Chapter 1556: Chapter 1556 Digging a Pit for the Heavenly Alliance?

”Christopher, where are you planning to go next?”

”Back to the Celestial Palace.”

Alfred Weaver replied, ”Maggie Fitzgerald has already personally led people to assassinate me, meaning the Heavenly Alliance knows I am here. They will surely want to seize the opportunity to kill me. If I stay, it will be very dangerous.”

”Alright, I’ll escort you out of the Skyland Continent.”

Ellen Stone answered straightforwardly, ”At the same time, I will announce to the outside world that the Crystal Palace supports the Celestial Palace. Anyone who opposes the Celestial Palace will be an enemy of the Crystal Palace.”

Alfred Weaver was greatly delighted, ”With your word, Uncle Stone, those ambitious folks will surely have to weigh their plans again!”

Ellen Stone laughed, ”Do you want to dig another pit for the Heavenly Alliance?”

Alfred Weaver’s eyes lit up, ”What ingenious plan does Uncle Stone have?”

Ellen Stone laughed, ”It’s hardly ingenious; you simply leave the Crystal Palace, and I will quietly hide behind. Since the Heavenly Alliance is aware of your stay at the Crystal Palace, they will certainly send someone to keep an eye on you...”

Alfred Weaver got it instantly, ”When they send people to assassinate us, Uncle Stone will lead a force to attack them, delivering a heavy blow!”

”Exactly!”

Ellen Stone replied decisively, ”People of the Heavenly Alliance are like gutter rats; finding them isn’t easy. Now that you’re here, they’ll surely show themselves. This is a good opportunity to deal a heavy blow to them.”

”Although there will surely be outsiders, most who act will be members of the Heavenly Alliance from the Skyland Continent. This time, we should try to annihilate them. The Heavenly Alliance’s control in the Skyland Continent will surely shrink, making the situation on the continent more stable.”

Cecilia Browning worriedly said, ”If they take action, it will surely be a thunderous strike. Is using the young lady as bait dangerous?”

Ellen Stone nodded, ”To fish, you need bait. Without it, you surely won’t catch anything. To say there is no danger would be a lie...”

”Let’s do it!”

Before Ellen Stone could finish, Alfred Weaver had already made up his mind decisively, ”This is a rare opportunity. If successful, we can deal a heavy blow to the Heavenly Alliance’s forces in the Skyland Continent, stabilizing the continent’s situation. Even a bit of risk is worth taking!”

Thus, the plan was set. After resting for a day, Christopher Hopkins and Carson Flores, along with the others, were escorted ashore by Ellen Stone, who then turned away.

Christopher Hopkins and the others did not enter South Sparrow City but instead flew rapidly along the coastline, heading northward at low altitude.

After flying several hundred miles, the four of them boarded a Flying Boat and continued northward.

On the Flying Boat, Christopher Hopkins was slightly uneasy, ”Will they discover us?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”They surely will. For the Heavenly Alliance, this is a rare opportunity. As long as they kill you, with the Celestial Palace leaderless, the various factions will rise to compete legitimately for the position of Domain Master.”

”Previously, when we traveled such distances, they could precisely intercept us. They naturally have corresponding tracking methods, so don’t worry about them not falling into the trap. Moreover, even if they don’t, we have no loss—just a failed fishing expedition.”

Christopher Hopkins looked at Carson Flores, ”We’re the bait here and can be swallowed by fish at any moment, and you’re not even a bit nervous?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”Isn’t Uncle Stone at the back? We just need to delay a bit—that’s it, nothing to worry about!”

Christopher Hopkins blinked, ”What if it’s someone at Late Celestial Immortal stage or even stronger?”

Carson Flores shook his head, ”Then we’ll run. We’re not good at fighting, but we’re the best at escaping!”

Christopher Hopkins was amused by Carson Flores, ”Speaking of which, the techniques you’ve cultivated, although originating from the Barbaric Wilderness Realm, are not bad. Your Life and Death Art should be derived from the famed immortal Phoenix Nirvana Scripture, and your Ground Shrinking Technique likely shares roots with the Great Void Step for spatial passage...”

Carson Flores asked curiously, ”Speaking of this, I’m a bit puzzled. Logically, the cultivation techniques I’ve practiced should be considered backward and weak compared to the Immortal Realm, yet I’ve traveled around, fought quite a number, and found my techniques not weak, but rather strong. How does the Barbaric Wilderness Realm have so many powerful techniques?”

Christopher Hopkins thought for a bit, ”The Thunder Immortal Realm has numerous Lower Realms, but the Barbaric Wilderness Realm is quite peculiar. I don’t know the reason either; next time you see Delarosa, you can ask her. She’s been in the Barbaric Wilderness Realm for a long time—might know the reason.”

Carson Flores sighed, ”It’s been so many years; who knows how she’s doing now.”

Christopher Hopkins comforted, ”Delarosa is so powerful—you don’t need to worry about her safety. Perhaps she’s just gone somewhere far—the Immortal Realm is vast and boundless, after all, too big.”

Carson Flores nodded, ”As long as she’s safe.”

Christopher Hopkins looked at Carson Flores with a touch of concern, his gaze becoming softer.

Delarosa is merely an Artifact Spirit, but Carson Flores clearly regards her as a living person, genuinely caring for her safety, rather than just thinking of her return as a reliance.

No wonder Delarosa, so serene like an ’old relic’, ultimately chose to emerge and secretly follow Carson Flores, observing him.

Perhaps only true feelings can beget true feelings.

Vance Holt’s shout suddenly exploded in the air.

”Watch out!”
