After the post "Happiness is the end" was sent out, Qin Fan's intelligence network also started to move.
Regarding the conversation between [Xiong Ba Tianxia] and [Jianghu Baixiaosheng] in the comments, he also saw it and had more guesses about it.
Now Emperor Xuan has just made one move, which has aroused the vigilance of countless forces, including some officials in the court who do not want to see Emperor Xuan possess such a powerful weapon of public opinion.
However, regarding this matter, the harm caused to Emperor Xuan is still under control. He has also tested the bottom line of the current forces. Even relying on the influence of Daxuan Weekly, he may not be able to select several forces to cooperate.
After all, the credibility of Daxuan Weekly is based on the prestige of Daxuan Dynasty for thousands of years, so it can achieve the best effect in such a short period of time.
This cannot be replicated by other forces.
And this power is also obvious. The Ten Thousand Poison Palace is destroyed, and Mu Che's state is disabled. This is equivalent to displaying a unique product, and then just waiting for the buyer to provide conditions.
At the same time, a hole was opened in Nanxuanzhou Mansion, which was like an iron barrel.
Although Emperor Xuan could not regain control of it, he could complete his further plans by appointing the eight vacant city lord positions.
However, this has also stuck to the bottom line of all forces. If he starts to use the same method to intimidate the Star Alliance, I am afraid that it will immediately arouse the joint attack of all forces.
But the key point is that it is true that Zhu Wuyan helped Wandu Palace. Daxuan Weekly mobilized the public's hatred before, but now he knows that there is a co-culprit.
If ignored, Emperor Xuan would experience the backlash from manipulating public opinion.
So what will he choose?
Qin Fan had several conjectures about this, but what he had to do now was to let the people of Nanxuan Prefecture know about it as soon as possible, and then put Emperor Xuan on the hook.
Just like before, the opponent defeated the Wangyou Ghost City until they had to send troops to attack the Ten Thousand Poison Palace.
As long as the discussion is heated up, if the next issue of Daxuan Weekly chooses to avoid the matter, or exposes it with a single sentence, then the newly raised prestige will immediately fall.
At the same time, the credibility of Daxuan Weekly will be greatly reduced.
If the next issue of Daxuan Weekly will elaborate on this matter and use the same method of public opinion to force a certain force to take action, then just wait for all the forces to jump out and stir up trouble.
Moreover, the Qinglong Pavilion is not as good as the Ten Thousand Poison Palace, which is like the lost dog. Coupled with the help of the White Tiger Hall and the Xuanwu Tower, which are ostensibly allies, this combined force is not inferior to any of the top forces.
Once it is started, it will be the prelude to chaos in the world and the rise of heroes.
The last possibility is that the Daxuan Dynasty personally sends troops to solve the problem.
There will be no more uproar in terms of public opinion, and all forces will be happy to watch the excitement. The only one injured is probably Qinglong Pavilion, but breaking this hard bone will also make Emperor Xuan pay a heavy price.
There may be a fourth option, but for Qin Fan, it seems to be beneficial to his own side at the moment, so he will never let go of this opportunity.
By the time this arrangement was completed, it was already the next day.
Zhang Guchen's team, which had set out earlier than Qin Fan, finally returned to the ghost market.
The dozens of people in this group cannot attract much attention at all in the ghost market where customer traffic has skyrocketed.
After Zhang Guyen sent the three coffins to the Ming Tower, he took these disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace back to the Gudu hut. He originally invited Liu Yao, hoping that he could make some suggestions.
But Liu Yao grabbed Liu Lisha and hurried back to Liu Mansion. Along the way, he was still chattering about why Xia Jinyu gave you the mask, whether he is interested in you, how many children you will have in the future, etc.
question.
As for Bi Qingyun, she took eleven sound transmission tokens from Qin Fan and set off for the Xuanhuang Domain.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Fan also announced that he would go into seclusion, although it was estimated that this would only last for a day or two.
...
Nanxuanzhou Mansion, Xuanxing Territory.
A figure wearing a bamboo hat was wandering on the street. At the same time, with his strong mental power, he also listened to the conversations of people on both sides of the street.
"Have you heard that the Ten Thousand Poison Palace has been destroyed? It is said that this battle was extremely difficult!"
"Difficult? Isn't it? The main armies of all the cities in these regions have been dispatched! Zhou Mu even personally led 30,000 silver troops. I once had the honor to see this army go out to suppress bandits. The power it showed could really scare people to the point of peeing.
!”
"Don't you understand? There are helpers in the Ten Thousand Poison Palace. The northern barbarians who caused the beast tide have appeared again. In addition, there is also the master of Qinglong Pavilion, who is a top powerhouse!"
"I'll go! These northern barbarians are just a bunch of troublemakers, but what's going on in the Qinglong Pavilion? Oh, I remembered. This force was originally the boss of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace."
"Yes, yes, the former evil overlord deserves to die!"
"Keep your voice down, don't let some evil people come and stab you."
Soon these people discovered the man in the bamboo hat who had deliberately concealed his appearance and whose whereabouts were slightly suspicious. Their expressions became wary, and then they dispersed without saying a word, leaving the man in the bamboo hat to sigh helplessly.
Then he coughed violently, and a fair and young face was revealed for a moment, and then he covered it with a bamboo hat.
He is exactly what he needs to be.
It had been two and a half days since he left the Ten Thousand Poison Palace, and he kept walking around like this. According to the previous discussion with Qin Fan, he pretended to be waiting for Ying Tianhong in an inn for a day, leaving his traces.
Then he deliberately leaked his whereabouts and waited for Sima Kongming to come to him. For this reason, he deliberately took the route of Xuanxingyu, because according to his understanding, the members of the six sects here were all trusted confidants transferred by Sima Kongming.
'Two days, three days, four days, five days at the latest. If Sima Kongming hasn't come here yet, I'm afraid the Swordsmithing Hall will catch me first.'
Ying Wuque found a ruined temple and began to adjust his breathing. In order to ensure that his reason for leaving early would not be suspected, Huang Tiangui had given him a wave of pressure.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lao Huang is also an honest person, and his attacks are rude, so that even if Ying Wuque wants to recover, he will not be able to recover for a while.
Just when he was thinking about exposing his traces again.
The sound of footsteps approaching from far away rang in his ears. They were coming very quickly, a group of three people, but when they appeared in front of Ying Wuque, he realized that his judgment was wrong.
There is a fourth person, and this person's aura is perfectly restrained, and there is no so-called footsteps.
Master! A great master who far surpasses me!
The other party's appearance was very unfamiliar. At least as far as he knew, there should not be such a powerful master-level person in Nanxuanzhou Prefecture.
This made him subconsciously tighten the handle of the knife, and he pressed towards the four people with faint hostility!
"Good nephew."
The moment the voice sounded, the fourth person took off his disguise, and it was Sima Kongming who he had been thinking about.
Ying Wuque breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then showed an expectant look and said:
"Senior, I wonder if my father has contacted you?"
Sima Kongming frowned slightly. He did not answer immediately. He just rejected the three people accompanying him and then put a hand on Ying Wuque's wrist.
"This was caused by momentum. What exactly happened?"
From the very beginning, Sima Kongming did not support Ying Tianhong's journey to the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons. Now that the situation on the Hidden Dragon List is over, don't make any mistakes in the meantime, just wait for that day to come.
However, Ying Tianhong has a gambler's mentality. In his view, this battle in the Ten Thousand Poison Palace is an opportunity to strengthen the Sword Forging Hall. In addition, he has confirmed that he has the great elder of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace under his control. This makes Sima Kongming
There is simply no good reason to continue to object.
As a result, the direction of things became more and more unexpected.
In the first test, all four city lords' armies were wiped out, and it was revealed that the opponent had two more monster-level Grand Masters, which made Sima Kongming even more convinced that Ying Tianhong was seeking skin from a tiger.
But at this time, the basic situation has been decided. Even if he sends reinforcements, he will not be able to help. He may even get himself involved if he is not careful.
More importantly, the fact that Ying Tianhong was on the side of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace could not be exposed, so all he could do was wait.
After all kinds of messy news spread throughout Jiuzhou, and after it was confirmed that the two monster-level grand masters were Tuoba Jin of Beiman and Zhu Wuyan of Qinglong Pavilion.
He became more and more anxious, not because of the deep friendship between him and Ying Tianhong, but because as an important part of the Qianlong Bang situation, the location must be determined on the Knife Mountain of the Forging Knife Hall.
But if Ying Tianhong, the master of the Sword Forging Hall, dies, then it will be difficult to say where the event will be held. After all, the news about the Hidden Dragon Ranking has not yet been fully disclosed.
Even if changes were made now, it would only affect his Sima Kongming plan.
Then Sima Kongming took a deep breath and began to listen carefully to Ying Wuque's story.
In Ying Wuque's story, Ying Tianhong is very bold.
Even though he was on the weakest side, he was able to compete with the other two monster-level grandmasters through the threat of the subsequent Qianlong Ranking and his fall to Shiliu Scorpion.
The cooperation went smoothly at the beginning, and the four city main armies that were wiped out also showed that the combined strength of all parties at that time was no less than that of Mu Che's Zhou Mu Army.
But after Mu Che launched a siege and launched a decisive battle, everything began to go into chaos.
"Wait a minute. According to your father's guess, Zhu Wuyan's target is the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace. Is Tuoba Jin planning to create a barrier to severely injure Mu Che?"
Ying Wuwei nodded, then shook his head and said:
"This should be the case with Pavilion Master Zhu, but it's hard to say with Tuoba Jin. My father felt that the barrier was a bit strange, and he should have a deeper purpose.
It was also because of this that when the decisive battle began, my father felt that he could not continue to fight passively, so he decided to join forces with Palace Master Shi."
"Then why are you the only one who escaped?" Sima Kongming's mental power tightly wrapped around Ying Wuque, and as long as the other party had the slightest hint of something wrong with his expression, he would be discovered.
And Ying Wuque said with pain on his face at this moment:
"At that time, my father and Master Shi suddenly had a quarrel. Due to the mental barrier set up, I could not hear their conversation.
But Palace Master Shi unleashed all his aura and pressure, which also caused me to suffer internal injuries.
Later, when they took down the mental barrier, I heard my father say that we will all be a family from now on, but Palace Master Shi said that we have to fulfill the promise first before it counts.
Because my strength was low and I was injured, my father suggested that I leave first, otherwise his identity would be easily exposed.
In addition, it was also the first time for me to participate in this kind of innate-level battle, so I was inevitably a little scared, so I evacuated from the tunnel arranged by the Lord of the Stone Palace early, and I don’t know what happened next...
..
Senior, what happened to my father's side! The news I heard along the way was very confusing. I only knew that Mu Che won, but the damage was also extremely serious."
Sima Kongming frowned slightly and waved his hand to stop Ying Wuque from continuing to ask.
His mind was thinking about the information revealed in Ying Wuque's words, and began to restore the truth about Ying Tianhong's family and the promises made by Shi Liuxie, including the previous quarrel between the two.
In the situation of being surrounded and killed, as two grasshoppers on the same thread, neither Shi Liuxia nor Ying Tianhong would deliberately create conflicts at this moment.
But with Ying Tianhong's gambler's mentality, it is possible to gain more benefits through this.
In the Ten Thousand Poison Palace at that time, apart from many years of collections, the one with the highest value was probably Shi Liuxie.
Thinking back to the so-called family rhetoric, and when Ying Tianhong met him, he had the ambition to make him, the chief arrester of the six sects, his deputy hall leader.
Then the truth is obvious!
"What a madman!" Sima Kong cursed openly and secretly.
Based on speculation about his situation, Shi Liuxia would most likely ask Ying Tianhong to help him inflict heavy damage on the Yin Feng Army, and he might even have to kill Mu Che before agreeing to join his army.
As a former evil lord, it was impossible for Shiliu Xie to escape in such a disgraceful state. He must give him a revenge with heavy casualties!
Then in order to impress Shi Liuxie, Ying Tianhong showed enough courage and decided to stay.
If he succeeds in this matter, there is no doubt that Sima Kongming will applaud him, and he will not even mind lowering his head in the next plan.
But it is obvious that a gambler cannot win all the time.
Thinking of this, Sima Kongming's brows wrinkled more and more tightly.
‘There must be something fishy in it. The issue of the barrier can be ignored for the time being. The three snake-headed monsters circulated from within the Silver Trap Army should be the source of Shiliu Scorpion’s confidence.
But what about the sudden burst of earthly calamity fire, the black flame gate that broke the barrier, and the final heavenly calamity thunder?"
Then Sima Kongming looked at Ying Wuque again, and saw that he seemed to understand something, or in other words, he had thought of the answer along the way, but it was only at this moment that through Sima Kongming's reaction, he had to face this fact.
At this time, tears continued to streak down his cheeks, and his subconsciously biting lips seemed to be still stubbornly denying the truth.
But the pain that was about to overflow in his eyes had already confirmed the answer in his heart.
Then the injuries that had been suppressed in his body began to explode due to excessive grief. Ying Wuque looked up to the sky and spat out a mouthful of blood, and then he fainted.
