Chapter 789: Chapter 789: The Battle Situation in the Jade Cauldron Kingdom

Elder Qing looked at Lin Chen indifferently, as if she had already seen through Lin Chen’s situation.

Elder Qing’s words were not without reason, since Lin Chen and Liu Qingxia had that kind of relationship, Divine Flame Sect naturally became a part of Lin Chen.

However, Elder Qing did not know that Lin Chen was forcefully taken into the mountain forests by Liu Qingxia.

"It’s quite normal for a man to have three wives and multiple concubines," she said.

"Son-in-law, you just relax, I’ll deal with Weilian’s mindset," she said.

"If I’m not mistaken, Sect Master should be your first woman, and later Weilian will become your concubine," Elder Qing said, looking at Lin Chen seriously.

After hearing this, Lin Chen was somewhat speechless. This old lady really had an open mind, and her words were indeed shocking.

However, since Elder Qing had promised to work on Yu Weilian’s mindset, Lin Chen no longer had to worry.

In the end, after negotiating, Lin Chen agreed to take care of Divine Flame Sect, but only if Elder Qing assured him that no third party would learn of this matter.

After the discussion, Lin Chen left Divine Flame Sect and prepared to return to the Formation Sect camp.

But just as he stepped out the door, he discovered Yu Weilian was outside. At that moment, she was looking at him with a mysterious expression, as if trying to peer into Lin Chen’s soul, wanting to know what he and Elder Qing had discussed secretly, why without her.

"Brother Lin Chen, come clean, what did you and my master discuss?" Yu Weilian blocked Lin Chen’s path, insisting on an answer.

Lin Chen was at wits’ end and, after much persuasion, invoking Elder Qing’s name, he finally got Yu Weilian to shut up, then he beat a hasty retreat back to the Formation Sect camp.

Once back at the camp, Lin Chen began directing the army of 170,000, using the terrain of the Endless Sky Mountain Range to establish a Killing Formation barrier, first turning the area around Divine Flame Sect into an impregnable fortress, impenetrable by the Red Soul Hall army.

Meanwhile, as Lin Chen commanded the large army to establish Killing Formation defenses, the Jade Cauldron Kingdom army outside Cloud Sky City was engaged in fierce battle with the Red Soul Hall army.

"These guys from Red Soul Hall seem to have noticed the strength of our Cloud Sky City, sending stronger and stronger armies each time," said a Jade Cauldron Kingdom general cleaning up the battlefield, somewhat worriedly.

At first, the armies sent by Red Soul Hall were not very strong and were easily defeated by Jade Cauldron Kingdom. However, Red Soul Hall did not give up, increasingly sending larger and stronger forces.

Despite this, the Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army was still able to effortlessly defeat Red Soul Hall’s forces, whether a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand troops, Jade Cauldron Kingdom could handle them with ease.

If the Red Soul Hall army was too strong, the Battle Eagle Squad would lead them out of the city, using the city’s Killing Formations to defeat them.

Over the course of a month, Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army had nearly annihilated two million troops from Red Soul Hall. This was a colossal loss for Red Soul Hall.

Due to Red Soul Hall’s offensives, Jade Cauldron Kingdom took the opportunity to annex Frost Chill Kingdom, while the Dark Division also gained control over Zhangyang Country and Zhenning Country, though the soldiers of these two countries were unbeknownst.

Soon, these two countries would also become part of Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s influence.

Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division returned to Cloud Sky City and, knowing that Jade Cauldron Kingdom had taken control of three cities, was pleased, immediately praising them, proud that these were the men he had trained.

Afterward, Lin Chen, in consultation with his generals’ plans, made some adjustments. The strategy was to infiltrate and control Zhangyang Country and Zhenning Country, but Lin Chen’s goals did not stop there; he planned a surprise attack on Red Soul Hall’s Vassal States’ underbelly.

With Red Soul Hall taking the initiative to attack, their Vassal States must have shifted a significant amount of their military strength away. Lin Chen believed that a surprise attack on the Vassal States of Red Soul Hall would allow them to be easily defeated.

Thus, Lin Chen ordered his army to act according to this plan. As Lin Chen had predicted, Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s forces found the Vassal States in Red Soul Hall’s underbelly virtually deserted, with less than a tenth of their troops remaining.

The Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army easily overcame these remaining forces and took the cities.

However, Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s forces did not occupy those cities.

For once they seized Red Soul Hall’s Vassal States, Red Soul Hall would definitely know it was Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s doing, making it impossible to hold the cities. With Red Soul Hall’s immense power, they would not give up easily and were bound to send a large army back to recapture the cities.

It is important to note that Red Soul Hall had an extremely vast influence, with over a hundred First Class Vassal States, each with armies of nearly a million. If Jade Cauldron Kingdom provoked Red Soul Hall, it would face an onslaught from tens of millions of soldiers, which Jade Cauldron Kingdom could not withstand.

Although those armies could not be redeployed immediately, Lin Chen dared not lightly provoke Red Soul Hall, at least not for the time being.
