Chapter 72: Bad Chess Player



The Palace Master and Xiao Yuan nodded, and the former said, "The faction and the main quest remain unchanged. The side quest is to eradicate the Zheng family."

Xiao Yuan said, "The main quest has been changed to protecting the Southern Dynasty, and the side quests are the same as the Palace Master."

The later the copy progresses, the more consistent the teammates' goals become. This is within Zhang Yuanqing's expectations. Xiaoyuan and the Palace Master are both on his side, and they are both the masters, unlike the saints who left midway.

In the end, the enemies were nothing more than the Zheng family, the imperial teacher, and the Northern Dynasty. Zhang Yuanqing supported the table with one hand and held up a small speaker. "The plot has come to this point, and everyone's tasks overlap. There is no need to delay any further. Linxia City is about to be lost. I plan to launch a surprise attack on the Zheng family tonight."

Scout Guan Ya frowned: "How do you know that Linxia will soon be lost?"

Yuanshi's tone and expression were very firm.

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at her and said in a tone of "women shouldn't ask about men's work": "Don't ask about the work of the star officials."

He looked around at everyone and said, "Now let's start formulating a battle plan."

In the hall, Guan Ya, Hong Ji Ge, Xie Lingxi, Jiang Jingwei, Sun Miaomiao and the Queen were all perked up and entered into a combat meeting state.

Zhang Yuanqing said solemnly: "If we want to successfully eliminate the Zheng family, we must first keep the city defense army and the Imperial City Division of the Zheng family faction out of the city. They will not have time to rescue the Zheng family."

"Tonight, members of the Qinglong Gang will set fire to Guangping Street, Xiaguang Street, and Chengle Street in the inner city to attract the attention of the city defense forces."

"The Yang family's army will sneak out of the city during the day, and at night, they will disguise themselves as the Northern Dynasty army to attack the city. At that time, I will let the refugees outside the city cooperate and shout that the Northern Dynasty army is attacking, so as to attract more city defense troops."

"As for the Imperial City Army, the royal family will come out to stop them. We will lock them up in the palace and delay them for us for a while."

Guangping Street, Xiaguang Street and Chengle Street are all street districts where high-ranking officials and dignitaries gather.

Ling Xi frowned and said, "The Qinglong gang set fire to the inner city? Isn't this just courting death?"

"They really are sending themselves to die." Zhang Yuanqing had no expression on his face and whispered, "They are willing to die."

Xie Lingxi pursed his lips and did not ask any further questions.

Zhang Yuanqing continued: "The next action is the most important. According to my deduction, we need to kill Zheng Wenhan within a quarter of an hour, otherwise the plan will fail."

"Guan Ya, tell everyone your investigation report first."

Guan Ya nodded and took over the topic: "According to my investigation, Zheng Wenhan's mansion has many guest officials, including three peak saints and nine ordinary saints. Recently, Zheng Wenhan has strengthened the security of the nine mansions and has drawn an army from the city defense army Jihuangcheng Division to guard Zheng's mansion. The general of this army is a peak saint."

"Five peak saints and nine ordinary saints. If there are ordinary saints among the troops that are transferred, the number of saints in the Zheng Mansion will exceed fifteen."

Brother Hongji looked at his teammates one by one, calculated in his mind, and said with a relaxed brow, "We have three peak saints, Yuanshi, Xiaoyuan and Palace Master, six ordinary saints, plus the masters of the Azure Dragon Gang. We are no worse than the Zheng family."

Zhang Yuanqing shook his head: "No, I will not participate in the hunting operation tonight. I will stay in Tianji Tower to contain the disciples of the national teacher."

Brother Hongji then remembered that there was Tianji Tower, and immediately grinned: "If you don't come, how can we win?"

What he just did was a rough assessment. If one really wants to make a strict calculation, levels 4 and 5 are both ordinary saints, but a level 5 saint can easily crush a level 4 saint. After all, not everyone is called Yuanshi Tianzun who can fight against several people of the same level alone or fight against those of higher levels.

Queen Xie Lingxi is a level 4 early stage saint and can basically only play a supporting role.

The ones who can really fight are actually Guan Ya, Sun Miaomiao, Jiang Jingwei and the high-level saints of the Qinglong Gang, and their number is probably limited. If so, even if the guests of the Yang family take action, without Yuanshi Tianzun, their chances of winning are slim.

Jixue Zhang Yuanqing said: "Don't worry, mature star officials will always have a way, I will find some reinforcements for you."

Since he didn't say anything, everyone tactfully stopped asking.

Sun Miaomiao suddenly said: "Have you forgotten the national teacher? Although he cannot leave the Tianji Tower, he can control the Yin corpse spirit servant to take action."

Facing the gazes from his teammates, Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said, "The state master is not in the right state right now, and he cannot use his full strength. He is a level 8 master, and under restrictions, he should only be able to exert level 7 combat power, and a level 7 master can command no more than two master-level Yin corpses and spirit servants.

"Boss Duan can handle it alone."

Sun Miaomiao questioned, "How can Gang Leader Duan, who is a fire master, deal with spirit servants?"

Among serious practitioners, the Fire Master has no effective means to attack spirit servants.

Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said, "Don't ask what the star officials do."

Jiang Jingwei tilted his head and pondered for a long time: "If the national teacher chooses to control the Yin corpses and spirit servants of the saint level, there should be a lot of them.%

Brother Red Chicken said unhappily: "That's even better. Duan Gang can overwhelm the whole stadium by himself."

From this we can see that Brother Red Chicken has a higher IQ than Jingwei.

Jingwei's fire master is purer than Hongji's.

She is worthy of being the daughter of the contemporary God of Fire.

Then, everyone discussed the battle plan in detail. After confirming it, Xiaoyuan looked at her lover and asked, "How many days have you stayed in Tianji Tower? What have you found?"

Zhang Yuanqing touched his chin, "I have two guesses. One is that the national master is refining a Yin corpse, and the combat power has reached the ninth level of the Yin corpse, so he needs the national dragon energy to suppress and control it. The second is that in order to get promoted, the national master tried to refine himself into some kind of powerful Yin-blocking object, but Jinwu wanted to transform himself into a Yin object, which is like playing with fire, so he needs dragon energy to reconcile Yin and Yang."

"I can't get close to the place where the national teacher is in seclusion, but based on my understanding of the Night Wandering God, it should be there." Zhang Yuanqing said calmly.

It is extremely difficult for the Night Wandering God to control a Yin Corpse that is stronger than himself. When Zhao Chenghuang was still in the Extraordinary Realm, controlling a fourth-level Yin Corpse was already conspicuous.

"After all, the extraordinary is the starting stage of the spiritual realm walker, and it is already so difficult, let alone the master level. The master stage level is an iron rule.

Fighting against a higher-level opponent is as difficult as ascending to heaven, and killing someone higher-level than you actually are is basically a pipe dream. Even though Duobao Tianzun is covered in treasures, he doesn't dare to say that he can defeat a national master at the peak of level eight.

It is even more difficult for an eighth-level national master to control a ninth-level Yin corpse than for Zhang Yuanqing to control the five-gourd golden dragon.

Sun Miaomiao nodded repeatedly: "I think so too. I don't remember that the promotion from level 8 to level 9 required the assistance of dragon energy. The national teacher is definitely not following the serious way of the Sun Wandering God. He is likely to have refined himself into a monster, just like Princess Yin Yao."

"We'll discuss the matter of the Imperial Master later." Zhang Yuanqing said in a serious tone, "Before the operation, no one should go out, lest they be killed one by one by assassins arranged by the Imperial Master. In addition, we must also guard against the possibility of the Zheng family's surprise attack on the Yang Mansion."

How do I know the bandits will learn from me? Although the national teacher and the Zheng family are currently seeking stability.

He looked at Jiang Jingwei again: "Jingwei, come with me for a while."

Leave Yang Mansion.

Zhang Yuanqing controlled the corpse and took a simple carriage to the residence of Zhao Kai, the Prince of Yongyan.

Zhang Yuanqing handed the gold medal that Yang Zheng brought out of the palace to the driver, and then he walked around the curtain, holding a small trumpet and said, "Go knock on the door and ask Zhao Kai to come out to see me. Remember not to speak out."

The driver respectfully took the oval-shaped pure gold medal bestowed by the emperor, dismounted hurriedly and ran towards the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

The doorman came over following the sound, listened to the coachman's retelling, took a look at the carriage, quickly closed the door, and returned to report.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Kai, with a big belly and fat all over his body, came out of the mansion alone.

"Your Majesty." Zhao Kai stood outside the car and whispered tentatively.

"Uncle Wang, let's get in the car and talk." Zhang Yuanqing responded indifferently.

The obese Zhao Kai quickly climbed onto the horse and got into the carriage. As expected, he saw the corpse that His Majesty had controlled that day, and a strange girl...

The carriage drove into the main road and moved forward at a neither fast nor slow pace.

Zhang Yuanqing said, "Uncle Wang, this is the beauty Chu from my harem."

"Which hunter's daughter did Your Majesty bring back during the autumn hunt?" He nodded slightly towards Jiang Jingwei.

As a prince, he has a high status and does not need to flatter a "beauty".

Zhang Yuanqing changed the subject: "She is also an assassin arranged by the Divine Sharp Army to be beside me."

Zhao Kai's fat-covered muscles suddenly bulged.

"Don't be nervous. Miss Chu has completely fallen in love with me after having sex with me."

Zhang Yuanqing's tone from his trumpet was somewhat proud. "It was because of her risking her life to save me that I was able to escape from the palace from Zheng Wenhan's assassination. Now I will take you to meet the remnants of the Shenrui Army and recruit them for my own use."

Zhao Kai's expression instantly became solemn, his brows furrowed. Jiang Jingwei beside him asked curiously: "What is a cloud of rain?"

Zhang Yuanqing squinted at her and said, "Go back and check your computer yourself."

Jiang Jingwei said "Oh" and turned away and put the matter aside. It was impossible to check the computer. As for anything related to study, don't even think about letting her take the initiative in this life.

In comparison, the strategy is more interesting. Jiang Jingwei suddenly thought of something and frowned, "But I don't know where the Shenrui Army is hiding."

"The village where your family lives is a secret base of the Shenrui Army. After you entered the palace, your father left the village, but his departure was a false illusion to deceive the court. There are other members of the Shenrui Army lurking in the village, always keeping an eye on your empty house. This is what I observed through the spirit servant a few days ago." Zhang Yuanqing said.

Seeing that Jiang Jingwei still didn't understand, he hinted, "Have you forgotten your mission?"

Jiang Jingwei then remembered that Lady Chu's main mission was to monitor Zhao Shun's movements and report to the Shenrui Army regularly.

In her inherited memories, there was no way to contact the Divine Sharp Army, so how could she report to the Divine Sharp Army?

Combined with the identity information of Miss Chu, the answer can be easily revealed.

"There are members of the Divine Sharp Army in the village. As long as you go home, you will naturally attract the attention of the Divine Sharp Army members."

Chu Jiang Jingwei admired her and said: "You are really amazing."

At this time, Zhao Kai, who had been thinking for a long time, asked: "Your Majesty, how sure are you?"

Zhang Yuanqing did not give a direct answer, but smiled and said, "The Shenrui Army is a brave and fierce army with firm beliefs. Even after more than ten years, they still want to avenge me. This shows how important General Wu Xin is to the Xiu Army in their hearts."

"As long as you tell them the truth about what happened, they may not give up their revenge on us, but they will definitely target Zheng Wenhan first."

Zhao Kai thought about it and felt that it made sense. He said, "That's true. Suddenly, his expression froze, and a large amount of blood flowed from the corners of his eyes, nostrils, lips, and ears. His pupils instantly dilated."

"Boom

Zhao Kai's body tilted and fell into the carriage, and he died in front of Zhang Yuanqing and Jiang Jingwei.

"This." Jiang Jingwei was stunned. "Dead?

Zhang Yuanqing's face darkened.

Tianji Tower.

The Imperial Master picked up the black piece that had blocked the white piece's chance of survival. He did not pick up the piece, but instead put his hand back into his mind and said calmly, "Your Majesty has lost."

"After three days of teaching, you have turned out a terrible chess player. Your Majesty has no talent for playing chess."

Zhang Yuanqing looked coldly at the Imperial Master who was sitting cross-legged like a hermit and said in a deep voice, "I didn't know that the Imperial Master also knew the art of killing with curses."

The Imperial Master said indifferently: "It's just external force..."

Zhang Yuanqing stretched out his hand and slashed, destroying the chessboard, and said coldly, "I am tired, I won't see you off."

After returning to Yang Mansion, Jiang Jingwei anxiously told his teammates what had happened. Guan Ya and others had actually guessed Yuanshi's actions. After all, he had said that the Qinglong Gang could be a help, so why not the Shenrui Army?

The national teacher's deduction was just discussed when tactics were just discussed, but we didn't have time to do it.

Now that Zhao Kai is dead and his plan has failed, he has nothing to worry about. . .

Guan Ya said worriedly: "Let's put tonight's plan on hold. We don't have enough experts. Besides, since the Imperial Master cursed Zhao Kai to death, it means he has seen through our plan."

The Yin Corpse Zhang Yuanqing said calmly, "The plan is proceeding as usual! We have no way out."
