Chapter 685: Chapter 377: Trade and Rescue Operation_3
In the Spiritual Martial World, my strength could only evenly match my own, and I might not even be a match for Lie Yan.
Where did I get the qualifications to lead them to complete the mission?
Just because the other party is a Breakthrough Limit, can they fully exert their strength on other planets?
The problem is… the enemy is also a Breakthrough Limit.
And they are capable of easily overpowering Long Aotian at the Starburst Level Apex, such that he couldn’t even resist.
At the very least, they must be of Galaxy Level, right?
Therefore,
the words Shi Jian transmitted to Lie Yan were filled with worry for this mission.
“There’s no need to worry.”
“The King makes his decisions for a reason.”
Upon hearing this,
Shi Jian’s expression fell, and his shoulders drooped powerlessly.
As the earliest two among The Four Great Martial Divines, Lie Yan and You Ren had always trusted the Spiritual Martial King unconditionally.
Even if the Spiritual Martial King asked them to die, they would probably not hesitate to slit their own throats.
Though I had anticipated this answer,
actually hearing it inevitably made Shi Jian worry about the future.
I am still young.
I don’t want to die so early.
If it’s really not going well… I’ll just slip away.
Thinking to this point,
Shi Jian wore a thoughtful look, occasionally glancing over at Chen Sheng and the other two, deep in thought.
Now,
three of The Four Great Martial Divines have already gathered.
However,
since all of them are of Starburst Level, traveling thousands of miles in an instant is not difficult.
Even if Chang Mu set off late,
Chen Sheng believed they wouldn’t have to wait much longer.
Sure enough,
after just about one minute’s time,
when Chen Sheng felt something and looked up to the skyline,
he saw a verdant glow rapidly approaching.
The magnitude of its arrival was more impressive than Shi Jian’s thunder, to say the least.
It seemed that the newcomer was in a great hurry.
Whoosh!
Locks of black hair were raised in midair.
The gauzy dress spun gracefully around like a blooming lotus, pure and elegant.
“Have you located Aotian’s whereabouts?”
“Where is he now? How are things? Is he in any immediate danger?”
The woman’s face was filled with urgency.
One of The Four Great Martial Divines, Chang Mu, now appeared before them as the cool and distant woman.
Upon landing,
she didn’t even greet Chen Sheng before hurriedly questioning Lie Yan about Long Aotian’s situation.
“First, offer proper greetings to our guest.”
Lie Yan didn’t answer the question.
He just gave a slightly helpless reminder.
Upon hearing this,
Chang Mu finally noticed Chen Sheng.
“Qing He has seen our distinguished guest.”
Manners match the guise.
In the instant that Qing He looked at Chen Sheng, her previously concerned expression quickly reverted to her default coolness.
She nodded slightly in a somewhat perfunctory greeting,
then turned her head back to inquire about the specific circumstances of Long Aotian.
Seeing this scene,
Chen Sheng remembered Lie Yan had recently told him that Chang Mu was also one of Long Aotian’s numerous close female friends.
It seems that the Spiritual Martial King, this grandson… is quite the romantic.
Just as Qing He was inquiring,
all personnel involved in the mission had arrived.
After obtaining Chen Sheng’s consent,
Lie Yan began to emphasize the key points of the mission.
“It seems someone is deliberately concealing it.”
“Even when the King himself expended effort to calculate, he could only determine its approximate location in the universe.”
“The specifics, we will need to observe for ourselves.”
“Therefore, I need to remind all of you,”
At this point,
he deliberately glanced at Qing He and Shi Jian, the Thunder Envoy, his gaze carrying a subtle warning.
“This mission is primarily for reconnaissance.”
“We all must follow Chen Sheng’s instructions.”
“Those who act rashly will not be treated leniently. Do you understand?”
“Understood.”
The two individuals whom Lie Yan was particularly attentive to responded quickly.
But what they truly thought,
only they knew.
All Lie Yan could do was help Chen Sheng keep them in line as much as possible.
After all,
their abilities were still needed for this mission.
“Then let’s proceed… set out.”
