Sha Rulai said, "You've already left the Shangqing Sect. Why do you still care so much about the Shanghai Sect?"
Niu Youdao said, "It's not that I care about the Shanghai Sect. I'm indebted to Dongguo Haoran. I want to know who did this to him. If possible, it's better to give an explanation to the dead. Of course, I want to know what happened in the past. "
Sha Rulai pondered for a while. "I've noticed it, but I didn't pay much attention to it. For the Saint Realm, even if the Shanghai Sect was the number one Yan sect in the past, they didn't care about it, not to mention the Shanghai Sect that had become a run-down sect after it was destroyed … "
"Destroyed?" Niu You Dao suddenly interrupted, "So what you're saying is, the reason why the Shang Qing Sect is declining is because of the Saints?"
Sha Rulai nodded. "What's so strange about that? It wasn't just the Shanghai Sect that was destroyed. In the early years, the cultivation sects in the various countries were all respected by the strong. When the Wu Dynasty collapsed into hundreds of countries, it wasn't a big deal for the cultivation sects in each country to be respected by the strong. But as the countries annexed each other and gradually formed the current situation, it also meant that the resources obtained by the strong sects in each country were no small matter. "
"The Saint Realm gradually found that it wasn't a good thing for a sect to have too much appeal and influence. They needed to check and balance the situation before it got out of control. Thus, the internal structure of the sects in each country was re-established, which was the current model of the three major sects in each country. Under this model, the three major sects checked and balanced each other. No matter which sect was the strongest, as long as the Saint Realm felt it was necessary, he could use the other two sects to suppress the dominant one. "
"The Shanghai Sect declined under such circumstances. Not to mention the Shangqing Sect in the early years, the Devil Cult later, when it was in the limelight, it was said that it was the world's number one sect. In the end, it even alarmed Luo Qiu to intervene personally. But for some unknown reason, Luo Qiu let the Devil Cult go. I heard that the Devil Cult's Right Emissary Wu Chang and my Master's wife were sworn brothers. It was said that my Master's wife spoke up for Wu Chang. "
"Even so, after Wu Chang became one of the Nine Sages, he was forced to almost disintegrate the Devil Sect for various reasons. Standing at the height of the Nine Saints, they naturally had to protect the interests of this class. The Shangqing Sect hasn't fallen behind. It's not even as good as a small sect for a sage expert. So, a sage expert wouldn't pay attention to it. The deaths of some people in such a small sect aren't worthy of too much attention. "
Niu Youdao's eyes flashed. He had heard about the reason why Luo Qiu let the Devil Cult go from the Fox Clan, so he knew a little about it.
Of course, this wasn't what he was concerned about now. He tried to ask again, "I heard that the Shangqing Sect and King Ning and Shang Jianbo were involved. Their various actions caused the Misty Pavilion to be dissatisfied. Wasn't Shang Jianbo's death because of this?"
Sha Rulai, "You suspect that Dongguo Haoran's death has something to do with the Misty Pavilion?"
Niu Youdao, "In that kind of rumor atmosphere, King Ning was suppressed by the cultivation world. In the end, Dongguo Haoran, Tang Mu, and King Ning met with accidents almost at the same time."
Sha Rulai shook his head, "You think too much. That rumor didn't start in a moment. Before King Ning's accident, there was already such a rumor. If the Misty Pavilion really wanted to target them, they would have killed it long ago if they had discovered the signs. They wouldn't have waited until they met with accidents before taking action. "
"Of course, when the rumor started, it also alerted the Misty Pavilion. There's no smoke without fire. Everything happens for a reason, so they couldn't avoid investigating. The result of the investigation was that the Yan Emperor, Shang Jianxiong, and the Minister of Public Works, Tong Mo, worked together to suppress Shang Jianbo. The reason why the entire cultivation world suppressed Shang Jianbo was because Shang Jianbo had an army of tigers and wolves in his hands. He was good at fighting and was invincible. It would be strange if other countries didn't take advantage of the situation. "
"In the eyes of a sage, it's normal to fight each other. A group of harmony would instead make a sage anxious. When dogs bite each other, they would naturally look on coldly and ignore it. "
So that's why! Niu Youdao nodded slightly, but he still had some doubts, "Again, Dongguo Haoran and King Ning's accident almost at the same time. Don't you think it's strange?"
Sha Rulai said, "It's already very clear. They were in cahoots. What's so strange about them meeting with accidents at the same time?"
"Wait." Niu Youdao raised his hand to stop him, "I'm a little confused by your words. My question doesn't seem to match our understanding. Mr. Sha, are you deliberately hiding something from me? "
Sha Rulai said, "It's already like this. Do you think I need to hide it from you?"
Niu Youdao said, "Then you just said that they were in cahoots. What's so strange about them meeting with accidents at the same time? Even if the Misty Pavilion doesn't care about the Shangqing Sect and doesn't care about their life and death, don't tell me they don't care about the death of King Ning who holds Yan's military power? "
What he meant was that if they met with accidents at the same time, if the Misty Pavilion paid attention to the cause of King Ning's death, how could they not know what happened to Dongguo Haoran?
Sha Rulai understood what he meant and explained, "The Misty Pavilion knows the cause of King Ning's death, but I really don't know the cause of Dongguo Haoran's death. The secret files of the Misty Pavilion didn't mention the Shangqing Sect at the time of the accident. But the Shangqing Sect and King Ning were in cahoots. They met with accidents at the same time, so is there anything wrong with understanding that they were involved? When King Ning's death happened, Dongguo Haoran and the others could have been at the scene. It's normal for them to be besieged and killed. "
Niu Youdao still felt that the two of them didn't match, so he rearranged the topic. "Okay! Let's not talk about the Shanghai Sect first. You mean, you know what happened to the mutiny that happened to King Ning? "
Sha Rulai, "It's not me. The Misty Pavilion found out. I only found out about it after reading the secret files of the Misty Pavilion. Of course, there are many secret files in the Misty Pavilion. It's impossible for me to check all the files from hundreds of years ago. I only noticed this because I found it when I was combing through the situation around you … "
Niu Youdao, "I don't care about this. I just want to know what happened to that inexplicable mutiny. Everyone suspects that it was done by the Yan Emperor, Shang Jianxiong. Is it true?"
Sha Rulai, "It was indeed done by Shang Jianxiong. It was a premeditated surprise attack. I remember the secret files said that King Ning's two thousand men were besieged by thirty thousand soldiers. Along the way, King Ning's army was completely annihilated. "
Niu Youdao, "This is exactly what puzzled me after understanding the situation. Others might not know the combat strength of Ying Yang and Wu Lie Graud, but I do know a thing or two about it. King Ning's escorts were all elite troops of Ying Yang and Wu Lie Graud. King Ning was good friends with Xin Wuzhen, who was ranked third on the Pill Rankings. With Xin Wuzhen's protection and the power in King Ning's hands, there were still some cultivators who sought a way out. Moreover, King Ning was good at fighting. Even if they couldn't win, the thirty thousand soldiers besieging King Ning might not be able to stop the two thousand cavalrymen from breaking out of the siege. At least, they wouldn't be completely annihilated. Not even one of the cultivators around King Ning escaped. Even Xin Wuzhen died. The rebels who besieged him were all dead. No one knows what happened at the scene. Dead men tell no tales. This is too abnormal. "
Sha Rulai, "There's nothing abnormal about it. This was a well-planned attack. The one who secretly commanded the rebels was Wang Heng, one of the four commanders of the Swallow Capital Region. For this attack, Shang Jianxiong even asked Tong Mo to secretly invite the Waning Moon Pavilion to help. The Waning Moon Pavilion secretly sent out a large number of experts … "
Niu Youdao was shocked. "Are you saying that the Waning Moon Pavilion participated in the attack on King Ning?"
Sha Rulai nodded. "That time, almost all the experts in the Waning Moon Pavilion came out. Yu Cang even went there personally. At the critical moment, Xin Wuzhen tried to protect Shang Jianbo but was stopped by Yu Cang. Yu Cang and a few experts from the Waning Moon Pavilion worked together and killed Xin Wuzhen. Yu Cang killed Shang Jianbo with his own hands!
"Two thousand cavalrymen faced hundreds of experts from the Waning Moon Pavilion and the thirty thousand soldiers. None of them survived. After they succeeded, the thirty thousand soldiers who besieged them suffered heavy losses. After that, Wang Heng conspired with the Waning Moon Pavilion to drug the food of the remaining soldiers. After that, the people from the Waning Moon Pavilion slaughtered tens of thousands of them.
"At that time, all the people from the Waning Moon Pavilion covered their faces. In fact, Wang Heng did not know who helped him in the attack. In the Yan Court, only Shang Jianxiong and Tong Mo knew the truth. However, it was useless even if they knew. Shang Jianxiong and Tong Mo did not dare to reveal that they were the ones who did it. It would have a huge impact on the internal affairs of the Yan Court. The Waning Moon Pavilion also did not dare to reveal that they were the ones who did it. If an assassin organization dared to do such a thing to an important official of a country, it would incur public anger. No country could tolerate it. Now that the Waning Moon Pavilion had established their own country, their position was the same as all the other countries. Naturally, they did not dare to admit it. "
Niu Youdao's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart sank. "Wang Heng is dead, and so is Tong Mo. In other words, Shang Jianxiong is the only person who knows about the situation in the Yan Court. How did the Misty Pavilion know the situation so clearly? Could it be that there were people from the Misty Pavilion at the scene? "
Sha Rulai nodded. "The Waning Moon Pavilion sent too many people this time, and there were several people from the Misty Pavilion among them. How could the Misty Pavilion not know what happened?"
"That's not right." Niu Youdao suddenly said, "Wasn't there no one who survived? Even Xin Wuzhen died. If Tang Mu and Dongguo Haoran were there, how could they have escaped? "
Rulai Sha was startled. Just as he said, he didn't think much of Shangqing Sect. But now that he was asked, he put everything together and realized something was wrong. He asked hesitantly, "Could it be that they weren't together when the incident happened?"
Niu Youdao looked suspicious. He did not know if Sha Rulai was deliberately deceiving him. He continued to ask about the suspicious points of the incident. "Also, although the Waning Moon Pavilion will do things for money, participating in this kind of thing will have a great impact. The Waning Moon Pavilion is ambitious and will not ignore everything for money. How much money would it take to move the Waning Moon Pavilion?"
Sha Rulai said, "Not money, but the Shang Mirror. The Shang Mirror that the Waning Moon Pavilion established their country."
"The Shang Mirror?" Niu Youdao's eyes widened. "Are you saying that the reason Tong Mo invited the Waning Moon Pavilion was because he offered the Shang Mirror as a reward?"
Sha Rulai nodded. "That's right."
Niu Youdao's face darkened. "Sha Rulai, are you kidding me or are you playing with me? Let me tell you, if you make me die, you and your daughter will not leave here alive today! "
