The plan that Ryujin Osmond propose was for Shin Jiao with another three array formation experts and a large group of an army to attack the entrapment barrier of the enemy.

They would forcefully breakthrough and create a hole in the entrapment array. With a hole in the array open, the lords would immediately rush and exit the entrapment array. In this process, they would be able to slaughter their way out and disable the barrier before its completion.

But this is a suicide attempt as they are not sure of the entrapment barrier would be easily breached by the array experts.

It was a long shot, but it is their only chance to turn this battle around and prevent the enemy from completely imprisoning the town.

It took the enemy almost the whole day and thousands of their soldiers to complete the barrier. Once they take it down, the town would be able to counter-attack the enemy.

But of course, this is on the premise that the barrier would be breached and the lords would be able to slay their way out.

Shin Jiao did not know this as his focus was on the glyphs and runes on the table. But he trusted Ryujin so he did not mind helping out.

Everyone inside the hall was quiet at this moment. They didn't know what to think of this young man. They didn't know why the high lord employed this person who has a low power level, but knowing that this is the one responsible for creating those artifacts, their doubts were lessened.

"Young man, are you sure you are confident of this mission?" suddenly a lord asked as he is still in doubt.

This is because he is one of the array experts that would be going to this mission and he is confident of his own skill and attainment in arrays. But looking at the young man in front of him, he could not help but doubt even with those pieces of evidence already out there.

"High Lord, may I request to try the young master's prowess in array formation?"

Everyone in the room turns their gaze towards high lord Ryujin.

Ryujin, on the other hand, shifted his gaze to Shin Jiao who just shrugged his shoulder as if he didn't care.

Although Shin Jiao wanted to stay low profile, however, at this moment he would prefer to help. If the humans are enslaved and he did nothing, then how could he live with himself? So he is willing to show them just a part of his skill.

Ryujin then smile and nodded his head.

"Alright, you only have an hour to prepare, the others could not hold on any longer. Before they fully close the entrapment barrier we should execute the plan and open a path then kill those spell casters… everyone, prepare for battle!…"

As he said those, the people inside the hall did not bother questioning anymore. They have already been given the command, plus it's not them who would be sacrificed so they just walk out of the hall.

While everyone is walking out a figure stood on the side of the door while looking at the ceiling.

Shin Jiao who is walking with Ryujin noticed the woman. When their eyes met, he noticed the woman's face turning red.

He almost wanted to laugh at this time as the woman who seems to be angry at him a while ago and wanting to scheme before him, suddenly became like this. He could not say anything at this moment. He is aware that people have different attitudes and characters; hence he is not surprised that the woman would react as such.

"Prepare for departure, I'm going first," Ryujin said as he patted Shin Jiao's shoulder.

After the high lord left and the rest of the lords are gone, only Shin Jiao and Joanne Vine were left inside the large hall.

She suddenly looks him in the eyes and lifted her chin in a proud manner.

"Why did you wink at me? Do you… like me?" she said while looking at Shin Jiao in an imposing manner.

Shin Jiao already expected this and did not answer her query; instead, he asked a question of his own.

"Why is lord Vine hostile towards me? I did you no wrong nor the Vine clan?" Shin Jiao said with a serious tone.

"Humph! You did not offend us? Do you know that the Mills family is under our protection? You have offended the Mills therefore you offended us."

"Wait… Sigh… I was not looking for trouble with the Mills. They are the one who looks for trouble with me…" Shin Jiao said with a smirk.

"Do you think it's fine for that crazy Grim Mills to throw his weight around and bully others? And then comes the stupid elder brother who spoils his brother rotten?"

"That is your word against theirs…"

"Ask everyone in that area. Investigate, don't just listen one-sidedly. Or are you the likes of those who bully the weak and fear the strong?"

"No matter what reason you have. You already crossed the line and fought against the Mills. It's either you go down and be submissive to our clan, or else suffer the consequence of crossing us…" she said in an imposing manner.

"But… there is another way. You… you become my man and I will protect you." Joanne said with a blush.

Shin Jiao almost laugh out loud but hold his laughter inside.

"Sigh… after this battle. If that is so, then I will make my choice…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

Joanne Vine suddenly feels elated, inside her mind, she knew that if she could get this man, then her power and influence would surely grow. What kind of family are the Mills, they are just part of the lower class families in the Vine and Vin clans. If she wanted to, she could even enslave the family on her will. But she would not that for now.

She could still use the family to threaten this man named Si Ji.

However, the next words from Shin Jiao made Joanne's expression turned grim.

"I will give this decision to High Lord Ryujin. As a lord of the town threatens me, I could only hide and not participate in this battle. You can tell the high lord to face the enemy on your own." Shin Jiao said as he turns around and left.

She was taken aback and was not able to react immediately. But then after coming to herself, she immediately ran towards Shin Jiao who has just left the hall.

"You… wait! Wait!" she shouted as she appears next to Shin Jiao in a blink of an eye.

A sneer appears on her beautiful mouth as she suddenly walks closer to Shin Jiao's ears.

"Do you think you can threaten me? The men I want would always be mine." She said with a grin.

Shin Jiao did not know if what she is telling him is the truth or not, so he decided to check for himself. He suddenly grabs Joanne's hand as they face each other.

Unknown to her, his absolute sense is already at work and has scanned her body. Then a smirk appears on his handsome face.

She is untouched and is still a maiden. But he was a bit surprised that she could act really well.

"No woman ever threatens me and gets away with it." Shin Jiao said.

After his words, a strong force suddenly locks him in his place as his expression change.

"Domain…" he thought.

But it did not last long as his own domain immediately freed his body. Unknown to Joanne, Shin Jiao has already escaped her gasp. What she is holding right now is his psychokinesis ability.

"You dare threatens a lord, you insignificant ant!" she said as she extended her hand to grab Shin Jiao's neck.

But before she could get hold of him, a hand stopped her.

"Lord Joanne Vine, it seems that you lack the capacity to listen to instructions given by your superiors…"

When she heard the voice, her expression suddenly turned pale. She was too angry to think and just wanted to teach this despicable man who provoked her. She did not expect that another lord is present at this time.

"This young man is important to the plans of the high lord. I hope you can stay your hand."

After she was stopped, Joanne Vine glared as Shin Jiao and left. The lord who stopped her showed an awkward smile on his face.

"Young man, you should prepare. We will leave immediately."

Shin Jiao just nodded his head and left the hallway.

When he got to the blacksmith workshop, there are still many people inside. He left some instructions to Hans Jung and the other employees and went inside the vault. With a wave of his hands, the vault was emptied and then another set of items were placed inside.

After doing that, he went to the underground facility. He also left some instructions for Alea Zin before he takes his leave.

After Shin Jiao left the shop, he directly went to the rendezvous place where the other array master and soldiers are meeting. As he arrives there are many people already on the large ground.

As someone who only has the power level of 74 spheres, Shin Jiao's presence is very striking to those on the ground. The soldiers look at him with curious and some are with disdainful eyes.

One of the soldiers approached Shin Jiao.

"Hey, little brother… this is the main assault team. You should not be in this place." The soldier said in a calm manner.

Because of his action, Shin Jiao felt favorable to the guy. So he smiled back.

"I am part of the array expert team that would be making the small disruption hole on the enemy's entrapment barrier array." He said with a smile.

The soldier wearing gold armor showed a surprised look on his face.

But before he could say anything, a commotion within the crowd suddenly grabs their attention. At this time, a group walks towards the two.. When Shin Jiao saw the leader of this group, he suddenly frowns.
