After listening to Yi Wu's statement, Lu Li didn't speak for a long time because what Yi Wu said was too shocking. If what he said was true, the actions of Jitian Demon Kingdom and Bazhou Family could not be said to be aimed at Mu Ning. Qiu Yiren's assassination was a rebellion that was enough to plunge half of the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom into turmoil.
All the aristocratic families in Qingzhou and Bazhou rebelled, and even the aristocratic families in Yanzhou participated. This shows that even if Mu Ningqiu can really return to Yanzhou with Mu Hongxiu, they may not be really safe.
What's more important is that Yanzhou is Mu Hongxiu's fiefdom, and even the aristocratic families there can be instigated by the Jitian Demon Kingdom to participate in the assassination of Mu Hongxiu. It can be seen just how bad the current situation in the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom is.
"According to your statement, all the aristocratic families in Qingzhou and Bazhou have participated in this rebellion, so why did they only send one grandmaster this time? To be on the safe side, sending out multiple grandmasters can not only kill King Yan can even overthrow the royal family of the Holy Kingdom in one go. When the time comes and you cooperate internally and externally, it will be easy for the Jitian Demon Kingdom to unify the ancient times."
Lu Li raised his eyes and his tone gradually became cold.
Because there is a big loophole in Yi Wu's words, that is, Qingzhou and Bazhou combined have at least twenty grand masters, and this does not include the hidden combat power of each family.
A conservative estimate is that if both the aristocratic families in the two states have rebelled, then the Jitian Demon Kingdom has already instigated at least thirty strong men from the Mingyou Realm. With this power gathered together, even the royal family of the Holy Kingdom would not dare to despise it.
Especially when civil strife is likely to have broken out in the Tianbu, it is not that difficult for thirty grandmasters to hide their traces from the eyes and ears of the Tiantian Holy Kingdom.
As long as the Jitian Demon Kingdom can make good use of this power and launch a surprise attack on the imperial capital, even if it cannot capture the center of the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom in one fell swoop, it can at least inflict severe damage to the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom.
No matter how powerful the experts in the imperial capital are, facing so many grandmasters, they will probably suffer a large number of casualties.
For example, a strong man like Lin Wangbei might be able to defeat one against three, or even one against five. But once the number of grandmasters exceeds ten, even the top masters will not be able to fight head-on.
Perhaps there are many unexpected factors in this. For example, most of the top masters at the level of Mu Jing and Jitian Demon Emperor have real killing moves. Even if he is injured, it is not difficult to annihilate ten or even twenty grandmasters. Moreover, even if he is defeated, such a top grandmaster cannot escape even if he wants to escape.
But even taking these unexpected circumstances into account, the power of all the aristocratic families in the two states can definitely cause a violent turmoil within the Tiantian Holy Kingdom. Because apart from the Grandmaster, the real backbone of a family is also a warrior in the Immortal Realm.
Thinking about the turmoil caused by the dead soldiers of the Jitian Demon Kingdom in the Imperial Capital, most of them were still in the Tongxuan realm. If various aristocratic families sent a surprise attack team composed of immortal realm warriors to attack the imperial capital, what terrible consequences would it have
"I can answer this for you." Yi Wu said calmly: "Although the aristocratic families in Qingzhou and Bazhou have 'rebelled', they are not betraying the Holy Kingdom of Devouring Heaven, but I don’t want King Yan to return to Yanzhou alive and successfully take over the power of these two states.”
"The Emperor of the Holy Kingdom wants King Yan to sit in Qingzhou and Bazhou and form a front in the center of the Holy Kingdom that can support all directions. The forces of the two states' families and the private soldiers in each house need to be counted and handed over to King Yan. . Qingzhou and Bazhou have special terrains and have their own systems and rules. The sudden appearance of King Yan is tantamount to taking away their rights and directly destroying the benefits they could have obtained."
"Don't underestimate the value that these noble families place on their own interests. Even though King Yan is one of the nine kings of the Holy Kingdom, she came to take over these two states with the emperor's order. But she has violated too many people's bottom lines, and she Now he is no longer the invincible strong man. King Yan is in a weak state. In the eyes of those powerful people, taking her life is no different than crushing an ant. So they betrayed King Yan, and It’s not the Holy Kingdom, let alone the royal family.”
Yi Wu explained this and said calmly: "They know very well that without the blessing of the Holy Kingdom of Swallowing Heaven, everything they have now will become a passing cloud. Therefore, they only need to pay the minimum price and kill King Yan. Solve all problems. The Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom is still the same Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom, and Qingzhou and Bazhou will still be under their control."
Although this statement is not impeccable, it is an explanation that best suits the core interests of those powerful families.
Because there is a huge difference in difficulty between betraying the Holy Kingdom of Swallowing Heaven and killing King Yan to stabilize one's current interests and status. And even if they really help the Jitian Demon Kingdom to unify the ancient times, no one can guarantee that the Jitian Demon Kingdom will not offend and kill the donkey.
Rather than surrender, it is better to choose cooperation. The enemy of your enemy is your friend, this is an eternal truth.
When King Yan became their enemy, Jitian Demon Kingdom naturally became their 'friend'.
No matter how serious the consequences of liaising with foreign countries are, they are nothing compared to the rights that are firmly held in one's hands.
"They killed King Yan to ensure that their own interests would not be harmed. Are you going to kill King Yan just because of the ridiculous prophecy that the Demon Emperor Jitian heard back then?"
Speaking of this, Lu Li suddenly became interested in the reason why Jitian Demon Kingdom was so intent on staring at Mu Hongxiu.
If it was for Shenwei Division, then they could completely avoid Mu Hongxiu and attack Tianbu directly. Of course, the current Jitian Demon Kingdom has already begun to do this, and cooperation with the Divine Religion is the best proof. Therefore, on the premise of being sure to annihilate the Tianbu, Mu Hongxiu's life and death is simply an insignificant matter to the Jitian Demon Kingdom.
Even if Mu Hongxiu is still alive, if the Jitian Demon Kingdom is really determined to destroy Tianbu, the role she can play will be very limited.
Under this premise, the various plans and assassinations of the Jitian Demon Kingdom against Mu Hongxiu seemed very illogical.
"You also know that prophecy?"
Yi Wu looked a little surprised, but he understood in an instant: "Yes, that trash Long An fell into the hands of the Tianbu. He should have leaked the information about the march plan. He will tell you this prophecy, and that's not it." What a strange thing."
The intelligence organization of Jitian Demon Kingdom is not a vegetarian either.
After Long An was captured, he came into contact with Lu Li's affairs and did not escape Moying's information network.
Coupled with the sudden reversal of the war situation at the border, the originally disadvantaged Holy Kingdom of Tiantian seemed to have its eyes opened. Under the leadership of King Wu Lie, the movements of the Demon Kingdom's army were predicted several times in advance. This shows that the Holy Kingdom of Tiantian must have mastered the situation. The march map of the Demon Kingdom’s army, as well as many core military information. Combining the two, the Demon Kingdom immediately guessed that Long An couldn't bear the torture and had revealed all the secrets he knew.
"Why, you also think this prophecy is ridiculous?" Lu Li said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the Jitian Demon Emperor, as a top master, was only half a step away from reaching the realm of heaven and human beings, but in the end he still believed in such a ridiculous prophecy."
Yi Wu said coldly: "The matter of the Demon King is not something I can discuss behind his back. Killing King Yan is just to eliminate the evil troubles for the Demon Kingdom. It has nothing to do with any prophecy."
His attitude was very resolute. It was not that he avoided the prophecy itself, but that he avoided talking about the Demon Emperor behind his back.
The more powerful a master is, the more he possesses magical powers that ordinary people cannot understand. Ordinary masters have the ability to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. A top powerhouse like Jitian Demon Emperor will instantly sense signs if someone has malicious intentions.
Not to mention that as a general of the Demon Kingdom, Yi Wu would immediately notice if he criticized the Demon Emperor behind his back.
Therefore, it was not that Yi Wu did not dare to talk about the prophecy, but he did not dare to question the Demon Emperor's decision.
His attitude exactly proved what Lu Li was thinking.
The Demon Emperor Jitian is obsessed with killing Mu Hongxiu, and it must be because of that illusory prophecy. With an attitude of trusting others, since he couldn't marry Mu Hongxiu back to the Demon Kingdom, he simply killed her to completely eliminate the possibility of this prophecy coming true to other people.
After confirming this, Lu Li was silent for a moment, and then said: "I've finished asking my questions."
