As night falls, a crescent moon hangs diagonally in the sky. Because the Jade Kun Palace is built on a high peak, the crescent moon and stars hang low from the top, as if they are within reach.
A few wisps of floating clouds make the numerous palaces of Yukun Palace look even more dreamlike. Looking from the bottom up, most of the hundreds of palaces stacked on top of each other have their lights turned off and silent. A melee during the day had already consumed all the energy of the various sects, and they went to bed early.
But in a palace on the top floor, there was a faint light shining. It's just that it's not very obvious against the backdrop of stars. This is the resting place prepared by Yukun Palace for the disciples of Wujixu Sect.
Through the window, I saw Master Tongxuan sitting firmly in the top position. On both sides were Zhen Lingzi, the master of Wulong Temple, Wanli Qingtian, the master of Guiyun Villa, and Yun Jingtian, the master of Yunhai City.
Master Tongxuan glanced at the three of them and said: "You three, spare your Qingmeng. Xingye called you all to me. Tongxuan is extremely sorry."
Yun Jingtian was the first to say: "What did Master Xu say? Even though the night is deep, Jingtian hasn't rested yet. Knowing that Master Xu has something to invite, naturally he didn't dare to neglect it."
Yun Jingtian is not sleepy, but it does not mean that Wanli Qingtian is still energetic. After stretching, he sat down and asked: "Master Tongxuanxu, I wonder if you have summoned us, is there anything urgent to discuss?"
"Yes." Master Tongxuan nodded, then looked out the window, and then asked: "During the day, after Qinglian arranged for me and other factions, she spent some time alone with Mu Jingyu. I don't know. Do you all know about this?"
Zhen Lingzi looked at the two of them and said: "Namu Jingyu got Chiyou's magic axe. Although he found some excuses to let Qinglian headmaster not pursue it for the time being. But everyone with a discerning eye knows that there must be a hidden secret, Qinglian How could the headmaster not know this? I guess Mu Jingyu was talking about this when he was alone with him."
"It's just as I thought." Headmaster Qinglian said worriedly: "Mu Jingyu was pregnant with ancient artifacts, and now he has Chiyou's magic axe, but Qinglian doesn't intend to pursue it. What's the secret behind this? What if we I can’t figure it out, so I always feel uneasy.”
Yun Jingtian said: "Master Xu, are you worried that Mu Jingyu will become bigger in the future and pose a threat to your old status?"
Master Tongxuan said: "At first, I didn't take Mu Jingyu seriously. It's just that during this period of time, his cultivation has improved rapidly, and there are many casual cultivators and Bi Yun's people supporting him. Moreover, As far as I know, when he and the two Dharma Kings went to Lingjue Temple to help, Liao Wu once gave him a Sect-Suppressing Immortal Treasure to increase his strength again. Now he has obtained the Chi You Demon Axe. If he cannot be suppressed , it will definitely become a problem in the future!”
Wan Li Qingtian said: "Master Xu, what do you mean...are you worried that the various factions led by Lingjue Temple and Yukun Palace will side with Mu Jingyu?"
Master Tongxuan said in a deep voice: "Based on the current situation, I'm afraid they are on Mu Jingyu's side. That's why I called the three of them here to think about why Qinglian agreed to let Mu Jingyu take the With Chi You's magic axe, what's the secret behind it, and will it pose a threat to us?"
"What's there to guess?" Wan Li Qingtian said: "It's just that Chi You's magic ax temporarily occupied Mu Jingyu's body and refused to come out. What can Qinglian do? Or, Mu Jingyu can use Chi You's magic ax to The power can suppress the Jiuli tribe."
"I have already thought about the two situations you mentioned. It's just that what worries me is..."
Before Master Tongxuan finished speaking, Yun Jingtian continued: "Master Xu, are you worried that the other factions and people from Mu Jingyu's side have seen that we colluded with the Jiuli tribe in Jiuhua Mountain? ? Then while we are still in Jade Kun Palace and have not left, are you planning to unite to surround and kill us? "
"The people who know me are none other than the head of the Yun family." Master Tongxuan said worriedly: "In the battle on Jiuhua Mountain, only our four factions did not suffer much losses. Regardless of whether we reach an agreement with the Jiuli tribe, they will rise up. Suspicious. Now, we are in the Jade Kun Palace. Not only are we not close to each other, but we are also surrounded by masters such as Bi Yan, Zhu Yan, and Qi Jue Scholars. If they have intentions, can you and I still escape?"
Master Tongxuan's analysis made Yun Jingtian and Wanli Qingtian worried. Zhen Lingzi, on the other hand, was noncommittal: "The Xu Lord must be too careful. With the strength of our four factions, even if we face their siege, we are still capable of fighting! In addition, the Jiuli tribe and Bei Pluto are surrounding us, Forgive them for having such a heart, but not having the courage!"
"That's why I'm too worried about Mu Jingyu getting the Chi You Demon Axe." Master Tongxuan said in a deep voice: "If we want to compare our strength with other factions, we do have the ability to fight. But. Have you forgotten those men in black? Even Lian Wu and Bei Pluto were no match for them, but they were easily defeated by Chi You's magic ax possessing Mu Jingyu's body. Who among you and me has the ability to resist? Woolen cloth?"
Yes, Yun Jingtian and the other three have heard more or less about what happened at the altar. If Mu Jingyu can really use Chi You at will, no one in the world can be his enemy.
However, the conversation between the two was extremely secretive and no one else could know. Speaking of Mu Jingyu holding Chi You's magic axe, the most likely thing to deal with first is to enter the Netherworld Ghost State, destroy Chi You's body, and rescue the trapped leaders of various factions.
But just like this, the upper nine sects and the lower nine sects will definitely lose their strength. It has long been known to everyone that Master Tongxuan covets the position of leader of the righteous path. In addition, Mu Jingyu has long been grudged against Wujixu and the Yun family because of Mo Yunshen's affairs. It is not impossible to take advantage of the opportunity to eliminate the four Wujixu sects first.
Yun Jingtian thought for a while and then said: "Xu Lord is too worried. Even if Mu Jingyu has this intention, the other factions will not agree."
Zhen Lingzi echoed: "Now, their biggest enemy is still the Jiuli tribe! Mu Jingyu dares to leave the Jiuli tribe alone and deal with our four factions first? Don't forget, the strength of the Jiuli tribe has not been affected. What a loss. If we fight here... hum, how can we still have the strength to enter the Netherworld Ghost State and rescue the leaders and disciples of various factions? "
"Depending on the current situation, they really don't dare. However, do you know that after Mu Jingyu and Qinglian parted ways, they secretly met with other factions, as well as Bi Yunyang, Qi Jue Scholar and others? Let's talk about it. A step-by-step plan, why didn’t we find you and my four factions? What on earth are they plotting?"
"Is this really happening?" Yun Jingtian and the others were shocked. If Master Tongxuan hadn't mentioned it today, they would have been kept in the dark.
Yun Jingtian analyzed: "Void Lord, don't be anxious. In my opinion, maybe Mu Jingyu is worried that we will not agree to attack the Netherworld Ghost State at this time. How many factions should we go to first to communicate with each other?"
Zhen Lingzi said: "I think this possibility is the greatest. However, until the results are obtained, everything is just conjecture. We have to take more precautions."
"After all, besides this reason, is there any other possibility?" From the beginning to the end, Wan Li Qingtian did not believe that Mu Jingyu dared to unite various factions to surround them: "We only have to consider whether to agree to them That’s all.”
Right now, that's the most likely outcome. The three of them looked at Master Tongxuan together, waiting for his decision.
The three of them thought that Master Tongxuan would seek their opinions before making a decision. However, without thinking, he said without thinking: "If Mu Jingyu dares to really force me and the other four factions to attack the Netherworld Ghost together, Zhou, I, Tongxuan, firmly disagree."
Before Yun Jingtian and Zhen Lingzi could speak, Wanli Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief: "Xu Lord is right. Anyway, those who were kidnapped were the leading disciples of their sects. Our four sects did not suffer much." There is no need to take risks for them."
Zhen Lingzi, who had reacted, had the same thought, and immediately echoed: "When we agreed to the various factions to help Yukun Palace, we just thought that we could kill the Jiuli tribe and Bei Pluto in one fell swoop. Now they have escaped, and They haven’t suffered much losses. If they attack rashly, God knows what traps they will lay in Netherworld Ghost State. I, Wuzhuangguan, think the same as Master Wanli, we don’t want to go into this muddy water.”
After the two of them finished speaking, they looked at Yun Jingtian together, waiting for his decision.
"What, Master Yun has a different opinion? If you think our idea is wrong, just say it." Master Tongxuan saw that Yun Jingtian seemed to have something to say and couldn't help but ask.
Among the four factions, his Yun family is the weakest. Logically speaking, he, Yun Jingtian, has the least say, and everything is decided by the three of them. However, although Yun Jingtian's cultivation level is not as good as those of the three, his thoughts and concerns are much more profound.
"Jingtian's cultivation is shallow and his knowledge is far inferior to the three of them. He shouldn't have any opinions on this matter. But I think... the three leaders have a good idea. Now that the Jiuli tribe and Bei Pluto's power are intact, , there will definitely be casualties in a hasty attack. When the time comes, no matter which side has the strength left, or both sides are injured, we can either help, or sit back and watch the fight, and let both sides consume themselves. It is always good."
Yun Jingtian first complimented the three of them, and then continued: "But, have you ever thought about it, if we don't go with you, not only will several factions be dissatisfied and secretly guarded, but we will also be unable to grasp the situation in time. Our future decisions will be of no use."
"On the contrary, it is better to follow the tide and fight against the autumn wind. As for whether we can contribute or not, it is not up to us. At that time, whether both sides suffer, or one party destroys the other, we can still formulate a countermeasure in time."
Master Tongxuan said: "Master Yun really has far-reaching thoughts. But I'm worried that if we really get to the Netherworld Ghost State, everything will become uncontrollable!"
"It's more than just out of control!" Wan Li Qingtian said loudly: "You and I both know the strength of the Jiuli tribe. Even if Mu Jingyu has Chi You's magic ax in his hand, he may not be able to protect the various factions. If it is true, When they start fighting, how can we predict who will live and who will die? Therefore, the best strategy is for us to hide far away."
Yun Jingtian felt helpless towards Wanli Qingtian. This man looked old, but in fact he was too cautious and cautious. He only wanted to preserve himself and had no sense of adventure.
However, due to his status, he did not dare to refute face to face. He could only say in a tactful tone: "Master Wanli's concerns are timely. It's just that I got news from other places. King Bei Ping didn't want the Jiuli tribe to destroy the righteous sects. It's just that We maintain a stated alliance with them. Once we attack in large numbers, Yaoming Palace will definitely not give us full assistance. At that time, we only need to conserve our strength first, wait until they are almost done fighting, and then use thunder to sweep them over. Not only can we Isn’t it a matter of killing two birds with one stone to destroy the Jiuli tribe and still establish a reputation in the righteous way?”
Master Tongxuan didn't care about Yun Jingtian's words. Instead, he paid attention to Bei Ping Wang's thoughts and asked curiously: "Master Yun, where did you get the news? Is it reliable? Bei Ping Wang is really... unwilling to help with all his strength. Jiuli tribe?"
"It's absolutely true!" Yun Jingtian said with certainty: "Jingtian dares to guarantee it with the head on his neck!"
Master Tongxuan nodded slightly. Although Yun Jingtian did not want to tell the source of the news, he could still guess that it should have been told to him by the spirit subdued by the Yun family in Wujixuwai more than ten years ago.
"If that's the case, you can give it a try. But we can discuss how to do it so that the factions won't be suspicious, and we can still act according to your plan during the melee."
"Jingtian has thought about it a long time ago." Yun Jingtian smiled confidently. Such whispers not only made Master Tongxuan extremely satisfied, but also Zhen Lingzi and Wanli Qingtian put aside their worries. , fully supported.
