Yuan Ming thought for a while and suppressed the doubts and curiosity in his heart.
Regardless of who is standing behind Pansi Island, at least they have the same interests in dealing with the Wuyue Sect. As for the rest, it is not the time to delve into it yet.
"The Senluo faction is expected to launch an attack in the next two days, and Ximen Rui and the others will definitely take action at that time. During the melee, it is the best time for the divine envoy to take action." Luo Spider said firmly.
"Yes, in that case, I will take action in secret when the time comes, but if possible, it would be best if Lord Luo Island helps me hold off the others for a moment." Yuan Ming nodded and agreed with Luo Spider's judgment.
.
"I just said that I will try my best." Luo Spider replied.
Yuan Ming didn't expect her to guarantee anything, so he didn't say anything more after hearing this. He cupped his hands and left with Xiao Fangcheng and Xi Ying.
But at this moment, Luo Spider suddenly made a sound.
"One more thing, I hope the envoy will remember that Wuyue Sect has discovered that Xing Rong is being manipulated. No matter what arrangements the envoy has, don't expect any help from Xing Rong. The future plans will also be based on
He's excluded."
"Does Lord Luo Island really mean what he said?" Yuan Ming asked with a shudder in his heart.
"The source of intelligence is very reliable, and for this kind of thing, it is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist. The Wuyue Sect itself is good at detecting the enemy's situation through lurking and brainwashing. It is normal to be prepared for this method. God's envoys must be sure to do so in the future.
Be careful." Luo Zi said, his voice was soft and soft, as if he was telling his sweetheart, which made people feel more fond of him.
But Yuan Ming always kept the spiritual platform clear and was not affected by her charming skills at all. Moreover, at this time, his attention was also focused on the information Luo Zhu said.
"Thank you Lord Luo for informing me, I will definitely be more careful." Yuan Ming thanked him with his hands.
Seeing this, Luo Zhu showed a look of disinterest, waved his hand, and watched Yuan Ming leave the City Lord's Mansion.
Yuan Ming had just returned to his feet, but before he had time to sit down and rest, Xiao Fangcheng's expression suddenly changed and he took out a palm-sized jade charm from the storage ring.
This is the communication weapon left behind by Xing Rong. Now there is a blue aura flashing on it, indicating that someone is trying to contact Xiao Fangcheng.
Yuan Ming did not hesitate and immediately asked Xiao Fangcheng to inject mana into the jade talisman.
"After a stick of incense, Yunhai Tower."
Xing Rong's voice quickly came from the jade talisman, and then the aura went out.
"What do you think?" Yuan Ming thought for a moment and looked at Xiying.
"It shouldn't be a trap. The current target of my father and the Senluo faction is Pansi Island. Even if what Luo Zhu said is true, they have already noticed that there is a problem with Xingrong. They will only use their tricks to destroy Pansi Island.
, it is impossible to take action easily." Xiying quickly made a judgment.
"Then let's stick to the original plan. Xiao Fangcheng, you will take the subpan there later and deliver it to the Senluo Sect." Yuan Ming nodded.
When Xiao Fangcheng designed the Zhuhaifang City Restriction Formation, he specifically designed the formation disk that controls this formation to be a mother and son disk. Both disks can control the Fang City Restriction Formation, but the mother disk has a higher level of authority and can
Seize control of the sub-disk at any time.
He designed this to ensure that Pansi Island could keep his promise and give 20% of Fangshi's income as a reward to Honglian Island. But until now, Pansi Island has not regretted the 20% of the income that belongs to him.
Therefore, this matter has always been kept as a secret in Xiao Fangcheng's heart.
However, after Yuan Ming made him into a tree puppet, he revealed all these secrets.
"No one else knows about the existence of the mother-child formation disk except us. Even if the Senluo sect discovers Xing Rong's betrayal, they will not find any flaws in the formation disk. Even if they abandon it, we will not lose anything." Yuan Ming touched it.
Touch your chin.
"Father is a cautious person. If he realizes that Xiao Fangcheng's line cannot be activated, he may change his original plan and not launch an attack in Zhuhaifang City." Xiying analyzed.
"It doesn't matter. Unless they leave directly, the initiative is always in our hands. Even if they don't attack tomorrow, I will attack Ximen Rui directly. I must cut off one of Wuyue Sect's arms in southern Xinjiang." Yuan Ming
said decisively.
Hearing this, Xiying stared at Yuan Ming for a long time, making him feel uncomfortable all over, and he could no longer maintain the serious look on his face.
"Jealous?" Xiying asked softly.
"A little."
Yuan Ming originally wanted to reject it, but looking at Xi Ying's cat-like sly gaze, when the words came to his lips, he somehow changed his mind.
"Hee." Xiying smiled, her eyes turned into crescent moons, and she seemed very satisfied with Yuan Ming's answer.
"Ahem, okay, let's not talk about this for now. Xiao Fangcheng, go to Yunhai Tower and wait for Xing Rong. If he is the only one here, ask him about the situation there. Remember, you have to make insinuations and don't treat him as a human being.
Our own people, expose our information." Yuan Ming's face became a little uneasy, he coughed twice and changed the subject.
Xiao Fangcheng took the order and left, but after two sticks of incense, he returned to resume his life.
"Xing Rong seems to be fine. Luo Yongqi still trusts him. He said that contacting me this time is also an order from Luo Yongqi, asking him to get the forbidden array plate as soon as possible. He may take action tomorrow." Xiao Fangcheng said.
Yuan Ming pondered for a moment and finally shook his head.
If Xing Rong had been discovered, given his strength, it was possible for him to be restrained without anyone noticing. This was also the reason why Yuan Ming did not go to meet Xing Rong.
Since Luo Zhu can see that Xing Rong is also his, then what she said cannot be without aim. Moreover, the two parties are currently in a cooperative state, and there is no need to deceive each other.
Fortunately, according to Yuan Ming's plan, Xing Rong is not the key point to break the situation, and the general strategy will not change for the time being.
Everything can only be seen tomorrow.
…
Early the next morning, the Senluo faction and Pansi Island began intense negotiations.
Although it is just a spiritual vein, there are many things to discuss, such as how to divide the sphere of influence specifically, who will guard it, whether the resources produced need to be distributed uniformly, etc.
The Danjie elders on both sides were at loggerheads, and in order to help the sect strive for benefits, they almost used all means except physical violence.
Unexpectedly, on Pansi Island, it was Xiao Yao who participated in the negotiations as the chief representative.
At the beginning of the negotiation, Yuan Ming, who was lying in wait, realized the intention of Pansi Island's choice.
In negotiations, the first thing to look at is the strength of both parties. Now that the Wuyue Sect is lurking in the dark, and the Senluo Sect and Pansi Island are equally powerful on the surface, there is naturally no difference in the right to speak between the two sides at the negotiation table. So what is next?
What matters is the negotiator’s own ability.
And Xiao Yao has two abilities that are very beneficial to negotiations - he can speak and he is shameless.
Everyone present is a pill-forming person, and behind him there is the Yuan Ying Ancestor who is sitting and watching. Although he fights hard, he still takes his own identity and face into consideration after all.
But Xiao Yao is different. Once the other party reveals any verbal flaw, he can immediately start a half-hour long speech around it. But if the other party catches his flaw, he will pretend to be deaf and say nothing.
Pretend you didn't hear it.
With his help, the negotiation situation quickly shifted to the side of Pansi Island, but the Senluo faction also quickly changed their strategy and insisted on sticking to a few bottom lines, even if some of them were absolutely unable to do so by Pansi Island.
Accept the conditions and refuse to let go.
After all this tossing, until the afternoon, the negotiations inevitably reached a dead end.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, is this the attitude of the Senluo sect in negotiating?" Luo Zhu glanced at Luo Yongqi, who was enjoying tea leisurely, and said with a gloomy expression.
Yuan Ming secretly glanced at Luo Zhu and felt that her performance was flawless. No one would be able to guess what she looked like. In fact, she already knew that this negotiation was just a cover for the Senluo sect.
"Our sect has its own bottom line, how can we abandon it at will in order to reach a reconciliation?" Luo Yongqi said slowly.
"Then what's the point of talking about it? Why don't you and I have a fight, and whoever wins will take possession of that spiritual vein!" Luo Spider seemed to be angry and laughed.
"This is what you said, fellow Taoist." Luo Yongqi seemed to have waited for what he wanted to hear, and immediately sneered. His right hand holding the tea cup shook, and in the next moment it turned into a scorpion tail that could stretch freely and stabbed Luo Spider.
.
Seeing this situation, Luo Zhu pretended to be shocked, but the movements of his hands were not slow at all.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Ming saw something seem to appear in front of Luo Spider, and the scorpion tail thrown out by Luo Yongqi also seemed to fall into the quagmire, slowing down rapidly and soon settling in mid-air.
Yuan Ming was a little surprised, and immediately scanned the void in front of Luo Spider with his spiritual consciousness. Only then did he realize that the void in front of her was filled with fine silk threads that could not be seen with the naked eye. It was these threads that bound Luo Yongqi's right arm.
The transformed scorpion tail stopped him.
"Fellow Daoist Luo's Thousand Thousand Threads is indeed well-deserved." Luo Yongqi praised, and his arm that turned into a scorpion tail turned into a white-haired ape arm surrounded by flames. With a slight squeeze of his fist, the flames followed the silk threads wrapped around his arms.
spread.
"Oh, stop talking nice words. You, Luo Yongqi, have been planning this day for a long time, right? Well, I have long heard about your method of grafting flowers and trees into one body, so I will let my little sister experience it today." Luo Zhu smiled teasingly.
As he stood, his expression was a little solemn. As soon as he moved the magic formula in his hand, the threads burned by the flames were disconnected one after another.
"I'm afraid I will disappoint fellow Taoist Luo, Xing Rong, take action!" Luo Yongqi's eyes flashed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Rong behind him immediately took out the array disk that Xiao Fangcheng had given him last night. He placed his finger on it, and countless light cyan lights suddenly appeared on the Fangshi array, and mysterious runes also appeared.
, condensed into hundreds of wind blades, and shot towards the Pansi Island group cultivators in Fang City.
"The Fenglin Volcano Formation that Fellow Daoist Xiao arranged for Guidao was fully activated for the first time and was used against yourselves. I wonder how Fellow Daoist Luo feels about it?" Luo Yongqi laughed, and his right arm returned to its original appearance.
