Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1594: Chapter 1593: This Is Confidence!

”Tell us, how did you escape from those guys of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow?” someone asked with a smile.

Lin Ye immediately glared, ”Escape? What do you mean by escape? Do you know how to speak?”

”Then what happened?” the squad captain asked again.

They only knew that Lin Ye and the others survived, but they didn’t know whether they defeated the opponents or escaped.

However, they subconsciously believed that Lin Ye and the others escaped.

Because no matter Su Han’s cultivation base or when Lin Ye and others called for help, they were already besieged, both proving how difficult it was for them to strike back.

”The people of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow are all dead.”

Lin Ye said in a deep voice, ”That should have been the 96th and 87th squads of the War God Army of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow, all killed by Su Han.”

”What?!”

Everyone’s expression changed, suddenly looking at Su Han with disbelief on their faces.

”Su Han killed them all by himself?” Even Fang Lv, with a frosty expression, couldn’t help but ask.

”Yes.” Lin Ye nodded without saying more.

Su Han, however, shook his head slightly, curling his mouth, ”It was just using a formation from the War of the Gods. With my strength, how could I possibly kill them all.”

”A formation?”

Fang Lv looked at Su Han, then at Lin Ye.

Su Han spoke as if it were simple, but she saw from Lin Ye’s expression some complex emotions towards Su Han.

It wasn’t exactly reverence, but it was definitely admiration, and a strong admiration at that!

”You can even use formations set by those divine spirits?” A bearded squad captain exclaimed in surprise.

”Regardless of who set it, it’s still a formation.”

Su Han glanced at this person calmly, ”Moreover, they’re not divine spirits; in this world, no divine spirits exist, they are just stronger cultivators, that’s all.”

Everyone was silent, hearing the resistance in Su Han’s words towards divine spirits, but not knowing why that was.

...

After some banter, Wang Lin arrived, bringing a crystal stone.

This crystal stone presumably recorded the troop division and power distribution of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow on the starry battlefield.

The Sect of the Supreme Shadow’s corps also comprised three.

War God Army, King Wu’s Army, Breaking Spirit Army!

The War God Army is the weakest, King Wu’s Army is intermediate, and the Breaking Spirit Army is the strongest.

Much like the Netherworld King Army, Angel Army, and Star God Army of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

Previously, the two squads Su Han destroyed using the formation were from the War God Army.

Every force has its own safe stronghold on the starry arena, like the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion under this big tree.

The exact safe location of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow is unknown to the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, and likewise, the Sect of the Supreme Shadow doesn’t know the location of the Pavilion’s safe stronghold.

However, this crystal stone records some places occupied by the Sect of the Supreme Shadow, where spirit crystals, medicinal ingredients, or materials appear throughout the year.

And the primary source of wealth for the Sect of the Supreme Shadow comes from these places!

The starry arena is certainly one of the places in the Lower-Class Star Region that produces the most spirit crystals!

Similarly, the main source of wealth for the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion is also the starry arena!

Corps belonging to various forces will gather these resources and transport them back to their respective forces.

The Heavenly Mountain Pavilion can find these places held by the Sect of the Supreme Shadow, and similarly, the Sect can find where the Pavilion collects spirit crystals.

However, the starry arena was already fraught with crises, and though the forces had friction, they wouldn’t engage in large-scale conflict, thus maintaining a semblance of peace.

Su Han stopped his divine sense in the crystal stone for a moment, then said to Wang Lin, ”Can you map out the exact routes of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow?”

Wang Lin shook his head, ”We really can’t determine that, as crises in the starry arena can arise at any time. No route is completely safe, and those guys aren’t fools; they might use one route this time and another route the next.”

”I see...”

Su Han pursed his lips, ”Still, map out all the routes they might take for me. Even if they don’t actually take those routes, map them out. Do you understand what I mean?”

”Su Han, what are you planning to do?” Fang Lv asked with a slight frown.

”Intercept them,” Su Han replied calmly.

”Intercept?”

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned.

The bearded man said to Su Han, ”Su Han, don’t take what I’m about to say the wrong way!”

Su Han remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

”Look, our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion and the Sect of the Supreme Shadow indeed have tensions, but it’s limited to friction, and neither side initiates. For instance, this time, it was because Lin Ye and his group encountered them that a battle ensued.”

”If we intercept them, then it would be a proactive attack. This could very well spark a major war between our two sects, and the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Su Han frowned, ”You mean we can only react passively and not take the initiative?”

The bearded man’s mouth twitched, not responding, but essentially acknowledging.

”Creation, cultivation base... these all need to be fought for by ourselves.”

Su Han spoke indifferently, ”A pie will never fall from the sky. I believe you understand what I mean.”

”Alright.”

Fang Lv directly said, ”This cannot be done, don’t even think about it.”

”Why not?” Su Han looked up.

”You should have some understanding of the situation of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, right?”

Fang Lv said, ”The Ming Surname Faction isn’t on good terms with the Pavilion Master. Once conflict with the Sect of the Supreme Shadow begins, internal collapse of the Pavilion is very likely. In other words, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion might not even possess the strength to wage war against them.”

”If we first take down the three armies of the Sect, we will,” Su Han said calmly.

”Take down the three armies of the Sect?”

Fang Lv couldn’t help but sneer, ”Are you joking? Do you even know the strength of these three armies? It’s not as simple as you say it is, that they can be vanquished just because you say so.”

”If I say they can be vanquished, they can,” Su Han stated with calm confidence.

”With just your cultivation base?”

Fang Lv couldn’t resist saying something but quickly took a breath, ”Sorry, I don’t mean to look down on you, but the strength of the three armies of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow is no worse than our Pavilion, it’s not as simple as you’re making it out to be. Your plan won’t work, and the corps commander won’t agree.”

Su Han slightly frowned, then turned to Wang Lin, ”Do as I say.”

”Yes...” Wang Lin had no choice but to agree.

”Why are you so stubborn?!” Fang Lv’s tone grew heavier.

”Stubborn?”

Su Han chuckled lightly, ”It’s not stubbornness, it’s confidence.”
