King of Assassins-Chapter 694 - 518 Planning_2

But once Gao Xuan gains access to the Glory Company's database, she'll find it hard to intervene further.
Enduring longer would almost certainly result in defeat.
Liu Yun was also a bit helpless; at this point, she could only coax the Liu Family into fighting desperately alongside her.
The others were just worthless, and that was fine. But Liu Ye was a formidable character.
With his Red Emperor Sword, he could slay an ordinary Evil God with ease. If he truly clashed with Gao Xuan, he might not necessarily lose.
To entice Liu Ye into action, she could only bring out the Investiture of the Gods. Only such a marvel could move Liu Ye's heart.
As for the Five Blessings Order, it was not much of a concern. Although it could make one's luck extraordinarily good, it couldn't decide major matters.
She had everything going smoothly with the Five Blessings Order. But just as she was about to achieve great success, Gao Xuan suddenly appeared.
Such a powerful Gao Xuan couldn't be resisted head-on by any luck-defying means.
The Investiture of the Gods contained Divine Power. This was power that could truly make one divine.
With Liu Ye's insight, he would surely see the power of the Investiture of the Gods. Moreover, it held a special allure for the strong.
Liu Ye had survived for fifteen hundred years, relying entirely on the Great Wind Order.
Yet the divinity of the Investiture of the Gods held immortal power. How could Liu Ye resist?
The Investiture of the Gods might not enchant Liu Ye, but it could affect his judgment. Liu Ye's attitude towards Gao Xuan was not friendly; he was just unwilling to take risks.
With the Investiture of the Gods as leverage, it was enough to change Liu Ye's mind.
About this, Liu Yun was quite confident. Humans were simply too shallow and simple. What they think and seek cannot escape instinct.
Of course, Liu Ye might also seize the Investiture of the Gods for himself but might not wish to oppose Gao Xuan.
However, just by writing Gao Xuan's name on the Investiture of the Gods, there was a chance to kill him. The temptation was too great for Liu Ye to refuse.
Furthermore, even just to test the power of the Investiture of the Gods, Liu Ye would try it out.
Once Gao Xuan's name was listed, it would actually bind his fate to the Investiture, as well as Liu Ye's fate.
By then, Liu Ye would know how powerful the causal force of the Investiture was. He wouldn't even have the chance to just watch the drama unfold.
The Black Cat couldn't help but ask, "Will there be problems if Gao Xuan's name is written on the Investiture of the Gods?"
"He hasn't even obtained the Sword Saint title twice yet."
Liu Yun was very confident about this, "Gao Xuan is also worried that there might be issues with the Sword Saint title, which is why he rushed to seize the database."
The matter of the Sword Saint title is essentially controlled by the game company. They can find any excuse to block Gao Xuan's account, making it impossible for him to obtain the Sword Saint title.
In fact, ever since the Investiture of the Gods established the conditions for divine enthronement, Liu Yun had been watching everyone who met the conditions for the title.
Once someone fulfilled two conditions for divine enthronement, she would inevitably intervene.
Strong individuals are busy and few have time to rack up achievements on the Glory Battle Net.
Liu Yun had been controlling database access in various ways for a thousand years. It was only in this generation that she found a suitable vessel to personally seize control of the database access.
Thus, any chance of others coincidentally meeting divine enthronement conditions was completely eradicated.
The Black Cat worriedly asked again, "Master, what if we fail to kill Gao Xuan?"
"If Gao Xuan can't be killed, then the divine fire must be ignited immediately for forced divine enthronement."
A glint of determination appeared in Liu Yun's eyes; she would never give up on thousands of years of scheming.
Although the Divine Format was yet to be fully formed, it should still suffice.
Three points are crucial in virtual godhood: first, the Investiture of the Gods; second, the database of the Glory Battle Net; third, the Divine Format.
The Investiture can convert all accumulated Spiritual Power from the battle net, which is stored in data form in the database. Of course, this database has been modified.
That's why the Ice Sea housing the database insulates all Source Power—to prevent the endless Spiritual Power stored from dissipating.
The Divine Format serves as the vessel for Liu Yun's divine power. Only once it forms can she absorb all the converted divine power.
The immense Spiritual Energy gathered from billions would naturally contain innumerable emotions and memories. A Divine Format is necessary to protect her Divine Soul from being overwhelmed by endless Spiritual Energy.
Liu Yun had long satisfied the conditions for divine enthronement; she delayed it only because the Divine Format was incomplete.
The Black Cat quickly flattered, "The master will surely succeed in divine enthronement."
It added with a sycophantic smile, "At that time, I can follow the master to immortality. Just thinking about it is exciting..."
Liu Yun smiled; this cat had also become slick and clever after a thousand years in the Positive Cosmos.
As her soul contract servant, the cat was intimately connected with her.
However, divine enthronement is of great importance and immensely challenging.
This cat also wishes to achieve immortality alongside her, but that's thinking too much. Nothing in the Cosmos is that easy.
Liu Yun smirked internally but said nothing more. Letting the Black Cat be happy for now was fine.
They had spent more than a thousand years together, developing some sentiment.
Liu Yun had learned some principles of humanity during her long stay in the Alliance, knowing not to say hurtful words in even the best relationships. Not even the truth.
Furthermore, she still needed this Black Cat to work hard.
In her room, Liu Yun tidied up a bit before closing her eyes for a brief rest. When the time came, someone would naturally come to escort her.
At exactly eight o'clock standard time, the sky over Weiyang Palace had already turned completely dark.
Tonight, the starry sky was clear, with three moons overhead. In the moonlight as bright as water, Weiyang Palace appeared even more serene and profound.
Only the main hall of Weiyang Palace was brightly lit, with one or two thousand people in formal dress inside.
According to traditional etiquette, Liu Feng and Gao Xuan sat side by side in the central main seats, the highest courtesy in receiving esteemed guests.
The center of the main hall featured performances of singing and dancing, primarily expressing a joyful and celebratory atmosphere.
Guests seated on either side could converse freely, as the hall's atmosphere was somewhat noisy. Yet, this noise allowed everyone to relax.
Yun Qingshang was seated by Gao Xuan's lower side, quietly watching the performance in the hall with no emotion in her eyes.
Standing behind Yun Qingshang were the two beauties, Liu Jin and Liu Xiu, who initially wanted to chat casually with Yun Qingshang to foster some connection.
But Yun Qingshang only responded with single words, making it impossible for the conversation to continue.
The two beauties could only frequently interact with Gao Xuan, but Gao Xuan was always surrounded by various people, leaving no chance for them to speak.
Liu Jin was feeling a bit frustrated when she noticed Liu Yun approaching.
This time, even Liu Feng stood up voluntarily to introduce her to Gao Xuan, showing how important Liu Yun was to the Liu family.
Although Liu Yun suggested killing Gao Xuan, which went against Liu Feng's intentions, he still had to show respect to Liu Yun in public.
Gao Xuan also stood up with a smile; under normal circumstances, he was quite polite.
"Mr. Gao is truly peerless in elegance. If I were a few hundred years younger, I would definitely pursue you..."
Liu Yun's eyes were full of unabashed admiration, not just pretending, because Gao Xuan himself was exceedingly handsome and exuded exceptional charisma.
Especially those deep blue eyes, as profound as the starry sky, clear and mysterious, filled with allure.
Having lived for so long, she hadn't encountered such an outstanding individual.
Liu Yun was certain Gao Xuan had some special power, which made him so incredibly charming.
She even felt a pang of regret in her heart. Such a person was truly a pity.
However, being able to personally slay such a magnificent person would also be quite satisfying!
Liu Yun, with her immense cunning, harbored thoughts of killing Gao Xuan but showed no sign of it.
Knowing Liu Yun was the president of Glory Battle Net, Gao Xuan's smile grew even brighter, "I'm a veteran player of the Battle Net. I've come to visit the headquarters of the Glory Battle Net, President Liu, please take care of me..."
