Chapter 1597: Chapter Fifty-Nine: Infatuated Girl

In this world, there are no moral principles that allow free and unobstructed passage; everything depends on adapting to the situation, timing, and circumstances.

Tang Luo wanted to witness the grandeur of the Wang Clan’s Starry Sky Great Array, but relying solely on himself was clearly too risky.

Therefore, finding some allies to divert attention became especially critical.

While the grandmaster’s Spiritual Light Escape Technique was exceedingly fast, it was inappropriate to use it at this time. Thus, both of them used the Cloud Veil Body Painting to conceal their auras and slowly approached Beimang.

Their unhurried pace stemmed from the confidence within as well as an understanding of the sacred land of the Tianan Wang Family.

If today the Han Family had taken action, it might have simply been a round of Chaos United Attack that would flatten both the Blood God World and its sovereign.

However, the Tianan Wang Family would not be so reckless. The Yin-Yang Imperial Palace had mobilized almost all of its elites, and it wasn’t just to kill the Blood Lord or to keep the peace in Lin Chuan.

Therefore, even though Lin Chuan had been sealed off by the Starry Sky Great Array, Tang Luo could still make the following judgments:

The first point is that the Tianan Wang Family must want something from the Blood Lord, and it is crucial for the Yin-Yang Imperial Palace.

The second point is that the Blood Lord definitely has no threat to his life in the short term. This leaves time for the Han Family to take action.

The third and most crucial point is that the Han Family needs to understand the position of the Wang Family.

From the current overall situation in Xiehe, it looks incredibly difficult for the Han Family to restore its rule.

Firstly, in terms of strength, it’s unknown how much resilience the Han Family, dormant for a thousand years, has. But in the end, it cannot surpass any of the families in the Three Realms Holy Land.

Even with a Saint King Realm expert capable of slaying Cao Jinyu, it’s still far from making the Three Realms Holy Land wary.

At this moment, an ally becomes very important. Martial Saint Mountain does not seem to be likely to ally with the Han Family, whereas the Xu Clan from Yuanzhou, due to Old Master Xu’s victory, might somewhat support it.

But such support is certainly not unconditional, or rather, if the Han Family intends to restore power by force, then the Xu Clan from Yuanzhou will definitely not side with them.

After much consideration, only the incredibly wealthy and strategically located Wang Family from Southern Tianan might form an alliance with the Han Family, but such matters are unpredictable.

At least Tang Luo has not found any reason for the Wang Family, firmly on the sidelines, to support the restoration of the Han Family.

Perhaps the situation in Lin Chuan could become a turning point for an alliance between the Han and Wang Families, but who can say for sure?

Tang Luo is only responsible for delivering intelligence. As for how the Han Family decides to act, that’s not something he can interfere with.

Having once cooperated in battle, he is rather sensitive to the Han Family’s actions; what was originally just a plan for the spectacular collapse of the Hanging Sky City turned into an action that challenged the Three Realms Holy Land.

Slaying Cao Jinyu, annihilating the Vajra Masters from Buddha’s Country, killing the Lord Lei Ze with the stature of a Saint King.

Who knows what kind of mischief those from the Han Family will come up with this time.

Thus, this time Tang Luo does not intend to participate in the Han Family’s plan, only considering himself as an emotionless messenger.

After revealing to Ji Shang that the Blood Lord was an ally, Tang Luo left Lingxiao Peak with Yun Xiu.

“Where to next?”

Yun Xiu, nestled in Tang Luo’s arm and resting her head on his shoulder, asked softly.

“Nowhere else to go.”

Tang Luo gently rubbed his wife’s slightly tired face and whispered, “We’re going home.”

…

Atop the snowy summit of Lingxiao Peak

Sect Leader Ji Shang was walking through the falling snow in the sky, crossing over a dozen peaks with a single step.

Diving into the bottomless ice pit, Ji Shang saw the eighteen dragon locks binding a golden body, half scorched by karmic fire, half eroded by the cold air of the mysterious netherworld.

“Borrowing the power of the ley lines to temper the body, perhaps only a madman like you could think of such a thing.”

From afar, Ji Shang remarked to the man chained by the dragon locks at the Formation Eye: “The little guy from the Tang Family just visited Lingxiao Sect.”

“Zeng!”

The golden body shattered the dragon chains, flashed out from the clashes of Yin and Yang ley lines, and picked up a robe from the ice throne to drape over himself.

“What did he say?”

“There is a way to control the ancient demon of Lin Chuan!”

“Oh?”

Ji Xie’s mouth curled up with a slight smile: “This little friend has brought us another fine gift.”

“It may not necessarily be a gift.”

Ji Shang sighed: “There might be something on the Blood Lord that the Yin-Yang Imperial Palace desperately wants. They asked Wang Fuling himself to oversee the Starry Sky Great Array, and now the Starry Sky Great Array’s barrier has sealed the entire Lin Chuan Plain. The stance of the Tianan Wang Family is quite clear!”

“Since the Tianan Wang Family is so eager for the Blood Lord, then I will fulfill their wish.”

The man sitting on the Mysterious Ice Throne laughed, “That chess piece that’s been maintained for years, it’s time to let it loose.”

…

In Danmu Town, Southern Tianan Continent

From the first time he saw Zhen Ping’er, he could sense the surging passion and yearning in her eyes.

But at that time, he naively thought it was the lust of a widow who had kept to her lonely chamber for too long, believing that the heat would fade once he calmed down and reflected.

Isn’t that the case in the world? When desire surges, one feels that nothing but the object of that desire will do, yet it all turns tasteless after the fact.

Returning from the escort mission, Old Master Xu should have felt the same indifference. That’s what he thought at the time.

Unexpectedly, the lady from the Zhen Clan secretly followed the escort team and approached Old Master Xu during one of his night watches.

“Let’s elope!”

Straightforward and unpretentious, faced with her resoluteness and earnest tone, Old Master Xu was genuinely stunned for a long while.
