Chapter 1902: Chapter 802: Trust and Gifts
"State Preceptor, before this wave of enemy invasion, did you sense any unusual phenomena in the world?" Xu Jin asked.
Without mentioning it, Xu Jin’s inquiry sparked National Master Cheng Yuxiao’s recollection.
"Indeed, a month ago! That night, while I was in deep meditation, I suddenly had a premonition that the world had changed. But upon ascending to observe, I couldn’t detect anything unusual.
It merely felt as though heaven and earth had become more complete," Cheng Yuxiao said.
"That matches up!"
"State Preceptor, was the starship the second wave of enemies rode in destroyed by your group?"
"No, it wasn’t."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuxiao showed a look of surprise, "The starship was already heavily damaged when it entered the Kunling Domain, with dozens of corpses inside and still lingering with terrifying sword intent!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin’s heart stirred, suddenly thinking of something, and he glanced at the sky.
If his guess was correct, that senior uncle really was a trustworthy person!
Based on this known information, Xu Jin immediately took out the Daoist Embryo of a Tenth Rank Little Star Monarch he had captured and began the Warm Dream Inquiry.
Only by doing this could he gain more useful information.
A dozen breaths later, Xu Jin’s expression turned grave.
It wasn’t an accident, but premeditated.
The Tenth Rank Little Star Monarch he captured was named Liu Zhibai, a subordinate of the Sea Fen True Monarch from the Hai Fen Realm, a minor Star Monarch of no significance.
He only knew that the first wave was meant to attack the Kunling Domain but didn’t know what unexpected event caused their full annihilation!
Then the second wave came out, consisting of a Three Tribulation True Monarch, two Second Tribulation True Monarchs, and twelve Tenth Rank Star Monarchs.
However, before their starship reached the Kunling Domain, it was met with a terrifying attack from the galaxy.
Sword light rained down from the heavens. If it weren’t for the intervention of several True Monarchs, the starship would have been nearly destroyed.
The three True Monarchs charged out of the galaxy, heading towards the expert who attacked from within the galaxy. Yet, even so, the mysterious expert hidden in some part of the galaxy continued to unleash sword light, decisively cutting down eleven of their Tenth Rank Star Monarchs aboard the starship.
Ultimately, under the cover of the three True Monarchs, the Little Star Monarch Liu Zhibai from the Hai Fen Realm, with the remaining elites, struggled to maintain the damaged starship with Star Power and once again broke into the Kunling Domain.
Beyond that, he knew nothing more.
"Hai Fen Realm!"
Xu Jin frowned deeply, as the captured Little Star Monarch Liu Zhibai held too low a rank in the Hai Fen Realm to know crucial information.
So he couldn’t ascertain why the Hai Fen Realm wanted to invade the Kunling Domain?
Was it an unexpected probe?
Or an order?
Or something else?
Finding out all of this might require capturing a Star Monarch or even a powerful Eleventh Rank True Monarch to uncover the truth.
A few breaths later, Xu Jin directly sent a Starlight Transmission to You Yu True Monarch, [Old Fish, how have you been lately?]
*****
On Black Tower Island, You Yu True Monarch sat cross-legged at the top of the Black Tower, watching the three True Monarchs retreating far away, with a frown.
Compared to the previous encounter with a One Tribulation True Monarch, the three True Monarchs appearing this time were considerably stronger.
He only managed to severely injure one, yet his original intention to kill was foiled as the three joined forces to withstand his attack and retreated.
His role, however, kept him from pursuing.
After all, the location of Black Tower Island had been briefly exposed in the galaxy, and if he pursued, falling for their strategy to lure him away would spell trouble.
Nonetheless, his frown wasn’t for the present but for concerns about the future!
Last time, the team charging through the galaxy toward the Kunling Domain was intercepted and stopped by him, and he even slew a One Tribulation True Monarch and several Star Monarchs.
He didn’t expect another wave would come this time, several times more powerful than before.
There were already three True Monarchs.
This time, he barely stopped the main force, but what about next time?
This time it’s a Three Tribulation True Monarch; what if next time they send a Four Tribulation or Five Tribulation True Monarch? He wouldn’t be able to stop it.
If a Six Tribulation or Seven Tribulation one came with a group, he would be in big trouble himself.
But even more troublesome is failing a promise made to a disciple-grandchild.
That would be utterly embarrassing.
Therefore, You Yu True Monarch immediately contacted Emperor Fenghua.
[Nephew-disciple, your uncle has done his utmost, having blocked two waves already! If a Five or Six Tribulation True Monarch comes next, and with a group, I won’t be able to stop them!
By then, if they invade the Kunling Domain, it’s not for lack of effort!
It’s best you think of a way quickly, see if you can arrange for someone to come support me.
Given the formation, there’s certainly another wave, but alone, I surely can’t hold the line.]
[Uncle, Xu Jin has already returned. First communicate with him about the specific situation in the Kunling Domain, and then we’ll discuss support arrangements.]
[What, that little rascal has already returned?]
You Yu True Monarch, upon receiving the Starlight Transmission, was taken aback and instantly became somewhat angry, having fought and given his all here to fulfill a promise to the lad, but the lad returned without notifying him.
Truly heartless.
And utterly ungrateful!
With a move of his Divine Thought, You Yu True Monarch hastily intended to scold through the Thousand Star Jade Order, but just as he was about to begin, Xu Jin’s Starlight Transmission arrived, momentarily holding back You Yu True Monarch’s anger.
[Damned, I’m risking my life fighting for you every day, nearly at death’s door!]
In Kunling Domain, Xu Jin, receiving the Starlight Transmission, was taken aback, sensing the gravity of the situation, [Old Fish, activate your Thousand Star Jade Order, pull me over.]
Xu Jin felt he needed to personally make the trip.
A few breaths later, a vast spatial fluctuation emanated from the Thousand Star Jade Order.
Simultaneously, on Black Tower Island, You Yu True Monarch was making his Daoist robe look tattered, with a hint of blood at the corners of his mouth, making himself appear pitiful and beleaguered.
Just as he finished, he suddenly realized.
"Bah, I’m the senior uncle, how can I be so weak?
It’s enough that I give my all, but I mustn’t lower my standard!"
With a flash of starlight, the robe renewed and the blood marks vanished, while he adopted a stern expression.
In the spatial fluctuation, Xu Jin’s form appeared on Black Tower Island.
As Xu Jin appeared, You Yu True Monarch gave a sidelong glance, immediately scolding, "You ungrateful little brat! While I’ve been here fighting wave after wave of True Monarchs with my sword.
You, on the other hand, have returned to the Kunling Domain without a word to me!
Aren’t you afraid I’ll be slain by those True Monarch bastards?
Having a disciple-grandchild like you, what misfortune for eight lifetimes of ancestors..."
Suddenly, You Yu True Monarch’s words stopped abruptly, as he saw in Xu Jin’s hand an item exuding innate aura, his eyes widened.
"Old Fish, I’ve returned from afar. How could I not bring you a gift? Isn’t this a prepared gift for you?"
At these words, You Yu True Monarch’s voice began to tremble, "Not... you’re saying, this Gold Series Innate Treasure Material is... for me?"
