Chapter 296 Master, I understand again

Ganzhou, Tianxu Tower.

"Half-Immortal Ghost Mist... dares to fight against the sky?"

Shen Ziqing put down the information in his hand, muttered something, and his squinting eyes opened, with light flickering in them.

"It looks like the master has taken action."

"Using the three ancient caves as bait to gather together the Taoist monks hiding in Meizhou?"

"Master's purpose is definitely not limited to this. This is probably just a cover to attract the attention of the Taoist sect. Master has already obtained what he really wanted."

While playing Go, Shen Ziqing tried to guess Li Yanmo's plan, but after thinking for a long time, his temples only swelled.

Even if the plan was advanced to this point, Shen Ziqing still couldn't keep up with Li Yanmo's thinking.

Shen Ziqing did not blame Li Yanmo for not revealing his plan. The master had a long-term vision and would naturally say it when it was time. Besides, the plans revealed now are enough to make him suffer.

One should not aim too high.

Shen Ziqing adjusted his emotions as quickly as possible and contacted Yuanluo Zong through the talisman at hand.

The person who connected the talisman was the seventh elder of Yuanluo Sect, who was also the elder in charge of money of Yuanluo Sect.

Shen Ziqing had already adjusted his state, and took the initiative to speak without waiting for the other party to speak, "Seventh Elder, what exactly does Meizhou mean?"

The so-called preemptive strike means taking the initiative first and bringing the opponent into your own rhythm.

Of course, if you lack confidence and act rashly, you may be counterattacked and fall into a disadvantage.

But Shen Ziqing doesn't like risks. If he wants to take action, he will aim to kill the opponent in one breath.

Shen Ziqing's tone was not heavy, but his anxious, unpolite way of speaking frightened the Seventh Elder so much that he almost threw the talisman in his hand away.

The Seventh Elder had just received intelligence about Meizhou and was in a state of panic. Shen Ziqing's call completely disrupted their rhythm.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen! The Meizhou incident has nothing to do with us! We don't know why such a thing happened!"

The Seventh Elder naturally knew why Shen Ziqing came, and also knew why Shen Ziqing was so anxious.

It must be the semi-immortal ghost fog.

As an elder who manages money in a first-rate sect, the Seventh Elder certainly understands the twists and turns behind the Taoist sect.

On the surface, this time the Taoist sects worked together to sow the seeds for the collapse of Dayu's power system, but Taoism was only an alliance of millions of sects, and the super and first-rate sects had their own ulterior motives, all wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to profit or to trip up other sects.

Their Yuanluo Sect was tripped up by other first-rate sects, and their disciples who were disguised as ancient monks were almost caught several times.

But as the saying goes, if it isn't exposed, it isn't exposed.

Dayu only suspected that the Taoist sect disguised itself as ancient monks to attack Dayu's expeditionary force, but there was no witness or evidence, and the matter did not become a big deal.

But the problem of the semi-immortal ghost fog is too big! This is not something that Dayu can turn a blind eye to. Even though no one has been caught yet, Dayu will definitely send more troops into Meizhou afterwards. All the sects involved in this incident are at risk of being exposed!

Rely on the millions of Taoist sects to unite and put pressure on Dayu?

That's impossible. Would the person who created this semi-immortal ghost fog not know what kind of turmoil this would cause in Dayu?

The person behind this mischief must be a super sect that did not participate in this operation! That super sect wanted to use other sects as shields to resist the wrath from the Dayu Dynasty. On the one hand, it achieved its own goals, and on the other hand, it weakened the strength of the super sects that participated in the Taoist plan and increased its own voice in the Taoist sect.

It’s so vicious! It’s so vicious!

The ones who suffer the most from this vicious plot are naturally their Yuanluo Sect. In order to give an explanation to Dayu, the Taoist sect will most likely choose to protect itself and sell out the Yuanluo Sect!

If Yuanluo Sect was sold, Shen Ziqing's plan in Zhuozhou would be declared bankrupt, and his status in Tianxu Tower would plummet and be ruined!

So how could Shen Ziqing not be anxious? !

In the Seventh Elder's imagination, Shen Ziqing was extremely anxious at the moment and was trying to pretend to be calm. But in reality, Shen Ziqing was leisurely rubbing the black chess piece in his hand, "Seventh Elder, is your Yuanluo Sect's backer...reliable?"

The Seventh Elder's expression froze slightly, knowing that Shen Ziqing was asking which super sect was leading this plan.

“Mr. Shen, this…I can’t say it.”

The Seventh Elder hesitated and could not explain clearly, but he also did not mention a word about the super sect behind them.

Seeing that he could not find out any information about the super sect behind this plan, Shen Ziqing was not disappointed, but his tone became heavy, “Seventh Elder, I’ll tell you the truth, this incident in Meizhou has caused the anger of the top leaders of our Tianxu Tower.”

“A lot of business has been screwed.”

The Seventh Elder's heart skipped a beat, and he recalled Zhou Yi's previous speculation.

Tianxu Tower might be related to ancient monks.

"Seventh Elder, we are now in the same boat. If your business fails, I will not be able to make a complete comeback. You must not tell anyone else what I am going to say next!"

The seventh elder immediately swore an oath with his heart of Tao.

"The ancient cultivator who attacked Constable Dayu a few days ago actually has a close relationship with Tianxu Tower! That ancient cave was specially prepared for him by our Tianxu Tower, and everything in it is his personal property!"

"But someone disguised himself as an ancient cultivator and ran around in Meizhou, and even had the Dayu Expeditionary Force chase them all the way. As a result, not only were our three ancient caves exposed, but even Meizhou's Tianxu Tower had to be abandoned and evacuated!"

Shen Ziqing said with a sad heart.

"We have put hundreds of thousands of years of hard work into this business, and we must also compensate the ancient monk for the property he stored in the ancient cave!"

The Seventh Elder’s eyes went dark and he almost fainted.

Tianxu Tower dared to instigate Emperor Lie to change the dynasty, so it doesn't seem strange that it harbors ancient monks.

If it were in the past, he would only feel emotional and at ease, but at this critical moment, the Seventh Elder's heart was about to explode.

It was their Yuanluo Sect who proposed to disguise themselves as ancient monks to attack Li Lin, forcing Li Lin to leave the barracks and act alone.

Their Yuanluo Sect not only caused the complete collapse of Tianxu Tower's industries in Meizhou, but also resulted in the caves of several ancient monks being divided up completely!

But from Shen Ziqing's tone, it seems that he doesn't know that it was their Yuanluo Sect that was in charge?

The Seventh Elder stuttered and changed the subject, "No, I wonder if Master Shen knows the powerful person who mobilized the heavenly tribulation and defeated the Semi-Immortal Ghost Mist with the heavenly tribulation?"

Shen Ziqing raised the corner of his mouth slightly, “That’s my master. He heard that a large number of ancient cultivators appeared in Meizhou, so he went to Meizhou on purpose and checked the conditions of the three ancient caves.”

The Seventh Elder rolled his eyes and fell straight to the ground.
