"My focus has changed."
Qi Shanye glanced at Xu Jin, "Now, my only wish is to impart everything I should to him. After passing all of this on, when the time comes, with no attachments in my heart, you won’t need to say a word—I’ll be the one to storm Hu Xuechuan’s door and engage him in a bloody battle!
And by then, even if it means burning up my Divine Soul, I will deal Hu Xuechuan a brutal blow!
To avenge the blood feud of all these years!"
Mo Ji froze, his ramrod-straight posture suddenly slumping.
Xu Jin, who had been listening for a while, finally saw an opportunity to interject.
"No, Master, I think Uncle-Master is right—we should take this opportunity to ambush and kill Hu Xuechuan first, to rid you of this big trouble!"
"You don’t know shit!"
Qi Shanye glared fiercely, "I brought you here today just for this important matter, everything else is irrelevant!"
"What else did you think? Why else would I call your Uncle-Master here? Just listen to my arrangement!"
Just as Qi Shanye was about to organize the specific tactics, Xu Jin became anxious and promptly took out seven of the ten Fifth Tier Emblems he had in hand.
Xu Jin kept three for himself, two offensive and one defensive!
"Master, you’ve forgotten—what did I come to you for? To bring you Fifth Tier Emblems!"
Mo Ji’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Seven Fifth Tier Emblems, five offensive and two defensive! All top-grade, fantastic items!
With these seven Fifth Tier Emblems, our chances of successfully ambushing and killing Hu Xuechuan should be more than sixty percent, and the chances of escaping intact afterward should also exceed sixty percent!"
After speaking, Mo Ji stared at Xu Jin in shock, "Kid, did you rob some State and County treasury? Where did you get so many Fifth Tier Emblems?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Mo Ji slapped himself, "Don’t answer, pretend I didn’t ask."
Xu Jin instantly understood that because this question might touch upon his identity, Mo Ji had reacted this way.
Qi Shanye looked at these emblems, his brows tightly furrowed, "A sixty percent chance is still not enough! Right now..."
While speaking, Qi Shanye glanced again at Xu Jin, the meaning couldn’t have been clearer.
By this point, Demon Arrow Mo Ji had already understood Qi Shanye’s intentions and purpose and refrained from advising any further.
Xu Jin, however, became anxious.
"No, Uncle-Master, Master, take a good look at these emblems. Mine are different from the regular Fifth Tier Emblems; they are emblems refined through a special process.
Emblems with double the power!"
Mo Ji and Qi Shanye both looked incredibly surprised as they turned to Xu Jin. At the same time, both picked up one of the nourished Fifth Tier Emblems Xu Jin had taken out and poured their Divine Thought into it.
Both were experts and had engraving the Mingji Star Pattern, boasting astonishing sensing power.
Before touching them, there was no way to sense, but once in their hands, they sensed clearly the Nourishment within these Fifth Tier Emblems.
"These emblems are truly extraordinary; the Star Power contained within is even more vast than what is within a Sixth Rank Star Jade! And most crucially, it’s all within the Star Pivot Star Pattern, simply perfect!
When did such an emblem grandmaster appear in this world?"
Almost reflexively, Demon Arrow Mo Ji looked toward Xu Jin, but in the next instant, slapped himself again.
Xu Jin felt helpless.
He saw Mo Ji’s Adam’s apple bobbing up and down with intense curiosity, yet he dared not ask.
In contrast, Qi Shanye had an easier way to inquire, "Where did you get these from?" Old Qi directly communicated through a voice transmission.
"Academician Kou Jing from the National Taoist Institute gave them to me." Xu Jin could only pin this prestigious name on Kou Jing at the moment.
"Kou Jing’s mastery in emblem crafting has become so strong?" Qi Shanye was quite taken aback, "And he gave you so many; how could he bear to part with them? These seven Fifth Tier Emblems, with the power comparable to Sixth Tier emblems, are invaluable."
"He said I have a talent for emblems and wanted me to be his Emblem Inheritor." Xu Jin straightforwardly confessed.
Hearing this, Qi Shanye felt a pang of jealousy!
But this time, the feeling only lasted a moment as he realized that compared to what he was about to bestow upon Xu Jin, these seven Fifth Tier Emblems were nothing!
"Each one, at least possessing the power of a Middle Grade Sixth Tier emblem, possibly even higher," Demon Arrow Mo Ji said eagerly. "If that’s the case, then we can truly ambush and kill Hu Xuechuan!"
At this point, Qi Shanye finally nodded, "Not only can we ambush and kill Hu Xuechuan, we can carry out both tasks simultaneously!"
"The second task is?"
"Transfer the control authority of my Star-picking Tower completely to my disciple. At that time, I’ll need your cooperation," said Qi Shanye.
"The Star-picking Tower, completely?"
Mo Ji was somewhat shocked, "Even you can’t handle it, so aren’t you afraid he won’t be able to?"
"No worries, if he can’t handle it, he can just leave it be. With my disciple’s rate of growth, there will eventually come a day when he can manage it. As long as there’s a chance to use it, it will bring him endless benefits," Qi Shanye explained.
Hearing this, Mo Ji looked at Xu Jin and slowly nodded.
Xu Jin, on the side, was stunned.
What is Old Qi doing?
Giving him a Star Tower?
That’s just too exaggerated!
"Alright, since we’ve decided, I’ll now formulate the tactics. Although these emblems greatly increase our chances, we still need to plan carefully since we’re handling two tasks simultaneously."
As he spoke, Qi Shanye picked out an offensive and a defensive emblem from the seven, and handed them to Xu Jin, "Keep these two for your protection."
"No, I still have emblems for protection."
"There are several more! You guys use these, don’t worry about me." Xu Jin immediately brought out a few more emblems, indicating he had enough, and only then did Qi Shanye relent.
Upon seeing this, Demon Arrow Mo Ji’s expression turned slightly sour, "It seems you really did find a good mentor."
Qi Shanye sharply glared, "Am I not a better mentor than his?"
"Yeah, better, much better! How could it not be, when you’re giving your all?" Mo Ji responded sarcastically.
"Hmph, you wish you could give, but do you have a suitable disciple?"
Mo Ji was ready to punch someone!
The next moment, Mo Ji silently took the bowl of wine Xu Jin passed him and downed it in one gulp!
Ah, having a disciple is indeed good!
"The first crucial factor in ambushing and killing Hu Xuechuan is the location! Since we’re handling two tasks, the previously chosen location won’t do..."
