Chapter 675 - 605: Preparations Before the Battle
Bai Lingfeng spoke directly to the topic, without any unnecessary words.
Recently, Celestial Cloud Path has been very calm. Whether it’s the Demon Pseudo-Gods outside or in the Ancient Battlefield ruins, there hasn’t been much commotion.
But this doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening in the Forbidden Area.
The Forbidden Area is the only place not influenced by the outside, which makes its people very busy, forming a stark contrast with others.
Especially Bai Lingfeng, who, as the Forbidden Land Golden Envoy, is constantly busy traveling to and from various Forbidden Areas.
It’s safe to say there’s not a day of leisure for him.
And while he was still busy in the Forbidden Area, he suddenly received a message from Li Moyun, telling him that Qin An had something important to discuss with him.
Bai Lingfeng thinks highly of Qin An, having promoted him single-handedly to the position of Forbidden Land Envoy.
Therefore, when Li Moyun said Qin An had something urgent, Bai Lingfeng didn’t think much of it. He immediately set aside everything and hurriedly returned.
Bai Lingfeng, without any delay, wanted to know immediately what the matter was.
The sooner he solved it, the sooner he could go back to performing his duties in the Forbidden Area.
Qin An glanced at the flickering oil lamp on the table, rhythmically tapping it, then after a slight pause, he told Bai Lingfeng about the plans of three major Forbidden Areas targeting him.
Bai Lingfeng was just sipping a cup of tea when he heard Qin An’s words and froze mid-motion, looking at Qin An with astonishment, as if seeing him for the first time.
"You just said that at least three major Forbidden Area people are preparing to deal with you, and as soon as you enter the Forbidden Area, they will definitely strike, especially with a Celestial Demon Envoy behind them?"
He found it hard to believe because this news was shocking even to him.
Qin An nodded confidently, saying, "This information is something I got from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, so it’s very reliable. If this is true, the next time I enter the Forbidden Area, those three people’s plans will likely be set in motion."
Bai Lingfeng fell silent and said nothing.
Qin An also said no more, patiently waiting.
After about half an incense stick of time, Bai Lingfeng looked up at Qin An, asking, "You’ve asked me here and told me such grave news, surely you have a countermeasure to discuss with me, so just say it—how do you plan to respond?"
He knew Qin An’s temperament well. Given Qin An’s character, he wouldn’t have summoned him back to the Evil Extermination Bureau just to deliver news.
And if he came back to the Evil Extermination Bureau, it must mean that Qin An has a plan and wants to discuss it face-to-face.
After a brief pause, Qin An said, "Originally, they know secretly while I am in the open. Now it’s they in the open, and I am hidden. Since they plan to deal with me, I might as well turn the tables. If I can annihilate the traitors of these three Forbidden Areas in one sweep, it would be a great boon for the Evil Extermination Bureau."
These words made Bai Lingfeng suddenly understand.
He was smart to begin with; otherwise, he wouldn’t have risen from a minor Daoist Official to the position of Forbidden Land Golden Envoy.
Therefore, with just a little prompt, he grasped Qin An’s meaning.
Bai Lingfeng said solemnly, "What you’re saying is, you want me to contact a large number of Forbidden Land Golden Envoys, so that when you undertake your next mission, you and others can enter the Forbidden Area together."
"If the enemies really send traitors from three Forbidden Areas, we will be prepared, able to confront them in the Forbidden Area, and even keep them there?"
Qin An nodded without hesitation and said, "Exactly, that’s what I mean."
He had considered many methods before, but all were somewhat risky. The most direct and effective method was to organize a large number of Forbidden Land Golden Envoys to engage in battle.
If he hadn’t known this information earlier, Qin An might really have been trapped. But now that he knows, he might as well use the strategy against them.
He wasn’t new to the Celestial Cloud Path. Not only is his name well-known there, but he also has a reputation in the Forbidden Area, supported by Bai Lingfeng.
Since he has these resources and manpower, he intends to use them and use them well.
Bai Lingfeng once again fell into deep thought, finally raising his head after a long time, saying, "This method should be feasible, at least I think so."
"However, before implementing it, I need to discuss with other Forbidden Land Golden Envoys to decide the number of people and the specific time. I will have Li Moyun inform you. How does this sound?"
According to Qin An’s proposal, this mobilization of Forbidden Land Golden Envoys would involve many.
And many Forbidden Land Golden Envoys already have their own roles, so a sudden mobilization would likely disrupt the current order and, if mishandled, could even lead to worse consequences.
Therefore, Bai Lingfeng couldn’t make such a decision alone. He must meet with other Forbidden Land Golden Envoys to discuss it.
Details must be set for deploying more people, needing to find a time since not every Forbidden Land Golden Envoy is available.
Qin An nodded and said, "Time is not something I lack. I can wait, but can Lord Bai give me a rough timeline?"
He can indeed wait because, currently, for all professions to reach level twenty-two and then to cultivate the Scholar Profession to level twenty-three is a tremendously long process.
