Chapter 479: Hidden Worries
Fang Zhongyan pointed to this palace and said, "Do you know how the Holy Dragon Clan got to their current status back then and was worshiped as the co-owner of the Holy Mountain City?
"You can indeed trust Qin Pingbo and Mr. Mu Er. However, even with their respective positions in the Qin Mu family, it was impossible to really help the Fang family. Because no one can eliminate the ambitions of the three major families in the current situation. And as long as one or two of them have the ambition to really do it, it will directly evolve into a confrontation between the family!"
"Victory is the king and the loser, as long as their launch fails, it will inevitably be a catastrophe that implicates the entire family. Do you think that under such circumstances, Qin Pingbo and Mr. Mu Er would still firmly maintain the original order, and would they really be able to influence many elders and masters in their respective families?"
Fang Lisong also fell silent, and the enthusiasm just now disappeared without a trace.
They all know how heavy the burden of the family is, and in many cases, it is true that individuals do not have to make choices. Such as Qin Pingbo and Mr. Mu Er, they can completely ignore their personal safety at the critical juncture of the Holy Dragon, and accompany them to enter the Longtan Tiger's Den.
But under pressure from the family, they will probably have to be consistent with the family.
What I am most afraid of is the situation that Fang Zhongyan said. The ambitious generations of the three major families preemptively launched without family consultation, and "hijacked" the entire family to participate in their rebellion.
Fang Qingxue shook her head and said, "It's not important to guess the attitude of the three major families now, what matters is what we should do!"
Xu Ye said: "We can only adopt the strategy of loosening the outside and tightening the inside, there is another point that is beneficial to us, until now, the Holy Dragon Clan is still the nominal ruler of the Holy Mountain City, we can mobilize the forces of the whole city to impose martial law, and increase the obstacles for the three major families to attack." ”
"In particular, the Praetorian Guards can move freely throughout the city in the name of defending the whole city and guarding against the remnants of the Shang Tu Sect
"Secondly, we must pay attention to the movements of the demons and the desolate beast races, and strengthen the connection with the frontline military camps such as the border gate city to make them more vigilant. ”
"Border Pass?" Fang Zhongyan said anxiously: "What time is it now! Where can we still take care of the border pass! According to the latest report, the invading demons have already suffered a huge blow, and it is impossible to organize a second large-scale invasion in a short period of time. ”
"The desolate beast races were driven away by the actions of the Shang Tu Sect and stormed the city once, and the unrelated races went away to avoid the trouble, not wanting to confront the Shang Tu Sect head-on. Now that the Shang Tu Sect has hit hard, the first thing they have to do is to return to their original territory and stabilize themselves, and the devil knows when they can pose a threat to the Holy Mountain City. ”
"If you really want to talk about it, maybe the remnants of the Shangtu Sect are more threatening. Their attempt to Sacred Mountain City failed, and the ambush battle was severely damaged. It's easiest to lose your mind in such a situation!"
Xu Ye nodded and said, "I agree with Shang Tuzong's judgment. It is impossible for their remaining strength to hold out outside the city for a long time, and instead of being wiped out by the returning beast tribes, they may frantically destroy the city of La Holy Mountain and bury them. ”
Humans are dominated by reason most of the time, but when they are on the verge of despair, they tend to behave more madly and destructively than the beasts.
"But since we are still the rulers of the Holy Mountain City, we also have to shoulder the responsibility in addition to the convenience of obtaining this position. In fact, this Shangtu Sect's action could not be concealed from the eyes of the Desolate Beast Clans and even the demons. That is, they probably understood what they wanted to do much earlier than the Holy Mountain City. ”
Fang Zhongyan said puzzledly: "Isn't that normal? Although the Holy Mountain City has cleared out an area that has become a relatively safe place, as long as it is outside the Holy Mountain City, it is considered an area where desolate beasts and demons are active, not to mention that the hiding place of the Shangtu Sect must be even deeper. ”
"Don't you think the attitude of demons and beasts is a little strange in this matter?"
Fang Lisong sighed and said, "What's strange, the human race has been fighting with them for so many years, and although there are also good races, they are still mortal enemies in general. Seeing that there is infighting among human beings, they are afraid that it is too late to be happy. ”
Xu Ye cautiously reminded: "But before that, the people of Shang Tu Sect and Holy Mountain City have already split, and there is no possibility of cooperating with each other. ”
"Cut, young man, don't you think that the two forces can cooperate in battle now?"
"No, but the demons and desolate beasts don't know about Shang Tu Sect's plans. They couldn't speculate in advance whether the changes in the Shangtu Sect would allow them to really get the ruling power of the Holy Mountain City smoothly, or if they would be easily destroyed, so that the Holy Mountain City would completely absorb the power of the Shangtu Sect. ”
"The latter two may either happen, it will increase the power of the Holy Mountain City after the war, and it will never be a good thing for the demons and desolate beasts. Are they really so big as to not interfere at all?"
For low-level demons and desolate beasts, their bloodthirsty instinct is their greatest characteristic, and they do seem stupid and stupid. But the confrontation with the Holy Mountain City has long been out of this level.
There are also talents among demons and wild beasts, and they will formulate tactics that are not weaker than humans, so what Xu Ye mentioned really seems a little strange.
If you really want to say what they have done, Xu Ye's only clue is Yun Zongfei. The Cloud-winged Crane clan took practical action to stop Shang Tuzong's actions.
Yun Zongfei's assistance was by no means just a powerful combat force, without his intelligence, the time for himself and Wei Zhanhai to return would have been delayed for at least two days, and even if Fang Qinglong had already been vigilant, they would not have had time to stop Shang Tuzong.
It is an exaggeration to say that if there is no Yun Zongfei, they will not say that they will be defeated, and now the Holy Mountain City may really be facing the onslaught of the Shang Tu Sect.
"We're not trying to figure out the plans of the demons and beasts to stop them right now, but the necessary vigilance still needs to be done. If the external pressure is really strong enough to threaten the entire Holy Mountain City, maybe the three major families will also be forced to unite more with us, increasing their concerns about initiating internal strife. ”
Fang Zhongyan and Fang Lisong both felt a little ashamed, they found that the angle they were thinking about was not as good as that of Xu Ye, a young man from a foreign family.
Perhaps it is because he is relatively shallow under the influence of the opposition of the top of the Holy Dragon, and he will not be constrained by various rules and regulations, and he can see the problem from a broader perspective than himself and others.
"Hearing you say that, I instead hope that the demons and desolate beasts will act quickly, and it is best to attract the attention of the Qin Mu family. ”
Fang Qingxue said worriedly: "What about the Xu family, their current situation is even more dangerous. ”
"It's hard to say, the Xu family's own problems are very big, and it looks like the two sides are on the verge of a civil war, but they can also become a flashpoint for troubles in Shengshan City. For Xu Hongli, he may choose to jump off the wall in a hurry. ”
Because of Fang Qingxue and Xu Ye's position, it was obvious that the Holy Dragon Clan would stand on the side of Elder Xu San and Elder Xu Liu, and of course there would not be much respect for Xu Hongli in terms of language.
Everyone judged them in unison.
In terms of strength, the challenges of the Xu family are the last thing they need to pay attention to, but their challenges may cause a series of conflicts. With the Holy Dragon Clan's control over the Holy Mountain City today, it would be troublesome.
After determining the general direction, with the experience of Fang Lisong and Fang Zhongyan, it is still easy to determine various detailed measures. No one knows if they can get the favor of the Mandate of Heaven, but in terms of personnel, the two of them are worthy of the only remaining core elder of the Holy Dragon Clan.
The bustle dissipated, everyone made personnel arrangements, and only Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue were left in the palace.
Guarding such a large palace makes the two of them feel lonely, and only the temperature that the two can give each other.
"Xu Ye, are you still worried?" Actually, Fang Qingxue was not much better.
"I always felt like we were missing something. The judgment of demons and beasts is too crude. ”
Xu Ye walked around anxiously: "Since we repelled the demon army in the border pass city and returned to the Holy Mountain City, we have sent out various major events one after another, and now it seems that there is no news about them all of a sudden. That's changing too fast, isn't it?"
"I'm really worried that the Qin Mu family will not be able to hold their breath now. It's not for the status of the Holy Dragon Clan, but they may really push the Holy Mountain City into another crisis. ”
"But we can't do it. I specifically asked Elder Lisong, there are very few basic confrontations on the front line now, the demons have really retreated, and we are powerless to monitor the various tribes of the desolate beasts, and the launch of the Shang Tu Sect not only ambushed my father, but also directly hunted down our reconnaissance masters outside. ”
"Otherwise, can we ask Xia Yun Zongfei. He doesn't mean anything to us, and he might reveal something. ”
Fang Qingxue didn't know that Xu Ye's doubts started from Yun Zongfei.
That's right, although Yun Zongfei has been competing with him in the team and wants to win or lose by attacking Shang Tuzong, the two also have a feeling of sympathy for each other.
Yun Zongfei really has no ill will towards humans, all he wants is to attack the Shang Tu Sect.
However, the attitude of the Cloud Winged Crane clan he represents has already faintly revealed alarming information. The Cloudwing Crane clan is already a human-friendly race.
The main battle faction among the various races of the Desolate Beasts is even more powerful, and their plan for this change is even more chilling.
"We should still meet Qin Pingbo and Mr. Mu Er in the next few days. I don't want them to really suppress the forces within the family, at least I hope they can share some of the defense responsibilities of the Holy Mountain City. ”
The Praetorian Guards are the most reliable deterrent to the Holy Dragon Clan at this moment, so try to avoid scattering them. If you want to grasp the situation outside the Holy Mountain, you need to rely on them.
Persuading them with the interests of the Holy Mountain City should have a good effect.
