I Can Travel between Two Worlds

"Master, are we really going to run away?"

At this moment, Third Brother Jing Xiao’Er tentatively asked.

"What else can we do? Truly head to the front lines and deliver ourselves to death?"

"Besides... the four of us disciples and you, Master—at least five people, the weakest being Foundation Establishment, this vast Qing State, where can’t we go?"

Han Jihai sighed.

If not for the urgent situation, he wouldn’t want to leave the sect he had lived in for over two hundred years.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then said:

"Master, I think it’s not time to flee yet..."

If other disciples had said this, Han Jihai would probably have scolded them directly.

But upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, instead he asked:

"Oh? My good disciple... what different ideas do you have?"

Lin Chen nodded and shared his thoughts.

"There are mainly two reasons."

"First, that Blood Pupil Old Demon, though he’s a Nascent Soul True Man, having lived for thousands of years... surely has many limitations, unable to act freely."

"Otherwise, without a Nascent Soul Cultivator, the Righteous Alliance would have already invaded Fog Country, not just facing off at the border between Fog Country and Purple Smoke Country."

Hearing this, Han Jihai seemed to be in thought, nodding:

"Interesting... what’s the second reason?"

Lin Chen continued:

"Secondly, that Blood Pupil Old Demon is currently hunting Xu Shi throughout Qing State... and Xu Shi is from the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect."

"What if the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect takes action? What then of the Demon Sect..."

Upon hearing this, Han Jihai’s eyes suddenly lit up.

"You mean... transferring the trouble east?"

Lin Chen nodded and said:

"More or less... Therefore, the Righteous Alliance has external allies, namely the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect!"

"Master, think about how many pills, magical treasures... even Golden Yuan Pills have been sold in bulk by the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect these years!"

"That’s the foundation of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect... and the death of Ghost-Eyed Old Monster has further shown us their strength."

"If the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect is truly provoked, the Demon Sect might not be a concern!"

Upon hearing this, Han Jihai pondered for a while.

"Hmm, you do make some sense."

"Why don’t we... wait and see for a bit longer? If the front line truly fails... then we’ll run?"

Upon hearing this, several of the brothers laughed.

If it wasn’t absolutely necessary, who would want to leave the sect?

Especially the eldest sister and third brother, who have lived in the Changchun Sect for decades, they’re bound to have emotional ties.

"But... the army is about to set out, and logically our Pill Peak should send two Golden Core Cultivators..."

Han Jihai resolutely said, "As the master, I naturally must go... as for the other slot..."

"I will go!"

Lin Chen said at this time, his tone calm.

"Fourth Brother, how can it be you... I’m the eldest sister, I should go!" Miko was somewhat anxious and quickly objected.

"It should be me! Eldest Sister, you’re a female cultivator... how can we let you go to your death!" Third Brother also said.

"..."

Watching the two argue relentlessly, Lin Chen quietly said:

"Well... do you think you could defeat me?"

Upon hearing this, the eldest sister and third brother fell silent.

They were well aware of Lin Chen’s strength.

Now, throughout Pill Peak, let alone the two of them... even Master Han Jihai likely isn’t Lin Chen’s match.

Looking at the silent duo, Lin Chen said:

"Isn’t that settled? I’m the strongest, with the greatest chance of survival!"

"Rest assured, if the front line is really breached, I’ll be the first to flee..."

Upon hearing this, the eldest sister and third brother finally had nothing more to say.

Master Han Jihai glanced at Lin Chen, only nodding and said:

"Alright, tomorrow the second wave of the army will head to the front lines... then Chen’Er, you will go with me."

"Today you can prepare a bit..."

...

After leaving Pill Peak, Lin Chen first found Huang Xin.

Because this time he was to head to the front lines as his true self.

In the short term, Lin Chen’s true self definitely couldn’t return, so he left plenty of Spirit Stones and pills with Huang Xin.

Returning to Lin’s Small Pavilion, Lin Chen continued cultivating.

Today, he volunteered to head to the front lines, naturally for a reason.

Firstly, Lin Chen was fairly familiar with both the front lines and Fog Country and had a strong confidence in his own strength.

At the very least, he was confident that as long as he didn’t face that Blood Pupil Old Demon head-on, he wouldn’t be in mortal danger.

Secondly, Lin Chen himself intended to traverse between the front lines and the Changchun Sect.

Of course, under the guise of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, hence his true self’s location wasn’t a major issue for Lin Chen, merely using Martial Arts Puppets to mislead.

Compared to sending senior brother and sister to the front lines to their deaths, Lin Chen had a ninety-nine percent chance of surviving there.

As for why Lin Chen mentioned the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect in front of Han Jihai.

This too was part of Lin Chen’s plan.

He desperately needed a stable period to grow.

Currently, although the Orthodox and Demonic Party are constantly at war, overall they remain in a balanced state.

As long as there’s balance, there will always be cracks that allow Lin Chen ample time to grow.

But if that balance is broken.

If the Demon Sect prevails, Lin Chen couldn’t continue his business, not even the name of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect could appear.

Not only would he lose his biggest source of income, but even Lin Chen himself would be in mortal danger.

Hence, Lin Chen must ensure the Demon Sect cannot swiftly overpower the Righteous Alliance.

If they can stalemate for several decades, it would undoubtedly be perfect for Lin Chen.

Because by then, Lin Chen would likely have become a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and need not fear that Blood Pupil Old Demon anymore.

"Let’s see... if the Demon Sect truly becomes unstoppable... I’ll have to send dozens of Martial Arts Puppets to the Demon Sect’s stronghold to self-destruct."
