Eight Ancient Continent, Ice Fire Alliance.
After Lu An and Yao returned, Liu Yi heaved a sigh of relief. When the two of them left, she was very nervous. Now that they had returned safely, it seemed like she was overthinking and scaring herself.
Lu An And Yao told her what had happened in Sengoku, including Chen's motive and how he had bribed the Hachiko clan with elixirs. When Liu Yi heard that Chen's real motive was to maintain the balance between the two sides of the war and make both sides suffer, she was stunned. Then, she shook her head with a bitter smile.
This Chen thought too highly of himself, or perhaps he did not realize the complexity of the war. The war between Heavenly Masters was different from the war between ordinary people. There was a limit to the effect of schemes and the influence they could have on the situation was limited. Other than the strongest person on both sides, no one could influence the entire war with their own strength.
Just as Lu An finished speaking, Yao could not hold back her curiosity. She looked at Lu An and asked, "What did my husband and Chen talk about just now?"
Liu Yi was stunned. After all, Lu An did not mention that he had talked to Chen alone. Lu An was never one to hide things. It was impossible for him to forget something that had happened recently. Why did he not mention it this time?
Indeed, Lu An did not forget. Initially, he wanted to wait for Yao to leave before telling Liu Yi about this matter alone. After all, although Chen remained silent during their last conversation, he did not admit that he wanted to fight for the position of Immortal Master. As such, he could not confirm it and could only consider it as a guess. Even if there was a slight possibility that he was wrong, he did not want to hurt Yao.
However, since Yao asked, Lu An decided to tell her the truth. In fact, Lu An wanted to let Yao know about this as well. Even if he did not say it with certainty, he wanted Yao to be on guard against Chen and not be as defenseless as before.
Lu An told Yao and Liu Yi the details of their conversation. When Yao and Liu Yi heard their conversation and state, their expressions changed significantly.
Yao was obviously flustered. She did not expect that her existence would have such an effect. And after Liu Yi heard Lu An's words, she basically confirmed this fact in her heart.
That's right, Chen had enough motive to do such a thing. Not to mention Sengoku, even a normal Chamber of Commerce would be in a bloodbath. Although Sengoku had a very high level of civilization, it would not be easy to accept that something that had been given to them since they were young was suddenly taken away by another person.
"Husband is right," Liu Yi looked towards Yao and said. "One must always be on guard against others. Little sister, you still have to be more careful."
When Yao heard Liu Yi say the same thing, her heart immediately became even more depressed and heavy. She believed in Liu Yi and had always believed in Liu Yi's judgment. That was why she was so sad.
Looking at Yao's appearance, Lu An and Liu Yi both felt their hearts ache, but there was nothing they could do. In order to make Yao vigilant, they had to do this.
Next, it was time to discuss more important matters.
Twenty days later, on the first day of September, how to catch Qi!
Lu An took a deep breath, organized his thoughts, and asked Liu Yi, "Do you have any ideas?"
"I don't think Qi will go to the appointment alone," Liu Yi said after thinking seriously, "There must be a Deathkin powerhouse by his side. But I don't think there will be a Heavenly King powerhouse protecting him. With the status of a Heavenly King powerhouse, every one of them is a person who can take charge of an area and has a powerful position in the war. And with Qi's importance, he is not worthy of being protected by a Heavenly King powerhouse. "
Lu An nodded in agreement. The Hachiko clan's patriarch and core members were only Heavenly King powerhouses. Asking someone of that level to protect Qi? That was simply impossible.
"But the people around Qi should not be weak." Liu Yi continued, "Chen said that there are two people around Qi, and both of them are very strong. In addition, Chen was captured alive. These two people should be stronger than everyone around us, including Zhu He."
Hearing Liu Yi's analysis, Lu An's heart tightened.
"Chen is very strong. Furthermore, Chen has divine energy that is the best counter to the energy of death. Divine energy is an extreme attribute, and other than my husband and Little Sister Yao, no one else has such a powerful attribute. " Liu Yi said, "The danger level of this battle is different from all the previous battles. Under extreme attributes, simply stacking people will lose its effect. If my husband and Little Sister Yao were stronger, it would be fine. But with their current strength, I don't think they will win this battle. "
Lu An nodded, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.
Liu Yi's words were the truth based on an objective analysis. She did not boost the other party's power at all. Furthermore, Liu Yi knew that in terms of battle and extreme attributes, Lu An's ability to understand far surpassed hers.
That was indeed the case. Lu An agreed with Liu Yi's words. He, who possessed four extreme attributes, had a deep understanding of the strength of extreme attributes. It could be said that in a situation where extreme attributes were possessed, two parties of the same realm would display an extremely large disparity in strength. Once they fought, the party without extreme attributes would basically have nothing to fear. The strength of extreme attributes was not just a little bit.
"Then what should we do?" Yao was a little worried. In such a dangerous situation, once they took action, it was very likely that they would be sending themselves to their deaths!
Lu An pondered seriously. Looking at Liu Yi, he asked, "If I ask the two guards from the Hachiko clan to release the two Divine Lords on the first day of the ninth lunar month, do you think it's possible?"
Release the two Divine Lords?
Liu Yi's brows slightly creased. After pondering for a moment, she said, "There's definitely no problem in terms of strength. However, I believe that the two from the Hachiko clan won't let the Divine Lords go."
Lu An's heart tightened when he heard this. He asked, "Why? Chen is a ninth rank expert as well! "
"This isn't a problem of strength, but a problem of status." Liu Yi said seriously, "The Divine Lords are second only to the Divine Master and the Divine Empress. Their status is fundamentally different from others. I heard from Yao that the Divine Master and the Divine Empress sometimes don't manage too many things. Most of the things are left to the four Divine Lords. The Hachiko clan must be very clear about this. "
Lu An looked at Yao. Yao nodded lightly and said, "In the past, Sengoku was led by the Divine Lords when they went out on important missions. Furthermore, the Divine Lords can make decisions as they wish. There's no need to report."
Lu An frowned slightly and asked, "What about the Divine Lords?"
"That's possible. However, it's also possible that they won't release them." Liu Yi said, "We have to make preparations. We can't tell the two from the Hachiko clan about this in advance. It's best if we leave suddenly. This way, they won't have time to think about it properly. We also have to make preparations on our side. Even if the people from Sengoku come out, our people can cover them from the outside. At least, we can prevent the Undead from escaping. "
"Alright." Lu An nodded. He was very relieved to leave the matter of choosing people to Liu Yi.
After chatting with Yao and Liu Yi for a while, Lu An wanted to leave and head to the underground world to continue cultivating. However, when he saw Yao's disappointed expression, his heart tightened. After thinking about it, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he wanted to talk to his wife alone.
Lu An sent Yao back to her private pavilion and sent her to her room. He knew that his wife was disappointed because of the Divine Master's position. He knew his wife too well. With Yao's personality, she would even wonder if it was her fault.
"Don't think too much." Lu An looked at Yao and said softly, "The Divine Master's position has always been occupied by the capable. It doesn't belong to anyone by birth. Don't think of the Divine Master's position as a kind of power. Think of it as a responsibility. The Divine Master will lead Sengoku to revive and become the ruler of the world again. This requires the strongest person to inherit the Divine Master's position. The Divine Master and Divine Empress must have considered more than us. If even they chose you, it means that you must be more suitable than anyone else. "
As he spoke, Lu An smiled and said, "If possible, I don't want you to be the Divine Master. After all, it's too tiring to bear the burden of responsibility."
Yao raised her head and looked at Lu An with her beautiful eyes. Although there was still disappointment in her eyes, it was obviously much less than before.
"The Divine Master's position will be decided by the Divine Master and Divine Empress." Lu An stroked Yao's long hair and said, "Let's not let these things occupy our minds too much. Instead, we have to focus on cultivating. These are all illusory things. Only strength is true power. "
"Alright." Yao nodded and said softly, "I'm fine."
Lu An smiled and said a few more words to Yao before leaving and heading to the underground world again.
This time, he must find another Rank Nine Mystical Beast and find out what had happened in the underground world!
