A month later, in a palace in Li Fire Holy Capital.
Zhong Shan and Wang Jingwen were playing Go. At the same time, they seemed to be waiting. Golden Roc and the others were quietly waiting on the side.
"Reporting!" A guard walked into the hall.
"Speak!" Zhong Shan gently placed a Go piece on the board.
"The Holy King sent me to report that Gongshu Zi has already sent an envoy to discuss the details of the matches!" the guard reported.
"Oh?" Zhong Shan looked at the guard.
"There will be a total of seven matches. The first two matches will be held in Phoenix Territory. The last five matches will be held in Yellow Springs Territory. The third match will be a match between Feng Shui Masters. Multiple Feng Shui Masters can participate. The seventh match will be between the Holy King and Gongshu Zi. The rest will be one-on-one. Gongshu Zi will announce the first two matches. The fourth, fifth, and sixth will be announced by the Holy King, "the guard said.
Wang Jingwen nodded, "That's fair!"
"What's Gongshu Zi's list?" Zhong Shan asked.
"The first match will be Blade Executioner. The second match will be Tian Yan!" the guard said.
"Zu Xian's Blade Executioner? Tian Yan? "Wang Jingwen thought for a moment.
"Nie Fanchen is really going to be a hands-off boss. He doesn't care about anything? "Zhong Shan smiled faintly.
"Zhong Shan, let me fight Tian Yan. I'll definitely strip him of his lifespan!" Hao Meili immediately said.
"You?" Zhong Shan pondered for a moment.
"Didn't we agree on this? What are you hesitating for? "Hao Meili anxiously asked.
"We agreed to help you deal with Tian Yan. But now that it's a one-on-one match, I'm worried about your safety!" Zhong Shan said.
Hearing Zhong Shan's concern, Hao Meili's anxiety eased a bit. She looked at Zhong Shan with a gentle expression and said, "Don't worry, Tian Yan can't hurt me. I'm competing with him in Word Curse. Moreover, Tian Yan is only Gu Xian, he's not much stronger than me. His Word Curse is definitely inferior to mine."
Looking at Hao Meili, Zhong Shan finally nodded and said, "Alright, but if you can't beat him, don't try to be brave. We'll think of a way to deal with him in the future!"
"En!" Hao Meili replied immediately.
Thus, it was decided to deal with Tian Yan.
"Saber Butcher?" Wang Jingwen looked at the guard.
"Yes, this person also came to Li Huo Sacred Capital!" The guard said.
"Oh? Who else? "Wang Jingwen's eyes lit up.
"A total of three people came this time. Dao Ren Tu, Jiang Chuan, and Lu Yu!" The guard said.
"Dao Ren Tu, Holy King Nie gave me information. I also know Jiang Chuan. Who is Lu Yu? Do you have any information about him?" Wang Jingwen asked.
"Lu Yu, this one just happens to know. I'll show you with a spell!" The guard said.
Then, he used a spell to condense the image of a handsome young man.
"Eh, that's Lu something?" Hao Meili cried out.
"Yes, that's Young Master Lu!" Golden Peng nodded.
In the image was the Young Master Lu who was bullied by Hao Meili and the Little Golden Dragon in Mortal City.
"This Lu Yu came with Jiang Chuan. Jiang Chuan is the main negotiator this time. Lu Yu came with him without a purpose, but he's a descendant of Gongshu Zi. Dao Ren Tu is in charge of their safety!" The guard said.
"It's easy to deal with an acquaintance, Holy King!" Wang Jingwen looked at Zhong Shan with a confident smile.
Zhong Shan looked at Wang Jingwen and finally nodded. "Then I'll leave this matter to you. If you need anything, just ask Nie Fanchen!"
"Yes!" Wang Jingwen said respectfully.
"All of you, cooperate with Wang Jingwen!" Zhong Shan turned to look at everyone.
"Yes!" Golden Peng and the others nodded.
Li Fire Sacred Capital, in another hall.
Three people stood in the hall.
Young Master Lu who was bullied by Hao Meili in Mortal City, Lu Yu.
Jiang Chuan who saved Lu Yu from Hao Meili.
There was also one who was dressed in blood-red clothes and had a murderous look in his eyes. He was playing with a blood-red saber in his hand. A cold smile appeared on his face. It was the Dao Ren Tu that Zhong Shan spoke of.
"Senior, how did that person called 'Golden Peng' sound you out?" Jiang Chuan asked.
"Golden Peng? He's a good Zu Xian. I lost to him! "Dao Ren Tu said with a smile.
"Lost? You're the strongest Zu Xian that the ancestor summoned. Is that Golden Peng really that powerful? "Lu Yu said anxiously.
Dao Ren Tu smiled.
"Senior, he lost on purpose!" Jiang Chuan laughed.
"Lost on purpose?" Lu Yu said in surprise.
"He tried to figure out my strength before the battle even started. Nie Fanchen is no longer the Ji Gongnie of the past. Why would I reveal my strength at this time? I only used ten percent of my strength and lost on purpose. However, I also saw through his strength! "Dao Ren Tu said confidently.
"If it's as expected, the opponent's name list should be here soon!" Jiang Chuan said with a smile.
Just as he finished speaking, a guard outside asked for an audience.
"The Holy King ordered me to hand over the challenge notice to you!" The guard left behind a notice and left.
The three took a look at the notice.
"Not bad. The first battle is Golden Peng and the second battle is Hao Meili?" Jiang Chuan laughed.
"Don't worry about Golden Peng. As for the second battle, who is this Hao Meili?" Dao Ren Tu asked doubtfully.
"Senior, it's enough if you can win the first battle. Hao Meili, I'll let the Martial Ancestor decide!" Jiang Chuan said.
"Then I'll return to Yellow Springs Weave immediately? Tell Gongshu Zi about this! "Dao Ren Tu said.
"Then I'll have to trouble Senior. Lu Yu and I are not important. Nie Fanchen won't make things difficult for us. We'll stay here for the time being and won't slow you down. In two months, the Martial Ancestor should be here. We'll meet again then!" Jiang Chuan said.
"Okay!"
Dao Ren Tu flew out with the notice.
One month later.
During this month, Zhong Shan didn't bother with the duel. Instead, he accompanied Ling 'er. Everything was arranged by Wang Jingwen.
"How's the arrangement?" Zhong Shan asked.
"It's all set up." Wang Jingwen smiled.
"Oh?"
"Nie Fanchen and Gongshu Zi are betting for the Patriarch position. As for me, I found Lu Yu through Nie Fanchen's network and made a small bet with him!" Wang Jingwen smiled.
"What are we betting on?"
"Of course, we're betting on the first battle. Golden Peng and Dao Ren Tu! "
"What's the wager?"
"If Golden Peng loses, we'll lose a Zu Xian artifact and Jiang Ziya's Deity Striking Whip!"
"Jiang Ziya agreed?"
"Nie Fanchen agreed. Jiang Ziya definitely knows about it. As for the other Zu Xian artifact, it's also from Nie Fanchen!"
"Two Zu Xian artifacts, one of which is the world-famous Deity Striking Whip. The wager is heavy enough. What about the other side? "
"Dao Ren Tu's blood saber. His blood saber is as important as his life!" Wang Jingwen smiled.
"Dao Ren Tu has already returned to the Yellow Springs Weave. Is Lu Yu also willing?" Zhong Shan smiled.
"Of course. When he heard about the Deity Striking Whip, his eyes turned green. Moreover, Golden Peng tested Dao Ren Tu and gave him the illusion that he would win. How could he not be willing? "Wang Jingwen smiled.
"What if they lose and refuse to admit it?" Golden Peng interrupted.
Wang Jingwen looked at Golden Peng and shook his head. "As long as you win, it doesn't matter if he admits it or not. I've already recorded their conversation in a memory crystal. I've also made tens of thousands of copies. Once you win, I'll spread them all over the Yellow Springs Weave! "
"That's just Lu Yu's side of the story. Dao Ren Tu won't admit it!" Golden Peng didn't understand.
"Naturally, Dao Ren Tu won't offer his blood saber. However, these words came from Gongshu Zi's descendants. I want to use Gongshu Zi's descendants to chill Dao Ren Tu's heart. I want to chill the hearts of the 'outsiders' who will help Gongshu Zi in the next few rounds," Wang Jingwen said solemnly.
"The hearts of people are the weakest. If you can control your opponent's heart, you can defeat them all!" Zhong Shan nodded.
Zhong Shan was such a person. Zhong Shan's strongest point wasn't his endless tricks, but his ability to control his opponents.
"Chill their hearts? Mister Wang, you're too ruthless! "Golden Peng laughed.
"Ruthless? This is just the beginning. Just wait and see. The best is yet to come! "Wang Jingwen laughed.
"This is just the beginning?" Golden Peng glared at Wang Jingwen. After a moment of silence, he shook his head. "Fortunately, I'm not your enemy!"
Nie Fanchen's study.
In front of him stood several important ministers. Among them were Guo Shi's father, Jiang Shang, and Marquis Shao Fei.
Nie Fanchen lightly tapped on the table. The ministers fell silent.
After a while, Nie Fanchen opened his mouth. "What do you all think?"
"Holy King, this Wang Jingwen is a rare talent!" Jiang Shang was the first to speak.
"He used your Deity Striking Whip as a wager. Aren't you angry at him?" Nie Fanchen laughed.
"Deity Striking Whip? It's just an external object. Why would Jiang Shang care about an inanimate object? If you can use this inanimate object to exchange for Wang Jingwen for the Holy King, Jiang Shang will gladly give it up! "Jiang Shang said very directly.
"Prime Minister Jiang is right. This Wang Jingwen's ability to judge the situation is indeed very strong. In such a short period of time, he was able to set up such a vicious' trap '. Although only a small part of it was revealed, the outcome is obvious." Marquis Shao Fei nodded.
"The Holy King wants this Wang Jingwen?" Guo Shi's father asked.
"Let's wait and see!" Nie Fanchen said indifferently.
Jiang Chuan and Lu Yu were in the main hall.
"Martial Uncle, do you think my wager this time was worth it? A Zu Xian artifact and a Deity Striking Whip. I've already recorded the conversation. Even if we can't get the Deity Striking Whip, we can get a Zu Xian artifact for free. They won't be able to deny it. "Lu Yu said excitedly.
"Everything is in our favor. But I still feel that something is wrong." Jiang Chuan shook his head.
"Martial Uncle, don't worry. I've already considered the outcome. Even if they lose, they'll be the ones asking for the blood blade. It's up to them whether Blade Killer gives it to them or not. Moreover, this is a sure-win situation!" Lu Yu advised.
