It is not an easy thing to convince someone, especially when that person is a person with terrible reputations such as female butcher, peach blossom bee, Five Poison Lady, Ecstasy Granny, Grandma Xiong, etc., it is even more difficult. .
Fortunately, Xu Yi is not an ordinary person.
After a lot of love (soul induction) and action (forced deterrence), he finally convinced Gongsun Lan and agreed to work with her to deal with the little old man Wu Ming and his invisible man organization.
After exchanging intelligence, obtaining the information he wanted, and arranging the subsequent lurking mission, Xu Yi graciously let Gongsun Lan leave.
Within a few jumps, Gongsun Lan disappeared into the night.
Looking at the direction Gongsun Lan left, Xu Yi's eyes were as deep as the sea.
"With her here, it shouldn't be a problem to postpone it for two or three months."
To convince Gongsun Lan to surrender to him?
Xu Yi has never put his treasure on this. Although due to the transformation of his soul, his understanding of the "Soul Transferring Technique" has improved by leaps and bounds during this period, and he has directly reached the LV·6 level, but this is only equivalent to the soul method at the innate level. That’s all.
Moreover, Xu Yi has not yet understood much at LV·6, which is equivalent to entering the innate level for the first time. It can have a certain impact on the innate warriors, but it is impossible to control the innate warriors through this.
Gongsun Lan is among the top beings among innate warriors. Although he may not be as good as Ximen Chuixue in terms of character, will, etc., he is definitely not comparable to ordinary innate warriors.
Even ordinary innate warriors may not be able to control Xu Yi's methods, let alone her.
But Xu Yi never thought of controlling her.
All he wants is to use Gongsun Lan to hold down the little old man Wu Ming for a while!
"I am still no match for the little old man Wu Ming. If I have the courage to do so in three months..."
Whether it is Zhu Wuwu or the little old man Wu Ming, Xu Yi adopts the "drag" strategy.
Shangguan Haitang and Gongsun Lan were his tools to temporarily hold these two people back.
These two people were originally used by Zhu Wuwu and Wu Ming to contact him in the early stages. As long as there were no major problems in this contact, Xu Yi believed that it was unlikely that these two people would come directly to look for him.
At least in the short term, this is unlikely.
This is the commonality of these 'big men'.
Even if they were indeed very interested in Xu Yi, in order to maintain their own integrity, they would usually have an 'envoy' to contact him first.
Based on the quality of this contact, we will determine how they should treat Xu Yi in the future.
Is it integration and acceptance? Or should we pay homage first and then attack with force?
They regard this as a courtesy to top players and top talents.
And this gave Xu Yi room for maneuver.
"As long as it lasts two or three months, it will be fine."
On the deserted street, there was only one sound that was too shallow to be heard.
When he looked again, Xu Yi's figure had long disappeared.
the next day.
As Xu Yi expected, Shangguan Haitang changed into a daughter and came to contact Lou Shuwan.
Of course, Shangguan Haitang is still very scheming. It is impossible to directly reveal her daughter's body and contact Lou Shuwan. It would be too utilitarian, and normal people can see through it at once.
What she chose was to first let Lou Shuwan "accidentally" discover her daughter's identity through Lou's Cloth Shop, and then use this "secret" to build a relationship with each other bit by bit.
That night.
Lou Shuwan snuggled into Xu Yi's arms and couldn't help but sigh when talking about this incident.
"Husband, this Shangguan Haitang is so awesome! If you hadn't explained it to me in advance, I would have almost regarded her as a friend!"
Shangguan Haitang not only has exquisite methods, but also has extremely powerful communication skills. After a few conversations, people have already become fond of her.
Even someone like Lou Shuwan, who was vigilant in advance, now no longer treated Shangguan Haitang with pure disgust, but with a bit more appreciation.
Otherwise, she would not have said such words in front of Xu Yi. After all, she had always regarded Shangguan Haitang as her 'imaginary enemy'.
Xu Yi stroked Lou Shuwan's smooth and exquisite body and said.
"As for Shangguan Haitang, there's nothing wrong with you treating her as a friend."
"Um?"
Lou Shuwan looked surprised.
"Husband, didn't you say that she is the person Zhu ignored? How..."
"Zhu Wuwu is Zhu Wuwu, and Shangguan Haitang is Shangguan Haitang. Zhu Wuwu is not a good person, but Shangguan Haitang is okay, although she may be a bit pedantic."
In the early stage, Shangguan Haitang regarded Zhu Wuwu as a god and almost unconditionally supported whatever Zhu Wuwu did.
But after discovering Zhu Wuwu's true identity later, she was still able to stand on the side of 'justice' and help the emperor deal with Zhu Wuwu who wanted to rebel. From this point of view, she herself still had some righteousness.
Although for Xu Yi, no matter whether she is on Zhu Wuli's side or on the emperor's side, she has a hostile relationship with him... He also wants to rebel!
However, Xu Yi didn't mind the fact that Lou Shuwan and Shangguan Haitang were friends.
Firstly, this is more real, and secondly, Shangguan Haitang can indeed be regarded as a 'good person'.
"I see."
Lou Shuwan was thoughtful.
Next, with intentional contact between both parties, the relationship between them began to gradually improve.
Even some insignificant news about Xu Yi was passed on to Shangguan Haitang bit by bit under Xu Yi's secret instruction.
With the exact harvest and an almost visible progress bar, Zhu Wuli's side naturally stabilized and did not invest too much energy in Xu Yi's side. Instead, he left all the power to Shangguan Haitang. .
In these years, Shangguan Haitang is definitely one of the most useful subordinates in Zhu Wuli's hands, it can even be said that there is no one!
Although he and Wan Sanqian have strong support behind him, Shangguan Haitang's ability to develop the No. 1 village in the world to what it is today is definitely top-notch!
At this time, Zhu Wuli still had considerable trust in Shangguan Haitang's ability. If he couldn't even handle Shangguan Haitang, he would have to take action.
However, it seems that things have not reached that point yet.
And compared to Xu Yi, Zhu Wuwu is still paying more attention to Ye Gucheng.
You wouldn't know if you didn't check, but his secret investigation of Ye Gucheng really made him discover a lot of problems - especially the ambiguous relationship with Zhennan Prince's Mansion, which made him secretly frightened.
"Could it be that Ye Gucheng's trump card is Zhennan Palace?"
Although the Zhennan Palace has been very low-key in recent years, with no influential power either in the court or in the world, this is a serious palace after all!
Even in terms of succession to the throne, Zhennan Palace is still ahead of him, a brave god like him!
Although he who controls Dragon Protection Villa can be said to be second only to the top person in power in the entire world, there are only a few people who can equal him.
But in terms of inheritance rights to the 'throne', his 'imperial uncle', who was born in a collateral lineage, was really not as good as King Zhennan, who was raised like a pig but was a relative of the main royal lineage.
Of course, on the surface, the possibility of Zhennan Palace and Ye Gucheng being able to successfully ascend the throne as emperor is still low.
The combined power of the imperial court in this world is simply too powerful!
Zhu Wuwu, who is as powerful as the master of Dragon Protection Villa and the No. 1 Villa in the World, has no confidence that he can win the world by force.
Zhennan Prince's Mansion and Ye Gucheng's apparent strength is not as good as his!
"There must be a secret behind this that I don't know about!"
After noticing this, Zhu Wu ignored it and focused most of his attention on it. Naturally, he had no time to care about Xu Yi.
the other side.
The same is true for the Invisible Man Organization. Due to Gongsun Lan's delay, this organization or the little old man Wu Ming had no intention of officially coming to see Xu Yi.
In their words, this is their "inspection period" for Xu Yi. Only when Xu Yi passes their inspection will they truly incorporate Xu Yi into their organization.
Well.
Whatever they think!
As a force that considers itself to be the best in the world, and it is very likely that it really is the best in the world, it is normal to have an arrogant attitude. Anyway, all Xu Yi wants is to delay for a while.
It doesn't matter whether this delayed period is an 'inspection period' or some other period.
When Xu Yi lands on Wuming Island and takes the power of the entire island into his own hands, will their ideas still have any meaning?
Time passes day by day.
The peak showdown between the Sword Immortal, the Sword God and the Sword Master in the arena has become more and more intense, and there are more and more discussions.
Although every ten or twenty years in the world, there will be one or more major duels between top players, but these duels are almost always very private or only known to a very small number of people.
By the time ordinary people know about it, the war is often over.
For example, the recent battle between Xu Yi and Ximen Chuixue, the battle between Ximen Chuixue and Yan Tiezha, and even the more ancient battle between Gu Santong and the ten sects, the battle between Gu Santong and Zhu Wuwu, etc.
These are the top level showdowns in the world!
But by the time this news reached the ears of ordinary people, the battle had already ended, even several months ago.
Although this will also arouse a lot of discussion, it is obviously not as good as today's big showdown where the outcome is still unknown.
The reason is simple. In a football game, the level of attention before knowing the result is completely different from the level of attention after knowing the result.
In these fierce discussions, Xu Yi is still just a small and transparent character. Most of his supporters are teenagers, so he really doesn't have more voices to speak out.
Even Ximen Chuixue, who was defeated by him, had indeed accumulated a huge number of young and middle-aged 'fans' in the past ten years, and the support he showed was far greater than him.
Of course, this is still not as good as Ye Gucheng, who has accumulated twenty years of experience and is still at his peak, and is vaguely known as the best swordsman in the world.
This can be seen from the odds offered by the casino.
If Ye Gucheng wins, the odds are 0.5 to 1.
Ximen Chuixue wins, and the odds are 1 to 2.
Xu Yi wins, and the odds are one to three.
Ximen Chuixue's odds are four times that of Ye Gucheng!
In comparison, the odds difference between Ximen Chuixue and Xu Yi was not big, only 1.5 times.
This should be the reason why Ximen Chuixue was defeated by Xu Yi.
However, judging from this odds, the vast majority of people still don't think highly of Xu Yi.
This shows how difficult it is to change the overall impression of a group of people!
Perhaps Xu Yi once defeated Ximen Chuixue, but this was just an instance, and in the eyes of many people, Xu Yi did not have much of an upper hand in that confrontation, and there was nothing wrong with calling it a draw.
In such a decisive battle, they would trust people with rich combat experience like Ximen Chuixue more than 'newcomers' like Xu Yi, so there was no problem.
You know, in the original work, during the decisive battle between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, the odds between the two sides were almost the same!
Ximen Chuixue gained great reputation in the world because of his consecutive defeats of the three top powerhouses, Yan Tiezha, Dugu Yihe and Huo Xiu.
He even completely completed his identity transformation and was recognized by everyone as the Sword God, comparable to the Sword Immortal Ye Gucheng!
Unfortunately, in this world, because of Xu Yi's intrusion, Ximen Chuixue only defeated Yan Tiezha in the end. He also lost to Xu Yi, a 'newcomer' who had just emerged from the world, causing his reputation to be far less than what it was in the original plot.
Ximen Chuixue's reputation failed to meet expectations, and what finally emerged was that Ye Gucheng was now in a situation where he was almost a single family.
In the warm-up for this big showdown, Ye Gucheng alone was more popular than Ximen Chuixue and Xu Yi.
Ximen Chuixue's popularity can still explode from time to time, sparking discussions among the world, but Xu Yi almost "cannot find this person".
Whenever a few young people wanted to speak up and say something, they were directly pushed back by the seniors.
How old are you? What do you know about swordsmanship!
Let’s go back and practice the basic swordsmanship first!
no way.
In this arena, if you are not strong enough, no one will listen to you even if you want to speak.
And besides Xu Yi, a pervert, how many people in the world can have the strength to make others obey at the age of about twenty?
Regarding these issues, Xu Yi had no idea at all, and was even happy to see the results, and even let people from Skynet help behind the scenes.
The most important thing for him now is to keep a low profile!
It would be great if everyone could take their eyes away from him.
Although he didn't completely get what he wanted, Zhu Wuwu and the little old man Wu Ming were eyeing him, but under his operation, he had temporarily stabilized them.
As for the attention of some young people, not to mention whether they can find his problem, just say that the Skynet he secretly raised is not a vegetarian!
I can't deal with the invisible man, I can't defeat the Dragon Protector Villa, how can I still defeat you little bastards?
So and so.
Xu Yi finally got a rare period of training time, and he did not waste this time. His strength began to improve by leaps and bounds during the meditation.
Soon, he came to the edge of the practice.
