Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1328 - 394: [Will I Really Die?] (Part 2)

Chen Yan took a deep breath, wiped his face, and seriously said, "Consort Mother, I was only joking earlier, forgive me, forgive me!"

Gu Qingyi remained silent for a moment before finally sheathing her knife, but her face remained cold and her tone was grim: "Come here! Sit down! Explain to me everything you just said, in detail! Exactly...

What is the situation!"

Chen Yan sighed, walked over to sit down, and began to explain.

After an hour, he had essentially shared the seven-to-eight parts of his experiences during his several trips to the Domain Realm with Gu Qingyi.

Gu Qingyi listened as Chen Yan described hiding in the icefield outside Snow Cliff Pass, undergoing that battle, and using firearms to detonate the icefield, causing its collapse...

Gu Qingyi couldn’t help but twitch her eyelid and stared at Chen Yan with gritted teeth: "Do you know that you’ve ruined my big plan!"

"Hmm..."

Gu Qingyi finally exhaled and smiled wryly: "I had been scheming that battle for a long time. My brother went to Evil Land Mountain to stir up trouble, provoking the Fierce Beast Race, deliberately creating enmity to lure them into battle!

I originally planned to use Snow Cliff Pass as a barrier, to draw in more forces from the Fierce Beast Race, prolonging the battle for a while, keeping them pinned under Snow Cliff Pass, and eventually... win the battle in one decisive move!!

But because you exploded the icefield, causing its collapse, the reinforcing forces of the Fierce Beast Race couldn’t get through.

And the Fierce Beast Race, due to the icefield collapse severing their retreat, were too scared to fight long and had to retreat!

As a result, this battle that I and Gu Jinjia had long planned was hastily concluded.

I had initially planned to swallow at least two hundred thousand of the Fierce Beast Race in this battle!

But the final victory was greatly diminished because you detonated the icefield. You, hey..."

Chen Yan smiled wryly: "I’m really sorry for this. At the time of the battle, the Fierce Beast Race were already pressing down on the city, I was prevented from entering the city, cut off from information, and unaware of your plan.

While traveling the icefield, encountering stragglers from the Fierce Beast Race, I would stealthily ambush them. Only after witnessing the Fierce Beast Race’s cruel actions towards humans did I take action impulsively."

Gu Qingyi also smiled wryly: "I don’t blame you. If it were anyone, seeing the Fierce Beast Race using our Human Race as military provisions, they wouldn’t be able to hold back either.

Moreover, no war goes entirely smoothly according to plan.

I was ambushing with troops in the sea of trees while the Fierce Beast Race was fiercely attacking Snow Cliff Pass, creating immense pressure over there.

Reviewing afterward, I calculated that if you hadn’t detonated the icefield ahead of time, forcing the Fierce Beast Race to retreat...

Snow Cliff Pass might have seen many more casualties.

Although the battle outcomes might have been lesser due to your actions, our sacrifices and damages were reduced because of it."

Having said that, Gu Qingyi looked at Chen Yan with a somewhat strange tone: "Do you... think I’m too ruthless?"

"What do you mean?"

"Actually, in that battle, I had set up the situation using the lives of the soldiers in Snow Cliff Pass as bait to lure and delay the forces of the Fierce Beast Race. The longer dragged out, the greater the battle’s outcome, but the more soldiers would die at Snow Cliff Pass.

I was using lives as the price..."

Chen Yan shook his head: "I’m not a child; I understand that kindness doesn’t govern war, that principle is clear to me."

Furthermore, Gu Qingyi wasn’t purely sending others to die; she herself was on the frontline...

No, it was even more dangerous because her position at that time was behind enemy lines!

The setup seemed grand, but was actually very perilous, as once the plan was leaked.

If Gu Qingyi’s strike force in the sea of trees was detected by the Fierce Beast Race...

The Fierce Beast Race from Evil Land Mountain would continuously come to annihilate her troops, while the forces on the icefield would return.

At that time, Gu Qingyi’s force would be trapped, caught between foes, and with an icefield separating them from Snow Cliff Pass, escape would be impossible, truly a dead end.

Later, Gu Qingyi requested Chen Yan to show her the ring that allowed backdoor transitions to the Domain Realm.

Chen Yan was guarded against others, but trusted Gu Qingyi absolutely — perhaps in this world, the only person he could now trust absolutely was Gu Qingyi.

Just the fact that Gu Qingyi risked everything after hearing about him, even getting hurt, and crossing worlds to find him, justified Chen Yan’s complete trust.

After taking out the ring, Gu Qingyi held it and delicately stroked it with her fingers, then examined it carefully before sighing in disappointment.

"I can’t discern any intricacies about it. I can’t even tell if the material this object is made of has any special qualities.

The fact that this object can traverse between two realms is such a wonder, even if it was a gift from a Venerable Saint of the Ghost Race, it... it doesn’t make sense!"

Chen Yan looked towards Gu Qingyi, who smiled wryly: "Do you think traveling between two realms is that easy?

The location of the World Wall dates back to ancient times when the two realms were mysteriously drawn closer, causing spatial mutations after the spatial overlap occurred, bringing forth a ’passage’.

However, the rules of the two realms differ, and the overlapping portion with different rules, the space rules become extremely chaotic, filled with danger!

That Boundary Wall Array was a colossal array arranged through combined efforts by several ancient Venerable Saints, barely suppressing the temporal-spatial chaos within, thus barely creating a seemingly somewhat safe ’passage’.
