Chapter 361 Secret Planning, Three-Party War
Gu Yang took a sip of wine, and the chatter of the restaurant guests could be heard from time to time in his ears. His eyes wandered inside the restaurant, as if he was admiring the decoration here, but in fact he was looking for the information he needed.
He noticed a few burly foreign men talking in low voices in the corner of the restaurant. Although their words were cautious, Gu Yang relied on his keen hearing to capture a few key words: "Beicheng District", "Iron Blood Society" , "Two-Headed Eagle".
This information is consistent with what is recorded in the intelligence book in his hand. It seems that the Iron Blood Society in Beicheng District is indeed a force that cannot be underestimated, and their leader "Double-Headed Eagle" is a powerful alien practitioner.
Even if his strength is not as good as He Lianfeng, he is probably comparable to Gu Yang.
Gu Yang secretly wrote down this information and continued to pretend to taste wine. His eyes turned to another table, where several gorgeously dressed businessmen were sitting. The content they talked about seemed to be related to the recent circulation of goods, but it was occasionally mixed with some Code word, this made Gu Yang's heart move slightly.
He quietly tilted his ear that way and heard a businessman whisper: "There was another movement in the Crystal Palace in the East City last night. I heard that the 'Purple Lightning' took action again."
"Purple Lightning" is a mysterious and powerful elemental god in Fengyun City. He is born immortal, controls the power of thunder and lightning, and can summon thunder in battle. He is a force that cannot be ignored in the Dongcheng District.
Gu Yang secretly thought, if this information is true, then they must be extra careful in their operations to avoid direct conflict with these strong men, otherwise they will surely fall into a bitter battle.
He continued to wander around the restaurant for a while, and only after confirming that he had collected enough information, he got up and left. His movements were natural and slow, not attracting the attention of others at all.
After walking out of the restaurant, Gu Yang had a thoughtful expression on his face.
Information about people who were at least in the magical realm flashed through his mind. Fortunately, although there were many strong people in this city, there were still no top experts in the realm of returning to the virtual realm.
As long as there is no big boss of that level, he and He Lianfeng can fight together.
At night, the moonlight shines on the streets of Fengyun City, paving it with a hazy silver color.
Gu Yang came to a secluded alley at the agreed time. It is far away from the hustle and bustle, with only one or two pedestrians passing by occasionally.
Soon, He Lianfeng's figure appeared at the entrance of the alley. His steps were steady and his face looked a little tired. He walked quickly to Gu Yang, and their eyes met in the night.
"How is the situation?" Gu Yang asked, his voice low and full of concern.
He Lianfeng shook his head slightly, with a trace of worry in his eyes: "The black market in the Southern District is more chaotic than expected. The power of the 'Night Walkers' is rapidly expanding. Their methods are extremely secretive. It took me a lot of effort to figure them out. Gu Yang, I have a hunch that he is likely to become our biggest enemy besides the City Lord's Mansion."
Gu Yang pondered for a moment, knowing that this meant that their actions were becoming more difficult. He asked softly: "Have you found any traces of the 'Night Walker'?"
He Lianfeng nodded: "We didn't find him directly, but we tracked several people who were suspected to be related to him. However, they were very careful and I didn't take action rashly."
Gu Yang glanced at He Lianfeng approvingly: "Master Helian has done a good job. We can't act rashly now, otherwise we will alert the enemy."
The two leaned against the wall and began to exchange the information they had collected during the day.
Gu Yang told He Lianfeng the information he heard about the "Double-Headed Eagle" and "Purple Lightning" in the restaurant, and He Lianfeng shared the various anomalies he observed in the black market in the Southern District.
"We need to formulate a new plan." Gu Yang said, his eyes firm, "This 'Dark Night Walker' is obviously not an easy person, we can't just deal with it passively."
He Lianfeng nodded in agreement: "I also have this idea. We need more intelligence, and we also need to find an entry point. It is best to strike first and kill this 'Night Walker'."
Gu Yang crossed his hands on his chest and looked at the distant night sky: "I have an idea, we can use the power structure of this city. Powerful people like 'Double-Headed Eagle' and 'Zidian' definitely don't want to see A new force arises."
He Lianfeng's eyes lit up: "You mean, we can secretly incite conflicts between them?"
"That's right." Gu Yang nodded, "We can secretly add fuel to the flames and let them fight among themselves. This can involve the power of the 'Night Walker' and at the same time buy time for our actions. After all, our first goal is always It's the City Lord's Mansion, as long as the Night Walker doesn't cause any trouble for us."
The two discussed the specific details of the plan and finally decided to act separately. Gu Yang continued to be responsible for inquiring about the intelligence of the City Lord's Mansion, while He Lianfeng went to inquire about the movements of the Double-Headed Eagle and Zidian, plotting secretly and causing chaos.
After the action plan was finalized, Gu Yang and He Lianfeng nodded to each other and disappeared into the night. They knew that the next action would be full of variables, but for the sake of their mission, they had no retreat.
The night in Fengyun City seems to have become more profound and mysterious, and the contest hidden under the night is about to begin.
He Lianfeng's figure was like a ghost in the night. He silently shuttled through the streets and alleys until he came to a seemingly ordinary mansion with hidden mechanisms.
He gently touched a hidden mechanism, and a secret passage slowly opened. He quickly slipped into it and disappeared into the darkness.
In the basement of the mansion, Helian Feng took out an exquisite jade slip, which recorded all the information he had collected today.
He applied a special secret magic array on the jade slip to ensure that even if it fell into the hands of others, the secrets in it could not be easily cracked.
After completing all this, Helian Feng handed the jade slip to a trusted team member and whispered: "Send this jade slip to the hands of the 'Double-headed Eagle' and tell him that the 'Night Walker' has been active recently and seems to have a big move. In addition, hint that he 'Zi Dian' is also very concerned about this matter and seems to be interested in intervening."
The team members took the order and left, and a sharp light flashed in Helian Feng's eyes.
He knew that once this information fell into the ears of the "Double-headed Eagle", it would surely cause a storm. And if "Zi Dian" was also involved, then the storm would become even more violent.
As expected, the information on the jade slip soon attracted the attention of the "Double-headed Eagle". He is a person who attaches great importance to power and status, and is extremely sensitive to any signs that may threaten his status.
As a strong man in Dongcheng District, "Zi Dian" also has his own intelligence network and judgment for any unusual movements in the city.
When the name of "Dark Night Walker" and his recent actions were mentioned at the same time, the leaders of the two major forces realized the threat of this emerging force.
Although they did not trust each other, they had to consider joining forces to prevent the other party from acting alone and profiting from it.
So, in the undercurrent of Fengyun City, a war was quietly brewing.
"Double-headed Eagle" and "Zi Dian" began to secretly mobilize their men, trying to find the traces of "Dark Night Walker" and preparing to uproot its forces in one fell swoop.
And "Dark Night Walker" soon discovered the actions of the two parties, and suddenly felt unprecedented pressure, and began to step up the layout to prepare for the coming storm.
In the night sky of Fengyun City, dark clouds began to gather, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.
And Gu Yang and Helian Feng, the two planners, observed the development of the situation in their respective hiding places, waiting for the best time to intervene.
They knew that this war they had started would be a key turning point in their attack on the City Lord's Mansion.
As long as they could make good use of this melee, they might be able to weaken the power of the City Lord's Mansion without realizing it and lay the foundation for the final victory.
The night of Fengyun City became darker and darker, the pedestrians on the streets gradually became sparse, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
Gu Yang and Helian Feng hid in the dark, their eyes as sharp as cheetahs, staring at every corner of the city.
The dark clouds pressed down on the city, and the tense atmosphere gathered over Fengyun City, like a thunderstorm that was about to break out.
The combination of the double-headed eagle and Zidian made the atmosphere of the whole city more tense, and everyone was waiting for the outbreak of the war.
Three days passed quickly, and three days later, suddenly, a deafening roar broke the tranquility of the night sky, like a bolt from the blue, followed by a series of explosions and the clanging sound of weapons clashing.
The war suddenly began. Double-headed Eagle and Purple Lightning appeared hand in hand in the secret base of the Night Walker. Behind them followed a powerful team composed of masters from all walks of life, and they were aggressive, as if they were going to completely destroy all hostile forces.
Although the Night Walker was caught off guard by the sudden alliance of the two major forces, they were not unprepared.
In their secret base, the carefully arranged defense formations and ambushes were quickly activated, and a magnificent battle quietly unfolded on the deserted streets.
Double-headed Eagle waved his battle axe, which symbolized power. Every swing brought a gust of wind, and the axe shadow poured down on the enemy like a landslide.
And Purple Lightning summoned thunder and lightning with his unparalleled power of thunder and lightning. In the blink of an eye, countless lightning shuttled across the battlefield like a dragon, defeating all forces that dared to resist.
Although the men and horses of the Night Walker were brave, they seemed to be gradually at a disadvantage under the powerful offensive of the two major forces.
Their figures were looming in the fire and thunder, and every resistance seemed to foreshadow their despair.
Gu Yang and Helian Feng were overlooking the melee on the roof in the distance. There was no panic on their faces, only deep thinking and determination.
They knew that although this battle was triggered by them, the subsequent development would be full of variables, and they could not guarantee what the final result would be.
The battle lasted for a whole hour. The combination of the double-headed eagle and the purple lightning gradually gained the upper hand. The stronghold of the night walker was occupied bit by bit, their defensive formations were cracked one by one, and the ambushes were defeated.
However, just when victory seemed to be within reach, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.
A black shadow appeared in the center of the battlefield like a ghost, and his appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The black shadow was thin, but it contained amazing power. He was wearing a black tights, like a part of the night, and it was difficult to detect.
The eyes under the mask were as cold as ice, and through the gap in the veil, they flashed a cunning and sharp light. His hair was tightly bound by a black headscarf, leaving only a few strands fluttering in the wind.
He held a pair of short blades in his hands, the blades glowing with a faint blue light, like the coldest stars in the night sky.
His movements were light and swift, each swing carried the flavor of death, and each step was like dancing with shadows.
The appearance of the Night Walker was like a cheetah in the dark, agile and deadly. He did not speak, but left a series of sharp sword lights on the battlefield, each of which was a fatal blow.
His existence was like a ghost on the battlefield, elusive and even more difficult to deal with. Although the attacks of the Double-Headed Eagle and Zidian were fierce, they seemed a little clumsy in front of him.
The figure of the Night Walker jumped in the firelight, and every time he attacked, he seemed to have an unyielding will. Even in the face of the attack of the two major forces, he did not retreat.
His appearance obviously gave the Night Walker's men a shot of adrenaline, and the situation that was originally retreating began to turn around. They seemed to have found support, their morale increased greatly, and they began to organize an effective counterattack.
Gu Yang and Helian Feng saw this, their faces changed slightly. They knew that the key figure in this battle had appeared, and the true strength of the Night Walker finally revealed the tip of the iceberg.
The two exchanged glances, knowing that they needed to reassess the situation and that the plan might need to be adjusted. But at this moment, they could only wait and see and wait for the further development of the battle.
The tide of the battle began to reverse with the participation of the Night Walker. Although the Double-Headed Eagle and Purple Lightning were powerful, they also felt unprecedented pressure in the face of this ghost-like enemy.
The battle between the three top Dharma Realm masters started instantly, and the confrontation between the Night Walker, the Double-Headed Eagle and Purple Lightning became more and more intense.
Every attack was full of murderous intent, and every dodge was extremely sharp. The three strong men unscrupulously wielded their magical powers, making the entire battlefield extremely chaotic.
The battle had just begun and soon reached a white-hot stage.
At this time, the Double-Headed Eagle and Purple Lightning joined forces and finally found the flaw of the Night Walker, and fierce attacks poured down on him like a rainstorm.
The Night Walker shook his body and seemed to have reached his limit, but a cunning light flashed in his eyes.
At the moment when he was about to be hit, he turned his body and avoided the fatal blow at an incredible angle, and backhanded a knife and chopped it heavily on the shoulder of the Double-Headed Eagle.
Seeing this, Zi Dian frowned. He knew that this battle was not easy. The strength of the Night Walker was far beyond their expectations.
He began to mobilize the power of thunder and lightning, preparing to launch a more fierce attack.
At the same time, Gu Yang and He Lianfeng saw that the battle was already decided, so they did not stay. They quickly disappeared into the night and rushed towards the direction of the City Lord's Mansion... (End of this chapter)
