In all previous Tiandu Secret Realm meetings, since the rise of Qiyun Sect, the first place has been taken by Qiyun Sect proportionally. It is a bit embarrassing for him not to be able to take back the first place, but The situation is stronger than the people. It has become like this. It is better than being at the bottom of the ranking and having nothing, right
And this method really impressed South Korea and Song Dynasty. Although the two countries wanted to win the first place, they did not have high hopes for winning the first place. They thought more about doing their best and letting nature take its course!
According to usual practice, Piaomiao Pavilion's rewards for the top three are: 300 million gold coins, 100 million gold coins, and 50 million gold coins.
The top three together are 450 million. If the three families are divided equally, each family can get 150 million.
In this way, although there is not more than 300 million for the first place, it is still more than 100 million for the second place. The reward is not as good as the first place but better than the second place.
For South Korea and the Song Dynasty, getting this reward is already better than expected, and it is enough to make a deal when they go back.
For Taishu Shanyue, even though he didn't get first place when he went back like this, it was still better than getting second place, and it was also to make it easier for him to do business.
Others don't know, but he knows that Jin is poor and secretly preparing for war. Jin needs to save financial resources and has reduced its financial supply to Qiyun Sect. Qiyun Sect really needs this money at present. , the whole sect is counting on him to bring back good news, otherwise the disciples of the Qiyun Sect would not have to go to the Tiandu Secret Realm to do their best!
He also wanted to go through the motions like the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, Tianxing Sect, and Ling Sect, but Qiyun Sect didn't have that condition. Those three sects were really rich, and they didn't need to risk their disciples' lives to earn the money. If he couldn't bring back a considerable amount of money, After returning the bonus, it is really difficult to face the whole party.
The three companies thus reached an agreement and joined forces to grab the first, second, and third places, and the combined bonuses were equally divided.
As for the State of Zhao, the result of the conspiracy between the three families was to exclude it, and preparations have been made to join forces to kill the State of Zhao.
However, Zhao State has not been touched for the time being, and Zhao State's manpower must be used to deal with Yan, Wei, and Qi together.
On the surface, the four families formed an alliance to join forces, but in reality, the three families worked together to fool Zhao Guo. The reason was that three versus three had no chance of winning, while four versus three had a lot to offer.
The three families made a decision together. Zhao Guo had no room to refuse and did not dare to refuse. He could only accept it.
After that, the four families jointly searched for the whereabouts of Yan, Wei, and Qi, but the results of the search were not worthy of their hard work.
…
"We shouldn't have escaped at that time. If we escaped, it would appear that we were guilty of thieves?"
Deep in the vast mountains and forests, Liu Xing, the elder of the Xuanbing Sect, booed and sighed.
Yan Li, the elder of Zijindong who was sitting cross-legged under the tree, snorted coldly, "Is it useful for us to explain the situation at that time? If we don't let them search me, will they believe it? Can I put down my dignity and let people search me, or can you put down that Is your face being searched for? Which sect can afford to lose face like this? If we don’t leave in time, the four of them will definitely join forces to kill us. You should feel lucky that you got away in time!"
Recently, the three families of Yan, Wei and Qi have been thinking about the previous incident.
Because of that incident, the three families have now completely shrunk. For fear of being encountered, the spirit seeds did not dare to send out their manpower to look for them. They have been hiding here and not daring to run around.
"I was surprised. The place was surrounded by us at that time. We checked everything above and below the water. How could the person disappear?" Chu Fengping shook his head in confusion.
Don't talk about him, even Yan Li was surprised by this matter. How Niu Youdao escaped was unbelievable even if he thought about it.
Shan Hai, the elder of Xiaoyao Palace who was also confused, suddenly said, "According to the following, I saw a person from Pianmiao Pavilion leaving at that time. Could it be that Niu Youdao escaped by pretending to be a person from Pianmiao Pavilion?"
As soon as these words came out, several people turned to look at him.
This provides everyone with an idea, but no one is sure. After all, it is normal for Piaomiao Pavilion to send people to investigate the situation in the secret territory of Tiandu, and some people have seen it occasionally.
The elder of Shouzheng Pavilion hesitated and said: "The person pretending to be Piaomiao Pavilion is looking for death. How can Niu Youdao be so courageous? In the blink of an eye, he changed into a person from Piaomiao Pavilion. Is that possible?"
Several people were silent, no one was sure.
Yan Li was frightened by their statement. He coughed dryly and said: "Impossible!"
Chu Fengping looked back and said, "I think it's very possible. Why do you say it's impossible?"
"You, you are obsessed with resentment." Yan Li pointed at him and then at his head, "Think about it for yourself. Before each of us enters the secret realm of Tiandu, when entering Tiangu, Piaomiao Pavilion will have to Check one by one and verify the identity. Not only Niu Youdao, no one can bring in counterfeit things. And Niu Youdao is different from us. He caused trouble in Tiangu and was taken to Piao Miao Pavilion for review. Again, there’s no way he could have brought in anything counterfeit.”
The words were spoken by himself, and although he was speaking in a favor, after he said the reason, he felt that it was indeed the truth. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and his frightened mind calmed down.
Everyone basically nodded slightly when they heard the words, feeling that the words made sense.
Chu Fengping hesitated and said: "There is no chance outside, could it be done by entering the secret territory of Tiandu?"
Yan Li: "Are you crazy? The clothes in Piaomiao Pavilion are all specially made. You can tell the authenticity at a glance. Where did Niu Youdao get them? You don't think that Niu Youdao can force someone from Piaomiao Pavilion. Robbery, right? If such a thing had really happened, Piaomiao Pavilion would have mobilized a large number of people to investigate. Even if it is inconvenient to investigate within the secret realm, everyone will be able to discover the abnormal movements of Piaomiao Pavilion as soon as they leave the secret realm. If the matter is not investigated clearly, No one can leave Tiandu Peak easily!"
Chu Fengping nodded slowly, "You are right. If you go out and watch the movement, you will know that if there is any problem in Piaomiao Pavilion, it is most likely to be related to that guy."
Yan Li didn't want to cause trouble here, so he said sincerely: "Only the few disciples below saw it, no one else saw it, I didn't see it, and you didn't see it either. You and I don't have any confidence in our hearts. This kind of thing It's better not to mess around without evidence. Once you provoke Piao Miao Ge to be more serious, Niu Youdao will hit you again, saying that you want to use Pian Miao Ge's hand to get rid of him because of personal grudges. If you prove the way to escape clearly, then you are asking for trouble. You insist on having trouble with Niu, but a lot of people have witnessed it with their own eyes!"
"In short, my attitude is, don't talk nonsense without evidence. If Brother Chu wants to bring up Piaomiao Pavilion and make the matter bigger, that is Brother Chu's business. I declare in advance that I don't know anything. Brother Chu, what's the matter? Get involved with Piaomiao Pavilion yourself, and don't get involved with me, I haven't heard anything and don't know anything."
The others looked at each other with no idea of their attitude. Not speaking was also an attitude.
Chu Fengping was silent.
…
The sun and the moon fly by, and four months in the secret realm are equivalent to nine months in the outside world.
The number of people coming in is really limited, and the sky is huge. If a group of people really want to hide, trying to find them without any clues is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
They couldn't find it, and they didn't know where the people from Yan, Wei, and Qi were hiding. The people from the other four countries decided to return and guard the exit of the secret place, waiting for people to come and throw themselves into the trap. It was impossible for the people from those families to hide in the secret place forever and not go back. .
After deciding to return, Zhao State was immediately in trouble. Jin, Han, and Song Dynasty decisively launched a surprise attack on Zhao State.
It had been fine for so long, but a vicious hand suddenly came, and all the monks in the Zhao Kingdom were killed by surprise.
Faced with a joint attack by the three families, the unprepared monks of the Zhao Kingdom did not even organize an effective counterattack. They were almost destroyed, and only a few managed to escape. Those who fled did not know where to flee, so they fled in grief.
None of the people deployed by Xiaoyue Pavilion on Zhao's side survived, they were all killed!
The spiritual seeds that Zhao had worked so hard to collect fell into the hands of others and were divided among Jin, Han, and Song.
The three families returned immediately after they succeeded, and they had to return in advance. They had traveled a long distance, and it took a lot of time to return on the way.
After arriving in the ancient deep forest, the three families immediately joined forces to guard the exit area and wait for the enemy.
But before they arrived, someone had already arrived. People from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, Ling Sect, and Tianxing Sect had all arrived, and they were just waiting for the exit to open before going out.
These three companies have no intention of making money from this, and they don't want to offend anyone. They are just going through the motions to complete the task, and they have joined forces. This is also the consistent behavior of the three companies.
The three families are not large. Each family only has a hundred people when they come in, and together they only have 300 people. Every time they return, they will join forces to deal with any unexpected events.
Although there are not many people, the three families have strong financial resources and a lot of talismans. When they are scattered, outsiders can sneak attack and make some money for fun. When the three families unite, no one dares to act rashly against them, otherwise they will inevitably There will be heavy losses.
Jin, Han, and Song had no intention of provoking them, nor did they dare to provoke them openly. Although those three families did not operate any huge forces outside, their respective strengths were enough to influence the wars between various countries, so it was better for them to remain neutral.
Those who ranked high on the elixir list and entered the Tiandu Secret Realm basically came back early, and basically defected to the three neutral sects who had joined forces to take advantage of the opportunity and leave safely together. The three neutral sects also accepted them, and the temporary cooperation in the short term, with the help of some masters, can increase the possibility of reducing risks, and it is a matter of mutual benefit.
Ximen Qingkong also came back, and the depressed Wei Duo followed him.
Yan Baoru also came back, but his movements seemed to have lost the ease of the past, and he seemed unusually silent.
She was actually the first to come back, and when she came back, there was no one else here who had returned.
Yan Li would be very surprised if he saw her here, because Niu Youdao had told Yan Li that if he saw Yan Baoru return to the Yan Kingdom, he would kill her without mercy!
In short, we cannot give Yan Baoru a chance to speak. We must scare Yan Baoru away and force Yan Baoru to come back here early.
This is just a precaution for Niu Youdao. Under normal circumstances, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find this woman back after being separated from the Yan country for too long. The Yan country did not leave anything for her. What a sign to look for.
And without the help of other eyes and ears, it is difficult to find other forces in this vast place. Even if other forces see her, they will not take the initiative to expose her traces. After all, she has nothing worth grabbing and her strength is high, so there is no need for others to cause such trouble.
The most important thing is that this woman's network was limited. At that time, she didn't know what he was doing by hanging out with the group of overseas monks, so she followed him secretly and was exposed.
Niu Youdao's prediction, coupled with an inducement, estimated that this woman had no choice but to return here when she was helpless and alone.
