Chapter 444: Clichés
There was no cheer, no gratitude, and when Xu Ye and the others came back with all the hunters, no one knew that it was he and Fang Qingxue who launched a surprise attack from behind when they fought with Shang Tuzong.
Back in the city, the hunters they had sheltered thanked them and left. They survived and harvested a large number of desolate beast corpses, and in the shortest possible time, they transformed these gains into wealth such as spirit stones and treasures, and this "windfall" was enough for them to squander for a long time.
The focus of Xu Ye and the others was only on Shang Tuzong.
No matter what reason Fang Qinglong was for agreeing to Shang Tu Sect to enter the city and "return", now they have become the most powerful force in the entire Holy Mountain City.
Before they figured out the division of forces within the Shang Tu Sect, even the various families at the top of the Holy Dragon, including the Fang family, might not be able to compare to the Shang Tu Sect in terms of strength.
Understanding is mutual, and they will find a way to figure out the truth of Shang Tu Sect - when they left the Holy Mountain City, there were still many families with Shang Tu Sect. Now that he is returning, of course, it can't be just Shang Tu Zong.
But Xu Ye had not been in Shangtu Sect for a long time, and he already knew that the three major families and the Fang family were not of the same mind. Could it be that Shang Tuzong knew later than he did?
Especially Xu Guanghui had just lost a duel with himself, and it was for Fang Qingxue, the daughter of Fang Qinglong. Defeated in front of everyone, no matter how deeply Xu Guanghui was wounded, his image was ruined in the Holy Mountain City.
The Xu family is likely to put their grudges on the Fang family, and the entire Xu family may become the target of Shang Tuzong's use.
Fang Qingxue took Xu Ye and the others all the way to the third floor of the Holy Mountain City, but even she couldn't see Fang Qinglong and the other core high-level leaders of the Holy Dragon Peak now.
"When will I be able to participate in high-level discussions, it feels bad to be in a hurry and have to work outside. "Although Fang Qingxue is equivalent to the princess of Holy Mountain City, there is nothing she can do at this time.
Xu Ye's eyes burned. The sigh in his heart was actually no less than Fang Qingxue, but he recognized earlier that if he wanted to get enough status, he must first have the strength to match. Defeating Xu Dahui is only the first step, sooner or later he will also become an existence that the Holy Mountain City must look up to.
Originally, they wanted to rest and wait for news, but they happened to see Wei Zhanhai also enter the third layer, and his face seemed to be a little anxious. During the decisive battle with Xu Dahui, Wei Zhanhai was ordered to help them, so everyone can be regarded as having a certain friendship. The two immediately walked over.
"I really have an urgent matter to meet the Holy Lord, please pass it on to the two of you. ”
Wei Zhanhai was also stopped without surprise. It is estimated that Fang Qinglong and the others are in the process of agreeing with the top management of the Shang Tu Sect on their status and regional division after their return - no matter how many people from the Shang Tu Sect return, first of all, people must have a place to stay, and at the same time, they must also take precautions, before they personally feel the "sincerity" of their return, at least it is impossible for the Holy Dragon Peak to let down their guard against them.
Even if Wei Zhanhai had something big to report, it was impossible to let him in. However, Xu Yedao was very interested in Wei Zhanhai's affairs.
Because the timing of Wei Zhanhai's "important matter" report at this moment is too coincidental. Others didn't know, but Xu Ye understood that the time when Wei Zhanhai left the Holy Mountain City corresponded to the time when he competed with Xu Dahui - it was also equivalent to the time period when Shang Tuzong haunted.
Wei Zhanhai was ordered to go out of the city and return at this time, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it might have something to do with Shang Tuzong - even if he guessed wrong, there was no loss.
"Brother Wei, I haven't thanked you for taking care of us during this time, the battle just ended outside the city, do you have anything to report to the Holy Lord?"
Wei Zhanhai saw that it was Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue, and said hesitantly: "This matter was arranged by the Holy Lord himself, and it stands to reason that I should report it directly to the Holy Lord." ”
If it's just Xu Ye's words, it's easier to say, but it's more troublesome to take Fang Qingxue, he has to be tactful enough.
Xu Ye had a good impression of him, and he didn't want to really use Fang Qingxue's identity to pressure him: "Brother Wei...... It must have been discovered that Shang Tuzong's follow-up troops had been discovered, and their movements seemed to be unfavorable to the Holy Mountain City?"
Wei Zhanhai said in surprise: "You, how do you know!"
Xu Ye smiled slightly. He already has an understanding of Wei Zhanhai's character. The use of strong pressure on him is actually counterproductive, and the most effective way to break his psychological defenses is to be surprised.
If it was the information he already knew, then Wei Zhanhai would no longer have to keep it secret, and the chance of coming out of the mouth of this "honest man" would increase greatly.
"Brother Wei, when Shangtuzong and my Holy Mountain City were at the city gate before, you were not the only one outside the city, we also had our own gains. ”
Xu Ye didn't lie to him, he didn't say that the information he knew was the same thing as what Wei Zhanhai wanted to report.
"Well, I'm convinced. It was already a miracle to defeat Xu Dahui at Shengfeng Terrace, and he was able to quickly kill outside the city, survive the fierce beast rushing into the city, and still get key information. ”
"The pressure on Shang Tu Sect is too great, so we have to do more and think more. Every time the Holy Lord gets more information, we will have more confidence when facing the Shangtu Sect. ”
Xu Ye relied on this somewhat vague statement to lower Wei Zhanhai's vigilance even faster.
Since they couldn't see Fang Qinglong for a while, they left the third floor of the Holy Mountain together and returned to the lower level to find a place to rest and exchange information.
"Shang Tuzong definitely has no good intentions!" Wei Zhanhai drew a rough map on the table with tea in his hand, "Let's not talk about the fact that they drove the fierce beasts to rush the city, let's talk about the problem of strength." We can't test how much power the Shang Tu Sect hides at all. ”
"Even if they were to be 'open and honest' about the location they had been hiding during the negotiations, it would have been empty. All we get is a stronghold to go deep into the territory of demons and beasts. ”
"I was ordered to sneak into the depths of the Holy Mountain in advance, just waiting for the arrival of the Shang Tu Sect. So I can't be exposed when you're at the height of your fighting. Sure enough, a large number of masters appeared at the rear, and their appearance did not look like they were going to be exposed at all. If something is abnormal, there will be demons, since it is said that such an arrangement is unreasonable to return to the Holy Mountain City. ”
"We are completely on the same page, but the key is what exactly they are going to do with the people who are hiding. ”
"You're not from the Shangtu Sect, and they won't tell you what they want to do. That's why Wei Zhanhai wanted to report to Fang Qinglong quickly.
"Hehe, so we can think differently. Find out how powerful they are in ambush, and then calculate what they can do!"
Wei Zhanhai's expression was shocked, and his thoughts were opened.
"Figured it out, we are indeed not members of the Shangtu Sect, but knowing their strength and knowing that their target must be on the Holy Mountain City, there are too many things that can be analyzed. ”
The main enemies that Sacred Mountain City has faced for a long time are indeed demons and desolate beasts, but they have never lacked internal strife from within the human race!
It's ridiculous to say.
Everyone knows how terrible and powerful the demons and beasts are, and everyone understands that at some point, the demons and beasts will be able to wipe out all the human defenses and trample everyone to death like ants before they see hope!
Even so, it is still impossible to stop the intrigue and power struggle within mankind - not for a moment!
Therefore, in essence, there are traces of the conspiracy that the Shang Tu sect may have adopted.
Wei Zhanhai found a new direction, although Shang Tuzong had arranged it in advance, it was difficult for them to dig out all the opponent's strength, but they could still grasp the general situation.
Thinking of this, he was quite impressed by how quickly he reacted to Xu Ye's thoughts. Although the other party is much younger than himself, his experience and mind are above him.
has always been incompatible with everyone with a stereotypical personality, but Wei Zhanhai talked quite speculatively with Xu Ye.
Fang Qingxue never interjected or took advantage of her identity, but watched coldly as Xu Ye dealt with it. In Xu Ye's body, there seems to be a special quality. When treating everyone, people will not be hostile to him, Xu Ye can think about problems and inspire each other from the other party's position and ideas, and slowly, everyone will be attracted by his personality charm.
Fang Qingxue knew very well how much impact this quality would have, although Xu Ye's status was very low now, it was impossible for him to compete with Fang Haoqiang, but over time, the power he could control would become stronger and stronger.
In the future, his lover will definitely become a big man who stands up to the sky!
Xu Ye and Wei Zhanhai were talking speculatively, when they suddenly heard a loud commotion on the street not far away.
"Someone seems to be moving over there!"
"There are so many troubles today, and the Holy Mountain City is unstable. But to be able to make such a big fuss at this time...... It can't be a peripheral member of the Shang Tu Sect, right? Let's go! Go over and have a look!"
Xu Ye and the others reacted instantly.
It would be interesting if the excitement over there was really Shangtuzong's trouble. Although they all knew that Shang Tuzong was not really returning, but had a different mind, it was impossible to make trouble as soon as he came back.
- Didn't you do any work on your face?The elder-level masters of the Shang Tu Sect are all in talks with Fang Qinglong, they shouldn't have any masters!
Therefore, it can be judged that it is definitely an unexpected event now, which is beyond the expectations of Shang Tu Sect.
When I arrived, there were already a lot of people surrounded there, and after a little inquiry, it was really the people of Shangtuzong who made trouble. After further inquiry, it was even more surprising.
It was the people of the Xu family who were in conflict with them!
The Xu family of the three major families at the top of the Holy Dragon!
"It's just inexplicable! A group of 'outsiders' who have just returned to the Holy Mountain City dare to provoke the Xu family, one of the three major families! I think the Holy Lord is too merciful to them! They just shouldn't be let in!"
"It's not even half a day, it's been revealed, but I've heard that the Shangtu Sect harmed many of our brothers during the Battle of the City Gate!
"The Xu family is playing well!
Of course, all the onlookers stood on the side of the Xu family.
