Chapter 164: Trade-offs, Helpless Choices!
The Blood Shadow Sect had come to the capital three days ago.
The first thing the Blood Shadow Sect did when they came to the capital was to meet with the Deputy Sect Master of the Xiaoyao Sect who had just arrived here.
The two major sects chatted for a day, and no one knew what they were talking about.
But since the next day, the Xiaoyao Sect and the Blood Shadow Sect have been able to put on a pair of pants.
The Xiaoyao Sect and the Blood Shadow Sect, they visited the major sects that came here one by one.
Xiao Batian, the deputy sect master of the Xiaoyao Sect, is a cultivator of the eighth layer of Shenyuan, he takes more than fifty martial artists of the eighth and ninth layers of the gods and more than twenty martial artists of the second and third layers of the Shenyuan.
The leader of the Blood Shadow Sect this time was the Third Elder of the Inner Gate, named Blood Dragon Feather.
The cultivation of the Blood Dragon Feather was the peak of the ninth layer of the Shenyuan, and he followed Xiao Batian to go in and out of the major sects.
Blood Dragon Feather was also followed by a group of martial artists, but the number of these martial artists was very small, only ten people.
But among these ten people, the lowest cultivation is also the fifth layer of Shenyuan.
It is precisely for this reason that the Xiaoyao Sect is so happy to form an alliance with the Blood Shadow Sect.
Lin Xiao had just heard Hua Yurou talk about this, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat, it turned out that some of the top strength of the Xiaoyao Sect was here.
It's no wonder that the people who captured him in Feijiang City were all in the realm of gods.
And where have the major sects seen such a terrifying lineup, they were coerced and lured by the two major sects of the Xiaoyao Sect and the Blood Shadow Sect, and they reluctantly agreed to give up the auction of this Ding Furnace.
However, in order to show the friendly and benevolent side of the Xiaoyao Sect and the Blood Shadow Sect.
They deliberately took out some relatively high-grade exercises and some genius earth treasures for auction.
There are two main reasons why they do this;
The first is to prevent the various factions from uniting together, and although they can fight, they can at least add obstacles to them.
Especially the Hall of Eternal Life, although the foundation of the Hall of Eternal Life is weaker than that of the Xiaoyao Sect, it is much stronger than the Hundred Flowers Sect.
The Hall of Eternal Life is the second most powerful sect here.
It's a pity that there are many contradictions between the Hall of Eternal Life and the Xiaoyao Sect, and they don't like each other, which makes the Blood Shadow Sect dispel the idea of befriending both major sects.
If you choose one of these two major sects, the Blood Shadow Sect naturally chooses the Xiaoyao Sect.
What's more, in the Hall of Eternal Life, there is also the secret chess of the Blood Shadow Sect, and the Blood Shadow Sect can also know a thing or two in advance.
The Blood Shadow Sect did this, which could be regarded as a both-pronged operation.
It's just that the status of this secret chess in the Palace of Eternal Life is a little low, and that dark chess cannot control the Palace of Eternal Life.
The Hall of Eternal Life is very strong, and the Xiaoyao Sect and the Blood Shadow Sect must invest some blood to stabilize them.
For this matter, they also reluctantly gave up the three Ding furnaces.
As for the ceded furnace ding, the Blood Shadow Sect will not be too worried, and after this matter subsides, it can let the indifferent dark chess messenger snatch it back.
As for why those genius earth treasures were not marked with names, this was another temptation of the Blood Shadow Sect, among these genius earth treasures, some of the medicinal materials were medicinal materials for cultivating the Ding Furnace.
After all, there was something extremely strange that the Blood Shadow Sect had already seen the two Ding Furnaces auctioned by the Xiaoyao Sect.
These two Ding Furnaces are indeed special physiques, but the identities of those two people are not the Blood Shadow Sect, and they have cultivated the identity of Ding Furnace.
Faced with this question, the Blood Shadow Sect was extremely shocked.
Coupled with the medicinal liquid that cultivated the Ding Furnace, although the medicinal liquid was relatively cheap, the effect of the medicinal liquid was extremely strong.
Although it is not as good as the original dispensing liquid of the Blood Shadow Sect, it must be at least six or seven percent similar.
Faced with this question, the Blood Shadow Sect thought of a conclusion in his heart, an unbelievable conclusion.
This Hundred Flowers Sect is a sect that seems to be very righteous, but the water in this sect is unfathomable.
The Blood Shadow Sect had even thought that this Hundred Flowers Sect, like them, was also doing some shady deeds.
As for the matter of the fifteen Ding Furnaces, the fifteen Ding Furnaces of the Blood Shadow Sect must be in the Hundred Flowers Gate.
Not only that, but they also used these fifteen Ding furnaces as the basis to create some special geniuses.
There is no other reason, a few days ago, the blood ruthlessly quietly saw Hua Yurou.
This proves that Hua Yurou is alive, so these fifteen Ding furnaces must also be in Baihuamen.
Aside from thinking of this, the Blood Shadow Sect really didn't have anything to speculate about.
For this matter, the Blood Shadow Sect had to sell some medicinal herbs to test one or two.
If the Hundred Flowers Sect is really doing the same thing as the Blood Shadow Sect, then this matter must be handled carefully.
The stakes are very high, and they must return to the fifteen Ding Furnaces.
But people like the Hundred Flowers Sect, who are ingenious, have unique techniques, and are almost the same sect as the Blood Shadow Sect, they don't know whether they should become enemies or friends.
All these Blood Dragon Feathers must be reported to the sect, and they must let the sect make a decision.
As for the third day, that is, today, they are going to come to Baihuamen to check out the Ding Furnace.
In the name of it, the Ding furnace is extremely important, and in order to prevent thieves from attacking, they have to take care of one or two.
The time is set for tonight, and the reason why it is tonight is entirely because of Zhou Yanyun's arguments.
The Xiaoyao Sect naturally didn't have anything to say, they came here mainly to accompany the Blood Shadow Sect.
And because of the Blood Shadow Sect's Ding Furnace relationship, which he didn't know if it was true or not, he was also a little vague about the Hundred Flowers Gate.
So the Blood Shadow Sect also agreed with Zhou Yanyun's opinion.
At this time, Lin Xiao, he checked the auction items in his hand little by little, and his eyes slowly narrowed.
Lin Xiao had an extremely thorough understanding of medicinal materials, and he naturally saw the clues in this painting.
But at this time, Lin Xiao didn't care about these anymore, what he cared about was his current situation, Baihuamen's current situation.
"Deputy Head Zhou, the Blood Shadow Sect is here, it is a great change for us."
"I think the Blood Shadow Sect must have checked the two Ding Furnaces auctioned by the Xiaoyao Sect, he must have discovered something, plus Yu Rou's sudden appearance some time ago."
"Based on the current situation, I expect that the Blood Shadow Sect will definitely think that the fifteen true Ding Furnaces are in the hands of our Hundred Flowers Sect."
"And they will think that we Baihuamen have mastered another method of cultivating the Ding Furnace."
"This is an extremely unfavorable thing for us, if one is not handled properly, our Hundred Flowers Sect is very likely to be retaliated against by the Blood Shadow Sect."
"At that time, with the secret action of the Xiaoyao Sect, the consequences for our Baihuamen are unimaginable."
Lin Xiao paused slightly when he said this, he didn't say the consequences of Baihuamen, he knew that Zhou Yanyun would definitely be able to guess it.
And Lin Xiao knew that Zhou Yanyun must have other meanings when he asked him to rush over in such a hurry.
The Hundred Flowers Sect is the third largest sect in the Tianbei Empire.
With such a huge sect, even though Zhou Yanyun is a good person and Baihuamen is also an extremely friendly sect, there are some things they have to make trade-offs.
Even if it is not for the heritage of Baihuamen, but for the hundreds of thousands of disciples of Baihuamen, they have to consider these.
Lin Xiao thought of this, and he knew that Zhou Yanyun had some thoughts in his heart.
Even if Zhou Yanyun doesn't say it, she has such intentions, although this is not her intention, but there are some things she has to make trade-offs.
Zhou Yanyun wants Lin Xiao to bear all this alone, he wants Lin Xiao to deal with this matter alone, no matter what he does or says, the consequences of everything that happens have nothing to do with Baihuamen.
Zhou Yanyun wanted Lin Xiao to get out of Baihuamen.
This is a forced and helpless choice, but Zhou Yanyun has to do it, even if it is not for his position as the deputy head, he has to think about the future development of Baihuamen, and the survival of the hundreds of thousands of disciples of Baihuamen.
Sure enough, Zhou Yanyun heard Lin Xiao say these words, and saw that he paused slightly and fell into thought, she knew that Lin Xiao had thought of this, and she also knew what Lin Xiao was going to do.
Lin Xiao wants to break away from Baihuamen, and he has to bear everything alone.
If the Blood Shadow Sect hadn't arrived in advance, and if the Blood Shadow Sect hadn't come up with such a way to form an alliance, Lin Xiao wouldn't be in the same situation as he is now.
Everything that happened was too sudden, and Zhou Yanyun originally planned to let Baihuamen make a lot of money from the Xiaoyao Sect at this time.
But now that this is the case, all these illusions have come to naught.
Although letting Lin Xiao get out of Baihuamen was the result that Zhou Yanyun was looking forward to, this was also her helpless choice.
In fact, Zhou Yanyun still has a trace of expectation, she expects Lin Xiao to come up with a breakthrough.
This breakthrough can not only keep Baihuamen, but also keep Lin Xiao so that he can develop steadily and strengthen Baihuamen.
Zhou Yanyun didn't speak, she continued to wait for Lin Xiao's words.
Hua Yurou also saw some problems, her heart was full of Lin Xiao just now, and she finally figured out some things now.
It turned out that Zhou Yanyun called Lin Xiao over, and there was something else!
Hua Yurou's heart was anxious, she understood that his master wanted Lin Xiao to die willingly.
How could Hua Yurou agree to such a thing, she immediately wanted to beg her master to let him break off such thoughts.
If Lin Xiao died, then she would never live alone.
But at this moment, Lin Xiao suddenly smiled and held Hua Yurou's hand.
Lin Xiao looked at Hua Yurou's nervous appearance, looked at the panic in her eyes, and he smiled indifferently at her.
"Deputy Head Zhou, I know what I need to do, but this matter is far from what you imagined, I can keep Baihuamen, and I can also keep me safe."
"Not only that, but I can also have a very smooth development space."
"But there is a premise, that is, Deputy Head Zhou needs to do me a favor first."
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
