After hearing Wen Xinzhao's explanation, Chen Lin knew there was no escaping this.
Wan Zhencang was using an open stratagem.
He had neither attacked Chen Lin directly nor ordered his subordinates to deal with him. Instead, he was using an Alliance mission.
Everything was aboveboard, leaving no room for anyone to object.
And it had even been approved by the Elder Council.
Even if Jin Ruhua returned, she would be powerless to intervene unless that Sword Saint stepped in to stop it.
But that was clearly impossible.
The Sword Saint wanted nothing to do with him. His importance could not compare with Wan Zhencang's, and the Sword Saint would never help a small fry like him.
Since nothing could be done, Chen Lin stopped dwelling on it.
He would counter each move as it came.
He looked at Wen Xinzhao and said, "In that case, I can only accept the mission. But I won't feel at ease leaving my daughter here after I'm gone. Please use your elder permissions to release the restrictions of Bright Peak's grand formation so I can open a space passage here and send her away."
"You have an advanced Boundary-Breaking Disc?"
Wen Xinzhao looked somewhat surprised.
A Boundary-Breaking Disc capable of crossing directly between planes was an extraordinarily rare treasure.
Even she did not have one.
Nor did she think Chen Lin had the ability to activate an advanced Boundary-Breaking Disc.
"It isn't a Boundary-Breaking Disc, but it can also break through the barrier between planes. It just has considerable limitations."
Chen Lin said no more.
He watched her, waiting for an answer.
Using an Elder Token to break through the formation's restrictions would still be detected by the grand formation. As Alliance Leader, Wan Zhencang would inevitably know what they had done here. If
