Chapter 2368: Secret Investigation
"Not bad, Fatty. After two years of not seeing you, you can come up with a plan. Tell me about it."
Bai Chen was looking forward to it.
Under the gazes of the crowd, Fatty Guo coughed twice, raised his round chin at a 45-degree angle, and said lightly: "It's actually very simple. Just send someone to Xinglan Temple to tell them that Wanchao Pavilion is in the Central Region and near Jinzhou, trying to capture Tianbao Temple and has unknown secrets. In this way, Xinglan Temple will send strong men to attack Wanchao Pavilion. My trick is called borrowing a knife to kill! At the same time, Wanchao Pavilion will also retaliate against Xinglan Temple. When the two forces fight, we will take advantage of the chaos to sneak into the temple and rescue Xiaoya, isn't it~"
Bai Chen: "..."
Seeing that Bai Chen didn't say a word, Fatty Guo grinned: "Hehe, Boss, my suggestion is good, right?"
"Get lost!"
Bai Chen covered his face with a painful expression.
First of all, Wanchao Pavilion has no strength to fight against Xinglan Temple. If they want to make the Temple vulnerable, they must at least disrupt the entire martial arts world in the Central Region and let those old forces that are more hidden surface.
This is also the ultimate strategy that Bai Chen set for Han Ling and the scholar on the first day he came to Xuanzhou.
Secondly, if Wanchao Pavilion knew that the Temple was going to move against them, Mu Fan would definitely lead Wanchao Pavilion to evacuate, and would never stay as a target to give us the opportunity to kill with a borrowed knife.
Thirdly, if Xinglan Temple investigates Jinzhou, it is very likely to find out Chu Junran, and then the matter of Chenyao Sword Sect in the Central Region will not be concealed.
Compared with Fatty Guo who has a complete Emperor Seal, the purpose of Wanchao Pavilion is easy to imagine.
When that time comes, Xinglan Temple will send the twelve war gods to attack Chenyao Sword Sect at all costs. The knife is borrowed, but it is not to kill people, but to kill oneself.
It is obvious, even Bai Zhixue and the others can see it clearly, but Fatty Guo is still confused now.
"Boss, why are you so mean to me? Isn't this plan clever enough?"
He scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
"Old Xia, take him out to play."
Bai Chen's eyelids twitched and he said lightly.
"Hey, boss? This plan doesn't work. I have another..."
"What else? I've said so many times that if you want to chase my little sister, don't scratch your scalp in front of her. Go away!"
Old Xia directly strangled Fatty Guo's neck and dragged him out of the hall.
Sighing silently, Bai Chen continued: "I know everyone wants to rescue Xiaoya now, but her identity is the princess of the Baotu Empire. It is rumored that eating her can get an unparalleled powerful talent. Because of this, she is extremely important to the Xinglan Temple. This matter can't be rushed, understand?"
Bai Chen said this mainly to Su Su and the Demon Fairy Ancestor.
The two of them bowed their heads when they heard it.
"One misstep can lead to eternal regret. If someone hurts Xiaoya because of his impatience, I will never let him go!"
Bai Chen emphasized his tone again, letting everyone understand the seriousness of the matter.
This is not the time to challenge the temple. Qing Luoluo and Mao Di alone are far from enough.
Of course, if it is the entire Night of the Gods, it will be another matter. Unfortunately, several masters of the gods are on the side of the Lonely Sakura Sword.
"Demon Immortal Ancestor, how is the matter I asked you to investigate?"
Bai Chen asked with a smile.
Hearing this, the Demon Immortal Ancestor quickly put away the sadness in his heart and cheered up again.
"Replying to the Sect Master, after more than a year of observation, we finally found out that Liu Rufeng went to the suburbs a few days ago, and he met someone."
"Who did he meet?"
Bai Chen frowned slightly.
"The head of Luocao Hall, Uncle Luo!"
? !
This answer was completely beyond Bai Chen's expectations.
Honghu Academy was established, Fang Tianxiu was so harsh.
A gentleman who is willing to go for such a meager salary must have a purpose.
Just like him.
But what Bai Chen could not have imagined was that behind Liu Rufeng was Luo Caotang!
"Master, the Liu family is attached to my Wanjian Sect, it is impossible for him to meet Uncle Luo!"
Nan Yue'er was very puzzled.
"Yuer, you are too naive. Actually, I have sent people to secretly observe Liu Rufeng. Although this person is only at the Heavenly Dao Realm, there is definitely something wrong with him. On the surface, the Liu family is led by his father and his uncle, but in fact, the entire Liu family follows his lead."
"With him? How could such a gentle scholar like him?"
"That's just the appearance!" Bai Chen rested his chin lightly with his hand, thinking: "Originally, I thought that there must be a more powerful force behind him, but I didn't expect it to be Luocaotang..."
"Yes, the head of Luocaotang, the third uncle, is just at the peak of the Zhoutian Realm. They don't even have a Zhoushen strongman. Liu Rufeng works for him? Isn't that stupid!"
Yaoyao didn't understand either.
Facing the puzzled eyes of the two women in front, Bai Chen took a sip of tea lightly, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.
"You are right, no one will give up the strong for the weak. So, there is only one truth... This Luocaotang is not as simple as it looks on the surface!"
...
For a moment, everyone was silent.
The people of Xiaoyao Sword Sect must have believed Bai Chen's words.
Since he believed that Luocaotang was up to something, he must be right.
And judging from the fact that Liu Rufeng secretly colluded with his uncle, Luocaotang must really have some unknown ability!
When Bai Chen came to the Central Continent, his first goal was to save Fatty, but now it has changed to saving Xiaoya. The purpose is the same.
So he must find a way to dig out those old forces hidden in Xuanzhou.
Even if he has to dig three feet deep!
He will not believe that there is only one Wanchao Pavilion lurking here!
…
"What is the recent movement of Luocao Hall?"
Bai Chen raised his eyes and looked at Jing Yuan.
He has always underestimated Luocao Hall, so Jing Yuan is responsible for monitoring the movement of Luocao Hall.
Hearing this, Jing Yuan stood up and said solemnly: "I was planning to report this to you. Luocaotang has been very close to Shenfeng Pavilion recently. I used to think that he wanted to climb up the big tree of Shenfeng Pavilion first in the situation of Shenfeng Pavilion and Nanyue competing for hegemony, so that when Shenfeng Pavilion unifies the Jiuzhou Jianghu in the future, they can also be invincible. But now listening to what you said, I suddenly feel that Luocaotang may have other purposes."
"Yes, if Luocaotang is really a big fish lurking here, then Shen Heyun alone is not enough!"
Hearing this, Yaoyao's delicate body trembled violently.
"By the way, Shen Heyun specially invited me to a banquet before." Han Ling suddenly said: "He intends for my Dan Pavilion to refine pills only for their Shenfeng Pavilion, and his attitude is much stiffer than before."
...!
Stiff?
Bai Chen narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists unconsciously.
