Chapter 1607: Chapter 154–155 Towards Plan_2

“Frankly speaking, if the trial of Myriad Laws Realm wasn’t initiated by the Longevity Taoist Monarch, although he nominally presides over the Shenxiao Lineage, with the Taoist Monarch here, he cannot defy the will of the Taoist Monarch. Seeing them targeting the strong ones of the Shenxiao lineage, he would absolutely need to prepare plans for a vengeance.”

“However, the Taoist Monarch has shown no slight indication, treating these issues as if they are just part of the rules, thus silence is his only possible reaction, making no responses.”

“Of course, it’s a tit for tat, as the Jade Emperor Lineage targets the Shenxiao Lineage, the powerhouses of Shenxiao Lineage also start to team up against the Jade Emperor Lineage.”

“It’s essential to recognize that the powerhouses of the Shenxiao Lineage are stronger. Perhaps initially they were isolated and targeted, but as more strong figures from the Shenxiao Lineage gathered, the encirclement by the Jade Emperor side no longer worked.”

“Moreover, standing often by the river makes it impossible not to wet your shoes, walking on dark paths often definitely leads to encounters with ghosts.”

“Although the Jade Emperor side was prepared, the divine power skills are not invincible, and the strong ones from the Shenxiao Lineage are not weaklings either. They quickly discovered and cracked the opponent’s secret techniques, and even used them as bait to eliminate quite a few of their powerful enemies.”

“Seems like it’s quite lively recently, huh?” Wan Fayi sneered, then his gaze turned cold: “Since they are courting death themselves, let’s just oblige them.”

“After hearing all this from his junior brother, Wan Fayi naturally felt anger arising.”

“Disciples of the Shenxiao lineage are from a top immortal sect like Shenxiao Sect and have the support of Longevity Taoist Monarch, the number one being in heaven and earth, which fostered their domineering character.”

“Although they do not usually bully others, when provoked, they will definitely not compromise or retreat.”

“Unquestionably, this situation is precisely what they encountered. Indeed, they also harbored ideas against the Jade Emperor Lineage, but ultimately, isn’t it the Jade Emperor’s ambition that caused this, aiming to destroy the interests of the Shenxiao Lineage?”

“Now all beings in this universe have a hopeful future and are in a relatively fair environment that allows them to further their cultivation.”

“But the insatiable ambition of the Jade Emperor aims to break this wonderful situation, disrupt the original balance, devastate everything, and pull more beings into the conflict.”

“As one of the great powers of this world, the Shenxiao Sect enjoys respect from many cultivators, hence naturally, they have to bear the corresponding responsibilities to stop the Jade Emperor’s ambitions; it’s their undeniable duty.”

“Have you located the people from the Jade Emperor?” Wan Fayi asked indifferently.”

“Not yet,” his junior brother lightly shook his head.

“They were eager to find traces of the Jade Emperor lineage, but the opponents indeed were cautious, managing to slip away every time they were almost located.”

“…” Wan Fayi remained silent, somewhat disappointed but also finding it expected, and he did not blame his junior brothers.”

“Even though they look down on the Jade Emperor lineage somewhat, it is undeniable that the Jade Emperor lineage’s strength is extremely formidable, surely one of the notable great powers in this world.”

“Being such a power with many strong ones, the skills precisely targeted at Shenxiao Lineage developed by them aren’t so easily completely decipherable.”

“However, senior brother, we don’t need to specifically track them; we can just wait for them to come to us.” another junior brother whispered.”

“Tell me more?” Wan Fayi nodded, signaling his counterpart to continue on whatever strategy he might have.

“They only plot for the Great Law Decree Technique, and if we seize it first, we will undeniably hold the crucial advantage. Whether we decide to leave or set a trap, it would all be under our control, wouldn’t it?” the junior fellow laughed as he spoke.

“However, where exactly the Great Law Decree Technique is hidden, we do not know!” Wan Fayi frowned as he spoke.

The Great Law Decree Technique was sent away by the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder in the final moments, and then hidden somewhere within the Myriad Laws Realm.

Although it was likely that when the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder sent his last message, he informed Elder Yu Zhenzi about the location of the Great Law Decree Technique, strangely, there wasn’t the slightest intention from Ancestral Master Yu Zhenzi to share that information.

I remember someone had once asked Ancestral Master Yu Zhenzi, but he did not tell them. Instead, he said this piece of information wouldn’t be revealed to anyone, or maybe it’s also part of this trial.

Thus, this is where their helplessness lies; if they knew directly about the whereabouts of the Great Law Decree Technique, they wouldn’t need to waste much time. They could just seize the technique first and then proverbially ‘invite the king into the urn to capture the turtle.’

“Although we don’t know where the Great Law Decree Technique is, neither does the side of the Jade Emperor. Everyone is on an equal footing information-wise. But what do you think, senior brother, if we release the information, would the people from the side of the Jade Emperor be attracted?” The junior fellow’s face revealed a look of confidence.

Indeed, they did not know the location of the Great Law Decree Technique, because Ancestral Master Yu Zhenzi was not willing to tell them.

However, the side of the Jade Emperor doesn’t know this; they might instinctively believe that in the end, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder must have transmitted the whereabouts of the Great Law Decree Technique to them. Thus, Shenxiao Lineage must have more clues.

So, at this time, if the Jade Emperor Lineage hasn’t found the Great Law Decree Technique yet, and news from the Shenxiao Lineage about obtaining the technique spreads, they will inevitably be drawn here. After all, they would rather believe it exists than ignore such news.

In such a situation, there’s no need to waste time looking for the other party; they can easily prepare and wait at ease for the arrival of the Jade Emperor Lineage.

“This plan sounds good, but it’s filled with uncertainties and may very well become uncontrollable,” another person said with a frown.

The plan sounds flawless, leveraging the Jade Emperor Lineage’s need for the Great Law Decree Technique to lure them.

After all, this matter is crucial, and the Jade Emperor is determined to secure the technique. The Jade Emperor Lineage cannot afford any slip-ups, so they can only give their all.

But therein lies great danger; once the news is disseminated, not only will people from the Jade Emperor Lineage come, many other powerful figures will also appear, and the powerful from the Shenxiao Lineage will naturally converge here as well.

With so many powerful individuals gathering, the ensuing battle would be even more intense than the current one, and even Wan Fayi might not be certain of controlling the situation.

While it’s intended to set a trap for the Jade Emperor Lineage, if their power is too overwhelming and the situation unmanageable, it’s far more likely we might end up as bait ourselves.

“After all, the Great Law Decree Technique is a top-tier Divine Power; such a thing is enough to attract many powerful individuals to make a move. They might not need it for themselves, but they likely won’t want to see us obtain it easily,” Wan Fayi mused.

Indeed, the Shenxiao Sect is a Top Immortal Sect, but there are so many top Immortal Sects in this world, and without the Ancestral Master making a move, they have no advantage over the others, and might even be slightly inferior.

This undoubtedly made Wan Fayi hesitate about whether to proceed with the plan, because if it really causes a huge impact, attracting many powerful individuals, then even he might not be able to control the situation.

Dealing with single individuals or a few powerful individuals might be manageable, but once it evolves into a struggle between groups representing various forces, it means unless one’s strength is overwhelmingly superior, individual bravery will decide the real winner.
