"Elder brother!" the round-faced old man shouted with a frown.
The red-faced old man waved his hands and said: "Third brother, forget it, don't destroy your prestige. The Duke's Palace is strong, but judging from this time, they lack the spirit of bravery. It is not a big concern if the martial arts masters lose this spirit." , we have been suppressed for so many years, we should regain our reputation and let the world know about Qingmang Mountain!"
The ancestors of Qingmang Mountain were also prominent for a while, but the disciples of the younger generation failed to surpass their predecessors and barely maintained the inheritance. With the rise of Xue Yuexuan, the status of Qingmang Mountain declined and was looked down upon by the world.
In addition to Xue Yuexuan, Duke Yiguo's Mansion is also becoming more and more powerful.
With the strength of Duke Yiguo's government, the entire Chongming Road martial arts sect was forced to breathe.
At this time, a leader is needed to stand up and unite everyone to fight against Duke Yi.
Duke Yi's Mansion is strong, but it cannot be stronger than the alliance of several sects. As long as he grasps a certain degree of control, he can counterattack Duke Mansion and overwhelm him.
Duke Yi's Mansion wants to marry Duke Huai's Mansion. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Once the two palaces get married, the court will definitely be uneasy, and the other palaces will also be wary. More importantly, several sects on Chongming Road will have a sense of crisis. Once the two palaces unite, there will be no way for them to survive.
This is the best opportunity to unite various factions to deal with Duke Yi's Mansion. If you can't seize it and the opportunity is fleeting, then you will never want to fight against Duke Yi's Mansion again.
"Senior Brother, I'm afraid I'm going to backfire!" The round-faced old man sighed: "The Duke's Mansion seems to have retracted, just like a punch. Taking it back and then hitting it back is the most terrifying thing!"
"Haha, they may be confused now. They don't know who did it." The old man with a sallow face shook his head and laughed: "They have too many enemies, and they won't be able to find us for a while!"
"I hope they come here quickly!" The red-faced old man sighed: "I'm afraid of long nights and many dreams."
"Eldest brother, you are worrying too much. Our major factions are now in the same boat. They can only follow one road until they reach darkness!" said the old man with a scorched face.
"It's only been a few days, and the disciples are already full of resentment." The round-faced old man frowned and said, "If it really doesn't work, let these masters of various factions live outside the valley and stay far away to avoid fighting!"
"How could they be willing to move outside the valley?" the sallow-faced old man said, "after all, we invited them here."
"Humph, it's not like they're doing us a favor." The round-faced old man said dissatisfied: "This is doing them a favor, as if we owe them something. I really can't stand it!"
"Let's suppress this matter first," the red-faced old man waved his hand and said: "It seems that we can't wait for the Duke's office to investigate on its own, and find a way to reveal the information to them so that they can come to us as soon as possible!"
"Elder brother, which faction do you think is the one who sent us the news?" The sallow-faced old man asked, "Is it from the imperial court?"
"We are inseparable." The red-faced old man said coldly: "They have no good intentions either. They wish that we would fight to the death with the Duke's Mansion, and our vitality will be greatly damaged!"
"I'm worried that it will be another sect." The round-faced old man frowned and said, "When we are exhausted, they suddenly appear, then we will become a joke!"
"Don't worry, the five major factions are strong enough together. They are not afraid of anyone." The sallow-faced old man said angrily: "I want you to say something nice, third brother, and don't just say such depressing things!"
"I'm not optimistic about this alliance anyway!" the round-faced old man snorted.
The red-faced old man said: "Third brother, everything can't be stable. If you want to have huge gains, you have to take huge risks. We can't have both. We can only take this gamble. It's done. Qingmang Mountain is the top martial arts sect in the world. No way." , then just lie dormant for a few years, it’s nothing.”
"Alas..." The round-faced old man nodded slowly.
Chu Li stood by the main hall, listened to the conversation between the three, shook his head, and disappeared again.
Chu Li appeared in the east wing of the courtyard of the Secret Guard Mansion, opened the door and went out.
Xu Huande was practicing his palms in the courtyard. His movements were stretched and slow. You could faintly hear the sound of blood flowing in his body. His cultivation was extremely deep.
Chu Li came to the opposite side of him and started punching slowly.
"Commander Xu, did the people from the Secret Guard's Mansion sell the information about the Duke's Mansion to Qingmang Mountain?" Chu Li said casually.
Xu Huande acted for a moment, then recovered and said calmly: "Don't talk nonsense."
Chu Li said: "Which guys did it?"
Xu Huande snorted: "What, you want revenge?"
Chu Li shook his head: "I just reminded Commander Xu to get them back quickly, lest they be dealt with by the Duke's Mansion... Don't underestimate the Duke's Mansion, their eyes and ears are everywhere, Tianlingyuan is also in charge of espionage, those two secretaries What Wei did cannot be hidden from the Duke’s government!”
Xu Huande glanced at him and said nothing.
Chu Li slowly closed his eyes and only punched without speaking.
The atmosphere in the small courtyard became dull.
After a while, Chu Li withdrew his fist: "Commander Xu, I want to practice in meditation, don't disturb me, and don't greet me while I'm eating!"
"Yes, I understand." Xu Huande replied lightly.
Chu Li clasped his fists and turned back to the east wing.
He lay down on his side on the couch, motionless, and quickly started to run the Ku Rong Sutra. His whole body was completely breathless, as if he had disappeared between heaven and earth.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Huande came to Chu Li's window as if nothing had happened. He paused and listened intently. He heard nothing and could not sense Chu Li's presence.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then gently opened the door and floated silently into Chu Li's bedroom.
Chu Li was lying on the couch on his side, his expression was peaceful and motionless, his breathing seemed to have stopped, his whole person was breathless, as if he was just a shadow in front of his eyes.
His dark face showed surprise.
He originally thought that Chu Li had sneaked out, but he didn't expect that he was really practicing martial arts. This martial arts was so strange. No wonder he didn't respond to calls for a long time. In this state, he seemed to be breathing like a turtle, and he was probably isolated from the outside world.
If I give him a slap, I might be able to kill him with one slap.
Thinking of this, I felt a little moved.
Later, he restrained this murderous intention, and Chu Li is now an indispensable figure in the Secret Mansion.
It is up to him to deal with the disciples of the Guangming Holy Cult. Otherwise, how could the commander and himself allow him to be so rampant? They would have let him know the power of the Secret Guard Mansion long ago!
He quietly exited the east wing and returned to his own room to meditate.
It's really embarrassing to be inferior to Chu Li in cultivation. Take this time to calm down and practice hard to surpass this guy!
Xiao Tieying and Xiao Baihe were talking in the hall, and the atmosphere was gloomy.
Six guards of the Duke's Mansion died, and all the guards retreated to the Duke's Mansion. This was a huge blow to the morale of the Duke's Mansion.
The guards felt depressed. They were killed for no apparent reason. The murderer could not be found, and they did not go to find the murderer. They just stayed in the house and let the murderer roam free!
If it weren't for the eldest son's extremely high prestige, everyone would have to obey an order even if they were dissatisfied. If it were the order given by someone else, they would have questioned it long ago.
Xiao Tieying was under tremendous pressure, and Xiao Baihe couldn't bear to see it.
"Brother, stop thinking so wildly. They are definitely here for your wedding. As long as the wedding is held smoothly, everyone will calm down!"
"It's my fault!" Xiao Tieying sighed: "I should have guessed that they would kill, and should have withdrawn them earlier!"
Xiao Baihe smiled: "Brother, why do you have such thoughts?!" (To be continued.)
