Chapter 297: Chapter 222: Sincere Cooperation (Long Chapter)_3

She calmly revealed a piece of information.

Only the Vermilion Bird Demon King knew about the death of the Black Tortoise Demon King; even close confidants like Shee Anqi and Shee Anrong were not informed by Tan Qingxue.

Because if other members of the Demon Race knew that there existed such a power behind Great Li, then perhaps there wouldn’t be any need to fight; the Demon Race would collapse from within, and many would likely surrender willingly.

But to Li An, she did not hide anything.

Li An knew that Shangguan Shengxian was strong, but upon hearing about such a war record, he still felt chills in his heart!

So swift, even though Li An had already set up a scheme, according to his plan, Shangguan Shengxian should have returned to Yan Country before reaching the Celestial Killer Mountains...

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Shengxian had already gone to the Celestial Killer Mountains and killed a Demon King before heading to Yan Country!

So powerful that even the Demon Emperor’s War Sword was destroyed...

"Lord Lin, do you have any strategy to deal with this person?" she asked.

Li An nodded solemnly, "I have a plan, but it requires Your Majesty’s assistance—"

"Speak freely."

...

After a long time.

Li An finished speaking one by one, and the discussion was finalized.

Tan Qingxue agreed to everything, not even asking an extra question.

Li An couldn’t help but say, "Your Majesty, don’t you want to ask about the reason for my actions?"

Tan Qingxue smiled, "Lin An, in this life-and-death situation, we should both be honest with each other, shouldn’t we?"

"If we continue to hide or conceal, when we’re dead, all that will be left is regret."

Li An respectfully said, "Your Majesty is right."

He exited the tent.

In the empty tent, Tan Qingxue let out a faint sigh.

...

Li An left the Demon Race army directly and headed toward the Celestial Killer Mountains.

The Celestial Killer Mountains had now become ruins, and Great Li’s focus was already on Xiling, so it was just the right time to return to the Celestial Killer Mountains to retrieve what he needed.

He was very cautious, not going himself, but instead waiting in an uninhabited forest in the Yue Kingdom, then sending out three puppets to the Celestial Killer Mountains—as they accompanied Shee Anqi’s army conquering territories, he refined three puppets again.

No other reason, as it’s a critical time now, oftentimes he couldn’t risk himself.

Who knows if Shangguan Shengxian would lie in wait?

Moreover, he had a meticulous plan for the actions of the three puppets. After the first one obtained what he needed, it would exit the Celestial Killer Mountains, head directly to the "Moon River," throw the Lock Spirit Box into the water, and then head towards Great Li’s capital—essentially going to its death.

The Lock Spirit Box would drift downstream, while the other two puppets would wait downstream. When the Lock Spirit Box passed their area, the two puppets would carry two empty Lock Spirit Boxes and leave in different directions.

The Lock Spirit Box floating in the river was difficult to track, and the enemy couldn’t trace it. After three transformations, even if someone was tracking, they would be confused and most likely believe the item was with one of the puppets, thus following all three.

But they wouldn’t think that the real Lock Spirit Box was still drifting down; Li An was still downstream, ready to intercept the drifting Lock Spirit Box.

It could be said that Li An spared no effort!

But he believed all of this was necessary.

... 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

He waited downstream of the Moon River. Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the net he set intercepted the Lock Spirit Box!

Safely obtained!

At the same time, he sensed that two of the puppets had self-destructed.

Clearly, they encountered danger!

Indeed, the Great Li Empire had made arrangements on this side of the Celestial Killer Mountains.

Li An, holding the Lock Spirit Box, immediately left, swiftly heading to Xiling—

...

"Master, we’ve just received a secret report, there has been movement on the side of the Celestial Killer Mountains, and two of Li An’s puppets have been discovered."

"He must have returned there to retrieve something."

In Great Li, the White Tiger Empress promptly reported to Shangguan Shengxian.

Shangguan Shengxian’s delicate eyebrows twitched slightly, and an inexplicable fury arose within her.

She suddenly realized that she had been played by Li An once again—

She had thought that after Li An killed the heroes of the Immortal Talent Hall, he had already fled.

Now it seemed, he had hidden something in that place, right under her nose.

"Damn it!"

She lightly gritted her teeth. After having maneuvered through the Spirit Realm for so many years, yet she was repeatedly thwarted in this mere Emperor Origin Realm...

But she quickly calmed down, and after contemplating for a long time, a light suddenly flashed in her eyes:

"What he hid over there... I understand now, the Blood of Myriad Demons!"

"It seems you will definitely go to Xiling, hehe, what you did to me at the Celestial Killer Mountains, I’ll return tenfold at Xiling—"

...

Good night.
