The frightened Du Kang, with sweat dripping from his forehead, stood below with his head lowered.
He doesn't have a good idea now.
The only clear stronghold of the [Qinglong Club] is the [Shanhe Gate].
But Su Chen from [Shanhe Gate] had already left the nine northern counties and appeared in Jinling City in the south of the Yangtze River after receiving news.
rack your brains.
Suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Sir, [Shanhe Gate] Su Chen is not here, but [Shanhe Gate] is here."
"The person who handles things on a daily basis at Shanhe Gate is named Zhuge Zhengwo. He must be a member of the [Qinglong Society]. As long as we take down Zhuge Zhengwo, or [Shanhemen], we will definitely be able to find some people from the [Qinglong Society]." clue."
Du Kang said anxiously and wisely.
Regardless of whether it’s useful or not, let’s put it this way first.
If it works, he will be able to deal with Duke Tianding in front of him, and his position as the new governor of the nine northern counties will also be secure.
"My lord, Master Du Kang's words are somewhat reasonable. How about I go to [Shanhe Gate] personally to capture Zhuge Zhengwo?"
Behind Duke Tianding, there was a middle-aged man wearing a black robe. The man had a resolute face and an ordinary face, but he also exuded a terrifying aura.
】
This person came to the north with Duke Tianding. One of the guest ministers from the official department of the nine counties in the north was named Cao Zhen.
Although this person has an ordinary face, he is ruthless in his actions. Before joining the official department, he had no achievements. However, after joining the official department, with the power of one person, he killed a sect's members until they were bloody. No chickens or dogs were left behind. He was so fierce back then. His name was very popular among the officials, and he was known as the Bloody Hand Slaughterer.
But in these years, he disappeared and remained in seclusion among the officials.
Unexpectedly, he would follow Lord Tianding to the nine northern counties this time.
"If Cao Keqing takes action, I'm afraid Shanhe Sect will really shed a river of blood!"
Du Kang below was thinking in his mind.
Hearing this, Duke Tianding thought for a moment and then said, "You go with Yuan Mu and be sure to bring back Zhuge Zhengwo alive."
"I want to see how the [Blue Dragon Club] reacts!"
Lord Tianding said in a deep voice.
"My subordinates will definitely bring Zhuge Zheng and I back intact!"
Cao Zhen and another person bowed and said at the same time.
Then the two of them bowed and walked out of the hall.
"Go back first and see if there are any other clues!"
Duke Tianding said to Du Kang below.
"When I go back, I will immediately send people to investigate and try to find useful clues."
Du Kang touched the sweat on his forehead and bowed out of the hall.
Secretly glad that he escaped.
There were only two people left in the hall.
Duke Tianding and an old man wearing dark red robes.
The old man's face was slightly pale, his eyes were condensed, and there was a coldness between his brows. His hair was not white but a strange black color, and there was a vague aura flowing.
It can be seen from this that the other party is not a soft-hearted person.
"Sir, Shanhe Gate is just a stronghold on the other side's surface. If Cao Zhen removes it this time, then the [Qinglong Society's] stronghold on the surface will disappear, and it will probably become more difficult."
The old man said in a deep voice.
"It doesn't matter, I just want to use this method to let the forces within the Zhou Dynasty know about the methods of my official department!"
"Recently, two kendo masters appeared in the [Qinglong Club] in the capital. They are very popular, vaguely overshadowing all the major killer organizations in the world, and they also appear in Jiangnan!"
"They want to expand aggressively. I'll pour some cold water on them. As long as we move, I think other forces will take notice and suppress them."
"After all, the world is big or small. There are only so many interests. No one wants their interests to be taken away by others."
"I just don't have the opportunity. I'll give them this opportunity!"
"What's more, the other party doesn't show up all the time. I need to force them to show up. Otherwise, spending so much time with the other party will consume more energy than I can. I can't always be in the nine northern counties!"
"What's the attitude at [Qinglong Temple]?"
Tian Dinggong's tone was calm and his analysis was thorough.
There was no worry in the words.
"[Qinglong Temple], there is no reply yet, but the people from [Dashan Temple] are promoting this matter. When the time comes, I will go to [Qinglong Temple] more times. I believe the people from [Qinglong Association] will There is suspicion.”
"[Qinglong Temple] themselves will also feel the crisis. Although they are in retreat, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers."
"[Qinglong Temple] is now on the territory of [Qinglong Hui]. They can only surrender to [Qinglong Hui] in order to reassure [Qinglong Hui]. However, [Qinglong Temple] is the source of Tantric Buddhism, how can it be subordinated to [Qinglong Hui]" Qinglonghui]."
"So a war is unavoidable. The [Qinglong Temple] also understood this and allowed us to enter the [Qinglong Temple]. It is probably because we want to test the [Qinglong Club]."
The old man said softly.
"Humph, a bunch of bald donkeys are just playing this trick. I hope they can be more forceful!"
Lord Tianding said coldly.
"You also continue to contact [Dashan Temple]. They appear in the nine northern counties. Their ideas are definitely not simple."
"If [Qinglong Temple] is hesitant, let [Dashan Temple] force them to take action."
Lord Tianding said in a deep voice.
"My subordinate understands!"
at this time
Governor's Palace
The new governor Du Kang returned to his mansion.
Immediately arrange for strict precautions within the mansion.
Then he returned to the study alone.
Duke Tianding wanted to deal with [Shanhe Gate] and sent Cao Zhen.
Once [Shanhe Gate] becomes a river of blood, [Qinglonghui] revenge will inevitably appear, and he, the governor, may be the first to suffer.
As long as we fight, who cares whether you are the governor or not.
"It seems that our Lord Governor is very scared!"
Just when he was relaxing, a deep voice sounded in his ears.
Du Kang raised his head and looked towards the place where he was speaking.
His eyes showed horror, and he stammered: "Qinglonghui, Xue Yiren!"
"Don't be nervous!"
"I just want to ask the Governor what he said to Duke Tianding today? And what plans Duke Tianding has."
"I think the Governor will tell us!"
"After all, the Governor doesn't want to die in the Governor's Mansion like Wen Yifan."
"Mr. Tian Ding, he is leaving here, but you, sir, still have to stay here!"
"Sometimes people need to cherish their lives!"
Xue Yiren said coldly.
While speaking, a sword intent appeared on his body and condensed out. The cold sword intent enveloped Du Kang with a killing blow.
a moment
Du Kang felt an extremely cold breath envelope his whole body.
The shadow of death weighed on his heart like a huge mountain.
His face turned pale and he was sweating profusely.
Previously, he was nervous with Tian Dinggong, but now he is frightened.
Although he himself had some strength and was in a dilemma between heaven and man, in front of Xue Yiren, he knew that he would not be able to make a single move under his sword.
"explain!"
Peng!
Just when he wanted to speak.
Xue Yiren gave a low shout, and the energy in his body suddenly exploded, all pressing down on him.
Du Kang knelt on the ground beneath his body.
"Tian Ding Gong, sent Cao Zhen and Yuan Mu to [Shanhe Gate]. I don't know Yuan Mu very well, but Cao Zhen bloodbathed a sect force back then, and his methods were ruthless. They want to bring Zhuge Zhengwo back. .”
Du Kang, who was kneeling on the ground, said quickly.
