"Isn't controlling the four sects the same as strangling all the cultivators in the world?"
Inside the secret room, Niu Youdao paced back and forth, muttering to himself.
Lv Wushuang, who was drinking tea next to him, also pondered and said, "Since the Five Sages have publicly stated their stance, it shouldn't be the case. In fact, even if they control it, only the elixirs used for cultivation would have some effect. The others shouldn't have any effect. Since the situation has reached this point, if they continue to control the supply of elixirs, it would be counterproductive. "
Niu Youdao stopped and sadly said, "No matter what, at least this test confirmed that it's not the case, so we can rule out this possibility."
Lv Wushuang said, "There's one thing you have to pay attention to. Although you've succeeded in the Misty Pavilion, I'm afraid it's counterproductive. This time, the Five Sages may be united against the outside world."
Niu Youdao disdainfully said, "Do you think the Five Sages are united? Which one of them doesn't want to dominate the world? Isn't it because they're worried that the second Wu Chang will appear? "
Lv Wushuang said, "At least in the current situation, if there's no accident, they must be united against the outside world."
"There's bound to be an accident. How can we let them be safe and sound?" Niu Youdao walked to the sage land map, stared at it, and muttered, "Since we can't figure out what they're doing, we can only wait and see. They do their thing, we do ours. "
Lv Wushuang looked at the map and her eyes flashed. "Do you want to make a move on the old witch?"
Niu Youdao pondered, "Doesn't Luo Qiu want to cover up? Just because of the existence of Yinji, the Five Sages can't get along. I still have some cards in my hand. Let's see what to do first. In short, we can't stop. We can't let them be at ease. Instead of us being passive, it's better to let them be passive. "
…
Purple Golden Cave. Two distinguished guests came together. They were the Sect Leader of Xiao Yao Palace, Long Xiu, and the Sect Leader of Spirit Sword Mountain, Meng Xuan.
Their master was still the same master, and he treated them as usual. However, Long Xiu and Meng Xuan inexplicably felt that something was wrong with Gong Lince's eyes. They didn't know if it was an illusion, but they vaguely felt that Gong Lince's eyes seemed to be condescending.
Was it because the Purple Golden Cave was the most powerful force in the Yan region? The two of them felt a little upset and secretly cursed, 'I'll let him be smug for now. Let's see how he can be smug when the Great Jin Nation sends troops to the east.'
But on the surface, the three parties are still able to get along. After taking a seat in the Mountain View Pavilion and inviting the guests to have tea, Gong Lince smiled and asked, "May I know the reason for your sudden visit?"
Long Xiu sighed and said, "What else could there be? It has already become like this, why are you pretending to be ignorant?"
Gong Lince grunted in understanding. "Let's just wait and see what happens between the seven sages."
Although he said that, his heart was stretched taut. Du Wu Xu had gone to Wen Hua's side, Luo Qiu had gone to Xi Hai Hall's side, and Lan Daolin had gone to Yan Zhu Tian's side. The three of them could be exposed at any time, and once they were exposed, he might be implicated. How could he not be nervous?
Meng Xuan: "Look? Yuan Se and Lu Wushuang have already sent us a message. Don't say that you didn't receive it. Now that Yuan Se and Lu Wushuang want us to attack the five sages together, should we obey or disobey? "
Gong Lince smiled and said, "Didn't the five sages say that Lu Wushuang and Yuan Se's cultivation has been crippled?"
Long Xiu snorted coldly. "Brother Gong, why do I feel like it's easy for you to say that? If the five sages say that those two's cultivation has been crippled, then so be it. Who would dare to believe such nonsense? "
Gong Lince spread his hands. "We can't afford to offend either side, so what else can we do? Other than not helping either side and remaining neutral, what else can we do when the outcome of the battle is decided? Who would dare to casually side with either side? Let's just pretend to be ignorant and live our lives! "
Everyone understood this logic. Long Xiu and Meng Xuan came here in hopes that everyone would have a unified attitude and advance and retreat together.
It wasn't just them, the other sects and clans had the same attitude, pretending to be ignorant and muddling along.
…
Inside the study, Shao Pingbo couldn't help but laugh as he read the latest news about the cultivation world. "The two sides are actually having a war of words. When did the five sages' level drop to this level?"
Shao Sansheng laughed beside him and said, "It seems that the five sages' control over the world is indeed not as good as before."
Shao Pingbo shook his head slightly. "The five sages can't just sit back and watch. They will definitely fight back. They suddenly took control of the Cloud Equipment Clan, Spiritual Clan, Tianxing Clan, and Wanshou Clan. They must have some ulterior motives. It must be the prelude to their counterattack. You should communicate more with the Black Water Platform and find a way to pay more attention to the cultivation world. I want to know more details so that I can predict and respond in advance. Otherwise, I won't even know what's going on when I get swept away by the torrent. "
Shao Sansheng bowed slightly. "Don't worry, Young Master. I'm already paying attention."
…
In the small courtyard, Zi Pingxiu and Jia Wuqun sat opposite each other in the pavilion, watching Jia Wuqun write on the rotary board. He didn't know why Jia Wuqun invited him over.
After writing a few lines, Jia Wuqun turned the board and showed it to Zi Pingxiu: The five sages took control of the Cloud Equipment Clan, Wanshou Clan, Spiritual Clan, and Tianxing Clan. I don't know what they're trying to do, but I'd like to trouble the Prime Minister to ask the Lamppost to keep an eye on everything.
Zi Pingxiu was puzzled. He looked at Yuan Cong and Wei Duo outside the pavilion and asked tentatively, "They don't know either?"
Jia Wuqun shook his head, indicating that he had already contacted them, but they didn't know either.
Zi Pingxiu hesitated. "Is it appropriate to spy on these things when the five sages are involved?"
Jia Wuqun wrote again: The five sages' eyes and ears all over the world have been destroyed. At this time, even the cultivation world is against them. You can rest assured.
This wasn't a lie. There were many things that the five sages couldn't carry out anymore. So many people from the Misty Pavilion ran away for the Immeasurable Fruit. They didn't know if the culprit was among them. The world's eyes and ears were destroyed, so there was no way to investigate. Similarly, if the sects were to play tricks in the dark, they wouldn't be able to find out.
There was no way to investigate the Immeasurable Fruit. Knowing the whereabouts of the people from the various sects was also meaningless. There were too many people who had done something wrong. Without the eyes and ears to investigate, they could report whatever they wanted. There was no way to verify it.
Zi Pingxiu thought about it and nodded. "Alright, I understand."
After Zi Pingxiu left, Wei Duo walked over and tore off the paper that Jia Wuqun had written, burning it in a brazier.
…
Early in the morning, in the sky above the snowy region, Zhuge Chi lowered his flying mount. Niu Youdao and Yun Ji landed on the peak of a snowy mountain.
The flying mount circled around and turned back, while Niu Youdao and Yun Ji flew towards the Ice and Snow Pavilion.
The three of them naturally didn't reveal their faces. As for the flying mounts, Huo Kong and the others had taken many with them when they escaped from the Misty Pavilion, so Niu Youdao got a batch.
In the current situation, as long as the flying mounts weren't exposed near their residences or related places, they could fly as they pleased, almost ignoring the Misty Pavilion's ban.
The valley in the snowy region was filled with geothermal energy. It was still a bustling place for the cultivation world. Niu Youdao, who had once again visited this place, walked in front of a row of shops.
Thinking back to the past, he couldn't help but sigh. So many years had passed in the blink of an eye.
The destination of the two was the Rainbow Inn. Yun Ji asked for a room facing the direction that she liked.
Behind the counter, Chu Anlou was still there. After so many years, he was still the manager of the Rainbow Inn.
Chu Anlou, who was sitting behind the counter, looked at the guests. Niu Youdao nodded slightly, smiled, and left.
After checking into the room, Yun Ji checked the room thoroughly. She opened the window and stared at the Ice and Snow Pavilion behind the inn for a while. She took the teapot from the room and placed it on the windowsill. Then, she turned around and quietly observed the scenery outside the window.
Niu Youdao, on the other hand, was meditating cross-legged on the couch. The two of them could be said to be a man and a woman sharing a room.
After noon, Yun Ji suddenly turned around and said, "They're here."
Niu Youdao, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes. He stopped meditating and got off the bed. He slowly walked to the window and peeped outside. He saw a man and two women walking over with a child in their arms by the riverside. Behind them were a few guards who were observing the surroundings at all times.
The man was Chuan Ying, and the two women were Xue Luo 'er and Sha Huan Li. The latter was playing with the child, which made Chuan Ying and his wife laugh heartily.
After noticing Chuan Ying's doting gaze towards the child, Niu Youdao smiled.
At the same time, he also noticed that Sha Huan Li would occasionally glance at the window with the teapot.
Niu Youdao crossed his arms in front of his chest and turned around. He leaned against the wall by the window and said with a smile, "It seems that Sha Huan Li's relationship with Xue Luo 'er is quite good. She was always afraid that Sha Rulai would harm Xue Luo' er. Sha Rulai spent a lot of effort to persuade her. He only managed to convince her after repeatedly assuring her."
Yun Ji said, "If she didn't have such a background, she would just be an ordinary person. How could she not be afraid of getting involved in such a matter?"
Niu Youdao tilted his head and gestured to Yun Ji. Yun Ji immediately lifted the teapot and closed the window …
A few days later, Sha Huan Li, who had stayed in the Ice and Snow Pavilion for a while, started to return to Star picking City. Xue Luo 'er and her daughter accompanied her. Of course, they were invited by Sha Huan Li.
Chuan Ying, who wanted to go with them, found an excuse to not go because she had received a letter.
After Xue Luo 'er and her daughter followed Sha Huan Li and left on a flying beast, Chuan Ying quietly left the Ice and Snow Pavilion and fled to the depths of the snowy mountains.
After changing her appearance, she sneaked into an ice and snow canyon and arrived at the rendezvous point in the letter. She found two strangers waiting for her there. She immediately turned around as if she didn't want any misunderstanding.
Niu Youdao shouted, "Chuan Ying."
Chuan Ying's body stiffened and she continued to move.
Yun Ji, who was at Niu Youdao's side, immediately dashed out and caught up to Chuan Ying in an instant. Bang! Bang! After a brief exchange of blows, Chuan Ying fell to the ground. Yun Ji stepped on him, making it difficult for him to move.
Yun Ji bent down and pulled off the disguise on Chuan Ying's face.
Niu Youdao landed on the ground in a flash and walked up to him. He smiled and asked, "Why are you running?"
Chuan Ying gritted his teeth and asked, "Who are you?"
Niu Youdao laughed and said, "To be able to use Wu Chang's name to lure you out, we are naturally people who know the secret between you and Wu Chang."
Chuan Ying's face was filled with fear and he asked in a low voice, "Who exactly are you?"
Niu Youdao looked around and said, "This is not a good place to talk. Let's go somewhere else and have a good chat." He then left in a flash.
Yun Ji picked him up and flew away with him.
