Chapter 1017: High-Stakes Gamble
Amidst the surprise, Cao Lin felt a bit puzzled.
He hadn’t known Jing Yan for long, and they had only interacted a few times, but he somewhat understood Jing Yan’s character. He felt that Jing Yan was not the type to be arrogant and boastful. So what was the meaning behind Jing Yan’s actions at this moment?
Cao Lin furrowed his brow as he watched Jing Yan’s back.
"What is Brother Jing Yan planning to do?"
"Has Junior Brother Jing Yan really gone mad? Does he intend to challenge Meng He, Chen Ying, and Jin Guang from the Water Moon Department?"
"Oh my! Meng He is now already a Six-star Void God, and both Chen Ying and Jin Guang are very powerful Five-star Void Gods. Is Junior Brother Jing Yan going to challenge the three of them on his own?"
"I get it, I get it!" One person suddenly said, brightening up.
"What do you understand?" The others looked towards this person.
"This is Brother Jing Yan’s strategy. Brother Jing Yan knows he can’t confidently defeat any one of them, so he might as well let the three come at him together. This way, losing to the three of them together won’t be too embarrassing. He won’t lose face, and neither will our Green Wood Department," the person whispered.
Everyone showed expressions of realization; indeed, this was a very possible explanation, otherwise, Jing Yan’s actions made no sense.
"This Jing Yan is quite arrogant!"
"Hmph, with such arrogance, it’s fortunate he didn’t join our Sky Wolf Department! Even if he has high talent, our Sky Wolf Department does not welcome such people!" the Sky Wolf Department Director said disdainfully.
