"Can you explain it more clearly?" Lu Chen thought for a moment and asked again.
"Okay." Perfected Lord Tianlan seemed to be very straightforward and said, "The reason for the whole thing is like this: Our Zhenxianmeng has been developing for a thousand years and is now the strongest sect alliance in the vast cultivation world of the divine continent. There's no need to hide this and there's no need to be polite. However, the world is big and there are many heroes. You can say that our Zhenxianmeng can cover the sky with one hand, but outside of Zhenxianmeng, there are actually many sects and powerful cultivators that are not weak. "
"And, the Blood Wing Sect is such a sect."
"The Blood Wing Sect is a cultivation sect but there are actually only five people in the sect. They are called the Blood Wing Five Devils. They don't take in disciples and travel the world in groups. These five people have the surnames Zhang, Zhu, Zhou, Rui and Li. Their talents and cultivation are all considered good and they have made extraordinary achievements in the past few years and made a name for themselves. "
"Blood Wing Five Devils?" Lu Chen thought for a moment and then nodded slowly and said, "I've heard of these five people before. I heard that they have always been in the East Sea. Although their names also have the word 'devil' in them, they had conflicts with the Devil Cult in the past and fought a few times. They have a very high reputation among the people. Because the five of them have high cultivation, they give the Devil Cult a headache. "
"That's about it," Perfected Lord Tianlan said.
Lu Chen looked at him and frowned. "If that's the case, aren't these five people fine? Why would they …"
Perfected Lord Tianlan said lightly, "Because our Zhenxianmeng's forces have expanded to the East Sea." He smiled and said to Lu Chen with a very amiable expression, "Under our Zhenxianmeng, we don't allow such stubborn and stubborn cultivators to exist."
Lu Chen: "… Alright."
Perfected Lord Tianlan continued, "Actually, these five people have had some achievements in their careers in the past. They are proud and arrogant, and because of their high cultivation and reputation, they don't think much of our Zhenxianmeng. So, at first, we sent people to take them in, but they refused. Left with no choice, we could only deal with them. You see, they are no match for us … "
"Nonsense!" Lu Chen rolled his eyes at this damn baldy and snappily said, "Those five guys are at most Yuanying Stage. Your Immortal Alliance has a lot of Yuanying Stage cultivators and six Soul Formation Perfected Monarchs who stand at the peak of the cultivation world. Who the hell can beat you guys!"
Perfected Lord Tianlan was not angry at Lu Chen's sudden outburst of vulgarities. Instead, the smile on his face deepened. He said with a smile, "Well, although what you said is not pleasant to hear, it is the truth. At that time, the old man Tie Hu was in charge of the overall situation in the East Sea. I heard that under his command, the Bloody Winged Five Devils suffered a lot, so they quieted down not long after. "
"Tie Hu?" Lu Chen suddenly thought of something. He frowned and said, "Is it that Perfected Lord Tie Hu from the Heavenly Law Hall?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded and said, "That's him. Under the suppression of our Zhenxianmeng, the Bloody Winged Five Devils are now beaten to the point that they can't fight back and are at their wits' end. However, recently, I suddenly received a secret letter from the Zhang and Rui Devils. In the letter, the two of them expressed their intentions. They only said that they have never intended to be enemies with Zhenxianmeng, and that the enmity over the years is just a misunderstanding. They also said that they have not given up on their ambitions and still intend to serve Zhenxianmeng. "
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "They want to rely on us?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled and said, "Exactly. As the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. There are still many smart people in this world. However, the troublesome thing is that the old man Tie Hu is strict and old-fashioned. After being in charge of the Heavenly Law Hall for many years, he has a bad temper and will not easily change his mind. Back then, the Bloody Winged Five Devils did not give him any face. Therefore, even if the Five Devils have expressed their intention to surrender and negotiate peace, when it comes to him, they still end up being chased by Zhenxianmeng and beaten half to death every day. "
"No wonder they came to look for you. In this Cultivation World, as long as Zhenxianmeng wants to suppress them, it will really be hard for them to continue living in this world." Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "You only mentioned Zhang and Rui. What about the other three devils?"
"This is the fun part." Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled and said, "Many years ago, the Bloody Winged Five Devils became sworn brothers with different surnames. They are said to be as close as brothers. They are determined to unite and rule the world and make great achievements. However, at this critical moment, the five of them originally agreed to retire and hide from the world when they saw that the overall situation was already out of control. Unexpectedly, the two of them came to look for me in secret. They said that they yearned for greater achievements and that their ambition for fame and glory had not given up. They were willing to serve me and begged me to take them in. "
Lu Chen sighed and said, "Do the other three devils know about this?"
"They probably don't know yet. That's about it." Perfected Lord Tianlan flung his wide sleeves and said indifferently, "Help me plan how we should deal with this matter."
Lu Chen closed his eyes slightly and placed one hand on his thigh. His fingers moved slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes and said to Perfected Lord Tianlan with a calm expression, "In my opinion, there are two important points in this matter."
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded and said, "Speak."
Lu Chen said, "Firstly, Perfected Lord Tiehu is the person who is in charge of this matter on behalf of Zhenxianmeng after all. If we act rashly, will we anger him and face the retaliation of the other forces in the Immortal Alliance?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan remained silent and only looked at Lu Chen. Lu Chen continued, "Secondly, the Bloody Winged Five Devils have made great achievements in the past and have a high reputation among the people. If the Immortal Alliance oppresses them too much, there will be a lot of criticism."
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded and said, "So?"
Lu Chen was silent for a while and said, "In my opinion, this matter should be done in two steps. Firstly, you only find someone to secretly spread Zhang and Rui's secret letter. Then, the other three devils will know that they have betrayed their brothers and there will be enmity between them. The brotherhood will never be complete and the name of the Bloody Winged Five Devils will naturally come to an end. The people in the world may think that we, Zhenxianmeng, are suppressing them but at the same time, many people will definitely think that the five of them are fighting among themselves. At that time, there will be guesses, criticisms, insults, and disappointment. Everyone will be covered in dirty water and stink together. There will be no need to blame each other. "
Perfected Lord Tianlan pondered for a while and said with a smile, "This is a good plan but it's a little sinister."
Lu Chen sneered and said, "Thanks to you sending me to the Devil Cult when I was young, I learned these sinister skills and came back."
Perfected Lord Tianlan laughed and said, "Very good, very good! Come on, continue. "
Lu Chen said again, "Since the brotherhood of the five devils is broken, they will lose the people's trust. Since the five brothers are split up, they can naturally be manipulated at will. If you see that they are still useful, you can step forward bravely at this time and announce to the world that the two devils Zhang and Rui have renounced darkness for light and are willing to die for the righteous path and righteousness of the common people in the world. You cherish talent and are willing to bear the crime of tarnishing your reputation. You should run around and call for them to be your subordinates. It will be a good show like a hero rescuing a beauty, and your reputation in the cultivation world will soar. "
Perfected Lord Tianlan clapped and laughed. "Great plan! Great plan! However, people will probably see that they will bear the crime of being tarnished while we only benefit from it, right? "
Lu Chen sneered and said, "There are so many people in the world. Even in the world of cultivation, there are still many idiots. Since you saved those people, there will naturally be people praising you as a great philanthropist. As for the other smart people who can see the truth, half of them will not ask for a rebuff and the other half will probably feel that it doesn't matter. "
"Moreover," Lu Chen paused for a moment, and his expression seemed to be a little emotional. He clicked his tongue and sighed twice, then said indifferently, "With your status, power, and reputation, even if some ants talk about you, how could you possibly care?"
"Therefore, even though this plan is sinister and a little shameless, as long as you have the reputation and strength, you can naturally do whatever you want without any scruples. What do you think? "Lu Chen asked Perfected Lord Tianlan instead.
Perfected Lord Tianlan retracted his smile and looked at Lu Chen. A moment later, he said with a serious expression, "Indeed, I was right about you. You're born to be my successor!"
