Chapter 389 Is Qingshan Sect so powerful?
The black shadow's fingers kept tapping on the armrests of the rattan chair, and based on Zong Tangjian's description, he formed a rough image in his mind.
He was wearing fluttering white clothes, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand holding a sword with the tip of the sword slightly pointed. He looked insolent but not arrogant.
The black shadow couldn't help but say, "This Dayu Dao Sect actually has such a sword cultivator? This is the invincible sword intent..."
The black shadow has already constructed the image of Cheng Yuejie. It is normal that Zong Tangjian cannot win, but he still cannot accept the straightforward and old-fashioned name of Invincible Sword Intent.
"This Cheng Yuejie... could it be that she is the disciple of the man who broke the Supreme Ruthless Sword Intent, and because she heard about the Sword-Asking Ceremony, she specially sent her own disciple to test us?" The black shadow's fingers moved back and forth on the armrests of the rattan chair, somewhat unsure about the development of the Sword-Asking Ceremony.
That year, the Sword Dao Sect attempted to establish the Sword Gate with the Sword Pillar as its center. Emperor Yu personally smashed the Sword Pillar into pieces, some large and some small. The sword pillar fragment in the hands of the Sword Dao Half-Immortal was the largest known piece.
The original intention of this Sword-asking Ceremony was to divert attention. If there was a chance, it was not impossible to find the sword pillar fragments somewhere in the cold realm.
But the black shadow did not intend to succeed. The target of the sword pillar fragment was too big and the impact was too far-reaching. Dayu's party must still be paying attention to Hanjing. If he tried too hard to find the sword pillar at this time, it would not be so easy to stop.
Hanzhou's deployment was to use the Sword-Asking Ceremony and the sword-fighting prodigy of the late Great Wilderness to draw Dayu's attention to the sword pillar fragments and relatively reduce Dayu's attention from Yanzhou.
But the sudden appearance of Cheng Yuejie and the possible existence of a powerful swordsman behind her made Black Shadow feel that the incident in Hanzhou might have other developments.
At this time, his subordinates brought information about Cheng Yuejie.
"A disciple of Qingshan Sect?"
After reading Cheng Yuejie's information, the black shadow's head began to spin.
"What is this Qingshan Sect... a branch of a super sword sect? Or... the place where a great sword master fell? Their ancestor was... what level of cultivation was he? He should be at the Du Jie stage."
The person in charge of collecting intelligence hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Qingshan Sect is a third-rate small sect. Its ancestor is also the founder of Qingshan Sect. He only broke through the fusion stage in the past ten years. It was said that there was no possibility of breaking through the fusion stage before."
"...Are you investigating the wrong person?"
The person in charge of collecting intelligence explained, "It's Cheng Yuejie, but I also found out something else. Nine years ago, this deployment of Xiang Mo was converted by one man and one sword, and thousands of ghosts were converted. It is said that..."
The man hesitated for a moment and then said, "Is the body of the Xiang Mo the same as the current situation of Han Jing?"
The shadow crushed the armrest of the rattan chair, his face filled with astonishment, "Are you sure?"
“This, that Xiangmo’s body is being sealed in the Tianxu Tower in Ganzhou. It costs a lot to comprehend the Xiangmo’s body, so almost no one in Ganzhou has ever comprehended the Xiangmo’s body,” the man gestured with his fingers.
Simply put, those who have no money cannot afford to comprehend, and those who have money don’t need to.
The black shadow paced back and forth in front of the rattan chair with his hands behind his back. He stopped several times and raised his fingers as if wanting to say something, but finally put them down and said nothing.
"Just say something, I'm still waiting for work."
The black shadow held his forehead and sighed, a light flashed in his eyes, "It seems that Cheng Yuejie is the disciple of the person who broke the Supreme Merciless Sword Intention. That person is also the one who killed the Xiangmo."
“Even if that person is not from Tianxu Tower, he must have a close relationship with Tianxu Tower. Otherwise, there is no reason for him to appear in Ganzhou, let alone in Risheng City.”
"If that sword master is related to Tianxu Tower, then he must have had other purposes in mind to break through the cold realm. He must also have other purposes in letting Cheng Yuejie, a sword master, go to the Sword Questioning Ceremony."
"Cheng Yuejie is a sword genius with invincible sword intent, but she arrived at the Sword-asking Ceremony so late."
The shadow raised his head slightly, "It's too late, and it happened to arrive when the people I arranged attracted Dayu's attention."
The person in charge of collecting intelligence hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "So Tianxu Tower is intentionally cooperating with us?"
"...No, it's not that Tianxu Tower is cooperating with us, but our plan collides with Tianxu Tower's original plan," the black shadow said calmly after thinking for a while, "The Yanzhou plan was just a temporary idea of ours, and the cold realm was broken before this."
"Whatever the purpose of Tianxu Tower is, they must not have accomplished it yet. They broke the cold realm in such a high-profile way... No, what they want to do cannot be kept low-key. The purpose of breaking the cold realm is to wait for the opportunity and let Dayu monitor the cold realm until Dayu becomes lax."
"Planning ahead without rushing, this is the consistent working style of Tianxu Tower."
There was a gleam in the black shadow's eyes, and he felt relieved that he had seen through the matter.
The person in charge of gathering intelligence was somewhat puzzled. "According to what you said, Tianxu Tower will most likely wait for decades, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years before taking action. This won't conflict with our current Sword-asking Ceremony, right?"
The black shadow shook his head, "The conflict is huge. I think Tianxu Tower's target is probably the fragments of the sword pillar."
"I'm afraid Tianxu Tower thinks that our Sword-asking Ceremony will cause Dayu to increase surveillance of Hanjing, which may lead to Dayu searching for the sword pillar fragments, increasing the risk of taking the sword pillar fragments away."
The man thought it was indeed the case, "But now the Sword-asking Ceremony has already begun, what should we do..."
The man paused and then added awkwardly, "What are you still doing about Zhuozhou?"
When it comes to this, the black shadow feels awkward and uncomfortable all over.
The Immortal Palace and Tianxu Tower are in a very ambiguous situation.
I understand you and you understand me. We don't need to meet. We can just follow our tacit understanding.
Every action taken by Tianxu Tower is advancing the plan of the Immortal Palace and paving the way for the Immortal Palace. Maybe Tianxu Tower does not know the real purpose of the Immortal Palace, but Tianxu Tower knows the needs of the Immortal Palace.
On the other hand, looking at the actions of their Immortal Palace, they only thought that every step they took was causing trouble for Tianxu Tower. They didn't operate well enough, which led to the collapse of Yuanluo Sect. Tianxu Tower worked hard to shake up the connections and adjust the operation mode of Zhuozhou. Not only did they, the Immortal Palace, not contribute anything, but they were also secretly doing things to get a piece of the pie.
Tianxu Tower spent a huge price and took huge risks to bring down the super sect, but they are still thinking about themselves and any move they make will cause trouble for Tianxu Tower.
He nodded to both of these operations. He even arranged the Sword-Asking Ceremony and the sword-fighting genius at the end of the Great Wilderness himself.
This is really embarrassing.
"What do you think... Tianxu Tower needs?" the black shadow asked after a moment of hesitation.
"...Uh, let's take it easy and not mess around?"
The black shadow was speechless for a moment.
