He was waiting for the arrival of his chance at life.
The envoy had said, the thing he promised would arrive within seven days.
If counted by the days, today was the seventh day; if by two-hour periods, then there were just a few more two-hour periods left before the full seven days.
As long as he received what the envoy promised, he, Chi You, would be able to obtain a new life.
As for the Red Scale Tribe, given ti, they would definitely be reborn.
Of course, his original plan was for him to shake off control and attain rebirth, and for the Red Scale Tribe to do the sa.
Currently, it seed very unlikely for the Red Scale Tribe to see a rebirth.
But that wasn’t important.
As long as he could free himself from control and be reborn, that would be enough.

The city walls of the Red Scale Royal Court were quite well-constructed; unlike those earthen walls of the five major tribes ant to protect their people, the four-ter-high walls were quite magnificent.
But for Xu Jin, they were but a light leap to cross over.
He didn’t even need to use his Star Power.
They say a lion still uses all its might to catch a rabbit, and at this mont, Xu Jin was doing just that.
He didn’t brazenly charge in, but instead, once again, carefully and cautiously, he used invisibility to sneak in, searching for the mid to late period experts within the Royal Court.
After a round of searching, Xu Jin did not find any late period experts.
In the entire Royal Court, those who could pose a threat to Xu Jin were presently only seven people.
One at the Sixth Layer of Refining Star, two at the Fifth Layer, and four at the Fourth Layer.
As for those of the Red Scale Clan at the early period of Refining Star, Xu Jin deed them unworthy of his concern.
Now that his cultivation level had already broken through to the Peak of Star Casting, he could extinguish them with a flick of his fingers.
Lord of Red Scale, Chi You, was still very cautious.
Knowing patrols were useless and that he couldn’t spread his elite warriors thin.
Hence, all thirty-two Refining Star Realm elites were assembled around the ritual altar at the back of the palace.
Xu Jin had seen such altars before within other tribes, having asked Young Clan Chief Chi Xiang of the Fire Separation Tribe, who said that when they originally sealed the Star Gate, it was this very altar they used, with many Star Jades employed.
What Xu Jin was curious about was, with the Star Gate already sealed, what was this Lord of Red Scale, Chi You, still doing in front of the altar?
The night Xu Jin had made his kill, this Chi You was just sitting in front of this altar.
Was there so unknown use he was unaware of?
It looked like dispersing to assassinate was not feasible.
Xu Jin crept carefully, approaching the Refining Star Sixth Layer expert at an extrely slow pace.
When he got within ten ters, Xu Jin suddenly erupted.
A strong surge of Star Power fluctuated instantly.
Ten ters wasn’t a distance that required the Flying Star Step for Xu Jin, as he’d arrive in a blink, but he used it anyway.
At the mont Xu Jin’s figure appeared, he was already behind the Refining Star Sixth Layer expert, Star Radiance bursting instantly.
Before the expert could react, the Star Radiance had already blasted onto his back.
A punch with two and a half folds of Star Power in a Star Radiance Burst killed him.
Almost simultaneously, a Star Ring with a span of over fifteen ters fiercely rippled out.
Refining Star Realm warriors in every direction staggered, and those Red Scale Warriors at the early Refining Star level had their Body Protective Starlight shattered.
In the sa instant, Xu Jin flicked his ten fingers rapidly.
Star Arrows fell like rain.
Twenty-four early period Red Scale Clan elites died pitifully in rapid succession.
What was bizarre was that even faced with all that had transpired and the tragic death of the Red Scale elites, Lord of Red Scale Chi You, with a Cultivation Level as high as the Ninth Layer of the Star Refining Realm, didn’t make a single move.
He appeared completely indifferent to the deaths of his Red Scale elites.
Xu Jin instinctively felt sothing was amiss, but decided to first take care of the other enemies.
The next instant, Xu Jin burst forth toward another Refining Star Fifth Layer Red Scale elite, detonating two Star Radiance Bursts.
Two folds of Star Radiance burst, and that Refining Star Fifth Layer Red Scale elite was killed.
In that mont, tucked away in a corner at the edge of the altar, Prince Chi ng watched Xu Jin, who was less than ten ters away, suddenly pocket away the Red Scale Heart he had been holding and continuously channeling Star Power into.
Leaping out instantly, the mont he swung his arms full circle, a Fla Hamr congealed instantaneously, slamming onto Xu Jin’s back in the very mont of its manifestation.
The mont Prince Chi ng put away the Red Scale Heart, Xu Jin’s Mingji Star Pattern of his Lower Star Palace flashed briefly.
“A aura of Ninth Layer of Refining Star!”
The mont he realized this in his mind, Xu Jin felt sothing wrong at his back.
Instinctively, he conjured a Star Shield behind him and crazily poured in Star Power.
But just as the Star Shield had ford, the Fla Hamr wielded by Prince Chi ng crashed down on it.
The Star Shield shattered.
Xu Jin had preemptively infused three folds of Star Power into his Body Protective Starlight, which did hold up to the hamr blow.
The Body Protective Starlight rippled, scattering more than eighty percent.
But simultaneously, a fla blood under Xu Jin’s feet, instantly burning up the remaining Body Protective Starlight, though by then, Xu Jin had already burst into a Flying Star Step, preparing to widen the distance first.
The mont he moved, the second hamr had already slamd onto Xu Jin’s back.
Bang!
Xu Jin’s First Tier Star Weapon, the Croc Dragon Soft Armor, shattered bit by bit under the blow.
However, the Flying Star Step he activated dispersed so of the offensive force.
A trendous force of fla Star Power penetrated into Xu Jin’s body, causing him to violently spew blood from his mouth, but he managed to escape the perilous situation.
In the blink of an eye, he zipped out a hundred ters away.
Behind him, Prince Chi ng, whose Cultivation Level had broken through to the Ninth Layer of the Refining Star Realm, pursued him like a shadow.
With a thought, Xu Jin launched a series of Thunder Snakes.
Three consecutive Thunder Snakes blasted above Prince Chi ng’s head, shaking his Body Protective Starlight, and his speed abruptly dropped.
