"Whether we will go all out depends on whether Shushan dares to go all out. Is the purpose of the Cheng family this time really just to see how much wealth we have hidden over the years?" Cangsong The Taoist looked at Taoist Xuanzhen and smiled.
Maybe this is just a joke, but no one knows what the Cheng family's true purpose is now.
So now everything is still difficult to determine, and they have to be careful.
What if the Cheng family really just wanted to trick them, but they foolishly put all the outstanding disciples they had hidden over the years into the competition? What if the Cheng family wants to cause trouble for them?
Even though their relationship with the Cheng family is indeed better than that of some other sects, they are not the Cheng family after all, and they don't know what the Cheng family wants to do.
Moreover, it is impossible to tell the Tianshan Sect and Cangling Sect what the Cheng family wants to do, so it is best to be careful.
"In that case, let's all find out in the competition! I'll take my leave now!" Taoist Xuanzhen stood up and said.
Seeing Taoist Xuanzhen leave, the other heads also left.
There were only two people left in the entire hall, Yu Lingzi and Cangsong Taoist.
"What do you think is the chance that the dynasty will deal with the Cheng family?" Yu Lingzi asked softly.
It was just the two of them, and their conversation became much more casual. After all, the two sects have been friends for generations, and they have been friends for many years, so naturally there are not many taboos.
"It's hard to talk about this matter. I heard that a very sensational thing happened in Yungui City a few days ago. I wonder if you have heard about it?" Cang Songzi said.
"Are you talking about what happened on the Yungui City Competition Arena?" Yu Lingzi asked.
He did know something about this matter, but he didn't go down the mountain often, so he basically listened to what his disciples said about the outside world.
Therefore, I have basically heard about many things that happened in various cities of the Cheng family, but I basically only understand some general information, and the specific things are not clear.
"It seems that you have also heard about it, but I wonder if you know the origins of those troublemakers?" Cangsong Taoist asked.
"Does Brother Cangsong know the origins of those people?" Yu Lingzi asked with some doubts.
“That’s not true, it’s just that our disciples from the Cangsong Sect were also present that day, so they told me what happened at that time.
According to those disciples, these people don't seem to be casual cultivators, and there should be powerful people behind them. "Taoist Cangsong simply told Yu Lingzi what those people said.
"This doesn't seem to mean anything, right?" Yu Lingzi said after listening to Cangsong Taoist's account.
“If it’s just that little bit, it’s nothing, but there is another very strange thing that you may not know.
These people apologized to the people in Yungui City and left Yungui City. However, the people from the Yungui City Lord's Mansion quietly captured these people back one night a few days later. Cangsong Taoist said.
"Since he was captured quietly, how did Brother Tao know about it?" Yu Lingzi asked doubtfully.
"This was also discovered by my disciples. As for how they discovered it, they told me it was just a coincidence. As for whether it was a coincidence, only they themselves know clearly.
But they saw with their own eyes that those people were captured and taken to the Yungui City Lord's Mansion! "Cangsong Taoist explained.
"Then what do you mean, these people are from the dynasty?" Yu Lingzi did not worry about how the disciples of the Cangling Sect discovered this matter.
With his many years of friendship with Cangsong Taoist, if it was convenient for him to say it, he would naturally say it. If there is something inconvenient to say, it is normal for him not to say it. There is no need to get to the bottom of it.
"It's hard to say, but since the Cheng family wanted to capture them secretly, they obviously felt that these people must not be ordinary people.
Otherwise, the Cheng family could arrest people in the city openly, so why bother sneaking and carefully taking people back to the city lord's mansion at night? Cangsong Taoist said.
"What you said makes sense, so the identities of these people are really suspicious. But judging from the current situation in the world, the only ones who really dare to trouble the Cheng family are the dynasty and some ancient hidden forces. "Yu Lingzi thought for a while and then said.
"That's right, it's just that those ancient hidden forces basically don't show up in the world, and even if we want to look for them, we may not be able to find them.
Although that dynasty is also very mysterious, it has never been hidden from the world. Instead, it has always secretly controlled the world.
More importantly, when Xuantian Sect caused a bloody storm in the world, some people from the dynasty were also involved, which is enough to show that the dynasty's ambition to control the world has never disappeared.
So the possibility of those people coming from the dynasty is relatively high. Cangsong Taoist analyzed.
"That's true, especially when Cheng Yu defeated the masters of the Dynasty. Cheng Yu also had a problem with the Dynasty, so it makes sense for the Dynasty to want to deal with the Cheng family.
It's just that I still haven't figured it out in some places. If the dynasty wanted to deal with the Cheng family because of the incident with the Xuantian Sect, it took action after the defeat of the Xuantian Sect. Why did it wait until now?
As for what you said, the Dynasty did not intend to deal with the Cheng family before, but after seeing the rapid development of the Cheng family over the years, it became wary of the Cheng family. I always feel that this is a bit too far-fetched! "Yu Lingzi said with a frown.
"Why do you say that?" Cangsong Taoist asked.
"From our level, the Cheng family has indeed developed very rapidly in recent years, and its current strength is much stronger than that of the Cheng family back then.
But I feel that no matter how fast the Cheng family grows, it will never be able to shake or threaten the dynasty's control over the world.
And if the dynasty really wants to destroy the Cheng family, it must not be difficult with the huge power of the dynasty, right?
Why should the dynasty be so cautious and send so many people to the Cheng family? Obviously, they didn't want to send these people to destroy the Cheng family. At least this power was far from enough. "Yu Lingzi said doubtfully.
"Perhaps these people they sent are just pawns, specifically to find out the strength of the Cheng family first.
Although the Dynasty is very powerful, we have never dealt with the Dynasty head-on, and no one knows how powerful the Dynasty is.
Since they used the power of Xuantian Sect to annex so many sects, I think the dynasty may not be as powerful as we thought.
Just because the dynasty is too mysterious and we don't know enough about the dynasty, we always feel that the power of the dynasty is unimaginable.
What's more, Cheng Yu defeated so many masters of Dynasty back then, which shows that Dynasty is not impossible to defeat.
Facing such a situation with the Cheng family and Cheng Yu, it seemed that there would be no problem if the dynasty was more cautious.
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight without slacking off! Cangsong Taoist said.
There is definitely more than one mysterious dynasty in this world, but compared to other ancient hidden forces, the dynasty has always been active in their circles.
And those ancient hidden forces only exist in legends. To be honest, they know that the dynasty really exists, but they are not sure whether those ancient hidden forces really exist.
At least they have never seen anyone from the ancient forces.
"That makes some sense, and I heard that dynasties are divided into outer dynasties and inner dynasties. And compared to only one inner dynasty, there are many outer dynasties.
It is precisely because of this that the dynasty is able to control such a large area of the world.
So I think even if the dynasty is strong, it will be relatively scattered. If they really wanted to destroy the Cheng family, they would have to summon all the foreign dynasties, which was obviously impossible.
Thinking about it this way, it makes sense that the Cheng family is so cautious and has not attacked the Cheng family for so many years! "Yu Lingzi thought about it carefully and said.
"If the strength of the dynasty is really not as strong as we thought, that is definitely a good thing!" Cangsong Taoist said.
"You want to say that when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits, right?" Yu Lingzi said.
"Yu Lingzi, I know that Tianxue has a good relationship with the Cheng family, and the Cheng family has taken good care of us these years.
But now we are living under someone else’s roof, don’t you want the Tianshan Sect to return to the world of cultivation and gain freedom? "Taoist Cangsong told Yu Lingzi the truth.
If it weren't for the years of friendship between the two, and everyone knew everything about it, he would never have said this to Yu Lingzi.
"If the Tianshan sect can be freed, that is naturally what I hope for. But when we got to that point, if the Cheng family hadn't saved us and given me such a three-quarter acre of land to develop again, we wouldn't even be able to develop now. I don't have the qualifications to live under someone else's roof.
Moreover, we made a contract with the Cheng family. If there is a foreign enemy, we should all advance and retreat together. Do you still want to violate the contract? " Yu Lingzi said.
"Cheng Yu did save us back then and gave us this shelter, but over the years we have also provided many talents to the Cheng family.
Even for the sake of the Cheng family, we have missed many good opportunities for development and growth over the years. Otherwise, we would not be as strong as we are now?
If the dynasty really wants to attack the Cheng family, I will not say that I will help the Cheng family defend themselves against the enemy. At least I will not stab the Cheng family in the back.
To put it bluntly, even though this dynasty is not as powerful as we imagined, it is definitely not weaker than the Cheng family.
If we intervene in the conflict between these two superpowers, we may not be able to escape. Cangsong Taoist said.
"Anyway, everything is just a hypothesis now. If the dynasty really comes, let's make another plan!" Yu Lingzi thought for a moment and said.
"Indeed, it is not certain whether these things will happen or not. Naturally, we need to consider it in the long term, so I will leave first!" Cangsong Taoist nodded, and did not ask Yu Lingzi to give him a result today.
"Alas!" Looking at Taoist Cangsong's leaving figure, Yu Lingzi sighed helplessly.
