Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1446: Chapter 580: Flowing Clouds and Radiant Light

"Was it the State Preceptor who sent you to deal with me?"

This was the first question Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit asked after being released by Xu Jin.

Xu Jin slowly shook his head, "Just happened to."

"Just happened to?"

Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit looked astonished, "Eliminating an Eighth-Tier Military Lord like me, and it’s just happened to?"

"What else do you expect? Isn’t it done?"

"Indeed."

Chai Ce gave a bitter smile, "Was it you who broke through the Fire Cloud Star Domain? Was it you who also killed Star Officer Zhu Wenhai?"

Xu Jin nodded, and the bitter smile on Chai Ce’s face deepened, "The State Preceptor has hidden well, it seems he had suspected me for a long time."

"You military heads aren’t easy to move."

Upon hearing this, Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit showed a reminiscent expression, "Indeed, in the past two years, Dachen has changed too much. Before, I was indispensable, but now, it seems that without me, it doesn’t make much difference."

"What’s your relationship with the Baidou Divine Sect?" Xu Jin asked.

The reason for asking instead of directly using the Warm Dream Interrogation was mainly because many secrets might have Divine Soul Sealing, so preliminary inquiry was necessary.

"Why should I tell you?" Chai Ce sneered.

Xu Jin also sneered.

As he sneered, Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit initially twitched and then couldn’t help but cry out miserably as Xu Jin directly activated the Erosive Intent.

The torment lasted a full 15 minutes, and as Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit began howling miserably, Xu Jin finally stopped slowly.

"Can you talk now?" Xu Jin sneered.

With a miserable look, Chai Ce laughed instead, and his smile was as ghastly as a specter, "This bit of torture is nothing, my bones aren’t even loose yet, bring it on."

A strange look flashed in Xu Jin’s eyes.

He seems quite the tough character.

Another 15 minutes later, just as Xu Jin stopped, the ghastly laughter of Chai Ce rang out, "Why stop? Bring it on, continue, not enough!"

Xu Jin frowned, but did not proceed.

Since Chai Ce’s will is as solid as iron, there’s no need to waste time. Might as well directly use the Warm Dream Inquiry, at worst, scattering his soul completely.

However, before resorting to forced interrogation, Xu Jin still wanted to try once more.

"Chai Ce, enduring such pain, the Sect Hierarch of the Baidou Divine Sect can’t see it, right?

He is far on the Eight Desolate Continent and definitely can’t save you.

Isn’t your persistence meaningless?" Xu Jin said.

"Who said my persistence is for the Baidou Divine Sect?" Chai Ce sneered.

"Isn’t it?"

"Merely a matter of mutual need."

"And the collusion with Wei Xu of the Blood God Sect is also mutual need?"

"Naturally, otherwise, how could I break through to the Eighth Tier?"

"So, after your mutual needs, you’re still loyal to Dachen. Did I wrong you somehow?"

Chai Ce was silent for a while before saying, "If a man doesn’t work for his own sake, heaven and earth will destroy him."

"I’ve lost my patience." Xu Jin coldly said.

"Give me a chance, I want to see the State Preceptor." Chai Ce suddenly said.

"Reason?"

"I can let the State Preceptor take over the Mystic Tiger Army without a fight." After speaking, Chai Ce added, "You don’t understand military affairs, but the State Preceptor definitely does.

If I die, even if the State Preceptor and Marshal Mao were present, they would find it impossible to stabilize and take over the Mystic Tiger Army."

After contemplating for a few moments, Xu Jin said, "That’s not enough."

"The rest, I will only share upon seeing the State Preceptor.

Otherwise, you can continue; I am already doomed anyway." Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit laughed.

One cannot deny that Chai Ce still persuaded Xu Jin.

An hour later, Xu Jin returned to Yangdu Battle City.

With only State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao, Yangdu Battle City’s ten thousand elites were already stabilized.

Marshal Mao Yue was not seen.

But Xu Jin did see that another dozen heads appeared on the drill ground.

It seemed to be a forced suppression.

Upon seeing Xu Jin, the State Preceptor looked worried, "The front line Mystic Tiger Army has already learned of the Military Lord being taken down, and Marshal Mao has personally gone over to suppress it."

"State Preceptor, was I too hasty?"

Hearing this, Cheng Yuxiao shook his head, "On the contrary, you did very well, handling it swiftly.

Otherwise, battle would have already erupted by now.

Eliminating a threat like Chai Ce before a war is beneficial."

Xu Jin then handed over Chai Ce’s Primordial Spirit to State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao.

In this regard, Chai Ce did not deceive Xu Jin.

He proposed two conditions.

First is the fame after his death.

Second, the military personnel of his Chai family, relatives, the State Preceptor can deal with as he wishes, but he asks that the State Preceptor does not pursue punishment against the Chai family outside the military, nor harm Chai clan members without cause.

The price is that he will personally issue orders to the Generals of the Mystic Tiger Army and appoint a new Military Lord according to Cheng Yuxiao’s orders.

To allow Dachen to take over the Mystic Tiger Army with minimal cost.

Meanwhile, answer any questions, hand over the Sumeru Space, and then die swiftly.

Of course, it requires Cheng Yuxiao and Xu Jin to trigger the Primordial Spirit and make the Great Dao Oath for the conditions agreed upon.

Without much hesitation, Xu Jin and Cheng Yuxiao triggered the Primordial Spirit and made the Great Dao Oath as Chai Ce requested.

The Sumeru Space and such, killing him would yield it anyway.

The crucial point is seamless takeover of the Mystic Tiger Army, which is immensely important.

In the Mystic Tiger Army there are many of the Chai clan’s kin, all fiercely loyal, and under their incitement it’s uncertain how many of the Mystic Tiger Army would remain.

But a river of blood would be unavoidable.

Seeing Cheng Yuxiao and Xu Jin both made a Great Dao Oath, Chai Ce didn’t waste words, directly using the Star-picking Order to contact the front-line troops to explain.

He was deceived by the betraying Star River Battlefield Grand Marshal Wei Xu and then slain.

"State Preceptor, the successor for the Mystic Tiger Army, I will arrange directly, and they should be able to succeed smoothly." Chai Ce said.

Hearing this, State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao suddenly looked at Xu Jin.

Xu Jin, the King of Territory, is still a lone figure.

"He’s not suitable for now."

Chai Ce immediately disagreed, "There are rampant rumors in the Mystic Tiger Army that the King of Territory killed me, his presence there would only spark conflicts. For years I’ve led troops, quite effectively, one might say.
