Green Ripple Market is located at the junction of the Qixing River and the Baxian River. Further upstream of the Qixing River, the water flows rapidly and meanders with great height differences.
Originally there were five major sects coexisting in this area, but now only the Tianxing Sect is left, occupying all the land and resources on the west bank of the Seven Star River Basin.
Two of the remaining four sects were destroyed, one was merged into the Tianxing Sect, and the remaining one, the Yuquan Sect, could barely compete with the Tianxing Sect.
This was mainly because the Yuquan Sect united more than half of the small sects and forces in the Qixing River Basin, and helped each other in the Yunping Mountains on the east bank of the Qixing River, which is why it was not eaten away by the Tianxing Sect bit by bit.
Qianji Tower, which is supported by the Zhuge family, is also among them. Jiang Yuebai guessed that it is hard to say that the Yuquan Sect has been able to persist until now without the assistance of the Zhuge family.
While Jiang Yuebai was taking Bai Jiuyou to find a place to live, he heard a lot about the Tianxing Sect and Chenzhou Sanren from passers-by.
In the past six months, ninety percent of those who were wiped out by the fake Chen Zhou were from the second- and third-rate small sects and families under the Yuquan Sect.
Therefore, people have been in a panic recently, and some small sects have begun to leave the Yuquan Sect and join the Tianxing Sect. The Tianxing Sect's territory on the east coast is getting bigger and bigger, and has already reached the vicinity of Yunping Mountain.
Just half a month ago, the fake Chen Zhou led his men to massacre a small family that had defected to the Tianxing Sect and stole the family's treasure. Many people from the Tianxing Sect were also killed or injured in that battle.
It was precisely because of this incident that people's doubts about the Tianxing Sect were slightly dispelled.
Jiang Yuebai looked around in the market town, but there were no vacant guest rooms to stay in. The shop owner said that a lot of independent cultivators had come to the Seven Star River Basin recently, all for the bounty of Chen Zhou San Ren, so the market town was full, and the same was true for other places.
Jiang Yuebai and Bai Jiuyou stared at each other in amazement. Finally, they could only sit in the teahouse for a while and wait for Yan Hongyu to find out the news before deciding where to go next.
While waiting idly, Jiang Yuebai shared his experience of locating the Nine Nether Gate in the past six months with Bai Jiuyou, asking her to comprehend and think about it first. What if she could find the Nine Nether Gate without any assistance
After all, Bai Jiuyou has always learned things faster than Jiang Yuebai.
Jiang Yuebai closed his eyes and rested, and used his mind to check the practice method of the fourth level of "Dragon God Transformation" again, preparing to absorb the essence and blood of Zhulong.
If all goes well, the original Yinglong power in her body can be upgraded to Zhulong power, and there will definitely be great improvements in all aspects.
The next time it sees Ao Juan, it will have to call her boss instead of treating her as its own little fairy.
Yan Hongyu found out the information very quickly and came back in just half a day. As soon as she came back, she stood in front of Jiang Yuebai with her head lowered and her hands clasped. She waited for Jiang Yuebai to set up the soundproof barrier before she began to report what she had found out.
"You said that the next target of the fake Chen Zhou's extermination will be Qianji Tower?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Yan Hongyu nodded hurriedly, "That's right, that damned bastard, the fake Chen Zhou who dared to impersonate the master was so arrogant that he nailed a 'Rakshasa Order' on the plaque of the main building of the Qianji Tower in Guannan Fort a few days ago. It's said outside that if the Rakshasa Order is issued, the whole family will be slaughtered. It's right."
"Did you say when?"
Yan Hongyu pondered, "I calculated the forces that were wiped out before. It took about seven days from receiving the Luosha Order to being wiped out. Now five days have passed. Even if we set out now, we won't be able to make it to Guannan Fort in time."
Jiang Yuebai tapped the table with her fingers. Their mission this time was to capture the fake sunken ship and protect Qianji Tower. The latter was more important than the former. What should they do when time was running out
"How many people are under the fake Chen Zhou's command?" Jiang Yuebai asked again.
"Two to three hundred people. In fact, in terms of strength, that damn fake Shen Zhou is not as good as Qianji Tower. I feel there is something fishy here. The fake Shen Zhou must be related to Tianxing Sect."
"Now this is forcing Qianji Tower to either choose a side or leave. If Yuquan Sect loses the weapons supply from Qianji Tower, its strength will definitely be greatly reduced."
Jiang Yuebai raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Hongyu, "You figured this out?"
Yan Hongyu shrank her head shyly, "Isn't this obvious? Except for the Chen family that was exterminated last time, all the other families that were exterminated were at odds with the Tianxing Sect. The Chen family must have been exterminated because they couldn't reach an agreement on the price with the Tianxing Sect. The Tianxing Sect is treating people like fools."
"Here, I have drawn it all, my lord, please see."
"Don't call me Lord, just call me True Lord."
"well."
Jiang Yuebai took the yellow paper handed over by Yan Hongyu. On it was a picture of a black-armored bee with a bloody skull pattern on its wings.
This means that the fake Chen Zhou has seen the real Chen Zhou in action, and might have been one of the onlookers when she killed Dong Yue last time.
But there were too many people to screen.
Yan Hongyu continued, "I also found out that the damn fake Shen Zhou has four golden elixirs, two evil cultivators who drive evil spirits, one insect tamer, and a magic swordsman. The swordsman is second on the wanted list."
"That damn fake Shen Zhou's moves are nothing like the moves used by our Master... Master. I don't know if those people are blind. They couldn't recognize that damn fake. They tarnished our Master's reputation for nothing. Ugh!"
Yan Hongyu put her hands on her hips with an indignant look on her face. Jiang Yuebai glanced at her and she quickly put down her hands and clenched them together, shrinking her head and becoming cautious.
"You have gathered good information. Go and help me with one more thing. Once you are done, I can let you follow me and handle miscellaneous tasks."
Hearing this, Yan Hongyu was overjoyed, "Just give me your orders, Master. I will do anything for you."
"You are already dead."
Yan Hongyu: … …
Jiang Yuebai took out a pen and paper and drew a token in the shape of the Taiyin fan, with the magic character "Zhou" written on it.
"Make a few tokens according to this totem and distribute one to all the shops and forces under the Tianxing Sect. Then spread the word that they are pretending to be Chenzhou Sanren. If they are really Chenzhou Sanren, they will be slaughtered within three days. Anyway, you can spread the word as you like and be as ruthless as you want."
Yan Hongyu's eyes lit up, "Master, this move is really powerful! And the painting on this token is high-end and classy, much better looking than that shabby Rakshasa token."
"I'll leave Lieque to you. When you're done, come find me at Qianji Tower in Guannan Fort."
Jiang Yuebai put Leihu Lieque into the spirit beast bag and handed it to Yan Hongyu. He called Bai Jiuyou, put down a spirit stone as tea money, and left first.
Yan Hongyu held the spirit beast bag and blueprints, feeling as if she had forgotten something.
It was not until she walked outside the shop where she customized the token that she realized that Zhenjun had not given her any money!
Yan Hongyu was so anxious that she turned around in circles, but she could not find any trace of Jiang Yuebai. In desperation, she could only cry and take out her own private money.
Next time, she must ask Zhenjun for reimbursement, otherwise she will cry to death at Zhenjun’s feet and won’t be able to get up, hum!
After leaving the market, Jiang Yuebai took out Poyunchong, left a clone to control it, and quickly rushed to Guannanbao in the middle of Yunping Mountain.
If we work day and night without counting the cost, we can arrive there within two days.
I hope everything will be in time. Don't let her arrive and the mission target is gone, otherwise she will get angry!
