Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

Dark Night (Little Grey) nodded heavily. He closed his eyes again, and this time, he condensed his soul perception into an invisible thread, carefully extending it toward the abnormal points specified by Lu Lingxi.

Time passed slowly, and the cave was very quiet. Suddenly, Dark Night (Little Grey)'s body trembled violently. His originally pink cheeks turned deathly pale at a visible speed, and large beads of cold sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead. His long eyelashes trembled violently, as if he was enduring a huge impact.

"Little Dark Night!" Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi noticed his abnormality at the same time. Nalan Rongzhi immediately injected a gentle energy into Dark Night's body to help him stabilize his mind.

An Ye suddenly opened his eyes, his beautiful eyes now filled with terror. He gasped for breath, his voice trembling as he said to Lu Lingxi Yao, "M-Master...those places...are so scary...so scary..."

“There… there are many… many fragments of souls… countless remnants of souls forcibly torn apart and fused together, filled with pain… they wander there, wailing…”

His voice trailed off, filled with unspeakable fear, “There is also… there is an extremely dark, evil energy, with a desire to devour everything… in the core area of ​​those anomalies… the feeling… is very similar to the power of the Abyss.”

Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi exchanged a glance. Combining Lu Lingxi's spatial perception with An Ye's soul probing, the two could almost draw a conclusion:

Not only did the Black Abyss station experts within Rift City, but they also likely established secret outposts within the city and used these outposts to conduct some kind of ritual related to space and soul, attempting to summon some even more terrifying being. Those soul fragments were likely the victims of these experiments.

When Lu Lingxi and An Ye shared the information they had gathered during their nighttime investigation with everyone, the cave fell into a deathly silence once again.

"You mean... the people of the Black Abyss are performing evil sacrifices in the city?" Pan Shi Lie's voice trembled slightly. He couldn't imagine how desperate those innocent people must have felt when they were used as sacrifices.

Feng Xiao (Old Feng)'s face also turned extremely ugly. He muttered to himself, "No wonder... no wonder the fortune of the demon realm has been declining since Lie Tian took the throne. It turns out that we invited wolves into the house and turned the demon realm into a testing ground for these evil people!"

“Father…” Di Lin (A Tu) clenched his fists, “No matter what, I must rescue you!”

Pan Shi Lie slammed his fist into the stone wall beside him, his eyes flashing with a resolute light. "Lie Tian has colluded with foreign enemies to wreak havoc on the demon realm. My Pan Shi tribe will fight to the last man to prevent him from succeeding!"

After a long silence, Lu Lingxi Yao (Xiao Qi) glanced at everyone and continued, "Since the information has changed, the original rescue plan needs to be readjusted."

Nalan Rongzhi (Nalagu) said in a low voice, "The situation is worse than we thought!" He looked at Lu Lingxi Yao (Xiao Qi) with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Lu Lingxi Yao (Xiao Qi) nodded slightly, her cool gaze filled with contemplation. She continued the conversation, her voice calm, "Right now, it's too risky for our small team to make a breakthrough in a single area. The chances of success are extremely slim."

"We cannot put all our eggs in one basket. The only way is to distract the enemy, operate on multiple fronts, and create chaos in order to win in the chaos and create opportunities for the rescue operation."

She stood up and had Pan Shi Lie spread out a map of Lie Tian City and its surrounding terrain on a relatively flat rock in the center of the cave. Everyone gathered around and focused their attention on the route that Lu Ling Xi Yao (Xiao Qi) had drawn.

“I propose,” Lu Lingxi Yao (Xiao Qi)’s voice was clear and firm, “that we split into three groups!”

"First team, the core infiltration squad." Lu Lingxi pointed to the location of the city lord's mansion in the central area of ​​Lietian City on the map. "Our goal is the ancestral forbidden area to rescue His Majesty Emperor Hong." She lightly tapped the map with her finger. "This team will consist of me, Di Lin (A Tu), and An Ye (Xiao Hui)."

"I will be responsible for overall command and decision-making, using spatial power and my understanding of formations to lead the infiltration process and break through any restrictions and traps we may encounter along the way. At the same time, I will be ready to deal with any emergencies and protect your safety. If necessary, I can forcefully break through certain obstacles."

Then, her gaze turned to Di Lin (A Tu), "Di Lin, you need to use your royal bloodline to sense the exact location where His Majesty is imprisoned, and after arriving at the entrance to the forbidden area, try to activate the restriction. The issue of the 'specific token' is an uncertain factor in this trip, which requires you to try to recall if there are any relevant clues in the royal family's secrets. Otherwise, we can only hope that we can find some clues near the entrance to the forbidden area. Inside the forbidden area, your bloodline power may also provide guidance."

Di Lin (A Tu) nodded heavily.

Finally, Lu Lingxi Yao looked at An Ye (Xiao Hui) and said, "An Ye, your soul perception and stealth abilities are our eyes and ears. You are responsible for scouting ahead. If you discover any traps, sentries, soul restrictions, or potentially hidden enemies, choose the safest route for us in advance."

Dark Night (Little Grey) nodded earnestly, his face full of seriousness: "Understood!"

Lu Lingxi summarized, "The core of the first operation is absolute secrecy, avoiding all unnecessary battles, and finding and entering the ancestral forbidden area as quickly as possible. The issue of the 'token' will be our biggest challenge."

“Second route, feign an attack to draw the attention of the squad.” Lu Lingxi’s finger moved to an important stronghold marked “Black Wind Fortress” on the outskirts of Lietian City on the map, as well as several areas in the city marked “suspected Black Abyss strongholds.” “The goal of this squad is to create large-scale chaos, firmly drawing the attention of Lietian himself and most of the main experts in the city, including those few unknown powerful figures, to buy time for our infiltration.”

She looked at Nalan Rongzhi (Naragu), Youming (Xiaohei), and Baihu (Xiongda): "This team will be led by Rongzhi (Naragu), with Youming (Xiaohei) and Baihu (Xiongda) assisting."

“Rong Zhi,” Lu Lingxi’s gaze met Nalan Rong Zhi’s, with a hint of worry, “Your mission is the most important and the most dangerous. You need to choose a location that can cause the greatest sensation to launch an attack, whether it is the Black Wind Fortress outside the city or the Black Abyss secret stronghold inside the city. You may need to expose some of your demonic characteristics. You must attract Lie Tian himself and the top combat forces in the city to the location.”
