After finally deceiving Mu Jingyu, Elder Gu Li relaxed a lot. Just as he was about to return to the clan with Protector Hefeng, he saw Zhao Tiande coming in a hurry.
Elder Gu Li was greatly surprised because when he came to notify Han Yao to prevent Mu Jingyu from coming to explore the old temple site, he had already asked Zhao Tiande to return to Xihan Yuanzhou on his own. Why was he back now?
"Let's go up and have a look." Elder Gu Li called to Protector Feng and quickly met Zhao Tiande. Without waiting for him to speak, he immediately pulled him to find a remote place to talk. After all, the people around here are all members of Jin Yingzi's side. If they were discovered by him, wouldn't it increase their suspicion even more.
After staying away from the old temple site, Elder Gu Li found a crevice in the ice field and jumped in. After making sure that no one was following him, he said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhao, didn't I ask you to go back? Why did you come to me again? Could it be that, again? Did something happen?"
"Yes." At this moment, Zhao Tiande was still wearing a human-skin mask and the costumes of the Jiuli tribe. It was obvious that he was not far away from the Far North and had returned in a hurry because of something.
"Elder Gu Li, before I left the Far North, I saw Yun Qiubai and Han Songqing from the Yun family waiting on the road that I must pass. As soon as I saw me, please ask me to inform you, Lao Yiyi, that I have something important to tell you."
"Head of the Han family and Yun Qiubai are here?" Elder Gu Li was slightly startled and asked in confusion: "What are they doing in the far north now? Can you tell me clearly why they want to discuss with me? ?”
Zhao Tiande shook his head and said: "I don't know about this! It's just that the two of them are not too anxious, so it must be that nothing big happened."
"If nothing important happened, would they come to me in person?" Elder Gu Li shook his head, obviously not believing it: "Where are the two of them now?"
Zhao Tiande said: "I asked them to find a secluded place to wait thirty miles to the east. As soon as you see the elders, I will take you to meet them immediately."
"Brother Zhao, please lead the way." Elder Guli was worried that the situation was not as Zhao Tiande said, so he dared not waste a moment and walked out of the crack in the ice field first. After confirming that there was no one around, Zhao Tiande led the way to meet Han Songqing. , Yun Qiubai met.
Following the direction pointed by Zhao Tiande, after walking for more than thirty miles, he saw Han Songqing and Yun Qiubai hiding in a remote crevice under the ice.
When they saw the three elders of Gu Li, they just wanted to come out to greet them, but Elder Gu Li waved his hand and motioned for them to follow him immediately and leave here first.
Although they are far away from the scope of the temple, Elder Gu Li is still worried that the far north is controlled by Jin Yingzi's men after all. There is an endless stream of clansmen patrolling around. If someone sees them, there is no way to find an excuse to get around.
Han Songqing and the two men immediately understood, lowered their bodies, followed Elder Gu Li, and continued to rush eastward.
Finally, after walking nearly a hundred miles, we saw a slightly raised boulder covered with white snow in the distance.
Elder Gu Li flew forward and placed his hand on a small piece of gravel next to the boulder. As he twisted his wrist, a small door for only one person to bend down was revealed from the other side of the boulder.
"Guys, come in with me quickly." Elder Gu Li stepped aside and waited for everyone to enter. After confirming that no one was following him, he finally stepped in and closed the stone door from the inside.
The stone house is not big, and the facilities inside are equally rudimentary, with only a wooden table and a few chairs. It seems that this is just a place where Elder Gu Li discusses matters with others, and he rarely lives here.
It turned out that since Han Yao escaped from the temple and got in touch with Elder Gu Li and Guardian Feng, he had found such a place nearby, and after simple processing, it was used as a place to discuss matters with Han Yao.
After all, the news that Han Yao is still alive cannot be known yet. And the old site of the temple is an excellent place for him to practice. Originally, if they had something to discuss, the old site of the temple would be the best place. But Elder Gu Li was worried that he and the wind guardian would inevitably be discovered as he kept coming in and out. This was the best place.
Everyone sat down, and Elder Gu Li couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Han, Brother Jingtian, if you two are not discussing outside, how can you sow discord between Mu Jingyu's side and the righteous factions? Why are you here looking for me?"
Yun Qiubai smiled and said: "Elder, don't worry, let me tell you the details slowly."
"Since reaching an agreement with Master Tongxuan, Patriarch Han originally wanted to massacre a few more small sects and divert everyone's attention from Wujixu to himself, so as to eliminate our suspicions. "
"Well, I remembered. Brother Han did say that after Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun were led to Wei Jiangshan by the Tiger King, you would massacre several small sects."
Elder Gu Li nodded and continued: "I originally thought that once the plan went as we had expected, Bi An and Zhu Yan would snatch the jade and silk, so as to take the opportunity to make Jin Yingzi unable to suppress the major tribes. , waiting for Master Tongxuan to lead various factions to come to help and completely sow the relationship between us and the righteous way. But things changed again, and we actually forgot about it."
According to their previous plan, when Han Yao printed the ancient totem of the Jiuli tribe on the jade silk, the two Dharma Kings would not give up and would definitely snatch it away.
According to Bi Yun's relationship with them, how could he just sit back and watch? When the time comes, when the two sides are in a stalemate or even fight, as long as Master Tongxuan can clear away his own suspicions and lead the righteous factions to come, the two sides can completely settle their grudges.
However, there were too many changes in the process. First, the Withered Bone Demon Lord came to intervene with a group of elites from the Demon Underworld Palace. Later, in Weijiang Mountain, although Han Yao finally completed his mission, Bi An and Zhu Yan took the opportunity to memorize the Eternal Desolation Swallowing Art and erased all the techniques in it. Ba Xie followed quietly and was eventually killed by the man in black.
Of course, everyone on Mu Jingyu's side didn't know why Ba Xie entered Wei Jiangshan, but Elder Gu Li knew it all. After all, after meeting Han Yao, he learned what happened.
But why did Ba Xie not notify Mu Jingyu in advance and just stopped Han Yao alone? Why did the man in black appear later? Not only did he not embarrass Han Yao and Su Ci, but after killing Ba Xie, Han Yao did not say anything clearly about leaving the jade silk with him.
Of course, he had his own purpose in doing so. Maybe the identity of the animal-faced old man in black is too shocking? Whether he had other plans and failed to tell the truth was beyond the reach of Elder Gu Li.
Protector Feng asked: "Master Han, Brother Qiubai, what happened in the meantime? Why didn't you ask Master Tongxuan to bring the various sects to Weijiang Mountain as agreed?"
"That's it." Han Songqing sorted out his thoughts and said, "Originally, things did go according to our plan. We first massacred two small sects and drew the attention of all the righteous sects away from Wujixu. Come over. Master Tongxuan also took the opportunity to kill several disciples of my Han family, so that all doubts about him will be eliminated."
Han Songqing briefly told the story of the two people's secret cooperation, and there was no trace of heartache or guilt about the Han family disciple being abandoned by him. Obviously, for his own purposes, he no longer cares about the life or death of his subordinates.
Elder Gu Li asked: "In this case, the righteous factions must believe that what happened at Shujian Villa was not caused by Wujixu. Why didn't you lead the righteous factions to come to support as agreed?"
Yun Qiubai continued: "We originally thought that Master Tongxuan had won their trust after killing several Han family disciples, and the time was almost ripe. How did we know that he was going to massacre the third sect? At that time, something unexpected happened in the middle, and we had to change our plan. Fortunately, although there were occasional changes on the elder's side, our plan did not cause any damage to the hall."
Elder Gu Li asked: "What changes could make you give up your original plan?"
Han Songqing did not answer directly, but asked instead: "Elder, have you ever heard of the other two casual cultivators who are as famous as Nangong Jingqiu?"
"A casual cultivator who is as famous as Nangong Jingqiu?" Elder Gu Li lowered his head and thought for a while, secretly going through the many famous casual cultivators in Jiuzhou in his mind.
To say that among these casual cultivators, the four with the strongest cultivation and the most famous reputation are the Medical Immortal, the Alchemy Demon, the Drunkard and the Qijue Scholar. It's just that the medical fairy and the drunkard had already died in the hands of the man in black in the Medicine King Valley.
The remaining alchemy demons are in Yaoming Palace. The Qijue Scholars have disappeared since the battle in the temple. They must be looking for the genius treasure that was born.
Under the four people, they are Taier Zhenren, Mu Daocheng, Jin Buhuan and Zang Wanjuan. They are also known as the four heavenly masters among casual cultivators. They are the ones with the strongest cultivation and strength besides the four drunkard saints.
In addition to the eight of them, there are also Nangong Jingqiu, Tang Zhijiang and Ye Sijiang, as well as Ji Fuchen, who has seen the dragon but has not yet seen its end. These four sword immortals are slightly inferior.
Since Han Songqing said that he was a casual cultivator as famous as Nangong Jingqiu, he must be the other three sword immortals besides her.
"Brother Han, is the person you are talking about... Tang Zhijiang, Ye Sijiang and his wife, or one of Ji Fuchen?"
In fact, Elder Gu Li didn't dare to confirm his guess. It's all because the three people he mentioned are basically only heard of their names but never seen.
"Yes, it's Tang Zhijiang and Ye Sijiang." Han Songqing confirmed Elder Gu Li's guess.
"So what if it's the couple? Could it be that they saw through the relationship between you and Master Tongxuan and only admitted it when they came forward?" Elder Gu Li was confused for a moment as to what happened: "But That’s not right! As far as I know, the couple have been concentrating on cultivation and rarely care about changes happening outside. If you really don’t offend me and I don’t offend others, why would you suddenly come out to cause trouble? "
Yun Qiubai smiled and said: "Elder Guli, please stop making blind guesses. I'd better tell you everything that happened."
It turned out that when Han Songqing led his disciples to massacre two sects one after another, he planned to increase his efforts and massacre a small sect located in the Holy State of the Central Territory, so as to completely clear away the suspicion on Wujixu, and then take advantage of his location in the middle. In Yu Shengzhou, there were many righteous sects around. When they cooperated with Master Tongxuan and led them to Weijiang Mountain, they suddenly discovered that Tang Zhijiang and Ye Sijiang happened to be staying among them.
Caught off guard, many of the disciples led by Han Songqing were killed by the two men, and their true colors were almost revealed. In desperation, I had to retreat temporarily.
Although Han Songqing's plan failed, it didn't stop there. It was all because when he made a sneak attack on this sect, he discovered that Tang Zhijiang and his wife had not seen through his plan. But because, in this sect, there is the immortal treasure they are looking for.
It was precisely because the two wanted to exchange things that they met at the right time, which led to the failure to massacre this small sect.
Han Songqing wanted to give up, but after a secret meeting with Master Tongxuan, she learned from him that Tang Zhijiang was the sister and brother-in-law of Xie Jueming and Tang Zhirou, the chiefs of the Beihai Mermaid Tribe!
Originally, whether they were sisters or relatives and friends, it had nothing to do with Han Songqing's plan. However, Master Tongxuan told him next that Mu Jingyu and the shark tribe used to get along very well.
Coupled with the fact that the matter on Wei Jiangshan's side was over, the two knew that the plan did not proceed according to Elder Gu Li's plan. Immediately decided to change the plan, use their relationship with Mu Jingyu to revive the dispute between Bian, Zhu Yan and the Jiuli tribe, and once again stir up the relationship between the Sharman tribe and the Zhengdao factions, so that he can Mu Jingyu once again tried to mediate the conflicts between the two parties and continued to deepen the conflicts between the two parties.
Some people died, but not completely...
