The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 590 The News Spreads
"Did you hear that?"

"heard!"

"It can't be fake, right?"

"If it was fake, the news would have spread long ago, and it wouldn't have been circulated privately in a small circle like ours."

"That's right. Wow, wow! A treasure trove that is as rich as a country is right here in the Central Plains!"

"I heard that in addition to gold and silver, the treasure also includes countless gems, jade bi, pearls, agates, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, which are piled up like a small mountain. Even the inner treasury of the imperial palace is not as rich as this treasure."

"If not for this, we wouldn't have attracted the descendants of the Western Region tribes that have been passed down for hundreds of years, as well as the masters from India and Persia."

"Those people were not weak. We were able to defeat them not only because of the great efforts of the Guanzhong martial arts community, but also because masters from Gansu, Longnan, Shanxi, and even Shandong and Jiangnan died in battle outside Jiayu Pass."

"It's a pity that they took the blame for the rich man. It's tragic."

"During the Tang Dynasty, the Silk Road, Geshu Han, secret collections, unexpected discoveries... There are origins, clues, and battles. It doesn't sound fake."

"This was found out by that old fox Tu Xiaotian. It was said by Master Wuqiu himself during a drinking party with Master Baima and Hero Zhao. It cannot be wrong."

"Tu Xiaotian's last words before his death were kind. He probably wanted to keep the treasure for himself, but he didn't expect that he would be controlled by Master Wuque and killed by Tianzong. In anger, he told Master Wuque about this matter."

"Yes, it must be so."

"Master Wuque didn't want to reveal this secret, lest the people of Tianzong become alert. We can't talk nonsense after we get out."

"Don't worry, don't worry."

"Save it, save it."

"This wealth caused the deaths of many heroes in the northwest. When I think about it now, I feel very angry."

"Yes, if this wealth continues to remain in the hands of the Tianzong, allowing them to continue to do evil, it would be a great disrespect to those famous heroes!"

"That's right. Even if the people of Tianzong rebelled, Tianzong could resolve the matter internally. However, letting a group of hypocrites divide up the wealth would be a blasphemy to those who have died."

"We should destroy the Tian Sect and hand over these riches to the descendants of those famous heroes, so as not to let them down for their contributions to the Central Plains martial arts world."

"Not bad."

"Exactly."

……

After seeing Zao Wou-Ki off, Zhou Zhigang and his wife also went to Luzhou to visit friends.

Lian Chengbi took Shen Bijun to travel in Jinling for another three days. Before they returned to Wuque Villa, the news about Geshu's treasure had already spread among the small circles of Lianghuai martial arts, and quickly spread to Jiangnan, Xianghan, Qilu, Sichuan, and both sides of the Yellow River...

The huge treasure inherited for hundreds of years, the ferocious Indian and Persian masters, and the mysterious Tianzong organization, all of which aroused people's gossip and discussion.

In various private occasions, everyone discussed the matter heatedly, and the consensus reached in the end was that Tianzong was not qualified to own this wealth, and everyone had the obligation to destroy it.

This news spread throughout various small circles, but no one ever mentioned it to Lian Chengbi until he returned to Wugui Villa, where a guest told him about it.

Shen Bijun was very surprised and a little angry, "Who spread it?"

She thought carefully about what happened at the drinking party. Zhou Zhigang, Jin Fenghuang and Zhao Wuji all promised not to spread the news. But less than six days after the farewell, the news had already spread throughout Jiangnan?

"I don't know." The servant smiled bitterly, "I was attending a gathering of old friends when I heard that this news was related to the owner of the manor, so I hurried back to report it."

In addition to recruiting disciples from good families in the surrounding villages and towns, Wuqi Villa also recruited some Jianghu figures with clean backgrounds as retainers. These retainers either got tired of the Jianghu struggle, or admired Wuqi Villa's chivalry, or simply wanted to enjoy more legally, so they joined Wuqi Villa.

The guest in front of him was once known as the master of two swords and was also a top figure in the Jiangnan martial arts world. Although he joined the Wuque Villa, he still kept in touch with his old friends, so he was able to know this news.

Shen Bijun frowned and looked at Lian Chengbi.

Lian Chengbi smiled and shook his head, "I guessed it a long time ago, it's okay, you can go down."

The retainer bowed and left.

Shen Bijun couldn't help but ask Lian Chengbi, "My husband, you haven't told Si Niang and the others about this news. Is it really okay to let it spread out like this?"

Lian Chengbi shook his head and said, "It's useless for Si Niang to know this news. I specifically told it in front of Zhou Zhigang and Zhao Wuji."

"Why?" Shen Bijun asked.

"Because Zhao Wuji is from Tianzong." Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

"What!" Shen Bijun almost jumped up in shock, "Zhao Wuji is from Tianzong?"

"Considering Zhao Wuji's status and martial arts, I think he must be a master of Tianzong." Lian Chengbi nodded.

"Then why didn't my husband take him down that day?" Shen Bijun said blankly, and then hurriedly asked, "Was this news spread by Zhao Wuji?"

Lian Chengbi smiled but said nothing.

Zhao Wuji would never spread this news, and Zhou Zhigang did not disappoint him.

"No matter who spread this news, at least no one doubts its authenticity now." Lian Chengbi smiled, "My goal has been achieved."

Lian Chengbi gave her some pointers, and Shen Bijun wasn't really stupid, so she quickly understood what Lian Chengbi meant.

"My husband wants to cause internal division within the Tianzong?" Shen Bijun's eyes lit up.

He deliberately did not mention what Tu Xiaotian revealed, causing panic among the people in Tianzong. When people came to test him, he threw out the secret of Geshu's treasure, causing people to be unsettled on a larger scale.

In this way, it would be easier to expose the flaws of Tianzong, and then follow the clues to find the headquarters of Tianzong and arrest the leader of Tianzong.

Every step is carefully planned and linked together!
Shen Bijun looked at Lian Chengbi with admiration and love in her eyes. She felt that there was no one in the world smarter than Lian Chengbi.

Then she thought of something and couldn't help but smile, "But my husband, you let Zhao Wuji go, and Si Niang should have reached Dian Cang Mountain and caught up with Xie Tianshi."

"If Xie Tianshi gets the news and reveals his flaws, and they follow him all the way and discover the secret of Tianzong, then my husband will lose the bet, right?" Shen Bijun said with a smile.

"If I lose, I lose." Lian Chengbi said with a smile, "Xiao Shiyilang is not a bad guy. I will say a few good words for him in the martial arts world, which will not be in vain for his chivalrous deeds of helping the weak and suppressing the strong."

Shen Bijun gently held Lian Chengbi's hand and said, "My husband is a sincere gentleman. It is a blessing for me to marry you."

Lian Chengbi laughed and said, "I am blessed to marry the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world."

When Shen Bijun looked at Lian Chengbi, tears almost came out of her eyes.

"Husband."

"Ok?"

"There are many masters in the Tianzong, I want to practice martial arts more..."
