"That's not true..." Zhang Tingruo said thoughtfully.
"If the reason is legitimate enough, you can also take the initiative."
"Then let's use the competition as a reason to show off in front of the other sect?"
Looking at Wu Sili who looked excited, Zhang Tingruo shook his head.
"I'm afraid this won't work. It doesn't mean that the reason is not legitimate. We want them to offend us for two purposes. One is to destroy their prestige and let them know the reason why our sect can stand at the top of the hundred sects in the north.
The second is to give Brother Tiezhu and the others an opportunity to show up. If they take the initiative, the first goal can be achieved, but the second goal may be difficult..."
"That's true..."
Wu Sili said helplessly and had to sit down again.
"I have a way..."
Just heard a pleasant voice.
Everyone looked for the voice and found out it was little sister Si Qing.
"What do you think, Junior Sister Si?"
Si Qing smiled slightly, stood up and said.
"I can't talk about Gao Jian, but I think I can get Jiugu Sword Sect and others to take the initiative to attack..."
Wang Tiezhu nodded and signaled.
"Junior sister, please elaborate."
"The reason why these three sects, Jiu Gu Jian Sect, Fu Huashan, and Ningxiao Palace, dared to come to our sect to provoke us before was just because the second and fifth elders disappeared. It was obvious that they bullied the weak and feared the strong.
They haven't invaded for a long time now, presumably because Senior Brother has stabilized the situation and they can't find a point where they can show off, so if we want them to take the initiative to provoke, we must give them a chance!"
After hearing Si Qing's analysis, everyone's eyes lit up.
"That makes sense! Recently, the sect has indeed been running in an orderly manner under the management of Senior Brother. However, how can we create opportunities for them?"
Si Qing's two obsidian-like eyes flashed, and he immediately smiled.
"Of course we want them to see our vulnerability!"
"Vulnerability?"
Seeing that everyone still looked confused, she had no choice but to elaborate, "We just need to spread false news, saying that the Sword Sect disciples suffered heavy casualties when they encircled and suppressed a desolate monster in the Sword Lotus Mountains.
When they hear the news, they will rush to Jianzong non-stop, and then we can take advantage of the opportunity to take action!"
After hearing this, everyone showed expressions of sudden realization.
Zhao Kuchuan said with a smile: "That's true. What could be more embarrassing than having your leg bitten off by ants while cleaning your own home? I believe that as soon as those three sects hear the news, they will rush over to ridicule you!"
"Hahaha! That's right! According to the personalities of those three sects, it would be a pity not to come with such a good opportunity!"
After everyone discussed it, Si Qing's plan was finalized.
However, another problem arose.
So who should be the "unlucky guy"?
The status of this person should not be too low, so that he can earn enough gimmicks and make the irony more intense. It is best if he is somewhat famous, but not particularly famous.
After all, if Zhou Huaying led a group of disciples to surround and exterminate the monsters, no one would believe it.
Moreover, this person has to be found among them to prevent the news from leaking.
Wang Tiezhu's eyes swept around everyone present, and finally landed on Wu Sili's face.
"Sili, I leave this arduous organizational task to you!"
Wu Sili's eyes widened when he heard this, pointed at his nose and asked: "There are so many people, why is it me?"
"Look, Senior Brother Yan, Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Bai, and Senior Sister Gu are still 'missing persons', so it is impossible for them to take up this role, and you can't let girls go, right? So only you, Tingruo, and Axiang are qualified.
This request..."
"Then why not let Tingruo or Axiang go?"
"It's very simple!"
Wang Tiezhu smiled warmly and said: "Because among the three of you, you have the lowest cultivation level and the most outrageous temper. If this kind of thing really happens, you are the most likely one!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
As the latest disciple of the fifth elder of the Sword Sect, Wu Sili is also the owner of the earth-grade Thunder Spirit Root. He has enough gimmicks, and he is not very strong and has an assertive personality. He is indeed the best candidate for this "unlucky guy"!
"Si Li, for the sake of our sect, I can only aggrieve you!"
Zhang Tingruo suppressed his laughter and patted Wu Sili on the shoulder.
Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, Wu Sili lowered his head and had no choice but to accept this fact.
"Okay, okay, I'll go, but I'll explain it first! After this matter is over, you must help me clear my name, and don't let the outside world think that I, Wu Sili, am a useless person who overestimates my capabilities!"
"Of course, of course!"
Upon hearing his agreement, Wang Tiezhu quickly comforted him.
"When this matter is settled, I will take the initiative to refine a batch of earth-grade elixirs for you, which will make up for your mental loss!"
"That's pretty much it..."
Wu Sili snorted, and a smile appeared on his face again.
Next, everyone finalized some details of the plan, and told Zhou Huaying the plan when he came to deliver supplies.
After learning everyone's thoughts, Zhou Huaying's eyes also lit up.
To be honest, although he has a gentle nature, he is elegant and steady.
But it doesn't mean that he is a person without temper. He has deeply remembered the previous provocations from Jiugu Jianmen and other sects in his heart!
"Leave this matter to me! Just feel free to prepare for your appearance!"
After leaving these words, he left in a hurry.
Therefore, under Zhou Huaying's careful planning, a rumor that seemed both true and false spread in the southern part of the northern border.
…
In the southern part of Beiluoji Prefecture, the Nine Ancient Sword Gate.
Like the Litian Sword Sect, the sect headquarters of the Jiugu Sword Sect is also a mountain group with rich spiritual energy. However, compared with the Jianlian Mountains where the Sword Sect is located, it is too small and does not have the momentum of the Immortal Family Blessed Land.
.
Of course, this is compared with the Sword Lotus Mountains. If it were placed in the southern part of the northern border, it would be considered to have beautiful scenery and extraordinary weather.
Occupying the place with the richest aura in the south, the average level of the disciples of the Nine Ancient Sword Sect is also the highest in the south. Its leader, Xiao Wanshan, has been in the extreme wilderness for many years. It is said that he will break through the immortal barrier at any time and achieve the title of Immortal Lord.
.
Of course, this is just a rumor. As for how long he still needs to practice, perhaps only he himself knows.
But this does not prevent Jiugu Sword Sect from becoming the leading brother of many cultivation sects in the south.
In the southern part of the country where the influence of the Litian Sword Sect has not been too much, a situation has gradually formed in which the Jiugu Sword Sect is the most respected one. This also makes the sect leader Xiao Wanshan feel proud, thinking that he has the qualifications to challenge the Litian Sword Sect.
