Yu Cang's face darkened. "Haven't you done enough unconscionable things?"
Niu Youdao was surprised. "Have I?"
Yu Cang didn't believe that he had never done unconscionable things in his life, but it was pointless to dwell on it. "Brother, when Shang Jianxiong wanted to kill you, Waning Moon Pavilion sacrificed a lot of people to help you block him twice. You wanted to kill Envoy Song and we also helped you. Also, we didn't pursue the matter of the birds that fell into your hands. We helped you and gave you all the benefits. There is no free lunch in this world. Waning Moon Pavilion has been on good terms with you for this day. Don't you want to repay us at all? "
Niu Youdao said, "It's pointless to talk about this. If you really want to settle accounts, what about the fact that you hunted me down? And the Shang Mirror, how valuable is it? Who gave it to you? What happened before, whether it was forced by the situation or not, was consensual. It's not clear. It's better to separate the matter from the past. "
Yu Cang said, "This won't do you any harm. Not only will you help us, but you will also help you get rid of the threat of the State of Zhao. Everyone will benefit from this. Why are you being so unreasonable? Could it be that you still want to bargain for something? Well, if so, you can put forward any conditions you have. "
Niu Youdao said, "Do I look like that kind of greedy person? Of course, I want too many things. You don't have to ask. You can't do anything about what I really want. In the end, it's up to me whether I agree or not! "
Yu Cang said, "A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is right in front of Waning Moon Pavilion, and we can't afford to lose it. Waning Moon Pavilion has been waiting for this day for too many years, generation after generation. Now that this day has finally come, we are willing to pay any price for it! This time, whoever dares to stand in my Waning Moon Pavilion's way will be my mortal enemy. Brother, do you really want to destroy the hope of my Waning Moon Pavilion? Do you really want to bear the full revenge of Waning Moon Pavilion? "
These words caused Niu Youdao's heart to sink and his expression to turn cold. "Is Mister Yu Cang threatening me?"
Yu Cang replied, "I'm not threatening you! In order to help you, many of our brothers in the Waning Moon Pavilion have died. Everyone in the Waning Moon Pavilion accepts it, because this is the price that must be paid on the way forward. In exchange for your support, we are willing to offer this price, but we will never accept being teased after paying the price! There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Since I'm here today, you have no choice! "
Niu Youdao's fingers flicked the hilt of his sword. "It's easy for me to take you down now. Is this the right time to threaten me?"
Yu Cang pointed at his restrained body, "I'm willing to be manipulated like this, so I don't plan to go back alive. Either you kill me and start a full-scale war with Waning Moon Pavilion, or you agree. There is no third option. Waning Moon Pavilion's confidence is right there!"
Niu Youdao raised his eyebrows and said, "If I hide in the New Moon Inn of Star picking City, or the Rainbow Inn of the Ice and Snow Pavilion, what can the Waning Moon Pavilion do to me?"
"What a joke!" Yu Cang retorted, "Is that a place for people to seek refuge? How long can you hide there? Don't you want your painstaking efforts in the Southern State? "
Niu Youdao only mentioned the matter of hiding. A place like the New Moon Inn was indeed not a place for people to seek refuge, and there were some rules.
Of course, it could also be used as a place for people to seek refuge, but no one could afford the cost.
Staying for a short period of time didn't cost much. Many cultivators could afford to pay ten gold coins a day. However, if one were to stay for a long period of time, the first month would cost ten gold coins a day, and the next month, it would become a hundred gold coins a day. As the number of months increased, even the wealthiest person would eventually be sucked dry.
This was the price. It wasn't impossible to borrow the power of the Nine Supreme Martial Artists to ensure one's safety, but it wasn't cheap!
But there were still desperate people who would go in, and they would drag it out as long as they could.
Niu Youdao changed the topic, "If I were from the Misty Pavilion, would the Waning Moon Pavilion have the confidence to do this?"
"…" Yu Cang was speechless. After a while, his face twitched and he said, "You're from the Misty Pavilion? No, that's impossible! "
Niu Youdao said, "What's the point of making such a fuss? It doesn't matter whether I'm from the Misty Pavilion or not. What's important is to let you know that the Waning Moon Pavilion is not omnipotent. If you really want to compete, I can do the same. In the end, you may not be able to do anything to me! In the end, if you want my help, don't scare me. The most convenient way is to show your sincerity. "
Yu Cang asked, "What kind of sincerity do you want?"
Niu Youdao said, "I'll ask again, who is the Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion?"
Yu Cang said, "Once it's done, the one who stands out will be the one. You'll know when the time comes." What he meant was that there was no need to ask so much before the matter was done.
Niu Youdao said, "I can't do such a big thing for someone who doesn't even know who he is. If you want to fool me like this, fine, it's useless to threaten me. I'll play with the Waning Moon Pavilion to the end!"
Yu Cang said, "Is that all? You'll agree if I tell you who he is? "
Niu Youdao said, "If the Yan army continues to fight, people will die. A lot of people will die. Who will pay for the military expenses?"
Yu Cang wanted to say, "Won't you need military expenses if you keep fighting like this? Wouldn't I be able to reduce the pressure on your side and save a lot of military expenses? "
However, it was meaningless to say this now. The other party was just looking for an excuse to get benefits. So he asked, "How much do you want?"
Niu Youdao's fingers lit up. "Not much, 50 million!"
Yu Cang's tone was decisive and heavy. "Too much! After the uprising, the Waning Moon Pavilion will face a lot of expenses! "
"Fine! For the sake of our friendship, I won't be long-winded. Cut it in half, 30 million! "
"Half of 50 million is 30 million? Why don't you say 20 million? "
"Then I'll listen to you. 20 million it is! Tell me, who is the Pavilion Master? "
"Xia Lingpei!"
"…" Niu Youdao was speechless for a while. "What do you mean?"
Yu Cang said word by word, "The Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion is Xia Lingpei!"
Niu Youdao couldn't believe it. "Are you kidding me? That bookworm is the Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion? "
Yu Cang said, "His grandfather is, and so is his father. You'll see the results soon. I don't need to fool you."
This time, it was Niu Youdao's turn to be dumbfounded. The Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion that he had been wondering about was actually his student who had lived in his Cottage Villa for so long.
It was very puzzling but also enlightening. According to the signs that the Waning Moon Pavilion was paying attention to, it was really possible. The so-called nephew of Mr. Yu Cang was just a cover.
"Who is Zhuang Hong? Is she actually in charge? "
"No identity, just the Pavilion Master's mother. She doesn't participate in anything in the Waning Moon Pavilion."
"That is to say, the real decision-maker of the Waning Moon Pavilion is actually you, Mr. Yu Cang."
"I'm just one of them, like one of the elders of each sect. You can't threaten the Waning Moon Pavilion with me."
"Haha, the Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion is actually my student. Once your rebellion succeeds and Xia Lingpei is exposed, my relationship with the Waning Moon Pavilion will be really hard to explain."
"Who was the one who insisted on taking him away? I can't stop you even if you think of a way to torment me! Besides, your worries are superfluous. The Waning Moon Pavilion has been exposed in all aspects. Does it still matter whether we have anything to do with it or not? "
What should be said was said and what should not be said was also said. After the matter was settled, Yu Cang left.
He didn't bring that much money with him, so he arranged to send someone to withdraw it the next day.
As soon as Yu Cang left, Guan Fangyi flashed over and saw Niu Youdao sitting on a stone with a puzzled look on his face. She couldn't help but ask, "What did he talk to you about?"
"Xia Lingpei is the Pavilion Master of the Waning Moon Pavilion. Do you believe it?" Niu Youdao sighed.
"Ah!" Guan Fangyi was shocked. She thought she had heard wrong.
"The Waning Moon Pavilion has been planning for a long time …" She didn't need to ask more. Niu Youdao himself told her the purpose of Yu Cang's visit.
Guan Fangyi was shocked after hearing this. She thought of Black Peony who died in the hands of the Waning Moon Pavilion. She asked tentatively, "You promised him?"
"There are no free benefits. If they dare to give, they can take back everything with interest. I have no choice but to agree!" Niu Youdao stood up with his sword and snorted coldly with a faint smile. "With such a net, hiding in the dark is the real trouble. It's much easier to show up!"
The next day, Guan Fangyi was overjoyed again. Another 20 million gold coins were in her pocket!
…
The Misty Pavilion was located at the highest peak of the Seven Kingdoms. It was called Tiandu Peak!
The opening of the Mysterious Land of Tiandu was not far from here.
Most of the places on Tiandu Peak were desolate and cold, but the valley on the peak was like spring all year round. There were hot springs, all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and all kinds of birds and animals lived leisurely.
Here, there were pavilions, terraces, towers, and houses. The buildings were majestic.
The night was the closest to the sky. The stars were so bright that they seemed to be within reach. Looking up at the sky was like being in the vast starry sky.
The Heavenly Palace was the place for the world's powerful to discuss business. Those who could have a seat here were the top cultivation sects in the world.
Outside, the sky was full of stars. The Heavenly Palace was brightly lit, and the large and small luminous pearls inlaid on the walls were shining.
Thirty long tables were arranged on the left and right sides. The thirty people sitting behind the tables were the leaders of the various forces at home and abroad. Gong Lince and the others were also among them. No one knew why they were gathered here today.
While everyone was waiting in silence, several people came in from outside the door. The leader was a thin man with a cold face, giving people a sense of detachment.
As soon as he came in, the thirty people sitting in the hall immediately stood up to welcome him. They watched the man walk past them unhurriedly.
The person who could make these people respect him was naturally not an ordinary person. He was the disciple of Luo Qiu, one of the Nine Great Supreme Martial Artists, and also Luo Qiu's son-in-law. He was also the father of Star picking City's Sha Huan Li, Sha Rulai.
The Misty Pavilion was the place where the Nine Great Supreme Martial Artists worked together to deal with the world's affairs. The Nine Great Supreme Martial Artists took turns to send people to manage the affairs. This time, the leader was Sha Rulai.

When everyone sat down, he also walked to the back of the table and sat down. He looked at everyone again and said, "I called everyone here for no other reason. The Mysterious Realm of Heaven Capital is about to open. As usual, the name list will be submitted by everyone, and this place will not force you. I have seen the name list that you have submitted. Something is obviously wrong. I would like to ask you what is going on. I hope you can give me an explanation. "
