Space quivered.Black qi flowed around them as they silently appeared in the Devil Slaying Battlefield.
Long Chen, when did you prepare for this? Qu Liushang asked in surprise.
Upon seeing Long Chens odd expression, Qu Liushang instantly realized something.
This preparation had likely been intended for a worst-case scenarioa complete falling-out with the Starry River Palace. Long Chen had been ready to flee with the Starry River Legion at any moment.
Because of his connection to the Heavenly River Silk, Long Chen sensed that it would not attack him. But if Li Canghao had chosen to protect Li Wanci, a catastrophic battle would have followed. Thus, Long Chen had prepared an escape route.
Since we have the Heavenly River Silk, why arent we using it? Li Canghao asked, frowning. Your spatial formations were extremely unstable. I thought space would collapse several times.
Long Chen took out another transportation formation and activated it.
He replied, Because the Heavenly River Silks spatial transport causes intense spatial fluctuations. The outsider devils would sense it immediately. Youve fought them for so many years. Do you really think they dont have counters prepared for you? Dont be so brainless when you speak.
The last sentence was clearly extraneous.
You little Li Canghao almost cursed Long Chen.
Master, this is the Devil Slaying Battlefield. Calm down for now. Long Chen is the one in command, so we should listen to him. Let us just watch, Qu Liushang interjected.
He hastily grabbed his master, afraid that the latters aura would leak from his anger.
Just then, the formation disc quivered, and a slender figure appeared.
It was Xue Ying.
Li Canghaos pupils shrank when he saw her. Xue Yings aura could perhaps trick others, but not him.
However, he didnt say anything. He did just as Qu Liushang advised, just watching for now.
Lord Long Chen, Xue Ying greeted as she bowed.
Is everything done? asked Long Chen.
Yes, I have placed the five-point star throughout the Black Wall according to your instructions, reported Xue Ying.
On that day, before Long Chen sent Qu Yingying and the others back, he had given Xue Ying a secret missionsetting up transportation formations around the Black Wall.
In truth, at that time, Long Chen hadnt completely decided what he was going to do. But Zhi Zhi had been coveting the mysterious vine within the Black Wall, and Long Chen knew it would greatly benefit Zhi Zhi.
Because Xue Ying had been occupied with this mission, she had not participated in the battle against Li Wanci. Otherwise, Li Wancis trap would not have succeeded.
Xue Ying was truly efficient. She had set up those five transportation formations without anyone being the wiser. She then checked multiple times to confirm that she hadnt drawn any attention.
Xue Ying, lead everyone to the transportation nodes. You are the most familiar with this place, said Long Chen.
Long Chen split up their troops.
The Starry River Legion was split into three groups and sent to three of those spatial nodes. Qu Yingying, Qin Yu, and Xue Ying were all in one group.
Qu Liushang and the four half-step acquired Divine Sovereigns were sent to one spatial node.
The final node was assigned to Long Chen and Li Canghao.
The Black Wall was a massive dome. The five groups formed a five-point star within a circle, evenly distributed along the walls perimeter.
After all, the Starry River Legion was too large for large-scale transport. The commotion would immediately alert the enemy.
As they moved, Li Canghaos mouth twitched several times, but Long Chen pretended not to see this.
Finally, Li Canghao couldnt help but say, That girl
Shes from Xiao Yins side, Long Chen responded directly.
And?
Li Canghao stared at Long Chen.
What else is there to say? Long Chen said. Use whatever brains you have. It should be obvious.
I Li Canghao nearly fainted from rage. How could someone be this infuriating?
At this moment, Qu Liushang had yet to use his transportation formation, but he no longer bothered to interfere. He distanced himself and pretended not to hear them.
In any case, they were now in the heart of the Devil Slaying Battlefield. Qu Liushang didnt believe the two of them would actually come to blows.
Tell me, why are you so impolite? Do you talk like this to everyone? demanded Li Canghao.
Li Canghao had never met such a hateful brat, but he had been waiting for this brat.
Nope! Long Chen replied.
So you speak like this to me on purpose?
Correct!
Why?!
Why? Just because you indirectly caused the death of Big Sister Qing Yi.
What does that have to do with me?! I was in seclusion! Plus, I was acting on the will of my ancestors. Ive been waiting for you the whole time! What did I do wrong?! raged Li Canghao.
Hahaha!
What are you laughing at?! This is the truth!
You were waiting for me? By doing absolutely nothing, you were waiting for me? Lets say I am the one you are waiting for. Did you prepare anything for my arrival? Long Chen demanded, his tone disdainful.
Well
Let me put it this way, Long Chen said. You were starving and have been waiting for a chef to appear. But you prepared no rice, no firewood, and no utensils. You didnt even set the table. And yet you shamelessly demand that I feed you?
After a brief pause, Long Chen continued, Tell me, if the Starry River Palace is to rise again, what are the fastest directions to develop in? Of the surrounding enemies, which is richest and which has what we need the most? Tell me, as someone who has gone to the Devil Slaying Battlefield, how much do you know about the world in the Black Wall?
Thats
Li Canghao couldnt answer.
He had spent these years cultivating, but that was no excuse. As the palace master, ignoring the palaces affairs for personal cultivation was a dereliction of duty.
Lets say I gather the firewood, rice, and seasonings. Are you telling me I also have to bring the pots and plates? Should I spoon-feed you as well? Long Chen asked.
Li Canghaos face flushed crimson, but he couldnt say anything because what Long Chen had said was true. During these years, he had just been waiting and not preparing anything.
I bear the greatest responsibility here, Qu Liushang said bitterly. Long Chen, if youre angry, blame me.
He truly was at fault.
While Li Canghao cultivated in seclusion, he had entrusted everything to Qu Liushang. Li Wanci had roamed freely outside the palace, and Qu Liushang had been the one overseeing its daily affairs.
Seeing his master rendered speechless filled Qu Liushang with shame as well. Neither of them was suited to be a leader.
Since Qu Liushang had said this, Long Chen no longer pressed the matter. His eyes reddened slightly.
Long Chen said, I bear the greatest blame for Big Sister Qing Yis death. I was too naive and underestimated Li Wancis greed and foolishness. That mistake cost Big Sister Qing Yi her life.
Her greatest wish was to see the disciples of the nine heavens stand tall. That is why I will dedicate this victory to er heroic spirit, so she may rest in peace.
Li Canghao remained silent.
From what he knew, Qing Yi and Long Chen had only met once. Yet, she had chosen death rather than betray Long Chen. And for her sake, Long Chen had dared to stand against the entire Starry River Palace.
Both of them cared deeply about their friendship. It was admirable.
One day later, everyone had reached their set locations.
After Long Chen had taken a deep breath, he shouted, Attack!
