Looking at Ah Hu who looked like he had bitten his tongue, Yan Zhaoge smiled and shook his head, "Why are you so nervous?"
"Just report the information that we currently have, as well as my deductions. As for the final plan and decision, we just have to wait for notification."
"If they want to start a big show, then let's continue the show."
"If they want to play it safe, then let's immediately hide somewhere safe. After all, this is not the Fire Domain. Even if the Sacred Sun Clan wants to dig three feet underground to find me, it won't be so easy."
Hearing Yan Zhaoge's words, Ah Hu grimaced as if he had a toothache, "Young Master, this time we're really playing a little too big. Under normal circumstances, it's not something that people of our level can participate in."
"If we're not careful, even if Broad Creed Mountain wins on the whole, you might also lose your life."
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge laughed, "Whether it's worth it or not, depends on whether the gains are big enough."
Retracting his smile, Yan Zhaoge said slowly, "No matter how many times they come, I will slaughter Xiao Shen without any mercy."
"But in terms of our clan's overall strength, we are indeed a step behind the Sacred Sun Clan. If we don't think of a way to make up for this gap, we will fall behind step by step."
"After all, the Sacred Sun Clan is also advancing; they won't just stand there and wait for us. On the contrary, they will make use of their lead to weaken us as much as possible."
Yan Zhaoge looked at Ah Hu, "But you, don't take the risk with me, lest you get caught in the crossfire."
Ah Hu gave a simple and honest laugh, "I'll definitely follow you, Young Master."
"Also, if you don't have anyone by your side, that would be too abnormal."
"Immediately leaving the Spirit Wind Canyon could still be said to be concerned about the situation in the Eastern Tang, and the other side might not suspect anything. But if you act alone, they will immediately know that their plan has already been exposed."
Yan Zhaoge patted his shoulder, "First go spread the news, then we'll make plans."
Ah Hu nodded, "Yes, Young Master."
The Broad Creed Mountain group moved stealthily, avoiding the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners' line of sight.
The Sacred Sun Clan had a good idea of what they had in the Eastern Tang, and were keeping a close eye on them, especially on the road back to Jingyang City.
However, Broad Creed Mountain had after all operated here for many years, and also had the support of the King of the Eastern Tang Kingdom, Zhao Shicheng. Some of their secret businesses and strongholds were not known to the Sacred Sun Clan.
As Yan Zhaoge had thought, if he wanted to hide wholeheartedly in the Heaven Domain, the Sacred Sun Clan would be hard pressed to find him within a short period of time.
Unless the Eastern Tang completely fell under their control, allowing them to patiently plough through this place like they were ploughing the fields.
A few days later, Xu Chuan came to find Yan Zhaoge, "Young Master Yan, King Zhao and the others have gone to Prince Jin, Zhao Shilie's fief!"
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Good."
"It's understandable for us to hide and not return to Jingyang City, but Uncle Zhao is the ruler of a country. If he doesn't return to the capital, it will inevitably arouse suspicion."
"But this trip to the rebellious Zhao Shilie's fiefdom is a trip back and forth. I'll drag it out so that I won't leave any traces."
"Zhao Shilie has been injured by Uncle and his connection with the Jingyang Grand Array has been completely severed."
"Without the Jingyang Grand Array, staying in Jingyang City will only result in him being beaten. He can only return to his fief and wait for another opportunity."
"Waiting for the moment when the battle between the East Rising Lord and Elder Qin is settled."
Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin, "In assisting Zhao Shilie, the Sacred Sun Clan should have quite a bit of resources."
"Uncle having taken down his lair, obtaining what he needs, they can just be used to repair the places that were destroyed in the great chaos."
Hearing his words, Xu Chuan nodded, "Zhao Shilie being unable to obtain the Jingyang Grand Array, the role he can play in this great chaos will be extremely limited."
"With the Sacred Sun Clan's peak experts being preoccupied with their own affairs, they will most likely not be able to take care of him. Zhao Shilie can only hide away, quietly waiting for the dust to settle before coming out."
"If the East Rising Lord and the other experts of the Sacred Sun Clan win, Jingyang City will still be hard pressed to defend at that time. Zhao Shilie will naturally be able to make a comeback behind the East Rising Lord and the others."
"If the East Rising Lord and the others lose, then Zhao Shilie will decisively retreat towards the Fire Domain, seeking the protection of the Sacred Sun Clan."
Xu Chuan looked at Yan Zhaoge rather hesitantly, "It's just that, as Young Master Yan predicted, the Sacred Sun Clan has experts that surpass our previous estimates in hiding, seemingly having other plans. Over at Zhao Shilie's fief …"
Yan Zhaoge shook his head, "Zhao Shilie and the others already don't care about it."
"Moreover …" Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes, "Moreover, I killed Xiao Shen. Their main target now is me."
Saying thus, he swivelled his head to look at Xu Chuan, "It has been hard on Elder Xu and the others of the clan to accompany me in taking this risk."
Xu Chuan smiled, "Young Master Yan's words are too heavy. I believe that Young Master Yan will definitely be able to turn the situation around."
Yan Zhaoge glanced at him, "What did you see?"
Xu Chuan sent over, "While the Sacred Sun Clan has experts roaming about, Young Master Yan should also have something to rely on, right?"
"Young Master Yan killing Xiao Shen should only have been an accident. His original target might not be the Sacred Sun Clan, but I guess …"
Xu Chuan wrote a 'Yan' character in the air with his finger.
Yan Zhaoge slowly shook his head, "This matter involves secrets; even I am not sure what the situation will be like now."
"However, you had best not be too optimistic. Travelling together with me, the situation that you will be facing may very well be even worse than the worst case scenario that you can imagine."
Hearing Yan Zhaoge's words, Xu Chuan was also a little shocked.
However, he did not ask about it, instead answering solemnly, "As one of our clan's Acting Elders in the Eastern Tang, with external enemies invading the Eastern Tang, I am duty-bound to stand on the frontlines. Even if I die as a result, this tribulation is something that I am fated to face."
Yan Zhaoge waved his hands, "That may be so, but sometimes, giving up is a wise move. It is not a crime of war, and should not be blamed for it."
"As for me, I was born in Broad Creed Mountain, my father being the clan's First Seat Elder. I enjoy the clan's glory, enjoy the convenience of the clan's resources, and obtain the clan's protection, shielding me from wind and rain."
"Then, when it is time for me to stand up and make a sacrifice for the clan, I will naturally not shrink back."
"Dying for nothing, dying a worthless death, I will definitely not do it. However, bearing the risk, I do not mind."
Yan Zhaoge looked at Xu Chuan, "However, there is no need for you to accompany me."
Xu Chuan answered solemnly, "Rest easy, Young Master Yan. I know the rules. What I should not ask, I will not speak out of turn."
"As for the others, whether they are willing or not, I will not force them. At the same time, I will also make arrangements, guaranteeing that no one will suspect anything."
"As long as I do not instead become a burden, I myself, am willing to take this risk together with Young Master Yan."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "You definitely won't be a burden. Elder Xu, you are a Xiantian Martial Scholar, your cultivation base even higher than mine."
"However, in this matter, the main point is not the level of our cultivation bases." Gazing into the distance, Yan Zhaoge said softly to himself, "This time, the main point lies in the grasp of information, in concealing our true goals."
"Life is like a play; it all depends on acting skills ah!"
