Chapter 3385 Bluelotus's Adventure?
*Whoosh~*
A silhouette ran across the roof of some households, jumping across the gaps and landing without even making a single sound as they appeared to soften the impact by floating without touching the surface barely.
This person was clad in a black robe with their head covered with a hood.
They jumped across a rooftop and hid themselves by an elongated window that blocked vision as an obstacle. It would be hard for them to get caught, but the chances they would get caught by vision were unlikely, considering they also seemed to be using a concealment technique.
It allowed them to stay hidden as they watched the traffic on the streets as well as an establishment on the opposite side.
As they waited, they finally saw a group of women emerging from the opposite side of the street. They were clad in green, and the one at the center appeared to be special as she wore a dark green robe.
Her blue hair was like the ocean, wrapped up in a bun, which made her seem quite mature, and the robe green robe she wore accentuated her curves, bringing her charm out.
As the hidden silhouette looked at this woman, their black eyes flashed. Watching the dark-green-robed woman walk into that establishment and notice the name, they blinked before jumping into an alley by the side.
There already seemed to be a person seemingly monitoring the situation, but they neared them, silently appearing behind them before smashing their palm on that person's head.
That person's expression stiffened in pain.
But just like that, they collapsed backward, which caused the hidden figure to catch them and place them down silently.
They took out a messaging talisman and sent out a transmission.
"Codename Nighthawk, I found them. Should we make contact?"
A melodious voice emerged from the hidden figure. This person was none other than Natalya.
After she sent it, she didn't wait for the reply as she moved the unconscious person back into an inconspicuous location of the alleyway and put a pill into his mouth, making sure he remained sleeping as she fed him a strong sleeping pill.
A while later, she felt the messaging talisman reverberating inside her spatial ring, causing her to take it out.
"Codename Bluelotus, this is Nighthawk with Mysticfox. Currently, your orders are to stay put. What's the situation?"
Natalya's lips curled, knowing Mysticfox was none other than Tia, for she was a cunning vixen who led this entire mission. The more they listened, the more they arrived at the conclusion that she grew too fast through some mystical means. Hence, they named her Mysticfox.
"The situation doesn't look good…"
Natalya sighed into the messaging talisman, "Some disciples were caught by the Jade Lotus Valley's enemies and sold to the Azure Radiance Slave Traders. Right now, with not much manpower left, even a top disciple like Jade Aurora was sent to retrieve them by buying them out, so I guess they're getting desperate, but it works for us."
"The Jade Lotus Valley is heavily guarded. I could make it inside with my prowess, but getting to talk freely with Jade Aurora would be impossible. If we need to talk to her, then I imagine this is our only chance."
"So Ivy isn't there?"
"No, I didn't see her."
"I see. Wait a few seconds…"
Mingzhi turned to look at Tia. Natalya was also on Tia's bed asleep, constantly sending a flux of soul force through the karmic link they shared through the Daedalian Ethereal Convergence Technique cast by Tia.
Because the soul body was quite a distance away and was further obstructed as it was in a mini realm, it was extremely difficult to share vision and memories with the original Natalya, who was currently on Tia's bed, and hence the usage of this messaging talisman.
Of course, Natalya could directly contact her main body with this messaging talisman without having to go through Mingzhi as long as the main body held the messaging talisman, but there was only one of these as it had a high enough range and also security to not be easily intercepted.
There were different types of messaging talismans. The range was important, but the ones that possessed better security could not be easily obtained. Besides, they also needed Mingzhi's intelligence network to gather intelligence and get around many things that couldn't be done on the site.
Thus, the need for extra steps in their three-way communication was born.
"…"
Tia had a frown on her face.
She had previously said not to make contact even if Natalya found Jade Aurora and Ivy Aries, and she did so for a good reason, but it seems like she couldn't hold that command anymore as the Jade Lotus Valley was appearing to be on the losing side of the battles in that mini realm.
"Elder sister Mingzhi, can you update me on the overall situation inside the Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm? Start from the beginning since I may have missed something…"
"Sure…"
Mingzhi wanted to jab that she was Nighthawk, but since they weren't communicating through messaging talismans but face-to-face, she shrugged and continued.
"The Jade Lotus Valley, Glorious Pill Palace, Emperor Sword Sect, Soul Palace, Astral Light Sect, Infernal Lightning Palace, Blood Reaper Underworld, and many powers are all engaged in a skirmish in order to conquer the Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm that originally belonged to the combined alliance of the Jade Lotus Valley and Emperor Sword Sect."
"Currently, they are resisting the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits' occasional forces that were sent into Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm together, but there is only so much they can do with their limited manpower after most of their disciples and lands were crushed by Vacuous Beasts back then before they were all ambushed by the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits, finally causing them to be forced into the Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm."
"I have received news that the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits sent in reinforcements to the Jadedrite Mini Realm four days ago and managed to inflict a considerable amount of damage to the Jade Lotus Valley and the other powers, even massacring the Soul Palace's disciples. It seems like their forces could've dwindled by more than twenty percent from what Natalya said right now."
Tia lightly nodded.
Mingzhi may gain information on the overall situation by spying on the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits outside, but only Natalya, who was within the mini realm, would be able to garner what's going on inside and send information to them.
Naturally, the mini realm was blocked and guarded by the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits, who pushed the Jade Lotus Valley and the other powers to their backs, forcing them to retreat into the Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm that only allowed Immortal Kings and below to enter while Immortal Emperors weren't allowed inside.
Hence, the besiegement was slow. Otherwise, the Poison Haven and Norther Sphere Bandits would've massacred them all already.
However, the powers that the Jade Lotus Valley and the Emperor Sword Sect graciously allowed into their mini-realm ended up biting their back as they were not engaged in a half-hearted skirmish because resources in this mini-realm were getting scarcer by the day, which also meant they would never be able to leave and become a subordinate power to the Jade Lotus Valley or get massacred by the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits, leaving them with very few choices, which was to seek supremacy and conquer all other powers in order to mount a combined assault on their enemies or strengthen themselves and govern as the rulers of the Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm.
"…"
Tia considered all this in a span of a few seconds but still had trouble making a decision.
She couldn't interfere in Jade Aurora or Ivy Aries's lives, or else they wouldn't be the same women she knew anymore. She didn't know about the future. All she had were emotions and instincts, but she had a vague hunch their reunion wasn't in the First Haven World but the true immortal world, so interacting with them now might greatly alter the course of fate, which might even cancel out what they would become.
This means they might never reach 'that' kind of level, which made her feel like she would've wronged them.
The Jadedrite Sword Mini Realm originally belonged to the Jade Lotus Valley and Emperor Sword Sect, after all. If she guessed it right, there should be something within that they still had to obtain, and hence, she told Natalya not to make contact.
However, their lives were important, and with each passing moment, she knew the fates around Anarchic Divergents were no longer the same, so this whole scenario of being forced against the corner by the Poison Haven and Northern Sphere Bandits might already be something unexpected that never happened in other Tia's life!
Tia contemplated for a few seconds before she moved her lips.
"Tell elder sister Natalya's soul body to make contact with Jade. As for the decision to bring her and Ivy out safely, I will leave that to elder sister Natalya to make the decision."
"I will, but were you close enough to just call them by their first names…?"
"…"
Seeing Tia not react, Mingzhi appeared indifferent and informed Natalya of the decision.
