Hearing Wan Han"s words, everyone in the room who were nervous to the extreme breathed a sigh of relief.None of them might have said anything until now, but if they truly were to go against a False Immortal Realm Cultivator most of them would"ve backed out right away.
Understanding the same thing, Wan Han continued by saying, "I even have a method to make sure that expert doesn"t interfere in the war even if we defeat the Yueliang Empire."
"Out strategy of fighting against the Yueliang Empire is all going to be the same, except a small difference."
"Other than creating a special group to subdue Jian Shen, those of you who meet him should only try and knock him out without harming him in any way."
"As long as we manage to not injure him, I doubt if the False Immortal Realm Cultivator would care even if we destroyed the Yueliang Empire."
Nodding their heads one by one at this plausible solution, one of them finally asked, "But, while we are trying to stop him he has no reason to hold back does he? In that case wouldn"t our losses be too much for just holding one individual back?"
Sighing helplessly Wan Han explained, "Don"t think of it as wasting soldiers to hold Jian Shen back. Instead, think of it as the only way to keep a terrifying monster from destroying all us."
Listening to all of this, while a few of them agreed with the Emperor there were quite a few who were not willing to use such a strategy to hold Jian Shen back.
Only being able to defend while he would attack them? Given how vividly Wan Han explained about his strength the losses they would incur would definitely be huge.
As for those who belonged to the sects, they were actually hoping for the Taiyang Empire to do something stupid and cause the False Immortal Realm Cultivator to make an appearance and show her strength.
After all, it wasn"t every day that one could see a False Immortal Realm Cultivator with their own eyes.
Guessing what they were thinking, Wan Han could only bitterly smile at how they weren"t caring about what would happen to the Taiyang Empire in the slightest and were only here for fun.
But no matter how much Wan Han tried to ignore the others, looking towards Qi Li who despite being a respectable Sect Leader was itching for a fight like a little kid, Wan Han felt that at least she should put on a dignified expression and try to act like she cared.
At the same time, Wan Han began thinking if the other three Great Sects had chosen to support the Yueliang Empire after learning about the possibility of the mysterious expert behind Jian Shen helping them in the war
Sigh.... If only he had chosen to support me.
Why did he even choose that weak Empire anyway?
...
Back near the all when the sun had long since set down and it was night, Jian Shen who could guess that there would be no more attacks launched by the Taiyang Empire was thinking about what he should do from tomorrow onwards.
It was then that he suddenly said, "I didn"t expect to see you so soon."
"I just couldn"t help myself from wanting to see you again."
Not even turning around, Jian Shen continued looking towards the moon while Xiulan came and sat beside him.
"Why did you choose to support the Yueliang Empire?"
"Because I didn"t know that someone like you was a part of the Taiyang Empire."
"That"s sweet, but I want to know the truth."
"The truth? Did the Emperor put you up for this?"

Shaking her head and resting her head on Jian Shen"s shoulder, Xiulan let out a pleasant sigh and said, "I"m just feeling curious."
Smiling and not caring about the reason behind it, Jian Shen spoke the truth.
"Because the Yueliang Empire was the weaker one."
Thinking for a second Xiulan understood all she needed to.
So this is how a False Immortal Realm Cultivator trains her disciple.
Making him fight against the stronger Empire, and most likely putting in the condition that he had to make the weaker Empire win, the expert most likely never had the intention to partic.i.p.ate in the war.
And if her guess wasn"t wrong, even if Jian Shen gets hurt the expert would only intervene and take him away without helping either side in winning the war.
Once she understood this a spark lot up in her eyes to which Jian Shen asked, "You"ve figured something out and need to go, right?"
Nodding her head at how she had no other choice, Xiulan truly hoped that the war would be over soon.
But before that, she needed to confirm something.
"Even if you get injured in the war, the expert behind you wouldn"t eliminate the Taiyang Empire in a fit of anger, right?"
Looking towards Xiulan with a weird expression, Jian Shen chuckled a little and said, "I"m sure they wouldn"t."
Nodding her head and hiding the surprise from hearing the word "they", Xiulan was about to say something when Jian Shen continued by saying, "Okay, see you later."
Having expected for Jian Shen to take this decision of hers in the wrong way and think that she was seducing him to just obtain information, Xiulan was a little stunned at how he reacted.
"Oh... See you later."
Leaving while using her control over the Intent of s.p.a.ce to quickly arrive back in the capital city, Xiulan let the Emperor know of her recent findings.
"So how sure are you of this information?"
"A hundred per cent. I asked him on my own."
"That"s great news."
"Also, there"s something else I need to inform you, your Majesty."
"Oh? Do tell."
"There isn"t just one False Immortal Realm Cultivator behind Jian Shen."
"Not just one? How many?!"
Shaking her head towards Wan Han who stood up in shock, Xiulan said, "He only used the word "they" so I presume there is more than one. But I don"t know how many there are."
Nodding his head with a grim expression, Wan Han commenced another emergency meeting to share the newly obtained information.
And inform that the original strategy would remain unchanged and that there was no need to hold back against Jian Shen.
