Chapter 301: Chapter 289: Ye Chen’s Prediction
“Of course, they’re going to send soone to stop us from causing trouble, but they won’t focus all their energy on us, so we should be fine. Since they are already being watched, let them be the ones to raise hell which can cover our infiltration into the Central Plains,” ng Xiuluo said.
“Hmm, good analysis. What do you think is the best way to stir things up?” the Zen Master asked.
“Obviously, the bigger the ss, the better. Let them scramble, and make them believe that Slaughter Saint and Jing Po are making moves. If you want to escape their attention, you have to move. This is exactly how our leader managed to infiltrate the Central Plains from the sea and then sneak into the Wastelands! They eventually lost track of him and he easily escaped.”
“Hmm, good idea, don’t worry, they will stir things up by tomorrow.”
“Damn, you already had a plan in mind, didn’t you?” Tomorrow was also the day they planned to enter the Central Plains.
The Zen Master chuckled at this.
ng Xiuluo continued, “Our entering the Central Plains like this, we’re sure to be discovered. They’ll probably guess we are taking this opportunity to enter the Central Plains from the Wastelands.”
At that mont, Elder Xi Feng ca over and said, “We’re ready.”
ng Xiuluo asked, “Ready for what?”
“To enter the Central Plains, of course. We can’t just strut in blatantly.”
“How do you plan to enter the Central Plains?”
“Don’t worry, we’ll figure sothing out.”
“I’m afraid it won’t be that easy to shake them off.”
In the past two days, Elder Xi Feng had gathered a lot of cal rchants. He wanted to divide them into several groups, enter the Central Plains from various directions, and blend in.
ng Xiuluo looked back at the large group of people riding cals and horses and said, “You plan to deceive the people of the Immortal Demon Domain using these people.”
“Of course.” The Zen Master said.
“Will it work?”
“At present, this is the only way.” The Zen Master continued, “Tomorrow, Slaughter Saint and Jing Po will act separately, by then, they’ll also manage to draw the attention of the Immortal Demon Domain. We’ll take the opportunity to ride with these cal groups, separating and entering the Central Plains from different directions. I don’t believe they can keep tabs on us so easily.”
“Alright, looks like this is the only way. I guess I’m overthinking.”
“No, you were right to worry, I just didn’t inform you beforehand.”
The next day, Slaughter Saint and Jing Po suddenly split up. One went east and one went south, leaving Jiang Ouyang sowhat bewildered. He quickly sought out another person in charge, the Sect Leader of the Withered Leaf Sect, Guan Yi. They decided to deal with the two separately. Jiang Ouyang would take care of Slaughter Saint, and Guan Yi would deal with Jing Po. They would not let them cause trouble, especially at such a crucial ti. They could not allow Slaughter Saint and Jing Po to disrupt the Immortal Demon Domain Conference.
They also sent out a ssage to the outside.
At this ti, Qiao Fanfeng had already led his troops to the vicinity of the entrance to the Wastelands. Suddenly, as if it had been planned, several waves of cal teams appeared from different directions, distracting Qiao Fanfeng’s attention- he was sure this was a plot by the Dragon Slaying Clan. However, discerning which group was a distraction and which was the real Dragon Slaying Clan would take so ti, so they needed plenty of it.
Can Mo and Kong Sha also noticed this.
Touching his chin, Kong Sha muttered, “So many cal teams have co out, they’re trying to muddy the waters.”
Can Mo said, “It must be a plot by the Dragon Slaying Clan, they want to slip away in the chaos.”
“Could it really be like what the Sect Leader said, they want to co out and stir things up?”
“Definitely.” Can Mo said.
“Which group is the Dragon Slaying Clan?”
“I don’t know, but I think soone wants to know more than we do.” Can Mo knew Qiao Fanfeng was also here and had noticed him first. Can Mo continued, “Such a complicated issue-is better left to Qiao Fanfeng. We just need to watch him, let them do the work.”
“Right, we should not act at this ti.”
“Mmm, most importantly, we should not let the Dragon Slaying Clan discover us. Maybe they are entering the Central Plains in several batches.”
Kong Sha nodded and said, “I heard that Slaughter Saint and Jing Po have already started to move.”
“It must be a coordinated operation with what’s happening here.”
“We should inform the Sect Leader about what’s happening here as soon as possible.”
“Yes, we need to inform them so they can be prepared.”
“So, what should we do?”
“Follow Qiao Fanfeng’s n, keep an eye on Qiao Fanfeng, and make sure he’s always ahead of us. As long as Qiao Fanfeng doesn’t know about us, it’ll be fine.”
“Good idea, let them take the brunt for us.”
“Yes.”
After a whole day of fuss, it was finally figured out which cal groups posed no threat. By then, the Zen Master had already led his people quietly into the Central Plains.
Qiao Fanfeng quickly instructed his subordinates to inform Su Hong so they could be ntally prepared.
Ye Chen quickly received a pigeon ssage from Can Mo. By this ti, they were already deep into the Central Plains.
Jiang Zhuge said, “Looks like they really are going to stir things up in the Central Plains.”
“Of course, they definitely don’t want the Immortal Demon Domain to elect an Alliance Leader smoothly.” Ye Chen said.
“What should we do then? Should we have Can Mo and the others co over for a rendezvous?”
“Perhaps not.” Ye Chen had other plans in mind.
“They are unsure of where the Mutant Winged Dragon’s followers, who have entered the Central Plains, are headed. Besides, Qiao Fanfeng and his team are with them, and they are not particularly useful over there.”
“Let them stay in that area.”
“What can they do by staying there?”
“Of course, the Mutant Winged Dragon will inevitably enter the Central Plains from there.”
“You want them to keep an eye on the Mutant Winged Dragon, who may enter the Central Plains at any ti.”
“Correct. Joining us now won’t do much good, better let them stay there, rest for a while, and keep a watchful eye on the Mutant Winged Dragon’s n.”
Jiang Zhuge, after hearing this, fell silent for a mont then said thoughtfully, “You want them to guard there.”
“The current situation in the Immortal Demon realm remains unclear to us. The more people we have, the more likely we are to alert the inhabitants of the Immortal Demon realm. If we leave them there, they might co in handy at so point.”
“Hmm, the Sect Leader’s words are indeed reasonable.”
“Let them rest there.”
“And what about us?”
“Do we have any news of the Heavenly City Sect disciples?”
“I reckon they must have set off for the Immortal City in the past few days. By now, the issues in the Wastelands are hardly a secret, and they are undoubtedly a little scared. They fear the Mutant Winged Dragon suddenly invading Central Plains at any mont. They all want to co up with a plan, so they have to go to the Immortal City.”
Ye Chen nodded and said, “We should determine their whereabouts as soon as possible.”
Jiang Zhuge nodded.
Two days passed quickly.
Zen Master had Elder Xi Feng lead a small group of people in guiding away Qiao Fanfeng’s group using cal custors, while he secretly brought another group into the Central Plains.
Slaughter Saint and Jing Po caused so troubles, but in the end, these problems were resolved by Jiang Ouyang and Guan Yi.
That night, Jiang Zhuge presented Ye Chen with the news he had just received.
They settled down in a small town.
Jiang Zhuge said, “The location of the people from Heavenly City Sect has been confird.”
Ye Chen asked, “Is it far from here?”
Jiang Zhuge quickly pulled out a sheepskin map, marked a spot on it, and said, “Not far, only a day’s journey from here. We can catch up.”
“How many of them are there?”
“There should be over six hundred of them, led by their Sect Leader, Fang Ziren.”
Ye Chen looked at the map, marked the location of Immortal City, and connected a line to estimate the route they might take.
Jiang Zhuge said, “We can catch up with them tomorrow. Then we can just follow them.”
However, Ye Chen shook his head, continued to observe the two locations, and said, “No, following them is not our goal.”
Jiang Zhuge was sowhat surprised and asked, “You an, you don’t plan on following them?”
“Why should we follow them?”
“Didn’t you determine that they will be attacked by the Dragon Slaying Clan?”
Ye Chen nodded and said, “Following them is not the best thod.”
Jiang Zhuge was even more bewildered, “If we don’t follow them, how can we help when they get into trouble?”
“Indeed, it’s a good point. But let
ask you. If the Dragon Slaying Clan really wants to deal with the Heavenly City Sect, how will they do it?”
“A surprise ambush attack, of course.”
“Where do you think this ambush would occur?”
Jiang Zhuge thought for a mont and said, “There must be an easily ambushable spot along their route to Immortal City.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nodded.
Jiang Zhuge seed to have realized sothing as he understood Ye Chen’s intentions, “You an to wait for them.”
Ye Chen continued, “As you can see, there are only a few pathways. Most of them are flat lands. Ambushing on flat terrain is not beneficial nor lethal enough, so they will choose a mountainous area or a forest that is compulsory for the Heavenly City Sect to pass.”
Ye Chen circled two areas on the map, saying, “These two are the best places for an ambush and are indeed along the mandatory path.”
“You an they’d set an ambush here?”
“I don’t know, but I guess so. But I don’t want to guess; I want to see for myself. If there is indeed an ambush, there will definitely be so signs. These two spots are the most probable.” Ye Chen took a look around.
“That makes sense, but it’s too dangerous to go there.”
“No, don’t worry. I won’t be discovered. They are after the Heavenly City Sect, not us.” Ye Chen then said, “You can lead the team slowly. Li Mo and I will take a few people and leave first. If we discover anything, we will let you know imdiately.”
