X-Dragon Era-Chapter 663 - Gold Operation_3
Therefore, the Kashi Family released a statement detailing the incident. Though they did make some alterations, they were minor. The bottom line was that they sought to persecute the Sky-opening Sect simply because it had insulted the dignity and honor of the Kashi Family—a reason that everyone could accept.
Of course, at such a time... Xin Yun could have stepped out to argue his case, and if he won the public's agreement, the Kashi Family still wouldn't dare to attack. However, it was apparent... Xin Yun had no intention of going out to explain. After all... what the Kashi Family said was true, although somewhat embellished, not to a significant degree, and not worth denying. Most importantly, Xin Yun was deep in seclusion, refining a magical artifact and was completely unaware of these events.
By the time Xin Yun emerged from seclusion, the Thirty-Six Cities had already fallen. All members of the Sky-opening Sect had withdrawn to the Pot Sky. The Kashi Family now had control over the Thirty-Six Cities.
During this time, Luo Fu had repeatedly requested preliminary battles, wishing to harshly discipline the Kashi Family. However, with Xin Yun in seclusion, no one dared to make such a critical decision. Although everyone had ideas and plans, within the Sky-opening Sect, no significant decisions could be made without Xin Yun's approval, and even the Godslayer Luo Fu was no exception.
If it had been the Godslayer Luo Fu of the past, he most certainly wouldn't have cared about anyone else's opinion. But now things were different; he had seven children, and his wife had been rescued by Xin Yun. For their sakes, and not just his own, he had to respect Xin Yun. For Luo Fu, other things had become insignificant; his wife and children were of utmost importance in his heart. And Xin Yun happened to be the source of eternal life for his wife, his children, and himself!
Finally, with just nine days left before the World Academy competition, Xin Yun completed his seclusion. After testing the power of the newly refined Kongtong Seal, he had just landed back on the ground when he was surrounded by everyone.
Facing the crowd's angry demand for battle, Xin Yun frowned slightly. He then took the lead towards the direction of the great hall. After an entire afternoon of discussion, ultimately... Xin Yun decided to launch a counterattack against the Kashi Family at midnight that very night!
In the past two months, although without Xin Yun's involvement, under Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying's meticulous planning and investigation, the strategic deployment had been thoroughly completed. Now, what was left was to carry out the strategic deployment step by step as provided by Yi Luo Xiang!
For this battle, Yi Luo Xiang called it the Gold War. The purpose of the fight was not just to defeat the opponent or simply to demonstrate the style and characteristics of the Sky-opening Sect. Most importantly, it was to seize a vast amount of gold from the Kashi Family!
The Kashi Family was also known as the Golden Family. Therefore... both in terms of the purpose of the battle and its designation, calling this campaign the Gold War couldn't be more appropriate.
The first battle was very important, setting the tone and pattern for all subsequent battles. It was absolutely exemplary. Hence... Xin Yun personally led the fight, with Yi Luo Xiang as the military strategist, Yan Qingying as the counsel, Luo Fu as the general, and Ming Xuan as the liaison officer, leading all the Stellar War Generals of the Sky-opening Sect towards the Kashi Family's territory.
The Kashi Family was indeed substantial, teeming with experts. However... they possessed countless gold mines and controlled innumerable cities. So, in reality, there were only one or two Diamond Masters at each gold mine or city. If there were extra Diamond Masters, it would be better to control an additional city rather than crowd them all in one. That would be a waste.
The target for Xin Yun and others this time was a large gold mine of the Kashi Family, one of the top ten strongest under their control. Most importantly, it housed a Golden Family gold storage vault with mountains of gold. The Diamond Masters stationed there numbered as many as ten. There was no way to silently steal all the gold without a trace. With the perception of Diamond Masters, the Five Mice would likely be discovered as soon as they appeared—how could they be stolen?

According to investigations, among the ten Diamond Masters, six were One Star, three were Two Star, and one was Three Star. With the Top Ten Diamond Masters in command, there was almost no need to worry about any surprise attacks.
At night, the entire Gold City lay in silence. In a corner of Gold City, a golden light bridge suddenly appeared in midair. Accompanying the emergence of the golden light bridge, a massive swarm of Giant Dragons fluttered their wings, streaming out from the bridge towards a gold storage not far away.
Indeed, these Giant Dragons were the 108 Stellar War Generals of the Sky-opening Sect, along with the five leaders of the sect. Once they crossed the golden bridge, everyone flew silently towards the direction of the gold vault. However... although silent, the appearance of the Sky-opening Sect's forces instantly raised the vigilance of Gold City's Top Ten Diamond Masters who summoned their Giant Dragons to arrive above the gold vault in ready battle formation!
The ten Diamond Masters hovered solemnly above the gold vault. The so-called vault was actually constructed within the belly of a giant mountain, accessible only through one path, with an array of prohibitions surrounding it. As long as the entrance was guarded, no one could get inside.
Sensing the rapidly approaching enemy, the Ten Diamond Masters were initially worried, but they soon smiled. With their perception abilities, they quickly sensed the strength of the incoming foes: they were just about the level of Amethyst Six Star, with only one Diamond-level adversary who was a mere Two Star. As for the others, the Ten Diamond Masters considered them insignificant; any Two Star Diamond Master could annihilate them entirely with ease.
Suddenly, a dense swarm of the Dragon Group appeared ahead. Although there were only a little over a hundred Giant Dragons, their enormous size made it appear as if the sky was blanketed, creating an impressively majestic sight. Yet, in the eyes of the Ten Diamond Masters, except for the Mad Dragon Tie Zhan, the rest were nothing but chickens and dogs.(To be continued, for more, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
