Lv Wushuang said, "Jia Wuqun's judgment should be right. This is a good idea for the Three Saints. It doesn't matter if we can withstand it or not, this is the best way to reorganize the world. First of all, it will consume a lot of cultivators, reducing the strength of all the forces. The weakened forces will be much more obedient, which will greatly reduce the burden of control in the future. Second, it will regain control of the world's interests. Those who want to benefit will have to obey orders. "
It was unclear if Niu Youdao had heard it. He squinted his eyes and muttered, "Waning Moon Pavilion has sided with Jin again …"
Lv Wushuang smiled. "On the battlefield, you side with me and I side with you. Isn't that normal?"
Niu Youdao did not answer her question. "I thought Jin would deal with them. It seems like they have a long life!"
Lv Wushuang was surprised. "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao turned around and said, "Contact the Prince. Ask the Prince to make the arrangements. I want to meet with them."
Them? Yun Ji noted it down, nodded, and left in quick steps …
About an hour later, the tunnels leading to the two temporary shelters were cleared. Niu Youdao arrived at the central secret room.
Shang Chaozong, Meng Shanming, and Lan Ruoting were already waiting. They saluted Niu Youdao together. "Daoye!"
Niu Youdao waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities. He did not beat around the bush and asked directly, "There's a setback in the war in the west. What do you think the outcome will be?"
Shang Chaozong said, "I've analyzed it with General Meng. Qi's destruction is only a matter of time. Qi can't withstand it anymore. It will collapse at any time."
Niu Youdao looked at Meng Shanming, as if he was more inclined to listen to Meng Shanming's opinion. "So soon?"
Meng Shanming chimed in immediately, "This battle was too sudden. Logically speaking, there's no need for the Jin army commanded by Gao Pin to do this. Even if Qi Kingdom can't take it anymore, Huyan Wuhen is still supporting the Qi army. Although it's inevitable that Gao Pin will win by force, he'll have to pay a hefty price to do so."
"This isn't in line with Gao Pin's style of fighting steadily and surely. It's also unreasonable. As the commander-in-chief of an army, anyone who could easily win would not have to fight for a Pyrrhic victory. Especially when Gao Pin has already pushed the Qi army to this point, it's even more unnecessary."
"Huyan Wuhen wasn't the only one who didn't expect a high rank to do this. I didn't expect it either. If it were me, I'm afraid I would have fallen for it too. Moreover, Gao Pin's actions have indeed caught Huyan Wuhen unprepared. This has caused Huyan Wuhen's strategy to suffer a major failure. "
"The situation that the Qi army is facing has already shaken the hearts of the people. If not for Huyan Wuhen's support, I'm afraid that the army would have fallen apart long ago. And at this critical juncture, Huyan Wuhen's Valiant Cavalry has suffered a heavy blow. The impact on the Qi army's morale is fatal. "
"Huyan Wuhen's prestige may be there, but people's hearts are different. Not everyone is determined. There's the Qin army behind them, and the Jin army in front of them. Under such pressure, I'm afraid that the Qi army will gradually defect to the enemy. "
"Therefore, the Qi army won't be able to hold on for long. They'll be defeated at any time."
Niu Youdao asked, "There's no way to turn the situation around?"
Meng Shanming said, "It's not entirely impossible. But the Jin army's strength is almost enough to crush the Qi army. The Qi army has no more reinforcements. It's impossible for them to win in a direct confrontation. Unless Huyan Wuhen cleverly makes use of the situation to win a few battles and suddenly reverses the situation. "But Gao Pin's current style of fighting is exceptionally cautious. Moreover, he has the strength to crush the enemy. He has a sure-win strategy in hand. Why would he easily fall for a trap and give Huyan Wuhen a chance to win by chance?"
Niu Youdao said, "In other words, Huyan Wuhen will definitely lose?"
Meng Shanming nodded. "If there are no major accidents, this can only be the result. And this result will come very quickly. Maybe it'll happen all of a sudden." Then he sighed. "The sudden change in the situation and Gao Pin's insistence on attacking at all costs is beyond everyone's expectations."
Niu Youdao said, "There's nothing strange about it. This isn't the idea of Gao Pin or the Jin imperial court. It's not even the Cloud Equipment Sect's idea. It's the Third Saint who's pressuring them from behind."
The three of them looked at each other in surprise. Shang Chaozong said with a serious expression, "The Third Saint is personally involved in the battle?"
Niu Youdao waved his hand. "Don't worry, Prince. Six out of the Nine Saints are our doing. To put it bluntly, I'm the one who pushed for it."
"The Third Saint's power is no longer enough to control the world. That's why he's using Jin. In other words, the Third Saint can't hold on any longer. Now, although we're not showing our strength, we're the true number one in the cultivation world. The Third Saint is no match for us! "
"The reason why we're not showing our strength is because the Third Saint's personal deterrence is still there. We can still gather a group of people to serve us."
"We already have the strength to fight the Third Saint head-on. However, the Third Saint's personal strength is not to be underestimated. Before we have absolute confidence, we won't act rashly. If one of them escapes after we make a move, there will be no end of trouble. This is a very likely situation. These fellows are best at escaping. Therefore, we can't be too hasty. Slowly, we need to plan. Therefore, it's fine if we don't make a move. Once we make a move, we'll definitely eliminate all future troubles! "
This was the first time he had clearly told Shang Chaozong and the others about this. He had also clearly told them how powerful the Third Saint was.
Hearing this, Shang Chaozong and the others were excited. They didn't expect, they really didn't expect, that the backer behind them was already the number one force in the entire cultivation world. It was easy to imagine how emotional the three of them were. In the past, they would never have thought that this day would come. It had only been a few years, but the situation had already reached this point!
After boosting their morale and giving them some confidence, Niu Youdao continued, "I'm here to ask the Prince and Meng Shuai if there's any way to pull the Waning Moon Pavilion to our side."
The three of them looked at each other again. They didn't know what he meant.
Shang Chaozong said doubtfully, "The Waning Moon Pavilion's strength hasn't been damaged too much. It's still intact. If we pull them to our side, with their ambition, I'm afraid Purple Golden Cave will be afraid."
Niu Youdao said, "Don't worry about Purple Golden Cave. They will cooperate."
Meng Shan Ming said, "If that's the case, they will definitely come to our side with promises of benefits. However, there's no way we can bring the Qin Kingdom's men over. Jin has a tight grip on Xi Ping Pass. It's impossible for them to let us go. "
Niu Youdao said, "I don't care about the Qin Kingdom's men. I'm only asking if we can pull the entire Waning Moon Pavilion to our side."
Meng Shan Ming said, "Then there's no problem. The Waning Moon Pavilion had no other choice but to join the Jin Nation. The Jin Nation only promised them three states' territory. If the Prince sent someone to contact them and offered four states' territory, the Waning Moon Pavilion would definitely join them. The Waning Moon Pavilion knows very well that Jin will not let them be at ease in the upcoming war to destroy Qi. They will definitely use them on the edge of the battlefield. The Waning Moon Pavilion will definitely suffer heavy losses. However, they have no other choice. "
"If the Prince can give them a way out … From the past, we can see that the Waning Moon Pavilion is a group of short-sighted people after Yu Cang's death. Perhaps it's because of internal strife. Lure them with benefits. After weighing the benefits, they will definitely come to our side!"
Niu Youdao said, "Good! Then the Prince will lure them here as soon as possible. After that, set up an ambush and slaughter them! "
Slaughter? The three of them thought they had heard it wrong. They spent so much effort to lure the Waning Moon Pavilion here just to slaughter them?
Yun Ji who was accompanying them was also stunned. Was he going to kill the Waning Moon Pavilion at this time?
Shang Chaozong couldn't help but ask, "Does Daoye mean to lure them here and kill them all at once?"
Niu Youdao said, "That's right. Kill them all at once! If you need the cooperation of cultivators, you can contact Yun Ji. I will coordinate with them. "
After getting the confirmation, the three of them looked at each other. Lan Daolin cupped his hands and said, "Daoye, may I ask why you are doing this?"
They had to ask. The impact of this matter was too great. The cultivators who came to join them had actually wiped out their entire clan. What would the others think of them in the future?
Niu Youdao said, "I have no intention of letting them go. Back then, they were scattered all over the place and I couldn't do anything to them. Since they have come out to court death, there is no need for me to be polite. The battle between me and the three Saints is imminent. The final outcome is unpredictable. If I lose, how can I let them live until the end? This matter needs to be done as soon as possible. I don't have much time left. I don't want to leave any regrets! "
The three of them didn't understand why this person had such a strong desire to kill Waning Moon Pavilion. He actually wanted to kill them all!
But the three of them understood. This person must kill Waning Moon Pavilion first!
Since this person insisted, the three of them didn't dare to disobey. After exchanging glances, Shang Chaozong cupped his hands and said, "Okay, we will immediately make arrangements for this when we get back."
Niu Youdao nodded and said, "The intention of the three Saints is to use Jin to conquer the world and reshape the structure of the world. We should also make preparations on our side. After destroying Waning Moon Pavilion, the Prince can ascend to the throne of Yan. Only when he has the power to command the people of Yan Kingdom will he have the power to contend with Jin. My battle with the three Saints may not wait until then, but it's always good to be prepared in advance, lest someone holds me back. "
It sounded like he didn't want to let Shang Chaozong work for nothing. It was as if he would become the emperor of Yan Kingdom once the matter of Waning Moon Pavilion was settled.
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were once again shocked. Especially Shang Chaozong. Although Niu Youdao had told him before, when this day really came, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
After seeing Shang Chaozong's reaction, Meng Shanming saw that he didn't know how to respond, so he immediately poured cold water on him. "Daoye, how could Xiao Yao Palace and Spirit Sword Mountain agree?"
Niu Youdao said, "You don't have to worry about this. Xiao Yao Palace and Spirit Sword Mountain are not worth worrying about. If I tell them to go east, they can't go west. Whoever disobeys, I will destroy them! In short, the Immortal Cultivation World and secular forces of Yan Kingdom will support the Prince to ascend to the throne. "
There was a hint of aggressiveness in his words, indicating that this matter was already set in stone. They also knew that this Daoye would never say those hypocritical words to them. Shang Chaozong was excited again and was about to cup his hands to express his gratitude.
Who knew that Lan Ruoting poured cold water on him again. He cupped his hands and said, "Daoye, with all due respect, this is not the best time for the Prince to ascend to the throne, please postpone it!"
