Chapter 978 Gradient
"Oh? Something delivered?"

"Yes, the city lord. This time it is the secret technique of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. The disciple just tested it and there is no problem."

Li Qing stood on a huge terrace, offering a jade slip with both hands, with his head slightly lowered, until a man in his early thirties who stood in front of him reached out and took the jade slip before he dared to straighten his back .

Looking out in front of Li Qing, there are undulating mountains, but it is full of fireworks below, and it is an extremely huge super city.The city is estimated to be more than a hundred miles in radius!
This place is also Guishi City, one of the five top forces of the Pastoral Sect.And it belongs to Shicheng City Lord's Mansion.And standing in front of Li Qing was the Lord of Guishi City, Shi Jue.

Shi Jue picked up the jade slips handed over by Li Qing and unfolded them. After a while, he read the contents inside and threw them back casually.He said with a smile: "Have you ever known how much family property Haoxuemen still has?"

"City Master, Xue E of Haoxuemen is very thoughtful. I have tested it many times, but I still haven't found out the details. But judging from the interval between their deliveries, even if there are still some, there are not many." Li Qing replied respectfully, while Put away the jade slips.Although he didn't have much use for this thing, it was a good thing for the sect.

"Since there are not many more, this farce is probably coming to an end. How do you plan for the Foreign Affairs Hall?" Shi Jue did not have high expectations for the inheritance of the Great Desolate World from the very beginning.After all, it is too mysterious, and it is not a measurable opportunity.It was only based on the conflict between Guishi City and Qingshan Wonderland that it was mixed in.

Sure enough, there are too many variables in the future, and the inheritors of the Great Desolate World are not reliable.Now the only thing that Shi Jue thinks is good is that he has brought Yunlanyu and Qingxitian to the opposite side of Qingshan Wonderland, adding allies to Guishicheng in a disguised form.

This time, to put it mildly, it is a "conflict of opinions", and to put it harshly, it is "hair pulling".

The fighting has been going on for hundreds of years, and it seems to be getting more and more fierce, but in fact, neither Qingshan Fairyland nor Guishicheng and other three families have ever faced each other with real swords and guns in person.They are all played by the first- and second-rate forces under his command.Counting the number of dead people, there is no blood from each other.

Even if Elder Jinxian died in Qingshan Fairyland and lost most of the combat power of a first-class sect, it has nothing to do with Guishicheng's three families.Shi Jue personally sent a private letter to Lin Xiao of Qingshan Wonderland about this matter.He believed that Qing Xitian and Yun Lanyu had done the same thing as him.Otherwise, Qingshan Wonderland would not be so calm.

Everyone is waiting, waiting for news from the Chaos faction.To put it bluntly, he was waiting for the disappearing leader of the cliff mountain, Zhang Yan, to show up again.

What Qingshan Wonderland is waiting for is revenge.Shi Jue waited for the opportunity to give Qingshan Wonderland a hard time.

But over the past 700 years, everything seems to have slipped in the most boring direction.

"City Master, the Foreign Affairs Hall discussed that it is possible to gradually withdraw the forces deployed in Haoxuemen. The previous agreement with that Zhang Yan is now in vain, and there is no follow-up. So it is not a breach of trust. And we can put pressure on it. Further squeeze out the remaining value in Haoxuemen's hands. If there is really nothing left, it happens that there is no need to waste energy on this matter. It can also be counted as a settlement."

"Yes. But there is one more step."

"Please show me the city lord."

"Notify Haoxuemen in advance. Be polite. Since you want to withdraw, you can't do it absolutely. Show them a way. If there are roots that you want to keep, you can go to our Guishicheng to rule it down. You understand what I mean Is it?" Shi Jue withdrew his gaze from afar and looked at Li Qing beside him.

Li Qing thought for a while, then a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to understand Shi Jue's request, so he tentatively asked: "The city lord wants to use Haoxuemen to set an example, so that in the future, all those who do not deal with Qingshan Wonderland Is there an extra way for the forces to retreat?"

Shi Jue nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "That's right. Now Haoxuemen has made a good start for the Muge faction. Qingshan Wonderland has been used to acting arrogant and domineering over the years, and it has caused many blood feuds. Hao If Xuemen is willing to leave roots to us, just keep it, it will not be a loss, and it will show affection. In the future, we will have a moral benefit regardless of whether that Zhang Yan appears or not.

In this way, those forces who hide their dissatisfaction with Qingshan Wonderland can also have us as a trend.If things go on like this, the foundation of Qingshan Wonderland will definitely be shaken! "

You can't just focus on the present when planning things.What Shi Jue saw was what happened ten or a hundred steps later.The grievances between Guishicheng and Qingshan Wonderland are irreconcilable.Rather than guard against everything, what Shi Jue always wanted to do was once and for all.Hao Xuemen is undoubtedly the most suitable opportunity he has been waiting for for a long time.Naturally, it needs to be utilized inside and out.

Li Qing nodded.The idea of ​​the city lord is indeed feasible, and has foreseeable benefits.However, Li Qing, who should be reminded, still felt that he should remind, so he thought about his words, and Li Qing said: "City Master, if this is the case, it will be the rebellion of Qingshan Wonderland. Qingshan Wonderland will not let it go, our conflict with it It may gradually become superficial, and there may even be a possibility of direct conflict, do you think you should make some preparations first?"

"The preparations are already underway. Otherwise, why do you think I asked you to bring Qingxitian and Yunlanyu together this time? They participate once, which means that there will be many more in the future. You don't even need them." To clearly stand up against Qingshan Wonderland, you only need to show that you have a close relationship with us.

How dare Qingshan Wonderland jump up and fight us to the end? "

Said Shi Jue shook his head.He knows the people in Qingshan Wonderland too well.He likes to seek in the middle of the song rather than take it straight in. Unless there is no retreat, it is impossible to take a risky fight head-on.This is also the point that Shi Jue has always looked down on each other.

Li Qing quickly wrote it down.Suddenly, I understood the series of calculations of the city lord.At the same time, the corners of his mouth turned up, as if he had already seen the dilemma of Qingshan Wonderland.Indeed, once Qingxitian and Yunlanzong stand on Guishicheng's side, a new situation will be formed in the Pastoral School, and the good days of Qingshan Wonderland will come to an end?
Immediately after Li Qing left the City Lord's Mansion, he acted according to Shi Jue's request.First, I contacted Yun Lanyu and Qing Xitian, and simply exchanged some of my views on Haoxuemen.Then he informed Haoxuemen, saying that because the transaction was difficult to continue, Guishicheng was going to withdraw and interrupt the transaction process.At the end, he also mentioned "can provide limited protection for Haoxuemen".

From Guishicheng's point of view, everything went according to their expectations.Be it Haoxuemen or Qingshan Wonderland, they are all under control.

And Qing Xitian and Yun Lanyu also agreed with Gui Shicheng's opinion.Almost at the same time, the three families began to gradually withdraw the defensive forces that they had arranged around Hao Xuemen.

For a while, Haoxuemen was like a poor creature shivering in the cold wind, no one cared about it.
