Planning

"Let me think about it..."

Margaret's words made Dustin fall into deep thought.

Carrying the destiny of a country is not a small task. First of all, you have to be strong enough to bear it, and secondly, you have to have the corresponding awareness.

Once the destiny of the country is in your hands, it is equivalent to an additional heavy responsibility.

In the past, he could do whatever he wanted without worrying too much, but it will be completely different after he is responsible for the fate of the country.

Of course, he doesn't have much choice now.

Either hide in Longhu Mountain and seek protection from the old Taoist priest; or give it a try and directly absorb the national destiny to break through.

Relatively speaking, he would still choose the latter.

“I can try your method, but I’m still short of one strand of Dragon Source Qi. To truly implement it, I have to get the last strand of Dragon Source Qi.” Dustin suddenly said.

Only when the energy of the dragon source is gathered together can it be considered a complete national destiny.

"You're right."

Margaret nodded: "Regarding the last strand of Dragon Origin Qi, I have ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation. It is confirmed that it is now in the hands of my third brother Li Juntang, but where it is hidden is unknown for the time being."

Although her intelligence network is powerful, it is impossible for her to completely infiltrate the royal family. It is already very difficult to find some clues.

After all, investigating members of the royal family is a big taboo, and once the news leaks, it can easily cause disaster.

"Li Juntang?"

Dustin narrowed his eyes slightly: "That is indeed a bit troublesome."

Li Juntang is a man of both civil and military talents, scheming and cunning. Despite his noble status and huge influence, it is undoubtedly a very difficult task to retrieve the Dragon Source Qi from him.

"Actually, I do have a way, but it's a bit risky, and I need your help." Margaret suddenly said.

"Oh? What method?" Dustin raised his eyebrows.

"Li Juntang is a very greedy person. Just one strand of Dragon Source Qi is not enough to satisfy him. If he wants to succeed to the throne, he needs at least three strands of Dragon Source Qi to push his fortune to the extreme. I can use this to make a secret move." Margaret smiled meaningfully.

"Feigning one thing while doing another?" Dustin was a little puzzled.

“Doesn’t Li Juntang need the Dragon Source Energy? Then we can give it to him. We can use the Dragon Source Energy in our hands to draw out the Dragon Source Energy in Li Juntang’s hands, and then catch them all in one fell swoop and put them all in our pockets!” Margaret said shockingly.

"This method is not bad, but as you said, it is indeed a bit risky." Dustin nodded thoughtfully.

Margaret's method was undoubtedly to use a child to trap a wolf.

Success would be the best, but failure would be a huge loss.

"For the sake of the Dragon Energy and the country's destiny, this risk is worth taking. As long as you cooperate with my plan, I am at least 70% sure of success." Margaret was very confident.

"Oh? What do you need me to do?" Dustin asked.

"It's very simple. I need you to pretend to surrender and offer a stream of Dragon Source Energy to Li Juntang to gain his trust. I will leave a special mark in this stream of Dragon Source Energy, and you can find a suitable opportunity to take it out. If you are lucky, you should be able to steal the Dragon Source Energy in Li Juntang's hands back." Margaret said.

The Dragon Source Qi needs to be stored in a special container, so it is likely that Li Juntang will put the two Dragon Source Qi together.

When Dustin takes back his original dragon source energy, he will have the opportunity to steal Li Juntang's dragon source energy.

In other words, it means fishing with bait.

Whether you can catch fish or not depends on 30% luck and 70% strength.

After all, Li Juntang’s mansion is not so easy to break into. Even if you can find the location of the treasure house, whether you can get in and successfully retrieve the Dragon Source Energy depends on whether Dustin has the ability to do so.

"I understand." Dustin nodded: "When do we start?"

"The two great gods of the Pantheon have already arrived in Stonia and will find you soon. You don't have much time left, so it's best to take action tomorrow." Margaret said.

Time waits for no one. The sooner the Dragon Source Qi is recovered, the more beneficial it will be for Dustin.

"Okay, tomorrow." Dustin did not refuse.

"I will deliberately release some information to let Li Juntang know that you have the Dragon Source Energy, so that he will come to you actively. This is more reasonable."

At this point, Margaret suddenly changed the subject: "But you still have to be careful. Li Juntang is a very suspicious person. It is not easy to gain his trust. After entering his mansion, you have to seize the opportunity and don't be reckless."

"Thank you for the reminder. I know what I am doing." Dustin smiled.

He had been to Li Juntang's mansion once, so he was not unfamiliar with it.

Besides, he was just stealing, not robbing, so he wouldn't fight to the death with anyone.

The question now is, how can he steal successfully without arousing suspicion?

This is something worth pondering.

He has to find a way to get himself out. - Ton

I predict another 50 chapters for this stealing arc before the story gets back to the two Pantheon gods.

Will Dustin contact the clone mistress, Azalea to help him pretend to be Li Juntang in order to steal the DSE?

Elder Whitebone

Li Juntang knew the white figure was powerful, but he hadn’t expected it to be this powerful. In just a matter of minutes, the figure had devoured the overwhelming red mist using a technique like a divine dragon drawing in water, leaving not a trace behind. Such divine ability was far beyond anything he could imagine. Seeing it with his own eyes was far more shocking than anything he’d heard. Once the red mist vanished, the white figure waved a hand, and the energy vortex quickly dissipated. A blood-red bead slowly floated down from high above and finally landed in the white figure’s palm. Seeing the opportunity was ripe, Li Juntang immediately channeled his true qi and shouted, “You have dispersed the poisonous mist with divine powers and saved the entire city from disaster. I, Li Juntang, thank you on behalf of the people of this city. May I have the honor of meeting you face to face to express our gratitude properly?” This statement was skillfully crafted --- first, p...

Breaking The Siege

“Boom!!” A thunderous crash shook the earth. The moment the white figure landed, golden gales erupted from around him. The zombies that had rushed close were instantly shattered, as if colliding with an invisible barrier. Their grayish bodies exploded into fragments. Thick blackish-brown corpse fluid splattered onto the stone bricks, releasing foul-smelling steam that coiled into the air. “It’s that peerless master!” Someone shouted from within the inner gate fortress, and the once-terrified citizens suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers. When the red mist crisis had hit Lincheng, they had seen it with their own eyes --- a divine figure in white had absorbed the entire mist with unfathomable powers, saving the city from destruction. Now, with zombies besieging their ancient stronghold, seeing that familiar white figure again was like witnessing the return of their savior. “He’s finally here!” Li Guanglong, gripping his bloodstained saber, let out a long sigh of reli...

Tsunami

Li Wenxing followed Qian Jin’s line of sight and saw a ball of white light speeding across the sky in the distance. Wherever the light passed, it sliced a long trail through the clouds , splitting even the thickest formations clean in half. In just two breaths, the white light had already arrived above the port, bringing with it a howling gale that rocked their helicopter violently. Once the winds settled, Li Wenxing looked up --- and saw a man in white robes . The two weren’t far apart --- just about two hundred meters. With Li Wenxing’s eyesight, he should’ve been able to clearly make out the man’s face. But strangely, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t see his features at all . It was as if there was a mist obscuring the man’s face --- like something stood between them, clouding his vision. “Uncle Qian, can you see that peerless expert’s face clearly?” Li Wenxing asked Qian Jin. “No, it’s completely concealed. He must be deliberately hiding his appearance,”...
