Fu Hao is startled inwardly.
"This Blue Dragon Temple is indeed very formidable. It seems they've also planted many spies in the Nine Spirits Hall. Lord Teng is really formidable to have guessed that the 3rd majesties were communicating with me." Thinking quickly, Fu Hao immediately puts on an extremely shocked expression and says in disbelief: "Lord Teng, how, how did you know?"
With a grim expression, Lord Teng continues: "Don't ask me how I know. Now I'm going to ask you a question and you're going to give me an answer."
"Yes, please ask, Lord Teng." Fu Hao says respectfully.
Lord Teng says coldly: "Who are the 3 majesties who just left the Nine Spirits Hall?"
"They're the 2nd majesties, the 6th majesties and the 7th majesties." Fu Hao says without hesitation.
Lord Teng asks again: "Which cave are the 3 majesties going to this time?"
"The Red Blood Cave!"
Fu Hao answers extremely quickly. However, he curses inwardly: "This horned dragon definitely knows who the 3 majesties are and which cave they're going to. Now it's asking me instead. It's obviously testing whether I'm lying or not."
"Then do you know why the 3 majesties are going to the Red Blood Cave?" This time Lord Teng stares into Fu Hao's eyes.
Fu Hao's quick-witted baby-like eyes remain unchanged. He immediately says helplessly: "Lord Teng, I don't know. My Great Shell Cave is too weak. If the 2nd majesties hadn't communicated with me several times, I still wouldn't have known about this."
Lord Teng nods.
The death of the 8th majesties is an extremely confidential matter. Even the Nine Spirits Hall is very secretive about it. Lord Teng deduced that the 8th majesties had died based on information from various sources so it is very normal that Fu Hao doesn't know about it.
Even though Lord Teng doesn't care, his face still darkens.
Seeing Lord Teng's face darken, Fu Hao appears to be somewhat alarmed.
"Then let me ask you, what did the 3 majesties communicate with you about?" Lord Teng immediately asks.
Fu Hao says in a panic: "There's a lot of things. The 2nd majesties have communicated with me several times. What do I need to say?"
Lord Teng's face changes color. He shouts: "What did he communicate with me about? Tell me everything clearly. Don't leave anything out."
"Yes." Fu Hao says hurriedly at once: "At the beginning, 2nd Prince asked me about what happened to the Red Blood Cave. Then I told him that Chahón was killed and a Dharma protector called Liu Xing became the new cave master."
Lord Teng nodded expressionlessly.
Fu Hao takes a look at Lord Teng's expression then hurriedly continues: "Later on His Highness ordered me to send a message to that old turtle Qing Xuan, saying that he was going to appoint him as the new cave master of the Blood-red Cave."
Lord Teng just listens and stares at Fu Hao.
"Later on, the old turtle Qing Xuan went to seize the position, but was killed by the new Cave Master, Liu Xing, with a single sword strike. That Liu Xing is really too terrifying. I think he should be at the middle Dongxu stage. Alas, I really don't understand why an expert who could kill the old turtle Qing Xuan with a single blow was willing to be a Dharma protector in the past. It's really strange. "Fu Hao starts to talk boastfully.
"Don't talk nonsense. I didn't ask you anything else. Just tell me the message Di Qing sent to you." Lord Teng suddenly shouts coldly.
"Yes, yes." Fu Hao hurriedly responds: "Later on, when the 3 majesties learned about this matter, they seemed to pay a lot of attention to this Cave Master Liu Xing. They even ordered me to order people to infiltrate the Blood-red Ridge and investigate everything related to that Liu Xing."
Fu Hao suddenly pauses and stops talking.
"Hmm?"
Lord Teng's eyes flash with coldness.
"That's all, sir." Fu Hao says in panic.
Lord Teng's sharp eyes slightly pause then he says: "Oh, that's all?"
"There were 2 or 3 other times, but they were all about Cave Master Liu Xing. But I didn't know anything about him. Of course I couldn't explain clearly or didn't know anything about him. It's not worth mentioning." Fu Hao immediately adds an explanation.
Lord Teng nods and ponders for a while.
"Fu Hao." A smile suddenly appears on his face. "Remember, since you've served us, we naturally won't treat you unfairly. I believe that before long, the 3 majesties of the Nine Spirits Hall will definitely go to the Great Shell Cave to rest. At that time, they'll definitely ask you a lot of questions. Whatever they ask or say, send it to me through the Transmission Token. "
"Yes, Lord Teng." Fu Hao says respectfully with a smile.
Suddenly, Fu Hao's eyes brighten. He stares at a floating crystal above Lord Teng's palm.
"A top-grade crystal?" Fu Hao's breathing becomes rapid.
Even Lord Teng of the Nine Spirits Hall only had 5 top-grade crystals in his interspatial ring. It is easy to imagine how rare and precious top-grade crystals are. It is very difficult for cave masters of the 8 caves under the command of the Nine Spirits Hall to obtain top-grade crystals.
"Yes, we're quite satisfied with your performance in the last 2 years. This top-grade crystal is your reward. "Lord Teng waves his hand and the top-grade crystal arrives in front of Fu Hao.
Fu Hao receives the top-grade crystal and says hurriedly: "Don't worry, Lord Teng. I'll definitely tell you everything I know. When the three princes come here in a while, Fu Hao will definitely inform Lord Teng of everything the three princes said and what they did. "
Hearing Fu Hao's last sentence, a rare faint smile appears on Lord Teng's face.
"Very good, you're a smart man. You'll definitely have a better future by serving us than by following the Nine Spirits Hall. I believe you understand what I mean? "
After saying so, Lord Teng rolls up his blood-red robe and leaves extremely fast in a flash. Lord Teng can come and go as he pleases in the Great Shell Cave without being affected at all. Therefore, Fu Hao's guards and restrictive spells are basically useless.
… …
One day after a month,
Fu Hao, who is rolling around with a beauty on the bed, suddenly stops moving.
"Beauty, you can leave now."
Fu Hao gives an order helplessly then immediately puts on his clothes. When there is no one else in the room, a fat man is lying on the jade chair he used to lie on. This fat man is even fatter than Fu Hao but is shorter.
This short and fat man has a small mustache that looks like a sharp knife.
"Lord Lou, it's only been half a year and you've come to eat my treasure again?" Seeing Lord Lou, Fu Hao's attitude is different from seeing Lord Teng. At the moment he is very relaxed but his expression is bitter.
The short and fat man strokes his mustache and says with a laugh: "This, your blood-red honey is really delicious. There's nothing I can do about it. How about giving me another bowl? "
"Bowl!"
Fu Hao suddenly screams as if he has been slashed by a knife.
"You unexpectedly said bowl. I only have 3 small jade bottles in total and they're not even enough for a bowl!" Fu Hao says angrily. However, his face suddenly turns pale.
Lord Lou laughs evilly: "Ha-ha, there are still 3 bottles left. Last time you told me you only had 1 bottle left. Humph, humph, if you don't give me 2 bottles, don't think you'll have an easy time. Tell me, are you going to give them to me respectfully or should I snatch all 3 bottles by force?"
Both Fu Hao and Lord Lou are extremely fond of sweets. This blood-red honey is not only as delightful as liquor but it is also so sweet that the 2 fatties are infatuated with it.
"2 bottles? Just kill me."
Fu Hao swears to death that he will not comply.
After bargaining for a while, the helpless Fu Hao is finally forced to give 1 and a half bottles of blood-red honey to Lord Lou in humiliation. Seeing Lord Lou's complacent appearance, Fu Hao's heart aches.
Lord Lou opens the bottle cork and gently sniffs the scent of blood-red honey with an expression of great enjoyment. However, he says: "All right, let's get down to business. I don't think I need to say much. Tell me everything you know. "
Fu Hao feels helpless inside: "Damn it, what's going on in the past 2 years? People from both the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province have come to find me. Could it be that I've become popular? But I've also gained a lot. "
In fact, Lord Teng and Lord Lou found Fu Hao in the past 2 years and asked him to work for them. Because he is intimidated by the formidable power of these 2 great experts, the pitiful Fu Hao has no choice but to work for them.
Every time Lord Teng and Lord Lou come here, they do it secretly so that no one will discover them.
After talking for a while, Lord Lou also learns what he wants to know. However, Lord Lou is obviously a bit more stingy than Lord Teng. In the end, he only rewards Fu Hao with a high-grade holy weapon. Fu Hao cannot help cursing in his heart.
Seeing Lord Lou leave, Fu Hao secretly lets out a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, I was quick-witted and said '3 bottles' instead of 9." Fu Hao is very pleased with himself.
Now that Fu Hao is sandwiched between 3 powers, he is really trembling with fear. But he has also gained a lot.
Fu Hao does not know that in general, the Blue River Province, the Blue Dragon Temple and the Nine Spirits Hall do not care about small powers at the level of the 8 major caves and usually do not plant any spies in them either. For example, the Blue Dragon Temple only plants spies in the Nine Spirits Hall and the Blue River Province at most.
Even the Nine Spirits Hall does not care about the 8 major caves under its control.
2 years ago, the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province discovered that 8th majesty of the Nine Spirits Hall had left the Nine Spirits Hall. Even though they declared that he was doing closed-door training, the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province have been planting spies in the Nine Spirits Hall for a long time.
However, Di Tong's whereabouts are mysterious so it is very difficult for the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province to find out what he wants to do.
However, the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province do not pay too much attention to it. Even though a majesty of the Nine Spirits Hall who has left secretly to do something is worth tracking down, it is not worth paying too much attention to. But then they obtain a piece of internal information from the Nine Spirits Hall — 'The 8 majesties of the Nine Spirits Hall are extremely angry outside the place where the soul jade slips are kept.'
In addition, 3 majesties immediately left the Nine Spirits Hall extremely fast so these 2 pieces of information lead them to conclude that 8th majesty is dead.
Only now does the Blue Dragon Temple and the Blue River Province realize that the matter of 8th majesty secretly leaving the Nine Spirits Hall is not simple. They immediately begin to pay attention to this matter and even dispatch 2 super experts, Lord Teng and Lord Lou, to do it.
Lord Teng and Lord Lou coincidentally find Fu Hao.
The 3 superpowers are competing with each other and the 8 caves under the command of the Nine Spirits Hall are also fighting both openly and covertly. The Great Shell Cave, which is closest to the Red Blood Cave, planted quite a few spies in the Red Blood Cave 100 years ago so the one who knows the affairs of the Red Blood Cave the best is undoubtedly the cave master of the Great Shell Cave.
Naturally, now Fu Hao has received the attention of the 3 superpowers because Di Qing often keeps in touch with him through his transmitter.
Lord Teng and Lord Lou usually also keep in touch through their transmitters but this time they know that the 3 majesties are about to arrive at the Great Shell Cave, which means that they will arrive at the Red Blood Cave. Lord Teng and Lord Lou naturally have to spend a lot of money on Fu Hao.
The Blue Dragon Temple deserves to be ranked no. 1 among the 3 superpowers and the Lord of the Blue Dragon Temple deserves to be called the no. 1 expert of the overseas Xiuzhen world because he is much more generous than the people of the Blue River Province.

"Qin Yu, to be honest, you know almost nothing about Go. You seem to have taught me this chess, right? Look, general. "
Li Er moves her 'horse'.
Qin Yu is immediately dumbfounded. Even though his old general can move a bit more, Qin Yu sees that Li Er's other horse has already been set up so he simply cannot move. If he moves, he will die.
"Li Er, you've won again."
Qin Yu reluctantly concedes defeat.
In fact, he knows a thing or two about Go. According to Grandpa Lian, his level on the Qian Long continent can be considered average. However, when comparing Qin Yu and Li Er, Li Er always makes Qin Yu admit defeat every time after 100 moves.
Qin Yu also feels helpless inside: "Can you blame me for this? Every time I'm always defeated after 100 moves. The gap between us is too big. Perhaps after 100 moves, she will still give me face. "
When Qin Yu and Li Er play Go, he discovers that sometimes one of Li Er's pieces can only be used after 100 moves. Qin Yu feels fear in his heart. This Li Er's calculating ability is really too strong. Could it be that she has calculated so many moves?
He is forced to admit defeat.
However, Qin Yu is a man of the Qin clan and does not like to admit defeat. Therefore, he proposes to play 'Xiangqi'. Li Er does not understand Xiangqi at all. Qin Yu is so despicable that he does not even clearly explain many of the rules of Xiangqi. It is always Li Er making the next move and Qin Yu making the next move.
Then … Qin Yu wins the first game.
After one game, Li Er barely understands the rules of Xiangqi.
In the second game, Qin Yu clearly feels that Li Er's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Relying on his many years of savings and the many Go manuals he has read in Misty Villa, he finally manages to win the second game. However …
From the third game onwards, Qin Yu has never won a single game.
His dignity as a man is gone. Qin Yu thinks that he is very smart. Even his father Qin Yu would not be able to beat him so easily in Xiangqi. However, Li Er is simply very relaxed. Every time after the game ends, Qin Yu finds that Li Er's layout is very rigorous.
"Qin Yu, don't be too discouraged. Actually, your strength … "
Qin Yu immediately looks at Li Er.
"It is really bad."
Qin Yu cannot help but feel bitter. In fact, Li Er wants to say that Qin Yu is very bad at Xiangqi. In the end, she is a little merciful. Seeing Qin Yu's appearance, Li Er immediately says like a teacher: "If you are weak, you should learn well. In a while, I will play a game with Uncle Lan. You have to watch carefully."
For more than half a year, Qin Yu often plays Go with Li Er and often admits defeat.
"Okay." Qin Yu says with a smile. In reality, he does not care too much about winning or losing Go. Qin Yu likes Li Er's wise and farsighted appearance when she plays Go. Only like this can he feel at peace. Suddenly, Qin Yu becomes serious: "Li Er, there is something I need to tell you."
"What is it?" Li Er says with a smile.
"I am preparing to leave tomorrow. I have to return to the Red Blood Cave." Qin Yu should have left long ago, but he has been delaying it. Only now does Qin Yu understand that the people from the Nine Spirits Hall could come at any time in the next month or two. He has to go back.
Li Er is startled. She has played Go with Qin Yu every day for the past half a year. For Qin Yu to leave now, she really does not want him to leave.
"Then when you are done with your business, you have to come visit me often. When you go back, you have to carefully study your Go skills. "Li Er says with a smile.
Qin Yu nods.
"Definitely!"
Qin Yu says with absolute certainty.
