Chapter 25: Conspiracy
After hearing Yan Yunchu's words, Yang Wanshan couldn't help but frown.
How come he doesn’t know that Chan Meng Xiang has this kind of usage?
Well, it's quite weird!
Also, the Moro Kingdom was destroyed more than a hundred years ago.
This Chan Mengxiang should have been lost, so how come it appeared in Yanyunmen?
Yang Wanshan couldn't figure it out, so he asked.
Yan Yunchu stated their guess with a serious face, "Chan Mengxiang was once presented as a tribute to the royal family of the Dayong Dynasty. If there is anyone in the Dayong Dynasty who can still have Chan Mengxiang that has been lost for a hundred years, it can only be the Dayong royal family."
The imperial court and the underworld have been restraining each other for a long time. The imperial court has long been dissatisfied with the power of the underworld sects and families, so it set up an incongruous Supervisory Office, isn't it just to monitor every move of the underworld?
Yan Yunchu said slowly: "Brother Jiang and I have analyzed it. The court wants to use the death of Yunxi's niece to stir up disputes between our six major sects and the aristocratic families, so as to achieve the goal of dividing us."
When Yan Yunchu talked about this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"The court doesn't have many people available, and the number of masters can be counted on one hand, so they won't dare to confront us easily. They can only take their time. We now suspect that the court is cooperating with the Xuanyin Sect and the Shenji Camp."
"What did you say?" Yang Wanshan was shocked and looked at him in disbelief.
The imperial court and the Xuanyin Sect are collaborating. Isn't this unlikely?
If this is true, they are courting disaster.
The Xuanyin Sect has been more and more active in recent years, killing many small sects that did not obey them. Even though the Wulin Alliance had dispatched experts to provide protection, it still could not stop the Xuanyin Sect's evil ambitions.
It is precisely because of this that the Xuanyin Sect has grown so rapidly.
The Xuanyin Sect has become a major threat to the Wulin Alliance. If this is true, the martial arts world will never be at peace.
"I was investigating the destruction of Lingyun Sword Manor a few days ago and found some information." Yan Yunchu thought about it and decided to tell them the information he had found.
This matter is too big to be kept secret.
Yang Wanshan: "What news?"
Jiang Chonglin also looked over, he wanted to know too.
Yan Yunchu said slowly: "Do you still remember the legend about Jin Baiqian, the head of the Jin family of the Wulin Alliance three hundred years ago?"
Jiang Zhonglin and Yang Wanshan looked at each other. Jin Baiqian?
Then nodded.
But isn’t this just a legend? Could it be true?
Yan Yunchu continued, "Jin Baiqian is the first warrior on this continent to break through to become a Grandmaster. According to records, the reason why Senior Jin Baiqian broke through to become a Grandmaster was because of an elixir given by an immortal."
Yan Yunchu: "Because of his Grandmaster cultivation, Senior Jin Baiqian lived for nearly two hundred years. It was because of his existence that the Jin family became the number one family in the Wulin League at that time. It's a pity that Senior Jin Baiqian didn't continue to break through, so when he realized that his time was up, he ordered people to build a cave, which is also his tomb."
Yang Wanshan/Jiang Chonglin: ...
Yan Yunchu: "It is said that there are treasures that rival a country, as well as martial arts secrets that can break through the master level, and all kinds of elixirs given by immortals in the tomb. Jin Baiqian's tomb has attracted many people in the martial arts world. It's a pity that Jin Baiqian's tomb is very secretive, and there are even many suspicious tombs that remain a mystery to this day."
Jiang Chonglin and Yang Wanshan nodded. They had heard this legend before, but never took it seriously.
Yan Yunchu continued, "It is rumored that after Jin Baiqian went into seclusion for twenty years, the Jin family dismissed all the disciples and hid from the world. No one can find their whereabouts."
"What does this have to do with the murder of the entire Lingyun Sword Villa?" Yang Wanshan frowned. It seemed like it had nothing to do with it, right?
Yan Yunchu smiled bitterly, "There are rumors that even if we find Jin Baiqian's tomb, we can't open it unless we find the golden key. Only by collecting all the golden keys can we open the ancient tomb."
"Golden Key?" Yang Wanshan and Jiang Chonglin were stunned.
They had heard of the rumors about Jin Baiqian's tomb, but had never heard of the rumors about the golden key.
As the saying goes, there is no wind without empty learning, this golden key may not be untrue.
Yan Yunchu: "When the Jin family dismissed their disciples, they gave the golden key to four inner disciples. Brother Li's ancestors were inner disciples of the Jin family, so the Xuanyin Sect came to visit them."
"Among the small sects that were wiped out a few years ago, there were descendants of those who took the golden key. Now, the Xuanyin Sect probably has collected three golden keys. If they get the last golden key, the consequences will be disastrous."
The Xuanyin Sect is difficult to deal with. If they were to really get the secret of breaking through to the Grandmaster realm, the entire martial arts world would be devastated.
Jiang Zhonglin asked, "Have you asked Li Qing about this matter?"
Li Qing is the young master of Lingyun Sword Manor, he should know about the golden key!
Yan Yunchu shook his head. "I've asked, but Qing'er doesn't know about the golden key. We can only find Brother Li to know the truth."
But from the current perspective, Brother Li is probably in great danger.
Jiang Chonglin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "This can be explained. The Xuanyin Sect wants the golden key, and the court wants to resolve the situation of Jianghu, so the two sides cooperate to achieve their respective goals."
The court has limited manpower, and for things they cannot do, there are people from the Xuanyin Sect to help, and maybe even the Shenji Camp can help.
Yan Yunchu was also filled with fear. If they did not find out the truth about the death of Yunxi's niece, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the Yang family, leading to a rift between the Yanyun Sect and the Yang family.
Not only that, this matter also involves Cangwu Palace.
It's like killing three birds with one stone. It's really a good strategy.
Fortunately, they found some clues!
"Sister, I heard from Dad that they are going to send someone to the capital to investigate the matter of Chan Mengxiang." Jiang Jinzhou rolled his eyes and smiled and came over, "Sister, I want to go too, do you want to go with me?"
Lin Yulu tapped him and said jokingly, "Your father didn't let you go, so you came to find me?"
Jiang Jinzhou chuckled, not feeling embarrassed at all about being exposed.
"Sister, please go with me. Senior Brother is very busy all day long. He definitely doesn't have time."
"Dad said that the people from the Xuanyin Sect are coming with great force, and he is worried about me going out alone. If you were here, Dad would definitely be relieved."
"Sister, go ahead, I haven't been to the capital yet, just accompany me!" Jiang Jinzhou pulled her and acted coquettishly.
