Could it be that Su Nian is deliberately trying to lure me out?
As he thought this, he glanced back at the courtyard where the Immortal Ancestor Token and the Hundred Spirit Pearl were hidden.
If he takes this opportunity to sneak into my courtyard and steal the Hundred Spirit Pearl and the Immortal Ancestor Token, wouldn't I lose my only means of fighting against Su Nian?
No... The authenticity of the Immortal Ancestor Token is unknown. If this is Su Nian's unconventional plan, wouldn't I be ambushed?
He glanced at the Grand Elder beside him and came up with a solution that would satisfy both sides.
If the Immortal Ancestor Token is fake, and it's a trap set by Su Nian and Li Moli, then who is this trap meant to ensnare?
It's obvious.
It is myself.
Therefore, one should not carry the Immortal Ancestor Token with one's body, otherwise one might fall into his trap.
But if the Immortal Ancestor Token is real, then he can't leave it here. If Su Nian tries to steal it, he'll be truly helpless.
Whether you bring it or not, you may fall into Su Nian's trap.
But what if... it's not someone else carrying it?
If the Grand Elder carries this card with him, and I keep the Grand Elder by my side, then assuming this card is a conspiracy, only the Grand Elder will die.
If this card is genuine, I can get it at any time and use it to restrict Su Nian!
Thinking this, the Emperor said calmly, "Elder, come here for a moment."
The Grand Elder approached.
The Emperor smiled and looked at him, saying slowly, "Our internal defenses are weak during this campaign, which could give that villain an opportunity. Go and take those two treasures with you, just in case."
The Grand Elder lowered his head and responded.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
He then turned and left.
The Emperor ordered everyone to wait where they were. A moment later, the Grand Elder returned.
He put the Hundred Spirit Pearl and the Immortal Ancestor Token into his storage ring and nodded to the Human Emperor.
"Your Majesty, everything has been packed."
"Alright, now that everything is ready, shall we set off?"
Having said that, he strode towards the outside of Seven Star City.
The Grand Elder followed closely behind without saying a word.
The Human Emperor and many elders and sect leaders arrived at the city wall of Seven Star City. When they saw the dusty battlefield outside, they narrowed their eyes and locked their gaze on the arrogant Wan Cangqiong.
The gates of Seven Star City opened wide, and the Second Elder of the Human Emperor's Palace walked out.
Wan Cangqiong laughed loudly: "And where did you come from, you scallion?"
