I Attained Invincibility In The Real World-Chapter 412 - 260: Protection and Our Response
Chapter 412: Chapter 260: Protection and Our Response
Translator: 549690339
Accompanied by the actions of the Respected Elder and Xiang Li, the plan began.
Although Kyoto seemed to be peaceful on the surface,
shocking changes were quietly unfolding.
Those whose hearts and minds were controlled by the Respected Elder would not completely lose their senses.
Instead, at the depths of their minds, thoughts were directly implanted by the Respected Elder.
This thought would not make the controlled feel any different; they would only think it was an idea that came from their heart.
Each time they came into contact with others,
the same thought seeds would spread through physical contact.
As a result,
with the Martial Arts Association at the center,
the thought seeds of the Respected Elder spread out continuously.
Those controlled Sect Disciples began to return to their sects, controlling more low-rank disciples.
Association members in charge of intelligence and documents started contacting the Wu’an Bureau and other relevant departments, paving the way for the upcoming operation.
As for the thought seeds the common people received, they were different.
They would instinctively want to stay away from the outskirts of Kyoto.
Either they suddenly wanted to go shopping or simply didn’t want to stay at home.
Many people living on the outskirts of Kyoto began to move closer to the downtown area.
It seemed that only there could they feel a sense of reassurance.
The power of the Respected Elder could be called terrifying.
Not only were the spreading conditions extremely simple,
but through these seeds, the Respected Elder could also take control of the controlled person’s body at any time, occupy their thoughts, and even exert power through their body.
If there was a single drawback,
it would be that he could not control warriors with stronger strength or those who possessed spiritual power.
However, despite this,
the results this ability brought were quite impressive.
Thump!
At Yihe Gate,
Sun Yihe, hands folded behind his back,
looked at the men and women lying naked on the ground with a slightly gloomy expression.
He slowly turned his head to look at his side.
“You guys can’t stay out of trouble, can you?”
Seeing Sun Yihe’s gaze,
both Vermilion Bird and Zhang Yu looked up at the sky, as if there was something extremely attractive in the sky.
Their shameless appearance left Sun Yihe at a loss.
He let out a light sigh,
“Zhang Yu, take care of these people, and don’t let them leave the Yihe Gate territory.”
“Don’t come out of the room until dawn.”
“Huh? Why?”
Sun Yihe’s order left Zhang Yu puzzled.
He found his master’s behavior today seemed a bit unusual.
In the past,
Sun Yihe had never bothered with these trivial matters.
After all, the Seven Demon Mental Method of Yihe Gate was closely related to emotions.
But today,
Sun Yihe not only suddenly appeared to stop his party,
but also prevented his guests from leaving.
Even he himself was under direct house arrest.
What was going on?
Faced with the perplexed Zhang Yu, Sun Yihe obviously had no intention of explaining.
He simply turned his gaze towards Vermilion Bird.
“Put your clothes on and meet me on the mountain peak.”
Sun Yihe looked up and down Vermilion Bird with disdain.
“You’re almost eighty years old, and you have no shame.”
“No, Old Man Sun, where’s your face to say this, have you forgotten your past——”
Seeing Sun Yihe dare to belittle him, Vermilion Bird was upset right away.
He wasn’t Zhang Yu, who could be intimidated by this old boy.
Back when Sun Yihe was practicing secret skills, he played much more than Zhang Yu.
When it came down to it,
Sun Yihe was Vermilion Bird’s guide.
It was just that after he tasted the marrow and felt its benefits, Sun Yihe’s realm had already made some breakthroughs, and he stopped.
Seeing Vermilion Bird roll up his sleeves, ready to have a good debate with Sun Yihe,
Sun Yihe didn’t give him the chance at all.
His figure flashed,
vanished from his spot.
Leaving only a sentence, gently drifting by.
“I’ll be waiting for you at the top of the mountain.”
Vermilion Bird, with his mouth half-opened, could only close it helplessly.
He looked at Zhang Yu,
“If there’s nothing else, just do as your master said.”
Actually, seeing Sun Yihe’s previous expression,
Vermilion Bird had roughly guessed what had happened.
After leaving a few words for Zhang Yu,
his figure disappeared as well.
When he appeared again,
he had already arrived at the mountain peak where Sun Yihe lived.
In the courtyard,
three figures were already waiting early.
Besides Sun Yihe,
there were Li Wuji and Feng, who were responsible for taking care of Li Wuji.
Seeing this lineup,
Vermilion Bird’s expression also became serious.
“Has anything happened with the Respected Elder?”
In response to his inquiry,
Li Wuji nodded slightly.
“What now?”
“What can we say?”
“We will block the soldiers and cover the water with the earth.”
As always, Li Wuji,
did not say much.
His thoughts always stayed in his heart.
Those involved in the plan simply had to follow his rhythm.
Having known each other for decades, Vermilion Bird had long been accustomed to the other’s enigmatic personality.
“What do you need me to do?” Vermilion Bird asked directly, without much ado.
“You don’t need to worry about things here in Kyoto.”
“Go to Western China immediately and meet up with Chen Sheng.”
“Protect him.”
“And protect yourself.”
“As for the next step in the operation…”
“All you have to do is wait.”
“At the right time, you will know what to do.”
While in Kyoto,
Li Wuji had other arrangements to deal with Xiang Li and the people of Power Sect.
Vermilion Bird staying here would not have much impact on the battle.
At the same level, although the Power of Authority was more flexible and adaptable, and had stronger life-saving ability,
in terms of combat power, practitioners of secret skills that transformed the body with spiritual power, defying the laws of reality, were superior.
“Chen Sheng…”
Muttering Chen Sheng’s name was not Vermilion Bird,
but the puzzled Feng.
As Azure Dragon’s sister,
she had heard of the current top warriors.
Not only that,
she was also familiar with the level below the top warriors.
However, Chen Sheng’s name,
had never been mentioned to Feng by Li Wuji before.
She had also never heard of such a character in the Martial Arts Association.
She was naturally very curious as to why, at such a pivotal moment,
the other party would specifically send a top fighter like Vermilion Bird to protect an unknown figure.
Could it be… some hidden expert deep in the mountains?
That wasn’t right either.
If he’s a big shot, there’s no need to send people to protect him.
However,
Doubt remains.
Feng didn’t ask any questions.
She just stood quietly to the side, waiting for Li Wuji’s explanation.
In this plan, she only needs to follow Li Wuji’s instructions and play her part.
As for Vermilion Bird.
After Li Wuji finished speaking,
his face instantly turned gloomy.
“Old man, you…”
Vermilion Bird hesitated to speak.
He was well aware of Li Wuji’s personality.
His plans were always decisive, and there were few ambiguous arrangements like this one.
The reason for such an arrangement,
might be because Li Wuji didn’t have complete confidence in defeating the Respected Elder’s side.
However, he didn’t voice his doubts in the end.
Because Vermilion Bird knew well,
that he couldn’t contribute to the plotting at all.
As for strength, at this level, it wouldn’t be of much use either.
What he could do was continue to trust Li Wuji as always.
Believe that he could find a solution,
and, like the past few decades, lead everyone forward together.
“You be careful.”
Finally,
a thousand words turned into a single piece of advice.
“And you, old man.”
Vermilion Bird glared at Sun Yihe.
“I haven’t settled the matter of you showing off in front of your disciple just now.”
“You better fucking not die on me.”
He pointed a finger at Sun Yihe, gesturing.
Compared to the advice,
it looks more like a threat.
“Go to hell.”
“I won’t die even if you go back to the womb.”
Sun Yihe was not polite at all.
With his hands behind his back, he was grinning and spewing obscenities at Vermilion Bird.
Both of them hated to create an emotional atmosphere.
Even now,
there was no intention of having a friendly conversation.
At this moment,
listening to Vermilion Bird’s advice,
Li Wuji nodded slightly.
His voice rang in Vermilion Bird’s mind.
“According to the information I received,”
“The two Sun brothers from the Power Sect have already set off for Western China.”
“On the side of the Holy Sect, Azure Dragon as well as White Tiger will also accompany them.”
!!!
Upon hearing this,
Vermilion Bird’s pupils constricted. 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶
What a joke.
He knew about the Sun brothers, of course.
Xiang Li’s notorious henchmen.
In terms of combat power, they were no weaker than him.
No need to mention Azure Dragon,
Only with White Tiger would Vermilion Bird dare to say with certainty that he could deal with them.
But the other three…
Vermilion Bird was a bit confused.
Chen Sheng was strong,
but was it really necessary to go to such lengths to capture him?!
“Chen Sheng… his talent may far exceed our imagination.”
“Such a good seedling shouldn’t die in infighting.”
“The others, even if they were subdued by Xiang Li, wouldn’t be in mortal danger.”
“But Chen Sheng is different. Xiang Li is the kind to hold grudges, and since Chen Sheng killed his disciple, he obviously won’t let Chen Sheng live.”
“The Sun brothers must be going after Chen Sheng’s life.”
“In case of danger, don’t hesitate to run. Do you understand?”
Listening to the voice in his mind,
Vermilion Bird’s face became serious, and he nodded slightly.
His mission was much more difficult than he imagined.
Wanting to save Chen Sheng from the hands of those four and escape with him…
A direct confrontation was absolutely out of the question.
He had to get there before them.
Thinking of this,
Vermilion Bird didn’t want to delay any longer.
“Let’s go.”
Too lazy to listen to Sun Yihe’s swearing,
Vermilion Bird waved his hand and prepared to leave.
The fiery red wings spread out behind him,
Lightly flapping,
Vermilion Bird instantly turned into a flaming trail, shooting up into the sky.
“Speaking of this kid,”
“Isn’t he showing off a bit too much?”
“Is he so afraid that others won’t see his wings?”
Sun Yihe complained on top of the mountain peak.
As soon as his words fell,
The trail vanished in an instant,
As if even the Vermilion Bird who left heard his complaint.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly,
He took a deep look at his departing friend.
Sun Yihe retracted his gaze and looked at Li Wuji.
“The Power Sect has already taken action.”
“We shouldn’t delay any longer.”
Having said that,
Seeing Li Wuji nod,
Sun Yihe’s eyes narrowed slightly, a black light gradually emerging in them.
With his hands behind his back, he began to walk towards the stone bench by the chess table.
With each step,
A man who looked eight points similar to him would appear at his previous position.
The only difference was,
Compared to Sun Yihe’s old age,
These men looked much younger.
They came in various shapes and sizes.
Some were extremely obese,
some were extremely slender.
They had various expressions on their faces.
Some were full of anger, with bulging veins,
Others had red faces, their eyes full of endless lust.
Sun Yihe took seven steps,
Behind him, seven men appeared.
Standing in front of the stone bench,
he waved his hand gently.
In an instant,
The seven figures disappeared, heading off in different directions.
Sun Yihe sat down slowly, looking at Li Wuji.
“Before Xiang Li comes knocking,”
“How about a game?”
He pointed to the chessboard in front of him.
“Sure.”
Li Wuji chuckled,
“I’ll torture you first.”
