Chapter 333: Chapter 233: The True Scheme (Long Chapter)

Li An has become the best tool!

His cultivation was minimal, his Dantian shattered, so his cultivation was completely ruined. After entering the sect, he didn’t go through any seal and was taken directly to the Scripture Pavilion. Xun Dongfang and others guided him further, luring Li An to cultivate the Heaven-Stealing Skill…

From the moment Li An joined the Dao Sect, he was already in Zhan Qingxuan’s trap.

“If they just wanted me to transmit messages, they only needed me to cultivate the Heaven-Stealing Skill. Xun Dongfang didn’t need to give me so much Demon Essence… I’m afraid they have other uses for me in their plan.”

Li An murmured to himself.

He had sorted this out, but so far, he had no idea what Zhan Qingxuan, Evil Fourteen, and others were plotting.

To help Evil Fourteen and others escape?

This possibility was quite high.

Li An thought carefully, recalling that what Zhan Qingxuan told him was a part of an array, a very complex array far beyond Li An’s understanding ability.

“Shall we take a look?”

Li An whispered in his Spirit Platform.

Under the illumination of the soul’s fire, the Primordial Spirit of Shangguan Xiaoxiao was cramped together with his own. In the battle at Yellow Springs Valley, Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s Primordial Spirit was heavily injured again, and after this period of nurturing by Li An, it had somewhat recovered.

Li An usually let her rest quietly. One reason was that her condition was indeed not good, and the other was to avoid being monitored by the Dao Sect. After all, the Dao Sect’s foundation was profound and should not be underestimated.

But this matter was too important, so Li An had to wake her up.

After all, he couldn’t make sense of this array at all.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao listened to Li An’s Primordial Spirit explaining the details of the array one by one and said: “Although it’s just a fragment, it shows that this array is extraordinary. It’s a top-notch trapping array, capable of at least restraining a Void Refinement Realm expert. As for its upper limit, it depends on the other parts.”

Li An pondered, a first-class trapping array…

Could it be related to the Profound Turtle Peak Great Array?

He immediately told Shangguan Xiaoxiao about the geographical situation surrounding the Profound Turtle Peak, but Shangguan Xiaoxiao shook her head: “The geographical features you mentioned are probably the mere tip of the iceberg. It’s still impossible to determine. You can wait for the remaining parts of the array and call me again.”

After saying this, she continued to sleep.

Although Shangguan Xiaoxiao did not provide a definite answer, Li An still felt that this array was likely related to the Profound Turtle Peak Great Array.

If Zhan Qingxuan is the heir of the Evil King, and she is conspiring with Evil Fourteen and Xun Dongfang and sends a fragment of a trapping array… what could be the purpose?

The biggest possibility is to help Evil Fourteen and others escape!

If this speculation is true, then perhaps this is Li An’s greatest opportunity…

After all, he is now trapped in the Dao Sect. Although he has gained a lot, acquiring all sorts of heaven-defying spells, what use is it if he can’t get out?

He can only sit in despair, guarding miraculous spells, and die.

But currently, in these people’s plan, Li An is still just a tool, a being used… To reverse the situation or profit from this plan, he must proceed cautiously.

“What’s the matter, not feeling well? Did something go wrong during the open day?”

Xun Dongfang came to his side, returned a scroll to the shelf, and spoke casually.

Li An gave a bitter smile and said: “Yes, some old acquaintances are doing well in the Dao Sect. Perhaps in no time at all, I will have turned into a pile of dirt, while they have reached the peak… Everything is fate, beyond human control.”

He sighed deeply.

“If you want to survive, read more books and think more. As long as you can provide the Dao Sect with enough insights, cultivation techniques, and so on, they will extend your life for you.”

Xun Dongfang smiled faintly and said, “Come, let’s discuss spells.”

Xun Dongfang didn’t inquire at all about Li An’s situation during the open day, but Li An understood that he probably knew, and sure enough, at the blink of an eye, the end of the month arrived. Xu Wanshou left, and during a discussion on spells, Evil Fourteen suddenly turned to Li An and asked:

“Li An, my young friend, do you have anything you wish to share with us?”

Li An thought for a moment and then said: “My cultivation is low; I dare not show off my superficial knowledge in spells, but I do have some insights in arrays recently. Please, senior masters, correct me if I’m wrong…”

He then dismantled the array told to him by Zhan Qingxuan and discussed it with everyone, slowly narrating the complete fragment of the array…

Although Evil Fourteen and others were sealed and imprisoned here, they had considerable freedom internally, freely talking and discussing whatever they wanted… The Dao Sect essentially ignored them.

This was due to the Dao Sect’s confidence: the seals of great power, the suppression of arrays, and also the fact that this place belonged to the Dao Sect; should any disturbance occur, sect experts would immediately appear. Who could possibly turn the tables?

Giving them freedom, instead, facilitated the exchange of insights and created greater value for the Dao Sect.

Li An carefully scrambled and narrated the array contents, but considering the individuals present, they easily discerned the hidden meaning. For a moment, these high experts, who usually joked and discussed great skills in a light-hearted manner, could not help but show some solemn and excited expressions in their eyes.

At this moment, Li An was also convinced of one thing: this plan involved not just Xun Dongfang and Evil Fourteen but was a conspiracy of these demonic outsiders!

Paradise Sect Leader Lin Xianxian, Ten Thousand Souls Sect Elder Tuoba Wanchong, and Witchcraft Gu’s heir Witch Lady were also involved.

“Young friend’s thoughts on the array are truly enlightening…” Evil Fourteen smiled, looking at Li An with full appreciation, and said: “I hope young friend will gain more insights in the future to share with us.”

Beside him, the voice of Paradise Sect Leader Lin Xianxian rang like silver bells: “Young friend has great talent; in my opinion, you should come to our Paradise Sect’s building to study, gain knowledge, what do you all think?”
