"In my opinion, it’s better if we just leave as Zhao Youting suggested. Us six fighting against this prefecture is not really a wise move, especially considering the great power that Mingjiang Prefecture already has tonight."
"Retreat for what? We should take advantage before Mingjiang Prefecture completely rises and attack together."
Among the six, a division had already ford, with so advocating peace and others advocating battle.
However, Hulu Taoist felt that "advocating peace" would lose the opportunity to capture Zhou Xuan—Zhou Xuan’s growth is incredibly fast, missing the chance today would make capturing him much harder.
But, advocating battle—yet unable to seize the timing.
These seasoned veterans, compared to the young disciples, better understand what "one wrong step, hell or heaven" ans, hence they possess more stability and less impulsive vigor.
They are always seeking a "certain victory" situation, and so opportunities for battle are therefore missed.
"Timing, oh timing."
While Hulu Taoist was lanting in his heart, suddenly, a scolding voice ca from outside the window,
"Such a large sect, gathering the strength of an entire faction, traveling thousands of miles only to huddle inside a carriage for secret talks, unable to reach a conclusion; truly pathetic."
"Wasting my strategic mind."
Faced with the scolding, Hulu Taoist imdiately turned his head, asking through the curtain, "Who?"
"Is my voice that hard to distinguish?"
As soon as the words fell, a gem-like token drilled into the compartnt—it was the Stargazing Token.
The Stargazing Token still bore the faint footprint of Hulu Taoist.
"Earth God?"
Hulu Taoist then reacted, but—by listening to the voice, it didn’t quite match Earth’s sound in the Stargazing Token.
Of course, it didn’t match, Zhou Xuan had never t Earth Child, he only t the master at Mr. Ye’s Tangkou—Earth Child.
He used his Perception, attached to the sound on the Stargazing Token, to mimic Earth Child’s sinister and ghostly tone, then added so of his own imagination, creating this voice.
Speaking of which, when Zhou Xuan went to Mr. Ye’s Tangkou, he discovered a pattern, the path of cultivating the Divine Dao might be sowhat different, all of Mr. Ye’s people spoke with a ghostly feeling.
Capturing this characteristic prevents Hulu Taoist from becoming completely suspicious.
As long as he’s not completely suspicious, Zhou Xuan has a basis for deception.
What’s the most important thing in deception?
Montum!
Zhou Xuan imdiately commanded the Stargazing Token to heavily strike Hulu Taoist in the face,
"Slap!"
Hulu Taoist wasn’t prepared, but even if he was, without confirming that the other party was a fake Earth, he wouldn’t dare dodge.
"Trash, ordered to capture Zhou Xuan, here you are, what are you doing? Issuing challenges, is Zhou Xuan soone who blatantly displays his cards and goes head-to-head with you?"
"Earth, I am waiting for an opportunity."
Hulu Taoist felt sowhat aggrieved but also suspicious—was this Earth Child fake or real?
If it’s real? The voice doesn’t quite resemble, the manner of speech doesn’t completely fit,
If it’s fake? Can soone fake such montum? Directly striking with the token as soon as they get the chance.
"If Zhou Xuan ca to pretend to be a ghost, it’s possible—this person is truly cunning, but now... he’s telling stories."
The voice telling stories proves Zhou Xuan’s best alibi.
"No matter how capable this person is, he can’t have two mouths, telling stories while pretending to be Earth."
Hulu Taoist contemplated, but actually, he had another thod to verify authenticity, which was to hold the Stargazing Token and use his strong montum to sense the token’s vigor.
Yet he dared not.
Despite the fact that he had just trampled upon the token repeatedly, and spoken several tis about shedding "Earth’s" constraints,
once accustod to being a dog, it’s like this—gossiping behind the owner’s back is fine, but when truly eting the owner, the tail is tucked in, afraid to bark, displaying obedience.
"You’ve already fallen into Zhou Xuan’s trap, it’s clear strategy, covert action."
The Stargazing Token sent out scoldings again.
"Trapped?"
"You issued a challenge, then waited on the sidelines, tell , what are you waiting for?"
"Earth, I am waiting for Mingjiang Prefecture to be rebuilt, as soon as the Prefecture City is rebuilt, it will form a ’Spirit Realm,’ then, the six senior brothers can drag him into the Spirit Realm, unable to borrow the city’s power, we cut him down like a dog!"
"You’re thinking of the plots one by one! While you’re waiting, Zhou Xuan is too, do you know what he’s waiting for?"
The Stargazing Token sent out anger, saying, "You and your brothers, release all your Perception, jointly use Dun Jia Sect’s thods, to divine a hexagram, explore what this Xie Family’s Cave is hiding!
Once determined, then talk to , you incompetent fools, it’s truly painful."
The Stargazing Token leapt once more, striking Hulu Taoist’s face with another slap.
"Slap!"
Hulu Taoist was flushed and hot-headed, furious, yet dared not act out, instead calling the rest of the brothers for a secret discussion.
"Earth isn’t stationed at Capital Mansion, he’s overseeing the battle."
"Senior brother, is that really Earth Child?"
"Can’t tell true from false."
Hulu Taoist gritted his teeth audibly, forcing out a sentence: "But he told us to release our Perception and see what in the Heaven and Earth of this Xie Family’s Cave is hiding; shouldn’t be wrong."
"Then let’s release our Perception and see, if it indeed reveals sothing interesting, it will prove that it is indeed Earth Child."
The six brothers simultaneously released their Perception, six turtle shells began to jump continuously.
