Chapter 399: Chapter 216: Class A Wanted Order [Subscribe Requested]_2

Zhou Family might not be as keen to collaborate with her as before.

But she did not believe the Zhou Family would dare to completely cut off such cooperation, nor did she believe they would dare let her expose the clandestine dealings between them.

Just as she was filled with doubts, hesitating and unable to make a decision, the covert contact arranged to communicate with the Zhou Family suddenly brought new intelligence.

After reading the intelligence ssage from the Zhou Family, she was both shocked and delighted.

“Hmph, at least they know what’s at stake!”

With a light snort, she imdiately decided to take on that bounty herself, allowing her to infiltrate Lanzhou openly and cleanly, while also repaying the Zhou Family for this favor.

What she did not anticipate was, by the ti she went to accept the bounty, soone had already taken on the mission.

“Elder Gao, can you tell who accepted the mission? I just happen to want to infiltrate Jingguo Country for so personal business. I had hoped to complete this mission on the way, but to my surprise, soone has beaten to it!”

Inside a grand hall, Lin Hongyu looked at the elder who issued the bounty with a touch of unwillingness.

Hearing her words, Elder Gao imdiately shook his head, “That won’t do, rules are rules. How could I break them and disclose such information?”

Then his tone changed, and he suddenly said, “However, if Protector Lin is looking for a pretext to infiltrate Jingguo, there happens to be a mission about to be issued to investigate the true nature of Jingguo Country’s Hundred Clans Grand Assembly. You could try to take on that task. If you complete it, the reward will be substantial.”

“Understood, Elder Gao, thank you very much!”

Lin Hongyu’s face lit up with joy, and she bowed deeply in gratitude then and there.

She then took the mission and left.

As he watched her departing figure, Elder Gao mused to himself, “The ‘personal business’ she ntioned must refer to the Red Shining Flowing Pearl Pill that appeared at the big auction in Yunzhou. She got wind of it so quickly; it seems that the information capabilities of the Red Dragon Hall are quite strong!”

Each hall of the Dragon Transformation Sect is almost equivalent to an independent sect, and thus each hall trains its own intelligence personnel to improve their competitiveness.

Lin Hongyu holds a high position in the Red Dragon Hall, and it’s no surprise that she can employ the hall’s intelligence personnel for her use.

It was for this reason that Elder Gao decided to do her a favor, giving her an opportunity.

Now having accepted the mission, Lin Hongyu promptly handed over the affairs of the Red Dragon Hall, then quickly set off for Jingguo Country.

She did not know who had so quickly taken the task of dealing with Zhou Chun, nor did she have the ti to investigate thoroughly.

All she could do now was hurry to Jingguo and warn the Zhou Family to be on guard.

It must be said that Lin Hongyu’s actions were swift.

By the ti the Zhou Family received her notification, they had not yet encountered any incidents.

Upon receiving her ssage, the Zhou Family took the matter very seriously.

Zhou Mingde, Zhou Daoyi, and Zhou Chun imdiately gathered in the mountain-top cave to discuss the issue.

Zhou Mingde was the first to speak, “Now the enemy is hidden and we are exposed. We don’t know if our opponent is male or female, nor do we know whether their cultivation is in the late or early stages of the Purple Mansion Phase. We are completely passive!”

“Luckily, we now have advance knowledge of this affair, which allows us to take so preventative asures!”

At this point, he turned his gaze towards Zhou Chun and said, “Since the enemy’s target is you, Zhengchun, you should stay inside the family gates and not go out.”

“Supre Elder, this advice is misguided!”

“There’s always been the saying, a thief has only to be lucky once, but the victim has to be lucky every ti.”

Zhou Chun shook his head repeatedly, disagreeing with Zhou Mingde’s suggestion.

He spoke with a grave expression, “In my view, since we already know that the enemy is coming straight for , why not create an opportunity that’s worth their while and then take the chance to kill them in return!”

Hearing his words, Zhou Mingde imdiately rejected the idea, “No, that’s too dangerous!”

He added with a heavy tone, “If the enemy is a late-stage Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator, you won’t even have a chance to hold on until I can arrive on the scene!”

“Moreover, even if we include Daoyi’s Spirit Pet, the Green Flood Dragon, our Zhou Family doesn’t have the ability to leave behind a late-stage Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator, and it would reveal the existence of the Green Flood Dragon!”

The difficulty of killing a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator is not ordinarily high.

Especially those protectors from the Dragon Transformation Sect, each of them is powerful and extrely difficult to eliminate.

With the current strength of the Zhou Family, it’s a boast to say for sure that we could succeed in killing an ordinary early-stage Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator, let alone mid-stage or late-stage ones.

Zhou Mingde, as the Supre Elder of the Zhou Family, certainly did not want to risk the life of Zhou Chun, a family junior he had high hopes for.

Yet, Zhou Chun, after hearing his words, was not persuaded.

Instead, he analyzed calmly, “The late-stage Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect are usually the top three ranked protectors of each hall. It’s unlikely that protectors of such level would take on a mission targeting an early-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator.”

“I have a third-order high-quality Defensive Talisman given to by Taoist Mingxia, with it as a safeguard, I should be able to handle any dangerous situation.”

“Furthermore, the Dragon Transformation Sect’s bounty is to capture alive to extract the Ancestral Resurrection secret technique, so the enemy will definitely not start by trying to kill . Regarding my safety, there’s no need to worry!”

At this point, Zhou Chun frowned slightly and murmured, “The only problem is, if we wanted to capture them, relying solely on our Zhou Family’s strength indeed seems too weak!”

“See, even you, Zhengchun, know that we can’t capture them with the strength of our Zhou Family, so why take such a risk!”

Zhou Mingde shook his head again and spoke in a low tone, “As long as we don’t arrange for important Clan mbers to leave the sect during this ti, if they can’t find an opportunity, they might just give up and leave.”

“But, Supre Elder, you also have to go to the Green Lotus Temple soon, and if you leave, our family will not have a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator in place. By then, I’m afraid they might boldly invade!”

Zhou Chun said calmly, his words causing Zhou Mingde to furrow his brows.

That’s right, he was going to the Green Lotus Temple in a few days.

To put on a show, one must go through with the whole act.

Only if he truly went to the Green Lotus Temple and showed sincere intentions of reconciliation, would Lin Hongyu’s side not suspect him when they made their move.

After all, many people had seen the Red Shining Flowing Pearl Pill being auctioned and taken by the Jiang Family.

And it was logical for the Zhou Family to seek reconciliation proactively, worrying about the Jiang Family’s mid-stage Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator breaking through to the late stage.

“Then how about you, Zhengchun, co to the Green Lotus Temple with ? With by your side, it would be enough to deter the enemy from acting rashly!”

After thinking for a mont, Zhou Mingde suggested his solution.

Zhou Chun, upon hearing this, spoke again, “But in doing so, if the enemy discovers that you, Supre Elder, have left and chooses to attack our family to seize the Ancestral Resurrection secret technique, what then? Even if the Clan Leader reveals the Green Flood Dragon to scare the enemy away, it won’t guarantee that people within our family won’t die or get injured!”

Hearing his words, Zhou Mingde couldn’t help but sigh, “After all this, Zhengchun, you’re still not giving up!”

“Yes, that’s just my nature. If I did not know beforehand, that would be another matter. But since I do know that soone is after , I don’t want to have to always be on guard against a sneak attack,” Zhou Chun said, openly admitting it with a firm tone.

At that mont, Zhou Daoyi, who had been silent, spoke up slowly, “Since Zhengchun is so determined, let’s not force him. Indeed, anyone in his situation would want to resolve this as soon as possible!”

Then he said in a low voice, “Regarding the matter of counter-killing that protector from the Dragon Transformation Sect, I do have an idea!”

“Oh, what good idea have you thought of, Daoyi?”

Zhou Mingde’s expression beca interested as he and Zhou Chun both looked towards Zhou Daoyi.

Zhou Daoyi rely whispered, “Dragon Abyss Marsh, Lu Ran!”
