Wu Shattered Star River

It was midnight when Jiang Han returned to his courtyard, but he didn't go back to his room to cultivate.

He went to the backyard, lay down on the grass, and gazed at the sky.

There was a bright moon in the sky, and countless stars.

Jiang Han didn't care about the moon; his gaze was fixed on the myriad stars.

There were so many stars, countless and twinkling, some very bright, some very dim.

Some stars gathered together, seemingly forming a mysterious grand formation, but when he looked closely, he felt like there was nothing there at all.

The Big Dipper Immortal Technique released by the Star Lord of the Big Dipper resurfaced in his mind. When the immortal technique was released, the Big Dipper stars in the sky lit up.

He could see beams of light shooting down, and he could see the vast power of the stars surging forth.

Jiang Han's eyes gradually became dazed. He wasn't having an epiphany, but was genuinely confused.

The Starry Sky Body was too complex, and connecting the Starry Sky Formation was too difficult. He didn't know how to comprehend it, how to deduce it, or how to connect it.

"Let's try it first. If it really doesn't work, I'll have to venture into the Star Tomb!"

Jiang Han sighed. There were Star Formation diagrams inside the Star Tomb, but he didn't dare to risk it.

Even Immortal Kings might die inside. Even if he didn't die, he might be trapped for many years. If he was trapped for tens of thousands of years, what would be the point of breaking through to the Immortal King realm when he came out?

He looked at the stars for a while, then took out paper and pen and circled the stars.

He connected the stars one by one on the paper, trying to draw some small star formations, so that he could deduce the grand Star Formation next.

He looked up all night, and after dawn, he sat cross-legged in the backyard to deduce. He sat for a whole day, and after nightfall, he continued to open his eyes, looking at the stars and drawing star charts.

Yu Xi was in seclusion. Immortal Venerable Wu Yun walked to the backyard and sat cross-legged near Jiang Han, without disturbing him.

Recently, the various races hadn't attacked the mountain, and no one came to disturb Jiang Han. He was living here quite comfortably.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another twelve days had passed.

It had been almost a month since he came to White Egret Mountain. Jiang Han stopped that day, and he secretly calculated the days, feeling a little expectant.

Immortal Emperor Qingyun should be returning soon, right?

When Immortal Emperor Qingyun returned, he wouldn't have to worry anymore, and he might also know the whereabouts of Jiang Hen Shui. When the time came, he could find a way to look for them.

"Let's get some sleep!"

He had been looking at the stars so much recently that he felt dizzy. Continuous deductions were also very exhausting, so he got up and went back to his room to sleep.

Immortal Venerable Wu Yun opened her eyes and silently walked to the hall to sit cross-legged, guarding Jiang Han.

Jiang Han only slept for most of the day. A soldier came to report that Qingluan was urgently summoning all commanders.

"Let's go!"

After being woken up, Jiang Han hurriedly went to Qingluan's courtyard with Yu Xi and Immortal Venerable Wu Yun.

The Qingluan Army had already begun to assemble. Jiang Han came over and turned his gaze to Qing Yu, asking, "Have the enemies started attacking?"

"Yes!"

Qing Yu nodded and said, "They have mobilized a lot of reinforcements, so there may be several fierce battles."

After waiting for a moment, Qingluan and Immortal King Bai Jie came out. Qingluan waved her hand and said, "The entire army listens to the order, go to Firewind Mountain to support!"

Immortal King Bai Jie cupped her fist towards Qingluan and said, "Thank you, Miss Luan."

"We are all compatriots and comrades-in-arms, you are too kind!"

Qingluan waved her hand, and led the army down the mountain along the road in a hurry.

Immortal King Bai Jie led people towards the nearby courtyards. She was responsible for overall planning, assigning the armies coming to support from various peaks to go out and coordinate defenses.

She led people and busied around, and those reinforcements went to various peaks to support.

She was about to lead people to inspect and help the various peaks below when Bai Xue hurriedly walked over and winked at her.

"Buzz~"

Immortal King Bai Jie released a black soundproof barrier and asked, "What is it? So mysterious!"

"The spies outside have sent back news!"

Bai Xue said, her expression a little complicated, "According to the news sent back by the spies, many people in the God-Demon Battlefield are indeed spreading the word—that Jiang Han is the son of the Eastern Heavenly Emperor, um… Some people also say that Jiang Han may be the son of the Azure Emperor."

"Unfortunately, our people haven't found any eyewitnesses to that great battle. The spies say… those eyewitnesses are likely being controlled, and the news has been blocked."

"What's the use of this news?"

Bai Jie's face sank and she said, "The Azure Emperor's son? Where did the Azure Emperor get a son? Why not say he's the Jade Emperor's son? Without finding concrete evidence, these rumors are all unbelievable!"

"Yes!"

Bai Xue nodded and said, "Jiang Han dared to kill the Jade Emperor's son, he's too bold. It's inevitable that people will overthink, and slowly all kinds of rumors will come out."

"Of course… it's not impossible that Jiang Han is Jiang Hen Shui's son, Mother, should we continue to investigate?"

"How to investigate?"

Bai Jie snorted coldly and said, "The eyewitnesses of the great battle have been controlled. Relying on those low-level spies to get accurate news, who knows how long it will take."

"We don't have time. Six days ago, Gu Xifeng released a statement, vowing to break through our White Egret Mountain."

"Then what to do?"

Bai Xue said with a worried expression, "Shall we forcibly attack? What if he really is Jiang Hen Shui's son? Our entire clan will die."

Bai Jie was a little irritable.

The Extinction Void Blade was a good thing. If this blade fell into the hands of her aunt, Immortal Emperor White Egret, her combat power would soar.

Immortal Emperor White Egret would become one of the top powerhouses in the Ancient God Star Region, and the various races would definitely not dare to act rashly. It is estimated that they would retreat soon.

Because the various races could break through White Egret Mountain, but they might not be able to kill Immortal Emperor White Egret.

Once Immortal Emperor White Egret escaped, with the terrain of the Rakshasa Realm, space-time tunnels were everywhere, and the various races would definitely not have a good time in the Rakshasa Realm in the future.

The problem was!

They had no way to determine that Jiang Han was not Jiang Hen Shui's son.

If he really was, if they killed Jiang Han and Jiang Hen Shui found out, then Immortal Emperor White Egret would have to die even with the Extinction Void Blade. Jiang Hen Shui was one of the Ten Heavenly Emperors, awe-inspiring in all directions, with astonishing combat power.

"Mother!"

Bai Xue's eyes rolled, and she suddenly said, "How about… we borrow a knife to kill someone? After Jiang Han dies, we'll take the opportunity to snatch the Extinction Void Blade? As long as the person doesn't die at our hands, Jiang Hen Shui shouldn't act recklessly, right?"

"Borrow a knife?"

Bai Jie frowned and said, "Qingluan has been protecting Jiang Han, how to borrow a knife? Which knife to borrow?"

"There are many knives that can be borrowed."

Bai Xue smiled and said, "This time in the great battle, Jiang Han will probably release the Divine Sound Gold Mantis to fight."

"When the time comes, we'll use our spies in the various races to spread the news—that Jiang Han has two hundred Divine Sound Gold Mantises. The various races will definitely value it and are likely to send out a King-level expert to assassinate Jiang Han."

"In addition, we can also borrow a knife!"

Bai Xue's eyes turned and she said, "We can secretly help Jiang Han gain fame, exaggerate Jiang Han's military exploits, and praise Jiang Han!"

"Then arrange for people to spread rumors, saying that Qingluan and Jiang Han are in love. Didn't Jiang Han enter Qingluan's palace thirteen days ago? It can be said that the two single men and women are often together."

"If this news reaches Luo Lin's ears… with Luo Lin's character, Mother, do you think he can bear it?"

"When Luo Lin can't bear it and is about to take action, we'll find an excuse to trick Qingluan away…"

After listening, Bai Jie's eyes lit up. She turned her gaze to Bai Xue and sighed slightly, "Your plan… is feasible! However, on the path of martial arts, one's own combat power is the kingly way. Conspiracies and tricks are side paths. Use them less in the future…"

"You go and execute this matter, but be careful, it must be done secretly, and no handle can be left behind!"
