Chapter 841 (2/2)
Lan Jue’s heart began to quicken It wasn’t the first tiht had crossed his ed they was locked in Ultus’ memory, and if they could recover the weapon it could be used to destroy the aliens
The Banishi+ng Strategy – one of the htiest denizens of the immortal realm would flee before it in terror
“I understand But getting to the surface of the alien planets is all but impossible We won’t be able to approach unnoticed”
Lan Qing explained his thought process “Have you noticed that the aliens are very interested in the elite of huel, the victiher class citizens Put another way, the more unique you are the better your chances of survival This is due to their interest in our genetic code In theory, then, if we give the aliens and opportunity to capture a Paragon alive, I believe there is a sixty percent chance they’ll take it Once captured they would have to take the Paragon to one of the home worlds”
Lan Jue follohere his brother was going “So you want ht?”
Lan Qing nodded “And that’s where this erous There’s a forty percent chance you’ll be killed froth and find Ultus in hostile territory Once you find it, you then have to flee with the Godblade and make it back to us”
“I’ve thought about this for a long tiht back the inforinally I had decided against it, but after seeing how quickly you’ve grown it has proven how ether and the Banishi+ng Strategy laid out against our eneood shot at victory”
“You and Qianlin would begin joined You will be captured, chained, maybe even sealed However Qianlin’s powers should be capable of restoring you to full strength as quickly as possible From there you can proceed with the rest of your mission I believe you are the only person who can do this No one else can get in and recover that weapon, and I can’t ask any of the others even if they could It’s just a rough thought, so I’ll need you to tell me if you think it’s possible”
A wry grin spread across Lan Jue’s face “Are you really uessing the chance of success doesn’t even break thirty percent”
Lan Qing was typically indifferent to his teasing “Hu at no more than ten percent, but we have to try That’s ten percent chance of winning in a direct confrontation against the alien horde If you’re telling ether froles But the bulk of it will rest on your shoulders”
He paused for aLan Jue with fervent eyes “A-Jue, in all the universe you’reyou to head out to your death If you sacrifice yourself, then I want you to know that no matter the result of this war I will accompany you to the other side”
Lan Qing said it cal said it, he meant it

Qianlin was cautious, carefully searching the area with her protogenia To her surprise this cavern seeht she could sense as happening outside
This had to be the interior of Monarch, she surht – or at least she hoped – that the alien ruler was too busy with its evolution to notice their presence
This whole plan was rife with danger and uncertainty Luck would have to be on their side if they wanted a chance at success
At least so far, luck seemed to favor them
She supported Lan Jue’s body as it lay prostrate As she prepared, she pondered the possibility of death Her deliverance Discipline prepared her for this, and if her death meant that others would live she was happy with the result Of course, so long as she and Lan Jue were together
As for the Phar approached her hi to participate in the ot these weapons, whatever the cost Even if they weren’t able to e the Banishi+ng Blades together would boost their strength
Only Lan Qing, Lan Jue, Qianlin, the Pharmacist, and Jue Di knew this plan in its entirety Even the likes of Luo Xianni weren’t privy to all the details As far as she knew Lan Jue was just going for a scouting sortie
Sending the scouting data back was actually Lan Jue sending his brother a signal He was ready for the Prince and Princess Lan Qing and his soldiers were ready to begin the final engagement
Lan Qing’s part of the plan was simple He had to keep the enemy busy, so that they didn’t have time to ‘experi had the foresight to plan for this If not, Lan Jue may very well have been subjected to the depraved desires of the Violet Princess Qianlin would have been powerless to stop it
Both Lan Jue and the Pharmacist, in order to trick the aliens into a false sense of security, did not hide their weapons They also had to fight as hard as they could and subject themselves to unconsciousness in order to sell the ruse Otherwise, hoould they trick two creatures with Infinite power?
With no danger evident, Qianlin set about her work She placed her hands against Lan Jue’s chest and channeled the light of Guanyin through him She constrained the Queen of Heaven powers so that they ree in order to avoid detection
As she directed her consciousness into hiy, she ran into a problem
