Chapter 329 - Discussion (I)
Time flew like a flowing river, and it was soon evening.
\'Just a few more hours.\'
In his rooms, Ye Tian Yun opened his eyes after cultivating for the whole day.
He was waiting for the sky to darken to sneak out and assess the arrays throughout the city and look for possible escape routes.
After all, there were two Core Formation Realm cultivators, and considering the Devil Sect, now there were three of them.
Even though Ye Tian Yun had the confidence of escaping from their grasp, he didn\'t wish to take any stupid action and end up turning into a pile of meat.
After all, he wasn\'t the only one with trump cards. Those old cultivators had already seen the nature of the world, and they definitely had something hidden in their pockets that they regarded as their trump card.
He was waiting for the night because if he sneaked out in the day, he might get himself in trouble if the cultivators from the Devil Sect called him out, and he was not in the room.
*knock* *knock
Just then, someone from the outside called out.
"Young Master, you have been called to the dining hall. Please follow me."
\'Ah, isn\'t this what I was just thinking about?\'
Ye Tian Yun smiled and stood up.
After opening the gate, he found a guard standing respectfully by the entrance.
Seeing Ye Tian Yun nod at him, the guard moved, and both of them headed for the dining hall.
Inside the dining table, a huge table was arranged, and there were many chairs around it.
This aroma of delicacies wafted through Ye Tian Yun\'s nose as soon as he stepped inside the room.
\'Nice.\'
He observed that only three people were sitting at the table as the servants began to serve food.
Clan Head Jia Lei Shan gestured at Ye Tian Yun to take a seat.
After Ye Tian Yun took his seat, the Elder turned his head towards him and asked, "Shu Xian, once we\'re done with the dinner, follow me to the Main Hall. We have something important to discuss."
Ye Tian Yun gave a surprised expression and then lightly nodded.
\'It was about time.\'
Yin Shan asked, "Elder, will more reinforcements be coming?"
The Elder shook his head, "I am afraid no. It will take them at least four days to get here, and everything will be over in the next two-three days."
Ye Tian Yun felt a bit relieved that there would not be any unexpected guests from the Devil Sect.
\'It would have just made things troublesome.\'
\'The people from the Gracious Sword Sect will arrive tomorrow, and there\'s the Devil Sect. Not too complicated from what I see - only these two parties, and I have plans for both.\'
\'The only thing I need to do is look into the arrays covering the city and try to get their origin. Did Devil Sect create them? By the Third Princess\'s guards? Or there\'s… someone else in hiding?\'
Even though the probability of a new party joining the stage was pretty low, it wasn\'t zero.
Ye Tian Yun was not going to let go of any possibilities.
After about fifteen or so minutes, they were finally done with dinner.
Once cleaned up, the Elder gestured at Ye Tian Yun to follow them.
\'Let\'s see their side of the story.\'
Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips and followed behind three members of the Devil Sect.
In the main hall, the table which Ye Tian Yun had seen was still arranged at the same place.
After the Elder took a seat, he gestured to the others to have a seat and said, "I had a talk with the Sect Leader, but in the end, I chose not to reveal anything about the Token OF Fate."
"Hm?" Ye Tian Yun was the only one who was surprised by this.
And noticing Yin Shan and Jia Lei Shan\'s nodding heads, Ye Tian Yun had a hunch of what\'s going on.
\'Hmm, this sect, too, is plagued by the power struggle.\'
The Elder continued, "Even though the Sect Leader doesn\'t know about the Token Of Fate, I am sure once this incident is over, he will definitely hear about this."
"And that will also be the moment when we will face real difficulty. For the next two days, we just need to take care of a few kids, but once we get the Token, we need to get away from this city as soon as possible."
"Hm?" Jia Lei Shan\'s face slightly paled, "Elder but this place is my home."
The Elder nodded, "I know, and this will also be the reason why I don\'t want you to enter the frontlines. In fact, Yin Shan alone will be able to handle everything; those are just kids who haven\'t even reached Peak of the Tri-Qi realm."
Yin Shan nodded his head, "Yes, Elder. Getting the Token will indeed be an easy task."
Ye Tian Yun suddenly interjected, "Seniors, I would warn everyone to be cautious."
"Hm?" the Elder frowned, "What do you mean, Disciple Shu?"
Ye Tian Yun cleared his throat and said, "Senior, there are two Core Formation Realm cultivators in the enemy camp."
"What!?" The three of them were shocked to hear this.
"What are Core Formation Realm cultivators doing here?" The Elder asked.
A visible trace of worry clouded over his expression.
Ye Tian Yun replied, "One is from the Gracious Sword Sect, and the other is from the people they are trying to assassinate."
"Oh? So both of them are enemies?" The Elder calmed down a bit.
Ye Tian Yun inwardly smiled when he saw that the elder could see the advantage they had, rather than worrying over the disadvantage.
Yin Shan suddenly asked, "Who are these people that the Gracious Sword Sect is targeting? In the report, it only said that they are important people from the Wu Kingdom."

Author note: Privilege price will be back to the old price, and with more chapters from next month.. Also, I have decreased the chapter release speed back to 2ch/d for this week because I got bitten by a honeybee in my palm, so I am having trouble typing the chapters.
