Chapter 1266: Chapter 1266: You’ve Made Me So Sad! (3 Updates)
Ye Haochuan ultimately overestimated this group of the Blood Clan; they didn’t even know who RMB was, which frustrated Ye Haochuan greatly.
After wasting a lot of words, Ye Haochuan finally explained the great thoughts of RMB to them.
Arranging Allen and others, to be on the safe side, Ye Haochuan still gave Long Xiaotian a call.
"Good kid, the intel you just gave is really valuable. I’ve already reported it up, and the higher-ups said they’ll reward you well!" As soon as the phone connected, Long Xiaotian couldn’t help but laugh.
"Do you think I’m someone who only cares about rewards? Doing anything for the country and the people is obligatory, okay? As for the reward, just casually giving me a Treasure-Level Peak cultivation technique is fine; how could I possibly ask for more?" Ye Haochuan chuckled.
"You little brat, getting cocky with me, huh? Casually giving a Treasure-Level Peak technique, you think Treasure-Level techniques grow on trees?"
Long Xiaotian retorted with no good humor: "So, what have you gained this time from calling me?"
"How can there be so many gains? Do you really take me for a combine harvester that yields results as soon as it’s deployed?" Ye Haochuan pouted, "This time, I wanted to ask for your help!"
After saying this, he told Long Xiaotian his plan.
The more Long Xiaotian listened, the more low his tone became, and he coldly said, "Have you been advancing your cultivation too fast recently, and gotten cocky? There are several Nascent Soul experts on the other side, and you dare to infiltrate? You are courting death, do you know that?"
Long Xiaotian’s tone was quite bad, obviously angered by Ye Haochuan’s "fantastic ideas."
"Do you think I’m the kind to seek death?" Ye Haochuan replied irritably, "Besides, if you guys can go in, then you go. I don’t want to take this risk!"
"This..."
Long Xiaotian was left speechless; they had tried to infiltrate quietly, but each Nascent Soul expert was watched closely by the opponent, making sneaking in impossible. Sending in Core Formation Cultivators would be nothing less than a death mission.
Given that, Ye Haochuan, who had once killed a Nascent Soul expert, indeed seemed the best candidate. But Long Xiaotian always treated Ye Haochuan like a nephew and didn’t want him to take this risk.
"Even if you successfully infiltrate, so what? Most of the confrontations inside are between Nascent Soul experts. What help could you be?"
Well, is this looking down on me that much? Does it have to take me telling you about my feat of slaying a Nascent Soul Mid-Stage for you to have some confidence in me?
Ye Haochuan pouted and then suddenly announced righteously: "The rise and fall of a nation is everyone’s responsibility. Even if I can’t play a decisive role, helping those super experts knead their legs and shoulders is still serving the Xuanmen!"
"Cut it out, when did you develop such a high sense of duty? Tell me honestly, why on earth do you insist on going in?" Long Xiaotian snorted coldly.
Come on, do you really know me so well?
Ye Haochuan chuckled bitterly in his heart.
This time, when he went in, not only did he intend to change the currently deadlocked battle situation, but he also wanted to see if he could get his hands on some good stuff.
Profiting from war is the easiest. The White Court Origin Realm has been managed by the Western Holy See for so many years and surely has plenty of good things. If he could snag some, he’d make a fortune!
However, that was only in his thoughts. He couldn’t say that out loud.
With a dissatisfied tone, he said, "For someone from the Heavenly Gate, your thinking is quite shady, isn’t it? The sooner this war ends for Xuanmen, the better.
I’m going in to do my utmost to help Xuanmen end this war, and you keep thinking bad thoughts about me. Makes me so sad!"
Long Xiaotian had a face full of black lines, considering exposing Ye Haochuan’s grand-sounding yet hollow words, but suddenly changed his mind. Relying on Ye Haochuan’s cleverness, maybe he could indeed gain some unexpected harvests.
"Fine, how do you want me to coordinate with you?" Long Xiaotian finally yielded.
Ye Haochuan chuckled and said, "You’ve been watching them with such ’tender loving eyes’ for so long; isn’t it about time you slapped these detestable guys in the face?"
"Uh..."
Hanging up the phone, the Xuanmen over there quickly had a reaction.
All the Nascent Soul cultivators, like going through the motions, launched a few attacks at their opponents whom they had been confronting for a long time. The opponents also didn’t use their full strength, making the back-and-forth exchanges lively but yielding no substantial results.
But Ye Haochuan never intended for them to have any substantial results in the first place. Watching Xuanmen hold the others’ attention, Ye Haochuan called the Blood Clan to action, directly attacking the side of the Pentagon.
The Pentagon’s Evil Sect was instantly thrown into chaos. The Nascent Soul experts, who were battling the Xuanmen, cursed Xuanmen for their cunning and quickly split one Nascent Soul expert along with a group of Core Formation Cultivators to block the attack.
"On the battlefield, it’s all about tactics; what’s cunning and not cunning?" Long Xiaotian smirked, nodding at the surrounding Nascent Soul experts.
The experts immediately understood, unleashing all sorts of extraordinary moves.
Ye Haochuan appeared suddenly with several experts, providing an opportunity for Long Xiaotian as well. If they exploited the Evil Sect’s momentary confusion and surged in, they might actually break through.
The Evil Sect experts felt schemed against and soon found themselves at a disadvantage while fighting the Xuanmen.
Grabbing the opportunity, Long Xiaotian led Xuanmen’s second team in a renewed fierce assault.
Meanwhile, Allen Mas, along with a group from the Blood Clan, burst into the Pentagon, and were soon blocked by the Evil Sect’s Nascent Soul experts.
The two exchanged a smile, refusing to engage in a melee with the Evil Sect experts. Using the Blood Clan’s remarkable speed advantage, they quickly withdrew.
However, as soon as the Evil Sect retreated, they chased again. When the opponents turned to attack, they voluntarily retreated again.
After repeating this several times, the Evil Sect was angered, almost chasing tens of kilometers at times.
Ye Haochuan watched from afar, nodding with satisfaction. Although it took a lot of talking, it was clear that Allen Mas, the two Blood Clan experts, had already grasped the essence of guerrilla warfare.
Inside the Pentagon, District Master Wan coldly observed the battlefield situation, suddenly frowning.
"When did the Xuanmen start mingling with the Blood Clan?"
Standing beside her was Ming Quan, the one who had organized an ambush against the Xuanmen second team.
Upon hearing District Master Wan’s question, he hurriedly responded respectfully: "There’s indeed something fishy about this. I just took a closer look, and those two Blood Clan members seem to be under Abel."
"Abel?" District Master Wan arched her brows with disdain in her voice and said, "This guy was just wounded by us not long ago, didn’t he learn his lesson?"
"I’ll find Abel and make sure to eliminate this annoying guy for District Master!" Ming Quan replied awkwardly.
In the last massive defeat, although District Master Wan didn’t blame him too harshly, he always had an idea about returning with merit.
"No need!" District Master Wan suddenly waved her hand, saying, "They’re putting so much effort in, there must be another agenda. For now, stay put; there will be a time for you to take action!"
