Ten days later, in the same Shanhe Hall, the three of them were still sitting in their respective seats. Mu Yan's eyes flashed and he spoke slowly:
"Junior Brother Lu, when you return from Tuluo Sect, what's the problem with that guy named Xudong?"
Lu Tianshu frowned slightly when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "I originally wanted to go to Tuluo to observe in secret, and then worship the mountain again.
But Xudong's cultivation level is far above mine, reaching the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he was detected even though I was hundreds of miles away."
When Mu Yan heard this, his eyes flashed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said: "The middle stage of Nascent Soul... is a problem. Where is his injury? Is it really injured?"
"It's true that there are injuries, and they are serious injuries." Lu Tianshu's eyes flashed and he said:
"Although Xudong is in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he was seriously injured.
Even the Nascent Soul has been severely damaged and almost fell below the Nascent Soul realm. It is estimated that the strength it can exert is not as good as that of an ordinary Yuanying in its early stage."
"Oh? Are you serious about this? Don't tell me that Xudong is lying." Mu Yan's eyes narrowed and he asked.
"Absolutely not!" Lu Tianshu said resolutely: "His infant essence is in chaos and uncontrollable, constantly fluctuating and escaping. This kind of injury cannot be faked.
Moreover, the technique I practice is special, and I have confirmed it using special magical powers. His Nascent Soul is severely damaged for some reason and is on the verge of being broken. It is definitely not a fake!"
Mu Yan nodded when he heard this. He knew that Lu Tianshu had a unique skill and had special ability to sense other people's physical conditions. He was also cautious, so he asked him to investigate Xudong's condition.
After hearing what Lu Tianshu said, Mu Yan no longer had any doubts. He breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly:
"Okay, Junior Brother Lu, can you rest assured now? He will never inflict such serious injuries on himself just to dispel our suspicions.
Besides, even if he is not injured, he is just one person, what can he do? I think he is just a down-and-out guy living here."
"That's right." Hu Ji's charming eyes were like silk, and she moaned: "Even if he is in trouble, he is still a strong man in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. It is reasonable to control two or three sects for healing purposes. There is nothing to make a fuss about.
of."
"Hu Ji is right, we are worrying too much." Mu Yan nodded and said slowly: "But after all, he is a strong man in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, so he cannot pay no attention to it."
As he said that, he thought deeply in his eyes: "They are in the east direction. Since they are in that area, that's it.
Send an order to Qingqiu Sect and Liu Yuefeng to unite the three sects of Netherworld Valley, Sanduan Mountain, and Xie Fa Sect to check and balance the development of Tu Luo Sect.
As long as he no longer expands outwards, we don't need to worry about him. With the constraints of these five sects, we can ensure that nothing goes wrong."
…
Millions of miles away, in the Tuluo Sect, there was a stone palace carved into the mountain. Dozens of candles burned vigorously, illuminating the entire stone chamber with light.
Xue Qian slowly walked into the stone room. Xudong, who was on the main seat, quickly opened his eyes and stood up.
"Brother Xudong, sit down quickly." Xue Qian saw Xudong's pale face and looked quite weak and said hurriedly. At the same time, she walked quickly to Xudong's side and said with concern:
"Brother Xudong, are you okay? I see that your face is not very good." After saying that, Xue Qian sat down on Xudong.
Xudong smiled palely and said: "It's nothing, it's just a shock to the injury that has stabilized in the past few days. In addition, when the Nascent Soul was damaged, it was not treated in time, but was forcibly suppressed. Now it re-ignites, naturally
Weaker."
"That won't have any impact on your body, right?" Xue Qian suddenly showed concern after hearing this.
"Don't worry, princess, I will be fine. It's just that the injuries that have stabilized in the past month need to be recuperated again." Xudong shook his head gently and said calmly:
"It just so happens that I can use my injured body to buy more preparation time and let the Fahua Sect relax their vigilance. This is the best thing.
Moreover, I have a complete Nascent Soul to assist in my recovery, and I will be completely fine within two months."
Xue Qian nodded and suddenly smiled: "I really admire you and the master. You calculated that they would definitely come to test you, so you used your original injury to set up a trap to numb their hearing and hearing.
They definitely wouldn’t have thought that you could fake something even though you were so seriously injured, or they wouldn’t have imagined that you could be so ambitious after being so seriously injured.”
"You think I think it's just that our opponents are stronger than us, so we have to rely on this strategy to gain a chance of victory."
As he said that, Xudong suddenly flashed his eyes and looked at Xue Qian: "By the way, have you done with the two disciples Lu Tianshu brought?"
Hearing this, Xue Qian suddenly showed a hint of pride and said with a smile: "Don't worry, they are just two boys in the foundation building stage. They were all planted with blood poison by me and became blood slaves.
However, I used my pure blood to temporarily suppress their blood slave characteristics. Lu Tianshu will never be able to tell that the two disciples he brought have become ours."
"Very good, these two people will be of great use in the future." Xudong nodded, his eyes shining brightly.
He didn't know anything else, but he had great trust in the blood slave method of the blood clan.
Especially for a vampire with pure blood like Xue Qian, the power of the law left by the slave mark is so powerful that it is almost impossible to resist.
If Prince Denton hadn't died and the slave mark was forcibly transferred to Xue Qian, there would have been no chance for the three blood slaves to resist, let alone the two foundation-building disciples.
Once you become a slave, you will be loyal to Xue Qian for the rest of your life. Even if a sharp knife is coming, you will not think of him at all!
Seeing the light flashing in Xudong's eyes, Xue Qian turned her gaze and asked: "Brother Xudong, we still can't attack the Fahua Sect now. What should we do next?"
Xudong nodded, pondered for a moment and said: "In addition to the Fahua Sect, there are more than thirty small sects in this corner of the wasteland, many of which are under the control of the Fahua Sect.
There are less than twenty sects that have little to do with the Fahua Sect. These are the forces we want to fight for, but with our strength, we simply cannot command that many sects.
Even the seven sects that were conquered before, except for the other five sects of Baigui Cave and Three Realms Mountain, are not all under control.
What we have to do next is to quickly digest the strength of these sects, control them firmly in our hands, increase our own weight, and wait for the opportunity to come."
Xue Qian showed a look of understanding, nodded, and asked with thoughtful eyes, "Then how do we digest them?"
"It's very simple." Ask a few of these sects to unite, and then unite one or two sects controlled by the Fahua Sect to attack other sects together.
In this way, we can not only strengthen the strength of these sects, but also indirectly contain part of the strength of the Fahua Sect. The Fahua Sect does not know that those sects are controlled by us and will not interfere.
Moreover, in the alliance, there are sects that they control, and they will even acquiesce to this kind of annexation, and we will slowly let those sects know through our actions who we are taking orders from!"
Xue Qian nodded, stroked her forehead and said: "It's so complicated. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to figure it out at all. Forget it, I'd better not get involved in this kind of thing and just carry out the tasks assigned by you."
Xudong smiled softly and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed and a jade slip flew in from the palace door.
Xudong grabbed the jade slip in his hand, and when his spiritual consciousness penetrated it, he suddenly showed a strange look.
"What's wrong?" Looking at Xudong's expression, Xue Qian looked suspicious and couldn't help but ask.
Xudong crushed the jade slip and said with a smile: "Fahua Sect's secret order requires Qingqiumen and Liu Yuefeng, which they control, to form an alliance with Mingyougu, Xiefa Sect, and Sanduan Mountain to check and balance our power.
The calculation was pretty good, but he never expected that we would move so fast and control so many sect leaders."
"So? The Fahua Sect helped us broker the alliance. Wouldn't it be easier for us?" Xue Qian's eyes flashed upon hearing this and she couldn't help but say.
"Yes, in this way, Fahua Sect thinks everything is under control, which is of great benefit to us." Xudong said with a strange look in his eyes:
"This is an opportunity given to us by the Fahua Sect itself. If we cannot blame others, the Fahua Sect will undoubtedly be destroyed!"
…
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, two months had passed since Tu Luo established his clan.
In the past two months, undercurrents have surged in the wasteland, completely breaking the relatively stable situation in the past, and the major sects have continued to fight.
Within ten days of its establishment, Tuluo Sect directly annexed Baigui Cave, and the two sects of Sanjie Mountain dominated one side, causing all sects to pay attention.
In less than half a month, the five sects of Qingqiumen, Liuyue Peak, Mingyougu, Xiefa Sect, and Sanduan Mountain announced their alliance, synchronized their offense and defense, and formed a unified front, known as the Wildfire Alliance.
Another powerful force rose up in the east, facing down the Tuluo Sect from afar under the overlooking of the Fahua Sect.
As soon as the Wildfire Alliance was formed, it rapidly expanded outwards and successively annexed two neighboring sects, Qingyue Mountain and Fuling Cave.
After receiving the news, Mu Yan was silent for a long time. Finally, his eyes flickered and he murmured in a low voice: "These guys just want to fish in troubled waters and reap benefits."
The expansion action of the Wild Fire Alliance was within his expectation, and Mu Yan acquiesced to this action. After all, in his opinion, this five-sect alliance was dominated by the two sects of Liu Yuefeng and Qingqiu Sect, that is, the Fahua Sect.
under control.
There is nothing wrong with them taking this opportunity to expand, and it is even more insignificant, as long as they can contain the Tuluo Sect.
However, the Fahua Sect's acquiescence moved many forces in the east of Wildfire Wasteland. In such a chaotic situation, they had to find their own way out.
The two sects Ziyou Sect and Yunhe Sect offered heavy gifts and chose to attach themselves to the Tuluo Sect. The other sects in the east saw the attitude of the Fahua Sect and gradually moved closer to the Wildfire Alliance, eventually forming a bipolar confrontation pattern in the east.
Fahua Sect, Shanhe Hall.
Too many things have happened in the wasteland in the past two months. Hu Ji's face has lost its usual charm. She frowned slightly and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Senior brother, how do the guys from the Wild Fire Alliance do things? Let them contain Tu Luomen. It would be better for them to unite and take advantage of the situation to expand.
As a result, the entire eastern region was panicked, and the two sects Ziyou and Yunhe were forced to come under the command of the Tuluo sect, leading to this situation."
The two sects, Ziyou and Yunhe, had long been subdued secretly, and naturally they declared their attachment to the Tuluo sect openly only under the instruction of the Tuluo sect.
However, Xudong's secret operation made everyone believe that these two sects had to choose to rely on them because of the oppression of the Wildfire Alliance.
Even the senior officials of the Fahua Sect had no doubts about this, but they were very unhappy because of it.
Mu Yan's face turned slightly gloomy at this time, but his expression remained calm and he said calmly:
"It doesn't matter, this situation is not bad. Although the Wildfire Alliance has been busy expanding, it won't be able to succeed without a strong Nascent Soul leader, so don't worry.
As for the Tuluo Sect, there was no threat. After Xudong swallowed the Three Realms Mountain and the Hundred Ghost Cave, he had been healing his wounds and never appeared.
Their sect master is also in seclusion for unknown reasons. He has always been a little girl from the vampire clan, managing the affairs of the sect.
Without Xudong's leadership, a little girl would not be able to support Tu Luo Sect's overall situation.
Over the past few days, I have ordered the Wildfire Alliance to continuously create friction. At first, the Tuluo Sect fought back, but now, it is beyond its capabilities and has begun to give in.
That guy Xudong is just using Tu Luo Sect to heal his wounds. He is seriously injured and cannot make any trouble. As long as he doesn't get out of seclusion, Tu Luo Sect will be nothing."
As he said that, Mu Yan's eyes flashed and he continued: "As for those forces that choose to attach themselves to the Tuluo Sect, I have been sending people to alienate them, and now they are no longer convinced.
The current Tuluo Sect is just relying on the name of the powerful Nascent Soul to hold on.
As soon as Xudong's injury deteriorates, no one will be able to suppress Tu Luo Sect. These sects all choose to rely on him, which is not a good thing for Tu Luo Sect.
On the contrary, they cannot digest the strength of these sects, and now they are beginning to be beyond their capabilities. If this continues, sooner or later there will be trouble."
"What if Xudong comes out of seclusion?" Lu Tianshu's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but ask.
Mu Yan immediately raised his eyebrows and sneered: "So what, what can he do on his own? If he is willing to cooperate, I am planning to use his hand to integrate the entire eastern region.
If you don’t want to, then level him out, support the Wildfire Alliance, and also control the eastern region, so that the resources we occupy can be increased a bit."
"That's it, congratulations, senior brother!" Hu Ji smiled charmingly and whispered softly. Lu Tianshu also flashed his eyes slightly and nodded.
