Chapter 306: The Arrival of the Great Star Envoy

After the conversation with Taicang ended.

Ji Zhangkong looked toward the mountain range shrouded in mist below, his expression growing increasingly gloomy.

In his original plan.

He had united the experts from the Desolate Ranking behind him, and by catching them off guard, he should have been able to easily take down those three sluts.

Even if Nangong Yue intervened, there was Taicang to block her.

With such thorough preparation, it should have been foolproof.

But reality was like a stubborn, thick-skinned man who had slapped him hard across the face.

Those three sluts seemed to possess the ability to foresee the future, having made preparations in advance.

They gave them no chance for a surprise attack at all, but instead ran away before they could arrive.

Making their meticulously planned ambush go to waste.

Afterward, the three women fled all the way into this Jueming Valley.

Due to the thick fog obscuring the Jueming Valley, they had not been able to catch them even now.

Hum~

Suddenly, the void beside the group rippled.

The next moment, a woman stepped out from the void.

She was dressed in a long silver gown, printed with patterns of the sun, moon, and stars.

She wore a mask, so her face could not be seen.

Outside her body, there seemed to be a peculiar power that separated her from reality, giving people a sense of unreality.

"Daoist Friend Great Star Envoy, you have finally arrived."

Seeing the newcomer, Ji Zhangkong's eyes lit up, and he immediately went to greet her.

At the same time, upon seeing the Great Star Envoy, the group revealed expressions of surprise.

Ji Zhangkong had left for a few days some time ago; so it turned out he had gone to invite this person!

With the Third Round Assessment progressing to this point, some experts within the Desolate City were already familiar with one another.

This Great Star Envoy was an extremely famous figure within the Desolate City.

Her fame was in no way inferior to the top ten experts on the Desolate Ranking.

It was rumored that this woman's Astrology was superb, and there were many people who wanted to ask for her help on a daily basis.

It was just that her temperament was too indifferent, and those seeking help were almost all turned away.

Never did they expect that Ji Zhangkong would actually be able to invite her!

Seeming to notice the astonishment of the crowd, the Great Star Envoy swept her gaze over them, and an ethereal, indifferent voice emerged from beneath her mask.

"The reason I came today is because these three people in the Jueming Valley are also people I must kill."

Hearing the Great Star Envoy's words, the crowd suddenly understood.

At the same time, the Great Star Envoy looked at Ji Zhangkong again, "However, you must still give me the reward we agreed upon earlier."

"Naturally." Ji Zhangkong laughed heartily, "Business is business; the reward promised to you will not be a single cent short."

The Great Star Envoy nodded and brushed her palm lightly through the air.

A few strands of broken hair appeared.

She pointed a finger at the broken hair, and a mysterious energy spread out.

A moment later.

She waved her palm, put away the broken hair, and looked at Ji Zhangkong and the others, "I have already calculated their location."

"Follow me."

Having said that, she flew straight into the Jueming Valley.

Ji Zhangkong's expression turned joyful, and he looked at the people behind him, "Everyone, let's follow."

After saying this, he chased after the Great Star Envoy.

"This Astrology is truly miraculous!"

The group looked at each other with surprised expressions and quickly gave chase.

In the Jueming Valley.

A purple light screen, like an inverted large bowl, covered an area about three zhang in diameter.

Inside the Formation, three beautiful women were sitting cross-legged, silently recovering.

Suddenly.

One of the women dressed in a long silver gown suddenly opened her eyes, a flash of alarm crossing them.

"Not good, the heavenly secrets have been stirred."

"Someone is spying on us."

Hearing her words, Wang Yu Yao and Su Yutong opened their eyes at the same time.

Xing Li looked at Wang Yu Yao and Su Yutong, saying with a grave expression, "With my current attainments in Astrology, the only person in this Desolate City capable of spying on me is the Great Star Envoy."

"She has come too!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Wang Yu Yao and Su Yutong both sank.

The combined strength of Ji Zhangkong and the others was already difficult for them to handle.

Now that a mysterious and powerful Great Star Envoy had been added to the mix, this was undoubtedly the worst possible news for them.

Facing Ji Zhangkong and the others, they could run or hide if they couldn't win.

With Xing Li there, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for Ji Zhangkong and the others to catch them in this Jueming Valley.

And the facts were indeed so; several months had passed, and Ji Zhangkong had remained helpless against them.

However, after the Great Star Envoy appeared, the situation was no longer the same.

The Great Star Envoy's Astrology was above that of Xing Li, and could suppress Xing Li.

Xing Li could not break through the Great Star Envoy's power to obscure the heavenly secrets to calculate the Great Star Envoy's whereabouts.

Yet the Great Star Envoy could calculate their whereabouts.

Facing the Great Star Envoy, they would have nowhere to hide!

Thinking of this, Su Yutong could not help but grow anxious, and she looked at Wang Yu Yao and Xing Li, "What do we do now?"

"Should we leave this place?"

"No, we cannot leave." Wang Yu Yao shook her head, "There is mist in this Jueming Valley to provide cover, so we still have room to maneuver, but if we leave this place, we will be completely exposed to the other party's perception, with nowhere to hide."

"That's right." Xing Li nodded, "Although the Great Star Envoy can calculate our position, as long as we keep changing our location, she will need to constantly deduce, and in this way, we can also continuously consume her Soul power."

"Reduce her strength."

"When her Soul power is consumed to the point where she can no longer break through my power to obscure the heavenly secrets, that will be the moment for us to break out."

……

Three days later.

Ever since Ji Zhangkong and the others entered the valley, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li had been wandering continuously within the valley.

They dared not stop for even a moment.

Facts proved that their strategy was very correct.

Although Ji Zhangkong and the others had the Great Star Envoy leading the way, they had been unable to find them, and could only constantly rely on Astrology to correct their direction while chasing from behind.

This day.

Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li were resting in an open space.

Xing Li suddenly opened her eyes.

As early as yesterday, she had sensed signs that the Great Star Envoy's power of deduction was weakening.

Just now, she suddenly sensed that the other party's power of deduction had completely vanished!

She looked at Wang Yu Yao and Su Yutong, her expression somewhat excited as she said, "Our chance has come!"

"That power manipulating the heavenly secrets has vanished; the Great Star Envoy cannot hold on any longer!"

As Xing Li's voice reached their ears, Wang Yu Yao and Su Yutong opened their eyes at the same time.

"Then we..." Su Yutong looked at Wang Yu Yao.

Wang Yu Yao nodded, "Escape from here!"

With her final decision made.

The three of them decisively flew toward the sky.

The valley was shrouded in mist, and there were also powerful Ancient Remnant Arrays and Desolate Beasts obstructing them.

To escape Jueming Valley at the fastest speed, leaving from the air was the best method.

The three of them rose straight into the air.

After flying up over a thousand zhang, they finally rushed out of the mist-shrouded area.

The view before them cleared.

They were just preparing to flee into the distance.

The clouds in the sky suddenly scattered, and a massive Great Star appeared from behind the cloud layer.

Starlight poured down.

A powerful power to Suppress instantly surged forth in the area reached by the starlight.

A massive oppressive force filled the area shrouded by the starlight.

Although it did not make it impossible for Wang Yu Yao and the others to move, it caused the speed of the three to drop significantly.

At the same time.

A dazzling silver light suddenly erupted from beneath the three of them.

A Star Chart with a diameter of over a thousand zhang instantly spread out, turning into a Barrier that trapped the three of them within it.
