What is important to Zhang Yan is not Haoxuemen or Dahongtian, but having an opening in the Pastoral Sect.
Only when you have an opening can you collect the gold foil from the Pastoral Sect and reshape the four killing swords in your hand. Otherwise, the gold foil in the Pastoral Sect will never be collected, and the complete reshaping of the killing sword may be far away.
At present, Zhang Yan really can't sit idly by and ignore the troubles in Haoxuemen. The twists and turns inside are not just as simple as "if there is no hole, open another one".
If Haoxuemen is left alone this time, it will be impossible to have a reliable ally in the Pastoral Sect in the future. Learning from the past, no one is a fool.
But this time the Haoxuemen's trouble is actually a rare opportunity for Zhang Yan. After all, in the past, the Haoxuemen could only collect the gold foil secretly, and the situation could not be opened up, which was far less than the speed of gathering in the Chaos Sect.
.This is determined by Haoxuemen's status in the Pastoral Sect. If you want to open up the situation, it will be difficult to rely on Haoxuemen alone. But this time, if it is used well, it is likely to completely change the situation.
Therefore, when faced with Haoxuemen's request for help, Zhang Yan did not consider "whether to help or not" but how to help in the best interest of himself.
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Yan returned a jade sword to Haoxue Sect and gave him his own strategy. It depends on how Haoxue Sect responds.
The jade sword broke through the space, and in just a few days it reached the hands of Li Yan, the Haoxue Sect, who was far away in the Pastoral Sect area.
After reading the content on the jade sword, Li Yan's expression first fell into thinking, and then gradually frowned as if he was a little more angry. But the decision involved was not something she could have the final say on, so she thought about it for a while and then gave it up.
He got up and quickly presented the things to Xue E, the sect leader.
Like Li Yan, Xue E frowned after reading the content on the jade sword, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes. However, the anger did not stay for long, and disappeared after a while, leaving only a little helplessness.
.
"It seems that in the eyes of Duoyashan, our Haoxue Sect will be used as an opportunity to make profits for them. From now on, our position in the Pastoral Sect will be subtle and unpredictable."
Do you regret it? Xue E doesn’t think there is anything to regret. From the first day when the Dahongtian Alliance was established, Haoxuemen has never regarded living in an ignoble life as the keynote of its existence, and has always held back its energy.
I am trying to climb up. It is not a wrong decision to use the opportunity of the great world to overthrow the "Yuhao Great World Alliance", and using the power of the cliff mountain to achieve the goal can be said to have minimized the losses.
As for the subsequent changes, they were not part of the calculation. Haoxuemen had no way of predicting them.
Fortunately among the misfortunes now, Qingshan Wonderland is still obsessed with getting the inheritance of the great world, otherwise Haoxue Sect would have been crushed at this moment.
It's a pity that Duoyashan, who was quick to help last time, did not continue to do so this time. Maybe it was because the opponent was different, so he had other considerations. But judging from the news on this jade sword, there are more things mixed in it.
A different kind of scheming.
Li Yan understood what Xue E meant, sighed in his heart, and followed Xue E's words and echoed: "According to Duoyashan's intention, they are willing to participate in the interview with the three forces. They are also willing to pull strings from them to bring us Hao.
Xuemen serves as an opening in the Pastoral Sect set up by their cliff mountain to negotiate deals with the three forces. This is equivalent to forcing us to take sides. By then, we will lose everything we have managed before in the Pastoral Sect. What will the situation be like?
It’s really unpredictable.”
Now it's almost the last minute to take off your clothes and reveal your underwear.
Jade Sword's words in Duoyashan's words were as gentle and euphemistic as ever, just like polite suggestions between friends. But in fact, these suggestions did not leave any room for Haoxue Sect to choose, and they did not even have the qualifications to bargain. As long as they did not want to be annoyed in the end.
If the forces of all parties are overwhelmed, they must accept Duoyashan's "suggestion".
"Gather all the elders and core disciples together. This matter needs to be reported to everyone." Xue E did not hesitate for too long. He knew very well that he had no choice anyway, so he accepted it. Then he would listen to everyone's thoughts and see.
Can we find some loopholes that we can exploit and maneuver from the new situation we have to face?
This discussion lasted for one day and one night.
In the end, after Haoxuemen made some analysis, even Xue E was no longer as helpless as he was at the beginning. Because although Duoyashan's suggestion directly ruined Haoxuemen's ambitions and efforts, looking at it from another angle, it became
As the only force in the pastoral sect that has established contact with the cliff mountain and has been designated as its mouthpiece, while losing something, it will also gain something new.
So it’s really hard to make an immediate conclusion as to which one is better or worse.
After Haoxuemen ended their internal deliberations, they responded to Duoyashan, and at the same time, three invitations were personally delivered by the three elders of Haoxuemen to three top powers who had already contacted Haoxuemen.
The invitation details the time and place, inviting three top powers to gather at Haoxuemen in two months to discuss the specific details of various secret transactions in the great world.
The invitations have been sent out, and the attitude is irreversible. Now the ball is at the feet of Qingshan Wonderland and the other three top powers. Haoxuemen is going to make a desperate move, how should they deal with it?
That is to say, at the same time that the three Haoxuemen elders left Dahongtian with their invitations, the invitations with the same content were passed back by the informants of Qingshan Wonderland, and they immediately reached the hands of Lin Xiao, the master of Qingshan Wonderland.
After the previous mistake of letting Haoxuemen complicate things due to contempt, Qingshan Wonderland’s surveillance of Haoxuemen has almost no omissions anymore. Except for those words that are transmitted through the sound, which are difficult to understand, the rest is all right.
Regardless of the size, they will be sent back to the dispatch center and reported to Lin Xiao.
"Are the invitations on the way? It seems that Xue E of Haoxuemen must have received a guarantee from a certain party. Otherwise, he had been hesitating for so long and would not have suddenly made up his mind. You said that the guarantee he received was
Who gave it to him?"
After reading the first-hand jade slip information, Lin Xiao handed it to the elders below for circulation, and at the same time took a sip of the tea at hand.
After a while, after being circulated, one of the elders said: "Yunlan Territory, Qingxitian and Guishicheng. The one with the worst relationship with us is Guishicheng, and only Guishicheng has the possibility of breaking up with us at any time.
Therefore, I believe that it was Guishicheng who made some promise to Xue E that emboldened him."
The other elders also agreed.
However, one elder had a different opinion: "Sect Leader, although Gui Shicheng has the confidence and possibility to break up with us, do they have the need to break up with us for Haoxue Sect?"
