Chapter 434 Earthquake
Yun Jin had guessed this long ago, but her expression didn't change.
She was more interested in Gao Jingxuan's ability to "see the big picture from the details."
The imitation ability of this fake Chen Chen must be amazing, otherwise, even Qin Ping would not have been deceived by him.
But Gao Jingxuan saw it at a glance.
This ability seems to touch upon some kind of rules.
Yun Jin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Haven't you ever met the king before? When you met him before, didn't you think there was anything wrong with him?"
Gao Jingxuan explained, "The monarch has always been close to scholars. Several years ago, when I came to the capital to study, the monarch came to the academy once, and I saw him from afar. The next time we met was when I won the top spot in the imperial examination and was canonized and sent out. The monarch was far away that day, and I didn't dare to look up and gaze directly at his face. I can't say if there was anything wrong with the monarch back then. However, the monarch today is definitely not the same person who came to the academy that day."
Gao Jingxuan was very confident in his judgment. He gave a positive answer directly without any questioning tone.
"It's quite interesting." Yun Jin nodded.
Everyone thought Yunjin was talking about the fact that the king had changed.
Little did they know that Yun Jin was talking about Gao Jingxuan's magical ability.
"Young master, your eyesight is simply amazing. This Gao Jingxuan is probably a good seedling for cultivating immortals." Tianpo Sword was also amazed.
Yun Jin just chuckled. She didn't offer any suggestions, but simply asked, "Brother Gao, what should we do next?"
Gao Jingxuan's face was solemn. "I suspect the real collusion with the demons is with this fake monarch. If we can find evidence and present it to the Demon-Slaying Alliance, perhaps we can break this situation."
The Demon-Breaking Alliance and the sect did not intervene, and the reason they gave was that this was the Canglan Kingdom's own business and they could not interfere.
But if it is proven that this fake monarch is related to the demons, the Demon-Slaying Alliance will have to intervene.
Gao Jingxuan said solemnly, "I intend to stay with this fake monarch and search for evidence. You wait for me outside the palace. Once I hand over the evidence, you must use all means to pass it on to the Demon-Slaying Alliance."
Gao Jingxuan's tone was solemn, and it was obvious that he was ready to sacrifice himself.
Everyone couldn't help but feel sad.
Yun Jin looked at it for a moment and said calmly, "If it's related to the demon clan, the Demon-Slaying Alliance would have intervened. Why didn't anyone intervene when the fake monarch imprisoned Qin Ping on the pretext of colluding with the demon clan?"
Gao Jingxuan was stunned for a moment, then explained, "I heard there are two voices within the Demon-Slaying Alliance. One believes that as long as it's related to the demons, they should intervene. The other believes that since the Canglan Nation has already uncovered the truth, there's no need for them to interfere. Now that both sides have supporters, the situation is at a stalemate. As long as we submit key evidence, we will definitely be able to turn the tide."
Yun Jin sighed, "After all, I'm still young, and I'm still a little naive when it comes to dealing with people."
Yunjin looks very old-fashioned.
Gao Jingxuan's expression changed, and he couldn't help asking, "I wonder what's wrong with my idea?"
Yun Jin raised an eyebrow. "Of course it's inappropriate. What's inappropriate is that you actually thought there would be reinforcements for this matter."
Gao Jingxuan's expression changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking about. His face changed slightly.
Yun Jin said expressionlessly, "You should all be aware of the demonic energy wielded by Qingxiao Pavilion disciples. Later, the other three sacred grounds joined forces to investigate Qingxiao Pavilion. Right now, all the high-ranking officials are busy investigating Qingxiao Pavilion and are unable to deal with matters outside. Think again, who is the true ruler of this area? Could it be your monarch?"
Gao Jingxuan's face turned even paler.
Of course he knows.
If we talk about the real ruler, it can only be Qingxiao Pavilion and Lin Xiao!
If the leaders of the three holy places were held back by some issues and unable to take action, then Qingxiao Pavilion was still the actual ruler of this area.
There are many cultivators in the Demon-Breaking Alliance in this area, and they are also close to Qingxiao Pavilion.
If that Lin Xiaolin Sect Master really gave the order...
So.
Just as Yunjin said.
The Blue Country will not have any reinforcements.
"Qingxiao Pavilion is really...really with the demon clan..." Gao Jingxuan's voice was a little difficult.
"The results of the investigation haven't come out yet. However, we must be prepared for the worst." Yun Jin sighed, "You need to first accept the fact that to save Qin Ping, we can only rely on ourselves."
Afraid of scaring Gao Jingxuan, Yun Jin didn't say anything yet. She suspected that not only would they not have any reinforcements, but those from the Yuehua Sect might even come to take advantage of their misfortune.
"Rely on ourselves?" Gao Jingxuan couldn't help but feel confused.
Their opponents are at least masters of the Mahayana stage.
And him?
Even if he has thousands of wisdom and hundreds of means, what can he do in the face of absolute strength?
For the first time, a look of despair appeared on Gao Jingxuan's face.
Is he really unable to do anything?
Yun Jin looked at him meaningfully. "If this were just a mortal world, your wisdom and means would be enough to make you reach the pinnacle. However, this is a world of immortal cultivation. Here, if you want to control your destiny, you can only rely on strength. Only with the power to transcend everything can you protect those you want to protect and achieve true freedom."
Yun Jin's words seemed to be hinting at something.
Gao Jingxuan couldn't help but look a little dazed.
He suddenly realized.
This mysterious woman seemed to have realized that he didn't actually have much pursuit of strength.
After knowing that he had five spiritual roots, he did not spend too much time on cultivation. He only thought that if he served as an official, he would protect the people there, and if he served as prime minister of a country, he would protect the people of that country.
But he did forget one thing.
That's it.
After all, this is a world of immortal cultivators.
Strength is the ultimate truth.
The path he has been sticking to over the years cannot be said to be wrong.
But... in the end, he couldn't truly protect everything he wanted to protect.
"Senior." Gao Jingxuan couldn't help but change the way he addressed Yun Jin: "Senior, who exactly are you..."
Yun Jin shook her head: "When the time comes, you will know."
Gao Jingxuan was immediately shocked by Yun Jin's B-style, and couldn't help but provide her with 530 consecutive emotional values.
Yun Jin felt secretly happy.
In order to quickly improve her cultivation, she almost used up all her previous emotional value.
The small treats provided by Gao Jingxuan suddenly seemed extremely precious.
"Senior, according to your idea, we..." Gao Jingxuan was asking respectfully.
Suddenly, the ground beneath them began to shake slightly.
Gao Jingxuan's expression suddenly changed.
This, what is going on?
But an earthquake?
No, that's not right.
The capital is suppressed by the national destiny, and such a change has never happened since the founding of the country.
"What's going on?"
The people of the capital also came out one after another, and the entire city was shaking violently.
It seemed as if something terrible was about to happen.
Everyone's faces couldn't help but show a bit of uneasiness.
