Ji Lin listened to Xu Jiujiu and their discussion with a calm expression. He had already expected Sun Moon Empire's actions, but this was also the result of his laissez-faire. Otherwise, if the news was released in advance, many sects would prepare in advance, but Ji Lin did not do that because it would not be good for him.
Xu Jiujiu and Vina both looked heavy. As princesses of two empires, they knew very well what it meant that Sun Moon Empire was ready for war. This means that they are going to launch a war of aggression against the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire at the same time. This will be a huge war! And the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms, are they really ready?
Xu Jiujiu took a deep breath. She knew that the current Star Luo Empire was not ready yet. The trump card they had prepared was not completed yet. They still needed the excellent Soul Engineer to help them complete the last step.
Simply because Ji Lin is here, she doesn't have to worry too much. Xu Jiujiu looks at Ji Lin with gentle eyes. With Ji Lin here, she feels full of security. No matter how strong Sun Moon Empire is, she still has confidence in Ji Lin. At the same time, she is also vaguely aware of Ji Lin's true thoughts, but she pretended not to know and never mentioned them to Xu Jiawei. Based on her understanding of Imperial Brother, he would not compromise now. Exposing Ji Lin's true thoughts in advance would only cause conflict between the two. Ji Lin still needs an opportunity.
And Xu Jiujiu has vaguely felt that this opportunity is not far away. She and Ji Lin are one. No matter what choice Ji Lin makes, she will support it. As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off will be thrown away. Water, Xu Jiujiu fully reflects the meaning of this sentence. Although Ji Lin's choice may harm Star Crown Sect's interests, she believes in Ji Lin and her own vision.
So even though she knew Ji Lin had other ideas, she remained silent and pretended not to know.
No matter what Ji Lin wants to do, Star Luo Empire is indeed not ready now. Their trump card is still in the plan and has not been realized. They need time.
So Xu Jiujiu said in a deep voice, "Vina and I have reached an agreement. If we want to break through, we must unite. The relationship between us is quite familiar. Plus Shrek Academy, we are an extremely powerful force. We have been working hard to explore. Mingdu is so big that it is difficult to completely blockade it. We have a great chance of breaking out from one direction."
"However, there is another question, which is about this war. It seems that Sun Moon Empire is fully prepared, but we are far from it. Therefore, we need to buy ourselves time, so we cannot leave so directly. We must give Sun Moon Empire enough blows on Mingdu to slow down their attack, so that we can have more time to prepare."
Ji Lin nodded, indeed, it would not work to let Sun Moon Empire go too smoothly.
Zhang Lexuan said, "A few of our Shrek Elder Scholar have detected that Sun Moon Empire has dispatched several Soul Engineer legions to form a defense line, and they all have high-level Soul Engineer is in charge, and all the teams that left before must have been controlled by them. However, the strange thing is that they did not surround Mingdu on all sides, but surrounded three and left one, leaving the west side empty, which is the farthest opposite direction from our return to the academy."
Bei Bei took out a map and spread it out, looking at the terrain around Mingdu.
The terrain around Mingdu is very good, with wide plains on three sides, which is suitable for farming and marching. Only to the west is a mountain range called Sun Moon Mountain Range.
This mountain range is not too broad, but just covers the west side of Mingdu. Although Mingdu itself does not have a city wall, there is nothing wrong with being built on the mountain. It is just because the other three sides are too open. It is difficult for people who have just arrived in Mingdu to notice the west side.
After looking at the map, Mu Xue frowned and said, "Surround three and leave one. Is this to prevent the gap left intentionally by our desperate efforts? But, logically speaking, Sun Moon Empire does not need to do this at all! Their purpose should be to catch us all. How could there be a way to survive? Moreover, the mountainous terrain is complex, which is best for hiding and avoiding. It is much more difficult to seal the mountains than to arrange them on the plains."
Vina was also looking at the map next to Mu Xue and said, "Moreover, this Sun Moon Mountain Range is right next to Mingdu. It is definitely not a Soul Beast settlement. It should be an ordinary mountain range."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but show doubts.
Ji Lin smiled and said, "When things go wrong, there must be monsters. Sun Moon Empire wants us to break out from the west, but we are not what they want. We go in other directions and gather our strength. No matter which direction we break out from, we are very sure. There is no need to take risks. The west may be the most dangerous."
For Ji Lin, the west is more dangerous than any other direction. That place has been opened through Holy Spirit Cult's sacrifice. He will not go to the west no matter what. That place is likely to meet people he does not want to meet at this time.
Although the other party may not appear due to plane shielding.
But there was a one in ten thousand chance that he didn't want to gamble. Once he made a mistake, it would be a doomed situation, so it was better to play it safe.
Bei Bei frowned and said, "But Xuan Zi has personally inspected it, and even inspected the entire mountain range from the air. Sun Moon Mountain Range, although there are a small number of the Sun Moon Empire troops stationed there, they certainly do not pose a threat to us."
Ji Lin shook his head and said, "Maybe, but it can't be that simple in the West. Senior Bei Bei, how many people are coming to the college this time."
He didn't want to dwell on this topic. He had already decided that he would not break out from the west, so he would never go.
Bei Bei also saw Ji Lin's determination. He thought thoughtfully. Ji Lin seemed to be very afraid of the West. Is there really something in the Sun Moon Mountain Range that even Xuan Zi didn't detect?
Thinking of the teacher next to Ji Lin, Bei Bei understood that he was a strong man even stronger than his ancestor. Ji Lin was so afraid of the West. Could it be that Chi Yuan had detected something?
Although Bei Bei misunderstood, he still answered Ji Lin's question, "There are not many people from the academy, but they are all strong. Xuan Zi came in person, and there were four other Sea God Pavilion Elder, including Dean Soul Tool Department, Xian Lin'er, there are six Titled Douluo, plus Sister Lexuan, there are seven, a total of five are Super Douluo's strength."
Hearing what he said, both Xu Jiujiu and Vina looked shocked. Is Shrek Academy Titled Douluo who was half dispatched? Is this the background of the Shrek Academy?
Xu Jiujiu only brought three Titled Douluo, Super Douluo only had one, and Body Sect was dispatched over Vina. They had other purposes. Could it be that Shrek also had an idea?
Vina thought wrong, Shrek has no other purpose, it is just to protect the next generation of the Shrek Academy. After all, these are Shrek Academy's best young people. If Sun Moon Empire is accidentally folded here, Shrek will be heartbroken.
Zhang Lexuan said, "Xuan Zi said that it is not important whether to destroy Mingdu. What is important is to take us all back. Shrek will not be the first to deal with the Sun Moon Empire."
Xu Jiujiu and Vina's expressions changed at the same time. This is not good news for them. To destroy Mingdu and delay Sun Moon Empire's start of war, the power brought by the two of them alone is not enough. If Shrek Academy does not participate, it will be a bit difficult for them.
For the Shrek Academy, bringing Bei Bei and the others safely back to Shrek is the top priority. As for destroying Sun Moon Empire's plan, that is not the most important thing to them.
Seeing that both Her Highness the Princess were a little dissatisfied, Ji Lin changed the subject and said, "Sister Jiujiu, what is the plan?"
Xu Jiujiu and Vina looked at each other and said, "Pretend to attack Mingde Hall, but actually assassinate Sun Moon Empire Crown Prince Xu Tianran. This Xu Tianran has always been the main battle, and Moreover, Emperor Sun Moon Empire is in poor health. If Xu Tianran is allowed to rule Sun Moon Empire, war will happen soon. As long as he dies, Sun Moon Empire will definitely have civil strife, which can delay the war for a period of time and allow all countries to fully prepare."
Xu Jiujiu has another purpose that he has not stated, which is to disrupt Mingdu, and then take the opportunity to kidnap several high-level Soul Engineer and bring them back to the Star Luo Empire.
Ji Lin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this is difficult. Xu Tianran is now the regent of the Sun Moon Empire, and he is protected by Holy Spirit Cult masters. Such a person, it would be very difficult to kill him in a sneak attack. Moreover, Xu Tianran once lost his legs due to an attack. With such a painful experience, how could he not pay attention to his own safety?"
Zhang Lexuan nodded and said, "Xuan Zi also took this aspect into consideration, so he didn't want to participate and wanted to take us away from the place of right and wrong."
Xu Jiujiu and Vina were silent. For the safety of both countries, they had to take action. If Shrek did not participate, their success rate would be even lower, but even so, they would not give up the assassination.
Ji Lin didn't say much. Just let her do whatever Xu Jiujiu wanted to do. Unless Xu Jiujiu was going to assassinate him personally, Ji Lin only needed to protect Xu Jiujiu. As for whether it was successful or not, he didn't care.
Of course, Xu Tianran's survival is best for his plan, but he will not stop Xu Jiujiu. She is not only his fiancée, but also the deputy sect leader of Freedom Gate, and also Star Luo Empire Princess, as long as she doesn't go to die herself, Ji Lin will let her do it. With Chi Yuan here, there will be no problem in taking them away Mingdu safely.
Xu Jiujiu and Vina left disappointed. They had to go back to prepare specific plans. Vina also had to participate in the next competition, which was very busy.
Zhang Lexuan sighed, "The academy is not prepared to participate this time, and I can't help."
Ji Lin thought for a moment and said, "Isn't the college preparing to vigorously develop Soul Tool? Sister Jiujiu and they plan to assassinate Xu Tianran. Mingdu will definitely be in chaos by then. Chaos, the college can take the opportunity to steal a batch of military Soul Tool from the Sun Moon Empire, and let Xuan Zi investigate it carefully in the past few days. I think Xuan Zi will not refuse this opportunity."
Zhang Lexuan looked at Ji Lin with a half-smile and said, "You really dote on your Her Highness the Princess! You are helping her in different ways!"
Ji Lin chuckled and said, "Sister Lexuan are you jealous?"
"Ahem!"
Bei Bei coughed awkwardly, indicating that he was still here. He had long known the relationship between Ji Lin and Zhang Lexuan. Maybe he would call Ji Lin brother-in-law that day.
Before Mu En passed away this time, he did not tell Bei Bei about the contract he made with Zhang Lexuan, so Bei Bei didn't know that the sister he once thought was his actual fiancée was now someone else's.
Of course, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care. He is different from Ji Lin. He is the God of Pure Love and only loves Tang Ya.
He would even thank Ji Lin for winning Zhang Lexuan so as not to embarrass him.
Zhang Lexuan is also a little embarrassed. He was really jealous just now because Ji Lin doted on Xu Jiujiu so much that he failed to consider the occasion.
She stood up and pretended to be calm. "I will go back and tell Xuan Zi about your proposal, and we will leave first."
After saying that, Bei Bei turned around and left. Bei Bei gave Ji Lin a thumbs up and followed Zhang Lexuan away.
In the past few days, the atmosphere of Mingdu has continued to heat up, and the youth and senior Soul Master Elite Tournament across the continent are about to enter the semi-finals.
Almost all teahouses and wine shops were discussing the situation of the competition.
All continental youth senior Soul Master Elite Tournament semi-final matchup situation.
In the morning, Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy versus Snow Demon Sect.
In the afternoon, Freedom Gate versus Holy Spirit Sect.
These are two games full of highlights, Snow Demon Sect who has always hidden his strength and Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy who defeated Shrek Academy, super dark horse Freedom Gate versus the mysterious and cruel Holy Spirit Sect.
The second game of the semi-finals is considered to be the most intense competition to be staged in this competition.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see what kind of existence Holy Spirit Sect is, Evil Soul Master, that is Evil Soul Master! But in terms of public opinion, Sun Moon Empire has been suppressing the discussion of the Holy Spirit Sect with a repressive attitude. If Sun Moon Empire dares to let Holy Spirit Sect play in the game, it has already been arranged.
Therefore, discussing Holy Spirit Sect is even taboo in Mingdu.
But even so, everyone has a title in their mind. How powerful can a Evil Soul Master sect be? If they win the final championship, maybe Sun Moon Empire will become a joke. At least, it will be an absolute stain on All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament in history.
So even the heroic Xu Tianran will not let Holy Spirit Sect really win the championship. That result is not what he wants. Although he does not care about any stains, for him, history is written by the winner. As long as he can unify the continent, what stains cannot be erased? This is also an important reason why he boldly dared to let Holy Spirit Sect play.
It is not that there is no opposition within the Sun Moon Empire, and the opposition is quite strong, but Xu Tianran, with the support of Holy Spirit Cult, simply ignores these objections. After bloody suppression of several of the strongest opposition voices, Holy Spirit Sect completed the initial registration.
Of course, Xu Tianran also made a compromise. After all, Consecration Hall, Sun Moon Empire's strongest supporter, also had his support and opposition. Not allowing Holy Spirit Sect to win the championship was Xu Tianran's compromise against the Consecration Hall.
