Chapter 324.1

Xin Ruxiong’s New Plan (1)

“Huh? What did you say? Liao Zhengyuan failed?” Xin Ruxiong looked at the Jiuyou Sacred Land disciple in front of him, recalling what was just reported, and he couldn’t help but ask.

The disciple respectfully said, “It’s true, Holy Lord. According to Sovereign Zhengyuan, there is a Transcend Tribulation realm powerhouse in Wuling City, and he can’t fight against it.”

A meaningful smile appeared on Xin Ruxiong’s face, “I never imagined that Feng Shao would hide such a trump card in Wuling City. But it’s not surprising, a cautious person like him would definitely not go to Ziqing Sacred Land without leaving behind such a trump card.”

The disciple said again, “By the way, Holy Lord, there is one more thing I need to report to you.”

“Continue.”

The disciple said, “The Transcend Tribulation realm powerhouse in Wuling City is said to be Chen Que, the former Elder of the Xuanlei Sect. This person had not appeared in the world for nearly a hundred years, and many believed that he had long since fallen. Xuanlei Sect has also acquiesced to this. Therefore, Chen Que’s sudden appearance in Wuling City may have hidden secrets in it. In addition, after Sovereign Zhengyuan was taken down and captured by Chen Que, he was forced to expose that he was instigated by us.”

After Xin Ruxiong heard this, he suddenly let out a sneer, “This Liao Zhengyuan brags about how powerful he is all day long, but I never imagined that he would be so afraid of facing a Transcend Tribulation realm that he would say everything outside.”

The disciple asked, “May I ask the Holy Lord, since the Sovereign Zhengyuan ruined our plans, should we deal with him?”

According to Jiuyou Sacred Land’s practice, anyone who was like Liao Zhengyuan, who didn’t manage his affairs well and even revealed Jiuyou Sacred Land must be killed directly.

But Xin Ruxiong sighed and said, “No need.

I don’t know whether this Liao Zhengyuan is really smart or just playing it wrong. He revealed us in this way, so it would be inconvenient for us to kill him. Let’s keep him for now, maybe he can still be useful, then we will send him to the underworld later.”

The disciple didn’t know why, but still respectfully said, “Yes.”

Xin Ruxiong waved his hand at that disciple, “Okay, it’s none of your business, you should step back first!”

After the disciple left, Xin Ruxiong fell into deep thought.

Although he agreed to Chu Qing’s move, it didn’t mean that he and Chu Qing would act the same way.

In fact, even though there were many conflicts between the Jiuyou Sacred Land and Wuling City, to the point that even the former Holy Lord and the seven Jiuyou Generals fell in Wuling City, Xin Ruxiong still admired Feng Shao more than Chu Qing.

And the reason is very simple.

Feng Shao is a principled person, and from his past actions, his character is trustworthy.

But Chu Qing, a son of fortune, scoffs at the so-called principles, always does things based on his own likes and dislikes, and often betrays his guarantees and promises.

Chu Qing thought that this was the smart way of doing things, but he didn’t know that such calculations were too clever, and it would cost Qing Qing’s life instead.

At least a smart person like Xin Ruxiong would rather cooperate with Feng Shao than Chu Qing. And the previous promise to Chu Qing to make a move was actually just a test of his cards.

As for instructing Liao Zhengyuan to attack Wuling City, it was a test to Wuling City, and it was also an explanation to Chu Qing.

If Chu Qing asked about it afterward, Xin Ruxiong could have said, “Look, I really sent someone to attack, and the moment I shot, it was an expert of the Taiqing realm.

But who would have thought that Wuling City would have a Transcend Tribulation realm powerhouse sitting there? So the failure of this shot is very reasonable, right?”

If Feng Shao is to pursue the responsibility, Xin Ruxiong can also say, “The one who shot is Liao Zhengyuan, he is not from our Jiuyou Sacred Land. What? You said he was sent by us? Please, can you believe the things a rogue cultivator like him said? You don’t want to convict my Jiuyou Sacred Land based on such a one-sided story, do you?”

In short, no matter which side it is against, Xin Ruxiong has something to say, and no one can catch him.

It was also because of this that not only could Liao Zhengyuan not be killed, but he had to make sure that he kept his life.

If Liao Zhengyuan died, others would definitely think that Jiuyou Sacred Land was killing people to silence them.

At that time, whether it was ordered by Jiuyou Sacred Land or not, everyone would think so.

That’s why Xin Ruxiong couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. He didn’t know whether Liao Zhengyuan was really smart or just playing it wrong. With just such a sentence, Xin Ruxiong had no choice but to save his life even from others.

Now that the testing is over, it’s time for Xin Ruxiong to consider placing a bet.

Although Ziqing Sacred Land is very far away from Jiuyou Sacred Land, Xin Ruxiong has been sending people to pay attention to the development of the incident.

Don’t look at Ziqing Sacred Land’s drastic changes, but the true background is still there.

Although Tang Fei was missing, based on Xin Ruxiong’s guess, there was a high probability that he was hiding in Wuling City, otherwise, Chu Qing would not have asked Xin Ruxiong to take action at such a high price.

And as long as the background is still there and the important figures are still there, then Ziqing Sacred Land can rise again.

Almost all super-first-class forces in the entire Upper Domain have experienced similar drastic changes, and even many of them were almost cut off from their inheritance.

But even so, these super-first-class forces have risen again in the face of adversity, and even developed to be stronger than before.

It would be too early to say that Ziqing Sacred Land is over because of this upheaval.

On the other hand, Chu Qing, at first glance, seems to have turned around and risen against the heavens, but Chu Qing’s many shortcomings doom him to not go far.

One is that he is too greedy, and the other is that his character is worrying.

Those who gathered around him were mostly driven by their own interests. When the benefits are gone, the friendship will naturally be broken.

Yang Hao and Gong Shenglong left Ziqing Mountain one after another, which is a big proof.

If it weren’t for the protection of Heavenly Dao’s luck in Chu Qing’s body, he might have become a street mouse by now, and everyone would be calling for a beating.

But a creature like a son of fortune is very unreasonable.

Sometimes, it might look like he has come to a desperate situation, but he can always come out intact and maybe even receive a blessing in disguise.
