Text Chapter 2007 Loss of Control
Yang Zhaoqing was silent, he understood the truth as soon as he heard it, but the worry that flashed across his brows was difficult to hide, because the demon monk Nan Bo had seen Yan Xiu take action, and although he had not seen Yan Xiu's true face, the Yin Soul Tongyang Technique was created by the demon monk. It's impossible for the demon monk not to recognize it. With such solid evidence on display, it would be troublesome for Heaven to investigate.
Although Miao Yi looked out the window with his back turned, he seemed to know what he was thinking, and said slowly: "The key now is to confuse the public and prevent the heaven from concentrating all forces against us, and prevent the excuse from becoming an immediate crisis when the demon monk comes back. Under the current situation, rumors are just buying us time. As long as Hao Defang is replaced beforehand and the support of the Xiahou family is obtained, the rumors are just rumors and cannot become the truth! "
Yang Zhaoqing suddenly realized, what is the most critical thing now? It is to help Cao Man ascend to power and force Cao Man to submit. In other words, the current rumors are actually aimed at Cao Man, and the demon monk Nan Bo must leave room to stabilize him.
Yang Qing muttered: "I hope the Xiahou family can cut off the wings of the demon monk and suppress the demon monk Nan Bo so that he can't become a leader!"
On the Blue Island Star, at the entrance of the carved tower on the blue sea cliff, the demon monk Nan Bo stood in the wind, with Zuo'er reporting on the situation outside.
Similar scenes made Zuo'er himself feel a little dazed. It was like this when he was in front of Ying Jiuguang, and it was still the same now, but he had a different master.
With the help of the Ying family's power, the demon monk Nan Bo felt much more relaxed. Running around alone was time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient. The ready-made news channels of the Ying family helped him a lot.
"Is there a lot of damage?" Demonic Monk Nan Bo asked calmly.
Zuo Er said with lingering fear: "The power of the Xiahou family is really terrifying. I thought the hidden power of the Ying family was very secretive. I didn't expect that the Xiahou family had known some secrets for a long time, but they just stayed still. This move caused us a lot of losses." Big, in such a short period of time, nearly half of the secret channels we have have been destroyed. Fortunately, I scaled back in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Now our secret financial channels have suffered huge losses, and the supply of personnel will be reduced in the future, which will easily lead to unrest. Stable. The bigger problem is, I don’t know what the Xiahou family will do next. Looking at this situation, the Xiahou family wants to destroy all the existing power of the Ying family! "
The demon monk Nan Bo said calmly: "Will the Xiahou family follow the clues and find their way here?"
Zuo'er: "That's not the case. This is the place I personally arranged back then. It is one of the escape routes left for King Ying Tian. No one knows about it except me and King Ying Tian, so we shouldn't be able to find it here."
The demon monk Nan Bo was relieved, "It seems that the Xiahou family already knows that we are cooperating, and this is for me."
Zuo'er looked at his face and said hesitantly: "That should be the case. Could it be that Niu Youde leaked it?"
"The Xiahou family is very courageous. Xiahou Tuo is dead. I am not in a hurry to settle accounts with them, but they are in a hurry to trouble me. Very good, just wait for me!" The demon monk Nan Bo sneered and said calmly: "Isn't that right? What he leaked is not important, even if we know he leaked it, so what. That guy has a lot of troops, and we have no evidence to argue with him. We can't do anything to him at the moment. It's not the time to break up with him unless it's necessary. Let's restore me now. The top priority is your strength. Accept the losses you have suffered for the time being. When I regain my strength, I will naturally help you get back your money and profits! The rumors outside are most likely caused by him. That's enough! Yes, you can think of such a method, it’s simple and effective!”
He said it easily, but he was also holding back a fire in his stomach. No matter how majestic he was in the past, he was still in the past. Now he is not as strong as others, so he can only endure it.
Everyone has times when their strength is inferior to others. Even Miao Yi has had to endure humiliation and bear the burden.
Zuo'er sighed: "Indeed, I really didn't expect that this guy is actually a member of the Six Paths. It is really not easy to be pushed to the bright side by the Six Paths. His ups and downs over the years have nothing to do with the Six Paths. With his current situation With the power of Hao Defang as a barrier, if there is no evidence and all kinds of confusing rumors are spread, I am afraid that the heaven will not dare to investigate him easily, otherwise it will force him to rebel! "
The demon monk Nan Bo suddenly sneered, evidence? He was a little strange now. Did Niu Youde really not know that he saw that Yan Xiu was using the Yin Soul Tong Yang Technique, or was he pretending not to know? Although he did not see the true face of the person who took action, when he came back here and inquired about the people around Niu Youde and heard about Yan Xiu's unusual appearance, he immediately targeted Yan Xiu.
Logically speaking, Niu Youde cannot be unclear about it, so what does it mean to spread this rumor? Does it make sense?
It's not that he doesn't have any trump cards in his hand to deal with Niu Youde. The matter of the sealed land and Yan Xiu's Yin Soul Tong Yang Jue are all in his hands.
After thinking about it, he decided to test Niu Youde's attitude. He took out the star bell and contacted Zhang Ping.
In the attic, Miao Yi and others were talking.
When Yan Xiu arrived, he walked straight to Miao Yi and reported, "The demon monk wants to talk to the adults."
Miao Yi sneered and nodded.
Yan Xiu threw Zhang Ping out.
Zhang Ping glanced at a few people, took out the star bell, cupped his hands towards Miao Yi and said, "Grand Governor, I would like to ask you, are you the one who spread the rumors outside?"
Miao Yi squinted and said, "So what if it is, so what if it's not?"
Zhang Ping immediately shook the star bell and told the demon monk Nan Bo. When he got a reply, he added: "The governor has handled the matter to this point, how can you ask the noble man to help you handle those two things? What if you regret it later?"
Miao Yi said coldly: "I have already said that I do not accept threats, only transactions. If he handles the matter, I will naturally give him the things. He knows some things well, so why pretend to be confused!"
After Zhang Ping conveyed the message, he warned: "Your Majesty, I still say the same thing. I hope that the governor will keep his word, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Miao Yi tilted his head, and Yan Xiu took Zhang Ping away again.
When Yan Xiu turned around and walked behind Miao Yi, he found Yang Qing looking at him. The two looked at each other and then looked away.
When things have reached this point, Yang Qing is not a fool. He has probably guessed why Yan Xiu was sent to investigate Zhuge Qing's affairs in the first place, but no one would pierce the window paper.
In Tianweng's mansion, the master and servant wandered to the big tree supporting the sky one after another.
"You need to check your home's defense more often." Xia Houling walked to the tree and stroked the rough trunk with his hand. He had been reminded of this countless times.
Wei Shu said respectfully: "We have been checking regularly and will not give the evil monk an opportunity to take advantage of."
Xia Houling: "Have you found the person who spread the rumors?"
Wei Shu: "It has been planned for a long time and is difficult to find out. This rumor came out of nowhere."
Xia Houling narrowed his eyes and said: "If the rumors are so baseless and fruitless, then there is only one possibility. Whoever benefits will be the one who stirs up trouble!"
Wei Shu hesitated and said: "Master, do you doubt Niu Youde?" Others don't know, but here they know that Niu Youde is a person of the six realms. Others can't figure out who can benefit, but here they know that Niu Youde broke through the Xiahou family control. Then he nodded, "It is possible, but how could Niu Youde suddenly spread this news at this time? Does he already know that we know his details?"
Xia Houling sneered: "The third child is almost wearing the same pants as him. It's not impossible to leak the secret."
Wei Shu said in surprise: "That's not the case, Niu Youde is so powerful now, this handle is equivalent to helping us control this powerful force. No matter what the third master does, he will not destroy the foundation of the Xiahou family." "
Xia Houling circled the big tree with his hands behind his back, "I hope not, I'm just guessing. Niu Youde's current power is probably beyond the control of Liu Dao. He may also have spread rumors to cut off ties with Liu Dao and stand on his own. Anyway, no matter what, As soon as these rumors came out, they helped Niu Youde clear up his worries. Niu Youde is out of our control!" He shook his head and said, "Let's put it aside for now and settle the matter later. Let's deal with the demon monk Nanbo first. , How is the investigation going at the Ying family?"
Wei Shu: "Judging from the situation, the remnants of the Ying family have indeed been much more active since the demon monk Nan Bo escaped from trouble. It is not yet confirmed whether it is related to the demon monk Nan Bo, and they are still digging! Don't worry, sir, the entire Xiahou family is united. My heart is agitated, and I have a direction to start. Unless the remnants of the Ying family completely cut off contact with the outside world, the demon monk will be dug out sooner or later, and he will not be able to escape! "
Xia Houling: "Now I wonder how the third child knows that the demon monk and the remnants of the Ying family are colluding together. The third child is hiding something from us!"
Wei Shu: "At least one thing is for sure. The demon monk sitting in power is also a threat to the third master. The third master can't mess up in this matter. Besides, now that I think about it, the demon monk can't be alone in today's world. It must be When looking for forces to hook up with, the forces of the Ying family are the best choice. Both parties have common interests. The tracing direction provided by the third master should be correct. Moreover, after the demon monk escaped from trouble, the remnants of the Ying family have indeed become more active. This is all Something fishy.”
"We're not afraid of external troubles, we're afraid of internal troubles!" Xia Houling looked up to the sky and sighed, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Wei Shu was silent. Although the head of the family did not say anything, he had already strongly felt that the head of the house had murderous intentions towards the third master. The head of the house tried his best to bring down Ying Jiuguang, but failed to gain the prestige he hoped for. This made the head of the family hate those brothers, especially the third master who was openly obedient and treacherous, so that Niu Youde became powerful in the land of the netherworld, and Niu Youde reciprocated the favor without seizing control of the ghost market. Both parties It was obvious that they had colluded together. The family owner should have wanted to kill him for a long time. However, it was a bit unrealistic to use assassination methods to infiltrate the Xinyi Pavilion that the third master had run for many years. If they attacked with force, the Netherworld army would immediately take action. It was difficult for the family owner to find an opportunity to attack. I had to endure it all the time.
In the Ghost Market, Xinyi Pavilion, Cao Man's lonely figure was immersed in the darkness, looking at the dim lights outside the window with a blank look.
"My boss!" Qi Jue knocked on the door.
Cao Man came back to his senses, his eyes suddenly regained their depth, "Come in!"
Qi Jue and Cao Fengchi entered together, closed the door, and saluted Cao Man, who had his back to the window.
Cao Man turned around and walked back to the case and sat down. He looked at the two of them for a long time and said slowly: "You must have heard about the rumors that have been spreading recently. What do you think?" (To be continued.) 8
