It can be called a cake selling incident, and naturally it is not as simple as buying a cake alone and then being manipulated in the cake.

After all, the people of the Xuanji Sect are not stupid.

In fact, the cake selling incident is actually a continuous tragedy, and the specific process can be said to be extremely complicated, and even now 'Zulian' has not figured out how it happened.

But what is certain is that the original point of the incident was a branch of the Xuanji Sect, and the cause was an almost inconspicuous farce.

The Xuanji Sect's rudder received an anonymous letter.

The content of the letter was very simple, and the general meaning was that within five days someone would attack one of the co-helmsmen of the sub-helmsman, and the information received was that the opponent was disguised as a cake seller in the city.

When such a letter was sent to the helmsman of the rudder, the expression of the rudder owner was a little complicated, believe it or not is one thing, the most important thing is that there is more than one deputy helmsman in the rudder, and the merchants selling cakes in the city, including the stalls that set up temporary stalls, have at least dozens of them, and there are nearly a thousand people involved.

Which co-helmsman will be attacked?

Who is this one disguised as a cake seller?

The helmsman's head really hurts......

But even so, he quickly ordered the whole city to be searched, and it was imperative to nip this kind of thing that was unfavorable to the Xuanji Sect in the bud.

However, there is still a big difference between doing and doing.

Even a force like the Xuanji Sect still couldn't find that definite target among the thousands of people involved in cakes, and only found a few suspicious people.

Five days passed quickly, and the assassination of the co-rudder mentioned in the letter did not become a fact, but the rudder received an anonymous letter again.

The content is the same, it is still five days, and there is a cake seller who wants to hack a co-helmsman.

"your black hands!" The helmsman became angry on the spot, and as soon as his hand was raised, the anonymous letter was torn to shreds, and the matter was over.

Then, five days passed, and the co-helmsmen were still fine, and the anonymous letter was delivered on time again, and nothing else had changed.

Of course, if there are changes, there are also changes, for example: the helmsman will speak directly, and if there is an anonymous letter in the future, you don't need to hand it over to him, just deal with it yourself.

Then......

Something happened.

One dark and windy night, a deputy helmsman went out late at night and did not return, and the next day, the body was found at the gate of the city, and on the corpse, there was still a bite of the cake.

"......" Lord Helmsman was in a depressed mood, and then, this matter was naturally reported to the Xuanji Sect, and it was decided by the people above.

However, how could the people above make a decision on the rudder? The order was immediately sent back again, and the rudder sent someone to continue the investigation.

However, how should the rudder be investigated? It is impossible to kill all the bread sellers in the city? There is no way to investigate this kind of thing.

The days to come will be more and more exciting.

From time to time, the rudder would receive an anonymous letter, one day a cake seller would assassinate the wife of the deputy helmsman, and tomorrow a cake seller would assassinate the steward of the rudder.

In short, the target of assassination is changing all the time, but the identity of the assassin is always to sell bread.

In this way, it naturally made the people in the rudder panic, coupled with the impetus of the successive real assassinations, as well as the various cakes found on the corpse, Xuanji Sect finally became angry.

Under the order, all the cake sellers in the city were intimidated, although they were not directly killed, but they were all arrested and strictly investigated.

And the result of this is naturally obvious, there are no more cake sellers in the city, so it is naturally impossible to buy even a piece of cake in the city of Nuoda.

What are the consequences......

Of course, it also caused dissatisfaction among the people, and the voices of the people in the whole city were boiling, and they demanded that Xuanjizong divide the rudder and return the people of Fucheng to a life with bread to eat.

And at this time, Xuanjizong finally received an anonymous letter again, the content of the letter was almost the same as before, the only difference was that the cake seller became a vegetable seller.

The helmsman of "......" was stunned at that time, and under strong public pressure, he chose to release the cake seller, and then turned the direction of the investigation to the vegetable seller.

However, after being arrested, the cake seller who was released again ran half of the way in one night, after all, no prefecture could sell a cake to make a living.

As the saying goes, with a skill in hand, I have it in the world!

In order to live more freely and safely, the people who sold the bread moved out of the city and moved to a new city to start a life of peace and contentment.

Then, after several assassinations, the vegetable sellers in the city were attacked again.

The hard-working vegetable sellers were arrested and tortured for no reason, not to mention that there were more than half of the cakes in the big city, and now they can't even buy vegetables.

Wrath!

The anger of the population is surging!

After seeing this strong public indignation, the dynasty naturally reprimanded loudly, and the vegetable sellers in the city finally regained their freedom, but they ran away in one night.

In this way, the days of the Xuanji Sect's rudder division were not very easy, and everyone who traveled was pointed at by the people, as pitiful as a rat crossing the street.

The glory is gone, and the reputation is gone.

The elite geniuses recruited in the rudder naturally complained, after all, the purpose of their joining the Xuanji Sect was to glorify the ancestors, not to be pointed at behind the backs of people all over the street.

Then, as time passed, the Xuanji Sect finally had to order the rudder of this capital city to be changed from open to dark, and most of the people were evacuated, leaving only a few secret outposts responsible for intelligence gathering.

And with the evacuation of the Xuanji Sect, other sects naturally settled in the capital city one after another, opened the rudder and opened the hall, and recruited elite geniuses, among them, the one with the highest voice was naturally the Shadow Gate.

Because, the Shadow Gate opened dozens of cake shops in the city in one go, and with a special pizza, it won the unanimous love of the people.

Further back......

The same incident was staged in the rudder of the major prefectures occupied by Xuanjizong, and in just one year, Xuanjizong was forced out of several prefectures.

And these mansion cities have been occupied by the Shadow Gate one after another, and that kind of pizza has become a very popular food in this mansion city, not only making a lot of money, but also making the Shadow Gate support the people in the mansion city, and there is a faint tendency to suppress the reputation that the Xuanji Sect has spread for hundreds of years.

One year!

In just one year, Xuanji Sect not only lost the income of several prefectures and cities because of an inconspicuous 'cake', but also lost a great reputation.

How not to get angry?

Zu Lian wasn't stupid, and even if he was stupid, he could still tell that the Shadow Gate was behind the scenes, but the problem was that he had no proof.

In the absence of evidence, the only thing he can do is to start a conflict and start a war with the Shadow Gate in several mansions, but the problem is that the strength of the Shadow Gate is not weak, and he has gained prestige by selling cakes in the mansion city, and the Xuanji Sect will naturally fall behind again if he makes trouble again.

After several conflicts, the prestige of the Xuanji Sect in several prefectures and cities fell again and again, while the Shadow Gate became more and more prosperous, and its business continued to rise.

This is the whole process of the cake selling incident.

Then, how could Zu Lian not be annoyed when he saw the Shadow Gate Wu Yu'er stand up? After all, that was the income of several prefectures.

The most important thing is that the current cake selling incident is still continuing, like a spark of fire, spreading in the territory of the Xuanji Sect, and until now, Zu Lian has not had a very good way to stop this kind of thing from continuing to happen, he can only endure it, not trouble the cake seller, and no longer interrogate the vegetable seller.

However, he could not stop one anonymous letter after another.

Even if, after strengthening their own guards, there are very few assassinations, but occasionally one or two cases will still make the Xuanji Sect speechless.

This feeling is very painful, as if the cure cannot cure the root cause, and it will hurt once or twice from time to time, like the gangrene of the appendage, which makes Zu Lian almost crazy.

"What kind of shameless person did this to Wu Yu'er!" "The Xuanji Sect has been fighting with the Shadow Gate for so many years, and Zu Lian naturally knows some of Wu Yu'er's methods, so he is very sure that Wu Yu'er's strategy alone will never be able to come up with such shameless means.

Of course, now is not the time to discuss this matter, Zu Lian is just venting his anger, after all, the pent-up anger himself, coupled with Wu Yuer's sentence "The Bird's Anzhi Honghu", and that kind of disdainful look, made him really unable to continue to endure.

But the crux of the matter is......

Even though he put on the posture of an elder and showed his anger, Wu Yuer still didn't look at his ancestor much, and continued to put on that kind of disdain and contempt.

"Brain-dead!" Wu Yu'er just replied lightly, and then, she didn't pay attention to Zu Lian anymore, but looked at Mu Qingfeng, waiting for Mu Qingfeng's answer.

"You ......"

"Ancestral Sect Master, Wumen Lord Registration, there is no problem, and now we are discussing here a major event related to the common people in the world, some small festivals between sects, please also ask the ancestor to let go first, if you can't unite sincerely, then, what is the significance of this world alliance?"

Just when Zu Lian wanted to continue to say something, Mu Qingfeng waved his hand at this time, and then he also opened his mouth to persuade.

Zu Lian's eyes narrowed, he looked at the other four sects in the surrounding holy domain, and then looked at the gazes cast by the other sects, and when it came to his mouth, he still didn't continue to talk after all.

But it can be seen that Zu Lian is very angry now, and this prosperity has been reflected in Lian, and his face is a little red like pork liver.

"Okay, my ancestor Lian was rude to the Wumen Lord today, it was my fault, and I would like to make amends here, but I want to see what strength the Shadow Gate led by the Wumen Lord has, which can compete with my Xuanji Sect and the Five Sects of the Holy Domain!"

And Mu Qingfeng didn't continue to talk about this matter, and after his eyes swept around, he also spoke again: "But are there other sects that are willing to sign up?"

“......”

The other sects are looking at me one by one, I am looking at you, after the conversation between the Xuanji Sect and the Shadow Gate just now, they have all seen the hidden "war" in this martial arts competition.

Considering the long-term development of the sect, at this moment, they almost tacitly chose to remain silent at the same time, after all, those young elites represent the future of the sect.

"Since no sect has signed up again, don't waste any more time!" Moshan Shi, the valley master of Fuxi Valley, finally spoke again after waiting for a while.

"Well, thanks to the trust of the masters of the sects and fellow sects, then this martial arts competition will be held between the five gates of the Holy Domain, the Xuanji Sect and the Shadow Gate, and the order of the battle...... It will be decided by drawing lots, do you have any opinions?" Mu Qingfeng heard this, and nodded lightly, announcing loudly.

"No comments!"

"It's fair to draw lots. ”

"Yes, since this World Alliance meeting was convened by the Mu Pavilion Lord, then it would be good for the Mu Pavilion Lord to preside over the rules. ”

Everyone glanced at each other again, and then nodded one after another, and had no opinion on the rules proposed by Mu Qingfeng.

"Okay, then let's start the lottery!" Mu Qingfeng nodded, this time the World Alliance has reached this point, except for a slight adjustment in the rules of the martial arts, the reference between the Xuanji Sect and the Shadow Gate is actually within the scope of his prediction, so Mu Qingfeng is quite satisfied with the current result.

As for the sign of the draw.

Naturally, he had already prepared for it.

As Mu Qingfeng's voice fell, the seven-sided turquoise sign was also sent up by a Heavenly Dao Pavilion disciple, smooth and soft, flashing with a faint brilliance.

"Among these jade cards, there is a hidden number, and the two numbers that are drawn next to each other are the opponents of the first round of the competition, because there are a total of seven sects in this competition, so as long as the jade medal with the number seven is drawn, it will be bye in the first round of the competition, and it will be directly promoted to the second round, do you have any opinions?" Mu Qingfeng pointed to the jade card and said the rules of the lottery.

"No opinion, let's start!" Xuanji Sect Leader Zu Lian quickly spoke, and then glanced at a young disciple behind him.

The young disciple quickly understood the meaning, and after arching his hand towards Mu Qingfeng, he quickly came to the disciple of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion holding the jade plaque, and stretched out his hand to pull out a jade plaque.

Soon, a number also lit up on the jade plate.

"Five!"

"Five, hehe, it's not bad!" Zu Lian nodded with satisfaction, although he was a little disappointed that he didn't have a bye in the number of seven draws, but if he won five, the order of appearance was also at the end of the first round, so that he also had time to look at the strength of the five gates of the Holy Domain first.

"Yin-Yang Palace, the number one has been drawn!" At this time, a voice also sounded, and then, everyone's eyes naturally focused on the disciple of the Yin-Yang Hall who was holding the jade plate with the number "one" in his hand.

"I didn't expect the first one to appear, but I don't know who my opponent of the Yin Yang Hall will be?" The Dao Soul of the Yin Yang Hall Hall also stood up at this moment, and looked at the figure sitting behind the Dao Heart with a Yin Yang mask on his face, and a cold gaze flashed in his eyes.

(Yesterday I temporarily went back to my hometown in Hunan, and I rushed back immediately today, no update, but I'm really tired, sleepy, I owe a chapter, and I'll make it up tomorrow!)
