Chapter 732: Crisis
Hearing this, a chill swept through Chen Qing's heart.
The Zixiao Blessed Land, he had naturally kept it in mind all along.
Wu Ge had died at his hands, a blood debt the other side would not easily let rest.
And for the Taiqing Blessed Land to leak his whereabouts to the Zixiao Blessed Land, the intent behind this could hardly be called anything but sinister.
The seven great blessed lands had never been a single unified bloc, open and covert struggles, mutual constraint and rivalry among the various parties, had gone on for no small number of days.
Should the Jingyang Blessed Land and the Zixiao Blessed Land come into direct conflict over him, regardless of who won or lost, both would inevitably suffer damage to their very foundations, exhausting their strength in the process. The Taiqing Blessed Land had only to sit atop the mountain and watch the tigers fight, coldly observing as the two sides wore each other down, and with this mutual attrition, its own position as the foremost blessed land of the Great Luo Heaven would only grow all the more secure.
As for whether he, Chen Qing, lived or died, in the eyes of a colossal power like that, he was nothing more than a chess piece to be casually moved about, of no real consequence.
Chen Qing's mind was sharp enough that a single turn of thought was enough to see through the mechanics at play here.
Yet before he could speak, Danxuan lowered his voice further still, saying slowly, "According to the news I've received, there is someone within the Taiqing Blessed Land who wishes you dead."
