At the side, Black Stone, who was in the middle of reporting, saw the three of them discussing and stopped to wait. After hearing the contents of the conversation, he sighed inwardly. Even now, the three of them were still on guard against each other, not trusting each other, and still saw each other as a real threat.
He knew very well that if not for that, as long as the Nine Sages were united, no one would be able to shake the position of the Nine Sages.
If not for that, Granny Snow would not have died, and they would have joined forces to kill that Kun Linshu in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland.
Luo Qiu would not have died, and he would have killed Luo Fangfei in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland.
If not for Luo Qiu and Yuan Se's infighting being used, Yuan Se would not have died.
Even Lv Wushuang, if Lv Wushuang revealed the secret, and everyone worked together, nothing would have happened.
If the Nine Sages advanced and retreated together, Zhangsun Mi and Mu Lianze might not have died. If the nine of them entered the Butterfly Illusion Realm together, they might have killed the Holy Rakshasa.
In short, the Nine Sages withered to this state because of the infighting.
Wu Chang said, "Stop, there's no point in talking about this now. The problem now is that the enemy is in the dark, and we are out in the open. Everything we are doing is to find them. As long as we find the target, everything else is not a problem. "
There was no need for him to say more. Lan Daolin and Du Wuxu both understood this. If not for the Misty Pavilion being abolished, they would not have been able to sort out the world, and they would not have used Jin to go around in circles.
Lan Daolin said, "I still suggest that we deal with Shang Chaozong and the others!"
Wu Chang said, "Did I not make myself clear, or are you out of your mind?"
Du Wuxu said, "Lan Daolin and I suspect that there's something wrong with that Shang Chaozong. He didn't integrate earlier or later, but chose this time to integrate Yan."
Wu Chang said, "Jin unified the three western countries. In order to deal with Jin's eastern expedition, it's normal for him to integrate now."
Lan Daolin said, "What we are worried about is that the enemy already knows our intentions. This Shang Chaozong is probably backed by those people."
Du Wuxu said, "If we make a move on Shang Chaozong and the others, we might be able to force those people out."
Wu Chang said indifferently, "You're thinking too much."
Lan Li replied in a deep voice, "Wu Chang, it's hard for us not to overthink things. Why do we feel that you're protecting Shang Chaozong?"
Wu Chang: "That's right, you can say that I'm protecting him, because the person behind Shang Chaozong's integration is not what you think. The person behind Shang Chaozong's integration with Yan is me!"
Du Wuxu and Lan Li turned to look at him.
Wu Chang: "You don't have to worry too much about Shang Chaozong, he's already under my control in secret!"
Blackstone raised his eyes and looked at him. He knew that this person must have been forced into a corner for him to say such words.
Du Wuxu: "What do you mean?"
Wu Chang: "The Jin State has just unified the three states, and now they need time to tidy up and reorganize. The occupied land is unstable, and if they send troops to the east in a hurry, there will be internal conflicts. We can't just sit around and wait. How long will it take if we keep fighting? In short, once the Jin State sends troops to the east, the Yan led by Shang Chaozong will definitely lose! "
Du Wuxu and Lan Daolin looked at each other and roughly understood what he meant. Shang Chaozong was this person's spy …
With great difficulty, he managed to pacify the two of them and sent them away. Wu Chang, who was watching them leave, secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Blackstone came over and said, "My Lord, if the Jin State sends troops to the east and encounters a fierce counterattack from Shang Chaozong, how are we going to explain it?"
Wu Chang: "They insist on attacking Shang Chaozong. What can we do if we don't temporarily stabilize them? If we make a move now, we'll alert the enemy. We haven't found out the whereabouts of those people, and we don't even know who they are. Let's drag this out first. "
Blackstone knew that not alerting the enemy was only one of the reasons. He didn't tell Du Wuxu and Lan Daolin the truth because he wanted to use the other side to get rid of them.
However, he was here to report this matter. "My Lord, we've intercepted the information from Thatched Cottage Villa. After sorting through the information, we've found some main contacts. With the help of Tianxing Sect and the people guarding there, we can basically confirm that the person who contacted Thatched Cottage Villa is Tianxing Sect's Supreme Sect Master Wenhua! "
Wu Chang was silent. "It's that old guy!"
Blackstone: "And Wanshou Sect. The person who sent the information is Wanshou Sect Master Xihaitang."
"And the Spirit Sect. The person who sent the information is Spirit Sect Master Yan Zhutian."
"And the Devil Sect. The person who sent the information is none other than Zhao Xiongge."
"And there's also the one in the capital of the Song State. It's the so-called Invisible Minister Jia Wuqun. Thatched Cottage Villa is actually in frequent contact with him. From the content, it seems that Thatched Cottage Villa intends to use him to control the situation in the Song State. Compared to the information we intercepted before we got the translation manual, I'm afraid there's someone worth paying attention to. "
Wu Chang asked, "Who?"
Blackstone: "The letter will periodically include 'greetings to Mister', screening the people around Jia Wuqun. I suspect it's Jia Wuqun's guard, Yuan Cong, that Jian Shanyue."
"Jian Shanyue …" Wu Chang muttered to himself, revealing a thoughtful expression. "The last time you reported, this person used to be high-profile, but then suddenly became low-key again."
Blackstone: "That's right. Now that Jia Wuqun has contact with Thatched Cottage Villa, this person has come out again. It's very suspicious. We're paying attention."
Wu Chang: "Anything else?"
Blackstone: "There's another one. According to the content, it can be confirmed that he has contact with the Fox Clan in the Sage State. Currently, we've only locked onto the messenger at the entrance of the Sage State. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, we haven't touched him for now. However, the strange thing is that the letter he sent doesn't seem to be sent to the Fox Clan. According to our observations, there might be an insider behind him. He has already secretly arranged people. When there are more letters, we might be able to find out who that insider is. "
"Fox Clan?" Wu Chang nodded slightly. "It's getting clearer and clearer. This Thatched Cottage Villa really has a direct collusion with the Fox Clan!"
Blackstone: "There's another one that can only be confirmed to be Purple Golden Cave. Because the Misty Pavilion's spies inside Purple Golden Cave have been wiped out, it's not easy to track into Purple Golden Cave. It's impossible to determine who received the message. The other party's identity was not exposed in the letter, so it's impossible to confirm the identity of the person who contacted them for now. "
Wu Chang pondered, "From the situation of the other families, it's all the top higher-ups of their respective sects. I'm afraid this Purple Golden Cave will not be an exception. I'm afraid it's either Sect Master Gong Lince or those so-called Grand Elders."
Blackstone: "Holy Venerable, I also have the same guess."
Wu Chang: "No wonder Purple Golden Cave can give up their interests to help Shang Chaozong control Yan."
Blackstone: "According to the internal decision-making convention of Purple Golden Cave, the retired Grand Elder probably can't interfere in such a big matter. I'm afraid the possibility of it being Gong Lince is higher."
Wu Chang turned and looked at the sky. "Tianxing Sect, Wanshou Sect, Spirit Sect … are actually right under our eyes! Hmph, a little interesting. If these sects hide the target we're looking for, then the previous series of trivial matters can be understood. Someone is desperately trying to prevent the investigation of the Immeasurable Fruit from happening to those sects! "
Blackstone thought for a moment and nodded. "It seems to be the case. Once the investigation reaches the major sects, these people will have nowhere to hide."
Wu Chang looked back. "According to these circumstances, it's possible that these sects are hiding the target we're looking for. Gong Lince, Wenhua, Xihai Tang, Yan Zhutian, Zhao Xiongge … Zhao Xiongge, Zhao Xiongge? "He frowned.
Blackstone felt strange and didn't know what it meant.
Wu Chang said Slowly: "This Zhao Xiongge, I personally checked his cultivation level earlier. He hasn't broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage. Could it be that I'm thinking too much?"
Blackstone: "Maybe he knows that he's being watched, so it's not convenient for him to use the Immeasurable Fruit to break through. Or maybe the person who stole the Immeasurable Fruit knew about his situation and didn't give him the Immeasurable Fruit. Just because Ao Feng and Kun Linshu broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage doesn't mean that the others are fine. "
Speaking of these two people, he felt a little sad. Even these two guys broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Wu Chang: "We'll know if there's a problem with these people after we test them. Pick a suitable person and set up a trap!"
Blackstone: "Okay, I'll arrange it now."
…
In the Kingdom of Song, above the river, there was a faint morning mist.
Jia Wuqun, who had woken up, wore a cloak and walked to the balcony railing. He looked at the end of the river where the light of the rising sun was about to jump out.
The river wind blew and fluttered his cloak, but it couldn't change the calmness on his face.
Zi Pingxiu had some troubles on his mind, so he went out to solve them. After the matter was over, he took a boat and returned to the river.
On the river, there was a fisherman on a small boat coming over. Yuan Cong appeared beside Jia Wuqun at the right time, vigilant.
The fisherman on the small boat held a fresh fish and shouted, asking if he wanted to buy it.
Yuan Cong waved his hand. Unexpectedly, when the fishing boat got closer, a majestic energy exploded the fresh fish in the fisherman's hand, and a heavenly sword shadow slashed over.
Yuan Cong pulled Jia Wuqun and dodged.
The boat shattered with a rumble. The fisherman jumped up, and the heavenly sword shadow slashed wildly. The boatmen on the boat screamed in fear.
The moment the heavenly sword shadow disappeared, another group of people broke out of the water and attacked crazily.
Wei Duo protected Jia Wuqun. Yuan Cong's figure was as fast as a ghost, shuttling through the group of assassins.
When the fighting stopped, the boat had already been destroyed. Wei Duo had already brought Jia Wuqun to the fisherman's small boat. He protected Jia Wuqun with one hand and held his sword with the other, vigilantly guarding the surroundings.
There were also three cultivators from the Kingdom of Song's three major sects guarding the small boat on the waves.
Yuan Cong's figure could not be seen on the river surface, but blood kept flowing out of the river.
There were survivors among the odd-job workers on the boat. At this moment, some were floating on the river surface, asking for help, some were swimming to save themselves, and some were lying on the broken wooden boards of the boat with lingering fear.
There seemed to be a man-eating monster in the river. The people floating on the river surface kept groaning and slowly sank to the bottom.
After a while, Yuan Cong emerged from the river surface with the fake fisherman in his hand.
The three cultivators looked at Yuan Cong with shock in their eyes. They knew that this person's strength was extraordinary, but they didn't expect it to be this strong. He could actually resist the Heavenly Sword Talisman head-on. What kind of cultivation did he have?
The fake fisherman was thrown onto the small boat. Yuan Cong's figure suddenly flashed, catching the two cultivators off guard. They didn't expect Yuan Cong to launch a sneak attack on their own people. Their chests exploded on the spot, and blood and flesh burst out.
The remaining cultivator was shocked. A thought flashed through his mind: Kill him!
