Chapter 2553 - 119: Attending the Feast and Carving Up the Fat Deer (Part 3)
Yesterday, everything was full of song and dance, prosperity and affluence. Today, it is swaying in the wind and rain, facing the perilous crisis of dismemberment.Of course, some might say it was a sudden collapse overnight. But it was merely an abscess that had been festering for eighty-seven years in a rotten environment, gradually worsening until it reached a life-threatening, undeniable condition. The numerous actions of Dan Country, the shifting from side to side, were merely delaying the inevitable burst of this fatal abscess.
However, when it was triggered in such a malicious manner, neither the Zhang Family of Dan Country nor the True Man Luo Zhongmin, or the State Minister Fei Nanhua could matter. Even the King of Dan Country, in the coming time, could only await the outcome, having no power to influence the situation.
They couldn’t even decide how they died!
The fall of Dan Country happened too suddenly.
Like a colossal firework bursting open on the western foothills of Yan Yun Mountain.
It attracted the attention of the whole world, gathering all the eyes of the present times, with shockwaves that spread thousands of miles!
Even in Qi Country’s Linzi, far away in the Eastern Region, someone proposed temporarily setting aside the hunt for the culprit, to represent Qi Country on a mission to Dan Country and secure a good position for a slice of the pie that originally was beyond their reach... but it was suppressed by Zhongxuan Sheng.
And let’s not talk about those afar, even in this Southern Territory.
Chen Si Wu also immediately turned back, to act as the nation’s genius, at any time to coordinate with the Song Court’s next step arrangement.
Zuo Guangshu, in the name of Huai Nation Government House, assisted Jiang Wang in gathering two teams of a total of nine God Descending Realm strongmen, most of whom also requested to resign, eager to head to Dan Country.
The collapse of such a large country, the biggest pieces of meat would surely be divided by the strongest factions. But throughout Dan Country, from the capital to the local regions, there are too many places worth biting! Eating just a bit would make one’s mouth oily. Isn’t it much better than risking one’s life in the whole world hunting down a ferocious and cunning Heretical Sect Leader? Plus, there’s no guarantee of even catching up!
The few in the team who did not choose to leave, were constrained by the face of the Huai Nation Government House.
Cultivators of the Divine Arrival Layer are strong fighters anywhere. They’re either sect leaders or pivotal members of their powers. No one can coerce them.
For Jiang Wang, having people who are unwilling to work hard or whose minds are elsewhere is worse than having none. He decisively disbanded them on the spot, letting them all go. And he alone hid his tracks, rushing towards Yue Country.
The more brilliant the fireworks of Dan Country, the more convinced he is that all of this is related to Zhang Linchuan.
Although from the current situation, the dismemberment of Dan Country was inevitable long ago, it wouldn’t have been in such a disgraceful manner. The forces of Jing Qin Chu and others would not have acted with such impatience.
Leaving other things aside, it was precisely the "Human Pill Incident" that provided the powers with a dignified excuse, instantly detonating the situation to this point.
And the Human Pill incident was previously one of the crimes of the Church of Lifeless.
Although Jiang Wang doesn’t know how Zhang Linchuan accomplished all of this, the intense collapse of Dan Country makes him increasingly see Zhang Linchuan’s urgency.
He astutely realizes that, at this pivotal moment of the world dividing to feast and the Yan Yun Mountain western foothills surging with storms, Zhang Linchuan has larger moves to unfold!
When looking at the most likely targets for Zhang Linchuan, Yue Country is the furthest from Dan Country, and seemingly the most likely place to execute a dangerous plan.
Sword Pavilion is also very far, but its territory isn’t wide enough, and the danger is too high.
Dan Country now gathers a True Monarch and eight True Men, what a terrifying force this is?
Even though their attention is temporarily focused on the fat deer that is Dan Country, just a slight ripple would be enough to crush Zhang Linchuan.
Thus, Zhang Linchuan’s next target will be chosen to be as far from Dan Country as possible. But it won’t be far enough to leave the Southern Territory because he is in a hurry.
He was already eager in carrying out his plan, and now he has created a perfect opportunity for himself. Naturally, he will take this perfect opportunity to complete the last step. Before the major powers finish dividing the feast, he will completely resolve his predicament.
With the continual gathering of intelligence and the continual deepening of knowledge, Jiang Wang is certain that his understanding of Zhang Linchuan is almost identical to the real person.
Putting himself in the place of that cold persona to deduce, he has a strong premonition, right in Yue Country... Zhang Linchuan will definitely choose Yue Country.
So he takes this pursuit across thousands of miles... wielding his sword onward.
——
Someone asked: "Dan Country loses the fat deer, divided and feasted by major powers, why does Marquis Wu’an not attend?"
The response was: "A belly full of hatred, long unacquainted with hunger!"
