Book 7, Chapter 20: Initiative (1)
This droplet of blood continued to glow faintly on top of the cauldron, resiliently hanging on
Even so, it was beginning to run out of steam
The squabble with the dey,else
Well, at least he had taken care of the most important matter
The blood slowly but surely dissipated away, eventually leaving behind nothingon the cauldron
This seal was incredibly sle blotted droplet of blood In such a busy environment, no one would ever notice it unless they were specifically searching for it Butbeacon
A spatial marker of sorts
Once the clone had taken care of this ain returned to its former smooth operations
Sky City was still locked in a battle with the De
Within the Boundless Sect
“Whew!”
Su Chen let out a long sigh andhis will over such a long distance had expended quite a bit of his energy
“Master?” Iron Cliff could tell that Su Chen’s face was slightly wan and couldn’t help but inquire
“I’-distance consciousness journey That being said” Su Chen chuckled as he then relayed his discovery to Iron Cliff
Upon hearing what Su Chen had done, Iron Cliff let out a wry chuckle “So you’re saying that, as soon as our battle with the Harpies begins, that you’ll be able to directly infiltrate their core and wreak havoc upon their ht,” Su Chen said as he stretched out lazily “This is all thanks to Le Feng finding an opportunity to send my blood inside”
Iron Cliff i over us We will definitely come out victorious in this duel!”
Su Chen chuckled “We got lucky because they were preoccupied with a battle Now that you mention it, our De their ht?”
“We haven’t discovered the presence of any Demonic Beasts ahead, but we haven’t seen theine that a storht had i Su Chen for so many years
“Mmm,” Su Chen indistinctlyand said, “Iron Cliff, do you think that the Harpies have some kind of secret tactic of their own that will allow thee fight?”
Iron Cliff replied without hesitation, “Of course No one would possibly let such an opportunity go to waste However, Deputy Sect Master has already assigned talented individuals to closely supervise those Harpy observers
Su Chen shook his head “Weren’t the Harpies keeping an eye on Le Feng as well? However, he nonetheless still ed to find an opportunity to send a drop of my blood into Sky City’s core He succeeded most likely because the Harpies aren’t that familiar with my Blood Clones, and none of them would ever expect that I would be able to control a clone from so far away”
Iron Cliff was ”
Su Chen calmly said, “All of the defenses that we’ve prepared are only effective against the tactics that we are already aware of However, do you think that we know every single trick the Harpies have up their sleeves? If we don’t knohat they’re going to do, then we can’t defend against it either For instance, hoould you or I knohether or not they had bugged this rooin For to us as we speak?”
Iron Cliff was taken aback by this possibility
Su Chen suddenly su into his hand
Whoosh!+
The bolt of lightning swept through every nook and cranny of the roo it
If there were any such in Formations planted in the room, then they would definitely have been destroyed by the sweep of lightning
Iron Cliff rubbed his head “We should be safe now”
Su Chen, however, shook his head slowly “This place ht now, but what about everywhere else? And how long will this place even be secure for? As long as those Harpy observers are still breathing, they will be able to come up ays to harm and spy on us whenever they please”
Iron Cliff was startled “Master, you’re not thinking of killing them, are you?”
Su Chen shook his head “Of course not Not only would that affectand the others in danger”
Iron Cliff let out a sigh of relief when he heard this
“But i them is not an ih i the Harpy observers would definitely affect his reputation negatively, it was unlikely to directly cause Le Feng and the other human observers to die as a result
A moment later, however, Su Chen rejected that idea as well “If I do that, then Eternal Night will probably refuse to fight me at Skywild Plains”
This duel at Skywild Plains had originally been Su Chen’s proposal, and he would naturally not let all of his preparations go to waste These ten Harpy observers, however, were indeed a thorn in Su Chen’s side
Iron Cliff understood what Su Chen was thinking and suggested, “Why don’t we assign some more people to keep an eye on them?”
Su Chen shook his head “I already said that our ainst techniques that we don’t understand or know about Do you think that Le Feng’s act of slipping a droplet of in Stone would not have happened if they had sined more Harpies to supervise him?”
Iron Cliff fell silent
