"It seems..." Shen Yan and others were squatting on the ground in a forest in the Demon Sect's territory, using the surrounding weeds to cover their figures.
They had just arrived from Shangyun City at this time, so they didn't know what the situation was like here.
But after Xu Lian looked at the surrounding environment, he pondered for a moment and then opened his mouth. There was also a look of interest in his eyes.
"I misjudged something"
When Ana Shen heard this, he was a little shocked. With Xu Lian's method, he admitted that he had made a mistake in his judgment, so the meaning of this mistake could be either light or serious.[
"What's that look on your face..." Xu Lian shook his head and smiled helplessly when he saw Ana Shen's appearance.
"But it doesn't matter. If you want to use your own means to get through this fight like a fish in water, you have to see if he has such means."
Qingluo, Hanbei Song and Dieyi wouldn't care about the life and death of Wanjian Sect if it weren't for Shen Yan.
Therefore, although Xu Lian's words at this time were extremely inconsistent and strange, no one took them to heart, including Ye Donglai, who only raised his eyebrows slightly and looked like he was concerned about the matter.
"Stop, stop, stop, please explain who he is first. Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?" Shen Yan saw Xu Lian showing some interest and immediately interrupted him.
"Well~ I think you must have seen that one before."
Xu Lian smiled inexplicably and saw that Shen Yan wanted to ask something else, so he spoke directly again.
"These are minor issues. If I am not mistaken, all the forces should have been forced out by now."
"What do you mean?" Shen Yan was stunned by his words, but the expression on his face became more and more confused and confused.
"Xu Lian, can you please explain half of what you want to say and leave the other half? Just explain to me once and for all what you want to express. Is it necessary to go to such trouble?"
"Can you please stop interrupting me?" Xu Lian's face suddenly darkened and he yelled at Ana Shen.
"Obviously I can't even listen to what you said..." Shen Yan pursed his lips, but he also understood that if he wanted to know what happened now, he seemed to have the only ordinary answer from Xu Lian.
"If you don't understand, that only means you are ignorant." Xu Lian laughed angrily but could only snort coldly.
"What... If you don't believe me, ask Brother Ye and Bei Song. They must not understand what you are talking about. It is impossible that we all have problems with our IQs and are just ignorant."
Shen Yan naturally didn't want to be called ignorant. He knew that he had seen a lot in China. Why did he feel like a child who didn't even know the words when he arrived at Xu Lian's place?
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Lian's eyelids raised slightly and he lightly glanced at Qingluo, Ye Donglai and others who were stunned by Ana Shen's inquiry.
So Ana Shen saw a scene that stunned him. Several other people squatting on the ground actually shook their heads to show that they actually understood what Xu Lian was talking about.
"You... you..." Ana Shen stammered and looked at everyone with disbelief.
"They are just stating a fact." Xu Lian shrugged his shoulders and saw that Ana Shen's expression was somewhat sullen, so he stopped dwelling on this topic [
"Of course this is not the crux of the problem. The reason why I concluded that all the forces have been provoked is just a judgment based on the surrounding environment."
Ye Donglai pondered for a moment and then his eyes fell on Xu Lian.
"How to say"
Xu Lian stretched out his hand and pointed around, then pondered for a moment to organize his words.
"All the forces gathered here under an order... But because they don't know the details of the opponent, which force dares to take action without authorization? After all, if the hidden cards of a certain force are much stronger than what is revealed, then they will appear. If you lose your head, you will be eliminated.”
"Under such a situation, all the forces have only one choice: waiting for Ouyang Lan to arrive. This will be an opportunity. Then all people will unite to start the conquest of Zi Zi Mo Sect under the order of the imperial court, so there is no need to care about the order."
Although Shen Yan secretly retaliated against Xu Lian for his previous actions after leaving Yun City, he still listened carefully to what the other party said.
However, he became even more confused and had no choice but to nod his head following the gaze that happened to be cast by Xu Liang.
"You should be wrong to say this... but if that's the case, then why do you say that these forces will directly start tit-for-tat while Ouyang Lan is still in a hurry?"
Xu Liannai sighed
"Can you please stop interrupting me? It's not just half of what I said, but you just killed the other half."
"Ah" Ana Shen was surprised
Xu Lian glanced at him calmly. Sina passed by in a flash and didn't care about anything with Shen Yan.
"Of course I am wrong about what I said before, but these are all based on one of the most critical points, that is, all forces have equal and balanced knowledge of each other."
"And this is where my judgment was wrong... Among these forces, one or at least two parties have a lot of information about other forces, such as the status of their top experts and how many of them they are..."
"Have you suffered any injuries during the prelude that could affect the outcome of the battle?"
Seeing that he had no intention of stopping speaking, Ana Shen hurriedly stretched out her hand to interrupt him.
"Wait a minute, what do you mean by prelude?"
"The prelude is of course the preparation before the clean-up...for example, what happened when you were in Snow Cloud Swamp"
"Snow cloud swamp" Shen Yan's eyes lit up and then he shook his head.
"It's a pity... I didn't know who else was on the Xueyun border when I sneaked in. Logically speaking, those forces should have followed Dieyi into the Xueyun swamp. Why are there still forces willing to stay outside?" Just to observe the powerful forces from all sides that have emerged, do you have to give up the opportunity that may be the first to get there?"
Xu Liangzi listened carefully to what he said and then began to ponder for a while before he came back to his senses [
"This also means that there is a slightly smarter person in that force. He understands very well that the power to decide on the matter of cleaning up the situation is not in your own hands but in the hands of the dynasty."
"Even if all the forces followed Dieyi into the Snow Cloud Swamp at that time, he still had to worry. After all, the dynasty had issued a formal order. If these forces acted without permission, it would be a crime worthy of death."
"Fortunately, the cultivators of these many forces are not too stupid. After all, they still have the courage to officially start a war in Snow Cloud Swamp. If these forces started a war in Snow Cloud Swamp at that time, I think now they would have been directly charged with disobeying the imperial order and acting without authorization. was disintegrated.”
The more Ana Shen listened, the brighter his eyes became. After hearing everything Xu Lian said, he suddenly understood
"The imperial dynasty's methods are really powerful..."
"Are you an idiot?" Xu Lian glanced at him coldly. "The point is not here. In order to maintain its absolute right to rule, the power of the dynasty that dares to overstep its authority and act privately is inevitable."
Without waiting for Ana Shen to react, Xu Lian murmured to himself again.
"But I'm very curious about how there could be a battle when multiple forces meet in a terrain like Snow Cloud Swamp. Under that situation, as long as there is any small or medium-sized battle, it will completely ignite the entire Snow Cloud Swamp general. It has become a place where many forces consider themselves to be the final battlefield.”
Ana Shen opened his mouth but saw that Ye Dong looked like this... At that moment, he couldn't help but shut his mouth and let the latter tell what happened in Xueyun Swamp at that time
Unexpectedly, when Ye Dong saw him shut up, he was slightly startled and said that Ana Shen was unwilling to tell the news about the great elder, so he swallowed back the words he had not yet spoken.
In fact, he had no idea that Shen Yan had connected the heaven-piercing sword rain and superior power with the great elder.
Xu Lian's brows suddenly furrowed. After a moment, his expression returned to calm.
"If my estimate is wrong... then there were actually a lot of small and medium-sized battles in Snow Cloud Swamp at that time, but the reason why it completely ignited the battle situation is that"
"At that time, there were people with such great power that they completely suppressed all the forces and even the fight against each other was forgotten for the time being." Although Xu Lian's voice was calm, it carried a kind of confidence that could not be ignored.
(No, you can guess this) Shen Yan's heart trembled secretly
(Am I really too stupid for this guy?) Ye Dong’s mouth twitched slightly and then he thought to himself
(Xu Lian was probably not in Xueyun Swamp at the time, so he knew everything clearly...) Qing Luo didn't know what she was thinking. She had paid attention to what Xu Lian was saying from the beginning, but at this time she heard this. At that moment, I had some doubts in my heart.
(This Xu Lian... is too scary... simply too scary) Dieyi's complexion changed slightly and her heart almost started to scream.
(What are they talking about?) Hanbei Song muttered to himself and then calmed down, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Xu Lian turned a blind eye to everyone's expressions. After saying the previous sentence, he pondered again.
"And that person... why would he suddenly take action against all forces or all living creatures in the entire Snow Cloud Swamp?"
Ana Shen heard Xu Lian's muttering and shouted directly
"Don't think about those things. Even if someone wants to wipe out the Snow Cloud Swamp, it has something to do with us. You should continue to talk about how to make the Wanjian Sect successfully break out of this matter."
