Chapter 1303: Chapter 1283: Mixed Reactions

"Beep—"

Outskirts of Capital City, on the rooftop of a villa.

Staring at the darkened phone screen, Ye Huan frowned slightly.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt something was amiss.

Xiao Yu pleading for Empress’s rescue was utterly normal, after all, she is Empress’s adoptive mother and surely has some affection for her.

A sudden realization and the desire to save Empress’s life can be explained.

However, should her words be completely trusted?

Ye Huan placed a question mark in his mind.

At this moment.

"Ring-ring."

The phone rang.

Caller: Apollo!

Ye Huan quickly picked up.

"Ye Huan, I’m in charge of tracking the Divine Guard from the Divine Hall, and I’ve obtained some quite significant and critical intelligence!"

Apollo’s tone was extremely urgent, "They sent Xiao Yu and Empress to an island called ’Celestial’ in the Pacific Ocean then returned to Japan, but then, the people from Sequence transferred Empress elsewhere alone!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Huan’s face suddenly darkened: "Where was she transferred to?"

"Guatana Island!"

"It’s an island located seventy-eight nautical miles north of Celestial Island, covering an area of only three thousand five hundred square meters!"

"Using surveillance satellites, I discovered that while the surface appears as an island, Sequence has hollowed out the underground, constructing a heavy-duty laboratory!"

"In short, both Celestial and Guatana are important bases for Sequence!"

Apollo stated.

"I understand." Ye Huan finished speaking and shifted gears, telling Apollo about Xiao Yu’s call for Empress’s rescue.

Apollo fell silent for a moment, then analyzed with a heavy voice, "Ye Huan, do you think Sequence might intend for you to receive the news about Empress’s crisis through Xiao Yu’s rescue call, thus plunging you into a state of extreme anxiety, leading to loss of rational thinking and rushing to Celestial Island?"

"I was previously doubting whether this was indeed the case."

"After hearing the intelligence you provided, my doubts were completely dispelled."

"There’s no need to think about it; Sequence surely set a trap on Celestial Island, just waiting for me to fall into it. This is a fishing enforcement conspiracy!"

"What do you plan to do?" Apollo stated the key issue: "Currently, Empress is entirely in the hands of Sequence, her life is under immense threat. If you want to rescue her, you must quickly come up with a rescue plan!"

"I know!"

Ye Huan swiftly made arrangements: "Apollo, keep your personnel on standby for now, otherwise large-scale action on your end might alert the traitor Athena to our movements."

"Afterwards, I will contact Muses, Gaia, Ares, and other Celestial Gods, to secretly deploy their most elite Divine Generals and Divine Guards to infiltrate Guatana Island with me, waiting for an opportunity to rescue Empress!"

"Furthermore, I think Sequence didn’t only contact me!"

"They surely contacted the Di Family too!"

"This time Sequence sent Di Asura to sow discord, not only achieving self-inflicted killing within Huaxia’s Ancient Martial Realm, weakening the overall strength of the realm, but also having Di Asura deliver the Di family’s lifeline—Empress into Sequence’s hands, making the Di family anxious. Sequence wouldn’t miss the chance to further weaken the Di family’s overall strength by exploiting their desperation."

"I speculate they will repeat their old trick, using Xiao Yu or Di Asura’s connections to reach the Di Family, thereby hooking and violently attacking the Di Family."

Ye Huan’s analysis was very reasonable.

In fact, Sequence did just that!

Dragon Gate, Di Family side hall.

After receiving Xiao Yu’s rescue call, Di Lunhui immediately convened a family meeting for the Di Family!

Everyone in the Di Family who was still capable of action gathered in the side hall.

Seated in the principal position on the high-backed chair, Di Lunhui’s expression was icy: "Ladies and gentlemen, how do you perceive this situation? Is Xiao Yu’s plea for help and the provided address trustworthy?"

"I believe it’s not trustworthy!" Di Yuntian replied coldly beside him, "Patriarch, Xiao Yu has already betrayed us and harbors deep hatred towards both me and the Di Family. How could she possibly, after destroying the hope of the Di Family, come to us for rescuing that very hope? I see, they are just using Empress as bait to lure us into a trap! Actually, Sequence has already set a sure-kill arrangement in secrecy, attempting to annihilate all our vital forces in the Di Family!"

Di Lunhui sipped the steaming tea coldly, nodding subtly, "Reasonable analysis."

Members of the Di Family nodded in agreement, feeling that Di Yuntian’s words indeed made sense.

Only Di Asura, a flicker of undetectable anxiousness flashed in his eyes.

Forcing to remain calm, he spoke, "Father, personally, I believe Xiao Yu can be trusted!"

"Reason?" For some reason, Di Lunhui’s attitude towards Di Asura became inexplicably cool.

"Father, I’ve been married to Xiao Yu for nearly thirty years and know full well she is a kind, gentle, very virtuous wife, and a good mother who always puts children first and loves Empress deeply."

"From child to adult, she couldn’t bear Empress receiving even a little grievance, she treated Empress completely as her own child."

"Previously, due to her hatred towards me and the Di Family, she colluded with Ye Huan, sending Empress to Sequence. How did Ye Huan deceive her? No need to think, surely promised Xiao Yu even if Empress was sent to Sequence, they would generously entertain them as honored guests. However, these were all Sequence’s tricks!"

"They aim to possess Empress, not only to quench the hope of the Di Family but also intending to seize our years of genetic research. Therefore, they’ll certainly hurry to conduct human body research on Empress!"

"Xiao Yu realized she was deceived, knowing Empress was about to be dissected and skinned by Sequence, she would surely regret immensely, fall into extreme agony, unwilling for her daughter to be harmed, thus a sudden recovery, trying ways to contact us, begging us to rescue Empress, isn’t this highly possible?"

Di Asura’s analysis was impeccably sound!

Strongly argued his conclusion from multiple perspectives, including Xiao Yu’s character, personality, and humanity!

Much more reasonable than Di Yuntian’s analysis!

Even Di Yuntian nodded twice after hearing, realizing his analysis was too one-sided, Di Asura’s thoughts seemed more logical.

Di Lunhui’s expression fluctuated, seeming to ponder who was right.

At this moment.

A black-robed man suddenly burst into the side hall!

This person was a spy from Dragon Gate’s Intelligence Hall!

"Reporting to Patriarch, the Intelligence Hall responsible for tracking Xiao Yu and the Divine Guard’s team has sent word, Sequence transferred Empress to another island after retrieving Xiao Yu..."

Before the spy finished speaking, the faces of some members inside the hall changed directly.

Especially Di Asura and the Intelligence Hall Master, Di Wuye.

Di Wuye lashed out and interrupted the spy fiercely, "What are you doing? Did you forget Intelligence Hall rules? All critical intelligence should first be delivered to the Hall Master, then analyzed to determine the authenticity, before reporting to the Sect Leader! If false intelligence leads to misjudgment from the Sect Leader, who takes responsibility?!"

Di Wuye was undoubtedly an authority in the Dragon Gate’s Intelligence Hall.

The spy was terrified by his shouting, immediately kneeling on the ground in fear, "Hall Master, I intended to report to you, but you weren’t in the Intelligence Hall, and given the urgent situation, I... I directly came here to report to the Patriarch, please forgive me!"

"Get lost, I’ll handle this intelligence and verify its authenticity..."

Di Wuye ordered coldly.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Di Lunhui smacked the armrest of the high-backed chair forcefully, signaling the room to quiet down, especially gesturing Di Wuye to shut up!

"Patriarch, I..."

Di Wuye appeared anxious, wanting to say more.

But a chilling glance from Di Lunhui made him shiver all over, causing him to keep silent obediently.

The various reactions from those who heard the spy’s message were clear to Di Lunhui, but he showed no emotion and immediately sternly ordered the spy, "Continue!"
