Emperor Yu descended the Four Pillars: to suppress demons, exorcise devils, deliver ghosts, and slay immortals. From the Four Pillars, Four Gates were born: the Dao Gate to slay demons, the Buddhis...
Chapter 227 Sect's Plot Arrangement
Shen Ziqing closed the folding fan in his hand with a snap and pointed at the people standing in the front.
"The first-rate magic sect Yuan Luozong, Zhou Yi, Cheng He, Zhang Ke..."
The masked men stiffened a little with each name they spoke, but they did not take warning and instead pulled the masks off their faces helplessly.
"I won't report the names of the remaining few. I'm just a little curious... Which super sect told you to come to the Demon-Suppressing Mountains, and what did they ask you to do?" Shen Ziqing tapped his palm lightly with his folding fan. Although he was smiling, there was no trace of laughter in his expression.
The people present were all in the Nascent Soul stage, and if they were besieged, Shen Ziqing would surely die, but no one present dared to take action.
Because Shen Ziqing is backed by Tianxu Tower, even the super sects have to give Tianxu Tower some face, not to mention their first-rate sect.
The fact that Shen Ziqing appeared here meant that he knew more, and now that he took the initiative to ask, he was actually giving them face.
“Mr. Shen, please don’t misunderstand. Our action this time was the result of careful consideration and discussion. It is by no means reckless and will definitely not affect Tianxu Tower,” As the leader of this trip, Zhou Yi took on the role of negotiating with Shen Ziqing.
"Brother Zhou, I really want to believe you, but your move is a conflict between the noble marquis and the commoner marquis' son. Everyone knows that Emperor Yu is different. Maybe Emperor Yu is digging a hole and waiting for you to jump into it so that he has the opportunity to send troops," Shen Ziqing put away the folding fan and shook his head helplessly, "Sending troops requires resources, and we don't want Emperor Yu to patronize Tianxu Tower."
"this……"
Zhou Yi and the others were very confused. What Shen Ziqing said was indeed reasonable. They were not at ease with exchanging identities, but they were also risking the entire sect on this journey.
If you ask the higher-ups at this time, your position might be exposed.
Just when Zhou Yi and the others were struggling, Shen Ziqing said, "Shen doesn't want to embarrass you, so how about this, if you can make Shen feel at ease, the door of Tianxu Tower in Jingzhou will be opened for you."
When Zhou Yi and others heard that there was a chance to get directly into Tianxu Tower, their breathing suddenly quickened.
That is the Tianxu Tower, an existence as secretive as Dayu's shadow. Even the geniuses from super sects may not have the opportunity to step into it. They can only obtain the goods in the Tianxu Tower through some purchasing channels.
Now that the chance to get tickets is right in front of them, how could they not be tempted?
“Mr. Shen, are you serious?”
"Of course, Shen can still make the decision on this little matter. But you have to let Shen rest assured."
“Okay – Mr. Shen, please follow us!”
Zhou Yi and the others no longer hesitated and immediately led the way for Shen Ziqing. Soon they jumped over the outer circle, entered the middle circle, and came to an extremely hidden cave.
Shen Ziqing frowned slightly. This cave was not simple. If Zhou Yi and the others hadn't led the way, he wouldn't have been able to find it even if he used his spiritual sense. Moreover, this cave was already close to the inner circle of the Demon-Suppressing Mountains.
At this time Zhou Yi spoke up, “Mr. Shen, have you ever heard of Bahuang Hou?”
"Of course, he is a celebrity," Shen Ziqing raised his eyebrows, knowing that Zhou Yi was about to reveal his cards.
Even though this place was very safe, Zhou Yi subconsciously looked around and lowered his voice, "In fact, the origin of the Eight Desolate Marquis is extraordinary, and he is definitely not an ordinary commoner. We have found out some things, and the Eight Desolate Marquis...maybe he is also a descendant of the first Emperor Yu!"
Shen Ziqing was stunned, with a strange expression.
There are so many people in this world who have the bloodline of Emperor Yu. They may be tomb robbers, knights, miracle doctors, farmers, or woodcutters.
But speaking of the Marquis of Eight Desolations, that is a little unbelievable.
Those princes and princesses wished to be as far away from power as possible.
However, Shen Ziqing quickly thought of a possibility and smiled meaningfully, “Whether there is Emperor Yu’s bloodline or not…it doesn’t matter at all, right?”
Zhou Yi and the others immediately showed the same smile, "As expected of Master Shen. The Marquis of Bahuang has already shown a tendency to become the leader of the commoner marquises, and his youngest son Li Lin has recently become a dragon among men, trampling on those noble princes under his feet."
"But if this is not enough, Li Lin grew up in Baidi City after all. His achievements are at most on par with his father, Marquis Bahuang. If this is all, it would be a waste."
Hearing this, Shen Ziqing nodded thoughtfully, "In other words, you intend to use this spring hunt to plant the seeds of suspicion of Dayu in Li Lin's heart, and then make him feel that he has the blood of the first generation of Emperor Yu and is qualified to sit on the dragon throne."
"So that he can legitimately shake the rule of Emperor Yu from within."
“As expected of Mr. Shen,” Zhou Yi and others did not nod directly, but praised with a smile.
"It is... a good idea, but what if Li Lin is loyal to Dayu?" Shen Ziqing smiled and shook his head, "Besides, Emperor Yu has great means, so how can Li Lin fight against Emperor Yu?"
Zhou Yi laughed, "Master Shen, how can those who talk about morality and justice but use it to attack others be true gentlemen? They... are just waiting for a legitimate excuse."
"Whether Emperor Yu was a sage or not was not important to them at all. They just needed a reason to suspect that Emperor Yu had a conspiracy so that they could justify their misdeeds."
"If Emperor Yu's unworthiness is not enough, how about giving them a reason to save the world?"
"It doesn't matter whether Emperor Yu has harmed the common people. They just need a righteous excuse, and they will fill in the rest themselves."
Zhou Yi took out a storage bag from his arms and shook it gently. A dry skeleton emitting a strong aura fell to the ground. The other few people stepped forward and placed the dry bones towards the direction of Baidi City, and dressed the dry bones in armor that only King Yu had. A man picked up a sword and carved a few lines of words on the stone wall.
All those handwritings exuded a strong and sharp aura. Every line of words denounced Emperor Yu as a hypocrite, and the last line lamented that he hoped that someone with a destiny could inherit his legacy and save the people of Dayu.
"Mr. Shen, look - the reason, isn't it? As for the question of strength -"
Zhou Yi raised his hand and hung a storage bag that exuded an ancient atmosphere around the waist of the skeleton.
"Isn't this already there?"
Shen Ziqing glanced at the storage bag, "These are not enough."
"Of course it's not enough, but it's enough for him to stand out. As for what will happen next... Master Shen, have you heard that the great scholars used the Jixia Academy to predict the future with every prince and princess as the crown prince, and the result was only one future."
Zhou Yi smiled meaningfully.
"This shows that our plan was successful."
“Mr. Shen, are you relieved?”
