The Ghost Valley Sage smiled and looked at Darryl. He said, “When I observed the area, I noticed the magma vent
under the ground. I could sense its volatility, and I think it will erupt to form a volcano in less than 20 years.”
The Ghost Valley Sage sounded highly confident as he continued to say, “Well, it’s 20 years if there is no external
influence. However, if there is a battle aboveground, the explosion of aura from the soldiers would accelerate the
magma’s movement. In that case, it would erupt much earlier…”
Everyone in the hall broke into an uproar as they stared admiringly at Ghost Valley Sage. They were amazed and
shocked that the Ghost Valley Sage could sense the magma underground by a mere glance at the wilderness.
How amazing! Ghost Valley Sage was worthy of his title as the most phenomenal person of all time.
Darryl admired the Ghost Valley Sage. The man was so amazing that he could guess the situation underground
accurately by observing the surface. That was the highest state of Feng Shui art.
Darryl also studied Feng Shui, but his knowledge was inferior to the Ghost Valley Sage.
Darryl finally understood the Ghost Valley Sage’s plan.
The South Cloud Army took the Dousing Pill in advance so that they could deal with the eruption. The North Moana
Army, who knew nothing about it, would fluster when the volcano erupted. The catastrophe might cause countless

Darryl chuckled.
He was extremely excited as he imagined the scene in his head. At the same time, he admired the Ghost Valley
Sage even more.
The Ghost Valley Sage was also worthy of his title as the best military strategist in the past. The South Cloud World
was in a blind alley. Everyone had no idea what to do next, but the Ghost Valley Sage seemed to have found an
easy way out for them.
He was a god-like figure, indeed.
“Young Man!”
Ghost Valley Sage smiled as he looked at Darryl. Then, he said earnestly, “In the future, you must be flexible when
you lead an army to battle. You must not fight the opponent with strength and knowledge. Sometimes, you have to
take advantage of the right time and place to do something. Sometimes, that works best.”
“I’ll remember your teaching and advice,” Darryl responded respectfully.
The Empress and the hundreds of civil and military officials also reacted positively. They praised the Ghost Valley
Sage for his intelligence.
“How amazing is that! He figured out how to use the underground magma to deal with the North Moana Army…”
“Yes, no matter how powerful Yang Jian is, his few hundred thousand North Moana Army would not be able to
handle the hot magma…”
“It is as expected of the Ghost Valley Sage…”
Everyone’s admiration continued to pour, but the Ghost Valley Sage did not seem to have heard it. He had heard
even more compliments when he used to travel the world and mentor his disciples.
“Alright!”
Ghost Valley Sage turned to Darryl and said, “I’ve given you the solution. As for whether you can defeat the North
Moana Army or not, it all depends on your ability.”
Darryl knew that the Ghost Valley Sage wanted to leave after he said that. So he scratched his head and said
embarrassingly, “Ghost Valley Sage, can I ask for a favor? Can you only leave after we have finished this battle?”
Even though they had a great chance of winning with the Ghost Valley Sage’s plan, the situation on the battlefield
would always change rapidly. It would be chaotic if things did not develop as they expected.
Therefore, the Ghost Valley Sage must stay until the end of the battle. After all, Darryl would be more confident if a
god-like figure was by his side.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf the plan went smoothly and the South Cloud World won the battle, then Yang Jian would not dare act rashly when
he saw the god-like figure, the Ghost Valley Sage, beside Darryl.
The Ghost Valley Sage was a phenomenal person, indeed. He could read Darryl’s mind at a glance; he said, “You
want me to stay and unnerve the enemies, right?”
“Hey—”
Darryl felt embarrassed that the Ghost Valley Sage managed to see through his intention so easily. Nevertheless, he
immediately pleaded with the man. “Please help us. I do this because I want to end the war as soon as possible and
let the people continue with their happy lives.
The Ghost Valley Sage nodded after hearing Darryl’s explanation. “Well, I agree. Your request is not too bad.”
Darryl chuckled.
He was delighted that the Ghost Valley Sage had agreed to his request. He ordered the eunuch next to him. “Quick!
Take the Ghost Valley Sage to a comfortable place to rest. Take good care of him.”
Darryl had to make a lot of preparation, and the North Moana Army had not fired an attack at the Royal City. So it
was inappropriate for Ghost Valley Sage to stay in the hall.
A eunuch walked forward with a humble attitude. Then, he led the Ghost Valley Sage to another place to rest.
