Chapter 413: 227, Reunion with a Lost Friend
White walls and black tiles, green houses and jade eaves, leisurely soft clouds drifted aimlessly above the firmament.
Between the city towers and high platforms, figures darted back and forth like rabbits and hawks.
Once they had ventured deeper into the White Jade Capital, the holy light that filled the city finally began to dissipate.
However, what followed was the dazzling spiritual light emitted from the walls and floor tiles inscribed with runes, and additionally, various puppets and spiritual beasts occasionally sprang out from the alleys.
The deeper the group ventured into the heartland, the more obstructions they encountered.
“This is practically no different from a major siege battle.”
An Yulan’s expression looked very unsightly.
With this action, the Demon Sect was clearly telling them that even if the human and demon forces joined hands, they could stand tall with the support of this city and wear down their core strength.
“It seems that having survived so long between the cracks of humans and demons, the Demon Sect indeed possesses no trivial strength.”
Xu Yuan felt somewhat moved.
These forces, indeed each had their own capabilities.
The Demon Sect possessed many years of profound foundations, while just one Divine Emperor Bloodline in the human race was enough to allow an ordinary mortal to contest experts of the Primordial Spirit.
And the treasures held by the demon race likely were not far behind.
These were elements rarely revealed in the original plot.
“If one day I truly plan to counterattack, such foundations must also be considered.”
Xu Yuan was not too pessimistic, after all, the five supreme fated sovereigns of this world stood by his side.
Just Tian Liuli alone, should she return to the Immortal Realm, would be enough for the major forces to have their hands full.
Although it was not ruled out that they might have means to counteract Immortals, who indeed was Tian Liuli?
A reincarnation of the Splendid Immortal Empress of the Jade Emperor Liuli Heaven, just reaching the Immortal Realm would be enough to crush the lower realm, no problem.
Unless she encountered a reincarnation of the same level.
“Next, we might need to change our strategy a bit.”
Mo Qianxian extended her delicate jade hand and casually swatted away an approaching puppet, speaking lightly, “If I remember correctly, just ahead is three thousand yards. In the White Jade Capital, three thousand yards is a watershed. Beyond that, the formations and puppets inside will likely step up a level. At that time, if we continue rotating one by one, Mu Yi and I can still hold up, but the rest of you might not endure the consumption. Besides the two of us, you should pair up in groups of two.”
Mu Yi was the name of the Primordial Spirit Protector beside An Yulan.
An Yulan nodded, agreeing with her statement, “In terms of burst power, you and your junior brother might be much stronger than Mu Yi, but in terms of endurance, you cannot compare with her.”
“Okay, I’ll pair up with Xu Yuan.”
As soon as An Yulan finished speaking, Liu Ruoxue eagerly nodded and said, “Miss An, you should pair up with Miss Lin. It’s better for you to look out for each other.”
“Why?”
Lin Qingque was displeased, “I want to be in a group with my senior brother!”
Liu Ruoxue looked calm and unruffled, as if there was no personal interest involved, “Because by strength, this is the most suitable pairing. Aside from Mu Yi and Miss Mo, among the remaining four of us, Xu Yuan is the strongest, you are second, followed by Miss An, and I am the weakest. The two of you are in the middle, perfectly complementing each other, while I, being the weakest, need the care of Xu Yuan, the strongest. Any problem with that?”
Her words were extremely serious, as if there were no other factors involved.
Meanwhile, this was the most she had spoken at one go.
“You?!”
Lin Qingque turned red with anger.
She had never imagined that this person could be so shameless to this extent.
To be grouped with her senior brother, she even said such shamelessly flattering words?
Knowing she was weak but not focusing on improving, instead taking pride in it?
Playing tricks at a time like this?
But she had to admit that what Liu Ruoxue said seemed not wrong.
“Hmph! Who told you that we are arranging groups based on the level of strength?”
Lin Qingque quickly found an excuse, “Clearly, we should consider our respective attributes. I am skilled in Illusion Technique, and senior brother is good at offensive combat. Wouldn’t our efficiency in advancing be much faster than yours?”
Mo Qianxian looked calm, a smirk on her lips.
That was exactly why she had excused herself ahead of time.
Watching a fight from the sidelines was also a great pleasure.
After all, teaming up with him while under everyone’s watch would yield no real benefit.
Beyond satisfying her mentality, there were no practical benefits.
This was not what she wanted.
Just like the actions of the three women before the operation in the White Jade Capital.
Liu Ruoxue and Lin Qingque choosing to kiss, aside from potentially making Tian Liuli who was observing through the Water Mirror angry, there were no practical benefits.
But she was different.
The more she teased, the more itchy his heart would become.
“Alright, stop arguing.”
Xu Yuan spoke emotionlessly, “You two be one group, and I’ll team up with Miss An.”
An Yulan, who was quietly enjoying the show while expecting him to make a fool of himself, almost didn’t catch on, “Huh?”
“No way!”
“That’s not acceptable!”
The two spoke in unison.
“Don’t forget what you promised me before.”
Xu Yuan calmly reminded the two.
He knew making this choice was definitely not the best, but it surely wasn’t the worst.
Choosing one would offend the other and Tian Liuli.
