Chapter 533: Preparation

Ai Chen had a strong spiritual power, so she was more sensitive to danger. She could sense the bloody aura in this area and it made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Wine Master Jiu Shen, I'll call my people immediately and have them make Array Formations in this place." She said as she took out a communication crystal.

"Alright." Jiu Shen nodded. He then told his subordinates to make haste towards his location. The Heavenly Melody Pavilion was weak in terms of martial prowess, so he volunteered to guard them.

Soon, Jiu Shen's subordinates arrived.

"Greetings, Sect Master!" They bowed towards Jiu Shen.

Ai Chen swept her gaze toward the group that arrived. There were only about ten thousand of them, but their strong auras stunned her. She could even sense that the leading figures among this group could take care of her in just a few moves!

'So this is the power of his Heavenly Sword Tower! Amazing!' She was impressed by the individual prowess of Jiu Shen's subordinates.

Suddenly, she felt an ominous gaze looking at her. She shivered and moved her gaze towards the figure of a blonde-haired woman wearing dark battle armor. A mixture of coldness and melancholy can be seen on her goddess-like face.

'How beautiful!' Ai Chen exclaimed in her heart when she spotted Theia. It was the first time she felt that her beauty was inferior to someone, but why is she looking at me like that? She thought to herself in confusion.

Theia frowned as she glared at Ai Chen, but soon, her face turned gentle. 'Sister Ai Chen!'

Ai Chen was someone who shared a deep relationship with her. They shared the same sorrow when they were turned down by Jiu Shen when they asked him to take them as his disciples. They shared a common bond and treated each other as sisters. Sadly, they were forced to move apart because Theia was forcibly taken away by Celestial Emperor Lao Gou who desired her beauty.

Ai Chen suddenly understood something. 'Maybe she is Wine Master Jiu Shen's lover.'

To prevent dispute among them, Ai Chen smiled and walked toward Theia. She took her hands and held them gently as she chuckled. "Don't worry, beautiful sister. Wine Master Jiu Shen only asked for my help to set up Array Formations here."

Theia almost cried when she heard the gentle voice and her familiar scent.

Theia wanted to tell Ai Chen about her identity, but she knew that it wasn't the right time yet. Jiu Shen had just recovered his power and his cultivation was still much weaker than Celestial Emperor Lao Gou. If she disclosed her identity, Jiu Shen might suffer. 'I'm sorry, Sister Ai Chen, but I can't tell you my identity for now...'

Theia put on a cold expression and swatted her hand. She put on a distance between them and muttered. "As long as you know your place." Her tone was laced with anger.

Ai Chen smiled awkwardly at Theia. It looks like Wine Master Jiu Shen is already a married man. What a pity!

The atmosphere became weird at that moment, but luckily, Ai Chen's subordinates arrived in a timely manner to defuse the tense atmosphere.

"Greetings, Pavilion Mistress!" More than one million people dressed in white robes saluted Ai Chen respectfully.

Ai Chen put on a stern look in front of her subordinates. She then announced. "The entrance of Hell will emerge in this location!"

Her words stunned the members of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion.

"The entrance of Hell?"

"What?!"

Ai Chen raised her hand and continued. "Our task is to create Battle Array Formations and Weakening Array Formations in one day! The emergence of the entrance is coming closer and we don't have much time, so we could only create as many as we can! Move in groups of one hundred and start creating the Array Formations!"

She didn't give them time to gather their thoughts and swiftly issued her command. Ai Chen's stern voice echoed throughout the area, temporarily easing the nervousness of her subordinates.

"Yes, Pavilion Mistress!" They answered in unison.

After giving the command to her subordinates, Ai Chen moved toward Jiu Shen and said. "Wine Master Jiu Shen, I will also help my people in creating the Array Formations. I'll leave our safety in your hands."

Jiu Shen nodded his head at her. "No problem!"

After getting his answer, Ai Chen turned her gaze towards Theia before she left. "Strange. She seems familiar..." She muttered silently.

Looking at her disappearing figure, Theia sighed in her heart. She then felt her body being enveloped in a warm embrace as a gentle voice drifted to her ears. "It wouldn't be long before you can talk with her like before. Just endure for a bit longer..."

Theia nodded her head meekly. "I understand."

Everyone from the Heavenly Sword Tower moved their gazes away from the couple. They knew that Theia would punish them if they carelessly provoke her in this situation.

Jiu Shen glanced at his subordinates and said. "Our duty is to maintain the safety of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion. Go! Move out!"

Everyone dispersed in different directions and secretly monitored the safety of the area.

The Heavenly Melody Pavilion was truly a powerhouse in the field of Array Formation Making. In just a few hours, they managed to make thousands of Battle Array Formations and Weakening Array Formations! Even Jiu Shen's subordinates were impressed by their skills!

With the combined effort of more than one million Array Formation Makers, one hundred thousand Array Formations were built in just one day! That amount was enough to hold down millions upon millions of Infernals!

The members of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion were exhausted after one whole day of making Array Formations, but they were happy about their contributions to the allied force. They were also thankful to the Heavenly Sword Tower who prevented others from causing them trouble.

"Good job, everyone! However, we can't rest here! Let's head back to the camp of the allied force!" Ai Chen said in a loud voice.
