Chapter 193 The Mastermind Behind Everything
Yan Moxie moved extremely fast in the shadows, almost as fast as teleportation. Under normal circumstances, even a golden expert of the same level would have difficulty catching up with him. Unfortunately, he met Su Mu.
No matter how fast Yan Moxie was, he could never compare to Su Mu in the dream, because Su Mu in the dream was nearly omnipotent.
The two of them galloped along, and just ten minutes later, Yan Moxie got into a magnificent building and lurked.
Seeing this building, Su Mu looked slightly strange. He found that Yan Moxie's brain circuit was really different from that of normal people. He was really not afraid of death in order to hide and seek.
This magnificent building is none other than... the Star City Law Enforcement Bureau!
He knew that Sikong Zhen was currently in charge of the Star City Law Enforcement Bureau, but he still chose to hide in the Law Enforcement Bureau. He didn't know whether it was because he was brave because of his skill, or because he was simply competitive.
Su Mu smiled helplessly. It didn't matter to him anyway. Even if the location was the palace in the imperial capital, it would be the same. It didn't make any difference to him.
Then, his figure disappeared from the place.
When he appeared again, he had arrived at the Taoist Temple of Immortality.
Taoist priest Xuanqing is helping Sikong Zhen tell fortunes.
"Let's talk first, Ang, this is the last time. I want to live a few more years as a poor Taoist. After this time, no matter whether it succeeds or not, you don't want to come again." Taoist priest Xuan Qing said with a face full of reluctance.
Sikong Zhen nodded solemnly: "I promise the Taoist Master, this is the last time."
He agreed verbally, but in reality he had already made a plan in his heart. If he couldn't come up with it, he could only threaten Taoist Master Xuanqing with Jun Wushang's life.
Taoist Master Xuanqing was already about to die, and it was useless to force him, so he had no choice but to attack Jun Wushang.
Taoist Priest Xuanqing's face softened slightly, but in fact he secretly laughed in his heart, he must have been tricked!
He pretended to tell fortunes and started telling fortunes, again acting like a master, which made Sikong's temples tremble.
"Taoist Priest! Please skip these complicated rituals. I don't have so much time to spend here."
Taoist Priest Xuanqing saw that Sikong Zhen looked unkind, so he stopped what he was doing, went straight to the topic, and started chanting a mantra to the newly carved statue of the Immortal God.
After a moment, Elder Xuanqing's face turned pale, a mouthful of blood spat out, and his figure was on the verge of collapse.
Seeing this, Sikong Zhen quickly supported Taoist Xuanqing: "Failed?"
Taoist Master Xuanqing shook his head weakly: "It was successful, but the statue was newly carved, which caused the immortal power to not be transmitted smoothly, so the picture of the future displayed could not be formed at all and was intermittent.
But fortunately, I am sincere and I can still get a glimpse of the future. "
Sikong Zhen was immediately overjoyed: "Please speak frankly, Taoist Priest, the empire will never forget your contribution!"
"I didn't dare to be arrogant, but I settled for the next best thing and counted the other members of the Seven Deadly Sins."
"The other members are fine too. As long as you catch any one of the Seven Deadly Sins, you can always get their intelligence. I dare to ask, Chief, who is the one who figured it out?"
"Jealous...jealous."
"Jealous?" Sikong Zhen narrowed his eyes: "Who is his true identity?"
"I didn't calculate his identity, just his location."
"What position?" Sikong Zhen's tone was a little anxious, mainly because he looked at Taoist Master Xuanqing's weak appearance, as if he was about to die in the next second, as if he was giving his last words.
"Lan...Lan..."
"What!? Taoist Priest, tell me quickly, you can't die yet!" Sikong Zhen was so anxious that he quickly took out a bottle of valuable healing potion from his body, opened the bottle cap and poured it into Taoist Priest Xuanqing's mouth. .
But at this time, Taoist Priest Xuanqing seemed to have come back to his senses, staring at the bottle of extraordinary potion with bright eyes, snatching it away, and then put it in his bag.
He stood aside leisurely as if nothing was wrong, looking sanctimonious. He ignored Sikong Zhen's gloomy expression and said calmly: "Lan Shan."
"Taoist Master Xuanqing!" Sikong Zhen said in a deep voice, his eyes full of gloom.
"Jealousy invites Greedy to meet in Lanshan Mountain in three days. This is a good time to arrest the Seven Deadly Sins."
"Greed?" Sikong Zhen's anger froze: "Are you two guilty of seven deadly sins?"
"Yes, that's what I saw in the future anyway. Jealousy seems to have something important to do. I met Greedy. They are sneaky and must not have done anything good. You should go to Lanshan Mountain to ambush."
After receiving the news, Sikong Zhen frowned: "What kind of strength do these two have?"
Taoist Master Xuanqing thought for a while: "It should be gold. The two seemed to have some disagreements and even had a fight. It seems that they are strong in gold."
Hearing this, Sikong Zhen's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Taoist Master Xuanqing gave him a look of disdain: "You have to force me to do the math, and now you don't dare to do it. Then isn't it a waste for a poor Taoist? You can't figure it out, why don't you call someone?"
Sikong Zhen ignored Taoist Xuanqing's sarcasm and said in a deep voice: "Three days are too short. It's too late to go to the imperial capital to transfer people. Moreover, there is too much movement, which may alert others. The right given to me by the royal family is to transfer people to surrounding cities. , but among the recent cities, only the head of the Shentu family is the golden powerhouse.
Without knowing the capabilities of jealousy and greed, a two-on-two battle is by no means foolproof, even with the support of a group of extraordinary beings from the Law Enforcement Bureau.
What kind of damn organization are these Seven Deadly Sins? Are they really like the rumors that all seven of them are golden experts? "
"Hey, what do I mean? Who said it was two versus two? You can definitely use the time difference to have a two versus one!" Taoist Master Xuanqing said nonchalantly.
Sikong Zhen was stunned: "Time difference?" He seemed to realize something and quickly asked: "Taoist Master, but there are still some details in the future that you have not revealed?"
"In the future, Jealousy went to Lanshan Mountain one day in advance to wait, while Greedy came only on the third day. Do you understand now? You can send people to ambush Lanshan Mountain the next day to catch Envy first. , and then catch Greed on the third day, wouldn’t it be foolproof?”
Sikong Zhen was immediately happy.
Old Taoist Xuanqing was still thinking about himself: "Have you not seen the style of the Seven Deadly Sins Mask in the future scene before? If I were you, I would pretend to be greedy the next day and go to Lanshan Mountain as requested. Jealousy was unprepared and launched a sneak attack! After Jealousy was injured, you two golden experts couldn't handle it, two against one?
Then on the third day, he did the same thing again, pretending to be jealous and sneaking up on Greed who came to the appointment, and easily solved the seven deadly sins of the two! "
The more Sikong Zhen listened, the brighter his eyes became, because Taoist Xuanqing's plan was completely feasible. When he heard the time difference just now, he actually had a rough idea of the plan in his mind, but he didn't expect that Taoist Xuanqing would say it directly now.
"Taoist Master, if you can successfully arrest the Seven Deadly Sins this time, I will go to the royal family to express my merits for you. Also, I don't want that bottle of extraordinary potion."
Old Taoist Xuanqing suddenly blew his beard and glared, "You still want to take back the things that are in Pindao's hands?" There is no way!
Sikong Zhen, who was determined in his heart, hurriedly went to mobilize his troops. At this time, the voice of the old Taoist Xuanqing came: "Don't blame me for not reminding you that the future is not static. After you know the future, if you don't do anything, If you say it and don't do it, the future will basically not change. But once you do it, especially the bigger the noise you make, the greater the impact on the future.
And what I saw was only a glimpse of the future, not comprehensive. No one knows what will happen when jealousy and greed meet. "
Facing Taoist Master Xuanqing's kind reminder, Sikong Zhen had no intention of listening. He just waved his hand casually to show that he understood, and left the Changsheng Taoist Temple.
Su Mu, who witnessed the whole process, always had an elegant smile on his face, like a bystander, silently observing everything.
Things went smoothly at the Changsheng Taoist Temple. Except for the fact that the old Taoist Xuan Qing had a hard-to-change nature and corrupted a bottle of extraordinary potion from Sikong Zhen, everything went according to plan.
