Chapter 920 There Must Be a War
Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at Kang Jingchen with a faint smile.
"Oh? Cooperation? I'm quite interested. The young prince might as well tell you what kind of cooperation method it is. Let's talk about it."
Kang Jingchen's heart suddenly tightened, and there were beads of sweat on his palms. He had come up with the cooperation himself, and had drafted it in his mind several times in advance.
He hurriedly took a deep breath secretly, suppressed the surge of tension in his heart, forced out a slightly forced smile, and cleared his throat.
"Zhao Clan Master, I think there have been a lot of rumors recently. I wonder if you have heard that I am responsible for a city disappearing mysteriously?"
Zhao Yun nodded slightly, with an indifferent expression: "I have heard some rumors, but this thing is too bizarre. A city just disappeared out of thin air. Anyone who heard it would smack their lips and doubt whether it was true or not.
When the young prince mentions this matter now, does he want to tell me that this rumor is not groundless? "
The news of the disappearance of Long Qing City spread throughout the Daqian Dynasty, almost to the point where everyone knew about it.
Naturally, Zhao Yun would not pretend not to know. That would be too clumsy and would be seen through by others at a glance.
Kang Jingchen's expression instantly became solemn, and he nodded silently: "To be honest with Sect Leader Zhao, that rumor is indeed true.
And the disappearance of that city was not a natural disaster, but man-made.
The person behind it must have a huge plan, but we have searched in many ways and have not been able to find any useful clues so far. "
Zhao Yun's eyes were sharp: "Does the young prince want me, Wan Zemen, to also participate in investigating this matter?
Not to mention that my Wanze City and Longqing City are far apart. The mountains are high and the roads are far away. Even if I have the intention, I am afraid it will be out of reach.
Furthermore, why would I, Wanzemen, get involved for no reason?
This matter has no direct connection with me, Wanzemen.
What if the disappearance of Longqing City was really caused by the hand of a certain powerful person, and if I, Wanzemen, intervened hastily, wouldn’t I be asking for trouble and causing an unnecessary disaster?
Maybe the next person to disappear from this world will be me, Wanze City. "
Kang Jingchen had already been prepared and expected that Zhao Yun would respond like this, so when faced with the doubts at this moment, he did not rush to defend himself, nor did he expect Zhao Yun to answer it.
He just wanted to use the disappearance of Long Qingcheng to explore Zhao Yun's tone.
After all, the resource land given to Wanzemen last time also disappeared inexplicably.
It happened to be at the same time that Long Qingcheng disappeared inexplicably. How could this not make people suspicious?
On his mission this time, he came to Wanzemen to find out and see if Wanzemen had something to do with the disappearance of Long Qingcheng.
"What Clan Leader Zhao said is indeed reasonable. At first glance, there is indeed no direct connection between the disappearance of Wanze Clan and Longqing City, but..."
Kang Jingchen deliberately prolonged his tone and secretly observed Zhao Yun's reaction, trying to catch even the slightest change in expression on his face.
Zhao Yun frowned slightly, as if he noticed something in Kang Jingchen's words, but he still maintained a calm surface and said a few words calmly: "My young prince, please speak directly and don't beat around the bush."
Kang Jingchen couldn't see any expression on Zhao Yun's face. Seeing how impeccable he was, he could only nod his head, and then said: "Sect Master Zhao is right, Wanze Sect is indeed not directly involved in this matter.
But now that Longqing City has disappeared out of thin air, it has set off a storm in our Daqian Dynasty, the court is in turmoil, and the people are panicked.
I, the Imperial Family of Daqian, want to find out the mastermind behind the scenes and restore peace and prosperity to the people of the world.
As a powerful force that we should not underestimate, Wanzemen can help Daqian at this time.
Not only can it consolidate the foundation of our Daqian dynasty, but it is also an excellent opportunity for Wanzemen to demonstrate their strength and expand their influence.
I came here this time with the sincerity of my father. I just want to have a frank meeting with you, Master Zhao, to discuss this matter together, hoping that Wanze Clan can lend a helping hand. "
As he spoke, he raised his hand and motioned for the confidants behind him to come forward and present a gift list.
On the gift list, there are densely packed lists of rare treasures and rare cultivation resources carefully prepared by Daqian.
If you take out any piece of it, it will attract everyone to compete for it in the market. It is obvious that it is worth a lot of money.
Zhao Yun glanced at the gift list, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, outlined a smile full of disdain, and sneered: "Based on these, you are trying to get me, Wanzemen, into this unnecessary trouble? Little prince, you are so I’m afraid I’m joking.”
Kang Jingchen frowned slightly. Although he expected that things would not go smoothly, he did not expect that Zhao Yun would refuse so simply and without mercy.
Little did he know, how could Zhao Yun let go so easily?
Chen Fan had already secretly informed the Emperor of Daqian's plans.
Emperor Daqian's sincerity was not limited to this. The things on the gift list were probably brought out by Kang Jingchen on his own initiative as a stepping stone.
Since Emperor Daqian had the intention of testing Wanzemen, Zhao Yun naturally didn't mind letting them shed more blood.
Kang Jingchen calmed down, put on an extremely sincere look on his face, and said sincerely: "Zhao Clan Master, these are just some small things I did.
My father took this matter very seriously, and this time he specially provided two more places for cultivation resources to show his sincerity.
Moreover, the current situation is critical, and the disappearance of Long Qingcheng may be just the beginning.
If the truth is not found out as soon as possible, this disaster is likely to spread rapidly like a prairie fire, affecting the entire Dagan Dynasty.
By then, no egg will be left unbroken under the overturned nest, and even a strong sect like Wanzemen will not be able to escape unscathed.
Sect Master Zhao, you are extraordinary. If you can help us, our Dagan will be like a tiger with wings, and we will surely find out the real culprit behind the disappearance of Longqing City. "
After saying that, he waved his hand and signaled his confidant behind him to present another exquisite scroll.
The scroll slowly unfolded, and it vividly depicted the detailed topographic map of the two resource areas.
The mountains and rivers were winding and twisting, like a giant dragon entrenched.
The distribution of minerals and spiritual plants was staggered and shining, and it could be seen at a glance that they were all Feng Shui treasures.
The locations of these two resource areas also happened to be not far from Wanze City.
And on the scroll, the distribution of mountains and rivers, spiritual mines and spiritual plants was clear at a glance.
Zhao Yun's eyes A quick glance at the scroll revealed that the resources in these two places were no less abundant than those given last time.
It seemed that the Emperor of Dagan was determined to find out the details of Wanzemen this time and spared no expense.
However, no matter how much Dagan sent, it would never come back.
Since the Emperor of Dagan was still determined to find out the details of Wanzemen, Zhao Yun didn't mind letting them return empty-handed.
Anyway, there would be a war between Wanzemen and the Dagan Dynasty sooner or later. It was a foregone conclusion, and it was only a matter of time.
