Chapter 498 Princess\'s concern
With her cultivation, she could stand at the forefront of the Northern desert continent but such an expert was kneeling infront of the second princess at this moment. There was a look of deep respect and reverence in her eyes as she looked towards Xie Lanying.
"Aunt Meili, don\'t act like this. I have disturbed you because I have no choice left", Xie Lanying spoke. She walked forward and pulled up the kneeling expert.
"Holy daughter, It has been eight years since I last see you. You are Cultivating one of the most difficult technique of our Illusory heaven palace yet you have managed to progress so much in such a short period. Venerated palace master will be very pleased if she learn about your progress", the sage realm expert spoke.
"It has been years since master last visited me. I know it is very difficult to descend from the immortal world but I still wish to see her soon. It is very difficult to comprehend my cultivation technique on my own", Xie Lanying spoke.
"Holy daughter, you need to have patience. I am sure sect master has her reason about why she was not seeing you. Moreover, I have full trust in your latent talent. With your Nine exquisite lotus body, I am sure you will be able to comprehend any cultivation technique from our Illusory heaven palace", the sage realm expert spoke.
"Aunt Meli, I will try my best. But for that, I need to have peace of mind first. This matter is directly related to my imperial father. So, I can\'t be careless", Xie Lanying spoke.
"Holy daughter, you don\'t have to worry. I will carry out my missions carefully", the sage realm expert spoke.
"I want you to soul search an imperial envoy of my Xie family. I want to see his recent memories. But you have to be careful. I don\'t want any injury to his soul", Xie Lanying spoke.
"He will probably visit the Jade harmony city soon. So, that will be your chance to carry out your mission", she further added.
A thoughtful expression appeared on her exquisite face after the sage realm expert left. "Imperial father, hopefully you have not taken any irresponsible decision. I don\'t want to have any misunderstanding with Zhan Chen", she murmured in a soft voice.

"Greetings seniors", Zhan Chen gave a courtesy bow to both Hui Guo and Li Wei after arriving in the hilly terrain. He chose an unoccupied hill for his army to rest and relax.
"Little brother Chen, can you come over? We need to discuss our strategies before attacking the devils", he received a voice transmission from Li Wei after his army settled in the unoccupied hill.
"Senior, I am leaving our army in your hand. Both the emperors want to discuss war strategy with me. So, I have to go. After discussing with them, I will go to scout the forward locations. We can decide our further course of action after I return", Zhan Chen spoke to Lu Tai Cang.
"Okay, do as you please but be careful. Don\'t venture deep into the devils\' territory", Lu Tai Cang replied.
Zhan Chen took a look at his army before leaving the hill. He walked towards a nearby a hill where both Hui Guo and Li Wei were having a conversation with eachother.
"Do we really have to discuss strategies with him?", Hui Guo asked Li Wei. His gaze was currently focused on Zhan Chen who was climbing the hill.
"Brother Guo, I have already spoke to you. Please be little tolerant. His ideas regarding war are very brilliant. I guarantee you will change your opinion after discussing battle strategies with him", Li Wei spoke.
"Fine, you will do the talking", Hui Guo spoke. His gaze was condescending as he looked towards Zhan Chen. Li Wei\'s lips twitched slightly after he saw Hui Guo\'s attitude. He shook his head in helplessness and looked towards Zhan Chen who was climbing the hill.
\'Brother Guo! Oh, brother Guo! You think only you have an attitude in this world. If Zhan Chen got offended, it will create problems for both of our army. We need his cooperation to complete our mission\', Li Wei thought to himself inside his mind. Outwardly he was smiling but inwardly he was cursing Hui Guo for his stubbornness and intolerance.
"Little brother Chen, come over", Li Wei spoke when Zhan Chen finally climbed the hill. There was a smile on his face as he looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Senior, I have made you wait. Please tell me what you want to discuss", Zhan Chen spoke. He took a look towards Hui Guo but seeing his uninterested expression, he looked away.
"Little brother Chen, we are scouting the nearby areas at this moment. We will join our forces and attack the devils once we ascertain their strength", Li Wei spoke.
"Senior, are you planning to use all your force at once? Are you planning to achieve a decisive victory in a single March?", Zhan Chen looked towards Li Wei with a questioning expression on his face.
A trace of surprise appeared in Hui Guo\'s eyes after he heard Zhan Chen\'s words. What Zhan Chen was guessing was true as they had discussed to employ their full strength and push for a giant victory in a single attack.
"How did you know?", Li Wei asked with a surprised expression on his face. It appeared like as if Zhan Chen could see thorough his thoughts.
It is easy to guess actually considering our situation. There are only two options available for us considering our circumstances. First option is a battle of attrition. You haven\'t probably considered it because you are wary of accumulated loses to your armies in a battle of attrition.
The second option is to attack with full strength which you have choosen. You are planning to push ahead suddenly and sweep away the devils in your path. Ofcourse, you are waiting to measure the devils\' strength first before planning for an attack", Zhan Chen spoke. This time Hui Guo couldn\'t hide his surprise as he looked towards Zhan Chen with an astonished expression on his face. He couldn\'t believe that all of his thought process would be laid bare infront of Zhan Chen.
"Yes, we have choosen the second option because first option is not viable for us. Devils have numerical strength by their side. If we go for a battle of attrition, they will grind down our armies slowly. So, instead of choosing this uncertainty, we are planning to launch a full strength attack", Li Wei spoke.
"I can understand your strategy but let me warn you, it will not be as simple as you thought. Perhaps half of your armies will lose their lives if you decide to push ahead like this", Zhan Chen spoke. His expression was serious as he looked towards Li Wei.
