Eternal life begins with saving my clan-Chapter 280: Under current - Plans to Sabotage Celestial Army.
While Su Yen, the Prefecture Lord, and the city lords were having their meeting, another meeting was taking place inside the Prefecture capital.
In a secluded part of the outer city, inside an ordinary-looking house, a group of clan masters gathered for discussion in hushed voices.
"How is it?" the Yu clan master asked.
"Everything is going according to plan. Before the governor's army arrives, we will sabotage and kill most of their elite soldiers," Patriarch Xu responded.
Inside the dimly lit room, there were ten clan masters gathered. They were the clan masters that refused to submit to the rule of their younger generation, joining the Celestial Army.
Previously, they thought it was impossible for the Celestial Heavenly Sect to pull it off. To their surprise, they did it so easily that it left them dumbfounded.
Some of the spies they planted in the newly formed Celestial Army sent pictures of the army to them and the strict training they were undergoing.
With all this, they realized the Celestial Heavenly sect was not like the usual power they knew.
Filled with jealousy and greed, they pushed their agenda forward with firm determination.
Now, they have planted thousands of spies in the army, ready to respond to their call at any moment.
"Have you found a way to get their instructor to our side?" Patriarch Yu asked.
"No. All our men were killed with no exception every time they moved closer to them," another patriarch responded.
Listening to this, all the clan masters were surprised. This was the first time they heard of such a ruthless action against bribery.
To them, they believed everyone could be bought as long as you gave them the right price.
But now, they realized they were wrong. They've come up with many mouth-watering rewards that would move even the most hardened warrior when they heard.
Alas, everything proved abortive.
"How should we respond to this?" Patriarch Fang asked.
Patriarch Fang was a man from humble beginnings, but with his smart mind and acumen for business, he grew from nothing to one of the wealthiest people in the capital.
His greediness knew no bounds.
"How about we kill one of them and have our men replace them?" a man suggested.
"Is that even possible?"
"Why is it not possible?" he continued. "They only have a cultivation of Peak Qi Refinement stage. As long as we send a Foundation Building realm warrior, it would be easy to take their place."
Listening to this, a bright smile appeared when they realized the plan was visible.
"Good. Send fifty of our death soldiers," Patriarch Yu commanded.
"Should we move to the next stage?" Patriarch Xu announced.
"Don't worry. I'm already on it. As from tomorrow, the price of everything will be inflated," Patriarch Fang responded with an evil grin.
This was his area of expertise. Apart from sabotaging the army from getting the resources for the war, he would also rake in a massive profit from this inflation.
"Good." A bright smile appeared on Patriarch Fu's face. "Don't worry, when this is over and we take over the prefecture…." His voice trailed off, and his smile disappeared. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Watching his sudden change in countenance, all the clan masters creased their brows and looked at each other with bafflement.
"Right now, I just received an urgent news." His voice was grave.
"What is it?" Patriarch Xu demanded.
"The Sect Master of the Celestial Heavenly Sect has just unveiled a powerful armor," he took as he was processing what he just read.
"This is not just any armor. Anyone with the armor could fight across realms."
"What!" They gasped in shock, their eyes widened.
"Is that even possible?!" a clan master asked in shock.
"Possible or not, it has been unveiled," he paused, and a deep frown crept up his face slowly.
"If they deploy this armor against the Governor's army, the outcome of the war will be unknown. We must do something immediately," he said, staring intently at the faces of the clan masters.
A few minutes ago, they thought they had everything in control, but now, they were back to square one.
In an army, the highest population were soldiers in the Qi Refinement realm, while those in the Foundation Building realm and Core Refinement realm were few.
Even though the war would be decided by those in the Foundation Building Realm and Core Refinement realm, the impact of those in the Qi Refinement was not small at all.
Now, with the introduction of armor that would allow them to fight across realms, that was an overkill.
Patriarch Fang was still stunned by the fact that an armor that could allow a warrior to fight across realms had appeared, but couldn't help but ask.
"Patriarch Yu, did you get this news from a trusted source?"
Hearing this, Patriarch Yu was furious. "What do you mean? Do you think I would dare joke with such an important matter?"
"Just curious, that's all. Before we change our plans, we need to be sure this came from a trusted source," Patriarch Fang responded, not intimidated by Patriarch Yu's gaze.
"It came from a trusted source," he responded firmly. "Instead of doubting my source, we should be thinking about how to destroy all the armors."
"Can we know the elite soldiers that will use the armors? If we know them, we can either kill them or pull them to our side," a clan master suggested.
"We don't know. Everything about the Celestial Army is kept under close wraps," Patriarch Xu responded.
"We don't need to worry about the armor. We need to focus on the elite soldiers. As long as we find out about the elite soldiers, we should send death soldiers in the Half-step Core Refining realm to wipe them off," Patriarch Fang announced.
Hearing such a ruthless response, everyone inside the room sucked in a cold breath.
Even though they were shocked by his ruthlessness, they still nodded their heads in agreement.
"Good. I will provide the death soldiers for the mission," he announced, and was about to smile when he received another piece of news. Find more chapters on novelbuddy.com
"What! Impossible!" Patriarch Yu shouted, banging the table as he got to his feet.
