew of this location.
They certainly wouldn’t have leaked Wu Daozi’s whereabouts, hence the problem arises.
Who could it be?
Who has such capabilities to discover this place?
The court?
If the court truly had such capabilities, they wouldn’t have spent so much time without finding any clues. Thus, Chen Huaiyi suspects that someone leaked Wu Daozi’s whereabouts to the court.
This led to several True Monarchs from the court arriving, committing such an offense.
Chen Yuan’s gaze darkened. He, too, harbored suspicions, with a few suspects in mind, but does it matter at this point?
Settling accounts later won’t be too late; their biggest issue now is storming Shangjing City!
“Let’s discuss this matter later, Second Uncle; return to the Seven Killings Hall first.”
“What do you mean?”
“This time, Jingtai wishes to become the Human Emperor, which the Immortal Sects across the world won’t agree to. Neither will various factions. Some might choose to watch from the sidelines, but undoubtedly, some will act at that time.
The forces secretly controlled by the Seven Killings Hall are not weak. In the future, when I want to advance into Blood State, the Seven Killings Hall will be one of the biggest hidden dangers, and that will be the time for Second Uncle to act.”
Good steel should be used wisely; exposing our strength prematurely would be inadvisable.
After all, he is not alone; he already has an extremely powerful force by his side. Shushan, the Taoist Divine Palace, and Tianxu Old Dao are all not much inferior to just Chen Huaiyi alone.
It’s best to keep his identity hidden for now.
“Do you have confidence?”
“Nephew never undertakes actions without assurance. Besides, for the murder of my elder brother, the hatred of my siblings, the pursuit of justice, even without certainty, I must go on this trip.
To completely sever ties with the Sima Family and establish Shuzhou independently!”
“Very well…”
Seeing the determined look in Chen Yuan’s eyes, Chen Huaiyi first frowned and then quickly relaxed his expression, letting out a light sigh.
“Second Uncle, there’s no need to be this way. In fact, besides not revealing my identity, I wish for you to help me with one more task.”
Chen Yuan turned his head to look at Chen Huaiyi and said.
“What is it?”
“Help me watch over Shuzhou’s foundation; guard against Prince Zhen Nan, Nangong Lie moving north, and guard against Xiang Family’s covert actions on Shuzhou.”
Neither the Xiang Family nor Nangong Lie are trustworthy in Chen Yuan’s eyes; they are likely to take advantage when he is fighting fiercely at the front.
However, the trip to the Capital is inevitable!
Not only must he go, but he must also take the majority of the top forces with him, leaving Shuzhou somewhat vulnerable.
“Alright.”
Without hesitation, Chen Huaiyi nodded in agreement.
“Let’s go. The deceased are gone; staying here only brings melancholy, which is unnecessary. These grievances can only be washed away with the Sima Family’s blood.”
Chen Yuan would neither shout himself hoarse nor cry out loud. It is not in his nature. Even if everyone around him were dead, he probably wouldn’t shed a single tear.
Once entering the Jianghu, the treacherous waters are bound to engulf, sooner or later. The living must return the blow tenfold, a hundredfold.
Forget the bullshit about sparing others when possible; Chen Yuan believes in the philosophy that if you kill my people, I will exterminate your entire family, your entire clan, leaving no potential threats!
“Alright.”
…
…
Leaving Luochen Mountain and the Chen Family Village, Chen Yuan’s expression remained calm, as deep and somber as the ocean, casting his gaze toward the South State, eyes narrowed slightly.
According to his original plan, after acquiring the Blood Soul Wood, he intended to act against Nangong Lie directly, to gain Qi Fortune and achieve the Yang God opportunity.
Furthermore, he aimed to directly control the elite South State Zhen Nan Army.
Would he allow others to snore beside his bed?
Once Chen Yuan raised his banner in Shuzhou, despite its mountainous terrain and rugged roads, geographically it’s still besieged on all sides, facing threats not only from the court and the Blood State Demon Dao.
There’s also Prince Zhen Nan, Nangong Lie!
Only by eliminating the immediate threats can he dare decisively to march north!
Unfortunately, things do not always go as planned.
The heavens do not favor him alone; the whims of fate are unpredictable; no one possesses a divine foresight. Chen Yuan merely knew Jingtai was likely about to reveal his cards.
But, a high probability remains that he will retreat to the Central Plains, occupying half the nation, watching the world descend into chaos, and then clean up the mess in the end.
This might just be the case now.
However, his strength seems to have issues, needing national fortune to support him; otherwise, he wouldn’t commit such an act, placing the court in jeopardy.
He cannot wait.
The revenge for Wu Daozi, the revenge for Chen Family Village, the revenge for hundreds of thousands of Yin Souls, and for Jiang He’s old acquaintance—all these drive him to act.
Moreover, if one were to think darkly. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
If he doesn’t rescue Li Hongshuang, what will become of the Taoist Divine Palace?
It will fall apart!
The very founding purpose of the faction will perish, and apart from Su Ziyue, the remaining Daoists will no longer trust him. Even Moluo, who placed his trust in him, will not believe in him.
Thus, he must act.
Leaving Luochen Mountain, Chen Yuan hastened towards Shushan and simultaneously sought to contact the other Daoists of the Taoist Divine Palace.
Chu Changfeng had already emerged from seclusion and had broken through to the Yang God, achieving True Monarch status.
