The Storm Shifts
Jian Changsheng felt that he was probably starting to see the Revolving Lantern of his life.
First it was endless dice rolling, then he started plumting crazily. Imdiately after, he was inexplicably besieged, and the overwhelming attacks almost took his little life. Just when he thought he could escape, he stepped on empty air again, and his whole person spun in the darkness for tens of seconds like riding a roller coaster, and then landed here...
The experience of a short one minute was as tortuous as his fate. Until now, as Jian Changsheng lay on the ground, he felt as if everything around him was spinning.
Even Chen Ling at the side...
Chen Ling?!
Jian Changsheng's eyes widened, he sat up with a swish, and spoke through gritted teeth: "Good on you, Hearts!! Your Father will fight you..."
"I heard you told the Dragon-Strangling Warriors that your na is Lin Yan?" Chen Ling spoke calmly without turning his head.
Jian Changsheng: "Uh..."
Jian Changsheng's imposing aura instantly weakened by more than half, and he turned his head to look elsewhere sowhat awkwardly.
Seeing this scene, Chen Ling knew that the matter of him telling The Assassin he was called Jian Wubing hadn't been exposed yet... Otherwise, with Little Jian's personality, he definitely would have choked back with the sa words. Of course, Chen Ling also couldn't actively prick it. After all, he was currently standing on the "moral high ground".
"So, this is the place where you manipulate everything in the dark?" Jian Changsheng naturally changed the topic, "It looks quite decent."
"Just Usurping a Position, that's all."
Chen Ling's gaze focused on one of the mirrors, "They... are also about to have a result."
Jian Changsheng looked towards that mirror, only to see at the deepest part of the Dark Palace, a stone door leading to the outside world was slowly opening... At the sa ti, Tu Tian had already forcefully fought his way to Pu Xiachan. Even if he was riddled with wounds all over, there was not the slightest trace of fear.
After a bout of entangled fighting between the two, Pu Xiachan was still smashed into the wall by a staff. In such a narrow space, whether it was the Path of the Scholar God or the Path of Strategy, it was almost impossible for them to be a match for a berserk Path of Force.
Tu Tian snatched the Stone Ball from her hands, then carrying the flag, he stumbled out of the passage and disappeared from everyone's field of vision...
Seeing this, the Pathway Chief of [Pitch Pot] at the side narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't imdiately chase after him to slaughter Tu Tian, but bent down, pinched a wisp of dust from the ground, and casually scattered it in the air.
These dust particles drifted in the air, seemingly guided by so kind of power, following Tu Tian to fly towards the surface.
"Li Shengn, why aren't you making a move?!"
Pu Xiachan stood up from the ruins, covered in quite a bit of fresh blood. At this mont, she glared angrily at the opposite Pathway Chief of [Pitch Pot], "Can't you see he is already an arrow at the end of its flight? Why didn't you make him stay! After he leaves the Dark Palace with the [Privilege], that thing will be bound to him!"
"Of course I know, but the closer a beast is to dying, the more dangerous it is."
"Then you just handed the [Privilege] over to others?"
Facing Pu Xiachan's questioning, Li Shengn, the Pathway Chief of [Pitch Pot], spoke calmly, "Miss Pu, you guys seem to have sowhat too high expectations for the [Privilege]... That [Privilege] can only pin a location for a star position's descent when the final stage opens. It doesn't an directly obtaining a seat. In other words, it rely occupied a first-mover advantage.
But think carefully, even without holding the [Privilege] in hand... this kind of first-mover advantage can actually also be possessed."
"... What do you an?"
"Tu Tian will inevitably use the [Privilege] to designate the star position to descend beside him. This ans, as long as we lock onto Tu Tian's position, we can equally predict the general descent location of the star position... Moreover, do you think he, who is heavily injured, can really guard that seat in the end?"
Hearing this sentence, Pu Xiachan fell into deep thought:
"You an... wait until after he summons the star position, then make a move to kill him and forcefully occupy the star position?"
"Exactly so."
"But there is still a period of ti until the final stage now. If Tu Tian finds a place to rest and heal his injuries, he should still be able to recover his peak strength in the end. Are you so confident you can kill him?"
"If that's the case, as long as we don't give him the chance to heal his injuries, won't it be fine?" The corners of Li Shengn's mouth curled up slightly,
"We know that after leaving the Dark Palace, the privilege will bind to him, but the other participants don't know... As long as we go out and spread the news, letting other participants know Tu Tian holds the privilege and is heavily injured...
Guess, will he still have a chance to rest?"
Pu Xiachan was stunned. She stared at Li Shengn for a long ti, before she couldn't help but click her tongue.
"You people of the Path of Strategy, your hearts are indeed dirty..."
"? You think too highly of ." Li Shengn smiled. "I'm just soone who plays Pitch-pot. If you've dealt with those people playing chess, you'll know what a truly 'dirty heart' is."
After Li Shengn finished speaking, just as he was about to leave, he finally noticed there was still Club 7 standing in the corner, and was slightly stunned.
Standing there, this Club seed to have fundantally no presence, so much so that when he was talking to Pu Xiachan, he actually forgot about this guy's existence... Accidentally spilling out all his "evil plan".
Feeling the strange gazes simultaneously cast over by Li Shengn and Pu Xiachan, Club 7 was silent for a mont,
"What you said is very right. Count in on this matter of scheming against Tu Tian."
"..."
The corners of Li Shengn's mouth twitched slightly, seemingly hesitating for a mont whether to directly slaughter this guy. But thinking carefully, for soone to survive all the way to now from this purgatory-like Dark Palace, this person was definitely also not so simple character. Now the [Privilege] was no longer here either, there was no need to take this risk.
"Your Excellency is..."
"Oh, I am Jin Fugui, from the folk."
"Mr. Jin, since we are all on the sa path, how about we travel together for now?"
Although Club 7 had already expressed that he wouldn't sabotage their plan, Li Shengn was still sowhat uneasy, so he simply pulled him along to leave together.
"No problem."
"After you two."
"After you!"
"Ah, after you guys..."
Li Shengn, Pu Xiachan, and Club 7 dilly-dallied at the door for a long ti, outwardly modest but each harboring their own ulterior motives, before finally entering the passage and gradually disappearing into the Dark Palace.
The underground space that was still in a fierce slaughter just now fell into a dead silence.
After an unknown amount of ti, two figures finally walked out slowly from a secret passage.
"You actually let a few go... I thought you planned to trick them all to death here." Looking in the direction the three left, Jian Changsheng couldn't help but speak, "Or is it that their plan is also within your calculations?"
"It can't be considered calculation, just so simplest mind gas." Chen Ling said indifferently, "If No One Survived in the Dark Palace, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of other referees and participants; if only one person goes out holding the [Privilege], no one outside will know what happened here;
But if two or three people escape and spread the news of the privilege out, it can sweep the storm originally inside the Dark Palace to the entire Old District... The more chaotic the situation, the more beneficial it is to us."
