Chapter 310 - - 308 A win-win-win situation for three people

—————✧✧✧✧—————

You’re not old-fashioned!

You’ve been sold out and you don’t even realize it!

Luo Shuang sighed silently. Watching Wu Chang, who was deceived by Duge and completely oblivious, she suddenly thought of something and couldn’t help shivering.

That’s not right.

From Wu Chang’s perspective, He Xu considered everything for his benefit;

from her own perspective, as a mentor, hadn’t she also given her all, always looking out for her mentee’s best interests…

He wouldn’t have sold her out too, would he?

Luo Shuang subconsciously bit into a peach, glancing towards Duge, her sense of alertness growing within her.

…

Duge asked, “Wu Chang, how do you think we can lure other Immortal Gods or Heavenly Demons here?”

The term ‘Mr.’ had suddenly been replaced by his first name.

Wu Chang was startled for a moment, then regained his composure. He Xu must think he had him in his grasp, asserting his dominance!

The mind of this native was too crafty!

But he didn’t take it to heart. The smarter the native, the higher his chances of riding on the coattails of the Qingwu Country’s princess and rising through the ranks.

If not,

if he had to worry about everything himself, he might as well start from scratch and struggle on his own!

The rules had suddenly changed, and he had been unable to level up his skills. Letting He Xu sing his high tune for a while was fine.

Once he managed to level up his skills, it would be his time to turn the tables.

Before going to the battlefield, he had repeatedly studied videos of the previous Alien Battlefield, but from the perspective of his predecessors from his own star, the information he got wasn’t much.

However, one thing was certain—whether at the Seven Star Gate, Medical Immortal Valley, or later at the Supervisory Academy, Wang Chong of Qiyuan Star always maintained absolute initiative.

Just like the recent major purge of Heavenly Demons by Chongming Country, clearly, one or several Alien Warriors had already influenced the upper echelons of the Chongming Country…

After a moment of silence.

Wu Chang said, “Right now, both the Heavenly Demons and Immortal Gods are still in the developmental stage. We don’t have good methods to find them. This world is too large; with eight hundred Heavenly Demons scattered within it, if they are intent on hiding, it’s almost impossible to discover them.

I myself only chanced upon them outside Datong town. Even if there were some particularly noticeable Heavenly Demons, Chongming Country would certainly find them before us.

Therefore, I believe the focus should be on developing our forces. Once the princess has her own army and power, she can then issue a call for the Heavenly Demons to assist us. At that time, Heavenly Demons will naturally come forward on their own initiative.”

“If the princess already has her own power, what need is there for the Heavenly Demons?” Duge frowned and said, “Wu Chang, we’re out of time. Once Duke Dingguo straightens out Qingwu Country’s affairs, it will be as hard as reaching the heavens for the princess to reclaim the throne.”

I’m running out of time too!

Wu Chang thought to himself. The last Alien Battlefield had only lasted for six months. This time, the Heavenly Demon controlling Chongming Country had already taken the lead. As soon as he grew powerful, he would likely replicate Wang Chong’s strategy, leaving no chance for anyone else to develop. I’m more anxious than you are!

“Mr. He, I’ve just come to this world not long ago, and I’m still in a confused state. Asking me these questions is really a bit difficult for me,” Wu Chang said with a smile. “Moreover, my attribute is bravery. In the Heavenly Realm, I’ve always been known as the War God. I prefer to vanquish enemies by strength, not by scheming. Just let Mr. He decide on everything.”

Duge laughed, then asked, “In that case, I’ll be blunt. Knowing the enemy and knowing oneself leads to victory in a hundred battles. May I inquire, Mr. Wu, how long will it take for you to recover your might as the War God?”

I’ve been underestimated!

Wu Chang choked a little, then said, “Mr. He, although this body is mortal, as long as it aligns with my attribute, I will grow rapidly and won’t disappoint Mr. He or the princess.”

“What do you mean by aligning attributes?” Duge pressed, for at this moment, he had, through conversation and psychological suggestion, already taken a dominant position with Wu Chang, who was still completely unaware.

“Bravery refers to being courageous and strong, valiant, and heroic,” Wu Chang explained as he looked towards Luo Shuang. “Previously, to prevent my identity as an Immortal God from being revealed and targeted by Heavenly Demons, I presented myself as cowardly, weakening myself. Thus, my wounds were slow to heal. But when I openly admitted my identity, bravery rose from within me, and my wounds healed without the need for medicine. That is the alignment with my attribute.”

Luo Shuang was taken aback. “If that’s the case, Mr. Wu’s abilities are indeed suitable for a general who leads the charge,” she said.

“Exactly, with my leadership, an army would be unstoppable,” Wu Chang said. “Of course, the princess doesn’t have any troops at her disposal right now. I can protect the princess and lead the charge for her, facing enemies and shielding Mr. He and the princess. That would also allow me to grow.”

Take a blade for me?

Luo Shuang was moved, "Is that possible?"

"Of course," Wu Chang grew increasingly confident and assertive, "Princess, don't forget, my injuries heal remarkably fast, so there's no need to worry about my safety. But taking a blade isn't my forte. My strength lies in my learning speed. Whether it's martial arts or art techniques, as long as I have learned them, my progress will be unbelievably fast. However, since my arrival in this world, due to the mayhem caused by the Heavenly Demon of Chongming Country, I've had no opportunity to practice any skills. If the Princess and Sir wish to make the most of my abilities, you could teach me martial arts or art techniques."

So, this is what he was waiting for!

Chongming Country's alien warriors have cut off all warriors' paths to growth.

Those left could indeed reduce their own attributes through reverse keyword operations, infiltrate the city, infiltrate sects...

Those with good aptitude might be alright, perhaps managing to stay in a sect to learn. But those like Wu Chang, who were tricked by Pan-Universe Entertainment and ended up seizing the body of an old man, would probably not even qualify to be a handyman in a sect.

It must be said.

If one doesn't take off early, struggling to rise later, the chances are too slim.

No wonder this guy was taking the risk, adventuring outside the town to find other warriors to ally with -- he was truly at his wit's end!

However.

If he was out of options, so was I!

If I don't find a way to break through, who knows when I could be the next one taken down by the Heavenly Demon.

Before gaining strength, Duge didn't want to gamble on whether those who controlled Chongming Country were people from Qiyuan Star, nor did he want to bet on their moral character.

After all.

If those guys learned like him, they might truly be capable of exterminating others ruthlessly...

Returning as number one would bring glory and increase one's value a hundredfold!

Knowing that I am Duge, the likelihood they would try to kill me is also high.

When it comes to his own life and property, Duge trusts no one.

Looking at Wu Chang, Duge said, "Teaching you skills is certainly no problem, Wu Chang. But my martial arts are mostly for assassination, I'm afraid they're not suitable for direct confrontation!"

"It's fine," said Wu Chang. "Having many skills is never a hindrance, and the body of an Immortal God can carry any cultivation technique. I believe that with Sir and Princess's talents, finding a few cultivation techniques that suit me should not be difficult."

Duge frowned slightly and said, "Wu Chang, while it's said to employ without doubt and not employ with doubt, whether you are an Immortal God or a Heavenly Demon is yet to be verified. I can pass on martial arts to you but will not pass on art techniques; I must consider the Princess's safety."

Even now, he still thinks of restraining me?

Too bad he doesn't know that once my attributes level up, he won't be able to hold me down even if he wants to!

Glancing at the cautious Duge, Wu Chang bowed and said, "Sir, I am content with learning martial arts. When the Princess truly trusts me, it won't be too late to pass on other cultivation techniques.

Actually, sir, you need not be so wary of me. I am originally a Celestial Being from the heavens. Once all demon heads in the mortal realm are exterminated, I will naturally return to the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm is prosperous, and spiritual energy is abundant. In my eyes, the Mortal Realm is but a barren land; I have no desire to covet positions of power here."

Duge smiled without responding.

Luo Shuang suddenly asked, "Mr. Wu, can I go to the Immortal Realm?"

Wu Chang turned towards the Fourth Princess and said, "From ancient times till now, no mortal has ever gone to the Heavenly Realm. But if the Princess and Sir can help me eliminate all the demon heads in the world, I might be able to make a request to the Heaven Emperor and lead both of you into the Heavenly Realm, to live as carefree Celestial Beings. However, once the Princess ascends the throne, I fear she would no longer wish to accompany me to the Heavenly Realm..."

Luo Shuang smiled and said no more.

"I can go too?" Duge's eyes lit up.

"You must have contributions," Wu Chang looked down on Duge with disdain. Just tossing out bait was enough to disturb your state of mind. Natives are truly natives, easily crushed.

He shook his head and said, "Princess, it's useless to discuss these things now. The Demon Head's power is tremendous, and whether we can win or lose is still unknown. If the Demon Head defeats the Immortal God before us, there would be nothing left in the Mortal Realm.

Therefore, we must concentrate on dealing with the other Heavenly Demons.

Moreover, as Mr. He said, we need to act fast. If the Princess's original plan was to raise an army in a year or two, it's best to cut it down to half a year or even just a few months. If any Heavenly Demon sides with Duke Dingguo, our uprising would become even more difficult."
