Chapter 1214 - Chapter 1214 Chapter 507 Attack Where the Enemy Must Rescue

Chapter 1214: Chapter 507: Attack Where the Enemy Must Rescue Chapter 1214: Chapter 507: Attack Where the Enemy Must Rescue “Once the fight breaks out, don’t stray too far,”

whispered Du Sha before he proceeded with Yun Xiu to confront the elite warriors of the East Camp.

The leader was none other than Xiang Zhuang of East Camp, born with divine strength and the courage of thousands, a renowned prodigy of the Xiang Family in Fan City who had broken through to the Mortal Realm at the age of fourteen.

Having awakened the Earth Level Six Gentle Wind Bloodline, he became a Fierce Realm powerhouse at thirty-five and established the true essence of martial arts at fifty, invincible to all but grandmasters.

Now at the age of eighty-three, he was a true pinnacle powerhouse of the Fierce Realm, in charge of the East Camp, and one of the Xiang Family’s most relied upon warriors.

Experts usually have some sort of premonition. The moment Du Sha saw Xiang Zhuang, he knew this was a formidable opponent and hurriedly awakened the Black Light Mysterious Cauldron. The cauldron emitted a mist of black qi, forming a mysterious light shield around Yun Xiu, obscuring her from outsiders’ view.

After setting up the protection, Du Sha alone faced the elite warriors of the East Camp, with the battle about to erupt.

“The Palace of Striking Swan is also considered an orthodox sect, so why help the tyranny and engage in these sneaky deeds?”

Xiang Zhuang stood with his hands behind his back in front of Du Sha, “Hand over the conspirator with the Blood Tower, and you can leave on your own. Why muddle in these troubled waters?”

“Entrusted by others, loyal to the task.”

With a face as expressionless as a stone statue, Du Sha seemed as if he never considered Xiang Zhuang and his men a threat.

“In that case, let Xiang here experience the unparalleled secret techniques of the Palace of Striking Swan.”

As if he had already decided on combat, Xiang Zhuang was not surprised by Du Sha’s response at all, and from his sleeves, he threw out an Ah Contain Heart Piercing Awl–a noble and majestic Buddhist artifact yet strangely fierce and deadly.

Although Du Sha had never seen such a divine artifact, he had a vague premonition that trying to transform a Stone Heart Crystal Beast to block would lead to certain defeat under this man’s awl.

This was a prepared ambush, and trouble was likely to follow!

…

After spending a full half-year thinking the design had been abandoned, a turn of events occurred when another Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul unexpectedly returned to the small courtyard in South City after the collapse of Cloud Summit Tower.

This brought great joy to Yanyun Grandmaster. Xiang Ange greatly valued it, and although Xiang Zhuang of East Camp was not sent to intercept the elites, the true highlight was in the small courtyard in South City, where Yanyun Grandmaster personally appeared.

But this action was doomed to be futile, as the other Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul was already on the barren ridges of Nangang, realizing that he had missed his opportunity. Xiang Yan sunk his consciousness into the Divine Artifact, only to discover that the Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul, which should have been in the South City courtyard, had unexpectedly appeared in the very heart of Chaochang!

Fighting can sometimes be like treating an illness; treating the head when there’s a headache and the foot when it’s sore is the method of a quack.

A true healer understands that striking the crucial point is the essence of curing the ailment.

To truly resolve the siege of South City, blindly charging into the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array was untrustworthy because it was filled with warriors, all sharpening their blades, ready for battle.

If I had two hundred thousand Spiritual Power today, I would definitely go in and beat up every visible Xiang Family warrior, but alas, currently I have less than forty thousand, meaning I need to outsmart them, not outfight them.

It was unclear whether it was to demonstrate confidence or to facilitate the transmission of information, but the Xiang Family had arranged for the clan leader and their strategists to gather in the central area of the Xiang Residence’s front courtyard.

The exterior was continuously patrolled by warriors day and night, and inside there were several Martial Ancestors guarding day and night. Such protective forces could potentially block ninety-nine percent of assassination attempts in the world.

However, there are always exceptions to everything. Just as the Xiang Family had never anticipated an assassin who could suddenly appear at the very center of the Xiang Residence, because the array in the strategy chamber had been activated year-round to minimize such incidents.

When Tang Luo quietly appeared at the very center of the front courtyard of the Xiang Residence and contained all his Spiritual Power with the Star Core, he could even clearly hear the commanding and vigorous orders of Xiang Ange from the strategy chamber.

The dozens of different breathing sounds allowed Tang Luo to mentally sketch out a map of the positioning within the test room.

In each of the four corners of the test room, a mighty figure above the Fierce Realm sat in meditation, their senses and souls stretched to their limits. Within the courtyard, no fluctuation of Spiritual Power could escape the perception of these four mighty figures.

He could also hear another mighty figure hidden in the shadows against a wall column in the test room hall, whose breath contained the vast power of thunder, seeming to have thunder roaring in his chest with each breath.

This defense must have seemed flawless, Xiang Ange must have thought so, as a figure from the Fierce Realm himself, he did not require such extensive protection.

With such guards, perhaps even a grandmaster would struggle to cause harm, Xiang Qian and Xiang Yan must have told him this, which was why Xiang Ange was utterly confident. Even without the protection of the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array, he remained as stable as Mount Tai in the strategy room.

“Then, let’s give the young clan leader a lesson, that one must never, ever let their guard down.”

The Void Dual Wheels danced wildly, with nine hundred and ninety-nine Void Stomachs contracting and expanding. The massive amounts of Metal and Earth Innate Qi were collected by Yin-Yang Grinding, Tang Luo, whose aura was fully concealed, was indistinguishable from rocks and vegetation, and his eyes seemed capable of penetrating thick walls, aimed directly at Xiang Ange’s location.

As the clan leader of the Xiang Family, even amidst such busy work, he always paid attention to his demeanor, standing tall and straight like a green pine, giving off an impression of unwavering determination.

Whenever the strategists grew weary from work, just lifting their heads to see the ceaselessly writing, upright figure brought them exceptional comfort.

This was likely what was meant by ‘stabilizing pillar of the sea’–a person like the clan leader.

Anyone from the clan who had seen Xiang Ange handling affairs tirelessly for days on end would naturally feel such emotions.

Just like the current Chaochang, where East City was a mess. Continual efforts were needed to oversee reconstruction, resettle refugees, and communicate with dissatisfied noble families;

The civilians who had been harmed during the riots needed proper appeasement to curb their spitefulness.

In just one year, Chaochang, having faced numerous disturbances, had lost its credibility, and many noble families showed signs of leaving. After all, they had chosen Chaochang because it was the most peaceful city in Longzhou, where even with little military force, one could reap massive commercial benefits.

If these families left, it would be a great loss for Chaochang. Thus, the Xiang Family was also responsible for sending people to persuade them, to help rebuild their confidence, and to keep the other noble families eyeing Chaochang greedily at bay.

Only a strategist who had truly managed a city could understand such complex situations and heavy burdens–what it means to wear the crown one must bear its weight.

Leading a city was not as glamorous as it appeared on the surface, for all the heavy responsibilities rested on the shoulders of Clan Leader Xiang Ange alone.

And the strategists of the Xiang Family had reasons to believe that Chaochang could be without the sun, but not without their Clan Leader, Lord Xiang Ange!
