Chapter 170: Tenacity
While Li Wuyi was still discussing thiswas carrying out assassinations left and right
Actually, Su Chen had never really cared s, but he had no choice
He needed to give hi in Sky City
If he wanted to protect Zhu Xianyao, Su Chen needed to reht would hold onto hope until the huht that he had no choice but to let Zhu Xianyao go
On the other hand, it would cause Eternal Night to grow suspicious if Su Chen reed to escape from Kelesda’s detection
As such, he needed to remain active
Even if his actions were a bit suicidal, he needed to de here
Robbing people had beco people was an acceptable alternative
Golden Blaze’s casual coh reason toPrison’s warden, Divine Feather Weave was a huge shock
They couldn’t get in contact with hi himself hidden, he had actually co to accoe?
Did he know that the Zhu Clan was already in their hands or not?
All of the high-status Harpies could only wonder, but no ht about it, they never came to an answer
The main issue noas that their opponent’s bloodthirst see days, he had actually assassinated twoHarpies and looting strategic locations were different in nature
The Harpies could set up spatial lockdown forically i Phantoh-status Harpies could carry a spatial lockdown for one of their major weaknesses
Su Chen hadn’t done so earlier because it wouldn’t benefit him at all It was only natural that he had had no interest at that point in time
But now, these assassinations would serve a purpose, and it appeared that he was really getting into it
In the span of just ten or so days, around eight high-ranking Harpies had been murdered Sky City was in turmoil as a result, since the Harpies had finally discovered that, despite the fact that they had uised hued to infiltrate their ranks, and there seeainst him
Of course, that didn’t mean they were completely at his mercy
News about the Zhu Clan’s arrival reached Su Chen’s ears again and again, but Su Chen ignored them and didn’t ask about theet into contact with thereat headache
If their opponent et in contact with the Zhu Clan, there was no way they could anticipate what he was thinking, and the second half of the plan was basically iht process was very thorough, but Halcyon Wing Streak’s actionsperson for the first ti deal, but the problem was that this would create problems down the road
Just as the coone unnoticed by the hu couldn’t escape the attention of the Harpies either, especially if they were never planning on keeping it a secret in the first place
Within the Perpetual Daylight Castle
Eternal Night sat on his throne, listening to his subordinates discuss and debate
“News of our battle with the Thousand Poisons Toad has already spread The hu out for war Li Wuyi has already ordered wang Rang into the palace three tis, and it appears that Li Ruyun has also received orders The soldiers guarding the Auspicious Dragon border are one to the capital and is currently activating his connections to convince the other nobles to mobilize Zhu Xianyao appears to be the primary excuse for this”
“We’ve heard rumors that Li Wuyi has contacted Empty Mountain and Water Sheen It appears that he will be allying with the two of theth”
“News has co Streak was one of the hostages that Li Wuyi had agreed to release in an exchange for the purposes of disrupting our society”
Report after report cain to feel a headache co on
Empty Mountain and Water Sheen were the two countries under the least pressure because they were behind the front lines of the four countries As such, they were also the most likely to th, the Harpies would have no way of resisting Of course, they could hole up in Sky City and defend themselves However, they would lose a lot of the territory outside of Sky City, which was also impossible for them to accept And once they lost the steady strea in from the outskirts of Harpy territory, Sky City’s production alone would have a difficult ti up with the rate of consuest defense would eventually collapse without any ability to mount an offense
This was also why the Harpies placed soPoints plan
Sky City was powerful, but it was surrounded on all sides by enemies because it had been constructed in theto other races
“Your Majesty, the most important item currently is to send a diplomatic envoy to Liaoye Country and convince them not to mobilize their troops” one of the subjects proposed
Eternal Night harruotiate with it?”
All of the iht said, “The only way to deal with a hungry wolf is to fight it off so that it knows this e to take a bite, we need to make it pay a bloody price Send word to the Chaos Tower and the Harpy Star to head for the Origin Light Castle and assuram Formation Prepare for battle”
Of the Harpies' four Floating Points, Eternal Night had chosen to send three of them off in the direction of Liaoye Country His deterth was obvious
However, this decision didn't put anyone at ease Apart from the humans, the Harpies were also enemies with the Beasts and the Oceanids The Oceanids were terrorized by Demonic Beasts in the sea and were in no condition to pose ent Races However, the Beasts the Harpies had to deal ere under Sovereign Inferno's control
Now that Sovereign Inferno's son was captive in Harpy territory, the Beasts were also probably getting ready to spring into action
The Origin Energy Demonic Tower alone could not withstand the Beast invasion
But no one said this aloud Eternal Night was obviously tearing down the eastern wall to rebuild the western one - no matter how the Beasts responded, the humans needed to be dealt with first
”If that's the case, then we have no choice I suppose,” the subjects all agreed
