Mu Jingyu carefully moved his chair and took a few steps back, worried that Ba Zheng would suddenly hurt someone. But in an instant, I felt that I was a little worried for nothing. Since Ba Zheng said it at this moment, he should have given up his previous thoughts. Otherwise, he would not have rushed to tell the news that he had found out.
"Senior, why have you changed your mind now and want to help this junior with all your strength? It can't be because you are interested in this junior's qualifications and can help Bi Yun defeat the King of the North Pluto and regain control of the Demon Hades Palace."
Mu Jingyu meant it as a joke, but Ba Zheng nodded solemnly, then looked at him and said, "Young Mu Mu guessed it right, I've taken a fancy to your current strength! Of course, there's also your character. !”
Ba Zheng did not hide anything, but openly admitted: "I originally thought that you would be trapped on the jade flute platform this time, and I was afraid it would be difficult to escape. At first, I was just taking care of the little princess, fearing that she would blame me in the future. I decided to take action at the last moment and reported the news to the Jin clan leader. But later, I found that not only the little princess was extremely concerned about your safety and did not hesitate to come to rescue you personally. Even the two Dharma kings and the Qijue scholar also came together. In addition to the fact that you were killed today, it is also Because you helped the little princess get the elixir. Whether it was to help the little princess to repay your kindness, or to take the opportunity to win over you, in order to prevent the Demon Hades Palace from falling into the hands of North Pluto in the future, I have to rescue you. OK!"
In fact, Ba Zheng only mentioned two of the reasons, but the real reasons were hidden deep in his heart. It turns out that he was not really on Bi Yun's side at first and tried his best to help her regain the Demon Underworld Palace. Instead, they remained neutral and attached themselves to whichever side was more powerful. Not only can he ensure his own safety and not put himself in danger, but he can also maintain his position in the Demon Underworld Palace.
The reason why he betrayed Yaoming Palace and joined the Jiuli tribe was because he was ordered by Bei Pingwang to secretly inquire about information. But later, Ba Zheng quietly contacted Bi Yun and promised to help her deal with Bei Pluto. Backed by three forces, it has become a veritable three-sided internal response. No matter which party has the news, they can see Feng Shituo and make the decision that is most beneficial to them.
Only later, he discovered that North Pluto was actually persuaded by the high priest and decided to form an alliance with him! Forget about forming an alliance, but during this period of time, he gradually realized that Jiuli had great ambitions and actually wanted to annex the entire Kyushu, even the Yaoming Palace!
As one of the three elders of Yaoming Palace, Ba Zheng would certainly not tolerate such a thing happening. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to abandon Bei Pluto and help Bi Yun with all his strength. Only if she takes the position of Demon King of Demon Underworld Palace can she prevent the Demon Underworld Palace that Bi Luo and Bai Ze worked so hard to build from being destroyed!
Now that Ba Zheng admitted his purpose, Mu Jingyu felt relieved. If I were to consider it from his standpoint, I would probably think about Yaoming Palace as well.
Mu Jingyu stood up and saluted: "No matter what, I have to thank my senior for saving my life."
Ba Zheng waved his hand and said: "Okay, you don't need to thank me. As long as you can fully help the little princess regain the Demon Underworld Palace in the future, it will be considered a reward."
After seeing that both of them were no longer entangled in the matter, Jin Yingzi immediately changed the subject: "Senior, let's talk about business. You should tell us the information you have obtained first."
"Yes." Ba Zheng nodded and said: "As I said before, the high priest just wants to take the righteous disciples to an extremely cold place to help Chi You condense his body. At this moment, they will not be in danger, so we don't need to Too anxious. But...there is a difficult matter now, and there is no room for any delay."
Mu Jingyu asked curiously: "Oh? What on earth is more important than rescuing many righteous disciples and preventing Chi You from condensing into a physical body?"
Ba Zheng said seriously: "Mu Jingyu, let me ask you, do you think it is the disciples of each sect that are more important, or the cornerstone of each sect?"
Mu Jingyu blurted out: "Of course the cornerstone of each sect is important. Although these disciples are numerous in number, even if they all died in the extremely cold place, the foundation accumulated by each sect over thousands of years is still there, and in time they will naturally thrive again. Get up. If..."
At this point, Mu Jingyu suddenly opened his eyes wide and understood what Ba Zheng meant. He suddenly stood up and said: "Senior, what you mean is that the Jiuli tribe and Bei Ping Wang want to take advantage of the members of each sect to be captured by them. Come on, when the disciples in the sect are empty, are you going to uproot them?"
"Exactly!" Ba Zheng pointed to the chair, motioning for Mu Jingyu to sit down first, and then said: "I previously thought that the high priest's purpose was only to attend the disciples of various sects who came to participate in the Dao Discussion Conference. But later, I discovered The situation is completely wrong. First, the elders from various factions who came to support died here. News was also obtained from other places. After the elders retreated, Bei Pluto immediately joined the high priest and led the two elites to attack in the starry night. Went to Lingjue Temple. It is estimated that it will take at most one day to arrive. By then, without the elders and a group of seniors, how can Lingjue Temple be their opponent with only the remaining disciples? From what I got Judging from the news, once they destroy Lingjue Temple, they will take action against the other eight sects."
This situation was indeed urgent. Mu Jingyu could still sit safely on the chair, got up, and kept pacing, thinking about countermeasures. But he immediately stopped and expressed a doubt in his mind: "Senior, it stands to reason that only Brother Qin and I and the nine sect leaders know about the elders coming to support each other. Outsiders cannot get the news in advance. ! But judging from the current situation, the high priest and Bei Pluto should have known about it for a long time. Can you tell me, did they plan all this in advance, or was it because they happened to see the elders from various factions who came to support? , you suddenly want to eradicate the nine sects?"
Although Mu Jingyu's tone was questioning, he had a decision in his heart. Ever since he discovered that the elders of each faction had been intercepted, he felt that all this was a plan arranged by the Jiuli tribe in advance. Otherwise, how could they have enough manpower to intercept? Moreover, can you kill them all in Jiuhua Mountain?
Originally, Mu Jingyu thought that he was overthinking everything. But when he learned that the high priest and Bei Pluto led their people to besiege Lingjue Temple without stopping, he strengthened his previous suspicion.
Ba Zheng said: "On the way here, I listened to Chief Jin briefly describe what happened. Now it seems that you have fallen into the high priest's scheme again and summoned the elders of all factions to Jiuhua, so that you can come here Caught them all in one fell swoop.”
"I think so too." Mu Jingyu frowned and said, "However, only a few of us know about the decision to summon seniors from various factions to help out. Brother Qin and I are definitely not spies of the Jiuli tribe. Then the remaining Jiuli tribe A leader..."
Speaking of this, Mu Jingyu wanted to doubt Master Tongxuan. After all, it was Master Tongxuan who insisted on summoning the elders of various factions to come up with a plan for the Jiuli tribe. But later, it was discovered that the mysterious people who attacked Dinanxun seemed to be closely related to Master Wuming.
However, this suspicion dissipated a lot after seeing that a large number of people from Wujixu and the Emei Sect died among them. Is it possible that the two of them would be so crazy that they would sacrifice their disciples in order to cooperate with the Jiuli tribe?
As the two masters of the same sect, they would not fail to realize that once the strength of the two factions is greatly reduced, the Jiuli tribe will take the opportunity to kill them. The information brought by Ba Zheng also confirmed this.
"We can't draw a conclusion on this matter yet, lest we fall into the high priest's scheme again." Ba Zheng reminded: "The most important thing at the moment is to find a way to notify Elder Wu and the people who escaped, and ask them to gather people to prevent the war. Rescue Lingjue Temple."
Jin Yingzi said: "Senior, don't worry. Last night, Senior Taier and Nangong Jianxian had already gone to check on the safety of Lord Lei Bao and others. They will probably be back soon."
"No, it will be too late when they come back." Mu Jingyu couldn't wait a moment and walked quickly to the door and said: "Sister Jin, please settle down with Senior Ba Zheng first, and then give Senior Qi Jue and Brother Qin a message . I will go find Master Taier and the others right now, and tell Lord Leibao and the others about this situation first."
Mu Jingyu opened the door as he spoke, and saw Nangong Jingqiu pushing the door open. Master Taier who followed behind said: "Little friend Mu, you are so busy going to find us, but what's the matter?" It’s urgent.”
Seeing that the two of them were back, Mu Jingyu quickly invited them into the room and said: "The two seniors came just in time. Senior Ba Zheng just brought back a message. It was said that the high priest and Bei Pluto personally led the crowd to besiege the spirit. It’s time to sleep in the temple.”
"What!" Master Taier had just come back when he heard the news. He could hardly stand still and asked anxiously: "Elder Ba Zheng, are you telling the truth?"
"Absolutely true!"
Master Tai Er said: "This is really troublesome, this is really troublesome."
Mu Jingyu asked: "Senior, don't panic. It's still too late for them to rush over and tell the Lord of Thunder Castle the news. The high priest and Bei Pluto rushed to Lingjue Temple and there is still one day. As long as he can send the news back in advance Lingjue Temple, let them prepare early. If we find a way to contact Elder Wu and rush back, they should be able to resist."
Nangong Jingqiu shook her head and said: "It's too late. The news that Zhenren and I just found out is that Elder Liaowu had already received Lei Changqing and others last night. Because some of them were injured, he protected them and returned to Lei. We have gone to the palace, and we have probably left the realm of the Mountains and Lost States long ago. Even if we rush there now and tell Elder Wu the news, there is no way we can return to Lingjue Temple before the Jiuli Tribe and Bei Pluto. .”
Last night, after Master Taier and Nangong Jingqiu left, they did not find Lei Changqing and others. Instead, they found their whereabouts through the Tianji Pavilion scattered all over the place.
It turned out that Master Tongxuan led Wuzhuang Temple, Guiyun Villa and the Yun Family of Yunhai City not to separate, but to go back to Wujixu together. It must be because Wuzhuang Temple and Guiyun Villa are a little far apart, and they wanted to You must first go to Wujixu to practice some cultivation.
Shortly after Lei Changqing, Zhou Wenyi and others separated from them, they met Elder Liuwu who had escaped from Bei Pluto. After learning what happened on the Yuxiao Stage and that the disciples of each sect had been escorted to Netherworld Ghost State where they were temporarily out of danger, Elder Liao Wu decided to temporarily escort them back to Lei Gong Castle. After gathering all the righteous disciples, they went to the Netherworld Ghost State together to rescue the disciples of each sect.
Taier Zhenren was afraid that the information he got was inaccurate, so he ordered people to find out their whereabouts one after another. After learning that they were indeed heading towards Leigong Castle, they returned here with Nangong Jingqiu, which naturally took a little time.
"You have to go even if you don't have time! You can't just sit here and do nothing." Mu Jingyu was worried, not only worried about the righteous disciples, but also worried about Guo Qingshan's injury. After all, only by obtaining the genius treasure from Chi You's body can it be possible to cure Guo Qingshan's injuries.
More importantly, he deeply understood that once all the righteous sects were destroyed by the Jiuli tribe and Bei Pluto, there would really be no force in Jiuzhou that could compete with them! When that time comes, the high priest and North Pluto who have their hands free will not let them go!
"Mu Jingyu, calm down!" Ba Zheng said in a deep voice: "Even if we have to inform them, it will be just a few of us. Based on your cultivation, you will probably arrive at Leigong Castle by the time you catch up with them."
Master Taier nodded and said: "Elder Ba Zheng is right. From what I see, it is better to wait for the two Dharma Kings to come back and discuss it in the long run."
Mu Jingyu knew that Ba Zheng was right, so he had no choice but to suppress his anxiety and kept looking outside the door: "It's been a whole night, why haven't seniors Bi An and Zhu Yan come back yet? "
