Chapter 515 Distracting The Star Lords

As the array masters of the Lin Ancient Family departed, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan gathered everyone she had brought with her, including the other elders of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion and Wang Jian. The atmosphere was tense, the weight of their mission pressing heavily upon them.

"Alright, everyone, listen up," Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan began, her voice commanding attention. "Our priority is to rescue our abducted elders without engaging in direct conflict with the Star Lords. Remember, we are here to retrieve our own, not to provoke unnecessary battles."

Wang Jian listened intently, his mind already spinning with plans and strategies. He knew he had to tread carefully, especially considering Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan's warning about his safety.

As Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan turned her gaze towards him, Wang Jian could sense the gravity of her concern. "Wang Jian, I need you to stay away from the battlefield," she said firmly, her eyes piercing. "Your safety is paramount, and we cannot afford to risk your well-being in this operation."

Wang Jian nodded in agreement, understanding the rationale behind her words. "Don't worry, Pavilion Mistress, I'll stay out of harm's way," he assured her, his voice steady.

However, Wang Jian had other plans swirling in his mind. He knew that while he couldn't directly confront the Star Lords, there was still a way he could contribute to their mission without putting himself in harm's way.

"Pavilion Mistress, I have a plan," Wang Jian interjected, his voice brimming with confidence. "I propose seizing control of the arrays of the Lin Ancient Family as a backup plan. If our initial approach fails, this could provide us with another means of rescuing our elders."nove(l)bi(n.)com

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan regarded him with a mixture of surprise and concern. "That's a risky move, Wang Jian," she cautioned, her tone cautious. "If we're discovered, the consequences could be dire. The Lin Family may never forgive us, and it could strain your relationship with Lin Xingya."

Wang Jian chuckled softly, though there was a hint of determination in his eyes. "I'll take that risk, Pavilion Mistress," he replied confidently. "But rest assured, I'll handle it with utmost discretion. We won't get caught."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan sighed, her expression conflicted. She knew there was no dissuading Wang Jian once he had set his mind to something. "Very well, but be careful, Wang Jian," she said finally, her tone filled with concern. "We're counting on you to make this mission a success."

With a nod of assurance, Wang Jian prepared himself mentally for the task ahead.

As Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan and the elders of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion soared through the skies at breakneck speed, they made sure to cloak their Divine Energy and Spiritual Energy fluctuations using precious treasures. The mission ahead was perilous, and they couldn't afford to alert the Star Lords to their presence.

Meanwhile, Wang Jian flew ahead, his mind focused on the task at hand. He wasn't directly accompanying Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan, but rather, he was headed towards the location of the heart of the Lin Ancient Family's killing array formation. This offensive formation could be a crucial asset if a confrontation with the Star Lords became inevitable.

As he flew, Wang Jian couldn't help but feel a surge of adrenaline coursing through his veins. The prospect of taking control of such a powerful array filled him with both excitement and trepidation. But he knew he had to stay focused and execute his plan flawlessly.

"Alright, time to put my skills to the test," Wang Jian muttered to himself, a determined glint in his eyes. With a confident smile, he adjusted his course and sped towards his destination, the wind whipping past him as he soared through the air.

Meanwhile, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan and her entourage continued their journey, their movements swift and calculated. They knew they had to act quickly to rescue their abducted elders before it was too late. The tension in the air was palpable as they drew closer to their destination.

"What kind of diversion do you have in mind?" one of the elders asked, curiosity evident in her voice.

"We'll use the Desolate Beasts," Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan explained. "We'll set up bait on various planets surrounding the star to lure the beasts out. Once the smell of the bait spreads, it should attract a large number of Desolate Beasts. The Star Lords will have no choice but to deal with them, giving us the opportunity to slip past unnoticed."

The elders nodded in understanding, impressed by Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan's ingenuity. It was a risky plan, but it was their best chance of avoiding a confrontation with the Star Lords.

"Let's get to work," Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan said, determination etched into her features. "We don't have much time."

The group sprang into action, each elder taking on a specific task to execute Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan's plan. They worked quickly and efficiently, setting up bait stations on nearby planets and spreading the scent far and wide to attract the attention of the Desolate Beasts.

As they waited for the plan to take effect, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation. This was their chance to rescue their comrades and deal a blow to the Star Lords' operation. But she knew they had to remain patient and wait for the right moment to make their move.

Hours passed, and just as Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan had hoped, the scent of the bait began to spread across the surrounding planets. Soon, the first wave of Desolate Beasts emerged from their hiding places, drawn by the promise of food.

"Here they come," one of the elders said, her voice tinged with excitement.

The group watched as the Desolate Beasts swarmed towards the bait stations, their movements swift and relentless. It was a sight to behold, and Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan couldn't help but marvel at the power of nature.

As the beasts descended upon the bait, the Star Lords stationed near the entrance to the star sprang into action, their powerful attacks aimed at subduing the creatures. It was a chaotic scene, with the sounds of battle echoing through the void.

"Now's our chance," Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan said, her voice filled with determination. "Let's move quickly while the Star Lords are distracted."

The group wasted no time, moving swiftly towards the entrance to the star. They moved with stealth and precision, careful not to attract any unwanted attention from the Star Lords.

As they approached the entrance, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan felt a surge of adrenaline coursing through her veins. They were so close to rescuing their comrades, and she was determined to see the mission through to the end.

With one final push, they reached the entrance to the star, slipping past the distracted Star Lords without incident. It was a moment of triumph, and Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in their accomplishment.

"We did it," one of the elders said, a note of relief in her voice.

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan nodded, her heart filled with gratitude for her loyal comrades. They had faced countless challenges together, but they had always emerged victorious in the end.

"Now, let's find our comrades and bring them home," Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan said, her voice filled with determination. "Our mission isn't over yet."
