Sect - Chapter 29: Variables (1/2)
When the sun came up and Zhu Xianyao awoke, she discovered that Su Chen was no longer by her side
She got out of bed and washed up, just so happening to run into Su Chen on his way back
He seemed as if he was quite travel-worn, but in his hand he held an oiled parchment pouch
When he saw Zhu Xianyao, Su Chen said, “You woke up a bit earlier than I expected, but thankfully I ed to make it back in time Here, for you”
He handed over the oiled parchment pouch in his hand to Zhu Xianyao
Zhu Xianyao opened it and glanced inside, then cried out in surprise, “Falling Horse Alley’s Thousand-Layer Pastry and egg pancakes? How did you know I like to eat those things?”
“Of course I asked your subordinates What would be the point in having a mouth otherwise?” Su Chen chuckled
Zhu Xianyao’s face sank slightly “The Falling Horse Alley is under the Rong Clan’s control You went there again?”
Zhu Xianyao appeared to be unhappy, but her words were filled with concern and care
“Oh, I just happened to be passing by,” Su Chen carelessly replied
“Passing by?” Zhu Xianyao was stunned “So then where did you go exactly?”
“Of course to the Rong Clan,” Su Chen replied matter-of-factly
“What!?” Zhu Xianyao was badly startled
Are you crazy?
She instinctively asked, “What were you doing at the Rong Clan?”
“I went to go investigate why exactly they would pick a fight with you”
Su Chen walked over and embraced Zhu Xianyao “You know that I have the ability to caulped “But you cannot deceive a Spirit Burning Realm cultivator”
Once a person’s cultivation base reached the Spirit Burning Realm and opened Divine Palaces within their bodies, their consciousness poould surge, and their perception would increase as a result As long as they possessed any detection skills, it was very hard to pull the wool over their eyes After all, huers
“That’s why I went a bit early, right before sunrise That’s when Yin and Yang are exchanging places Spirit Burning Realht Manifestation Realm cultivators must receive the Heavenly Te this ti else,” Su Chen chuckled
“It’s still very dangerous!” Zhu Xianyao said as she clenched her fists anxiously
This was the difference between the way Zhu Xianyao and Su Chen saw things To Zhu Xianyao, infiltrating the Rong Clan was incredibly risky, and Su Chen could have died if even the slightest detail rong To Su Chen, however, this kind of risk was nothing After all, he had gone through soClan was really nothing to write ho Clan was strong enough to easily destroy five Su Chen’s at once - at least, at this point in tihly evaluate their ability to handle risk and danger after obtaining good benefits following a high-pressure situation The benefit of this attitude was that the person becah-pressure situations, but the drawback was that they would begin to underesti certain actions This was exactly howtheir boat in a narrow strait
However, this was a necessary attitude to have Otherwise, how could you accoreat?
Even if I flip my boat, you are still merely a narrow strait, and I still despise you
However, Su Chen very much enjoyed Zhu Xianyao’s concern and worry for hirabbed Zhu Xianyao’s hand “The Moonstones have almost been completelymore, but Su Chen’s words co of “What?”
Su Chen replied, “The Rong Clan’s Moonstone Mine has almost been depleted They must find a new mine, or else it will be very difficult for them to sustain themselves”
Zhu Xianyao said, “But there haven’t been any new veins of ore discovered recently”
“That’s why they ht you one way or another, and your bloodlines are growing stronger, they would rather not delay”
“But didn’t you say that they could still survive if they moved locations, and that they didn’t necessarily need to start a large-scale war?”
“It seehed
Zhu Xianyao covered herlike this
She enjoyed seeing Su Chen like this As a wo in control, she particularly enjoyed seeing h - even if that man was her lover
Perhaps this was also because the impression Su Chen had left on her was too deep Whenever she saw Su Chen frowning like this, she felt a irl” Su Chen pinched her cheeks “If you don’t eat, the food is going to get cold”
Zhu Xianyao happily sat down and began to eat
“Right, the Rong Clan should have kept this infore to find out about it?”
Su Chen replied, “I disguised h their s in the ?” Zhu Xianyao was startled
“I read pretty fast,” Su Chen laughed
His consciousness poas higher than two thousand units, and he possessed the consciousness crystal As such, his ability to read and retain information was extraordinary
“What else is there?” Zhu Xianyao asked
Su Chen replied, “They invited the Qian Clan”
Zhu Xianyao’s expression changed drastically “The White Deer Qian Clan?”
Like the Zhu and Rong Clans, the White Deer Qian Clan also possessed a Demonic Emperor Bloodline They were based in Yunnan City and weren’t weaker than the Zhu Clan in the slightest
If the Qian Clan were to ally with the Rong Clan to deal with the Zhu Clan, the Zhu Clan was doomed This was perhaps the main reason why they hadn’t unleashed an all-out attack yet
