Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

The lanterns are on.

Lin Bai led everyone from the Tianshui Sect to the entrance of Prince Hong's Mansion. After handing in the invitation, he was taken to the study by the servants of Prince Hong's Mansion.

In the study, Lin Bai met Chao Yushi and Miss Shen Xian.

There were still only the two of them in the study, and Lin Bai did not see any other warriors loyal to Prince Hong's Mansion.

This was obviously done deliberately by Chao Yushi. He did not want to expose the background and power of Prince Hong's Mansion in advance, so as to avoid being jealous and causing more twists and turns.

After Lin Bai walked in, he saluted Miss Shen Xian and Chao Yushi, and then immediately asked, "Mr. Chao, have Xia Jingzhi's arrangements been made?"

Chao Yushi smiled gently, "Don't be anxious, Mr. Langhou. Indeed, we already have a solution. We invited Mr. Lang here to discuss the specific details."

Miss Shen Xian ordered everyone to sit down.

Lin Bai couldn't wait to ask: "What method? How sure are you that we can lure Xia Jingzhi out?"

"Master Langhou, please listen to me slowly." Chao Yushi's turbid old eyes flashed with sharpness, "In the past month or so, we have used many methods to secretly invade the insect valley in southern Xinjiang. Guild Hall!”

"But many approaches have failed."

Chao Yushi smiled again, "Fortunately, the disciples in Insect Valley in Southern Xinjiang are not Bodhisattvas with pure six roots, and they also have ordinary minds."

He said to Lin Bai: "I ordered people to send some beauties to a few disciples in the Worm Valley in Southern Xinjiang for them to have fun with."

"Those beauties are all specially trained in the imperial capital to spy on intelligence."

"After nearly half a month, we finally found some clues."

Lin Bai asked curiously: "What clues?"

Chao Yushi said: "After the Southern Xinjiang Insect Valley Mission came to the Imperial Capital, they looted the highly poisonous things in the Imperial Capital. Whether it was highly toxic elixirs or highly poisonous artifacts, they were unstoppable. Reject."

"This is not something unusual."

"The soil and water in the eastern land and the southern land are different, and the spiritual creatures that grow there are also different."

"The Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley envoy came to the Imperial Capital, and it is reasonable to take this opportunity to buy more spiritual objects that their sect needs."

"But we discovered that... Nanjiang Worm Valley attaches great importance to one of the elixirs, and is very eager to do so. It is even willing to pay a large price to buy it."

Lin Bai asked: "What elixir?"

Chao Yushi said: "Soulless Male Spirit Flower!"

"What is this?" Lin Bai didn't know what he meant.

Chao Yushi slowly explained: "The soulless male spirit flower is a kind of deadly poison. Its flower rhizome is like jade, crystal clear and beautiful, like something from the fairy world."

"And this one is extra special."

"If there is a wisp of black smoke inside its rhizome, which seems to exist like a soul, it is called a 'soul female spirit flower'."

"The female spirit flower with a soul is a rare elixir in this world. It can be used to refine elixirs for increasing cultivation in the Daluo Daoguo realm. It is extremely precious."

"On the contrary, if there is no trace of soul material in the rhizome, it is called a 'soulless male flower', which is a deadly poison."

"Ordinary warriors who find the 'Soulless Male Spirit Flower' think it is a rare treasure and take it back to refine the medicine. However, they die suddenly after taking it."

Chao Yushi paused for a moment, then continued: "The soulless male spirit flower and the soulless female spirit flower can be distinguished based on the faint trace of soul material in the rhizome, but it is extremely difficult to discern the clues. easy."

"Even a pharmacist who has practiced Taoism for many years will admit his mistake if he is not careful."

Lin Bai was surprised when he heard Chao Yushi's introduction. He didn't expect that there were such wonderful things in the demon world?

After being amazed, Lin Bai asked again: "But what does this have to do with Xia Jingzhi?"

Chao Yushi smiled and said: "We speculate that... this object is probably one of the elixirs for refining ghosts and gods!"

When Chao Yushi said this, Lin Bai completely understood.

"Mr. Chao, you mean... to use the Soulless Male Spirit Flower to lure Xia Jingzhi out?" Lin Bai raised his eyebrows and asked.

"This is the best way at present!" Chao Yushi said calmly: "And our people have begun to contact the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley, and we are strict, we only do transactions with the people in power behind the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley!"

"We can use this opportunity to carefully select a location, set up an ambush, and wait for Xia Jing to fall into a trap beforehand."

Lin Bai listened carefully to Chao Yushi's plan.

This plan is not perfect.

And it's simply full of loopholes.

However, in just one month, it is a bit difficult to collect information and formulate a perfect plan at the same time.

Lin Bai asked: "But how can Mr. Chao guarantee that the person coming must be Xia Jingzhi?"

"There are many experts in the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley Mission. Xia Jing is not the only one who knows the Soulless Male Spirit Flower. What if other warriors from the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley come to buy it?"

Chao Yushi smiled sadly, "Master Langhou, do you know who we are?"

Who are your people? ... Lin Bai was very confused and didn't understand what Chao Yushi meant?

Aren't your people from Prince Hong's Mansion?

Lin Bai shook his head blankly, stared at Chao Yushi and said, "Mr. Chao, please stop showing off. Time is very tight now."

Chao Yushi smiled and said, "Our people are from the Third Prince's Sun Moon Pavilion."

What? ...Lin Bai was confused.

Chao Yushi smiled and explained again, "You can understand that... that is the hidden child placed by Prince Hong's Palace in the Sun and Moon Pavilion of the Third Prince."

"We used this hidden secret to contact Xia Jingzhi and made it clear... that we were willing to part ways because we both worked for the third prince. We also hoped to make friends with some of the high-ranking disciples in the Worm Valley in Southern Xinjiang and let Xia Jingzhi... Jingzhi must come in person, otherwise he will refuse the transaction."

"To put it simply...if Xia Jingzhi doesn't come in person, this transaction will not go ahead."

"In this case, the probability of Xia Jingzhi coming to the appointment in person will be extremely high."

After listening to Chao Yushi's addition, Lin Bai rubbed his eyebrows anxiously, "But there are still many loopholes."

"For example... the third prince protected Xia Jingzhi so well. Even ordinary warriors in the Sun Moon Pavilion don't know Xia Jingzhi's existence. Wouldn't it be a bit abrupt if Xia Jingzhi was asked to trade by name at this moment?"

Chao Yushi smiled slightly and looked back at Miss Shen Xian.

Miss Shen Xian nodded, "Tell him."

"Yes." Chao Yushi nodded in agreement, then looked at Lin Bai with a smile.

Lin Bai asked curiously: "Is there anything else I don't know?"

Chao Yushi said: "Does Mr. Lang know who this secret that Prince Hong's Mansion placed in the Sun and Moon Pavilion is?"

Lin Bai asked curiously: "Who is it?"

Chao Yushi smiled proudly and said: "One of the 'Five Heroes' among the 'Four Saints and Five Heroes' of 'One Yang, Two Months, Three Saints' in Sun Moon Pavilion... Tu Yue!"
