The night is deep.
The cold moon shines brightly.
Under the moon, Li Zi stood quietly in the inner courtyard at night, with his back to the bright moon, and his face could not be seen clearly. It was like an abyss in the dark night, and he could not see anything.
As the old saying goes, when you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring into you.
Li Ziye, as the helmsman of the Li family, is one of the top chess players in the world, staring at all sides.
It is undeniable that the Li family is very strong, and the reason is that Li Ziye is very strong.
"Li Ziye!"
At night, Lu Wentian appeared, half of his white clothes stained with blood, and the smell of blood was so pungent.
"Senior is injured?"
After a salute, Li Ziye straightened up, looked at the white-robed swordsman in front of him, and asked in surprise.
"Is there an informant from your Li family in the Yunhai Immortal Sect?"
Lu Wentian stared at the legitimate son of the Li family in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Otherwise, if something happened to the Yunhai Immortal Sect, why did you receive the news so quickly?"
"Senior is joking."
Li Ziye calmed down and said calmly, "The Yunhai Immortal Sect has always been strict in recruiting disciples. The Li family is far away in the Central Plains. It is not easy to insert spies among the sects in the East China Sea. Besides, such a big thing has happened in the Yunhai Immortal Sect, so there must be no need for spies. , as long as you are not blind or deaf, you can all know. As for why the younger generation can receive the news so quickly, there is actually nothing to explain. The Li family over there will report the matter on the East China Sea regularly, and the contact method is manpower or carrier pigeons. Of course, the Xinying also has one, but it will only be used in emergencies."
At this point, Li Ziye paused slightly and pointedly reminded, "The Li family over there decided that there was no need to use a letter eagle to convey the matter regarding the Yunhai Immortal Sect. Therefore, when I got the news, Biga actually Urgent information will be many days late. Senior Sword Immortal, I'm sorry, Yunhai Xianmen and the Li family are not allies. The Li family over there will only treat what happened at Yunhai Xianmen as ordinary information. I'm sorry for being a little slow. !”
Lu Wentian's expression became more and more serious after hearing the explanation given by the legitimate son of the Li family in front of him.
According to this boy's words, it is entirely possible for the royal family's spies to send the spies to the Great Shang Capital in the shortest possible time after receiving the information about what happened to the Yunhai Immortal Sect.
The situation mentioned by Shang Huang is all based on the premise that the information is transmitted at normal speed.
Old fox!
"How is the Yunhai Immortal Sect doing now?" After a brief thought, Lu Wentian came back to his senses and asked in a deep voice.
"The latest information is that after the two peerless experts defeated the seven peak masters, a monster with black energy suddenly crawled out from the ground in the Immortal Sect. In the end, the two sides joined forces to suppress the monster. This incident , many disciples of Yunhai Xianmen have witnessed it with their own eyes."
Li Ziye looked at the person in front of him and said truthfully, "If this junior guessed correctly, the monster is the legendary Netherland, the same as the monster that appeared in the mutated land of Nanling."
When Lu Wentian heard this, his expression completely darkened.
"To be honest, Senior Sword Immortal, my Li family's spies found out about this from the disciples of your sect."
Li Ziye looked at the person in front of him and continued, "When it comes to the underworld, your sect has done a pretty good job of keeping it secret. My Li family has spent a lot of effort to find out about this matter. Therefore, the information returned The time is also a little later.”
"What's the name of the disciple who revealed the news?" Lu Wentian asked in a deep voice.
"You can't say this is against the rules."
Li Ziye said sternly, "I am just an insignificant disciple. It is not a heinous mistake to be loose-mouthed. My Li family promised not to betray him and we will definitely do it. This is the foundation of our Li family. I hope senior can forgive me."
"You are honest."
Lu Wentian sneered, but did not ask further questions.
Although that disciple was hateful, he admired the Li family's behavior.
Stabbing in the back is the most shameful thing.
At this moment, in a room not far away, Taotao was checking the account book and listening to the conversation outside, and couldn't help but smile.
What is the most amazing thing about the young master?
sincere!
Verbal behavior subtly dispels the other party's wariness.
The young master once said that direct lies are the most stupid.
The most brilliant lie is to use facts and sincerity to break the other person's heart, and then use fragmentary and useless truths to weave them into lies that you want the other party to believe.
She didn't quite understand what it meant specifically, nor how to use it, but anyway, the young master's ability to deal with people was indeed unrivaled.
Perhaps, when someone can truly understand what the young master's words mean and apply what he has learned, the successor of the young master will truly appear.
In the room on the other side, Holy Master Yunying heard the conversation between the two people outside the courtyard and was equally astonished.
The boy didn't hide the matter of Yunhai Xianmen from her, but she knew about it.
However, although most of what this kid said was true, why did it sound so weird after he said it.
It is obvious that the Li family is the mastermind behind the scenes, but now the Dashang royal family is no longer human inside and outside. In fact, the white-clothed swordsman would rather believe in the Li family than the Dashang royal family.
"Senior Sword Immortal, if you are worried about the situation of the sect, you can go back and take a look, but"
In the courtyard, Li Ziye looked at the person in front of him and said something. He suddenly changed his tone and said seriously, "The capital of Dashang is very far away from the Yunhai Immortal Sect. Even if something happens to the sect, the seniors will have already rushed back. If nothing can be done, it is better to stay in the capital. If my Li family gets any information, I can tell the seniors as soon as possible. In this way, the seniors can know what is happening in the sect faster. Moreover, if we stay in the capital, if there is any information at the palace, Senior Sword Immortal can also get any information as soon as possible, compare the situations on both sides, and know the truth at a glance."
"Boy, what's your plot?"
Lu Wentian heard what the former said and asked in a deep voice, "Don't you resent me for attacking you before? Why do you want to help me?"
"It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies."
Li Ziye said with a sincere expression, "Back then, my master took me to snatch the colorful lotus heart from the Yunhai Immortal Sect. It was because we were wrong. There is nothing wrong with seniors taking action against me. To be selfish, who wouldn't want a treasure like a divine object? Take it as our own, but this does not mean that my Li family wants to offend a terrifying human sword immortal. If we can use some information that is insignificant to my Li family, I can get the senior sword immortal to me. It’s worth it to reduce some of the hostility.”
"As expected of a legitimate son from a merchant family, he understands the word profit thoroughly."
Lu Wentian sneered and said, "But don't think that just because you helped me with this matter, I will give up on taking back the colorful lotus heart."
"Don't dare to hope."
Li Ziye said softly, "I just hope that when senior gets the chance to attack, he will not be blind with his sword. At least, he can spare my life."
"Can."
Lu Wentian did not refuse and nodded in response, "As long as you tell the truth about the Yunhai Immortal Sect, I can guarantee you that from now on, no matter whether I can get back the colorful lotus heart or not, I will spare your life!"
"Thank you, senior."
When Li Ziye heard the promise of the person in front of him, he bowed his hands in respect again and said, "There is one more thing that is very important. I hope that the seniors can also agree."
"What's the matter?" Lu Wentian asked puzzledly.
"Things about the underworld."
Li Ziye raised his head and said with blazing eyes, "Since Yunhai Xianmen can seal the underworld, it means that Yunhai Xianmen has been prepared for this. If I am not wrong, these sealing methods are left by the ancestors of the noble sect. Junior Bucai, I have been looking for ways to seal or kill the Netherworld to solve the disaster of the Netherland. In addition, when Prince Wen and I went to the far north not long ago, we encountered a monster similar to the Netherland, which also has the power of immortality. In order to study how to deal with it, I cut off his head and brought it back."
As he spoke, Li Ziye walked to the stone table aside and opened the wooden box on it, revealing a ferocious and mutilated head.
The moment Lu Wentian saw Ye Gui's head, his expression was shocked.
Are there night ghosts in the far north?
Isn't it just the one under the mass grave in the east of the city?
In front of the stone table, Li Ziye noticed the expression of the swordsman in white, and his eyes flashed with concentration.
There is something hidden.
Lu Wentian didn't seem to know that there were night ghosts in the far north.
