Chapter 1483: Let Me Control The Merits Battleground

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The Luosha Princess giggles and nods her pale chin. “Yes. As long as you work with the Great Devil Ten Square Field, the Hell Blade and Purple Mansion Field won’t be able to do anything.”

Chu Siyuan didn’t think Zhang Ruochen would answer like this. Furious, he said, “You… You were part of the Kunlun’s Field before. Did you forget your roots so quickly just for a demoness?”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t reply. He was very cold.

The Saint Lady’s pretty eyes were trained on Zhang Ruochen. She knew that Zhang Ruochen hadn’t changed, but he’d suffered too many restrictions, insults, lies, and misunderstandings in the Kunlun’s Field. This was why he hated it so much.

Deep inside, he might still want to help Kunlun’s Field.

Seeing how close Zhang Ruochen and the Luosha Princess were, Martial Saint Canglan was greatly annoyed. She turned and prepared to leave. “Whatever. Since he’s not willing to work with us, we’ll go right now. What use is there to speak more? Zhang Ruochen, the next time we meet will be a battle to the death.”

“Wait.”

The Saint Lady walked over and said to Zhang Ruochen, “How about we talk alone?”

“Sure,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen and the Saint Lady walked side by side. One wore armor while the other wore a white scholarly robe. One harsh and one soft, they walked among the red fallen leaves, forming a beautiful view.

The Saint Lady was gentle, scholarly, and elegant. She thought for a moment before saying, “The merits affect the survival of an entire world. If they’re really forced to desperation, the three weaker worlds—the Kunlun’s Field, Hell Blade Field, and Tianmu Field—will do everything to get the Merits Records Wall. By then, no matter how strong the Great Devil Ten Square Field is, they’ll suffer great losses.

“The Great Devil Ten Square Field is the strongest of the Shatuo Seven Fields. They don’t have to worry about being last at all. Even if they’re last in the Saints Merits Battle, they’ll still win the other three battlegrounds. This way, they won’t want to cooperate with the Guanghan Field if their losses are too much. By then, you and the Guanghan Field may end up alone.”

“I know,” Zhang Ruochen said.

The Saint Lady stopped walking. Her slender eyebrows raised as she stared at Zhang Ruochen’s chiseled face. “With the current situation, no world will dare to work with you unless you hand over the Merits Records Wall. Even the Saints of the Guanghan Field will be in danger of dying if they protect you.”

There was nothing that couldn’t be said before the Saint Lady. Zhang Ruochen’s expression became solemn. “I sense great danger. You should sense it too, right?”

The Saint Lady nodded softly. “The Luosha Race.”

“Yes.” Zhang Ruochen continued, “No matter how we fight, our true enemy is definitely the Luosha Race. I stole the Merits Records Wall because I didn’t want to see the bloodshed from the Saints of the Shatuo Seven Fields and get taken by the Luosha in the end.”

“The Luosha destroyed the other three Merits Records Walls,” the Saint Lady said. “They only left the one in the Phoenix Nest to make us fight each other.”

“If I agreed to work with the Kunlun’s Field,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Even if the Kunlun’s Field can exchange for a large amount of merits, it’ll still be done under attacks from the other worlds. Is that kind of partnership meaningful?”

The Saint Lady realized that Zhang Ruochen was clearer about the situation than anyone else. He didn’t need her reminders at all, so she asked, “Then what is your plan now?”

“My only way to survive now is to control the entire Saints Merits Battle by myself.”

“Are you serious?” The Saint Lady was a bit shocked.

“Do you think I’m joking?”

The Saint Lady pressed her lips together in deep thought. Suddenly, her eyes brightened. She seemed to understand Zhang Ruochen’s intent. “The Merits Records Wall is a hot potato but also your most important trump card. If you use it well, you might really be able to control the entire Saints Merits Battle.”

“So, I need partners, and not only the Kunlun’s Field,” Zhang Ruochen said. “I also need the Great Devil Ten Square Field, Tianmu Field, and Eight Ministry Field. I also need to choose someone for the bottom, such as the Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion Field.”

The Saint Lady was very wise, so she understood Zhang Ruochen’s goal.

First, the Hell Blade and Purple Mansion Field would never be last place in a regular Saints Merits Battle. This way, the last place would most likely be the Kunlun’s Field or Tianmu Field. They would choose to work with Zhang Ruochen and defeat the other two fields.

Second, if the Great Devil Ten Square Field, Guanghan Field, Kunlun’s Field, and Tianmu Field were on one side, how would the Eight Ministry Field not know how to choose? With Mad Man’s help, the Eight Ministry Field would probably work with Zhang Ruochen too.

If the five worlds were on one side, only the Purple Mansion Field and Hell Blade Field would be left. No matter how unwilling they were, there was a great difference in power. They probably wouldn’t dare to attack the other five fields.

Zhang Ruochen’s solution could avoid internal conflicts between the seven worlds and also benefit himself.

“It works technically,” the Saint Lady said. “But there are too many variables in actuality. It’s too difficult and filled with dangers. If you make one mistake, you’ll never be able to recover. That Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine is a huge variable. In addition, the Eight Ministry Field is very strong. They might not be willing to be used by you.”

Zhang Ruochen looked up at the sunlight poking in from between the leaves. “There is no perfect strategy in this dangerous battlefield. If there’s a path that I can take, I should try it. Come, let us return.”

The Saint Lady was silent for a moment as if pondering something. “Do you know? Huang Yanchen went missing!”

“Yes,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Seeing how indifferent Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were, the Saint Lady asked, “Don’t you want to know where she is? Or if she’s still alive?”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Does it really not matter?” the Saint Lady asked.

“Let’s not talk about this. Come.”

Zhang Ruochen walked back, hands behind his back.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen and the Saint Lady return, Martial Saint Canglan’s eyes went to the Saint Lady inquisitively. The Saint Lady just smiled and nodded in answer.

“I already discussed with Lady Nalan,” Zhang Ruochen said. “It’s not impossible to work with the Kunlun’s Field. But if you want to exchange merits here, you must give me 30%.”

“Thirty percent?” Chu Siyuan asked. “You want to take 30% of the merits that we risked our lives for without doing anything? You’re heartless.”

“It’s okay if you’re unwilling,” Zhang Ruochen said. “There will be other worlds who are willing to work with me.”

“Wait.”

Chu Siyuan combed his whiskers and his eyes looked around. “How about 20%?”

“Anyway, when the Guanghan Field becomes number one of the Saints Merits Battle, I will destroy the Merits Records Wall. By then, you won’t be able to exchange for merits no matter how much Luosha blood and souls you have.”

“Okay, I accept,” Chu Siyuan said quickly.

After coming to an agreement, Chu Siyuan and the Nine Heavenly Maidens took out all of their Luosha blood and souls. They gave one-third to Zhang Ruochen.

Even if it was one-third, Zhang Ruochen still got five million merits. Now, the Guanghan Field had more than 93 million merits.

The Kunlun’s Field had more than 42 million merits. They became one spot higher, surpassing the Hell Blade Field to become fifth place.

After exchanging the merits, the Nine Heavenly Maidens and Chu Siyuan left immediately. They would go look for other Saints of the Kunlun’s Field and bring more Luosha blood and souls to exchange with Zhang Ruochen.

The Luosha Princess watched calmly. When the Nine Heavenly Maidens and Chu Siyuan were far away, she finally said, “The Kunlun’s Field won’t allow you to control them like this. They’ll definitely have take some sort of action. What if they bring a large group of strong figures and suddenly try to steal the Merits Records Wall?”

Zhang Ruochen issued an order to Han Qiu and Demonic Sound. “You two, spread the news as fast as possible. The Kunlun’s Field, Tianmu Field, Eight Ministry Field, and Great Devil Ten Square Field only have to give up a little to exchange merits with Zhang Ruochen. As for the Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion Field, they are enemies of Zhang Ruochen. Zhang Ruochen refuses to work with them.”

Han Qiu and Demonic Sound exchanged glances with a smile. They understood Zhang Ruochen’s intentions. They transformed into two shadows and disappeared in the forest.

It suddenly dawned on the Luosha Princess. “You want the Kunlun’s Field, Tianmu Field, Eight Ministry Field, and Great Devil Ten Square to restrict each other. You purposely suppress the Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion, to make the others feel better and fight to work with you. This is smart, but aren’t you afraid of getting bitten?”

“Of course,” Zhang Ruochen said. “That’s why I must be careful. First, I need to find a safe place as the exchange spot.”

“Are there still any safe spots?”

Zhang Ruochen pointed into the depths of the 99 mountains. “The most dangerous place is the safest. It is very dangerous deep within the Phoenix Nest. Very few Saints can enter. This way, I won’t fall into the desperate situation of being surrounded by thousands of Saints.”

Once Han Qiu and Demonic Sound spread the news, it would definitely cause an uproar. Many people would be furious and feel that Zhang Ruochen was wildly greedy. The Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion Field would be especially furious.

By then, many people would try to take action.

Thus, Zhang Ruochen didn’t dare to stay in the forest. He immediately went into the 99 saint mountains.

Mad Man knew of Zhang Ruochen’s plan. He was afraid that Zhang Ruochen would destroy the Merits Records Wall after the Guanghan Field reached first place. Thus, he hurried to contact the Saints of the Eight Ministry Field to persuade them to work with Zhang Ruochen.

Of course, this was also a good chance for Mad Man to get benefits.
