The plan looked easy but was mainly a psychological attack. It turned out that… Wang Baole, the Sovereign Patriarch, and others seemed to have fallen for the trap. Furthermore, Wang Baole led a team there personally, causing the plan to fall into place extremely perfectly for the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
But to prevent the information from leaking out, He Yunzi took very drastic measures. He didn’t tell anyone from the royal family about his plans and prepared to sacrifice them. Even the other two princes didn’t know about this, thereby enabling the plan to trap Wang Baole to be successfully carried out.
As those thoughts flashed within He Yunzi’s mind, although he didn’t say it, the anticipation and greed in his eyes made Wang Baole vaguely notice the truth as his soul shook.
Killing me is more important than activating the teleportation and enabling the second wave to descend? This doesn’t make sense… unless… The light in Wang Baole’s eyes focused as a large number of thoughts appeared in his mind.
Did they set up this trap specifically for me… Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. As he felt an intense sense of uneasiness, he also tried opening his storage bag. However, he noticed that he couldn’t open his storage bag within this seal-like boundary.
This made Wang Baole feel even more gloomy as he started arranging his thoughts rapidly. In the end, he had two guesses.
One reason… might be that they predicted this beforehand or prepared sufficiently with the aim of making me fail in my mission and to stop me from interfering with their plans. This way, I won’t be able to affect the second teleportation!
Another reason… could be that my existence is affecting the activation of the second teleportation, so they have to kill me first and then activate the teleportation. The first reason doesn’t mean much, but if it’s the second reason…
Wang Baole’s expression was ugly. No matter how quickly he reacted, he was missing some crucial pieces of information and had no way to know the truth. But the fact that he was able to analyze all that just from He Yunzi’s change in expression was enough to show Wang Baole’s mental growth.
As for which guess was the correct one, it was no longer important to Wang Baole. Right now, the most important thing was for Wang Baole to break past the protective layer as fast as possible and leave.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes as the four avatars he created returned and fused back into his body. While the Eternal Star Fire in his body flickered, he tried to take out the Planet realm palm. But the palm was affected as well and seemed to be unable to be successfully taken out. Just then, a sudden sense of danger made Wang Baole’s expression change, and he turned his head violently. When he did that, he immediately saw a blurry silhouette seemingly walking out from the void behind the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s left-hand elder.
And when he saw that silhouette clearly, Wang Baole couldn’t help but have a huge change in expression.
“You…”
“Little b*stard, we meet again!” When Wang Baole’s expression changed, the silhouette’s body rapidly gathered as it walked out of the void. The person had a head of long hair that reached his shoulders, and he was wearing a rainbow-colored robe. He looked like a middle-aged man, but the sense of aging on him made one feel that he was quite old.
That was especially so when his Planet realm cultivation exploded forth and caused the surroundings to rumble. Although this place was already considered to be in the boundaries of the Eternal Star, the person’s cultivation still formed a suppression in a large area when it was spread out.
He was… the one who fought with Wang Baole briefly at the Violet Gold New Dao Sect and the one who was scared away by Wang Baole’s self-destructing Dharmic Battleships…. the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder.
The right-hand elder’s appearance there wouldn’t have made Wang Baole’s expression change so drastically originally. However… the avatar that he left at the battlefield outside the Eternal Star, where the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect and Violet Gold New Dao Sect were fighting against the Heavenly Spirit Sect, could clearly see the main battlefield. And there, on the main battlefield, beside the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s sect lord, the Planet realm cultivator clashing with the New Dao Patriarch was also the right-hand elder!
In that sense, the person in front of Wang Baole was in two different places at once!
