Chapter 894: Secret Weapon
With Li Pin urging them on, the group had arrived ahead of schedule at Abyssal Rift No.3, located within human territory.
However, upon reaching the outskirts of the Rift, Li Pin stopped. He didn't go any farther. Instead, he waved at Miao Zhuan, Ji Shun, and the others. "Take the rest of the people on the flying vessel to You Ying Palace."
Miao Zhuan and Ji Shun were taken aback. "You're not entering the Abyssal Rift?"
"I'll decide based on the situation," Li Pin replied.
Hearing this, the two more or less figured out what he had in mind.
He probably wanted to use this opportunity to test himself against the enemy. If he could win in a direct fight, he would. If not, he'd fall back into the Rift and use its terrain to turn things around.
The Heavenly Emperors nodded. "Be careful."
Ji Shun added, "Your Majesty, we have complete faith in you, but if it truly becomes impossible to win, please prioritize the bigger picture. Retreat to You Ying Palace. Even if it costs us our lives, we'll make sure you remain safe."
"I know," Li Pin said with a smile. "Go on."
Ji Shun, Miao Zhuan, and the others nodded, then quickly left with Wang Fuyun and the rest, heading toward You Ying Palace.
As for Li Pin, he stayed at the edge of Abyssal Rift No.3, quietly waiting.
To some extent, Ji Shun and the others had guessed right. Li Pin really did come here to test his limits against the Astral Lord Council.
