Chapter 479: The Wildest Plan in History
"The poison he's been afflicted with won't easily find an antidote soon enough. If Wing Blade takes him back to Daxia, I'm afraid he'll be back there with his blood drained dry."
In the ancient manor, Fog Heavenly King was the first to receive this message.
As soon as the message was out, everyone's complexion turned ashen.
Lin Xiaosu and Blue Demon broke through the siege.
This announced that their action had completely failed!
"Track them!" ordered Fog Heavenly King in a low voice.
The tracker was the first clever move—Davis, under the guise of investigation funds, gave him fifty thousand Luo Yuan, and one of them had the latest tracker implanted using the latest technology.
The tracker's displayed location matched his real location all along, showing that he always carried this fifty thousand Luo Yuan with him.
As long as you still have this fifty thousand Luo Yuan on you, there's no escape for you!
Even if you escape the mountain area, you won't escape to the sky.
Unless you use Wing Blade now to flee Luoba State.
Otherwise, even if it's taboo, even in the bustling city, we have to take you down!
This was Fog Heavenly King's determination.
She couldn't accept her carefully crafted plan failing like this.
However, her subordinates quickly reported that the tracker had lost its signal, perhaps the guy had already figured it out.
Fog Heavenly King was genuinely stunned.
For an ordinary person, discovering a problematic note among fifty thousand Luo Yuan was nearly impossible.
But for him, could anything be impossible?
Could he really have found it, or did he just enter a signal dead zone?
"Keep monitoring. Report immediately upon finding any signal!" commanded Fog Heavenly King.
"Yes!"
Her intuition was spot on.
Lin Xiaosu had long noticed the issue with that note, but to Lin Xiaosu, putting a tracker on money was a joke.
Is he the kind of person who carries cash on him?
No matter how much cash lands in his hand, doesn't it all get thrown into the Space Secret Realm?
The Space Secret Realm is another world, endowed with the ability to cut off anything you can imagine!
At first, Lin Xiaosu kept that note on him.
But after genuinely breaking through, would he still provide you coordinates?
The tracker entered the Secret Realm Space.
They thus truly became free people in every sense.
The three entered the small wooden house by the lakeside, Lin Xiaosu's eyes swiftly glanced over the house's elegance, stepping directly into the inner room.
In the inner room, a Wing Blade stood against the wall, motionless like a sculpture.
On the bed, blood was flowing profusely.
Blood Trace lay on the bed with eyes wide open in the dark.
Seeing Lin Xiaosu, his colorless face suddenly turned exceptionally animated.
"Let me handle the healing!" Saintess Qian Ling stepped forward, stretching out her hand, a wildflower appeared in her palm.
Blood Trace stared in a daze...
"Blood Heavenly King, trust her!" Lin Xiaosu smiled: "This flower's effect on healing is about ten times better than my Rejuvenation True Qi! And with everlasting benefits!"
Blood Trace deeply looked at him, took the flower, and swallowed it whole.
As the flower entered his esophagus, his injuries suddenly all started to wriggle.
In moments, the bleeding stopped, and the wounds on his body scabbed, Lin Xiaosu lightly rubbed, and the blood scabs fell off, shaking Blood Trace to his core.
This... Is this healing?
Isn't this clearly an extraordinary self-healing gene?
He never had such legendary genes, but now, he unmistakably felt this magical vitality all over his body, the poison in his body dissipating in moments, injuries mending in moments...
"Heavenly King Blue, a gift for our first meeting!" Saintess Qian Ling raised her hand, another flower appeared in her palm, handed over to Blue Demon.
Blue Demon slightly frowned, "I'm not injured."
"Even if you're unhurt now, there will inevitably come a day you will be!" Saintess Qian Ling said, "This is a Wood Element Flower. If you take it, you'll also gain the power of instantaneous self-healing."
Instantaneous self-healing...
This is what every warrior dreams of, arguably one of the most formidable abilities.
Yet it can be easily obtained with just a flower.
This completely overturns the gene rules!
Even someone as dignified as Blue Demon, as a Heavenly King, felt a slight tremble in his heart.
"Take it!" Lin Xiaosu smiled, "There's no need for formality between comrades."
Blue Demon took it and swallowed it in one gulp.
Saintess Qian Ling gently turned, "Heavenly King Blue, shall we go outside for some tea? Let them chat?"
"Alright!"
Blue Demon went out shoulder to shoulder with her.
Inside the room, only Lin Xiaosu and Blood Trace remained.
Blood Trace reached out his hand to grab Lin Xiaosu's, and Lin Xiaosu clasped his hand in return.
"Brother, I didn't expect this action to turn out this way!" Blood Trace said.
"Walking the battlefield and living on the edge of doom, there will always be a day caught in a predicament, a turning point will eventually come if you don't give up."
Blood Trace smiled, "I never thought of giving up, I just didn't dare to imagine being too wild, at least absolutely didn't expect you, brother, to be so wild, using Wing Blade to effortlessly break through the siege."
"There's more wild to come!" Lin Xiaosu peered into his eyes.
Blood Trace's eyes suddenly lit up, he shot up: "Tell me!"
"Uproot the Nine Headed Snake Headquarters!"
Blood Trace was shaken to his core...
Outside, the two women just brought their tea cups close to their mouths and abruptly stopped.
Their eyes met, and they saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Pull out the Nine Headed Snake headquarters!
How wild is that?
Even Chief Long, at this stage, absolutely wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.
Because everyone knows what kind of snake the Nine Headed Snake is, its power, its layout, its talents, its territory...
There is no quick solution to the game with the Nine Headed Snake.
Only mutually assured destruction.
It has always been this way.
Even if it were Qianlong's top Heavenly King Jing Lei, if he stepped onto the land of Luoba State, his ideal scenario might be to kill one Heavenly King and absolutely wouldn't dare to imagine much more.
And Lin Xiaosu?
But wants to pull out the Nine Headed Snake headquarters with the strength of four people!
How is that possible?
They don't even have any clues...
Even Blue Demon, who just got some big news, personally heard Lin Xiaosu interrogate Davis, gaining a lot of new information outside the Qianlong system, feels that this is entirely impractical.
Davis didn't even reveal a single Heavenly King.
He directly follows the command of Fog Heavenly King, yet he doesn't even know who Fog Heavenly King is.
The Nine Headed Snake practices management structure where superiors know their subordinates, peers know few, and absolutely no one knows their superiors.
That is exactly why this management structure exists.
The highest tier of Nine Headed Snake has always been among the sea of clouds, and no one knows.
Where is the headquarters?
Equally, no one knows.
Anyone who enters Luoba State will end up in the vast ocean of the Nine Headed Snake. You only know that countless people around you belong to the Nine Headed Snake, but where the Snake Head is, you have no idea!
This is the dilemma, how to break it?
Blood Trace stepped out of the room, Blue Demon outside stood up.
Saintess Qian Ling extended her hand and poured Blood Trace a cup of tea.
Lin Xiaosu also sat at the table, taking the tea handed over by Saintess Qian Ling...
"Entering Luoba State, the first stage of the mission is already successfully completed, but this task is not the end! The end goal is to destroy the Nine Headed Snake headquarters!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Currently there's a difficulty, the biggest difficulty being that we haven't yet discovered where the headquarters is located, nor who the real top-level members of the headquarters are. However, I believe that as long as we proceed step by step with the plan, we can gradually connect the dots and finally uncover all the secrets of the Nine Headed Snake!"
"Speak!" Blood Trace seemed to be recharged with electricity once again.
Lin Xiaosu said, "I've gotten a few names from Davis, among which are a few we can work with..."
A series of arrangements...
Blood Trace and Blue Demon exchanged glances: "What kind of tactics are these? An information war or a public opinion war?"
"Who cares what kind of war, as long as it's useful!" Lin Xiaosu laughed.
"Alright, then we'll head there now!" Blood Trace stood up.
"Alright!"
In a flash, the figures of Blue Demon and Blood Trace disappeared almost simultaneously.
In the lakeside cabin, light flickered in the eyes of Saintess Qian Ling: "You're now already the Hidden Dragon Uncrowned King, perhaps even more!"
"What do you mean by perhaps even more?"
"At least the Qianlong King doesn't have the right to command two legitimate Heavenly Kings, yet when you speak, they act on your command. In today's world, only the Qianlong Head can achieve this," said Saintess Qian Ling with a smile.
"You're wrong, it's not about giving orders, and they're not acting on commands, but rather they trust me, it's just trust!" Lin Xiaosu raised his hand slightly, and six points of starlight suddenly appeared at his fingertips.
Once these six points of starlight appeared, as if a step brought the surroundings of the cabin back to spring.
Because these were his Heavenly Star Tears.
Skin Heavenly Star.
The first one, he had already given to Saintess Qian Ling, and he had promised that he would save the rest for her, all nine in the future.
Saintess Qian Ling gazed at the six points of starlight at his fingertips, her breath seemed to momentarily stop.
"Six?"
"Yes!"
"We separated at Tashan Lake only five months ago!"
"Six Heavenly Star Tears in five months, do you think I'm a genius?"
Saintess Qian Ling gently closed her eyes, "It's not about what I think, you don't need anyone to think anything, you are a genius. But there's a famous saying in this world, 'There's a fine line between genius and lunatic.' Is that really true?"
"Why do you say that?" Lin Xiaosu flicked his finger, and the six points of starlight simultaneously shot into Saintess Qian Ling's brow.
Saintess Qian Ling slowly opened her eyes, "Because I can see, you only have six Heavenly Star Tears within you... you really took that step! You surely know what I'm talking about... the silliest step on the Cultivation Path!"
His Skin Heavenly Star had a total of seven gathered.
But currently, the Shining Star that rose above the Blood Tower—Bone Star, only had six.
The numbers of Skin Heavenly Star and Bone Star should be equal, there should absolutely not be any discrepancy in numbers.
The only possible explanation is: Lin Xiaosu did that foolish thing!
It's the matter Lin Xiaosu called her about the other day!
She repeatedly warned him, never use his Bone Star to save someone, absolutely not, because as long as he loses this Heavenly Star Tear, he'll never be able to enter Observing Heaven!
This is a judgment of a dead end!
This is the greatest taboo that cultivators fear.
He ignored her kind advice.
Still took off one of his Bone Star to save someone.
A Bone Star that can be gathered which even the ancient Wan Clan Heavenly Prides couldn't.
One that can shine from One Star to Seven Stars in five months.
What kind of cultivation prodigy is this?
It's a world-class pride that even this sect saintess crossing from ancient times couldn't imagine.
If placed in ancient times, a person like him would be worth countless guardians sacrificing their lives for, because he would be the hope of his clan, his cultivation road is more important than anything, even if thousands die, securing his cultivation path is paramount.
There would be definitely no foolishness of "cutting one's own cultivation road to save a person."
However, in him, it was overturned.
