Wangyou Ghost Market, the top floor of Mingta Tower.
Qiao Ba, who was originally overlooking the entire ghost market with Qin Fan, was replaced by Xia Jinyu and Feng Mo.
The former looked at a blocked street with great interest, and the three figures among them looked particularly abrupt in such an empty scene.
The latter is comforting the tearful Xiao Feng.
"My lord, this Yun Hongce is very interesting. Would you like to meet him next?"
Qin Fan shook his head slightly.
"Don't worry, he needs some time to reposition himself and the Red Demon Kingdom."
"Reposition?" Xia Jinyu frowned slightly. When facing Yuan Suiyun at the beginning, Yun Hongce indeed set his attitude and position very high, but on the way back to the ghost market, this demon was already very cooperative.
But it can be seen from Qin Fan's words that such Yun Hongce did not meet his expectations.
"My lord, is the information he conveyed wrong? But it shouldn't be. Even though he is very smart, the Four Heavenly Kings are indeed a simple fool. I have been able to verify some information twice from him.
It’s impossible for this guy to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.”
Qin Fan chuckled and said:
"When did our Fourth Master Xia become so unconfident about himself? But if that dead figure can deceive you through disguise, then our ghost market should really admit defeat."
"So the problem does not arise with the late Shenying..." Xia Jinyu's brows furrowed even more tightly. He began to recall Yun Hongce's performance along the way, and then he realized something, "He is
Are you using yourself as bait?"
Qin Fan nodded.
"As the strategist of the Red Demon Kingdom, wouldn't he know that the existence of the Red Emperor is the biggest flaw in this country? And because of his status, or the bond of kindness, he will not forcibly control his actions.
So what he can do is take advantage of this and turn the disadvantage into an advantage.
This time, it seems that he was escorted to the ghost market as a prisoner, but the information told to you along the way can also be said that based on the current situation of the Red Demon Kingdom, he has placed himself as the biggest bargaining chip.
On the table.”
"I don't understand." The one who spoke was Feng Mo who had already coaxed Xiao Feng.
Xia Jinyu also looked at Qin Fan with a slightly puzzled look. He had figured out some of the key points, but there were also some problems that got him involved again.
Seeing this, Qin Fan explained:
"First of all, it is what Yun Hongce wants. He has noticed the subtlety of the situation in Kyushu, and through the actions of the top forces, he has deduced that his side lacks the most critical intelligence information, that is, intelligence involving Tianwai.
Therefore, if he wants to figure this out, he needs to choose a top force to join forces and get the information he wants from it.
Among today's top forces, the Daxuan Dynasty was the original master of Kyushu, and it also contributed to the sealing of the demons to the Demonic Region in the far west. This may involve some historical secrets from thousands of years ago, so it will not be considered.
Prince Wuwei's Mansion has too much time to take care of itself. With the death of King Wuwei, all the forces have gathered together, and it is even less possible to intervene in the chaos in Xixuanzhou Mansion now.
The Buddha Land and Chiluo Demon Kingdom had already reached their full hatred level, and the Dao domain sent Ning Daoqi and others to assist the Buddha Land, which also lacked opportunities for in-depth communication with them.
So after going around in a circle, he could only choose Wangyou Ghost Market.
Later, Fotu deliberately introduced the demonic tide into the southwest state capital, which gave him the opportunity to contact us.
But you should pay attention to this sequence. Yun Hongce had already targeted us as a cooperation target before the demonic tide poured into the southwest capital. Therefore, he must have done an in-depth investigation of the ghost market with a few days of free time.
In other words, among the top forces of all parties, the one he knows best is Wangyou Ghost Market."
Having said this, Xia Jinyu seemed to have some enlightenment.
"So before the demonic wave broke out, he made several plans, including a plan to strongly cooperate with our ghost city. Then there were also plans like now, where he misjudged the strength of the ghost city and took the initiative to enter the ghost market as a prisoner?"
"Prisoner?" Qin Fan shook his head slightly, "Do you think he looks like him? In other words, your attitude towards him, do you really treat him as a prisoner?"
"No." Xia Jinyu's expression gradually became serious, "Because the power structure of the Red Luo Demon Kingdom is somewhat deformed, and Yun Hongce is a rare talent.
Regardless of his personal value or his identity as the mastermind behind the Demon Kingdom, I feel that winning over him should be the top priority.
So even though he has devalued himself as a prisoner several times, I still have to show due respect.
More importantly, if we can get him to join the Ghost Market willingly, it will be enough to bring the overall strength of our Ghost Market to a higher level."
"Willingly." Qin Fan chuckled and said, "This word is used well. When did you have the illusion? I need someone to join the ghost market, and I must first let him surrender wholeheartedly."
"It's his character design." Xia Jinyu closed his eyes with a headache, "To that Red Emperor, he can be loyal for a favor, so such a great talent deserves our courtesy."
Feng Mo was a little confused when he heard this. He felt like he had become the second shadow of the dead god.
"Isn't this wrong?"
"Yes, that's right, but he is a prisoner of the ghost market." Xia Jinyu has fully realized the influence that the other party has unknowingly exerted on him. "But as we realize its value, or he takes the initiative to expose
After revealing its own particularity.
It becomes that I, the ghost market, is seeking him. Faced with such a great talent, especially an affectionate person who is willing to repay kindness and revenge, we will subconsciously rule out the toughest methods and use them against him.
Convenience, including the respect that the Lord will give it due.
It stands to reason that with his talent, it is indeed worth what we do.
But don’t forget his original purpose, what he needs first is information about the outer world.”
Feng Mo looked at Qin Fan half-understanding.
Qin Fan smiled and said:
"To use an analogy, after Yun Hongce realized that the strength of the ghost market exceeded his expectations, he packaged himself into a peerless beauty with a wealth of wealth, white skin and beauty. Being able to marry this woman is enough to make me miss him.
Struggle for a hundred years.
And I mentioned before that he has already targeted the ghost market, which means that he, the hunter who seems to be his prey, has some information about me.
For example, the cooperation with Zhishan can eliminate the innate dislike of the entire demon clan. Another example is the subsequent joining of Liu Yao and Yuan Shisanqian in the ghost market. It can be concluded that I am a monarch who is willing to recruit talents...
When these prerequisites were met, he showed a side of love and justice, which allowed me to directly avoid taking strong measures in pursuing him.
So if you want to get such a woman with excellent conditions in all aspects and extremely high intelligence, some push-and-pull tactics will obviously be easily seen through by her, so what is left is only sincerity and sincerity.
And that's what he took advantage of.
According to my guess, he will be non-active, non-rejecting, and irresponsible in the future, which makes me feel that I am only one step away from recruiting him, but this step will be like a cliff in the sky.
At the same time, during this process, he will get many conveniences, such as some information, and for example, using the power of the ghost market to strengthen the Chiluo Demon Kingdom. Of course, as a qualified scumbag, he will also give me some benefits.
For example, when targeting other forces, provide some plans and plans.
This will give me the illusion that he will bring the entire Akura Demon Kingdom to join the ghost market in the next second.
And with the help of the big tree of the Ghost Market, the entire Red Demonic Kingdom has quietly integrated into the world of mountains and seas, and began to quietly accumulate strength, waiting for the opportunity to stand on its own feet."
"So this is a disguised alliance?" Feng Mo felt like everyone was dumbfounded.
Xia Jinyu shook his head and said:
"Although it is true to call it an alliance, in the process, we will completely lose our dominance. Once we take this passive position, we will become a shield for the Akara Demon Kingdom.
Of course, just like the Lord's metaphor, Military Advisor Yun will properly show his shining points, and in the early stages of the alliance, he will spare no effort to help Guoshi get some considerable benefits.
Only in this way can he fully demonstrate his advantages and make us become more and more obsessed with him.
What he can't get is the best, and he will keep this distance until he finds another stronger tree, or until it grows into a canopy that can cover the entire ghost market, and then abandons the ghost market.
.”
"Then what should we do?" Feng Mo faced this kind of scumbag for the first time, and he suddenly felt at a loss.
Qin Fan smiled lightly and said:
"We should take advantage of it, but the rhythm of push and pull must be in our hands, and this is a conspiracy. We cannot fall out with it just because of some speculation, and it is not like this.
After all, if you really think about it, there is no deep hatred between us and the Red Demon Kingdom.
Of course the most important thing is that I am really interested in him."
"Perhaps we can arrange a plan and give the Red Emperor..." Feng Mo made a throat-cutting gesture.
Before Qin Fan could speak, Xia Jinyu stopped him and said:
"If we really do this, the first target he suspects will be us. With the character he has established, it is even more impossible to join the ghost market. In fact, after all, this is also a gold medal he set for the Red Emperor to avoid death.
.
But now I doubt whether the real Yun Hongce is as focused on so-called kindness as he appears to be."
"To see whether a person is disguising, it's easiest to start with the people around him. The previous Chi Yan Ming and the current Shen Shen Ying, just by looking at their subconscious attitudes towards Yun Hongce, you can tell that this person has seven tricks.
Probability is its nature.
Then the remaining 30% is not important. After all, if a person can pretend to be a gentleman for a lifetime, then he is an out-and-out gentleman.
At the same time, this is also a weakness or a handle that he actively handed to us.
With such a highly resourceful person, coupled with a cold-blooded and ruthless character, who can rest assured of his existence? On the contrary, it seems more manageable if paired with an affectionate nature."
Qin Fan doesn't care whether Yun Hongce is disguised or not, because if his nature is completely opposite to his performance, when it is exposed, the first one to collapse will be the Red Luo Demon Kingdom that he relies on.
And he also discovered that Yun Hongce's acting style is that he is very good at using his own flaws or weaknesses to make plans, silently turning weakness into strength, and turning passivity into initiative.
Because of the flaw of the Red Emperor, Yun Hongce's own value was enhanced, and because of Yun Hongce's affectionate character, he avoided Qin Fan's use of some tough and sideways methods.
After all, in the absence of deep hatred, facing such a demon, being too rough will only force it to the opposite side, or completely destroy it, and it is obvious that the value of a living Yun Hongce is far more important.
The dead Yun Hongce.
"Pity."
Qin Fan let out an inexplicable sigh.
Feng Mo and Xia Jinyu looked at each other with confusion.
Qin Fan did not give an explanation. With the two fingers of his right hand, Jiu Ge, who had completely suppressed the deceased god's shadow, once again turned into a rainbow light and disappeared into the street.
Qin Fan also looked at Xia Jinyu with an increasingly solemn expression.
"Yun Hongce's matter has come to an end for the time being. Regarding the information from the Chiluo Demon Kingdom, the Red Pink Skull Tower and Ye Mansion have been infiltrated. The most important thing below is the conversation between you and the big shopkeeper."
Xia Jinyu nodded. Compared with Yun Hongce and the entire Chiluo Demon Kingdom, the real enemies that he had to face in the ghost city were the eager plunderers from outside the world.
After confirming the value of the mountain and sea realm, this confrontation has become inevitable.
Even if the ghost market is placed on those external forces, we will not lower ourselves to negotiate with some ants.
This is a perfectly normal law of the dark forest.
Xia Jinyu can understand it, and so can Qin Fan, but if they are placed on the weaker side, this emotion of recognition will have no value at all.
Noticing that the atmosphere at the scene was much more solemn, Xiaofeng, who was originally confused, also showed a serious expression.
------------------
the other side.
Watching Jiu Ge go away, Shen Shenying stood up with lingering fear. He no longer yelled arrogantly, but looked at Yun Hongce with some fear.
He couldn't understand how he could be suppressed by a sword so easily. As one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Red Demon Kingdom, his strength could even touch that of the Red Emperor. However, he was on the absolutely weak side, which he had not experienced for a long time.
.
But what worries him even more is that Yun Hongce, who always had a slightly naughty smile and his eyes were always full of confidence, began to anxiously draw circles around the small silver corner of his forehead with his fingers.
This uneasy feeling soon affected Shen Shenying, and he didn't even dare to take a breath.
Until he saw Yun Hongce take a deep breath, his clear pupils filled with deep interest and expectation.
"Master Military Advisor?"
"Huh~" Yun Hongce exhaled the turbid air in his mouth for a long time, and the smile he raised was as pure as Shen Shenying had ever seen before, "Don't worry, this is probably the first time I really speak from my heart.
I feel in my heart that I will lose to one person."
"Master Military Advisor lost?" Shen Shenying didn't understand.
Yun Hongce didn't explain, he just smiled and said:
"Although we haven't met yet, we did lose. I'm afraid some of my little thoughts have been seen through, otherwise I wouldn't have let you put me in such an embarrassing situation."
"Are you embarrassed..." Shen Shenying looked at himself covered in dust and felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't understand why Yun Hongce, who was spotless all over, looked embarrassed.
Yun Hongce did not give any more answers, but looked at Wu Ming.
"Mr. Wu, please lead the way. We won't cause you any more trouble."
