Chapter 393 The Ninth-Level Soul Master Who Died in Frustration.
As soon as Wu Xuan and the others returned to the Mingyue Hotel after the semi-finals, Xu Jiujiu and Vina, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to knock on Shrek's war room.
Tomorrow's so-called final is meaningless. If we don't stab the Sun Moon Empire in the back now and run away, we won't be able to escape after the competition ends. No wonder the two princesses are in such a hurry.
"Captain Wu Xuan, since you agreed to our assassination plan, why can't you join forces with us to break through?" Xu Jiujiu said with slight dissatisfaction. She had been happy for a long time when Wu Xuan directly agreed to their assassination plan, but for some reason, Wu Xuan just wouldn't agree to join forces with them to break out of Mingdu.
"Yes, Captain Wu, with the combined strength of our two great empires, the Body Sect, and your Shrek Academy, we are confident that we can break through Xu Tianran's defenses no matter how tight they are," Vina advised from the side.
"Princess, you don't need to waste your breath on me. My willingness to cooperate with your assassination is already the limit. As for the subsequent alliance, have you considered how big a target it would be if our major forces joined forces to break through? The commander of the Sun Moon Empire isn't stupid; how could he not take action? Therefore, I still believe that our separate breakout is the best solution," Wu Xuan said calmly.
The conversation between the three parties was not very pleasant. After seeing that no matter how they tried to persuade Wu Xuan, he remained the same, the two reluctantly gave up after a long time. The three parties then finalized the details of tonight's operation, and then the two got up to take their leave.
Watching the conference room door close, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but curl her lip: "Their plan is quite ruthless. Now they want to attack Mingde Hall and assassinate Xu Tianran, the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire. Aren't they afraid of ending up with nothing?"
Ye Guyi crossed his legs and said, "I can only say that they have placed the heavy responsibility of assassinating Xu Tianran on our shoulders. Now that Zhongli Wu, Zhang Peng and the woman in black, the three top combat forces of the Holy Spirit Sect have all left Mingdu, it is really hard to say whether it will succeed in the end."
"That makes sense. If we successfully assassinate Xu Tianran and simultaneously capture Mingde Hall, the Sun Moon Empire will inevitably descend into internal strife. With the leader of the pro-war faction dead, the war will be indefinitely postponed. At the same time, the large amount of soul tool blueprints and data obtained from capturing Mingde Hall will directly and significantly improve the soul tool technology of both countries, although they still won't be able to catch up with the Sun Moon Empire in the short term." Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly.
"Wow! There are so many twists and turns in this?" Xiao Xiao couldn't help but tap her head.
Wang Qiu'er, on the other hand, also expressed her inability to understand so many human thoughts, so although she was also present in the conversation, she couldn't get a word in edgewise.
"Of course, it's not just them, Wu Xuan also has a backup plan!" Ye Guyi couldn't help but laugh.
"What backup plan?" Wang Qiu'er asked Wu Xuan curiously.
Upon hearing someone ask, Ye Guyi immediately became interested and looked at everyone, saying, "Let me tell you, a few days ago I was also kept in the dark by that guy Wu Xuan. Every night he asked me to go and make connections to smuggle rare metals. I didn't know what he needed so many for. It wasn't until two days ago that I found out that he heard from somewhere that there was a huge military warehouse in Mingdu, and that the warehouse was hidden in this smuggling operation."
"Did you find the warehouse?" Ma Xiaotao asked curiously.
"Of course I found it, and I'll be making a trip there before the assassination." Wu Xuan leaned back on the sofa, a cold glint in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiu'er's light blue eyes lit up, and she became eager to try. What she longed for most was an adventurous life, and Wu Xuan's operation was undoubtedly full of excitement.
Seeing the girls' eyes light up, Wu Xuan coughed lightly and said, "This is a covert operation. Too many people will easily expose us, so only Gu Yi and I will go this time. Although you can't go, I have an important task for you. If I don't return in time before the assassination, you will take my spiritual clone with you. The safety of my clone will be in your hands."
Wu Xuan did this to create an alibi, so that the Sun Moon Empire would never suspect him.
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao's previously somewhat depressed expression vanished. Compared to the so-called adventure, she didn't want to see Wu Xuan get hurt.
"Junior Brother Wu, don't worry. With me and Xiao Tao here, even if a Title Douluo comes, we can protect your clone." Zhang Lexuan said, her eyes filled with determination.
"."
As evening fell, the setting sun cast a unique glow upon this metal capital. However, Wu Xuan and Ye Guyi, who had come with him, had no time to appreciate this beautiful scene.
Rather than detonating this so-called war reserve warehouse and causing widespread devastation, he chose to empty this enormous amount of resources. This indirectly saved the safety of the lower-class citizens in the capital.
"The shift change is over. You all know the sentries in the shadows now. We each have four." Wu Xuan's clear voice rang out from the dark street next to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
"Okay!" Ye Guyi nodded in agreement.
"Second Soul Skill, Light Breeze!" With a flash of Wu Xuan's second-ranked Soul Ring, Wu Xuan and Ye Guyi instantly disappeared from their original positions.
"Thud! Thud!" Amidst the flashing blades, the sentries and guards outside the military warehouse were all killed.
Following this secluded path, Wu Xuan and his companion soon arrived at the courtyard outside the man they had followed.
"Hmm~! There's only one level nine Soul Master on this ground for now. I'll go and eliminate him." This was the result Wu Xuan arrived at after waking up the fast-sleeping Tianmeng and confirming the situation with his aura perception.
With a light leap, Wu Xuan instantly entered the courtyard.
Before Wu Xuan even got close to the room, he heard rustling sounds and moaning sounds. Wu Xuan's face instantly darkened. Damn it, he came here to steal and still ran into this kind of thing. Those two scoundrels.
Without any hesitation, Wu Xuan sensed the two intertwined figures, raised his hand and unleashed two beams of annihilation light. Immediately afterward, the Soul-Breaking Spear shone with a third, sharp light!
Ignore all energy-based defenses.
The two figures, still groaning and moaning, could never have imagined their impending death. Their throats were instantly dissolved by the light of annihilation, rendering them unable to utter a sound. Wu Xuan's hurled Soul-Shattering Spear followed closely behind the light of annihilation, precisely piercing through the two who were still connected.
The Life Devouring Technique caused the ninth-level Soul Master's body to stiffen instantly, rendering him unable to even twitch his fingers. He died in bed with his partner just like that.
Wu Xuan slowly pushed the door open and entered. What he saw was a naked man and woman. The man's eyes were wide open in disbelief that someone would dare to kill him, while the woman looked terrified, not understanding why she would lose her life just because she came out to do some business.
