Chapter 947: Chapter 80: The Mysterious Little Girl
Tang Jing could never have imagined that the half-dead body from not long ago was actually the vessel of the Order Keeper.
He was shocked by Tang Xian’s words. But soon, he accepted it.
This body was a replication based on Tang Xian’s physical template. Given that he himself could be the strongest Angel Envoy, it wasn’t too surprising for Tang Xian’s body to beco the vessel for the Order Keeper.
Yet looking back now, his elder brother had almost sat at the pinnacle of all major factions.
“The Order Keeper… is willing to give you her power?”
Tang Jing arrived at the crux of the matter.
Was Qi Yuan really so altruistic?
This was akin to a three-player card ga.
The Lord of Eden held the most powerful hand, and if Tang Xian and Qi Yuan didn’t join forces or exchange and rge their cards, they would both be eliminated by the Lord of Eden.
Thus, Tang Xian used the Galactic Legacy, while the Order Keeper left behind part of her power.
But was Qi Yuan really dead just like that?
The strongest vessel left behind for her, consciousness trapped in the divine realm, essentially wiped out in both mind and form?
Tang Xian didn’t believe it and said:
“Qi Yuan, as a machine turned human, is unparalleled in calculation. Even we, or the Lord of Eden, might not match her. Her willingness to give her power likely hides reasons beyond my comprehension.”
——You’ll understand what I want you to do later.
Tang Xian had not forgotten Qi Yuan’s final words, affirming that she might indeed have other plans left behind. He couldn’t fathom what they were.
“The level of coordination between you two is unimaginable. Even the Lord of Eden wouldn’t have anticipated this. But… didn’t brother ever consider using this body to defeat the Order Keeper?”
The Order Keeper’s greatest trump card was her unmatched power, which even the Beast God couldn’t rival. Surrendering that power essentially placed her in extre danger.
Tang Xian shook his head:
“No. Qi Yuan and I sealed off this mory. It was part of our mutual agreent. Qi Yuan rembered only one thing—to touch . Just like when I made contact with Xi He back then, triggering mories connected to you all, this mory’s trigger point was my interaction with Qi Yuan.”
“The necessity behind this lies first in deceiving the Lord of Eden—because only by fooling oneself can one fool it. Secondly, I didn’t want to beco that kind of form, and Qi Yuan didn’t genuinely wish to give her power. This was a scenario neither of us wanted to see happen, unless the Lord of Eden had already defeated both of us. Otherwise, we wouldn’t use this card. So, if I truly obtained the Order Keeper’s power, it ans my greatest enemy is no longer Qi Yuan.”
Deep down, Tang Xian didn’t feel the sense of relief that cos with a major enemy’s demise.
“By this point, the grievances between Qi Yuan and no longer matter. She may have other tricks up her sleeve, but I’m certain that until the Lord of Eden is destroyed, Qi Yuan won’t beco an obstacle for us.”
Tang Jing understood. He nodded.
Qi Yuan’s actions did appear to lack sufficient motive.
Why would she transfer her power rely because the enemy was too strong?
Yet, neither he nor Tang Xian knew the specifics of Qi Yuan’s plan.
Tang Xian said:
“Over these months when I was away, I need to know everything that happened. Not a single detail can be left out.”
“Shall we discuss as we move? For now, the most urgent task is rushing to Baichuan City for rescue,” Tang Jing said.
Tang Xian nodded. It had been a very, very long ti… since he last set foot in Baichuan City.
For others, this tifra might rely be half a year, but for Tang Xian, factoring in his stay at the Sacred Ground, two and a half years had passed.
Recovering those lost mories one by one filled him with gratitude.
“Not keeping mories is no big deal, but the present should never be abandoned.”
With that thought, Tang Xian and Tang Jing entered the teleportation rift.
…
…
Baichuan City.
The divine throne could oversee the fortresses, but it couldn’t monitor the state of Baichuan City.
The support from Tang Jing and Tang Xian had indeed arrived late. According to Tang Jing’s assessnt, it would take at least several more days before the chanical army and beast army reached Baichuan City.
But Baichuan City had already been surrounded by part of the vanguard forces.
At twilight, the setting sun dipped westward.
Baichuan City’s outskirts were littered with the wreckage of destroyed machines and beast carcasses.
The chanical army was ferocious beyond words, their numbers intimidatingly vast. Even just a scouting vanguard force was enough to inflict devastating damage on Baichuan City.
Many Baichuan City residents had retreated into underground bunkers—the forr sanctuaries.
However, the shelter’s capacity was limited.
The majority had ard themselves and were stationed at various defense points across Baichuan City, striving to provide fire support for the city’s elite combatants.
Leading the battle was Song Que, the forr Commander-in-Chief of the Human Alliance Army. His leadership earned the trust of everyone.
Tang Xiaojiu and Qing JiuYu ford a squad, defending the fiercest beast tide on Baichuan City’s west side.
Akasi, Tang Suoye, and Yuan Wu ford another squad to resist the most intense chanical army attack on the northern front.
The eastern enemies were single-handedly held off by Bai Shuang.
As for the southern front, Song Que, Lin Jue, Qin Qian, Gu Luo, Ye Feng, Li Zheng, and other forr elite hunters stood guard.
Though hunters couldn’t perform optimally in Baichuan City, their physical capabilities far outmatched ordinary people.
Ke Ye and Liu Lang had equipped the hunter defensive line with the most advanced weaponry.
