"Huh? Another expert?" Qi Jun was greatly surprised. He thought no one was left inside, recalling what Ye Yuxong said earlier and hearing Zhao Xing address himself this way, Qi Jun asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"
"You fool, Ye Yuxong is truly loyal! Let ask you, who ordered you to dispatch troops?!" Zhao Xing imdiately took control of the situation.
"It was the Huan You King... Who exactly are you!" Qi Jun shouted sternly: "Stop pretending, Ye Yuxong killed Marquis Changwu, and I dispatched troops as per the Huan You King’s direct order! What’s wrong with that?"
"Who exactly are you? If what you say is true, let know imdiately, or I will attack at once!"
"Qi Jun, you are quite arrogant. When I was on brotherly terms with Prince Liang, you were nowhere to be seen, securing rivets. Is this how you recruit talents for him?"
"My identity is top secret, and this mission is also top secret."
"Do you really want to know? Hmph, how many heads do you have for chopping?"
"You must have heard of Ye Yuxong’s reputation. If he wanted to break through to the Second Grade, he could easily ask the court, and it would be a cinch. Why would he run here to break through?"
"Use your head! Why exactly is this happening?"
Ye Yuxong looked at Zhao Xing and couldn’t help but be stunned.
Brother, you really know how to act.
Indeed, Qi Jun was sohow intimidated, and ten breaths had passed, yet he hadn’t moved.
The main reason was Zhao Xing and Ye Yuxong coordinated so well on the spot.
Ye Yuxong appearing here to break through to the Second Grade was already very peculiar.
Dongze County is the gateway to the Military Realm and a strategic location.
What was he doing here without reason?
And how could he suddenly kill Marquis Changwu... And who exactly is this mysterious expert, who managed to keep Ye Yuxong alive in such a large formation.
From a thousand miles away, Qi Jun couldn’t help but rub his bald head, his gaze filled with confusion.
Could it really be a secret mission?
Of a level so high even he couldn’t know about it?
No, if I don’t know, I could just ask the Huan You King, couldn’t I?
Surely he must know?
Zhao Xing pressed advantage, cald his tone and said: "Qi Jun, you almost ruined the grand plan of mine, but there’s still a chance to make ands. I’ll give you a secret code, quickly report it to the Huan You King."
"You might not recognize it, but he surely will."
"But..."
"Enough nonsense, rember it quickly!" Zhao Xing ordered.
"Yes, yes."
On Zhao Xing’s Earth Spirit Barrier, the Earth Elent Power emitted waves of fluctuations, slowly flashing a series of symbols and patterns.
"Did you rember it?" Zhao Xing asked indifferently.
"Yes, I’ve rembered it." Qi Jun’s tone unconsciously beca respectful.
"Quickly report it to the Huan You King!"
"Yes."
In Yuanming County, inside an underground chanical City, Qi Jun imdiately found a water basin.
A dark face appeared in the water basin right away.
"Qi Jun, is the target dead?" the Huan You King asked.
"Your Highness, the situation has changed," Qi Jun said, "Ye Yuxong seems to have defected to us, accompanied by a mysterious expert."
"Oh?" the Huan You King asked suspiciously, "A mysterious expert?"
"Yes, he says his identity is top secret, his actions are also top secret, and even claims to be on brotherly terms with Your Majesty."
"Nonsense!" the Huan You King mocked coldly, "I’ve never heard of such a mission."
"Quickly eliminate Ye Yuxong and return to Seven Souls Pass. The court’s reinforcents are about to arrive; they’re just stalling for ti!"
"Your Highness, he seems to truly be one of us, and the mysterious man gave a secret code, saying once you see it, you’ll know."
Qi Jun then released his Primordial Energy, replicating Zhao Xing’s demonstration exactly.
The Huan You King was skeptical at first, but as he watched, he fell silent.
Because the secret code given by Zhao Xing wasn’t fake!
Zhao Xing had mingled in Prince Liang’s camp in his previous life; after Prince Liang’s defeat, many years later those secret archives were unlocked by Zhao Xing too.
Naturally, he was aware of so secret operations carried out by Prince Liang’s camp.
As the Huan You King finished looking, he couldn’t help but be a bit shocked.
Because this was indeed the start code for the top-secret operation "Stealing the Sky Plan."
This plan was a subversion plan to send certain experts into the court’s camp as internal espionage.
The Huan You King himself was a beneficiary of this plan!
And now this series of ssages, except for the executors and target figures being different, the rest of the codes had a lot of similarities!
Of course, there were many inconsistencies too.
The opponent used so obsolete codes.
But the problem is, the Huan You King didn’t know whether these codes were reactivated.
Because he didn’t have the authority to know all the details; this was plotted by high-level experts of the Xuantian Sect beside Prince.
The Huan You King considered for a mont and said: "Follow these instructions..."
Qi Jun was startled after hearing, then cupped his hands and said: "Yes."
...
In the Earth Spirit Barrier, Ye Yuxong noticed the silence above, his heartbeat quickening a bit.
He hadn’t expected the improvised play with Zhao Xing to actually have an effect.
After a mont, Qi Jun’s voice rose again.
"Bastard, you dare deceive !"
Ye Yuxong slightly shook his head, indeed such a trick could only stall for a while.
Though being able to stall even a mont was a miracle.
Normally, the opponent should have acted by now.
Zhao Xing thought so too, as he was not sure if this would work, having difficulty rembering the exact timing, those codes and symbols were haphazardly pieced together by him.
Whether it would work or not, was entirely up to luck.
When he was about to give up, Qi Jun’s voice ceased without following up.
After a brief silence, Qi Jun’s voice was transmitted back to the Earth Spirit Barrier: "Sir, please give instructions on how I can cooperate to salvage the situation."
