In such a situation, sending out a martial artist at the peak of the Grandmaster realm is somewhat like using a forty-meter-long sword to trim fingernails.
However, if the other party's target is Feng Qingyang from the Huashan Sect, then it's a different story.
"Young Master Wuhen?"
Meanwhile, Yaoyue, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly as she listened to what Chu Qinghe and Dongfang Bubai were saying, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Finally, Qu Feiyan cleverly recounted her analysis with Chu Qinghe the previous day, as well as their encounter with the Wuhen Prince in Nanyue City.
While Yaoyue was learning the whole story through Qu Feiyan, Dongfang Bubai glanced at the note in his hand and said, "However, I didn't even know that there was a master in the late stage of the Grandmaster realm hidden in the Huashan Sect. These people know about this, which means they have been planning this for a long time."
Seeing Dongfang Bubai frowning in thought, Chu Qinghe slowly walked into the courtyard, sat down, and said leisurely, "Don't think about it anymore. It's probably not aimed at the Sun Moon Sect."
Then, under the watchful eyes of the women, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "Judging from the fact that these people only injured but did not kill the people of Hengshan Sect, it can be seen that their original intention was not to eliminate Hengshan Sect or Huashan Sect, but to secretly control them. As for arranging that Wuhen Gongzi, it is probably to find an opportunity to trick Zhu Wushi later."
"Otherwise, if we wanted to target the Sun Moon Cult without knowing your current strength, it would be much easier to just send people to attack the Sun Moon Cult directly. Why go through all this trouble?"
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe stroked his chin and said, "However, the southwest region is so far from the capital. Coming all the way here to dig a pit for Zhu Wushi, I'm afraid this pit won't be small."
Xiao Zhao suddenly said, "But now that Young Master Wuhen has died at your hands, it means that the plan of the mastermind behind it has been ruined. If the problem is found out, won't they cause trouble for you, Young Master?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan, Dongfang Bubai, and Yaoyue all turned their attention to Chu Qinghe.
In response, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Don't even think about it. That Young Master Wuhen is at the peak of the Grandmaster realm. What does his life or death have to do with us?"
Therefore, having a low level of cultivation has its advantages.
At least sometimes, you can play the field and keep things under the radar, so even if you do something, no one will suspect you.
Listening to what Chu Qinghe said, Qu Feiyan suddenly realized, "That's right. I guess no one would have thought that the famous Wuhen Gongzi would die so miserably, being tricked to death by a first-class martial artist. Moreover, Wuhen Gongzi also sneaked over alone in the middle of the night. Now that the body is gone, it's probably impossible to find anything about him."
After listening to what Qu Feiyan said, Dongfang Bubai looked at Chu Qinghe and said, "Judging from the current situation, it is indeed as you analyzed yesterday. This time, it was not Zhu Wushi's doing."
As he spoke, a hint of surprise flashed in Dongfang Bubai's eyes as he looked at Chu Qinghe.
Although Chu Qinghe analyzed yesterday that the appearance of the Unmarked Young Master had nothing to do with Zhu Wushi.
But it was just Chu Qinghe's analysis.
The current situation involving the Hengshan and Huashan sects, from a certain perspective, confirms Chu Qinghe's deductions from yesterday.
Despite being in the remote town of Yushui, he could see things more clearly than Dongfang Bubai, which indeed surprised Dongfang Bubai.
Although, judging from the current situation, it is clear that the other party is not targeting Dongfang Bubai.
However, since the southwest region is within the territory of the Sun Moon Sect, the sudden appearance of this group of people of unknown origin made Dongfang Bubai wary of the movements of the Hengshan Sect.
After thinking it over, Dongfang Bubai flashed and rushed out of the courtyard.
As for Yaoyue, she remained calm and composed.
Unlike the Sun Moon Sect, whose greatest reliance is Dongfang Bubai, the Yihua Palace, as a top-tier power, relies on its Celestial Realm experts.
With a master of the Celestial Realm present, anyone who wants to take action against the Yihua Palace will have to think twice.
.........
Meanwhile, to the south of the Ming Dynasty.
Surrounded by mountains, there is a canyon that stretches for hundreds of miles, with layers of rock and rarely visited by people.
At the entrance of this canyon, a ten-zhang-tall boulder stands beside the entrance, its three large characters "Xiuyu Valley" seemingly written in blood, making it exceptionally eye-catching.
On the lower right of this boulder, there is also a slightly smaller vertical character.
"Unauthorized trespassers shall die!"
Behind this Embroidered Jade Valley, there sits a series of magnificent palaces and pavilions.
This is the location of the Yihua Palace, which has ruled over the area west of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Although it was already the dead of winter, the climate inside the Yihua Palace was like springtime, with hundreds of flowers blooming in competition.
Even the air itself carries a faint floral fragrance.
As one of the few top-tier forces in the Ming Dynasty, the number of disciples in Yihua Palace has not been as large as that of top-tier forces like Wudang and Shaolin over the years.
However, the number of participants was nearly ten thousand.
At this moment, in this palace, many disciples moved gracefully with light steps, and each of them had a radiant complexion.
Even when out in public, she's a beauty who can easily capture a man's heart.
At this moment, beside a pavilion in the middle of a lake within the Yihua Palace, a woman sat leaning against the railing, holding a scroll in her fair, jade-like right hand.
The woman wore a white dress, and although her hair was simply styled in a lily bun, it perfectly complemented her stunningly beautiful face.
If Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan were here at this moment, they would surely notice that this woman's eyebrows and eyes bear a striking resemblance to Yao Yue's.
However, compared to Yaoyue, the woman's eyebrows and eyes lacked some of the coldness and aloofness, and instead possessed more liveliness and agility.
She is Lianxing, the second palace master of Yihua Palace and the younger sister of Yaoyue, who is also a mid-stage Grandmaster on both the Baihua Ranking and the Grandmaster Ranking under Baixiaosheng.
