517: Chapter 74 Pelican (Part 2) 517: Chapter 74 Pelican (Part 2) Chu Guo’s soul lamp is still lit, which means that although there is military chaos in Yuan Province, the life of this Prince has not been affected.
The situation is bad, but not that bad.
“I understand.”
Xie Xuanyi nodded and said, “I will quietly wait within the envoy in the next few days.
I’ll have Iron Eyes slow down a bit.”
“There’s no need for that.”
Chen Jingxuan pondered for a moment, then reminded, “A layer of Iron Curtain covers the skies of Yuan Province.
The Roundness Instrument cannot penetrate the Array Patterns of the Da Li Imperial Family to spy on the destiny beneath this Iron Curtain…
The loss of Chu Guo’s message seems coincidental, but I feel it’s not that simple.
Now that the envoy has entered the Li Kingdom, you must be even more cautious.”
Indeed, as soon as they entered Li Kingdom, Chu Guo’s news was lost.
Too coincidental.
It really is too coincidental.
“Does truly no one else know the secret of Prince Chu Country?
Can the Fire Master be trusted?” Xie Xuanyi was somewhat worried.
“I have divined with the Roundness Instrument on this matter.”
Chen Jingxuan said with a gravely, “For now, no one knows Chu Guo’s identity.
As for the Fire Master, there’s no need to doubt…
he is a reliable person who one can trust with their life.”
“Oh?” Xie Xuanyi raised an eyebrow, this was a very high appraisal.
“In recent years, many of Book Tower’s missions within Li Kingdom have been arranged by the Fire Master.
If he had colluded with the enemy, then Qian San would not have been able to return to Chu Country successfully.”
Chen Jingxuan paused and said, “The matter of Chu Guo is most likely an accident.
If there’s a chance to meet the Fire Master in the future…
you will understand why I trust him so dearly.”
“If you trust him, then I trust him.”
Xie Xuanyi said no more; his trust in Chen Jingxuan was unconditional.
“There’s one more thing.”
Chen Jingxuan smiled and said solemnly, “On this mission, within Yuan Province, you need to be wary of three people.”
“There’s no need to mention Chen Chong and Nalan Xuance.”
Chen Jingxuan said, “Qian San has already told you on the Treasure Ship…
these two have now joined forces, coveting Buddhist lands.
However, due to the presence of the ‘Zen Master’, even if they do have plans, it’s unlikely that these two would personally take action.
Be careful of Chen Chong’s ‘right-hand men,’ and the inheritor of Nalan Xuance’s control string skill.”
A Jade Scroll was thrown out.
Xie Xuanyi caught it and, with a sweep of Divine Thought, slowly read out the names on the scroll: “Meng Kejian, Du Yunzhong, Nalan Qiutong.”
Xie Xuanyi had never heard of the first two.
But there was one that Xie Xuanyi was rather familiar with.
Nalan Qiutong.
At the time of the Heavenly Pride List reveal, this Nalan Qiutong was ranked second, just below himself.
“Meng Kejian and Du Yunzhong were personally cultivated by Chen Chong, possessing extraordinary strength and status.
They usually command the elite Yuzi Camp and Camp Cang, respectively, and are currently quelling chaos in Yuan Province.”
Chen Jingxuan seriously cautioned, “Chen Chong has risen too fast, almost sweeping through, overpowering the generals of Li Kingdom.
Regarding his information, Fangyuan Square has not collected much, and the intelligence support that Book Tower can provide is indeed limited.
Both Meng Kejian and Du Yunzhong are no ordinary individuals; not only are they highly skilled, but each has their strengths—one good at strategy, the other valiant.
If you encounter them…
do not hesitate for a moment, immediately stay away.”
“Are they that formidable?”
Xie Xuanyi narrowed his eyes.
“Both have entered the Yin God Realm, and Chen Chong has kept a low profile for many years; his cavalry are said to be able to take on a hundred foes each.”
Chen Jingxuan spoke solemnly, “Furthermore, Meng Kejian is skilled in talismanic technique.
When the cavalry charges, with an Array Talisman Master supporting from the rear, their power will increase again.
Even a Yin God encountering a ‘Locking Primordial Formation’ may be exhausted to death by the relentless cavalry.
How many Yin Gods can withstand the endless consumption of Primordial Energy?
The cavalry charge heedless of casualties, waiting for the enemy to reveal a flaw, and then it’s a blow to defeat the opponent.”
This point was indeed no exaggeration.
Both Chu Country and Li Kingdom had precedents of such cases.
Yin Gods are indeed formidable.
Mastering a complete Tao Realm, even without manifesting a dharma, one can use Qi Control to easily slaughter a city.
But if they really encounter a well-prepared Array Pattern Master with a large number of cavalry deploying a Locking Primordial Formation to suppress an area of the world…
it becomes a “tragic battle” with a foregone conclusion.
How many Yin Gods can withstand the endless consumption of Primordial Energy?
Cavalry charging, not caring about casualties, until the opponent shows a flaw, and then it’s a move to defeat the enemy.
This is the situation that Great Practitioners fear the most.
In a sense, in the past, Lian Venerate died because of such a scheme by the Demon Race.
“I’ll be careful.”
Xie Xuanyi took everything Chen Jingxuan said to heart and then asked, “Two Yin Gods, indeed worthy of attention under Chen Chong’s command…
but Nalan Qiutong, just a junior, also requires your significant warning?”
“The control string skill of Xuanwei Island is unparalleled in the world.”
Chen Jingxuan said, “Nalan Xuance hardly ever appears to fight, Fangyuan Square has no records of his battles.
But as far as I know, the techniques of Xuanwei Island are diametrically opposite to those of Wangyou Island; they don’t focus much on physical cultivation, primarily relying on Mechanical Techniques to strengthen themselves.
It looks like a side path, but the combat power is strong, especially below the Yang God Realm, Mechanical Techniques are shockingly powerful.
Because the techniques are uncommon, once engaged in battle, they tend to catch people off guard.”
“According to Fangyuan Square’s intelligence, this Nalan Qiutong has long ago reached Perfect Cave Heaven, and he’s probably even perfected his Tao Rules.”
“This time’s list reveal placed him below you, which must have caused dissatisfaction.”
Chen Jingxuan said, “You need to be cautious of him seeking troubles with you.”
That’s all that needs to be said.
This meeting.
Mainly to inform Xie Xuanyi of the changes in Yuan Province, as well as to pass on intelligence.
Chen Jingxuan arranged the rest of the detailed information into another Jade Scroll, handed it over, and then the mist slowly dispersed and faded away.
