Hun Tiandi's Scheme
"Supreme Elder Lin, is something on your mind?"
Seeing Xiao Lin's sigh and mutterings, Xiao Yan subconsciously asked a question.
"Ah, I was thinking about something, and I almost fell into that Hun Tiandi's trap! Heh, I must say, the Hun Tiandi truly lives up to his reputation as a peerless and ruthless figure!"
Xiao Lin nodded, and now there was only emotion on Xiao Lin's face.
"Supreme Elder Lin, what are you talking about? I don't understand a word you're saying!"
Xiao Lin's riddle had clearly confused Xiao Yan.
As for Xiao Chen standing to the side, needless to say, he still doesn't understand what happened.
"This story begins two years ago... At that time, you had not yet left the Demonic Flame Space, and after receiving support from the Hun Clan, the Soul Hall launched a counterattack against the Heavenly Mansion Alliance."
It was precisely at this moment that Hun Tu arrived at my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, bringing with him a warning from Hun Tiandi.
Initially, I always thought that the Hun Clan's purpose was to restrain my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace so that the Soul Hall could deal with the Heavenly Mansion Alliance.
In retrospect, my judgment was not entirely correct.
Actually, Hun Tu stayed in my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace for two years for another purpose!
It's all to attract the attention of everyone in my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, so that we'll overlook our focus on the Soul Hall!
In this way, even if there are any personnel changes at the Soul Hall's Leadership, they won't be detected by my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace immediately.
In this situation, if the Soul Hall were to send in a powerful expert at the level of one of the Four Demon Saints to serve as its Soul Hall Master...
"So, when the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall clash, what do you think the outcome will be?"
Xiao Lin's eyes flickered for a moment before he spoke calmly.
"The result will be... ouch!"
Based on Supreme Elder Lin's description, Xiao Yan subconsciously imagined the scene in his mind.
He gasped in shock.
Without a doubt, unless his strength breaks through again, a level Four Demon Saints, plus the Soul Hall's number of Dou Sheng Experts which is no less than that of the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, can definitely deal a heavy blow to the Heavenly Mansion Alliance!
Xiao Yan considered himself quite strong now.
However, if the opponent is a powerhouse at the level of one of the Four Demon Saints, he estimates that he will only be able to barely hold out for a while.
"It seems you've already considered the consequences. The Hun Clan has many powerful members, and if they secretly mobilize, it will be very difficult for us to defend against them... Although my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace had been keeping an eye on a portion of the Hun Clan's fighting force, the arrival of Hun Tu still attracted too much of our attention."
This led us to be surprised that the Hun Clan had already begun their operation at some point.
This time, if it weren't for you, Xiao Yan, not noticing the anomaly and coming to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, even I would have been deceived by the Hun Tiandi.
His main purpose in sending Hun Tu to warn me wasn't actually that!
Its primary purpose is to keep my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace unaware that the Soul Hall's Leadership have undergone a major reshuffle!
When Xiao Lin said this, his tone even carried admiration for the Hun Tiandi.
Truly, if it weren't for the irreconcilable hatred between the two sides, Hun Tiandi would definitely be the person Xiao Lin admires most.
You have to understand, Xiao Lin has read the Original Work, so he essentially has a god-like perspective!
However, this time, he almost fell into the trap set by the Hun Tiandi again.
Just as Xiao Lin himself said, if it weren't for Xiao Yan's arrival, he really wouldn't have known that the Soul Hall Master might no longer be Hun Miesheng!
Firstly, since this kind of thing didn't happen in the Original Work, Xiao Lin subconsciously didn't think about it in that direction.
Secondly, the Hun Tiandi is indeed a man of exceptional strategy!
To be honest, if Xiao Lin were a native of the Dou Qi Continent, he might not be able to defeat the Hun Tiandi!
It must be said that the Hun Tiandi was indeed the most terrifying enemy he had ever seen, without exception!
"The Hun Tiandi is truly terrifying. No wonder even my cousin Xiao Xuan perished at his hands back then..."
This time, it was Xiao Chen who uttered the exclamation.
A thousand years ago, since Xiao Xuan was the one who faced the Hun Tiandi, Xiao Chen didn't have much of a reaction.
But now, he has also deeply felt the terror of the Hun Tiandi!
"Supreme Elder Lin, now that we have seen through the Hun Tiandi's plan, do you have a countermeasure? Or rather, are you able to intervene when the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall clash?"
Having figured out the Hun Tiandi's plan, they naturally needed to start considering how to counter it.
In Xiao Yan's opinion, as long as Supreme Elder Lin can take action, it won't matter who the Hun Clan sends except for the Hun Tiandi.
He had heard Xun'er mention it to him.
Earlier, when the Hun Clan secretly attacked the Stone Clan, Supreme Elder Lin fought to a draw with Nihility Devouring Flame, who had reached the Early-Stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng!
With that kind of strength, if he were to face a powerhouse at the level of one of the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, wouldn't he be able to take them all down with a single slap?
Therefore, he naturally hoped that Supreme Elder Lin could take direct action.
"Although we have indeed seen through the Hun Tiandi's plan, the chances of me being able to take action are slim. The Hun Tiandi sent Hun Tu with a warning to me."
Although its main purpose was to attract my attention, it should also be what the Hun Tiandi really wanted to convey to me.
If I were to intervene, the war would escalate further!
At that point, it will no longer be just a matter between the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall...
Even the Hun Clan and the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace will be dragged into the fray.
"And the combined strength of my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace and the Heavenly Mansion Alliance is clearly inferior to that of the Hun Clan and the Soul Hall."
After considering Xiao Yan's request for a while, Xiao Lin shook his head.
It wasn't that Xiao Lin was unwilling to take action, but as he said, the Hun Tiandi wouldn't allow him to interfere in the decisive battle between the Soul Hall and the Heavenly Mansion Alliance.
Therefore, regardless of whether he saw through the Hun Tiandi's plan or not, there was no possibility that he would make a move!
"I see... then it seems I'll have to seek help from the Gu Clan..."
In Xiao Yan's opinion, the only ones who could help the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, besides the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, were the Gu Clan.
As for the Lei Clan and the Yan Clan, he really didn't have any connections with them!
But the Gu Clan were different.
He already has Engagement Contract with Xun'er, so he's practically the son-in-law of the Gu Clan. Isn't it normal for him to ask his father-in-law for help?
"There's no need to go through all that trouble!"
Just then, Xiao Lin suddenly smiled mysteriously.
"Hmm? Supreme Elder Lin, what do you mean?"
Xiao Yan was clearly confused by Xiao Lin's words.
Since Supreme Elder Lin couldn't intervene, who else could he turn to for help besides the Gu Clans?
"Hehe, I only said I couldn't intervene, not that I couldn't offer help! Don't worry, if the Soul Hall really has a powerhouse at the level of one of the Four Demon Saints, someone will be there to intercept them..."
Xiao Lin smiled and said with absolute certainty.
"Hmm? Supreme Elder Lin, are you saying that besides you, there is someone else in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace who can intercept a powerhouse at the level of the Four Demon Saints?"
At this moment, Xiao Yan's pupils widened slightly.
"Heavenly secrets must not be revealed!"
However, Xiao Lin did not give a direct answer, but instead posed a riddle.
