Chapter 1649: The Horn Before Revenge (2)
It could be said that a large part of the reason why the rulers of the four countries could sit in their current position was because they had tacitly allowed it. If the rulers of the four countries dared to be disrespectful to them in the slightest, the Broken Star Palace could easily replace the owner of the throne.
“My lords, since Shen Yanxiao is being so reckless, why don’t we just get rid of her?” Luo Lin suggested. Shen Yanxiao was currently a second class expert. In the eyes of the people of the Brilliance Continent, her skills might not be too bad, but it was nothing worth mentioning in front of the Broken Star Palace. Even though Shen Yanxiao had the protection of several mythical beasts and holy beasts, the Broken Star Palace also had a magic array that can target magical beasts. Wouldn’t it be an easy job to break Shen Yanxiao’s left and right arms before eradicating her?”
Sage Feng slightly frowned. “Sir Ouyang has stated that he wants to keep Shen Yanxiao alive. If we were to take action, I’m afraid it would be hard to explain to Sir Ouyang. Right now, we still have to rely on Sir Ouyang’s transplant skills, so it is not wise to be on bad terms with him. Moreover, how capable is Shen Yanxiao? The two wars she had gone through have caused great damage to the forces under her command. With her current strength, she is incapable of causing any harm to our Broken Star Palace, and keeping her alive is merely to give Sir Ouyang an explanation. The Palace Master has ordered that all members of the Broken Star Palace must increase their strength to the greatest extent for the next two months. After the next two months, we will personally take action and eliminate all of Shen Yanxiao’s forces.”
For Sage Feng, it did not take much effort to kill Shen Yanxiao. The reason why they did not take any action was entirely for the sake of Ouyang Huanyu’s face. However, Shen Yanxiao’s arrogant words had indeed infuriated the Broken Star Palace. If the Broken Star Palace did not take any action, it was uncertain if the four countries would stay obedient.
Therefore, they intended to personally act and use the destruction of the Forsaken Land to alarm the four countries so that they would know who had the final say in the Brilliance Continent.
“Then we still have to keep Shen Yanxiao alive?” Luo Ke’s eyes flickered. He had joined the Broken Star Palace not too early. At that time, the Broken Star Palace was already hidden in the Brilliance Continent, so he had not been able to make a name for himself. This was his biggest regret. So, when he heard that the Palace Master wanted to siege the Forsaken Land in the near future, he was eager to give it a try.
“Of course, but…” Sage Feng paused for a moment as a trace of viciousness surfaced in his eyes. “Mister Ouyang only wants Shen Yanxiao alive. After we destroy the Forsaken Land, we can capture her and bring her to the Broken Star Palace. Even though she is only a Second-Class Expert, her physique as a dual-cultivator is pretty good. I believe the effect would be better if we use the First Origin Pills she produced.”
A single transplant would not cause instant death. Sage Feng was rather scheming. He wanted to squeeze out all of Shen Yanxiao’s remaining value before handing her in.
From his tone, it was as if capturing Shen Yanxiao and destroying the Forsaken Land was a piece of cake.
Little did they know that the ‘lamb to be slaughtered’ he mentioned was quietly standing by their side and listening to their despicable plans with an expressionless face.
Shen Yanxiao sneered internally. The Broken Star Palace was quite shameless. Killing her comrades and seizing her strength? Did they really treat her as a piece of meat on a chopping board that could be slaughtered at will?
Unfortunately for them, she was Shen Yanxiao, not some random person.. Since the Broken Star Palace dared to have designs on her, then she did not have to be polite with them!
