Lingcheng finally realized that Yue Shengzhi was not in the Chiqing Army.
After reaching a deal with Shangguan Ning, she would probably leave. All they had to do was to do their best to help Yue Sheng make this deal, even at the cost of coercion.
By then, Shangguan Ning would be hard-pressed not to resent Yue Sheng. No wonder she was instigating them and manipulating internal strife within the Shangguan clan.
She hoped that Shangguan Ning would be entangled with Shangguan Qian so that he would have no time to deal with her, right?
Lingcheng figured out the other party's plan, but didn't think the other party was plotting against them.
The goals of both sides are the same, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides. He will do whatever Yuesheng says.
As they were talking, the sounds of fighting outside the valley gradually subsided.
All three of them raised their hands to say goodbye. Before leaving, Ling Cheng remembered something and reminded them, "Oh, Commander Yue. Shangguan Qian has planted a nail in the Yue Camp. I don't know who it is, but I know that this person has a relative who died in the blood pill incident.
Shangguan Qian pinned the blame for the blood pill on Shangguan Ning, using this as a leverage point. Commander Yue might be able to capitalize on this."
Xiang Sheng raised an eyebrow, "Is Shangguan Qian the one behind the Blood Pill?"
Ling Cheng shook his head. "Shangguan Qian once traced the source of the blood pill, but found nothing, and ultimately left it unresolved. However, it's possible he's just the thief crying 'stop thief'. Commander Yue will have to figure that out for himself."
Xiang Sheng nodded thoughtfully, "Thank you for letting me know."
Ling Cheng said nothing more and left first. Deng Jiang and Wang Tu followed closely behind him and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
The hall returned to silence, and Xiang Sheng finally had time to send a message to Ye Chuxue.
Outside the valley, the female fairies of the Moon Camp were already blood-thirsty.
Protected by the top-grade battle formation, their overall defense is comparable to that of a Golden Immortal, and the attacks of the bone beasts cannot break through them at all. They only need to charge forward with all their might, without the need for defense, and the killing is so satisfying.
Ye Chuxue was at the core of the formation, deploying troops but seemed a little absent-minded.
The commander has been in there for a long time, why can't he hear any movement?
In another half a quarter of an hour, the road ahead will be cleared, and then...
Buzz!
Suddenly, there was a vibration at the waist, and Ye Chuxue's eyes lit up instantly, and her spiritual consciousness could not wait to probe into the communication talisman.
"The ambush was completely defeated. I am in the palace in the valley. Find a way to bring Nie Zhi to see me alone. Don't alert others."
Seeing the first four words, Ye Chuxue's mind instantly calmed down.
Great! The Commander is fine.
Then, she saw the following order and was slightly surprised.
The commander already knew Nie Zhi was a spy? Was he taking this opportunity to deal with her?
She calmly mobilized the battle formation to continue the attack, but her mind was in a state of flux.
It's a bit difficult to take Nie Zhi in alone without alerting others...
No matter how difficult it was, Ye Chuxue finally did it.
Nie Zhi followed Ye Chuxue into the Bone Stone Palace. Seeing the figure standing in front of the broken statue with his hands behind his back, his face, which was filled with murderous intent, instantly froze. "Master Qianfu, didn't you say that the commander was seriously injured..."
Seeing that Xiang Sheng was indeed unharmed, Ye Chuxue smiled, "If I hadn't said that, why would you have come with me?"
Nie Zhi felt a chill in his heart, and then a cruel look appeared in his eyes. The source of poison surged in his body, and he transformed into a giant snake, opening his bloody mouth and biting Xiang Sheng.
"Commander, be careful!"
Ye Chuxue screamed in shock, but before she could make a move, she saw Xiang Sheng grab the giant snake's venomous forelimb with one hand, and twisted it casually. The snake's mouth immediately turned back to its comfortable zone, causing the entire snake body to twist into a knot.
Xiang Sheng loosened his grip again and lightly patted the snake's head with his palm. The giant snake trembled violently and flew backwards like a cannonball, hitting the bone stone wall hard. It slid down and turned into a human body, spitting out a mouthful of blood, staining the bone stone ground red.
Ye Chuxue's heart, which had just been lifted up, was immediately put at ease.
In her haste, she had forgotten. The commander had even managed Shangguan Qian's ambush with ease, so even if Nie Zhi was a Golden Immortal, she still couldn't cause any trouble.
Xiang Sheng walked up to Nie Zhi, his tone light and his emotions unclear:
"No wonder he dares to be Shangguan Qian's thorn, he's quite capable."
Nie Zhi spat out a mouthful of blood foam, looked up at Xiang Sheng with hatred, "I only regret that I'm too weak to kill you!"
Xiang Sheng chuckled and asked knowingly, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. I'd like to know where your hatred for me comes from."
Nie Zhi's eyes were red, "Shangguan Ning's men all deserve to die!"
"This sounds familiar."
Xiang Sheng squatted down and looked Nie Zhi in the eye. "You also have a blood relative who died from the blood pill?"
Nie Zhi was stunned when these words came out, "You..."
"If there really is such a person, you should be interested in him."
Xiang Sheng casually made a move, breaking the barrier at the corner of the wall. The young man in black robes floated over involuntarily, knelt in front of Xiang Sheng, and kowtowed repeatedly: "Senior, please spare my life! Senior, please spare my life!"
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes at the black-robed youth and transmitted his voice to the secret realm: "Master Yuan, did you really hear correctly?"
"No!"
Taoist Yuan said excitedly, "The spy's voice I heard back then was exactly this person!"
Xiang Sheng reached out and covered the head of the terrified young man in black robes, confirming that there were no restrictions or restraints in his sea of consciousness. He threw the man in front of Nie Zhi and said, "This is the man Shangguan Qian sent to ambush me. You should know him."
Nie Zhi was somewhat confused by Xiang Sheng's series of actions and nodded subconsciously: "I have seen it."
"very good."
Xiang Sheng tapped the black-robed young man's brow and said, "As a Golden Immortal, you shouldn't be unable to perform soul-searching techniques, right?"
After hearing these words, the young man in black robe was terrified. He was about to beg for mercy again, but he found that he could not make a sound and his body was out of control and he could not move.
"You want me to...search his soul?"
Nie Zhi seemed to understand something, her voice trembled, and there was resistance and fear in her eyes.
She was afraid that the memory of the young man in black robes contained the answer she wanted.
