Chapter 731 The tip of the knife wanders

As for what Lu Hongji's purpose was, Chu Xianping actually thought more clearly than Wei Changtian about this issue.

Especially after tonight, this guess becomes even closer to the truth.

The logic is very simple and can be deduced based on the following two conditions.

First, due to the original intention of establishing Kuilong, breaking through the shackles of the first rank is a fatal temptation for everyone in Kuilong, and Lu Hongji is no exception.

Secondly, Qin Zhengqiu has obviously practiced the Moon Sword to an extremely high level, but judging from the several times he appeared to take action, he was not affected by his inner demons, which undoubtedly shows that the side effects of the Moon Sword have been resolved.

Method.

From one plus two, it can be concluded that after Lu Hongji obtained the Moon-Challenging Sword Technique, his next goal must be to solve the inner demons.

As for how to get this method...

Obviously, the breakthrough lies either with Qin Zhengqiu himself or with Xu Suisui, who is loyal to him.

Today, both men are in Xinfeng.

That's why Lu Hongji tried his best to promote this great battle.

At the national level, this is an excellent opportunity to expand territory.

At his own level, once he obtains the method to break the inner demons, he can use the Moon Sword to break through to the first level, and at the same time, he can avoid the risk of inner demons.

From this point of view, unlike those Kuilong people who have desperately started practicing the Moon Sword, Lu Hongji is not only more ambitious, but also more able to keep his composure.

More importantly, he is now only one step away from success...

If the above were known to Wei Changtian, they might be able to answer many questions in his mind.

Why did Dajue not show the proper anger when he returned to the two countries after he "treacherously" withdrew from the war?

Why did Xin Feng obviously only have an isolated city of Fengyuan left, but when Qian returned to the two countries, he did not choose to continue to attack Shu to the west where it was easier to plunder the land, but instead wanted to fight with Xu Suisui here?

Why did they mobilize two million people and cause such a big battle, but Qian Huiguo made it clear twice that they could give up Daning and Shu as long as they offered the land to a new country?

Now that I think about it, the reason may be what Chu Xianping said——

The drunkard's intention is not to drink.

...

...

"Pah, pah, pah..."

The carriage galloped through the night, kicking up road dust.

When the moderate applause sounded, Chu Xianping knew that his guess was correct.

"Hahahaha! Brother Xianping is so thoughtful, I really admire you!"

"Yes! I am indeed here for the method to break the inner demon of the Moon-Chasing Sword!"

Holding hands and laughing, Lu Hongji's voice was loud and he laughed without hesitation: "What Brother Xianping just said is absolutely true. Power that cannot be controlled is not real power!"

"I don't want to become like a human being, neither a human nor a ghost, so I must get this method!"

"Brother Xianping, isn't this why you are following Wei Changtian?"

"..."

Very naturally, he changed the topic from himself to Chu Xianping, and Lu Hongji smiled even more.

However, Chu Xianping did not answer his question, and just asked calmly:

"Master Lu, since you are here to break the inner demons, then just ask Qin Zhengqiu and the new empress Feng to be kidnapped. Why go to all the trouble to start a war?"

"Aren't you afraid of long nights and lots of dreams?"

"Is this..."

Looking at Chu Xianping meaningfully, Lu Hongji chuckled and said, "Because I never do anything I'm not sure about."

"Send someone to kidnap him?"

"Brother Xianping said it is easy, but if you know that Qin Zhengqiu is here, will I be able to succeed?"

"Besides, even if the person is really kidnapped, will they definitely be willing to tell them?"

"Instead of alerting the enemy when the time comes, I might as well put in more effort and use the entire Xinfeng as a bargaining chip."

"Isn't that Xu Suisui the new empress?"

"Haha, I will have a good talk with her after I defeat Fengyuan."

"I want to see if she takes this method of breaking the inner demons more seriously, or whether she takes the lives of tens of millions of people more seriously..."

"..."

Using the entire Xinfeng as a bargaining chip, he coerced Xu Suisui into telling him how to break the inner demon of the Moon Sword.

Lu Hongji still had a smile on his face, but now this smile was creepy.

However, Chu Xianping didn't react much to this. He just nodded and said "I see" and said nothing more.

"Brother Xianping, I have said so much..."

Looking at the silent Chu Xianping, Lu Hongji suddenly smiled and asked: "Is it time for you to clear up the doubts in my heart, brother?"

"..."

Looking up and glancing at Lu Hongji, Chu Xianping replied calmly:

"no."

"I'm not here to break the inner demons."

"oh?"

Lu Hongji narrowed his eyes and asked: "Then why did Brother Xianping stay with Wei Changtian for so long?"

"Master Lu, you don't need to know about this."

Chu Xianping paused for a moment, then added: "It's just related to a senior of my class."

"Same disciple?"

Lu Hongji was stunned: "Brother Xianping, besides Kui Long, you also..."

"Yes, I am still from the White Palace."

Chu Xianping slowly straightened his sleeves and said slowly under Lu Hongji's doubtful eyes:

"Master Lu, you should have heard of Baidian."

"After all, you should know best how you got the Moon-picking Sword Manual in your hand."

"..."

...

The night was dark, the official road hidden by dense forests was dimly lit, and the dark clouds on the horizon were thick and oppressive.

When Chu Xianping finished his last words, the carriage fell into a deathly silence.

You know best how you got the Moon-picking Sword Manual...

If Wei Changtian is also in the car now, his current expression should be very exciting.

Because Chu Xianping's words undoubtedly showed that he was not the one who leaked the secrets of Lao Zhangtou and the Moon Sword to Lu Hongji.

But how is this possible?

There are only a few people who know the secret of the Moon Sword.

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As a "vested interest" in the Moon Sword, Qin Zhengqiu wishes that as few people as possible know this secret. How could he reveal it to his eight-pole brother?

The unbeatable Lu Hongji?

Moreover, Qin Zhengqiu was not in Shuzhou when Lao Zhang returned to the White Palace, and he didn’t know where the sword practice was hidden!

The same goes for Li Wutong, who was also in Fengyuan at the time and had no idea about Lao Zhangtou's departure.

Although Du Chang knew everything, he had taken the Puppet Pill.

So...it can’t be Agou, right???

None of the above four people had the motive or ability to "commit a crime", except Chu Xianping, but it turned out not to be him.

Thinking about it this way, it's a good thing that Wei Changtian didn't hear this conversation, otherwise his head would probably explode by now.

As for Lu Hongji, who may be the only one who knows the truth...

"Haha, brother Xianping..."

After a brief moment of shock, he suddenly smiled and asked playfully:

"Are you going to ask me next how I learned about the old man's whereabouts?"

"..."

"Master Lu, you are overthinking. I am not interested in knowing this."

Shaking his head, Chu Xianping's unruffled eyes made Lu Hongji frown slightly.

It was obvious that he was doubting Chu Xianping.

Or maybe this suspicion has always existed, but Lu Hongji just decided to test it out just now.

Staring into Chu Xianping's eyes, Lu Hongji still didn't notice anything strange.

If it were an ordinary person, he might have dispelled his doubts by now.

But since it is Chu Xianping, then...

"Brother Xianping, I suddenly remembered something else."

"I see that your aura is only at the sixth level. I guess you must have acquired the magical power of holding your breath and concentrating it."

"But I wonder what your true state is now? Can you let me see it?"

"..."

When their eyes met, Lu Hongji's eyes were no longer gentle, but slightly cold.

The conditions for Kui Long to select his followers are extremely strict, and having the talent to reach the second level is the most basic requirement.

And this also means that the realm of every Kuilong person will be far higher than that of his peers.

Therefore, Chu Xianping, who is only at the sixth level now, is undoubtedly "unqualified", which makes Lu Hongji want to try his "true and false"...

"Brother Xianping, what's wrong? But what's the problem?"

Staring at the silent Chu Xianping, Lu Hongji squinted his eyes and asked again.

I have to say that his test was very clever.

Everything can be fake, but the realm cannot be fake no matter what.

After all, I have only heard of techniques that can hide aura, but there is no magical power that can "exaggerate" aura.

What's more important is that I'm just asking you to show your true state. This request is not excessive and you have no reason to refuse.

It can be said that if Chu Xianping is really only at the sixth level, then his current situation is undoubtedly very dangerous.

But at this moment, he actually smiled.

"Haha, Captain Lu, do you doubt me?"

"..."

Frowning and staring at Chu Xianping, Lu Hongji felt uneasy and unhappy at the moment.

Both of these emotions came from the disdain in Chu Xianping's laughter.

how to say.

It feels like a beggar questioning whether a wealthy businessman is really rich, but the latter refuses to argue with him.

Although Lu Hongji was the helmsman of Kuilong and the Emperor of Great Hui at the same time and would not be easily fooled, his eyes changed slightly at this moment.

"Brother Xianping, where are you talking about?"

"How could I doubt you? I'm just curious."

"oh."

Chu Xianping nodded slightly, his tone even more disdainful.

"Master Lu, let's put it this way."

"Although you are of the second grade, if I fight you, I will kill you within five moves."

"Is it?"

Lu Hongji narrowed his eyes: "Why don't you and I give it a try now?"

"hehe......"

Looking up at Lu Hongji, Chu Xianping still smiled and said only two words.

"random."
