Chapter 197: Old Monster Ziyin! Come quickly! I have a bold plan
……

"Xue Shiba, what happened to you? Who hurt you?!"

The blood dragon looked at the injuries on Blood Eighteen's body and was secretly shocked.

Xue Shiba can be considered an old subordinate who has followed him for a long time, otherwise he would not have given him tens of thousands of spirit stones at once to let him carry out the black market purchasing mission.

Seeing him injured like this, full of grievance and resentment, he was also filled with anger. Injuring him like this, what's the difference between this and slapping him in the face?
"It's Xue Yuan! Yes, it's the Blood Soul Envoy who came to visit you two days ago!" Xue Shiba gritted his teeth, his eyes full of anger and hatred.

"How is that possible?" Xue Jiao was slightly surprised. "Didn't she leave? How did you run into her? Besides, even if she was a little dissatisfied with me for shirking her responsibilities, she had no reason to attack you."

He didn't doubt that Xue Shiba was lying, but this matter was really a bit outrageous. He didn't understand.

Facing this series of questions, Xue Shiba seemed to be well prepared. He covered his chest and coughed a few times, coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood foam, and then answered them one by one in a hoarse voice.

"It's a coincidence. Following your instructions, I went to Donglaiwei to wait for the black market to open, but unexpectedly I ran into an unfamiliar Blood Soul Envoy. She inadvertently revealed some flaws that I noticed."

"I noticed that she was acting strangely and became suspicious. So I relied on my higher level of cultivation to secretly follow her to a suburban manor and accidentally discovered their shocking plot."

The blood dragon's face was extremely solemn, and he asked in a deep voice: "What is the earth-shattering conspiracy?"

"The Xueyuan lineage is plotting to plunder the black market and control the people on the blacklist and the children of noble families who participate in the black market!" Xue Shiba revealed the conspiracy of the Youyue lineage without hesitation.

"How is it possible?!" Xue Jiao's face was extremely shocked, and his eyes were full of doubts and puzzlement. "The Black Market and Youyue Protector have no grudges against each other, and the other party has a deep background and is not so easy to mess with. Is she crazy?"

"My lord, you are confused." Xue Shiba's face was filled with grief and anguish, and they shared the same hatred for the enemy. "They are planning to put the blame on our Yuanming lineage!"

"Think about it, the location where the black market was opened this time is the territory of our Ming Yuanming lineage. As long as they do it cleanly and pass the blame to us, wouldn't it be a huge benefit without getting involved in any scandal? She can even use this to attack our Yuanming lineage. This is a vicious plan that kills three birds with one stone~!"

"Fortunately, God did not block our path, allowing me to accidentally get the information and expose their conspiracy!"

The blood dragon's expression also became extremely ugly.

It turned out that Xue Yuan was trying to win over Xue Jiao, but in reality, she wanted to drag him into the water. If he really accepted the women's enticement, he would be treated as a pawn at the critical moment, and everything they did would be blamed on him and Lord Yuan Ming!

What a sinister and vicious mind!
His mind was working frantically, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his speculation made sense, especially since Youyue herself was a lunatic, so it was not surprising that she would come up with such a crazy plan.

"As the saying goes, even if the tree wants to be still, the wind never stops." The blood dragon was so angry that his eyes turned red.

I, Blood Dragon, originally just wanted to sit back and watch the fight quietly, but you, Youyue, are trying to trample me into an irretrievable state~
Okay, okay, this is how you play, right?

There was a cold expression on his old face, and a strong murderous intent flashed in his turbid eyes.

But soon, he restrained his expression and asked Xue Shiba for some details. He learned that he followed very carefully and did not get too close. Although he was discovered later, he made timely remedial measures. Xue Yuan just thought that he had just arrived and did not know how much he had heard specifically.

Killing to silence someone is mainly out of caution.

With this, Xue Jiao felt relieved. He raised his hand and patted Xue Shiba's shoulder to comfort him, "Shiba, take good care of your injuries. We won't suffer this loss in vain."

As he spoke, he took out a gourd of blood evil power and gave it to Xue Shiba, then left.

"Thank you, sir."

Xue Shiba held the Blood Evil Gourd in his hands, looking extremely grateful and excited.

It was not until the blood dragon's figure completely disappeared that the excitement on his face gradually faded away. He stood up with difficulty and closed the door, as if he was beginning to retreat and heal his wounds.

Not a moment longer.

The main hall of the underground palace.

The blood dragon paced back and forth, his expression sometimes sinister and sometimes calm, as if he was thinking and weighing something.

Until a quarter of an hour later.

His eyes became silent, as if he had made some kind of decision. He took out a communication talisman from his storage bag, immersed his mind in it, left a series of messages in it, and then lightly tapped his finger.

The communication talisman burned instantly and turned into nothingness in the blink of an eye. A faint white light sank into the void like lightning and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

Not a moment longer.

In a corner of the main hall against the wall, energy waves suddenly began to surge.

The light of the formation lit up on the ground, and then beams of light rose from the ground, gathered in the air, and intertwined to form a water-wave light curtain in mid-air.

A slender figure in a cloak appeared in the light curtain.

He wore a hideous mask, his eyes behind the mask were extremely cold, and his voice was filled with an indescribable gloom: "Blood Dragon, why are you so anxious to see me?"

Xue Jiao's expression straightened up, and he quickly leaned forward and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, a few days ago, Xue Yuan, who was under the command of Youyue Protector, suddenly found me and tried to persuade me to join Youyue Protector. Although I rejected her sternly, I sensed something strange in her behavior. After thinking about it, I decided to investigate secretly first and then report the results to you."

"As for the details of the Blood Garden lobbying, I secretly recorded the entire process with a video talisman. I will send it to you for your inspection later."

"?"

The amount of information contained in Blood Dragon's words is indeed enormous.

Yuan Ming in the water wave light curtain digested a few breaths of time before coming back to his senses, and asked in a cold voice: "You contacted me urgently, did you find a problem?"

"Your Excellency is wise. I sent my most capable subordinate to follow them secretly, and indeed, I discovered that they have huge problems. Youyue is secretly planning a big plan..."

Xue Jiao narrated the story in a babble, adding extra fuel to the fire, supplementing Xue Shiba's story with many details, and also supplemented You Yue's motives: "You Yue, that bitch, not only wants you to take the blame for her evil deeds, but also plans to step on you to gain the trust of the quasi-saint son. She deserves death."

as predicted.

After listening to the blood dragon's additional description, Yuan Ming's eyes behind the light curtain became even colder, and a murderous intent as tangible as a substance almost penetrated the light curtain and reached the main hall.

"My lord, this is intolerable." The blood dragon said while the iron was hot, "My subordinate Xue Shiba escaped by luck. After the Youyue guardian learned the news, there is no guarantee that they will not change their plans. We'd better take the initiative before they move on."

"As long as you give the order, I will go to the Blood Garden immediately."

Yuan Ming did not answer him, but the increasingly fierce murderous intent in his body revealed his emotions.

After a few moments of silence, he said in a cold voice: "Give me the position, I will handle this matter myself."

"Yes, my lord."

＊＊＊＊＊＊
Just after the blood dragon contacted Yuan Ming, less than half an hour had passed.

It is located on a small hillside just over ten miles away from the remote manor of Donglaiwei.

In the thatched grass taller than a human, Xue Yuan, dressed in gorgeous palace attire, and several of his subordinates, who had not yet had time to change out of their decent clothes, were crawling and hiding in a secluded place, holding their breath, and being extremely quiet.

Several formation flags were planted around them, and a faint light from the formation spread out, distorting the surrounding space, completely blocking the prying eyes and minds, and covering up all their breath.

From the outside, whether using spiritual power, looking with the eyes, or sensing their breath, one cannot detect their existence.

But even so, Xue Yuan and the others couldn't be completely at ease.

Sensing from afar a powerful and oppressive aura passing through the sky and descending into the manor where they lived, Xue Yuan's body froze, not daring to move, but her eyes changed again and again, from fear to relief, and then to anger.

"Xue Shiba, thank you for tipping us off this time." Xue Yuan turned around and looked at "Xue Shiba" beside him with sincere gratitude. "If it weren't for this, I'm afraid none of us would have escaped with our lives."

Xue Yuan is just an ordinary blood soul master, how could he be a match for the blood protector Yuan Ming?
Xue Shiba, however, waved his hands humbly, not daring to take credit for it: "Master Xue Yuan, you are too kind. I am only following orders. The information was provided by my Master Xue Jiao."

If the Blood Dragon was at the scene, he would be shocked. Blood Eighteen, why is there another Blood Eighteen here? And this Blood Eighteen is intact, without any injuries.

Needless to say, these two Blood Eighteen are fake.

The one next to Xue Yuan is Chen Ningzhuo in disguise.

As for the other side, since the Blood Soul Cult members in the underwater base are more familiar with Blood Eighteen and his disguise is a little difficult, the more experienced Su Yuanbai is sent out.

In order to avoid suspicion from Xue Jiao and the others, Su Yuanbai not only inflicted injuries on himself that were realistic enough to be mistaken for real ones, he even made his voice very hoarse. It can be said that this was a huge sacrifice.

You know, Chen now has two [Thousand Illusion Masks] in his hands.

Of course, there are more Thousand Illusion Masks that can be exchanged in the Wu Earth Hall, and they are not too expensive. However, the cultivator must practice the Wu Earth Sutra and reach the Foundation Establishment Stage before he can use this treasure.

Otherwise, no matter how many Blood Eighteens the Blood Dragon and the Blood Garden need, Chen can get them for them.

"I will definitely go and thank fellow Daoist Xue Jiao afterwards, but if you, Xue Shiba, hadn't notified me in time, I would have been dead. Don't worry, I will report your achievements to Lord You Yue, and I will get you a Blood Demon Seed afterwards."

Xue Yuan knew very well how attractive the Blood Demon Seed was to a Blood Deacon. With it, a Blood Deacon would have the possibility of being promoted to a Blood Soul Envoy!
Of course, it is only a possibility. After all, the Blood Deacon is only born with four spiritual roots. Even with the assistance of the Blood Evil Demon Seed, it is not easy for him to break through the Golden Core Stage.

But even so, there are still countless cultivators with four spiritual roots flocking to it.

The limitation of spiritual roots is like an insurmountable chasm for cultivators. Countless cultivators have been trapped and died because of it, going from disappointment to despair, and even madness.

What they feared was never failure, but that God would not even give them a chance to try. For the vast majority of the four spiritual root cultivators, even if they only had a chance to break through to the Golden Core Stage, they would die without regrets.

"Xue Shiba, thank you, Master Xue Yuan!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Shiba showed an excited and excited expression. He thanked Xue Yuan again and again, looking as if he was willing to die for her.

As they were talking, the powerful and oppressive aura had already left the manor, but Xue Yuan and the others did not dare to move and continued to lie prostrate themselves and hide.

This wait lasted for another hour.

An hour later, the Blood Guardian Yuanming still did not appear again, so the Blood Garden group dared to carefully come out of their hiding place and quietly moved to another backup base.

As soon as she calmed down, she immediately contacted her immediate superior, the Blood Protector Youyue, through the mother-and-child mirror.

In the mother-and-child mirror, Xue Yuan, who almost died, was terrified. She naturally recounted the whole process with exaggeration. She even pretended to cry a few times and said aggrievedly, "Sister Youyue, that Yuan Ming was too cruel. I almost couldn't see you again."

Naturally, Youyue was furious about this and said she would go find Yuanming to settle the score immediately.

"Sister Youyue." Xue Yuan hurriedly stopped her, "Now is definitely not the time to settle accounts with Yuanming."

"Well?"

Youyue glanced at her, doubts filling her eyes as deep as the dark night.

"According to the information provided by Xue Shiba, Yuan Ming just accidentally discovered our base and wanted to clip your wings." Xue Yuan's eyes flashed with hatred, "But Yuan Ming doesn't know that we have learned of his plan to deal with the black market. So, we are in the dark and he is in the light."

"In my opinion, instead of going to him to settle accounts now, we should wait until he takes action against the black market, then we will stab him in the back. After we have successfully taken the peaches, we will throw all the dirty water on Yuan Ming."

This plan was not Xue Shibaxian's idea, but now all kinds of situations were placed in front of Xue Yuan. After a little thought, she came up with such a brilliant plan.

You Yue, who was standing opposite the bronze mirror, narrowed her eyes slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, she nodded and said, "In that case, you should be careful over there, hide first, observe the situation secretly, collect intelligence, and when I finish what I have, I will come to support you immediately!"

"Yes, Sister Youyue." Xue Yuan bowed.

……

Almost at the same time period.

Inside the submarine base.

The main hall of the underground palace.

The Blood Dragon and the Abyss Blood Protector also started communicating again.

"They actually got away with Xue Yuan!" Xue Jiao was shocked when he heard the information from Yuan Ming. "How is it possible? If you take action, sir..."

"Hmph!" Yuan Ming snorted unhappily, "When I rushed over, the manor was already deserted. However, I found many traces of the Blood Deacon and the Blood Protector in the manor, and some of the traces were still fresh. It was obvious that they evacuated in a hurry. Maybe they were still in the manor a few hours ago. Blood Dragon, could it be that you accidentally leaked the news?"

He did not doubt the Blood Dragon. After all, judging from the current situation, the Blood Dragon and he had common interests, and the benefits of following him far exceeded joining Youyue.

He was afraid that someone under the Blood Dragon's command would secretly defect to Youyue.

"Impossible." The blood dragon said firmly, "Since I communicated with you, sir, no one has left the underwater base. You also know that if there is a communication symbol entering or leaving the underwater base, I will definitely notice it."

Although the underwater palace is large, with his strength at the Jindan stage, he can still cover the entire underwater palace with his divine sense.

If someone used a communication talisman in the underground palace, he might not be able to intercept it, but he would definitely be able to detect it.

"Besides, after I gave you the information about the location of the Blood Garden, I did not tell anyone about it." The Blood Dragon added, and then couldn't help frowning, "In my opinion, most likely after the Blood Garden tried to kill Blood Eighteen but failed, they were afraid that I would retaliate and something unexpected would happen, so they decisively withdrew in advance. But the speed of this retreat is too fast."

He had heard from Xue Shiba before that when he first overheard the news, he was not noticed by the other party, but was accidentally discovered by the other party when he was evacuating later. Fortunately, he was alert, and when Xue Yuan and the others stopped Xue Shiba, they thought he had just sneaked in!

"Yes, it must be because their plan is too important, so they act so cautiously. If there is any sign of trouble, they will move faster than rabbits."

Xue Jiao's thoughts raced, and he soon helped Xue Yuan to make the logic of her actions consistent.

Xue Yuan and the others ran so fast, of course they were guilty.

This naturally further confirms the authenticity of the information provided by Xue Shiba.

Yuan Ming obviously thought so too, so he frowned and said, "Xue Jiao, this guardian is not convenient to show up for many things, you take your people and sneak into the vicinity of Donglaiwei, and dig out the people of Youyue lineage as soon as possible."

"Yes, sir." After receiving the order, the Blood Dragon offered a suggestion, "However, I think this is a godsend opportunity, and I have a bold plan in mind."

"Right now, Youyue and the others don't know that we have learned of their plan. Why don't we lurk in secret and take advantage of the situation? When they have dealt with the black market and are in a weak state, we will strike and catch them all in one fell swoop and reap the spoils."

"In this way, we can completely suppress Youyue's lineage, reap a lot of benefits from the black market, and throw all the dirty water on Youyue."

Previously, the Blood Dragon went to visit and comfort the seriously injured Blood Eighteen. Although Blood Eighteen had never mentioned this brilliant plan to him, during the conversation with him, the Blood Dragon suddenly had a "flash of inspiration" and came up with this bold idea.

Yuan Ming was obviously moved by this bold plan. He was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "This is a good idea. I will give you credit for it. However, you still have to send people to secretly search the Blood Garden and put pressure on them. If we lie dormant, we will be exposed and arouse the other side's vigilance."

"Your Excellency is wise." The blood dragon flattered him.

****
at the same time.

Yunyang Sect.

In the main hall of the sect leader.

The light from the spirit stone lamp was bright and steady, illuminating everything in the hall.

On the table, wisps of sandalwood incense rose, entangled and swept across the huge portrait of the founder hanging on the wall, blurring his eyebrows and eyes, leaving only a pair of majestic and cold phoenix eyes, as if they were staring down at everything in the hall.

On the first seat in front of the hall.

True Man Ziyin, who looked dignified and had white hair and a youthful face, sat upright, glancing at the chubby Master Xuanyang and Chen Shiyun, who had a solid cultivation base and would be able to advance to the foundation-building stage in a few years, and his voice sounded a little unpleasant.

"You two, master and disciple, are not in the weapon refining hall to study the way of weapon refining, but you have to interrupt my retreat with an emergency communication. What happened?"

True Man Ziyin has also been troubled by the Blood Soul Sect over the years.

For this purpose, he made a special trip to Tianyuan Continent a few years ago. He originally wanted to recruit people, but failed to do so. He had no choice but to sell everything he had to get back a large amount of resources, preparing to take the power of his Purple Extreme Six Yang Fire to a higher level.

In this way, we can cope with the increasingly dangerous situation in the future.

As a result, when he was recuperating at the critical moment, he was interrupted by the master and disciple using the emergency mechanism. Not to mention that all his previous efforts would be wasted, it would at least delay him for a year or two.

Naturally, Master Ziyin’s attitude was not very good.

Especially you, boy Xuan Yang. Nine times out of ten you don't come to meetings when I call you. But now you come to make trouble at this critical moment when I am in seclusion.

If you don't give me a satisfactory answer, I will definitely make this fat guy pay for it~!

"Disciple, you should tell the story about this, after all, it's something that happened in your family." Master Xuanyang shrank his neck slightly and winked at Chen Shiyun.

Chen Shiyun was not panicked at all. He showed a sweet smile to Master Ziyin and said in a coquettish voice, "Grandpa Ziyin, it's not my master's fault. I asked him to use the emergency mechanism to wake you up."

Facing the young man like Chen Shiyan, Master Ziyin's attitude suddenly became much better. He said with a relaxed expression, "I believe you won't do anything rash, Shiyan. You are much more sensible than your unreliable master. Tell me, what is it that requires your Grandfather Ziyin to take action?"

"The thing is like this..."

Chen Shiyun organized his thoughts and began to tell the story, explaining the cause and effect of the matter.

Finally, she said, "My great grandfather has almost set up the game. We just need to wait until Youyue and Yuanming are both defeated, and then we can jump out and reap the benefits."

???

! ! ! ! !

What did I hear?!

Master Ziyin's eyes had unknowingly widened, his expression dazed, as if he had heard something incredible.

"Shiyan, what you mean is... as long as I take people there now, I can complete the last link of the layout. If the plan is more careful, it may even be possible to wipe out Youyue and Yuanming at the same time???"

It’s no wonder that he doubted his own ears. What he heard was simply too unbelievable.

Youyue and Yuanming have been hiding in the Great Wu Kingdom for so many years. I have tried many times to catch them but failed. How could they be lured out just like that?

Or did you catch two at once?

I have only been in seclusion for a few years, but has the world become so crazy? Even novels don't dare to write like this! !
