Chapter 871 Hard Fight
About an incense stick later.
There was dead silence in the messy meeting hall. More than a dozen people looked at each other, unable to utter a word.
A few breaths ago, Wei Changtian finally left.
Of the six masters who assassinated him yesterday, four died and two were captured. Facing such a situation, one can imagine how everyone in the room felt at the moment.
Half an hour ago, they were still indignant and threatened to fight to the death with Wei Changtian, but when the latter really appeared in front of them, no one dared to stand up.
They just watched Wei Changtian break into the government office, kill people, arrest people, and then leave.
If they recalled what they had just said, they would feel like they couldn't find a hole to hide in.
At first glance, this contrast seems ridiculous.
Just like Wei Changtian said, it seemed as if everyone in this room was a hypocritical piece of trash.
But in fact, this is not really a question of "hypocrisy or not".
Before, under Su Qi's instigation, everyone's bold words must have come from the bottom of their hearts, and most people did have the awareness of sacrificing themselves for justice.
If they really planned it carefully and then faced Wei Changtian according to the plan, perhaps these people would really dare to fight to the death.
It’s a pity that Wei Changtian came too suddenly.
The sudden change caused a huge psychological gap among everyone.
To put it bluntly, although they are determined, they are not yet ready.
In addition, Wei Changtian shocked everyone with his thundering methods right from the start, which led to such a humiliating ending.
Of course, no matter what, things have come to this point and nothing can be undone.
From the moment Wei Changtian walked out of the government office safely, this already fragile alliance had already been shattered, and it would be impossible for them to come together again.
"Su, Master Su, goodbye."
After an unknown amount of time, someone finally bowed his head to Su Qi, then quickly walked out of the meeting hall.
Then the rest of the people left one after another. Some would say something to Su Qi, but most of them didn't say a word at all.
Maybe everyone is too embarrassed to say anything anymore, or maybe they don’t know what else to say.
In short, not long after Wei Changtian left, the originally "bustling" meeting hall became empty, with only Su Qi still standing there, looking at the four corpses lying on the ground as if he had lost his soul.
Although I had heard that Wei Changtian was able to kill a second-grade master with one move when he was at the sixth-grade level.
Although it has long been known that three emperors have died at the hands of Wei Changtian.
Although it was already clear that Wei Changtian defeated a million troops alone under Fengyuan City.
Although he was well aware of all the "feats" that Wei Changtian had done, he had never dared to underestimate such a "living devil". But at this moment, when Su Qi saw Wei Changtian take action for the first time with his own eyes, he finally realized how terrifying the latter was.
He finally understood how a master who could kill a second-grade warrior in seconds could do whatever he wanted, and he also understood how disastrous the consequences would be if this power fell into the hands of an "evil man" like Wei Changtian.
“.”
His body kept shaking, and there was no other emotion in his eyes except despair.
Su Qi was not feeling despair for himself, but for the fate of Daqian.
So, did I make the wrong choice?
On the other side, the mansion in the east of Linchuan City.
Just when Su Qi fell into deep self-doubt, Wei Changtian had already brought the two second-grade masters who were beaten half to death to the place where the four people from the Jiuzhen Sect were staying.
There were ten assassins yesterday. We persuaded four of them to rebel, killed four, and captured two alive.
In fact, Wei Changtian is fully capable of killing these two people.
But he did not do so. Instead, he planned to let Li Zimu interrogate them to see if he could get any useful information.
That’s right, Wei Changtian did not take the mysterious man’s warning seriously.
Well, that might not be accurate.
Strictly speaking, he would not be swayed by the enemy just because of a hairpin.
After experiencing so many intrigues and life-and-death struggles, Wei Changtian had long understood a truth -
No matter what the threat, you must never show any submissiveness or weakness.
Although objectively everyone has weaknesses, if you act tough, they are no longer your weaknesses.
Only when you reveal your weaknesses or even succumb to the threats from your enemies will they become your real weaknesses.
Therefore, Wei Changtian now not only has to continue to investigate the identity of the mysterious man, but also uses more drastic measures than originally planned.
Dare to threaten me?
Fuck you!
"Sir, this."
Soon, the four people from the Jiuzhen Sect met the two second-grade masters who had "fought side by side" with them yesterday.
Looking at the two people who were lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, and then looking at Wei Changtian who looked calm, the four of them swallowed their saliva, and after a long while they asked cautiously:
"Sir, did you just go to the government office?"
"Um."
Wei Changtian didn't explain too much, but just ordered in a deep voice: "These two people will stay with you for the time being. You must keep a close watch on them and don't let them escape."
"I will send someone to interrogate them tonight at the latest. You just need to cooperate with him then."
"Yes, I understand!"
The four of them looked at each other, then responded in unison, not daring to ask any more questions.
Wei Changtian had no intention of leaving, so he walked to the table and sat down, then continued:
"Also, I need you to send a message to Huo Tianyang immediately, telling him that I want to see him."
"this"
The four of them were stunned. They didn't expect Wei Changtian to suddenly make such a request.
It’s not that it’s strange that Wei Changtian wants to see Huo Tianyang.
After all, the four of them knew that Wei Changtian was investigating the mysterious person behind Huo Tianyang, so it was normal to start with Huo Tianyang himself.
But Huo Tianyang is the leader of the Jiuzhen Sect and a prominent figure in Daqian. How could he be called here with just a message?
Not to mention that Wei Changtian directly revealed his identity, so how could Huo Tianyang fall into his trap?
"Sir, we are not questioning you, but..."
After hesitating for a moment, the old man in yellow finally spoke cautiously.
He tried to test Wei Changtian's expression, and then continued, "It's just that Huo Tianyang is a suspicious person by nature. Besides, the Nine True Sect is very far away from Linchuan City. Unless we can give him a reason why he must come, he probably won't come."
"Of course there is a reason."
It was obvious that Wei Changtian had already thought about this matter, so he answered directly as soon as the old man in yellow finished speaking:
"Kill the son and seize the fortune."
"Pass these four words to him and tell him I know all his secrets."
"If he wants to know why, he can come to Linchuan and see me."
