Chapter 1351: Chapter 1348: Sinister Intentions

Chen Xiao shivered, and said nervously, ”Master, the Dragon Palace is the stronghold of the Sea Demon Tribe. Even if you lend me a hundred lives, I wouldn’t dare to attack it!”

He knew that the Sea Demon Tribe had no strong beings left in the Dragon Palace, making this the best time to attack.

But.

Chen Xiao lacked the courage.

”Seeing you so timid is truly disappointing for me as your master!”

”I originally planned to let you take charge of Forgetting Worry Island once I ascended. How can I trust you with Forgetting Worry Island when you act like this?”

Liang Xingyun looked at him with disappointment, his eyes full of expectation unmet.

”Master, I...” Chen Xiao felt deeply ashamed, not realizing his master had placed such high hopes on him.

After all, he had six other senior brothers, and their cultivation levels were all very high.

Liang Xingyun sighed lightly, ”It is not that I am forcing you to attack the Dragon Palace, but rather, this matter prevents me from taking action myself.”

”My identity is special. If I were to attack the Dragon Palace, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the Sea Dragon King.”

”If he leaves the Heart of the Sea Spring, what awaits us is the Sea Demon Tribe’s mad revenge.”

”If it really comes to that, our Human Race would suffer heavy casualties.”

Saying this, he looked at Chen Xiao and said seriously, ”But you are different.”

”You are merely my disciple and do not represent the Human Race.”

”Moreover, if you take action, I can ensure the Sea Dragon King won’t blame our Human Race.”

”Of course, whether you want to help me avenge Xu Wendong is up to you.”

”Even if you don’t want to, it’s alright. I won’t force you to do anything against your will!”

Chen Xiao hesitated for a moment, and then his eyes became extremely determined: ”Disciple never thought of controlling Forgetting Worry Island. All my actions are to help master vent his anger.”

He had just weighed this matter.

With his Seventh-Level Scatter Immortal cultivation, if he strikes while the Dragon Palace is devoid of strong beings, he can still find and kill Xu Wendong.

Liang Xingyun showed a gratified smile, ”I knew you wouldn’t disappoint me, but if you want to cover this up, you might have to suffer a bit.”

Chen Xiao’s eyes were resolute: ”As long as I can help master kill Xu Wendong, no amount of suffering is too much for me to bear.”

Liang Xingyun’s eyes were filled with deepening warmth, and he produced a blue Immortal Sword, saying, ”This is a Medium-Grade Immortal Sword I found in the Yuantian Secret Realm, and its power is extraordinarily strong.”

”I had intended to use it myself, but now I am giving it to you.”

Chen Xiao’s eyes burned with enthusiasm because he knew that even in the Yuantian Secret Realm, Medium-Grade Immortal Swords are rare, making this an invaluable treasure.

”Master, rest assured, disciple will not let you down.” Chen Xiao accepted the Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact with excitement.

With this in hand.

He had more confidence to break through the Dragon Palace’s formation and kill Xu Wendong.

Liang Xingyun said softly, ”Take this sword and leave. After you are gone, I will announce to the cultivators in the Chaotic Star Sea that you have stolen my Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact and have them issue a manhunt for you.”

Chen Xiao nodded solemnly, understanding his master’s intentions.

Once the theft of the treasure is proclaimed, it clears his master’s involvement.

Even if the Sea Dragon King wants to take revenge on Forgetting Worry Island, he must weigh the necessity.

At that point.

The Sea Dragon King could only swallow the bitterness in silence, unable to voice his grievances.

Liang Xingyun said, ”Go on, I’m waiting for your good news. It would be best if the Sea Dragon King becomes a homeless dog.” As he spoke, a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes.

”Disciple takes his leave!” Chen Xiao bowed and retreated.

Just after Chen Xiao left, a young man in a white brocade robe appeared behind Liang Xingyun. This man, standing eight feet tall with sword-like brows and starry eyes, was exceptionally handsome.

”Master, why did you let the third senior brother attack the Dragon Palace?” The young man, named Ning Chuan, was Liang Xingyun’s second disciple and the most powerful in cultivation among all his disciples.

Liang Xingyun’s gaze was profound, ”I want to test the strength and weakness of the Dragon Palace.”

Ning Chuan said, ”But the Sea Dragon King is suspicious by nature and inclined to killing. If the third senior brother actually conquers his Dragon Palace, he is very likely to launch a fierce counterattack against us.”

Upon hearing this.

Liang Xingyun broke into a slight cold smile, ”If the Sea Dragon King really dares to do that, then let’s eliminate him too!”

The situation in the Chaotic Star Sea was very delicate.

There were three forces coexisting.

The first was the Sea Demon Tribe headed by the Sea Dragon King.

Their numbers were huge and spread throughout the Chaotic Star Sea.

The second was the cultivators led by Liang Xingyun, fewer in number than the Sea Demon Tribe but also numbering in the millions.

The third force was the pirates led by Xue Long.

Although they were the fewest in number, their elusive and unpredictable movements kept them present in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Although Liang Xingyun and Xue Long were like fire and water, both parties knew they had to maintain the existing balance between them.

Once one force was eliminated, the surviving force would undoubtedly face retaliation from the Sea Demon Tribe, possibly leading to ruin.

This was an unspoken understanding between Xue Long and Liang Xingyun.

Therefore.

Liang Xingyun wasn’t afraid of the Sea Dragon King attacking Forgetting Worry Island, as this would allow him to join forces with Xue Long to eliminate him.

This is also why he sent Chen Xiao to attack the Dragon Palace while keeping himself out of the picture.

If he had led his own cultivators to attack the Dragon Palace and the Sea Dragon King went crazy, Xue Long might not have stood with him in battle.

Ning Chuan was full of admiration and exclaimed, ”Master, your strategy is truly far-reaching. Disciple is convinced, both in heart and words!”

”I must thank Xu Wendong. Without him, I wouldn’t have found such a suitable opportunity to act against the Sea Dragon King.” Liang Xingyun’s face showed a sly smile.

Ning Chuan hesitated for a moment and couldn’t help but say, ”But what if Xue Long stands by and does not help us?”

Liang Xingyun: ”I have considered this matter. Even if Xue Long refuses to help us, with our current strength at Forgetting Worry Island, we can completely annihilate the Sea Dragon King!”

Ning Chuan was momentarily stunned, then his eyes shone brightly: ”Does Master mean the rumors of the Sea Demon Tribe being gravely ill?”

”Indeed.” Liang Xingyun smiled, ”During this trip to the Yuantian Secret Realm, I kept a close watch on the actions of the Sea Demon Tribe, especially noticing their slow pace ascending the stone steps. It’s not hard to see their cultivation has suffered a fatal blow.”

”Therefore, even if the Sea Dragon King leads the Sea Demon Tribe to attack our Forgetting Worry Island, with our current strength, we can contend with them, or even wipe them out!”

Ning Chuan gave a thumbs-up in admiration, ”Master’s meticulous eye and unrivaled strategy have left me completely convinced. Regardless of how this battle unfolds, we are the ultimate winners!”

Liang Xingyun spoke earnestly, ”Ning Chuan, among my disciples, you are the most gifted and intelligent. I plan to pass on Forgetting Worry Island to you after I ascend, and I hope that in this battle, you will not let me down!”
