Hall Master Xue smiled. "Don't worry. Whether or not this matter succeeds will affect this subordinate's life. Naturally, I will consider everything thoroughly. I gave everyone in the room a pill. It was the Sun Moon Cult's secret 'Three Corpses Brain Divine Pill'. I told them that after swallowing it, there would be no symptoms for a short period of time. The poison would only take effect half a month later. At that time, they would take my special antidote and be completely detoxified. Otherwise, the poisonous insects would break through the membrane and enter the brain. They would die a miserable death.
Half a month later, our rebellion would be over. Success or failure would be decided. If we could successfully overthrow Hierarch Jiang and succeed him, I would personally bestow the antidote. However, the prerequisite was that they had to do their best in order to succeed. If they failed and fell into Hierarch Jiang's hands, they would die no matter what. It would be better to end their own lives as soon as possible.
Acting so cautiously wasn't because I didn't trust my brothers. It was just that everyone's heads were on their waists. If even one of them had any thoughts of betrayal, everyone's lives would be forfeit. This action made you remember that everyone would live and die together, advance and retreat together. That way, you wouldn't take any chances and do anything stupid. But then again, if you weren't afraid, what was there to be afraid of if you ate a pill that wouldn't trigger the poison? We were prepared to fight with our backs to the river. We were going to throw caution to the wind!
I also reminded them that this pill was a special poison. Demon Jiang wouldn't have the antidote. Even if you reported it to him, he wouldn't be grateful and wouldn't put you in an important position. I used both the carrot and the stick to persuade them. Several of them took the pill and swallowed it without a frown.
With these people taking the lead, the rest of the matter was much easier to handle. I saw that a few of them were hesitant, but everyone was watching them closely. If they didn't eat it, it would mean that they weren't on the same side as us. Since we already knew the entire plan, how could we let them leave this room alive? At this time, whether they advanced or retreated, they would die. It was better to compromise and work hard. If they were lucky, they might be able to kill Hierarch Jiang while he was cultivating. That way, they would have a chance to live.
Our Cult brothers have indeed lived up to our many years of cultivation. In the face of an important decision, they are able to see the current situation clearly. After hearing my words, they have all taken the pills. This is like an invisible layer of shackles, forcing them to be loyal and have no choice but to work hard. "When he talked about his great success in buying people's hearts, he felt proud and couldn't stop smiling.
An Yesun let out a cold laugh and said, "Humph, old fox." And then he asked, "How are the troops stationed at the Main Hall's four gates?" "We have also discussed this issue," Hall Master Xue replied, "But we have already discussed this issue. Hall Master Guo's intention was not to inform everyone for the time being. He only wanted to inform some of his trusted subordinates so that they could make things easier for him. Then we'll send disciples who usually support the Hierarch Jiang to guard the gate, and then there's no need to be polite. We'll take advantage of this opportunity to eradicate the remnants of his faction. "An Yesun said," Relying on his own strength is enough, why would he need a faction? This matter isn't as simple as you think. "Hall Master Xue said," Yes, this subordinate will follow your instructions. "
Li Yijie only understood half of it, but he knew that the strategy of the battle was not a small matter, how could he let the Devil Cult's people come up with it? "What four gates?" he asked.
An Yesun paused for a moment. His expression was full of contempt as he swept a glance toward Li Yijie, as if he had just asked a stupid question that everybody in the world knew about. After being in a deadlock for half a day, he reluctantly signaled Hall Master Xue with his eyes and said, "Tell him."
"Li Xiangzhu," Hall Master Xue said, "Those four gates are the four passages leading to the Headquarters' Main Hall. Each one is guarded by soldiers. But you don't have to worry, the enemy's leaders have already been replaced by our people. When we attack and occupy the gate, we just need to set up the formation. According to the Qimen Dunjia technique, the four 'Kan', 'Zhen', 'Xun', and 'Li' of the Nine Palaces of the Sky Plate were arranged in order. The corresponding ones were respectively 'Kan', 'Zhen', 'Xun', and 'Li', respectively, 'Kan', 'Zhen', 'Xun', 'Xun', 'Li', respectively. The corresponding ones were 'Kan', 'Xun', 'Xun', 'Li', 'Li', respectively. First of all, it would be more appropriate for the Righteous Faction's disciples to lead the attack. Alliance Head Li, please make your own arrangements. "
Li Yijie said, "Since it is just a superficial effort, when the time comes, whoever goes out to fight will be able to complete the mission. Right now there is no need to rush into discussion." With a cold laugh An Yesun said, "You are indeed calculating carefully. Alright, if you don't have any more questions, then that's all for today. Everyone, rest for a day, then focus on memorizing the map. We'll set off on the third day. That's all for today. " He made his own arrangements and didn't even ask the Alliance Leader for permission to dismiss the meeting. Li Yijie was filled with displeasure.
One after another everybody complied. They were about to leave when suddenly an old voice shouted, "Hold on, I don't agree. This is our Righteous Faction's matter, why should we let the Devil Cult stick their foot in? Lao Fu will definitely not accept this Devil An Yesun's favor. "
Everybody turned to look at the source of the voice. They saw an old beggar sitting on a wooden chair on the side of the hall. His hair and beard were already white, but his spirit was still hale and hearty. He held a bamboo stick in his hand and leaned against his side. As soon as he spoke in front of everybody, his words were biting cold. His imposing manner was not to be ignored.
An Yesun cast a glance toward him. His expression didn't change in the slightest, as if the person in front of him was nothing but an insignificant object. After pausing for a moment, he coldly said, "We are old acquaintances. Yu Shuanglin, I didn't expect your life to be this long. Seeing that you still have the strength to climb Mount Hua despite dragging these old bones along, I'll let you win. "
Yu Shuanglin clenched his teeth and said, "An Yesun, it's great that you, the Devil, haven't died. All these years I've been thinking about you. You actually had the foresight to hide in the Palace to enjoy life, so I couldn't catch you. Now that heaven's net has a long arm, you've fallen into my hands. Very good! Peng Zhanglao's enmity … "An Yesun said," Stop. If you continue, you'll nag me about that old ghost Peng again. You're old and you're lacking in words. After six years, you still can't come up with anything new. He's buried underground. I'm afraid his bones have already rotted away. "
Yu Shuanglin angrily said, "Shut up! That day Peng Zhanglao had the intention to give you a chance to repent. Not only did you not appreciate his kindness, you even killed him and massacred the people of our Righteous Faction! Just as I expected, you haven't changed at all. You still have no regrets about the past! I, Yu Shuanglin, will definitely not accept your favor! "
An Yesun coldly said, "Do as you wish. Don't tell me I'm the one begging you to accept my favor? I was just about to ask you, what are you doing in this hall? If you really have a backbone, you should have gone outside to bask in the sun from the beginning. You waited until everything was ready, and then pretended to be righteous and wanted to settle the debt with me at an opportune time. You Righteous Faction people are all hypocrites. That's why I look down on you. "
If this happened a few years ago, Yu Shuanglin would have been unable to restrain his anger. He would have brandished his bamboo stick and charged forward with all his might. Fortunately, his temper had calmed down a lot after many years of cultivation. He was no longer as impulsive as he used to be. He restrained himself from cursing out loud. His sharp eyes swept the hall and said, "Most of you are disciples of the younger generation. You lack experience. When your masters and elders were harmed, you were all at a loss. Think about it, don't you think this good thing came too easily? You're a little devil who is used to helping the Devil Cult do evil. Why would you take the initiative to help the Righteous Faction? I'm afraid this is a trap. "
An Yesun coldly humphed and said, "That's right. The name of the trap is' inviting the gentleman into the jar '. Yu Shuanglin, you're saying that because you think you're better than others. Other people's judgment is not as good as yours. You think you should be the Alliance Leader? "Yu Shuanglin angrily said," I didn't say that. You want to use despicable means to win the people's trust? It won't be that easy! " An Yesun said, "You said they were young and ignorant, so they were temporarily deceived. What use do I have for a group of young and ignorant people? Idiot. You're not much different from Li Yijie. You're both stubborn people who won't listen to good advice. "
Cheng Jiahua did his best to curry favor with An Yesun. He stared at Yu Shuanglin and said mockingly, "Huashan Pai's rules are getting worse and worse. Even a stinky beggar can be allowed to go to the main peak. This is not a place where you can get leftovers."
Li Yijie did not have a good impression of this strange young man. Hearing his sharp words and even cursing Huashan Pai, Li Yijie was even angrier. He shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? Old Master Yu is an eight-pouch elder of the Beggar Clan. He is an honored guest of Huashan! This time, the Beggar Clan did not suffer any setbacks. It was all because of righteousness that the Beggar Clan helped us. Everyone is grateful for this kindness. Who do you think you are? How dare you talk nonsense and be disrespectful to him? "
Cheng Jiahua said, "Wulin Alliance Leader, don't talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality. There are many injustices in the world. Can you manage them all? When my Chen family was exterminated, where were you? I feel like I'm degrading myself by discussing matters with him. The Devil Cult has eyes and hands everywhere. They are incomparably powerful. I don't believe that a few beggars can turn the situation around. The Beggar Clan? Humph, I've never heard of it! "
An Yesun snorted coldly. "You're making a fool of yourself. Don't let those bastards think that my disciple is inexperienced. The Beggar Clan can be considered an outstanding and famous sect in Jianghu. This Elder Yu can be considered as your senior. "
Yu Shuanglin said angrily, "I don't need you to pretend to be a good person! Young man, you are An Yesun's disciple? Seeing that you have a smart face, you should be a reasonable person. He once used a vicious method to kill my Clan's Elder Peng. Do you know about this? "
Cheng Jiahua did not know, but his face showed no signs of panic. With a cold laugh he said, "So what? Who told that old fellow surnamed Peng to be tired of living and to provoke my Shifu? What's the big deal about the death of a dying old beggar? Do you think you need to stick your neck out? Do you think you can't find a few beggars in this world? Sabers and swords have no eyes. He was not my Shifu's match. His skill was inferior, so he deserved to die. "His words were full of conviction.
The Chen family's extermination was mostly a rumor among the rich families of the capital. When Old Master Chen was alive, he had nothing to do with the people of Wulin. Only a few of the heroes present knew about this disaster. What they heard were his harsh words. Naturally, no one paid attention to the past that was mentioned in this sentence.
Although Li Yijie was in the Imperial Palace, this matter was a scheme involving the capture of the Devil Cult's young miss, Chu Menglin. Shen Shiyun did not want him to get involved, so he deliberately sent people to conceal the truth. Therefore, Li Yijie did not have any sympathy for this former rich young master. He angrily said, "Did you learn this kind of argument from your Shifu? Then let me ask you: you said that your whole family was exterminated because their skill was inferior, so they deserved to die, right? "
Cheng Jiahua angrily said, "You can say that kind of thing, do you still deserve to be the Wulin's Meng Zhu? No wonder your righteous path's destiny is coming to an end … "
Yu Shuanglin was angry, but he calmed down and said, "Let's do as you say. When two sides have a martial arts competition, the loser deserves to die, right?" Cheng Jiahua was in the middle of arguing with Li Yijie. When he heard what Li Yijie said, he sneered and said, "Listen, listen, Li Yijie, even an old man with one foot in the coffin knows better than you." Yu Shuanglin continued, "You said you are the disciple of the Cruel Fiend Star, so your martial arts must be very high. Let me exchange a few moves with you. Let's see who will fall first."
Lu Qian was looking forward to an excuse to teach Cheng Jiahua a lesson and vent his anger. When he heard Yu Shuanglin's suggestion of a martial arts competition, he was so happy that it was as if a pie had fallen from the sky. As Cheng Jiahua's master, he was well aware of Cheng Jiahua's martial arts foundation. When he first saw Cheng Jiahua, he knew that Cheng Jiahua was not cut out for martial arts. That was why he was unwilling to accept him into the Qing Tian Stockade. Later, in a fit of pique with the Sect Leader of the Kongtong Sect, he made Cheng Jiahua the Second-In-Command. Afterwards, it was confirmed that his judgment was correct. This last disciple of his had made little progress in the past six years.
