Three Chess Pieces, Three Goals

"What?"

How could that be?

Almost immediately after seeing the Hun Clan Dou Sheng hand over two Tou She Ancient God Jade to the Hun Tiandi, Lei Ying and Yan Jin couldn't help but exclaim in surprise at the same time.

Since learning that the Hun Clan's target was the Tou She Ancient God Jade, both the Thunder and Flame Clans had taken precautions.

They even had a bit of a fishing mentality involved this time.

Yes, the two clans had made arrangements regarding the Tou She Ancient God Jade.

Both clans placed their Tou She Ancient God Jade in their own ancestral halls.

Of course, the two races did more than just do this.

Subsequently, especially after the Yao Clan was nearly wiped out, Lei Ying and Yan Jin had already arranged communication between the ancestral shrine and themselves before bringing their clansmen to participate in the Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering.

If someone invades from the outside, or if they can no longer sense the existence of their ancestral temple, it means that the Hun Clan has taken action against the Tou She Ancient God Jade of their two clans.

Although the two of them are currently with the Gu Clan, if such a situation were to occur, Gu Yuan could lead them there in no time at all.

At that point, they could even trap the person who made the move inside their own home!

In Lei Ying and Yan Jin's minds, the only one who could possibly do this was Nihility Devouring Flame.

Therefore, their original plan was to use the Tou She Ancient God Jade as bait to lure the Nihility Devouring Flame, and then bring Gu Yuan home to block the door.

But they clearly haven't sensed anything unusual about their ancestral shrine, so how did the Tou She Ancient God Jade end up in the hands of the Hun Clan?

That's why Lei Ying and Yan Jin's faces were filled with disbelief at this moment.

In other words, they are essentially fishing, the bait has been eaten, and the fish has gotten away.

How could Lei Ying, Yan Jin, and the people of both clans accept this?

"That's impossible! I didn't sense anything wrong with the ancestral hall!"

Lei Ying spoke with a gloomy expression.

Me too...

Yan Jin's expression at this moment was no better than Lei Ying's.

They had discussed with Gu Yuan the matter of using the Tou She Ancient God Jade of their two clans as bait to lure Nihility Devouring Flame or Hun Clan experts to seize it.

Therefore, Gu Yuan also thought it was feasible!

Before the final battle, weakening the Hun Clan would be a good thing for them.

Otherwise, the Thunder and Flame clans wouldn't have brought out most of their forces.

However, things have clearly taken an unexpected turn.

"Hun Tiandi, how did your Hun Clan manage to seize the Tou She Ancient God Jade from both the Thunder and Flame Clans so easily?"

Seeing the Hun Tiandi with a beaming smile as he put two more pieces of Tou She Ancient God Jade into his pocket, Gu Yuan couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

Unlike the Original Work where the Thunder and Flame clans were truly unprepared, in this life they actually took the initiative to fish for them!

In this situation, the protection that the Thunder and Flame clans would give to the Tou She Ancient God Jade would definitely be stronger than in the Original Work.

But even the strongest defenses are still exposed to the outside!

If the defense is breached from the inside, what can be done?

No matter how much you decorate, it's useless!

"How did you do that? Gu Yuan, you'll find out soon enough..."

Upon hearing Gu Yuan's question, the Hun Tiandi gave him a meaningful look.

The Hun Clan treated the Ancient, Thunder, and Flame Clans differently than the Spirit, Stone, and Medicine Clans.

When faced with the latter, the Hun Clan disdained any tricks and opted for a direct assault.

For the Hun Clan, to deal with the Spirit, Stone, and Medicine Clans, they only need to seize the right opportunity and take direct action.

Once the three clans are destroyed, won't the Hun Clan be able to take whatever they want from the Tou She Ancient God Jade that the three clans possess?

Although there were some unexpected issues with the Medicine and Stone clans, the Ancient Jade from the former has already been acquired, and the Ancient Jade from the latter is almost there...

After all, at their level, he didn't think Lin Xiao would break the contract.

However, when facing the Ancient, Thunder, and Flame races, the Hun Clan dared not act so recklessly again.

Furthermore, not only do they not act without a plan, but they had already been preparing for hundreds of years to seize the Tou She Ancient God Jade from the Gu, Lei, and Yan clans.

Leaving aside the Gu Clan, the Thunder and Flame races are not weak either.

Although the Hun Tiandi was confident that he could easily kill Lei Ying and Yan Jin.

However, if the two of them activate the clan's protective formation, even he estimates that they won't be able to break through for a while!

Ever since he recovered from his injuries, Gu Yuan has been keeping a close eye on him.

Therefore, if we were to really take action against the Thunder and Flame races, the most we could do would be to use the Nihility Devouring Flame.

However, given Nihility Devouring Flame's strength, the Thunder and Flame races would likely be able to kill him once they activate their protective formation!

Therefore, when facing the Thunder and Flame races, as well as the even stronger Gu Clan, the Hun Clan can only rely on strategy to seize the Tou She Ancient God Jade from these three races; brute force is unrealistic.

Then, the Hun Clan spent hundreds of years and effort to finally place a crucial piece among the Ancient, Thunder, and Flame Clans.

The Hun Clan has never used this chess piece.

The Hun Clan will only activate the Tou She Ancient God Jade when they seize it from the three clans.

After all, the more you move, the greater the chance of being exposed.

Nothing is more important to these three chess pieces than seizing the Tou She Ancient God Jade from the three races!

However, this move must be implemented simultaneously!

Otherwise, once the Gu Clans learn the specific details of the theft of the Tou She Ancient God Jade the Lei and Yan clans, they will definitely launch an internal investigation.

Therefore, the Hun Tiandi's purpose in coming here is actually threefold.

Firstly, it was to buy time for the pawns planted among the Lei and Yan clans to seize the Tou She Ancient God Jade.

Sure enough, the Tou She Ancient God Jade held by the two clans has now fallen into his hands, while the clan leaders are still in a daze, wondering why their arrangements have not produced any results.

Secondly, they wanted to see what this so-called Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering was all about.

Judging from the current situation, this is indeed a force that, when united, is strong enough to rival the Hun Clan!

This does not include Lin Xiao, who was absent for some unknown reason.

If the other side also arrives, even his Hun Clan will have to give way!

Finally, and most importantly, he's here to pick someone up...

Just as the Hun Tiandi was thinking this, he made a move.

"Splash~"

Suddenly, the Hun Tiandi took a step forward, and instantly, the sound of waves seemed to rise between heaven and earth.

Clearly, this is the Hun Tiandi stirring up the energy tides of heaven and earth!

Upon seeing this, the allied forces' expressions immediately changed.

After all, this is the method of Nine-Star Dou Saint powerhouse!

It's no exaggeration to say that if Gu Yuan hadn't been there, many of them would have been starting to consider where they would be buried next.

"Hun Tiandi!"

Seeing that the Hun Tiandi dared to take the initiative to attack even on his Gu Clan's territory, Gu Yuan also took a step forward.

"Splash~"

Immediately afterwards, another sound, as if from the heavens, resounded.

This is a manifestation of the energy tides of heaven and earth that Gu Yuan also stirred up!

"Boom"

Suddenly, it seemed as if two waves collided in the Void.
