Chapter 273 Playing the Thief Again?
Star Tower was indeed an Immortal Artifact.
In the entire Continental Empire, it was an exceedingly revered existence.
It was only natural for some to covet it.
However, Xu Nian never imagined
that the Imperial Prince had set his sights on Chen Wudi so quickly.
Immortal Seeking Needle?
What was that?
It could actually determine the location of the Star Tower.
Nevertheless, this turn of events also let Xu Nian know
that Chen Wudi was currently in Ice Luo City.
"It seems if I want to find Chen Wudi and the others, I must keep a close eye on this Imperial Prince," Xu Nian muttered to himself in his heart.
But before that,
he had another issue to resolve.
Refining Immortal Array?

It appeared to be a Formation specifically designed against the Star Tower.
Given the Imperial Prince's grand display, he obviously came prepared.
Therefore, he must find a way to counter this so-called Refining Immortal Array within these three days.
Next, Xu Nian and his companions quietly followed the Imperial Prince.
In the end, they found that the Imperial Prince had entered the City Lord Mansion.
Xu Nian and Bai Feng settled down in an inn within the City Lord Mansion.
And he had Bai Feng constantly monitor the movements of the Imperial Prince and the cold man.
Should they discover anything, they'd immediately report back.
As for Xu Nian, he locked himself in his room.
"Empress, Empress!"
After thinking it over carefully, Xu Nian still decided to ask Emperor Ye Tian for advice.
After all, Emperor Ye Tian had seen and understood far more than he had.
"You little brat, what are you doing, disturbing my beautiful dream? Do you believe I can turn you into an idiot right now?" Emperor Ye Tian's angered voice responded to Xu Nian.
Xu Nian sheepishly smiled.
Emperor Ye Tian's irritability upon waking up was indeed significant.
These past days, Emperor Ye Tian had been sleeping, barely showing her face.@@novelbin@@
Naturally, Xu Nian did not disturb her.
"Empress, I really didn't want to disturb your peaceful dream, but I've run into some trouble and need Your Majesty to help enlighten me," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Speak quickly!" Emperor Ye Tian replied impatiently.
Xu Nian promptly replied with joy, "Might Your Majesty have heard of the Refining Immortal Array?"
"Refining Immortal Array? How could I possibly have heard of such a trashy Formation? But from the name, it should be an Immortal Level Array or something like that, boy, where did you hear this name from?" Emperor Ye Tian asked with interest.
Xu Nian then told Emperor Ye Tian everything he had seen and heard, without omitting a single detail.
"Based on what you've said, your brother Chen Wudi is indeed in some danger. Although the Refining Immortal Array can't burn the Star Tower to ashes, it can block the Spiritual Energy of the Star Tower, and even incinerate it. By that time, the entire Star Tower will become a furnace, and unless there's an Immortal-level expert, nobody can withstand it, not even the so-called Saints that you speak of," Emperor Ye Tian answered.
"Is there any way to resolve this?" Xu Nian asked with a serious expression.
"It's simple, the best way is to kill them before they release the Formation," Emperor Ye Tian said casually.
Xu Nian shook his head.
Although the Imperial Prince was just an Eight-star War General, Xu Nian couldn't claim to be able to kill him in an instant.
For one, the Prince had an extraordinary background and profound resources.
He must have many means to protect his life.
Killing him was definitely not going to be easy, let alone in a single instant.
And once he released the Refining Immortal Array, the only thing waiting for them would be a dead end.
After all, Emperor Ye Tian had already said.
Even Saints coming here would be of no use.
"There's actually another method," Emperor Ye Tian spoke.
"Eh, what method?" Xu Nian was immediately delighted.
"Break a formation with a formation. Set up an even stronger formation to directly destroy his nonsense Refining Immortal Array, and according to my estimation, his formation isn't truly at the Immortal Level. After all, this is the Mortal World, and there's no Immortal Jade available to set up an Immortal Level Array, so his array must have been weakened. It's likely set up with Spirit Stones," Emperor Ye Tian explained.
"But I don't understand formations, do I?" Xu Nian frowned.
"Kid, have you forgotten about me? It's just a minor Immortal Level Array. I can easily create a formation for you that's much stronger than his rubbish Refining Immortal Array," Emperor Ye Tian said disdainfully.
"That's great!" Xu Nian's eyes lit up instantly, and he called out excitedly.
"However, I need Spirit Stones, and the more, the better," Emperor Ye Tian said.
The smile on Xu Nian's face instantly froze.
Spirit Stones?
Where would he find those?
He had never seen a Spirit Stone in his life, only read about them in books.
Even the Artifact Refining Sect didn't have such things.
"Boy, you really are quite dense. While you don't have Spirit Stones, others do!" Emperor Ye Tian's voice echoed in Xu Nian's mind.
Xu Nian was stunned, then he realized what was meant.
"Do you mean..." Xu Nian's eyes brightened even more.
"That's right, the giant ship anchored outside the city. That ship can fly because it uses a formation, and to make such a huge ship take flight, it must need a lot of Spirit Stones. If you steal those stones, then won't you have the Spirit Stones for your formation?" Emperor Ye Tian said with a sly laugh.
Xu Nian's mouth twitched.
Stealing again?
He really began to suspect that this Yetian God Emperor had a thief's upbringing.
But this time was different from the last.
This time there wasn't a hint of guilt in stealing, but rather a bit of excitement.
This Imperial Prince wanted to deal with Chen Wudi.
So, what if he stole a bit of his Spirit Stones to use against him?
How about that?
Thus, Xu Nian was wholeheartedly in favor of Emperor Ye Tian's suggestion.
Just thinking about the Imperial Prince finding out that Xu Nian was using his Spirit Stones against him stirred an inexplicable urge within him.
"However, don't get too happy too early. That worthless Prince dares to leave the Spiritual Ship out there because he's naturally not afraid of it being stolen, so getting your hands on those Spirit Stones definitely won't be as easy as you think," Emperor Ye Tian's voice rang out again.
Xu Nian nodded upon hearing this.
He had already considered this point.
But even if it was dangerous, he had to go.
Because this involved the lives of four people from the Chen Family, including Zhao Yanyun.
He couldn't allow himself a moment of hesitation.
Additionally, Xu Nian was somewhat anticipatory.
He wondered what kind of formidable formation Emperor Ye Tian would produce.
After that, Xu Nian began to meditate and cultivate quietly until night fell.
Naturally, night time was most suitable for a thief to steal.
The sky gradually darkened.
Xu Nian quickly changed into a black outfit.
Then he silently slipped out of his room.
He didn't even alert Bai Feng.
After all, the fewer people involved in a theft, the better.
Next, Xu Nian turned into a shadowy figure, darting toward the giant, hovering ship outside the city.
Nobody knew that a shocking thief had been born on this night.
What do you think?
