Half a month later.
In the sky above the main city of the Wind Cloud Villa, a black-robed man appeared after a huge disturbance of the yin and yang energies.
"Looks like I'm one step ahead." Looking at the main city, which was not too crowded, Su Yu smiled indifferently.
At this moment, the Saint Lady should still be on her way, like the other forces.
Of course, Su Yu was one step ahead, so he would not be idle.
He came to the local Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce's intelligence department.
"I want to buy information about the Emperor Killing Sword," Su Yu said to the shopkeeper who was sending off the guest.
The shopkeeper sized Su Yu up, not surprised at all. He said, "Recently, many people have been asking about the Emperor Killing Sword, so the news must have spread. You can find out about it with a little effort, so why waste your money?"
Su Yu said indifferently, "That's because I want to buy information that has not yet circulated in the market. Besides, money is not a problem."
The shopkeeper's eyes flashed. He stared at Su Yu for a while, then nodded slightly. "Alright, please follow me to the inner hall."
Sitting down in the inner hall, the shopkeeper held up three fingers. "Our information is divided into …"
"Top secret, private secret, and ordinary secret," Su Yu answered for him. He then threw a bag of money on the table and said, "I want top secret."
He had already learned the information level of the intelligence department of the White Dragon City's Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce, so he was familiar with it.
The shopkeeper was stunned. He put down his finger resentfully and smiled sheepishly. "So you are a regular customer of the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce. However, the information about the Emperor Killer Sword is valuable. Even ordinary information is valuable. If it is a top secret …"
Glancing at the 100 top-grade divine stones in his pocket, the shopkeeper shut up obediently.
"Alright, it looks like you are determined to get top secret information. I will not hide it from you anymore," the shopkeeper said in a low voice. "First, I will give you a private secret information. Other than the Emperor Killing Sword, there is actually an Emperor Scabbard, which is used to seal the Emperor Killing Sword."
Su Yu raised his eyebrows. He had been thinking about how to subdue the Emperor Killing Sword. He had come to the Wind Cloud Villa to attend the Guqin Platform Wine Banquet because he wanted to hear the opinions of the other forces.
He did not expect to hear such shocking inside information about the Emperor Scabbard before he even started.
"What about the top-secret information?" Su Yu asked.
The shopkeeper said, "The top secret information is that the person who knows of the existence of this item has already been accepted as a disciple by the Palace Master of Qing Ming Manor. He calls himself Gu Xing, and he will personally attend this Zither Terrace Wine Banquet."
Su Yu remembered that the Green Netherworld Manor was one of the Five Great Influences of the South. In terms of overall power, it was above the Dustless Moon Faction.
That Green Underworld Manor Lord's strength had reached the middle stage of a Three Crown Emperor, and was extremely powerful.
Su Yu's gaze was deep and profound. It was as if he could see through the fog in front of him and see through the fragmented information.
In the end, the so-called top-secret information was leaked by others.
If he was the Palace Master of the Green Nether Mansion, he would rather wipe that disciple's memory than allow him to reveal the existence of the scabbard.
Now that the news had been leaked to the upper echelons, the higher-ups knew about it.
As the Palace Master of the Green Nether Mansion, his ability to control the situation should not be this weak. There must be a reason behind this.
After thinking for a long time, Su Yu fixed his attention on the disciple who called himself Gu Xing.
What kind of existence was the Lord of Green Hell Mansion? Ordinary people wouldn't even be able to meet him. How did Gu Xing get to meet with the Lord of Green Hell Mansion and be accepted as a disciple?
Perhaps there was an unknown exchange of benefits.
The most likely exchange of benefits was related to the information about the scabbard!
If he was Gu Xing, he would never reveal all the information about the scabbard before he obtained what he wanted. He would even erase the relevant memories, or he would be searched by the Palace Master of the Green Nether Mansion and be erased from the world.
Thinking from the perspective of the two, Su Yu figured out most of the truth.
Gu Xing had used the scabbard to exchange for the identity of the Palace Master of the Green Nether Mansion's disciple and to participate in the Wind and Cloud Alliance Meeting.
Then, the thing that Gu Xing wanted must be near the Wind Cloud Villa.
As for the memories related to the scabbard, Gu Xing must have given them to someone he trusted. After he obtained what he wanted, he would return the memories to Gu Xing. Then, Gu Xing would announce it to the public, create chaos, and take advantage of the chaos to escape with the thing he wanted.
If Zhan Wushuang and Hanxuan were here, they would definitely be shocked.
They had thought that their plan was flawless, but Su Yu had guessed most of it from a few words!
I don't need to wait for Gu Xing to announce the information about the scabbard to the public. I can just wait for him! Su Yu had a corresponding plan in his mind. Since Gu Xing's companion wants to return the memories to him, they must meet. If I keep an eye on Gu Xing, I will keep an eye on his companion.
After finishing his analysis, Su Yu stood up calmly and nodded. "The information is not bad."
After a pause, Su Yu said, "In addition, I want to know about the Dayu Empire. Do you have any?"
The shopkeeper said regretfully, "The Dayu Empire is in a state of isolation recently. No one is allowed to enter or leave. The black market we set up there is also sealed, so we can't send back any information. Elder, if you want to know anything, please leave your contact information. If there is any news, we will inform you immediately."
Seclude the country? That was reasonable. The Moon Worshipping Cult should still have many malignant tumors in the Dayu Empire. It was reasonable for Dongfang Xia to take the opportunity to say that all the obstacles had been cleared.
To Su Yu, this was good news.
Otherwise, if the news that Dongfang Xia was still alive spread to the Moon Worshipping Cult, he, the fake Moon Worshipping Cult Master, would be exposed immediately.
"Forget it. I'll come again next time," Su Yu said calmly.
After leaving the intelligence department, Su Yu came to a restaurant near the Wind Cloud Villa and observed it secretly.
The Wind Cloud Villa was located right above the main city. It was floating in mid-air, and the layout of the Yin and Yang geomancy was extremely varied.
A layer of hazy brilliance could be vaguely seen shrouding the whole villa, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
Su Yu's heart moved slightly, and he tried to see through it with his Transparent Eye.
At first glance, he could see the internal details of the Wind Cloud Villa.
However, the next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed into a strange scene. Su Yu couldn't tell which of the two scenes was the real interior of the Wind Cloud Villa.
After that, Su Yu tried several times, but the scene he saw was different every time. After repeating it thirty-six times, he finally saw the same scene twice.
Su Yu was secretly surprised. "Thirty-six layers of Yin and Yang changes. The creator of the Wind Cloud Villa must have mastered the Yin Yang technique."
Even with his Transparent Eye, he couldn't see through the internal details. The layout was really impressive.
Since he couldn't see through it, Su Yu looked around and tried to guess where Gu Xing's companions might be.
Gu Xing must be monitored by the Mansion Master of the Green Underworld Mansion, and every move he made couldn't escape his eyes.
Therefore, if his companions wanted to return his memories to him, they must be very clever and not attract the attention of the Mansion Master of the Green Underworld Mansion. Otherwise, all their efforts would be in vain.
Su Yu considered the problem from the perspective of his companions. How would they meet in the end?
For fifteen days, Su Yu wandered around in the vicinity, thinking about the possible locations and ways to meet.
With the arrival of the representatives of the great influences, there were more and more people in the vicinity of the Wind Cloud Villa. All kinds of people had complicated backgrounds, which made it more difficult to determine the identity of Gu Xing's companions.
However, after fifteen days of continuous thinking, Su Yu had a preliminary speculation.
"I hope they won't disappoint me," Su Yu said to himself.
Suddenly, the communication pendant on his waist rang. At this moment, there was only one person who could send him a message.
It was the Saint Lady!
"Tower Beyond Tower, I will only wait for you for two days. If you don't arrive in two days, I will attend alone." The Saint Lady booked a guest room in a restaurant near the villa. She then sent a message to the Baiyue Sect Master, who was nowhere to be found.
Putting down the communication pendant, the Saint Lady frowned. "He should be here soon, right? In this meeting of the five great influences, the Baiyue Sect is in the weakest position. I hope that guy can be tough and not embarrass the Baiyue Sect. "
While she was thinking, the jade pendant suddenly sent a message.
"Oh, I am at your door."
The Saint Lady was stunned. At my door?
Dong!
Before she could figure out what it meant, someone knocked on the door.
The Saint Lady was in disbelief. Her Fairy Crane was much faster than the Baiyue Sect's demonic beasts. How could he arrive at the same time as her?
No, she sent him a message as soon as she arrived at the Wind Cloud Villa, but he arrived immediately. This was enough to prove that he had been nearby for a long time.
When she opened the door, it was the Baiyue Sect Master!
"When did you arrive?" The Saint Lady asked in surprise.
Su Yu walked into the room and sat down casually. He said, "I've been here for a few days. What's wrong?"
A few days? The Saint Lady couldn't help but look at the Baiyue Sect Master. Then, she asked, "Are the other three great influences also here?"
"I don't know. I didn't pay much attention to them." Su Yu asked, "Why do you care about them? This time, the meeting of the five great influences is to discuss the Emperor Killing Sword. If there is anything, we can gather together tomorrow to discuss it. Why do you suddenly visit others? "
The Saint Lady was speechless.
How could he be so stupid?
"You don't think this meeting is really as simple as a discussion, do you?" The Saint Lady asked exasperatedly.
Su Yu nodded. "What else?"
His incompetent yet righteous look infuriated the Saint Lady. She suppressed her anger and said, "Didn't you think about it before coming? Now, the Dark Star Civilization is in turmoil because of the Emperor Killing Sword. At this moment, the five great influences are gathered for a meeting. How can it be as simple as a discussion? There must be a demand for an alliance. "
Su Yu looked as if he had suddenly realized something. He scolded, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
The Saint Lady glared at him. As the Baiyue Sect Master, he didn't even think about it, yet he blamed her for not reminding him clearly. It was unreasonable.
Su Yu said, "Then I'll pay a visit to the various factions right now and sound them out."
"Forget it, I'll go. You can just relax and do nothing!" The Saint Lady said angrily. Then, she slammed the door and left.
Su Yu touched his nose. Even she could guess that this meeting was not as simple as it seemed. How could he not know?
If he was right, it was true that they were looking for the Emperor Killing Sword together. However, the Master of the Wind Cloud Villa wanted to take the opportunity to combine the five great influences into an alliance of five factions.
As the number one influence in the south, it was far superior to the other four great influences.
