Wishful thinking
"You've done well in this matter. When I succeed, I'll definitely reward you handsomely!" Fu Xiaochen laughed in satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, the aura emanating from his body completely changed.
Normally, he was well-mannered and treated everyone calmly and indifferently. But at this moment, his eyes carried a cold light while his entire body was filled with an overbearing aura. He was like an ambitious and ruthless person that possessed the power to overturn the world, and it caused others to feel suffocated.
"Tomorrow, I'll follow Luo Yun to the Nine Frost Peak. You'll immediately follow the plan and gather all the important figures in the Wanjian Pavilion away from the army. When the time comes, I'll find an opportunity to sneak out of the Jiuhan Temple and come to the place we agreed on. I'll kill all the important figures and seize control of the million-strong army.
"The entire plan must not be leaked. As long as this plan succeeds, when Luo Yun and the Jiuhan Temple fight to the death, I'll be able to reap the benefits. I'll unify the six major forces and become the true master of the Northern Wilderness Region!"
Fu Xiaochen reminded the Seven Star Valley Elder. As he spoke, his eyes turned red and he seemed to have gone mad. He was in an extremely crazy state, causing the Seven Star Valley Elder's heart to palpitate.
"Valley Master's plan is unparalleled. It'll definitely succeed!" The Seven Star Valley Elder flattered first. Then, he paused and said resentfully, "However, how do we explain this to Elder Jing 'an and Elder Muzhao?"
This Seven Star Valley Elder had always been Fu Xiaochen's confidant. He knew Fu Xiaochen's true nature very well.
In the eyes of others, Fu Xiaochen was the master of the Seven Star Valley. He was humble and considerate in all aspects of the Seven Star Valley. He was once willing to sacrifice his life for the safety of the people of the Seven Star Valley. He was very noble.
However, all of this was just on the surface. It was all Fu Xiaochen's pretense. Everything he did was just to gain more power. Everyone was fooled by him, including Su Muzhao and Su Jingan.
If Su Jing 'an and Su Muzhao knew about this, they would definitely leave the Seven Star Valley. This would be a great loss for the Seven Star Valley. They would lose two geniuses who had the potential to attack the Nirvana Realm.
"Isn't this simple?" Fu Xiaochen raised his eyebrows and said in a disdainful tone, "Luo Yun and the Nine Glacial Palace fought to the death, and I reaped the benefits and became the biggest winner. Other than me, everyone else died on the spot. At that time, as the only survivor, every word I said would become the truth. Who can refute it?"
From the moment he left the Seven Star Valley, the whole plan was formed in Fu Xiaochen's mind. Every step could be said to be perfect. He could easily deceive everyone.
In the beginning, he was a little worried about how to continue deceiving Su Muzhao and Su Jingan. After all, if these two were also in Snow City, it would be easy for them to find clues and affect his plan.
However, this little worry completely disappeared today. Chu Xingyun actually took the initiative to say that Su Muzhao and Su Jingan should leave Snow City and retreat to the Seven Star Valley.
Hearing this, Fu Xiaochen was overjoyed. He immediately agreed with Chu Xingyun's suggestion and berated Su Muzhao and Su Jingan to leave Snow City immediately. They were not to be disobeyed.
"This Luo Yun helped me get rid of a big worry before he died. In order to thank him for his stupidity, I will leave his body intact tomorrow and let him leave this world with dignity." Fu Xiaochen's face was filled with a sinister smile. The flickering candlelight shone on his face, revealing a trace of terrifying malevolence.
He laughed coldly. The entire secret room was strangely quiet. This made Fu Xiaochen suddenly have a strange feeling. He suddenly turned his head and the smile on his face froze. His eyes widened.
In his field of vision, the Seven Star Valley Elder had fallen to the ground. There was no longer any trace of life in his body. Beside his corpse stood a young man in black. A calm smile hung on his devilishly handsome face.
"Valley Master Fu, your plan is very good. Unfortunately, it is too idealistic and a little detached from reality." The young man in black stared at Fu Xiaochen with a smile, but it made Fu Xiaochen's scalp tingle. His entire body trembled violently.
"Pavilion Master Luo Yun, what do you mean by that?" Fu Xiaochen took a few deep breaths and forced a smile.
"I heard your conversation clearly. Why? Are you still going to continue playing the fool?" Chu Xingyun shrugged and approached Fu Xiaochen step by step. He said slowly, "However, even if you continue to play the fool, it is fine. From the beginning, I knew that you were a traitor and your mind was full of schemes."
Buzz!
When these words reached Fu Xiaochen's ears, Fu Xiaochen's expression changed. He looked at Chu Xingyun with a cold gaze. But soon, he smiled bitterly and said, "Pavilion Master Luo Yun, is there some misunderstanding here?"
"What do you think?"
Chu Xingyun had already walked in front of Fu Xiaochen. He looked down at this ugly face and said coldly, "That day, when you gave the Wood Origin Mysterious Crystal to me and asked for an alliance, I knew that your desire for power was no less than Fan Wujie's. However, you were smarter than Fan Wujie and hid it well.
"Ever since we left the Seven Star Valley, I have been secretly observing you. You used the name of an alliance to arrange for your trusted aides to enter the million-strong army and control the command. You even wanted to get close to Chu Hu and Lu Ling. Do you think that I did not know all of this?
"Using the Wood Origin Mysterious Crystal as a bargaining chip to become an ally of the Wanjian Pavilion. Then, using the death grudge between me and the Jiuhan Temple, I will clear all obstacles for you. In the end, you can rightfully command the million-strong army, control the six major forces, and become the ruler of the Northern Wilderness Region.
"Valley Master Fu, your wishful thinking is really smart!"
Words came out of Chu Xingyun's mouth. With each word, Fu Xiaochen's face became more serious. However, he did not say anything from the beginning to the end. He had a bitter smile on his face, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He quietly spread out his spiritual consciousness and carefully checked the surroundings.
"Valley Master Fu, you don't have to secretly check the surroundings. Tonight, other than my people, no one else came here. No one else knows about your plan." At this moment, Chu Xingyun suddenly said something. Fu Xiaochen's face finally changed. His heart started to beat violently and his eyes trembled.
"In the million-strong army, there is no lack of people from the Seven Star Valley. Other than the sinister people who follow you, most of them are pure and kind. They only want to get rid of the name of being a slave sect. If you suddenly die and reveal such a plot, it will cause chaos in the army. Now that the war is imminent, I don't want to see that happen."
At this point, Chu Xingyun sighed and said with some disappointment, "This is also why I purposely sent Su Muzhao and Su Jing 'an away today. I don't want them to know that the foster father they have respected for more than 20 years is a despicable person who does not hesitate to deceive everyone for power!"
Chu Xingyun shifted his gaze and looked at Fu Xiaochen again. He saw that Fu Xiaochen's face no longer had a serious expression. His entire face was covered with malevolence and coldness. He took a step forward and a vast aura came crashing over like a tidal wave.
"Luo Yun, I admit that you are indeed smarter than others. What you said just now was the truth. However, the stupidest thing you did was to overestimate your own strength!" Fu Xiaochen's body surged with vigorous spiritual energy, enveloping Chu Xingyun and the entire secret room, completely isolating them from the outside world.
