Chapter 559 Do You Want Revenge?
Chapter 559 Do you want revenge?
In front of Shi Lei's tomb, everyone finished paying their respects. Yu Lin stood silently in front of the tomb for a long time, while Xue Mu stood beside him.
Leng Qingshi said: "You actually actually erected a monument for Shi Lei yourself... and you are a close friend?"
Xue Mu said calmly: "Why not?"
"We were in Beijing and received news. Yulin was coming to pay homage. We all said that the body must have been abandoned in the wilderness. How could it be possible to erect a monument for the traitor in Qixuan Valley? It would be good if the bones were not crushed and the ashes were scattered. Yulin said, no, there must be a tomb. Xue Muhui will establish it." Leng Qingshi sighed: "You are called confidants."
Xue Mu looked at Yu Lin's back and said nothing.
Leng Qingshi hesitated to speak. Naturally, he was also involved in this matter, and his position was very embarrassing.
The young monk of Wujiu Temple shouted the Buddha's name to Xue Mu: "General Manager Xue, the young monk is polite."
Xue Mu nodded: "Master Faming is polite. Can you respect me?"
Faming of Wujiu Temple, the direct descendant of Yuan Zhong, was ranked fifth among the Ten Heroes of Qianlong earlier, and was later listed in the third issue of the Rookie Book. During the epidemic in Luzhou, he had been traveling around the epidemic area and had not met Xue Mu. But later, when he participated in the competition at the Peak of Good and Evil, he was one of the people who was defeated by Yue Xiaochan, and they had a chance encounter.
"I can eat and sleep." Fa Ming said: "My master always talks about inviting Mr. Xue to visit Luzhou again."
"Haha."
Fa Ming didn't understand that Mr. Ye was fond of dragons, so he said seriously: "My master is not masculine."
"..." Xue Mu was not in a joking mood and said, "Don't you see that you two have a good relationship with Shi Lei?"
"After all, it's the battle between Qianlong and Qianlong. There was competition and friendship, and the rabbit died and the fox was sad. Since Yulin is coming to worship, we are all around, so naturally we will come together."
"Aren't you afraid that Qixuan Valley will regard him as a rebel accomplice and become enemies from now on?"
"Uh..." Fa Ming scratched his bald head and said, "It's private, but I think Valley Master Mo is not a stingy person."
Leng Qingshi smiled bitterly and said: "My father is already a rebel accomplice, so he doesn't care about adding another layer."
Xue Mu said: "What your father does has always made me feel very strange. It should not be what a leader of the righteous way should do, and it doesn't look like Pan Kouzhi has lost his bottom line and is unreliable. But this time about the Qixuan Change, I But suddenly I understood a lot.”
"Oh?" Leng Qingshi asked curiously: "I would like to hear the details."
"As a righteous ordinary person, you can do whatever you want to do chivalrously and righteously. One person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. As the leader of a sect, the first thing to consider is the development of the sect's power, whether it is fighting for the top spot, seizing the heir apparent, or fighting for the throne. Entering Yizhou, or supporting the friendly forces when other sects were fighting... From the beginning to the end, Leng Zhu only did what a sect leader should do. The same goes for Yun Qianhuang, because the first thing that lost the tripod was his heart. Zong is what caused Yun Qianhuang and Leng Zhu to become active. If the tripods were in other positions, the active ones might be Wentian or Yuan Zhong, who knows?"
Leng Qingshi saluted: "Thank you, Manager Xue, for your understanding."
Fa Ming didn't protest, and he didn't dare to say whether he would fight if the tripod next door lost.
Even Yu Lin didn't dare to say whether he would come to help Shi Lei this time if he was the one who made the decision in Xuantian Sect. In any case, because of his personal relationship, Xuantian Sect, which has always focused on orthodoxy, did not help orthodoxy this time...
Xue Mu walked to Yu Lin's side, stood side by side with him for a while, and whispered: "Do you blame me for not saving Shi Lei's life?"
Yu Lin said lightly: "No. If Shi Lei wins, he will not spare the lives of Valley Master Mo or Zhu Chenyao. He has always been more decisive than me and will not leave such consequences. The same goes for you."
Xue Mu was silent.
Yu Lin added: "Shi Lei is a man of few words. When he and I traveled around the world, I always spoke in front of people. People thought I had the final say between us. In fact, the key point is that I always listen to him."
"Yeah, I can see that."
"The only thing I didn't listen to him was this time. He wanted me to take action... I can't be the master of such a major sect matter, so I didn't come... In the end, it will be eternal farewell."
"If you were in charge, would you come?"
"I don't know..." Yu Lin looked at the tombstone in confusion: "I know what he did was wrong, but... at least I don't want to blame him."
"I don't even blame him, let alone you."
"So if you erect a monument for him and nominate him personally, Qixuan Valley won't demolish it for your sake?"
"Yes." Xue Mu paused and then said, "Actually, the main thing is that I don't want you to blame me."
Yulin finally turned to look at him.
Xue Mu added: "I, Xue Mu, have many girlfriends in this life, and you are the only male friend I don't want to lose."
Yulin couldn't help but smile: "What an honor."
Xue Mu asked: "Want to take revenge?"
"Forget it." Yulin sighed: "You have already taken advantage of this matter. Since you regard me as your only friend, how can I avenge you?"
"When did I say that I was seeking revenge?" Xue Mu rolled his eyes: "Do you think the Shi family's uncle and nephew are strong enough to stage such a rebellion?"
Yulin narrowed his eyes.
"You and Shi Lei are close friends. You must have known in your heart that he has been hiding his treasonous intentions, so you didn't think too much about it and took this incident as a matter of course. But if you think about it carefully, you should know that deeds do not matter the heart, and wanting to rebel does not mean that they will. Their strength It’s not enough to cause rebellion. Without external forces to intervene and provoke, it’s very likely that the whole family will not be able to rebel until their great-grandson is suppressed.”
"emperor?"
"Of course. It's a celebration, can't you tell?"
"This emperor..." Yu Lin clenched his fists tightly: "He doesn't want to live anymore..."
Not to mention Yu Lin's benevolence and righteousness, after all, he is a direct descendant of a top sect warrior. With such a background, he would be a madman in front of the emperor. Shi Lei's death was extremely sad for a close friend like him, but due to his righteousness, he really couldn't lose his temper with Xue Mu or the people of Qixuan Valley. This time, he found a point of transference for hatred, and the anger suddenly arose.
Leng Qingshi and Fa Ming looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Don't get excited." Instead, Xue Mu advised: "The most troublesome thing about this emperor is that a lot of his strength is hidden under the water, and it will come out when pressed, such as the crime of massacre... I really don't know what else he has hidden. No matter how much, I still dare not completely break my face."
Yulin said: "There are countless holes in the world, how many more can he hide?"
"No one can be sure if there are any hidden caves in the world. This is one of them. Even if there is not, he has other plans..." Xue Mu turned to Leng Qingshi: "Natural Sect occupies a territory in Yizhou, and it has also been greatly affected. Resistance?"
Leng Qingshi also narrowed his eyes.
Natural Gate was suspected of assassinating Governor Huang of Yizhou. As a result, the court delayed and delayed until finally Governor Huang recovered from his illness...
Governor Huang, who had been "assassinated" by the Natural Gate, of course had "extreme hatred" for the Natural Gate, and organized and called on all forces in Yizhou to strongly exclude the Natural Gate. In the earlier agreement between the Natural Sect and Ji Qingyuan, the Natural Sect could not enter Yizhou because of the righteousness. As a righteous person, the Natural Sect could not forcefully kill people and destroy sects to occupy the territory like the Demon Sect, so it was very passive.
After the Yizhou forces were reshuffled, a three-legged structure was basically formed. One was the struggling Natural Sect, the second was the Canglan Sect, a secondary sect with the support of the imperial court and Governor Huang, and the third was... from a very inconspicuous sect. The small sect inexplicably managed to conquer the Tiger Sect step by step without knowing where the resources came from.
"If Xue guessed correctly, Governor Huang had never been assassinated at all. He was Ji Wuyou's man. The assassination was just a scene. It not only paralyzed Ji Qingyuan with anger, but also made you and my family become enemies. Then Well, the so-called party disputes in the court that led to the delay in replacing the person are of course intentional." Xue Mu smiled: "This new emperor is very powerful."
Leng Qingshi couldn't help but said: "You're not bad either. The Tiger Gate is yours, right?"
Xue Mu smiled and said: "The Tiger Clan was born in Lingzhou, and it has not been hidden. It was you who didn't take the Tiger Clan seriously at the beginning."
Leng Qingshi grinned in pain, not knowing what to say.
"The emperor's power is slowly revealed. If you want to see it in advance, you need to force it out." Xue Mu smiled and said: "Are you willing to cooperate with me and force him again?"
Yulin said in a deep voice: "How to force me?"
"Oh, Lingzhou is holding a Warrior Glory Team Competition. This city lord sincerely invites all the righteous sects to participate. What do you think?"
