Gongsun Cheng and Chi Cangping didn't know when they would come back after they left. Except for Gongsun Yao and Yan'er who were nervous and not focused on anything else, the others were waiting and had to go whatever they had to do.
After all, the miasma struck too suddenly, and now there is a shortage of manpower everywhere in the Miaoland. Caiwei did not wait here. She still needs to continue to complete her work, which is to separate more pure heart and body protection from the Holy Spirit Gu. to prepare for the large group of people to enter the valley and burn flowers.
Lu Hanjiang took the opportunity to deal with the affairs that he had accumulated these days. He quickly came to Miaojiang, and all the information on the rivers and lakes that he needed to review was sent to Bishui City.
Lu Hanjiang glanced at the documents stacked two or three feet high on the table. His eyes twitched. He picked up a book and looked at it for a few times before putting it down. He asked the people around him, "Have you read all of these?"
Standing in front of him was the apparent shopkeeper of Xiangyun Trading Company, and one of the hundreds of households who stayed in Bishui City. Upon hearing the Lord's question, the hundred households immediately replied: "Reporting to your Lord, when the information is sent, we I’ve seen them all.”
"Then I will stop reading. Is there any information that needs attention?"
Lu Hanjiang was happy to be the boss, but it was hard for the people below him to know what was important and what was not important. It was natural for them to say this kind of thing rightly, but it would be a dereliction of duty for them to say anything wrong.
But they all know Mr. Lu's character well, and they have asked all the questions, so now they can only bite the bullet and answer.
The hundred households thought about it for a while and carefully replied: "My lord, I see from my humble position that there have been a lot of small things in the world recently, and various sects have made some small moves. Wuyue Taishan seems to be interested in merging factions, and is contacting people."
"Hao Bansheng?" Lu Hanjiang said with a thoughtful look on his face: "He picked a good time. The leader of Beiyue and Nanyue was dead and crippled. Lu Wen of Songshan was still unable to get on the stage. The rest of Huashan... Gu Qianhan is not easy to deal with, well, just send someone to keep an eye on this matter."
"I understand the humble position."
After the hundred households responded, they continued: "Furthermore, although Wudang has suffered a great disaster, its heritage is still there. These days have slowed down a lot, but the seven sons of Wudang have lost more than half. Unless Qiyunzi and Yangzi two An old man goes down in person... In the short term, Wudang's voice in the arena should be much smaller."
Lu Hanjiang touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then said: "Wudang side, if we take action, we will suffer losses no matter how we fight, it is not cost-effective... We still have to find a way to let Shaolin take action. I have my own countermeasures for this matter, all you need to do is Just inquire about information normally."
"yes."
After the hundred households agreed, they thought for a while and then said: "In addition to some small things on the righteous path, there is also the fact that the Xuantian Sect has been making some frequent moves in the Beidi Demonic Path recently."
"Xuantian Sect?" Lu Hanjiang put aside his laziness, calmed down, and said, "Let's talk about it."
"Yes, according to reports from our spies, the Xuantian Sect is attacking everywhere. The righteous sects in the North are bearing the brunt. Now, including the Golden Blade Sect, Baiyun Temple, and Zhaojian Mountain, seven major sects have been wiped out." Then. Baihu replied.
"Are they serious?" Lu Hanjiang was stunned. He didn't expect Xuantian Sect to be so big this time.
Although the Xuantian Sect is the top sect in the Demonic Way, their so-called sect destruction is different from other Demonic Ways. They do not cut down all of them, but they also persuade them to surrender while killing people. ….
If you choose to abandon the light and turn to darkness, Xuantian Sect will not only not kill people, but will also grant you a high position. This is why Xuantian Sect has been attacking cities everywhere over the years, but the number of followers under its command has been increasing.
In Lu Hanjiang's view, the troubles caused by other sects in the arena are caused by scabies, but Xuantian Sect cannot be underestimated. After all, the people behind this are the prince's forces, and they are really here for the imperial court. .

Second, ever since Mr. Meng planned to request an imperial edict to directly destroy all the sects in the North with the strength of the border army, the Xuantian Sect became smarter. They gave up all their apparent strongholds and went completely underground. Start playing hide and seek with the court.
Even though the Imperial Guards have the ability to cut mountains and cut rivers, they can't even find their enemies anywhere. So what can they do no matter how strong they are?
Unable to find the roots of Xuantian Sect, this is the biggest reason why Jinyiwei has always been passive when dealing with them.
But now, Xuantian Sect has taken the initiative to attack these righteous sects. Not only did they fight, but they also occupied the territory. Isn't this exposing itself to Jin Yiwei as a target?
"Something's wrong..."
"Sir, is this Miao border incident also related to them?" The hundred households asked abruptly.
Lu Hanjiang was startled, pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, this is indeed an accident. The Xuantian Sect just picked a good time."
The chaos in Miao territory was caused by two aspects. First, Lu Hanjiang stepped on Bai Du Weng's Bagua array, which made the miasma in the Valley of Death uncontrollable.
These two, the Lingyue clan members who discovered that the formation was damaged, did not immediately destroy the source of the miasma. Instead, they became greedy and had luck with the power of the miasma, and planned to deal with it by make do.
Neither of these two things could be predicted by the Xuantian Sect, so Lu Hanjiang was sure that the incident in the Miao border had nothing to do with them.
But at some point, they must have known about the chaos in Miaoland, so they took the opportunity to cause trouble in the Northland.
The Jinyiwei family has a great cause, and there is no problem in taking care of both sides at the same time. However, Lu Hanjiang cannot be divided into two places. He can only go to one of them, the Northland and the Miao Territory.
This obviously targeted strategy allowed Lu Hanjiang to see the shadow of the Crown Princess in it. The destruction of the Eastern Family was imminent, and the Crown Princess was not a fool. She would not rush in without a way to deal with him.
"Who is the one......"
Lu Hanjiang frowned lightly. With just a few words, he couldn't figure out the intentions of the Xuantian Sect and the Crown Princess for a while. He could only order his men to inquire carefully and report back every detail.
However, talking about Xuantian Sect, Lu Hanjiang remembered another strange thing. He had Ji Qianli summoned. The general banner followed him and was responsible for a series of intelligence in the medical city.
Lu Hanjiang called him here this time just to ask about the medical city.
"It's been some time since Qu Lianqin was arrested. Why didn't Xuantian Sect come to rescue her? I remember that Dharma King Youyun was very precious to that little demon girl. Why has there been no movement for so long?" Lu Hanjiang asked.
"...I don't know even if I'm a humble official. Maybe the Xuantian Sect hasn't received the news yet?" Ji Qianli was also puzzled by this matter.
However, his casual remarks revealed the truth of the matter.
In the world, the only people in the world who can monitor the entire Jianghu at the same time are the Imperial Guards. The Xuantian Sect is not that capable and can only monitor a few important locations in a targeted manner.
Therefore, some important personnel in the sect, such as Qu Lianqin, were followed by dedicated personnel to ensure their safety and at the same time be responsible for transmitting information. The person responsible for the safety of the Little Demon Girl was none other than Chai Lianshan, the protector of the Xuantian Sect.
The protector was kicked to death by Lu Hanjiang, and he didn't pay much attention to it afterwards. When he was found the next day, his body was hardened. Because the Xuantian Sect always acted incognito, no one knew who he was.
Chai Lianshan's body was left unclaimed in the local government office for a day, and then the government officials took it to the mass grave in the back mountain and buried it. There was probably only a skeleton left.
The person responsible for delivering the message was dead, so he naturally did not tell Dharma King Youyun how her granddaughter was living in the medical city at the moment. .
