Zhang Yi had been very calm tonight. Even when Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao flew down to protect He Suyou at the end, Zhang Yi was indifferent and just watched quietly from a high place.
At this point, Zhang Yi basically no longer has much hope for this trip to the Broken Heart Valley, which means that in his opinion, it is unlikely that the money tide will be eliminated in the Broken Heart Valley this time. The reason why Zhang Yi came to this conclusion was from Shangguan Hong.
Earlier, Zhu Yan relied on his previous experience in the Wuling Sect to judge that Shangguan Hong was almost the number one person in the Wuling Sect, or even if he was not, Zhang Yi was different from Zhu Yan. Zhang Yi had always stayed in the Wuling Sect. He has never left. He experienced Shangguan Hong being expelled from the sect, Shangguan Hong returning to the Wuling Sect, and all the subsequent conflicts between Shangguan Hong and Lin Jian. Although Zhang Yi had no feelings for Shangguan Hong in the past, He doesn't have much thought, but he knows Shangguan Hong far better than Zhu Yan, and he understands Shangguan Hong deeper than Zong Xi and Jing Lu.
But tonight, the methods Shangguan Hong showed were definitely beyond Zhang Yi's expectations.
Before this Heartbreak Valley, the most frequently used word by Zhang Yi's subordinates when describing Shangguan Hong to him was "cruel-hearted". "Cruel-hearted" refers to Shangguan Hong's temperament, while "cruel-hearted" refers to Shangguan Hong. If Hong doesn't take action, he will definitely hurt people if he takes action. This also shows that Shangguan Hong's methods are brilliant.
And Zhang Yi, relying on his status as a playboy, what kind of master among the qi-refining disciples in the sect has he not seen?
In the past, the most recognized person among the Qi Refining disciples in the Five Spirits Sect was Senior Brother Fan Yan who had not been building the foundation for too long. This person was also the previous leader of the Five Spirits Qi Refining disciples. Although he rarely took action, However, everyone who has seen him take action said that Senior Brother Fan's methods are indeed extremely brilliant and he deserves the title of the number one Qi Refining disciple. Later, Senior Brother Fan Yan established the foundation. Although the position of the top disciples of Wuling Qi Refining was passed to Qian Chao and the other five people, they were not recognized as the first Qi Refining Disciples in the sect. At that time, The various rankings became confusing. Generally speaking, they were Luo Ying, Luo Bin, Yan Shuang, Lu Shuang, Wenyuan, sisters Fang Yang, Fang Han, Cui Yin, Gu Yuan, and even Ma Hu. There are also people who tout it like that, and there is no definite term for it at the moment, but those are just rumors among people.
Later, people like Luo Ying and Yan Shuang also established their foundations one by one. It seemed that there was no longer any ranking among the Qi Refining disciples in the sect. Well, the reputations of Qian Chao and the five people gradually grew. But Zhang Yi always felt that it was not the turn of the five of them yet.
Perhaps because he was not interested in this issue, or for some other reason, Zhang Yi had always ignored Shangguan Hong. The biggest reason was that he had seen Shangguan Hong take action too rarely, or rather he had never seen Shangguan Hong, and had only heard rumors. That’s all.
In the past few days, Shangguan Hong also showed his tricks in front of them, but it was either with her lamp or some extremely troublesome spirit-binding technique, but these methods were nothing in Zhang Yi's eyes. Dengzhan was definitely It was obtained from Qiu Huahe, and the spirit-binding technique cannot be used in face-to-face battles. It can only be used as a means of sneak attack.
Tonight was the first time Zhang Yi saw Shangguan Hong using real means to fight with others. Of course, this was thanks to He Suyou. If he hadn't poured out the lamp oil in Shangguan Hong's lamp, Shangguan Hong would have also He would not be forced into a head-on confrontation with everyone. It can be said that Shangguan Hong's performance tonight surprised Zhang Yi. Before that, he had not expected that Shangguan Hong could be so powerful, so powerful that it far exceeded his. Imagine.
From this, Zhang Yi and Zhu Yan agreed that Shangguan Hong was almost the number one Qi refining disciple in the Wuling Sect, at least she would have few opponents within the sect.
According to Zhang Yi's plan, if Qian Chao cannot be eliminated in Broken Heart Valley this time, then he will try to cooperate with Shangguanhong to deal with Qian Chao and the others. After seeing Shangguanhong's methods, Zhang Yi once returned I am very excited and think it is a good thing that our future partners will be so strong.
But soon, Zhang Yi thought about many more things.
Although he didn't pay much attention to Shangguan Hong in the past, Zhang Yi still knew the general methods of this woman. He saw Shangguan Hong fighting with everyone with ease, suppressing Shao Zhi, suppressing him into a great talent, suppressing Pi Fengling , used spirit insects to deal with Wang Cunxi, easily killed Zhu Yu's spirit beast, and although she was afraid of it, she was still able to equal Ni Qiuyi. During the whole process, Shangguan Hong showed off her endless methods as a spirit-controlling monk. In Zhang Yi's eyes, the spiritual insects... always made him feel that Shangguanhong was definitely well prepared for this trip to the Broken Heart Valley.
It's nothing to be prepared, and the same goes for people like Zhang Yi, but Shangguanhong's preparation is too full, and it can even be said to be a bit too much.
Many of Shangguan Hong's methods are highly targeted, such as sword cultivation and physical cultivation, which were suppressed or suffered losses in front of her. Zhang Yi dared to conclude that, let alone within the Wuling Sect, even if he looked at the entire cultivation Among all the Qi Refining cultivators in the world, there should be no one who can deal with physical and sword cultivators of the same level as easily as Shangguan Hong. In the past, her physical and sword cultivators were a headache just based on their reputation. He has always been at a disadvantage, and if he had not made careful preparations in advance, Zhang Yi felt that it would not have been possible with Shangguan Hong's previous methods.
And before Heartbreak Valley, who was the only physical and sword cultivator that Shangguan Hong could treat with such caution?
Naturally, only Lu Pingchuan and Li Jian were among the five Qian Chao, which meant that the methods she used to deal with Cheng Dacai and Shao Zhi were originally used to deal with those two people.
When he thought of this, Zhang Yi concluded that among the means Shangguan Hong had prepared in advance, there must be some specifically for dealing with Yanxuan, Tang Ping and Qian Chao.
Shangguan Hong's methods must be useful. It can be seen from her fight with everyone tonight. It should be said that they are quite effective.
When thinking of this, Zhang Yi admitted that he had thought of things simply at the beginning. He thought that by finding more people with real means to help, he would be able to deal with Qian Chao. It seemed that he was wrong.
Even though Shangguan Hong was so well-prepared, she still had no idea whether she could defeat Qian Chao's people. It could even be said that she was very unsure. Otherwise, she would not have the oil lamp in her hand. It was because she thought that even after making a lot of preparations, she still couldn't guarantee that she would defeat Qian Chao and the others, that's why she begged for the lamp from Qiu Huahe.
But the lamp oil used to deal with Qian Chao was poured out by He Suyou. What's funny is that the lamp was supposed to be used to deal with Qian Chao. What's even more ridiculous is that the ultimate targets of both of them were Qian Chao's people. , and now they are still fighting fiercely here.
Shang Guanhong can now make his group miserable and helpless without resorting to the means shown by that lamp, but even so, Shangguan Hong still has to prepare that lamp to deal with Qian Chao and the five people. This is what he learned. , even if my group finally faced Qian Chao's five people, there would be very few opportunities to get rid of Qian Chao.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi shook his head and thought things were simple. Shangguan Hong was said to have been fighting against Tang Ping. Therefore, she must know Qian Chao and the other five better than herself. Well, it would have been better if she had known this earlier. , then there is no need to encourage Zong Xi to go to war to invite so many people over. Wouldn't it be better to cooperate directly with Shangguan Hong?
When he thought of this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but look at Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao in front of him, especially Lou Qingyao. In his opinion, Miss Lou's plan would definitely fail.
After thinking that he had figured this out, Zhang Yi thought of another question. At this time, he looked at Jing Lu, who was confronting Shangguan Hong.
This Jing family member who only knows how to make blood rush to his forehead when his chest is hot, a reckless and reckless guy, his main purpose this time is also Qian Chao, and it is precisely to get rid of Qian Chao and others that Xue Jingjie is killed Zhang Yi could guess that Zong Cheng's various influences on Jing Lu must be indispensable for the humiliation that the incident brought to the Jing family. Only that woman could make Jing Lu fascinated.
Little did they know that Zong Cheng's real purpose was to get rid of him and then blame Qian Chao and the other five people. In this way, someone in the Jing family would definitely take action against Qian Chao and the other five people because they could no longer suppress their anger. Can the people of the clan get rid of the five Qian Chao people? As long as they take action, they will definitely be suppressed by the sect council, and their strength and power will be damaged again. The five clans in the sect, Zong Jinghuan Fengzhang, and the Jing clan are ranked only among After the Zong clan, he was deeply feared by the Zong clan, so using the sect to suppress the Jing clan was Zong Cheng's only purpose.
Zhang Yi sighed. He shouldn't have agreed to Zong Cheng at the beginning. He should have thought about it carefully at that time. The reason why he agreed to Zong Cheng's plan was because at that time he had not considered joining forces with Shangguan Hong in the future, and at that time he was eager to get rid of Qian Chao. He felt that if the trip failed, Jing Lu's death would be the backup, and he could use the Jing family to It is an extra layer of insurance to get rid of the money tide, but now it seems that this method is not a good one. In fact, it was too late when Zhang Yi considered that this method was inappropriate. Zong Cheng had already made arrangements secretly, and he was helpless about this.
Zhang Yi was actually worried about himself.
Qian Chao is dead or there are still casualties among the five people. In fact, it is nothing to the big dude. Whether it is Fairy Guhuo or Tang Bonian, even the unreasonable Kang Fu is ranked at the bottom. Even the Zhang family could not be shaken, let alone raise an army to hold them accountable. Well, this is probably why the sect has been suppressing the five families in the sect.
But if Jing Lu is among the dead, it will be different. Even if the blame is successfully put on Qian Chao, who can guarantee that the Jing family will not become suspicious and will not investigate the matter strictly? ? After all, there were people from the Zong family and Zhang family when Jing Lu died, so they would definitely be investigated carefully and closely. Once they found out any clues, it would be a big trouble. , after all, Zhang Yi himself knew about this. If the truth was revealed, there would definitely be a big chaos between the Jing family and the Zong family within the clan, and Zhang family would not be able to stay alone and would also be implicated.
One of these things is what Zhang Yi is most worried about. If Jing Lu dies, he will definitely undergo a rigorous interrogation as a party present. This is what Zhang Yi is very afraid of. The person who interrogates him will probably be Zhang. His own people, but they might use illusion methods to interrogate him. In that case, he would be equivalent to completely exposing himself to others, especially since his secret as a Chongling blood cultivator would no longer be kept. .
What will happen to him in that case?
The best outcome is to be deposed and expelled like Jing Jie. For Zhang, the simplest and safest way is to get rid of him quietly, so as not to expose the matter and implicate Zhang.
So Zhang Yi has now reached the opposite side of Zong Cheng.
He wants to do everything possible to keep Jing Lu.
Of course, it was not Zhang Yi who took action in Zong Cheng's plan to get rid of Jing Lu, nor Zong Xi. Zhang Yi knew that among the people he and Zong Xi invited, there must be someone who would work with Zong Cheng and prepare for the critical moment. He always wanted to assassinate Jing Lu, but he didn't know who that person or those people were. The next thing he had to do was to find him or them.
So since the beginning of the fight tonight, Zhang Yi has been watching everyone present with cold eyes.
