Chapter 852: A Small Chance

This person had a smile on his face, there was no dejection from being defeated and chased out of the Cloud World.

Hong Jiuchen felt that it was slightly weird but he couldn’t ask anymore, shaking his head, “So it is Brother Tan! You shouldn’t feel dejected since Zong Shou really came up with great schemes. He spent just a few months here and was able to turn everything on its head, to chase both you and I out. After the matter, he didn’t give us any chance at all, what can we do? This time, I have totally lost and have nothing to say…”

“You have nothing to say?”

Tanjing laughed, walking into the hall and sitting down, “However, I am unwilling! In my eyes, we might still have a chance! I am also unwilling to walk away like a dog that had just lost its home!”

Hong Jiuchen gave him a weird look, his eyes filled with confusion.

At this moment, they had only 27 Spaceships as well as the 800,000 Dao Soldiers who they brought out of Yuanlian World.

Be it personally attacking or fighting on the battlefield, they had no chance of winning against Zong Shou.

So, what could they do apart from backing off?

As for Fuyue and Mufang, they were already determined to kick them out of Yuanlian World, they also wouldn’t give up the meat that was by their mouth.

There was totally no possibility for their few sides to cooperate with one another.

He still adjusted his sitting posture and made a face like he was eager to listen.

“5 days ago, a few factionless cultivators were able to witness a Celestial Realm Cultivator battle!”

Flatly saying this, he had a smile with indiscernible meaning on his face, “One of them was the Lu Family Lu Wushuang! You definitely can’t guess who the other person was!”

“Lu Wushuang? Why would this person be here?”

Hong Jiuchen frowned. He had heard about Lu Wushuang before. He was one of the most outstanding talents from the Lu Family in the past hundreds of years.

He is a General for them now, leading a million troops to conquer dozens of worlds. He had crossed swords with Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty and almost lost in his life.

Who knows how many people had fallen under his spear?

This was why this person’s name spread far and wide.

Wasn’t this person under the Lu Family Xuanhua Country Ruler’s charge? Why was he here and fighting with another person?

Thinking about Tanjing’s tone and expression, he instantly understood something, “Is the other person Zong Shou?”

“Brother Hong’s mind is really sharp. That person is indeed Zong Shou!”

Tanjing nodded slightly and scoffed coldly, “There is nothing we can do to him but in this region, there is someone who could. This person has Lu Family Blood and is listed within the Direct Bloodline Name List and has a chance to take over as the Sky Burning Saint Emperor. In the past, he killed Lu Wushuang’s lover which was why they became enemies. This time, he is determined to kill Zong Shou which is why he will return…”

Hong Jiuchen couldn’t help but take in a deep breath.

“Then, what was the outcome?”

He wasn’t able to hide the anxiety in his voice.

“I heard that after they clashed a few times, Zong Shou instantly used Instant Space Techniques to escape. Afterward, no one knew where the two of them went.”

Tanjing said while his lips curled up and he smiled, “Although Zong Shou is only Spirit Realm, his strength can’t be underestimated. However, no matter how outstandingly talented he was, so what? The two of them were a few realms apart. Lu Wushuang is also nearly invincible in the same grade, so even if he could escape, how long could he escape for? At most 10 days to half a month and he would die…”

“This is indeed a chance!”

Hong Jiuchen stood up, pacing about the hall. After a moment, he stopped in his tracks.

“It is still too risky! What if this person doesn’t die? If both of us broke the rules and he lives, he would definitely claim our lives. You personally saw what happened to Old Poison that day, slightly breaking the rules and he was killed immediately. Although Zong Shou’s death has nothing to do with us, to choose such a sensitive moment to act, even if Dragon Shadow can’t do anything about the Lu Family, he might shift his anger to us!”

They knew that even if Old Poison wanted to suppress and control Yuanlian World, he didn’t think about doing anything to Zong Shou.

He just wanted to push him back in defeat…

“Moreover, the Buddhist Faction, Sword Sect, and Common People’s Path. The former is famous in the worlds and the latter two aren’t weak either.”

“The three of them are prepared to fight for the Heaven Opening Treasure in the Cloud World, where will they have extra strength to bother with anything else? Even if there are conflicts, they will just bear with it! As for Dragon Shadow…”

When he said this, Tanjing nodded his head solemnly, “Which is why we have to wait a year! If this person doesn’t return in a year, it will be when the two of us strike. At that time, no matter what, Zong Shou should be dead. When we act at that time, nothing will happen. Even Mufang and Fuyue won’t let go of such a chance!”

Hong Jiuchen frowned and entered deep thought.

He was impressed and tempted by what Tanjing said, however, what if Zong Shou was lucky to escape?

He immediately shook his head. Even if this person returned in a year, the dust would have settled. So what if Zong Shou was overpowered, what could he do?

As long as he had Yuanlian World, he was confident in persuading God Realm Cultivators to help him out!

“It seems like the consumption for the Instant Space Teleportation is a little high. However, it is impossible to modify and change it…”

Within a secluded part of the Xuwang Ocean, Zong Shou hid in the Royal Demon God Shuttle and was frowning.

He grumbled. In his heart, he knew that it wasn’t because his Three Thousand Star Falling Technique had any flaws.

It was just that the strength of a Peak Celestial Realm Expert had far exceeded his expectations.

At this moment, 3 months had passed since his battle with Lu Wushuang.

One of them chased and one fled, they were already hundreds of worlds away from Yuanlian World.

At the start, Zong Shou was confident in getting away from Lu Wushuang.

However, once a month passed, that confidence had totally collapsed.

This person traveled in the void and didn’t bother about cultivating at all.

Even if he was wary and was unable to catch up, he was still able to keep a safe distance and follow behind.

It lasted for a full month and he didn’t cultivate at all. However, the internal energy and Soul Power was still full and it seemed endless.

As for him, after a month of teleportation, he slowly became exhausted.

Even with a miraculous technique like the Heaven Swallowing Energy Conversion Technique, it was still not enough.

Sometimes, he needed to rely on this Xuwang Ocean to hide his tracks to try and recover.

He was being forced to modify the original Three Thousand Star Falling Technique.

He had to reduce the consumption for the technique to the minimum.

He shook his head slightly as he placed an Instant Space Dragon Pellet in front of his body.

A bit of Sky Burning Flame started burning to refine it.

It modified the structure of the Dragon Pellet, destroying some of the useless ability marks within and then adding the newly comprehended Dao to restructure the Spiritual Formations within.

Such that it was able to merge into one with the stars of the void space in his Soul Ocean to become a new Star Dao Seed.

The entire process took several days.
