When Chu Xiu's identity was revealed, Guan Siyu was no less shocked than the others. This was because he really did not expect that Chu Xiu was also a member of the Devil Dao. He was actually Lin Ye.
Guan Siyu was able to discover Mei Qinglian's identity because Mei Qinglian had taken the initiative to use the Beauty Technique on Guan Siyu.
However, Chu Xiu did not reveal any flaws in front of Guan Siyu.
Moreover, Chu Xiu had officially joined the Hidden Devil Clan. To be precise, he had met Mister Lu when he was investigating the Pegasus Ranch's Qiu Zhensheng case. Therefore, in the beginning, Chu Xiu really had nothing to do with the Hidden Devil Clan.
Although Guan Siyu could also sense that Mei Qinglian was helping Chu Xiu, in his opinion, Mei Qinglian should have wanted to have more say in the Guanzhong torture room. Therefore, she was prepared to support Chu Xiu, who did not have a complicated background and did not have much experience. Guan Siyu did not think that Chu Xiu was also a member of the Devil Dao.
Fang Sha, who was at the side, had been in a daze since Guan Siyu had made his move. At this moment, he seemed to have recovered. He glared at Yang Gongdu and said, "Why didn't you tell me that Chu Xiu was actually a member of the Devil Dao?"
Yang Gongdu had even hidden this matter from him. Otherwise, Fang Sha would not have said those words to Chu Xiu at the beginning of the meeting.
Yang Gongdu said lightly, "If I had told you everything, why would you have chosen to tell Guan Siyu everything in public? You would have probably told everything to Guan Siyu in secret, right? How could this matter have blown up? "
Fang Sha's face revealed a trace of anger. He knew that he had been used by Yang Gongdu.
In Fang Sha's opinion, exposing Mei Qinglian's identity was just like getting rid of a malignant tumor for the Guanzhong torture room. It wasn't a big deal, and the Guanzhong torture room could handle it internally.
However, although Chu Xiu's strength was not at the Wu Dao Grand Master level, he was more famous in the Jianghu, and things were more difficult to deal with.
Fang Sha wasn't an idiot. He didn't really want to destroy the Guanzhong torture room, so if he found out about Chu Xiu's identity, he would definitely tell Guan Siyu in secret instead of saying it in front of everyone.
From the very beginning, Yang Gongdu had wanted to make use of him to blow up the matter!
Guan Siyu looked coldly at Yang Gongdu and said, "Speak, what exactly do you want?"
Yang Gongdu was known as the Poison Dragon Warrior. His methods were ruthless and he would not do anything without benefits. Everything he did had a purpose.
This time, he used Fang Sha to throw all the negative things about the Guanzhong torture room into the light. Guan Siyu couldn't think of anything else other than setting up the Guanzhong torture room and harming others without benefiting himself.
Yang Gongdu narrowed his eyes and said, "Hall Leader Guan, this is not a small matter. The Guanzhong torture room has taken in Mei Qinglian, the Holy Virgin of the Darkness Demon Faction, and Chu Xiu, a hidden rising star of the Diabolism. This is a big deal in the Jianghu. Think about the karma of the Yinmo bloodline and the people Chu Xiu has killed. Once his identity is exposed, trouble will come one after another. The Guanzhong torture room can't stop it! However, if you can stand on the Crown Prince's side and let the Guanzhong torture room merge with Eastern Qi and help the Crown Prince, I, Eastern Qi, will help you stop the messy things in the Jianghu. You, Guan Siyu, will still be the Hall Leader of the Guanzhong torture room. It won't be a problem even if you want to pass it on to your disciple or son! "
Hearing Yang Gongdu's words, everyone present understood Yang Gongdu's plan. He actually planned to seize the entire Guanzhong torture room!
Originally, the Guanzhong torture room had nothing to do with him. Whether Guan Siyu was bewitched or deliberately took in the people of the Diabolism, some things might be interesting, but it had nothing to do with Yang Gongdu.
However, with Yang Gongdu's intervention, the meaning of all this changed.
The Guanzhong torture room was located in the middle of the three countries. Since Guan Siyu became the Hall Leader of the torture chamber, she had always insisted on seeking a neutral position.
However, at the same time, the geographical location of the Guanzhong torture room was also very important. If any country obtained the Guanzhong torture room, it would be equivalent to having an additional bridgehead to attack the other two countries.
However, the Guanzhong torture room itself was not weak. Once someone forcibly attacked the Guanzhong torture room, not only would it attract strong resistance from the Guanzhong torture room, but it would also cause the other two countries to intervene. Therefore, under such circumstances, the three countries naturally formed a balance, and the Guanzhong torture room developed in this fragile balance.
However, others could not attack the Guanzhong torture room. What if the Guanzhong torture room surrendered to another country?
Yang Gongdu was the strategist of the Crown Prince, Lv Longji. If he could help the Crown Prince seize the Guanzhong torture room, with this great contribution, no one in the whole of Eastern Qi would be able to shake Lv Longji's position. Yang Gongdu would naturally have the merit to help the Crown Prince. After Lv Longji ascended the throne, he could use his skills as an emperor to his heart's content and fulfill his ambitions.
Guan Siyu squinted at Yang Gongdu and said coldly, "Surrender to Lv Longji and Eastern Qi? Yang Gongdu, I'm afraid you've long set your sights on the Guanzhong torture room. Do you know how much I've sacrificed for the Guanzhong torture room today? Now you're telling me this and threatening me to join Eastern Qi. Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?! "
Guan Siyu's aura was like a volcanic eruption. His aura soared into the sky and was extremely terrifying.
There were strong and weak Martial Dao masters. Qiao Liandong, the Yang family's patriarch, and Liu Hongye, who had died at the hands of Chu Xiu, were actually the weakest among the Martial Dao masters.
On the other hand, people like Zhen Yangzi and Xu Xing were considered quite strong.
Those who truly stood at the peak of this realm were people like Chenqing Di, Xuan Longzi, and Chu Wuji.
In the past, no one had thought that Guan Siyu could stand shoulder to shoulder with these people. Everyone thought that Guan Siyu was able to rank in the top ten of the Windcloud List because of his status.
In Xiaofan Heaven, Guan Siyu's attack had already shocked everyone. At this moment, Guan Siyu displayed his powerful aura without holding back. He could almost completely crush Fang Sha and Yang Gongdu. Even Mei Qinglian couldn't compare to him.
Although Yang Gongdu was no match for Guan Siyu, who had displayed such a powerful aura, he still forced himself to walk out. He didn't even put up any resistance. Instead, he opened his arms and laughed. "Everyone in the world has underestimated you, Hall Master Guan, but I, Yang Gongdu, don't dare to underestimate you. I'm afraid I can't even withstand three of your Divine Power Nine Transformations with my strength. However, I dared to come here today because I dare to bet my life with you, Hall Master Guan! I'll bet my life with the future of the Guanzhong torture room! "
Yang Gongdu's eyes flickered with madness as he said, "I know Mei Qinglian's identity and investigated Chu Xiu's secret. Do you really think that I didn't tell anyone?
His Highness the Crown Prince already knows this news. If you kill me now, His Highness the Crown Prince will send this news to the Celestial Master Abode, the Great Light Temple, the Chunyang Dao Sect, and all the other large sects in the pugilistic world!
Furthermore, I've also 'added' some harmless things to it. You should know what I'm best at. I can guarantee that after these large sects see these things, they'll definitely want to exterminate your Guanzhong Torture Hall immediately to eliminate the evil and defend the righteous!
I'll use my life in exchange for the Guanzhong torture room that has been passed down for hundreds of years and is not inferior to the top large sects in the pugilistic world. It's worth it!
Hall Master Guan, I dare to bet my life. I wonder if you dare to use the Guanzhong torture room that has been passed down for hundreds of years as a bet? "
Eunuch Chen, who was standing behind Yang Gongdu, was crazily cursing Yang Gongdu in his heart. This lunatic!
When he came, Yang Gongdu did not say that this matter would be so dangerous. He even used his life as a bet. He even looked so confident that Eunuch Chen thought that he was just here to show off and watch the show. He did not expect that as he watched, it would escalate to the level of gambling with his life.
Yang Gongdu wanted to court death, but he did not!
Everyone present looked at Yang Gongdu with a solemn gaze. Those who could be listed on the Honor Roll List were all existences that could stir up a storm in the pugilistic world. None of them were ordinary people. Wind Sweeping Tower would not allow a mediocre person to enter the Honor Roll List. That would be destroying their own reputation.
Actually, Yang Gongdu's life was not considered a success. He had always been a failure.
He had painstakingly helped the Northern Yan alliance and gathered the strength of many pugilistic sects to defeat Eastern Qi. In the end, he lost everything because he participated in the battle for the throne.
After that, he stirred up a storm in West Chu and almost succeeded. However, at the same time, he offended the two strongest forces in the world, the Moon Worshipping Sect and the Celestial Master Manor. He was chased out of West Chu and did not dare to return.
Yang Gongdu's life was full of defeats. Although he almost never won, he did not die under such an encounter and did not lose heart. He began to seek refuge with Lv Longji and continued to stir up trouble in the pugilistic world. This person's tenacity and perseverance were rare in the world, and it was enough to prove his strength and ability.
Today's scene was almost the same as Yang Gongdu had expected. Guan Siyu was not so easy to yield to, and what he lacked was strength.
There were people in Eastern Qi who were stronger than Guan Siyu, but none of Lv Longji's subordinates were.
Therefore, even if Yang Gongdu invited the few Martial Dao masters who were on Lv Longji's side, he would not be able to defeat Guan Siyu. Instead of taking the initiative to court death, he would rather take a gamble with Guan Siyu.
In Yang Gongdu's analysis of Guan Siyu's character, there were only two things that Guan Siyu valued the most in his life. One was Mei Qinglian, and the other was Guanzhong torture room.
Although seeking refuge with Eastern Qi went against the direction of Guanzhong torture room's development, it could protect Guanzhong torture room. It could even temporarily make Guanzhong torture room stronger. Yang Gongdu believed that Guan Siyu could easily figure out what to choose.
Yang Gongdu's actions were a little crazy, but when he gambled with others, he would usually only make a move when he had 50% confidence.
As for the remaining 50%, it would depend on the will of the heavens. If the heavens wanted you to succeed, 50% was enough. If the heavens wanted you to die, even if there was only a 10% risk, you would still die.
