"Those three old bastards have invited almost all the famous people in the Qingyang Territory to the banquet. It's obvious that they want to go against us."
In a manor of the Jiuhua Alliance.
Shui De stood there with his head bowed and reported the situation respectfully. In the opposite pavilion, a handsome man was sitting upright. He looked calm and was looking at the black and white chess pieces in front of him. He did not respond to Shui De. Instead, he picked up a cup of tea next to him, put it to his mouth, and took a sip. Perhaps he was not satisfied with it, so he put it down again.
Shui De stole a glance at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Young Master, when the Crown Prince is appointed, Mo Long will definitely fight with Wen Jingshan. Although Mo Long has the Four-colored Nature Protection, outstanding swordsmanship, and the Qingshuang Sword you gave him, and is very powerful, Wen Jingshan is also very powerful. Although he is only a Zhenren of the Zifu Mansion, he has the Four-colored Nature Protection, and his Real Body has two colors. Moreover, his martial arts attainments are even better than Mo Long's. If Mo Long loses …"
"Wen Jingshan … Haha."
The handsome man who was called Young Master said Wen Jingshan's name, shook his head, and smiled faintly. He said softly, "It's already amazing for an ordinary person to have a one-colored Nature Protection in one realm. However, he actually has a two-colored Nature Protection at the time of the Crown Prince's establishment. It's really rare …"
Shui De asked carefully, "Young Master, do you think Mo Long will be a match for Wen Jingshan?"
"It's not important whether Mo Long is a match for Wen Jingshan or not." The handsome man picked up the white jade teacup, put it to his mouth, and took a sip. He still shook his head, put the teacup down, and said indifferently, "What's important is my attitude."
"Attitude?" Shui De was puzzled. He asked, "What attitude?"
"The Three Elders Of Yunxia invited many famous people in the Qingyang Territory on the day of the Crown Prince's establishment. They just want to know my attitude. They want to test whether I dare to annex Yunxia School in front of all the famous people in the Qingyang Territory. Haha …"
The handsome man smiled faintly and said, "They think it's just a test, but in my eyes … it's a threat, a naked threat."
The handsome man picked up the teacup and tasted it again. He seemed satisfied this time. He nodded and said slowly, "Since the Three Elders Of Yunxia want to know my attitude, I'll let them see it with their own eyes....."
As soon as he finished speaking, the handsome man placed the black chess piece on the chessboard and replaced it with a white chess piece. Holding the white chess piece in his hand, he looked at the white chess piece and smiled. "A chess piece is just a chess piece after all. It may have some value on the chessboard, but once it leaves the chessboard, it is just a stone."
..............................
"What about Huo De? To be exact, what about that Gu guy?"
"Gu guy?" Shui De shook his head and said with a smile, "Huo De went to beg the Three Elders. He even pulled in Sect Leader Tu De, but the Three Elders didn't agree."
"Blind man! Stupid! He's hopeless! " The handsome man gently tasted the fragrant tea with a smile. He said leisurely, "If I were to compete with the Jiuhua Alliance, I would definitely choose Gu guy."
Shui De was stunned when he heard this. He asked, "Why? Do you think that Gu guy is qualified to compete with the Jiuhua Alliance? "
"I don't know."
You don't know?
This made Shui De even more puzzled.
"It's precisely because I don't know that I would choose him." The handsome man put down the white jade teacup and stood up. He said leisurely, "Although Jin De has a lot of people behind him, that's all there is to it. If you want to compete with the Alliance, you can't rely on numbers. Unfortunately, the Three Elders Of Yunxia don't know this. They still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts that the Alliance will take into account the opposition of the forces in the entire Qingyang Region and won't dare to do anything to Yunxia School …"
"Haha …"
The handsome man stood with his hands behind his back. His eyes were still looking at the black and white chess pieces. He said, "That's just what they think. The Alliance has already listed Yunxia School as an example. They will either submit to us or get rid of them. There is no third possibility. As for that … Gu guy …"
Shui De was very puzzled when he saw the handsome man frowning and pondering. He thought that with the Young Master's ability, it was impossible for him to worry about that Gu guy. He couldn't help but remind him, "Young Master, that Gu guy doesn't have any impure aura on him. He is not a reincarnated person. Moreover … even if he is, what can he do?"
Yes.
What can he do?
The Jiuhua Alliance had killed reincarnated people before. Shui De didn't know what the Young Master was worried about.
"If he is a reincarnated person, I am not worried at all. I don't care about reincarnated people, and the Alliance doesn't care about reincarnated people either. But …"
The handsome man changed the topic. He pinched a black chess piece and replaced it with a white one. He said, "But it is because he is not a reincarnated person that I am worried."
"Why?"
Shui De couldn't understand. If the Young Master didn't care about reincarnated people, then what was there to worry about?
"I ordered people to investigate carefully, but they couldn't find anything. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air. He is completely blank. There is no clue about him in the entire Northwest territory."
It was unknown when the smile on the handsome man's face disappeared. He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something. He said, "I don't like mysteries, and I don't like the unknown even more. What I hate the most in my life is this kind of mysterious and unknown person."
Shui De didn't respond. He felt that the Young Master was worrying too much. Of course, he didn't dare to say this out loud.
A moment later, the handsome man's voice was heard.
"Go back. In three days, I will personally take people to Yunxia School."
After Shui De left.
The handsome man said, "How was the investigation?"
A gray-robed old man appeared out of thin air. The old man lowered his head, as if he didn't know how to respond.
"Hmm?"
The handsome man opened his eyes. There was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He asked, "You were discovered?"
"Young Master, please rest assured. The Old Slave hasn't been discovered. It's just that …" The old man's voice was a little hoarse. He said, "It's just that … the Old Slave lurked in the Hidden Spirit Garden at the back of the mountain for more than ten days. He has been secretly observing Gu Qingfeng. There is nothing unusual about him. He is neither a reincarnated person nor a reincarnated person. There is no special spiritual aura on him. He is very ordinary, very ordinary … He is no different from a cultivator who has failed to reach the Zhuji phase."
"Oh?" The handsome man said softly and fell into deep thought.
"As for why his physical body is so strong, the Old Slave … was worried that he would be discovered, so he didn't dare to get close to him."
"What does he do every day?"
"What does he do?" The old man's weather-beaten face couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile. He said, "He doesn't do anything. Every day, except sleep, drink, or bask in the sun. Occasionally, he will plant some spiritual fields, water the flowers, and flirt with a few female disciples …"
"Oh?"
Hearing the old man's words, the handsome man's frown deepened. He asked again, "What about his words and actions?"
"Very …" The old man seemed to be thinking about how to describe that strange guy. After thinking for a while, he squeezed out two words, "Casual."
"Casual?"
"Casual." The old man explained, "He has neither the solemnity of a person in a position of power, nor the indifference of a person who has experienced hardships. He doesn't have the momentum of a person who can move freely, nor the insufferably arrogant of a person who is arrogant. From his words and actions, the Old Slave really can't tell who he is, and …"
After a pause, the old man said again, "And according to the Old Slave's observation these days, if he can lie down, he definitely won't sit. If he can sit, he definitely won't stand. If he can stand, he definitely won't walk. If he can say one word, he definitely won't say two words …"
With that, the old man sighed and said, "The Old Slave has seen countless people, but I have never seen such a leisurely and lazy person. He is really idle to the bone and lazy to the bone …"
