Chapter 798.2 [Palace Hall, Suicide Squad, Emergence of Strong Foes]
Outside the Blade Cutting Valley, the three major battle groups were fighting happily.
Another victory.
An easy victory.
It was easier than the battle against the shadow war beasts, and they gained a lot of heaven tiered magic crystals as trophies.
The remaining guardian war beasts all fled back to the Blade Cutting Valley with heavy injuries, and of course, it was the war beasts of the two Central Palace Hall Elders who led them back, in terms of controlling enemies , both of these two Central Palace Hall Elders manifested astonishing abilities… If it wasn’t for Yue Yang’s prior reminder, even an expert at Ling Yun’s level could not tell that this was a led attack either, and they couldn’t even identify which war beasts were controlled by the Central Palace Hall Elders.
Knowing that there was a tiger in the mountain, the crowd naturally wouldn’t march to the mountain with the tiger again.
Some Heaven Realm warriors who had the desire to act, feigned to fly tentatively to the entrance of the Blade Cutting Valley, hovered for a while, and then retreated to show signs of fake caution.
Many of the warriors of the three major battle groups were joyful despite their injuries. Some of the luckier ones had even managed to break through in this battle, such as Xue Tan Lang and Prince Tian Luo. Fighting against these war beasts with unique physiques had been very beneficial to them, seeing countless Heaven Realm experts showcase their skills in battle, the insights they gained were indescribable, how could one normally have the opportunity to see so many powerful Heaven Rank experts, each displaying their prowess in front of them? Plus, with Yue Yang by their side, more or less secretly enlightening and guiding them, it was simply impossible for them not to make a breakthrough.
Fatty Hai and Ye Kong and the others were also at the brink of a breakthrough, but had not been able to grasp the relevant enlightenment yet.
Their current state was like a prologue before their actual breakthrough.
“You guys stay here, those who are interested can come with me for some fun.” After some deliberation, Yue Yang felt that if he didn’t enter the Blade Cutting Valley, the two Central Palace Hall Elders lying in ambush wouldn’t come out, so he made a decision to bring Fatty Hai and the others back to Rain Valley again to see if they could spring a surprise attack at the Central Palace Hall troops that had entered Rain Valley.
“Okay!” Lord Ling Yun, Tu Hai and the others had waited for this opportunity for too long.
Not to mention them, even the leaders of the three major battle groups, Eight Desolations, Snow Plain and Battle Song wanted to show off their battle prowess in front of Yue Yang….
The three leaders that decided to stay behind after some discussion looked towards Yue Yang with a bit of doubt, “Third Young Master, in case they storm out from the Blade Cutting Valley to attack us. I’m afraid we can’t resist them!”
Yue Yang was amused by their concerns and waved his hand, “Don’t worry, the more we stay put, the less they will dare to come out, because they are also worried that we have set an ambush for them! You are to feign ignorance that you already know there are people lying in ambush inside and pretend that you only have suspicions, occasionally you can send some war beasts in to explore the way, acting cautious. As for you two leaders, every once in a while, you should meet to discuss and act as if you’re plotting. Believe me, no fool would abandon the absolutely superior terrain inside and run out to forcefully attack you! But keep in mind that the longer you guys stay out here, the angrier they’ll get, and in time it might be possible they will choose to storm out and attack you!”
Not counting Fatty Hai and the others, there were eleven leaders with at least Heaven Rank 5 strength, including Lord Ling Yun and Tu Hai, who decided to return to Rain Valley together with Yue Yang and attack the Central Palace Hall’s army by surprise.
These actions were the kind of thing that could easily lead to the extermination of the entire family if it was spread out.
But if they could do it covertly, no one would know, there was no way for the dead to speak… On the surface, the lords were all Heaven Rankers of excellent character, but underneath, everyone knew that the road to become a lord was a path that was strewn with bloodshed and bodies! As lords, many of them had also killed people from the Central Palace Hall, but this was the first time a large-scale attack like today’s had happened.
The crazy plan they were about to attempt made their heartbeats race.
Yue Yang swept past them one by one, and one by one, they took off any relevant clothing and accessories on their bodies and disguised themselves as another person.
Many of them possessed Transformation War Beasts and directly changed their looks, while others used Transformation Gems or skills, and then there were the ones who were not good enough and like Yue Yang, opted to wear a mask and not let others see their true faces.
Another thing that they took the effort to conceal was their war beasts, they couldn’t use their Guardian Beasts or any special war beasts they were well-known for. In the unlikely event that anyone escaped, the Central Palace Hall would surely exterminate their entire clan. Except for the powerful Empress Fei Wen Li, no one in the Heaven Realm had dared to openly challenge the Central Palace Hall, and similarly no one had been able to shake their position yet, so everything had to be done in the dark.
“I’m number 1, Lord Ling Yun you are number 2, City Lord Tu Hai you are number 3, and so on, you all have a code name of your own.” Yue Yang explained the plan once more in a secret language, then took the eleven people and drifted away.
Fatty Hai and the others hurriedly entered Xue Tan Lang’s Grimoire World.
Led by him, they would see if there was a suitable opportunity for them.
Of course, they wouldn’t have any impact in a battle amongst the strong, with their current strength, it would be good as long as they could participate in the battle! The ideal battle conditions for them was for the enemy to be routed and when the enemy was almost defeated, they would just come out to join forces to pursue the remnants. Xue Tan Lang put away Fatty Hai and the others into his grimoire and changed his lazy appearance, regaining his fighting spirit and chased after Yue Yang.
Rain Valley, at the entrance.
Numerous Heaven Realm mercenaries died miserably in the Shadow War Beast’s attack, howling in pain.
However, behind these Heaven Realm mercenaries, there were three battle armies brushedly arranged in a straight line, their postures were arranged like straight lines, their eyes cold and ruthless! The soldiers of the three murderous and disciplined armies looked on indifferently at the tragedy unfolding in front of them as they saw thousands of Heaven Realm mercenaries howling to their deaths, they did not even blink their eyes.
All the soldiers of the three armies had at least Heaven Rank 3 strength.
None of the captains had strength less than Heaven Rank 5.
As for the five shadows standing in front of the captains, wearing concealment cloaks, they were even more unfathomable….
“Are you sure that the pirate leader has come in?” The shadow standing in the very middle, his voice colorless with no emotion, asked.
“Yes, Every hundred years, he comes in for a challenge, and this year there will be no exceptions. And my subordinate saw him come in with his own eyes, there will be no mistake in this matter.” The Shadow, who stood on the far left, answered curtly, spitting out his words slowly, letting them sink into the hearts of all who heard him, as if every word he spoke were to be etched on a plate of iron.
“Very well, this year, I will definitely exterminate that pirate leader this time out! The remnants of the Conquering Queen, the remnants of the Tong Tian Tower, all must be wiped out from the Heaven Realm! I don’t care what happened to the Western Heaven Realm afterwards or what the world thinks, the matter of the Three Great Leaders is a matter for the Supreme Palace Lord and the Realm Lord, it has nothing to do with myself! I only know that the Tong Tian Tower will always be the enemy of the Central Palace Hall, and that the Central Palace Hall will not be at peace as long as the Tong Tian Tower exists. If there is the Central Palace Hall, then there will not be a Tong Tian Tower! If we kill the pirate leader this time, I’ll destroy the entire Conquering City and the Tong Tian Tower will be lost. I want to personally sink the Tong Tian Tower into the Dark Realm for eternity…for the honor of the Central Palace Hall, you all shall offer up your lives!”
“The Palace Hall reigns supreme!” The three armies who were decked out in shiny armour and exuding a murderous aura, all raised their armour-plated fists to the air and pounded on the armor covering their heart as a sign of their own determination.
