The Emperor's Grand Plan

Heaven grade weapons are available only a handful in the Divine Pheonix Continent, not even the emperors have them. Only a few sect masters and Old Master Lin have it.

East Pheonix Kingdom's emperor once hinted Old Master Lin to submit the Heaven Grade Weapon, but he was ignored. He felt that he is superior to old master Lin as an emperor and hence he is more eligible to possess that weapon.

Little did he know that Old master Lin actually has multiple heaven grade weapons and all his 4 sons are also possessing one heaven grade weapon each. Lin family is always low key, they knew power and treasures attract enemies.

Chujiu did not stand on ceremony and took them all. She even kissed Grandfather Lin on his cheek as a reward.

Watching this how could her three uncles and aunts stand by, they also presented her profound grade weapons and defence tools.

All of them received same treatment and smiled like fools. Grandfather Lin is annoyed, these sons of his are becoming too much recently.

They are shamelessly competing with an old man.

He cleared his throat, distracting them and lead them to the main topic.

"Chujiu you have to be careful tomorrow. None of your brothers are present now to accompany you to the hunting grounds. I have arranged some of our shadow guards in the hunting grounds before and they will protect you secretly."

Master Lin also added, "Yes little jiu, take this token and break it when you are in an emergency. It will send out discrete signal and I will send someone immediately to reach out to you."

Lin Kai also gave his token which will serve the same purpose.

Su Daya and Su Yingxue smiled at her warmly, all the men in the room are not giving any space for them to talk. So they could only watch helplessly.

Chujiu smiled like a flower, 'She must have saved the world in her previous life, for having such a wonderful and loving family.'

Chujiu reminded all of them of her space once again so that they don't need to worry about her.

Plus, her combat skills are not for nothing.

But she has a doubt, "But Grandpa how did you send people inside, there is an array right? It will block experts from entering the grounds!"

Grandfather Lin smiled and explained, "Do you think the emperor do not have the key to open the array and send in experts? If he can send, can I not send my men inside?"

Chujiu had a realisation and spoke with confirmed tone, "You mean your men are monitoring the emperor and when he opened the array, you sent your men in with out them knowing?"

Grandfather Lin nodded and admitted that, that is what he did.

In the opulent study room of Emperor Ji Bingyun, the air hung heavy with anticipation. The emperor, a man of regal bearing and sharp intellect, sat behind a grand desk, his piercing gaze fixed on the Imperial Preceptor standing before him. The Imperial Preceptor, a figure of authority and wisdom, exuded an aura of confidence as he met the emperor's gaze.

"Have you made all the necessary arrangements?" Emperor Ji Bingyun inquired, his voice laced with a sense of urgency.

The Imperial Preceptor nodded solemnly. "Yes, Your Majesty. Everything has been meticulously planned and set in motion. You can rest assured that our strategy will proceed smoothly."

Emperor Ji Bingyun leaned forward, his brow furrowing in concern. "But will the plan truly work as we have planned? Are you certain of its success?"

The Imperial Preceptor's expression remained steadfast as he responded, "Indeed, Your Majesty. While there are always risks involved, I am confident in our plan. We have taken every precaution to ensure its success."

The emperor's thoughts drifted to their previous discussions, where the Imperial Preceptor had presented a bold idea.

Instead of pursuing the marriage alliance with the Lin family to gain control of their army, they had devised a cunning scheme to capture Lin Chujiu, the prized jewel of the Lin family.

The emperor had initially been skeptical, reluctant to wed his beloved son to someone he deemed unworthy. However, the prospect of achieving their goals without the need for marriage had intrigued him.

Though he heard that the trash as become a cultivator now and even has Dual element spiritual root, still he looked down on her.

"But how do we go about capturing Lin Chujiu?" Emperor Ji Bingyun pondered aloud, his voice tinged with uncertainty. "She rarely leaves the Lin manor. It will not be easy to capture her without alerting the Lin family."

The Imperial Preceptor's lips curved into a knowing smile. "Your Majesty, I have forged a connection with a sect known as the Flying Ocean Palace, located in the Azure Mystic Continent. They possess a special array that can conceal individuals within their ranks. I have arranged for Lin Chujiu to be secretly transported there via a portal, where she will remain under their protection for some time."

Emperor Ji Bingyun asked in confusion, "When did the royal hunting grounds have a portal to Azure Mystic Continent?"

The Imperial Preceptor explained, "No the portal is not in the hunting grounds. First we will capture her through an array, our people who are present in the array will take her to the portal outside our country through transportation talisma."

"The portal is in the Fiery Mystic Forest."

Emperor Ji Bingyun's eyes sparkled with intrigue. "And what do they require in return for their assistance?"

The Imperial Preceptor's expression turned grave. "They demand ten pieces of black iron, a rare and valuable resource found only in the Divine Phoenix Continent."

Emperor Ji Bingyun's brows furrowed in contemplation. Ten pieces of black iron were no small demand, but he knew the importance of securing Lin Chujiu's capture. With her in their possession, the Lin family would have no choice but to comply with their demands.

"I understand" Emperor Ji Bingyun, his voice resonating with determination. "Once we have the Lin Army in our hands, we can annihilate the Lin family and take over their wealth."

"We only had gains in the transaction, once I have Lin army in my hands then I can unify the entire Divine Phoenix Continent."

The emperor laughed madly...
