What was even more ridiculous was that the secret letter actually said that they wanted to use that thing to instigate him. He did not know how Wu Chang would feel after reading it.
In the end, he still felt that it was too unreliable. He really could not find a proper solution, so he did not dare to take this risk. He did not know how much information Wu Chang had secretly grasped. He could only take a deep breath, walk to the door of the secret room, and knock on it. "Holy Senior."
"Come in." Wu Chang's voice came from inside.
Black Stone pushed the door open and walked to the bed. He put the letter on it with both hands. "Holy Senior, the Thatched Cottage Villa has made a move."
Wu Chang closed his eyes and waited for him to continue, but there was no response for a long time. He slowly opened his eyes and saw the letter. He could not help but look at him a few more times.
Black Stone reported the situation directly to him most of the time. It was rare for him to read the situation himself.
Wu Chang reached out and took the letter. He looked at the content and roughly understood Black Stone's difficulty. It involved Black Stone himself, so it was not good for him to sort out his opinions and report it. He was afraid that he would be suspected of speaking up for himself.
"That thing?" Wu Chang was slightly puzzled and asked, "What thing? Is it the Immeasurable Fruit? "
Black Stone said, "In the secret letter sent to Yan Zhutian, Wenhua, and Zhao Xiongge, it did not say what it was. It only said 'that thing', but it is probably the Immeasurable Fruit. Otherwise, what else could be possible to instigate the three of us to defect?"
Wu Chang said, "Three people? And three Immeasurable Fruits? Ridiculous! We counted about nine. I don't believe that there are still three Immeasurable Fruits left. "
Black Stone said, "From the content of the letter, it seems that they are only observing the three people to find a breakthrough. They should be observing the possibility of instigation, not necessarily referring to the three Immeasurable Fruits. According to various signs, Zhuge Chi has probably used the Immeasurable Fruit for a very long time. It is very likely that he used it soon after it was stolen thirty years ago. Wenhua has also retired for many years, Jian Shanyue has also retired for many years, and Kun Linshu and Ao Feng have obviously broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm not long ago.
"From the time span of Zhuge Chi and Kun Linshu using the Immeasurable Fruit, it is possible that the other party really has Immeasurable Fruits in their hands.
Wu Chang was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "If the other party really took out the Immeasurable Fruit to instigate you, would you be instigated?"
Blackstone's heartstrings tightened. What he feared had come true. After a moment of silence, he said, "This subordinate is indeed a little tempted, but I do not dare to betray the Holy Venerable."
Wu Chang: "I originally promised you that I would give you one Immeasurable Fruit as long as I obtained it. Who knew that the Immeasurable Fruit was stolen and the Immeasurable Fruit Tree was also destroyed. If they really have more Immeasurable Fruits, don't worry. As long as we get them, I'll definitely give them to you! "
Hei Shi hurriedly knelt down on one knee. "Please take back your promise, Saint."
Wu Chang was a little surprised, "Why? You don't want it? "
Black Stone said, "It's not that I don't want it. If the Nine Saints were still around, this subordinate would be more than happy to do so. But now … the Holy Venerable is about to become a Supreme Venerable. This subordinate doesn't dare and doesn't want it. I am already satisfied to be able to continue serving the Holy Venerable. "
Wu Chang understood. If the Nine Saints were still around, the other party would dare to ask for the Immeasurable Fruit. Once he was the supreme in the world, asking for the Immeasurable Fruit would be courting death.
He stared at Hei Shi's expression and observed for a while. Slowly, he said, "What you said is the truth. There's no rush to make a decision on this matter. We'll talk about it when the time comes."
"Yes!" Hei Shi agreed, but he was cursing in his heart. That Thatched Cottage Villa was too much of a scam. Everything was fine, but they did this. Wasn't this harming people?
He didn't know if Wu Chang would believe it, and he didn't know if Wu Chang would suspect that he would secretly collude with Thatched Cottage Villa for the Immeasurable Fruit.
However, there was one thing he was sure of. This plan was not a small matter for Wu Chang. It was impossible for Wu Chang not to guard against him. Since he already knew this news, he definitely wouldn't let him ruin it.
Wu Chang: "Continue to keep a close eye on the letters. See how they are going to act. If they like you and use the Immeasurable Fruit to instigate you, you might as well agree."
"Uh …" Hei Shi choked and was speechless.
…
In the secret chamber, Lv Wushuang came and placed a letter in front of Niu Youdao. "Zhao Xiongge didn't discuss anything with Nantian Wufang and directly replied."
At the mention of Nantian Wufang, Niu Youdao subconsciously glanced at Guan Fangyi, who was stroking her hair coquettishly. He didn't know how this woman would react when she saw Nantian Wufang in the future.
When he picked up the letter to read, Guan Fangyi also leaned over to read it.
The content of the letter showed that Zhao Xiongge indeed didn't discuss anything with Nantian Wufang. Zhao Xiongge clearly told him that if it was really that thing, Hei Shi would definitely rebel. However, it was unknown whether Hei Shi would be able to do anything. Perhaps Hei Shi wouldn't be able to find an opportunity to act!
Putting down the letter, Niu Youdao said calmly, "Got it. We'll wait for news from Yan Zhoutian and Wenhua."
Guan Fangyi didn't understand. "What are you doing?" In the end, she didn't get a reply.
…
In the Cloud Artifact Sect, there was a tightly guarded courtyard halfway up the mountain. Hei Shi entered and went straight into a quiet room.
There were three female cultivators in the quiet room. They were responsible for translating the secret letters intercepted from Nanzhou. Their living conditions were strictly controlled. They were forbidden from contacting or talking to other people, and they weren't allowed to leave the courtyard.
Seeing Hei Shi arrive, the three of them stood up and bowed. However, there seemed to be a strange look in their eyes as they looked at Hei Shi.
Hei Shi asked, "Is it out yet?"
"It's out." One of the women took out a piece of paper and offered it.
After Hei Shi took it and read it, his face tightened. In his heart, he cursed Zhao Xiongge's eighteen generations of ancestors.
In the letter, it said that he, Hei Shi, didn't have any loyalty to Wu Chang. It said that he had no choice and didn't need to discuss anything with Nantian Wufang. As long as he took out that thing, Hei Shi would definitely rebel. It was just that he, Hei Shi, might not be able to find an opportunity to act against Wu Chang.
This thing, this messy content, how could he show it to Wu Chang?
He now roughly understood what was going on with the three women's strange expressions.
Without saying much, Hei Shi turned around and left to report to Wu Chang.
Previously, he didn't dare to hide it. Since Wu Chang had already seen the content, it might have already aroused Wu Chang's vigilance. Now, he didn't dare to hide it.
Wu Chang, who read the report in the dark room, was expressionless. He comforted, "Since I already know, the situation is already under my control. Don't think too much. I believe that even if it's for your own benefit, you won't betray me."
"Holy Venerable is wise." Hei Shi bowed deeply.
…
Yan Zhoutian and Wen Hua's replies arrived one after another. The content was similar to Zhao Xiongge's. Without any observation, they were certain that whether it was Qing Jiu or Si Shaodong, as long as they had a choice, as long as they could obtain the Immeasurable Fruit, they would definitely rebel.
Inside the secret room, Niu Youdao, who had finished reading the letter, took out a piece of paper from the desk and handed it to Lv Wushuang. "Have Monkey send the message according to the content on this."
Lv Wushuang took a look and realized that it was sent to Yan Zhoutian, Wen Hua, and West Sea Hall respectively. There was no need for Zhao Xiongge anymore.
On it were the names of the three Misty Pavilion members selected by Niu Youdao. These three people were now in the Cloud Tool Sect, the Spirit Sect, and the Sky Motion Sect. They were part of the Misty Pavilion that controlled the three sects.
The information on the three people was clearly stated on the paper. Yan Zhoutian and the other two were secretly thinking of ways to control the three people from the Misty Pavilion.
In the letter, they were repeatedly instructed not to reveal their identities. They were to contact them secretly and control them secretly. They would rather take things slowly and only act when they had absolute confidence.
Lv Wushuang knew with one look that it would be easier for Yan Zhoutian and Wen Hua to handle the Spirit Sect and the Sky Motion Sect. It would be difficult to contact the Cloud Tool Sect without their own people. If he let Zhao Xiongge handle it, it might be inconvenient for the Devil Cult. Thus, he handed it over to West Sea Hall to think of a solution.
After reading the contents of the letter, Lv Wushuang raised his head and said, "You are planning to control these three people and then let them contact Black Stone, Si Shaodong, and Qing Jiu?"
Niu Youdao snorted and said in a self-mocking tone, "Even if Black Stone, Si Shaodong, and Qing Jiu are instigated to defect, what are the chances of them succeeding in attacking Wu Chang, Lan Daolin, and Du Wuxu? Concubine Yuan is a good example. "
The possibility was very small! Lv Wushuang had an answer in his heart. He asked suspiciously, "Are you using these three people to hide something?"
Niu Youdao shook his head, "I am not hiding anything. I am just looking for trouble. I made a series of moves before. If I suddenly calm down, I am afraid it will arouse suspicion. If there is action, Wu Chang will wait patiently. He will not let Du Wuxu and Lan Daolin act rashly. Delay, delay as long as you can! "
He was indeed trying to delay as much as possible. Now that his side was fully prepared, he did not dare to launch the final attack without absolute confidence. At this point, he would not act rashly without absolute confidence.
Therefore, he hoped to stabilize Wu Chang and delay as much as possible. If he could delay until his cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, that would be the best result he hoped to see.
The Immeasurable Fruit Tree suddenly blossomed and completely disrupted his plan. Now, he hoped to achieve the desired result in another way.
Lv Wushuang did not understand, "What is the use of delaying like this?"
Niu Youdao said, "We want to use Wu Chang, and Wu Chang wants to use us. Now, neither of us dares to alert the enemy. We are both afraid to act rashly and arouse each other's suspicion. We have no good way to deal with Du Wuxu and Lan Daolin now. At this point, those two fellows will definitely be on high alert. Wu Chang understands them and is someone who can easily contact them. Since we have no way, let Wu Chang think of a way. "
He looked up at Lv Wushuang, "Delay until Wu Chang can no longer delay. Wu Chang will naturally find a way to solve it."
…
On the peak of the mountain, Wu Chang stood facing the wind. He was waiting, waiting for the Thatched Cottage Villa to make a killing move.
Black Stone quickly came and reported, "Holy Venerable, we found the messenger in the Sage Land, but we don't know who he is. He has disguised himself, so we do not dare to alert him. This person is actually hiding not too far from the exit of the Sage Land. He seems to be in charge of the communication between the Sage Land and the Thatched Cottage Villa. "
Wu Chang looked back, "Wait! Do not alert him. They will not give up. They will definitely make another move. "
He was waiting here while Niu Youdao's side was delaying.
Just like that, time passed day by day, and month after month.
The deadliest confrontation in the world, a confrontation that would determine the fate of the world, was hidden so that no one in the world could detect it. Everything seemed to be going on as usual.
