Another calm day.
The explanation Shi Liuxia originally thought did not happen.
It was as if the other party deliberately broke into a house with an owner, and then in front of the owner, he ate, drank, and...
In short, he showed his unscrupulousness to the fullest, and even arranged for the third elder's subordinates to directly poach Shiliuxie.
In response, Shiliuxie's face looked a little ugly, but he was not emotionally furious.
He was hypothesizing what he would have chosen without the help of Wangyou Ghost Market. Most likely, he would have turned a blind eye.
After all, compared to the life threat posed by the state army, the other party's pretense of provocation is actually less painful.
"They should be testing whether there are other forces behind you." Huang Tiangui pondered for a moment and said, "It's just that this method is a bit stupid."
Shi Liuxia nodded, and then looked at a piece of white paper on the table, on which were written the names of the forces that had masters of the pseudo-celestial realm.
Among them, he directly crossed out all those related to the Daxuan Dynasty.
Because anyone with a discerning eye can see that this time Emperor Xuan used the public opinion offensive of Daxuan Weekly to force Mu Che to send troops. This was a warning to this kind of warlord force that would not listen to propaganda.
If Mu Che did nothing, it would most likely turn into a killing of chickens to scare the monkeys.
Therefore, in this all-out war between the state army and the Ten Thousand Poison Palace, all forces that have anything to do with the center of power of the Daxuan Dynasty must stay as far away as possible.
Such as the various university lords, including the aristocratic family military, and the king in the north who has not yet broken through the golden body.
If Emperor Xuan accidentally catches a bunch of tails because of this, who knows if the target that Daxuan Weekly will target next will be him.
In short, after Shi Liuxia and Huang Tiangui's calculations, if they wanted to intervene, the risk would be too great. Even if they gained something, they would lose everything if they were not careful.
After confirming this, Shiliu Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to eliminate it.
The next two targets are the Buddha Land and the Taoist Realm. Their situation is worse than Mu Che. Compared with the warlord forces who listen to orders but not propaganda, they have directly replaced the state pastors in their territories with their own people.
In addition to officially allowing him to maintain his official position in the Daxuan Dynasty, he was almost completely separated from the state.
So at this moment, they were even more vigilant about the battle between Mu Che and the Ten Thousand Poison Palace, even fearing that some clues would be exposed, allowing Emperor Xuan to take this opportunity to draw fire on them.
"The rest seems like I have no choice."
Huang Tiangui looked at the two names drawn in circles on the white paper.
Constellation Alliance and Northern Barbarian Alliance.
Then he wrote three small words next to the Star Alliance - Qinglong Pavilion.
Shiliu Xie frowned slightly to express his confusion.
Huang Tiangui explained: "The Azure Dragon in the East, the Suzaku in the South, the White Tiger in the West, the Xuanwu in the North, and the Wandu Palace is located at the junction of the South Xuan Prefecture and the Southeast Prefecture.
The three of them have been separated since the beginning of the civil strife in the Constellation Alliance, so instead of speculating on the possibility of the three parties joining forces again, it is better to directly target Qinglong Pavilion. "
Shi Liuxie nodded thoughtfully, and he also noticed that Huang Tiangui was trying his best to suppress the impulse in his heart.
He understood what the other party was thinking, but it was obvious that this was not the best time.
"No matter whether the opponent is Qinglong Pavilion or not, if there is a master of the Pseudo-Celestial Realm, it is destined to be impossible to solve it quietly like Ying Tianhong was eliminated before.
Once a war starts, Mu Che will only take advantage. Moreover, the opponent's current combat strength is unknown, and there are still injured on our side. "
Huang Tiangui took a deep breath and said, "I know, it's just inevitable...after all, I've been waiting for so long."
Shi Liuxia stopped talking and continued to stare at the white paper, his eyes darting back and forth between Qinglong Pavilion and the Northern Barbarian Alliance.
If it is confirmed that one of the parties is behind the third elder, then the other party is likely to have reached cooperation with the second elder, and it is not difficult to guess why the expressions of the two elders were so bitter before.
Because even the Ten Thousand Poison Palace in its heyday was just a junior under these two major forces.
However, if it can be confirmed that one party is the Northern Barbarian Alliance, then the other party's determination to weaken the Daxuan Dynasty is believed to be more sufficient than one's own.
Then he sighed deeply and took out two jars of wine from the space ring. After throwing one jar to Huang Tiangui, he directly lifted the other jar and drank.
The guess here was that Huang Tiangui had just taken the small token to notify Qin Fan. As for how to deal with it later, it was not his thing to worry about.
Now I think it is a good thing to take off my identity as the boss, otherwise I would not be in the mood to taste this long-cherished wine at this moment.
On the other side, Qin Fan was also writing and drawing.
Half a day was enough for him to completely digest Jiang Zhiyun's energy, blood and mental power, and after Qin Fan roughly looked through the other person's memories, he erased them all as garbage.
After all, a normal person would not be free to enjoy the experience of a tauren.
It even keeps repeating, repeating, repeating!
Of course, Qin Fan also knew everything about Jiang Zhiyun.
Jiang Zhiyun married nine wives in total, and was cheated on nine times as a result, and his dream-breaking knife skills became stronger as he got cheated on.
Because the Dream-Breaking Knife Technique itself has a special spiritual mysticism, it can greatly stimulate the mental fluctuations when being greened, thus strengthening the power of the Dream-Breaking Knife Technique.
At the same time, Jiang Zhiyun himself has a deep understanding. Every time he is cheated, he truly becomes stronger.
This speed of improvement is far faster than his own hard work. Qin Fan has a say in this. If he can add more, who will just find a place to sleep slowly.
After that, he got used to being green. Even when Jiang Zhiyun found out that he was being greened later, he would feel an inexplicable ecstasy.
Qin Fan did not dare to delve into the changes in his mentality. After all, it was a forbidden area.
So after retaining Jiang Zhiyun's martial arts experience, he completely erased everything else.
And this great master whose spiritual power has surpassed his own realm, coupled with the previous Ying Tianhong, also made Qin Fan take another step forward in his spiritual realm.
It has improved from the seventh level to the eighth level.
As for his own state, he has not changed. Even though he spent five million Source Points to meditate on the "Great Yin Yang Fu of the Emperor and Earth Queen" for five hours, he is still stuck in the middle stage of the Grand Master.
After all, they are only using the power of their blood to break through the acupoints, rather than transforming all their skills. There is still a long way to go before reaching the next level.
Then his attention was focused on the white paper in front of him with some names written on it.
Northern Barbarian Alliance, Prince Wuwei's Palace, Buddha Land Zen Sect, Linxue Nuanxiang Pavilion Xuanhou Line, Qinglong Pavilion, White Tiger Hall, Xuanwu Tower, the first family of Daxuan Dynasty, Dongfang.
Of course, if he hadn't taken the lead, the Underworld Corpse Cult and Ten Thousand Poison Palace would also have been included.
These forces are the allies that Ying Tianhong has attracted during this period. They have made it clear that they will stand on the same front as Ying Tianhong when the battle for the Qianlong List begins.
And it has also been confirmed that Sima Kongming used his only relationship in the court to determine the location of the Qianlongbang battle on the Knife Mountain where the Forging Knife Hall is located.
In addition, although the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, which is absolutely neutral, will not directly intervene, it has also expressed to Ying Tianhong that it will prohibit Xia Jinyu from providing any kind of military support to Wangyou Ghost City before the battle for the Qianlong List is over.
As for which shopkeeper was in charge of all this, Ying Tianhong didn't know because he relied on Sima Kongming's relationship.
Finally, the candidate to preside over the Qianlong List battle is also Sima Kongming.
Qin Fan also knew the reason why Sima Kongming bit him like a dead dog.
Unlocking the so-called memories that were sealed seventeen years ago was just a pretext. To put it bluntly, he wanted to find a shortcut on the road to a higher realm.
When he has no way forward in his position of power, he can only put all his hopes on the search for strength.
"Too naive. No, he not only has no way forward, but also no way back."
After Qin Fan thought for a while, he understood Sima Kongming's situation. He knew that his position as the chief arrester of the six sects was about to be lost, so he bet everything on Wuyou Villa.
As long as he can find out the secrets of Wuyou Villa, he will have the confidence to take a step further, and then the hatred accumulated over the years will be able to be destroyed without any attack.
You must know that the Six Gates were specially used by the Daxuan Dynasty to deal with Jianghu affairs, and sitting in the position of the chief arrester of the Six Gates, there is no doubt that the hatred value has been filled up.
The moment he stepped down from this seat, he was already in the countdown stage of his life.
"To survive?"
Qin Fan shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, the paper in front of him turned into ashes.
Facing the impending death, he was not worried. He had seen through everything in advance and represented the opportunity on his side.
Moreover, Ying Tianhong was a more ambitious man than he expected. After reading through all the memories, Qin Fan knew that what he wanted was not only Wangyou Ghost City, but also the entire Nanxuan Prefecture.
It's just a pity...
When a person dies, all his plans finally come to nothing, but the thought of Ying Tianhong entrusting this plan to his own hands before he died made Qin Fan look a little amused.
"Ying Wuque, come here."
After hearing the message, Ying Wuque entered Qin Fan's room.
He has done a good job in psychological construction in the past two days, and has a clearer understanding of his most important value.
"You will need to sign a magic oath later. If you do anything unnecessary during this period, you will die." Qin Fan's tone was very gentle, as if he was asking Ying Wuque if he had eaten.
Ying Wuque's expression was also very calm, and it could even be said that he was secretly relieved.
Being able to sign a magical oath also means that his life has been saved by Qin Fan, and usually magical oaths related to life have a time limit. This is also a subtle reminder from Qin Fan to him.
After completing this order, you will be free.
After all, just using the threat of death to bind someone indefinitely would be a bad thing.
Ying Wuque naturally understood the implication. He bowed his hands and said:
"Thank you Lord Ghost for giving me this opportunity."
"Take this first." Qin Fan took out a sound transmission token. After explaining how to use it, he said seriously, "Do you know why you can survive?"
Ying Wuque took the voice transmission token, nodded and said:
"My identity is that I am the young master of the Sword Forging Hall. This is more important than my strength."
"That's right." Qin Fan gave the other party a teachable look and said, "The battle for the Qianlong List is about to begin. What would the Daxuan Dynasty think if they knew that Ying Tianhong died in the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons?"
"Probably the Knife Forging Hall will be canceled as the host venue, and even the Knife Forging Hall, which has been severely damaged, will be held accountable."
Ying Wuque also knows a thing or two about the battle for the Hidden Dragon Ranking. After all, he is the only young master from his family who can be sent to the ranking.
In addition, he has a deep father-son relationship with Ying Tianhong, so he also knows some inside information that has not yet been made public.
Qin Fan looked at Ying Wuque with satisfaction. The other party's proactive confession showed that he was cooperating as much as possible, and this was equivalent to handing the handle of the Sword Forging Hall into Qin Fan's hands.
If Qin Fan was prepared to deal with the Forging Sword Hall, he could make the information about Ying Tianhong's death public later, but this would also cause him to lose the opportunity to take advantage of the geographical advantage.
Just like Ying Tianhong is not satisfied with just a Wangyou Ghost Market, Qin Fan is not ready to target only one force.
Then he continued to ask.
"If the senior officials of the Forging Knife Hall knew that Ying Tianhong was dead, what would they do?"
Ying Wuque showed hesitation on his face. The current master of the Knife Forging Hall, the second elder, the third elder, and the sixth elder who had previously taken the initiative to send Xuanyang Domain as bait were all dead.
The only remaining great master-level masters are the great elder Gui Qiuge and the fourth elder.
Now that I think about it, even if I have to hide the news of Ying Tianhong's death first, Gui Qiuge can use his reputation to take all the power into his arms, so his status as the young hall leader is a bit embarrassing.
"I need you to take charge of the situation in the Knife Forging Hall."
Hearing Qin Fan's voice, Ying Wuque shook his head slightly and said, "I can't do it."
"No, you can." Qin Fan looked at Ying Wuque seriously and said, "There is someone who can help you. His strength can surpass Gui Qiuge, and he will never let the battle for the Qianlong Ranking go away from him. control.
But his identity is very embarrassing, and you can make up for this.
And you can also use his support to exercise the privileges of the master of the Sword Forging Hall. Although this time will only last until the battle for the Hidden Dragon Ranking is over, you can take advantage of this opportunity to get more of what you want.
For example, the remaining five movements of the Eight Heavenly Sword Techniques, the complete Abi Dao Three Knives, and the various Heavenly Level Kung Fu collected by the Zhu Dao Hall. "
Ying Wuque's eyes lit up. Although he was the Young Hall Master, he had very little power in the Knife Building Hall. The first technique of the three swords of Abi Dao that he mastered was obtained through a trade with Xiang Bohuai, and he had the opportunity to learn it. .
From the beginning to the end, all he cares about is the sword in his hand. Being able to read all the sword techniques in the world is also the dream he has been pursuing.
Therefore, even if there is no restriction of the magic oath in the future, he will probably immediately agree to all the conditions proposed by Qin Fan.
Then he asked in a somewhat urgent tone:
"Who is the person who can help me?"
"Sima Kongming."
Qin Fan, who was sitting in the shadows, showed a kind smile.
The moment he stood up, the light from the luminous pearls embedded on the wall made his gentle yet cold eyes shine brightly.
