Chapter 748 - 748 58 Ci Wu_3

Chapter 748: Chapter 58 Ci Wu_3 Chapter 748: Chapter 58 Ci Wu_3 Ci Wu gently shook her head, and asked again:

“It’s alright, do Tan Yue think who would win the fight over the land of residence between Fenglin Continent and the Three Continents?”

Wang Ba suddenly hesitated.

“Tan Yue, just speak what’s on your mind.”

Ci Wu said harmoniously.

Wang Ba took a glance at the other party, but still was not completely truthful, “Fenglin Continent is strong indeed, but I fear the power of the Three Continents can not be dealt with easily…”

“Ha-ha, Tan Yue, I fear your words may not be sincere.”

Upon hearing this, Ci Wu smiled slightly, and then went on her own,

“Despite the Three Continents all rising up, they have crossed far over the sea, like a rootless tree, while Fenglin Continent is not so.

The reputation of the three sects of Fenglin Continent is known throughout the Nine Continents.

The Three Continents may be temporarily strong, but eventually they will turn to dust.”

These words caught Wang Ba by surprise:

“Elder, you are in favor of Fenglin Continent?”

However, Ci Wu also shook her head:

“While the Three Continents are indeed on the verge of collapse, for Fenglin Continent to resist the Three Continents alone, even if they do win, it will be a bitter victory.”

“If a cultivator from the Outer Continent were to take advantage of the chaos and come, they could conquer in one battle.”

Wang Ba immediately frowned:

“According to elder’s words, the Three Continents shouldn’t have gone to war with Fenglin Continent…”

“Whether to fight or not, it’s a flood.

If the Three Continents land sinks and billions of beings are destroyed at once, the cultivators of the Three Continents are just the last sparks.”

Ci Wu shook her head again.

Wang Ba frowned even more:

“If war is not an option and peace is not an option, is there no other way?”

Upon hearing Wang Ba’s words, Ci Wu seemed to have thought of something and sighed deeply:

“Yes, neither fighting nor peace are options.

...

Is there really no other way?”

Then she turned to Wang Ba and asked, “If it were you, Tan Yue, what would you do?”

Wang Ba hesitated slightly, but some thoughts immediately popped up in his mind.

He tested the waters, “Why not disperse to the other continents in smaller groups?

This might prevent a local backlash …”

However, Ci Wu slowly shook her head, “This is but a matter of being at the mercy of others.”

Wang Ba immediately fell silent.

What she said was indeed true.

All the resources of the Three Continents had been taken by these refugees.

Just the few Golden Core Craftsman from the Tupi Continent that Wang Ba had met were already rolling in wealth.

If they were to disperse, it would surely lead to a scramble for these resources.

But to ask these cultivators to give up their resources for the sake of survival, perhaps only a minority would do so, but the vast majority of cultivators wouldn’t.

Giving up resources for cultivation is no different than being a mere mortal.

It’s better to wield weapons and fight for survival.

“Tan Yue, do you have any other strategies?”

But Ci Wu pursued the question.

Wang Ba hesitated for a moment before expressing another idea.

…

Jin.

Tianjing City.

In the deep palace.

A young man in a prince’s gown was kneeling in front of a palace hall, not daring to move a muscle.

At his side, Jin Emperor Qin Yunhuan, the nominal ruler of the Jin Empire, stood next to the youth with a somber face, leaning slightly forward, his tone filled with a bit of respect:

“Father, Lingxiao me…

met with a disaster, as his father, Shengyong shoulders full responsibility, even though it was an unintended error, none of us expected this to happen…”

Inside the palace, a stern voice of anger roared immediately:

“You need not excuse him, do you as a grandfather bear no responsibility?”

Qin Yunhuan hesitated a moment, a hint of melancholy flashing across his eyes:

“My…

my son…

of course bears responsibility.”

Compared to the Chu Dynasty, the royal lineage of Jin was much rarer.

Especially in this generation of Qin Lingxiao, there were quite a few males in the line of succession, but only one girl who was highly gifted and beloved.

Not only was she favored by her own father, who often guided her by his side, but even her grandfather was quite fond of her as well.

Hearing about Lingxiao’s disappearance and her soul lamp going out almost killed Qin Shengyong, the crown prince.

However, as things have come to this, reproaching him would be of no use.

Seeing Qin Shengyong being stripped of his Cultivation Base and kneeling here for months, his anger had slightly subsided.

Considering the pleas from all sides, he had no choice but to personally come here and collect the crown prince.

However, it seems, even after months, the old man is still furious.

The voice from within the palace changed a bit in tone:

“I always feel that little Lingxiao is still alive…

have you guys searched the sea barrier area?”

Qin Yunhuan quickly said: “After you mentioned it before, father, my fourth brother immediately went there in person, but now that we have allowed the sea barrier in the south coast to grow to resist the Three Continents’ cultivators, it’s hard to investigate due to its large size.

Fourth brother is only at the Nascent Soul Realm, and could only conduct a hasty check, and didn’t find Lingxiao…

or any trace of her.”

That voice still seemed somewhat unwilling:

“I heard that little Lingxiao was transported by the geographical position.

Have you sent people to check the geographical position?

Could she have been transferred elsewhere?”

Qin Yunhuan hesitated:

“This…the geographical positions change unpredictably, we don’t have any expertise in this area, it’s just the Thick Earth Peak’s Master Hu and Qianliu Peak’s Master Miao from the Wanxiang Sect are still searching there.

I heard some other peak masters are also there… Lingxiao and the disciples of the Wanxiang Sect disappeared at the same time, if they find their own disciples, they should be able to find little Lingxiao too.

Also, the people from the Longevity Sect are helping with the search.”

A somewhat exasperated voice echoed in the palace:

“Foolish!

Although the two sects have a longstanding relationship with my Qin Family, self-help is the key.

Don’t put all your hopes on others!”
