"Elder He's words are wrong? How could Elder Dai be with us?"
"Isn't Elder Dai back? He should have returned to Wuwei City with the rescued hostages last week!"
Sha Jinwu and Master Mo Lian in the Wanglou Martial Arena spoke one after another. At this moment, they were both very confused by He Qinghai's words.
From their point of view, Lao Dai and his party should have brought the hostages back to Wuwei City...
To everyone's surprise, He Qinghai looked even more confused than them and asked: "What are you talking about? What are the rescued hostages? Aren't the hostages still in the hands of evil gangsters?"
As soon as He Qinghai said these words, everyone present realized the problem.
Sun BuTong and other young warriors from the martial arts league, as well as masters from the Wanglou martial arts arena, subconsciously believed that the hostages had already returned to Wuwei City.
On the other hand, He Qinghai, Qiu Zhenxi and others thought that the hostages were still in the hands of the Spirit Snake Palace disciples.
Yesterday, Sun BuTong and Qiu Zhiping returned home from their jobs. Their fathers, Sun Fangjin and Qiu Zhenxi, both talked to them and asked them about some things.
However, Sun Tongtong was dissatisfied with the retreat. He always thought that he could succeed, but it was the old gangsters in the Wanglou Fighting Arena who relied on their elders and betrayed them, hindering his plan to encircle and suppress the evil sect.
Therefore, Sun Fangjin came to talk to him. Sun Butong spent most of his time complaining about the masters of the Wanglou Martial Arts Arena, saying that they were greedy for life and afraid of death, and were afraid of the vicious methods of the evil sect.
Sun BuTong focused on describing the process of chasing down the evil sect, detailing how despicable the evil sect was, using hostages to set up traps and causing them to throw traps, which ultimately had no good consequences.
The content of the conversation between Qiu Zhiping and Qiu Zhenxi was also very similar. They focused on describing how Hengyu was despicable and shameless and used dehumanizing means to deal with the righteous way during their pursuit of the evil sect.
The only difference between Qiu Zhiping and Sun BuTong is that Qiu Zhiping complained with a dejected expression like a beaten rooster, while Sun BuTong was headstrong and did not listen to the advice of his elders at all.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, the seniors of Wanglou Martial Arts Arena finally objected to continuing to pursue the evil sect and led everyone back to Wuwei City.
Because Sun BuTong was angry and Qiu Zhiping was depressed, Sun Fangjin and Qiu Zhenxi could only let them calm down and rest before discussing in detail today.
To sum up, it was only at this moment that the people gathered in the hall discovered that both parties' understanding of the entire situation was on an 'incorrect' track.
Now only Zhou Xingyun and his party can see the entire trend clearly and understand that the situation has fallen into a very serious situation.
The Wulin Alliance's rescue of the hostages should have been a relatively peaceful incident.
The reason why Zhou Xingyun and his party stood by and did not bother to intervene in the martial arts alliance to save people and allowed Sun Butong and others to make a fuss was precisely because in Zhou Xingyun's view, this should not have turned into a major incident.
To put it bluntly, it is not a big deal that evil warriors kidnapped a group of righteous people at a martial arts conference.
To be sure, the harm caused by evil warriors to the righteous people listed in the martial arts conference is not great, but it is extremely insulting.
The new senior leaders of the Wulin League did not even take this matter seriously at first.
The Wulin Alliance pays more attention to publicizing the new ten elders and announcing the results of the Wulin Conference to the world. From this point alone, it should be clear that the Wulin Alliance really does not take the kidnapping matter seriously.
Why does Zhou Xingyun also think that this incident should have been a relatively peaceful one?
There are three main reasons.
First, although the evil sect took hundreds of hostages, no one died.
The second point is that as long as the righteous sect provides corresponding living expenses, the evil sect promises to take good care of the hostages and will not harm them.
The third point is that the righteous people who were captured were all... dandies from Jianghu sects.
Of course, from Zhou Xingyun's perspective, he can give more reasons.
For example, Zhou Xingyun had long known that Hengyu and others were unwilling to fight with Zhengdao, so they accepted the meeting and found a suitable time to release the hostages.
It's just that this time and that time...
The Wulin League's rescue of the hostages should have been a relatively peaceful incident. After all, Hengyu and the others had no intention of fighting to the death with the Wulin League. As long as the Wulin League handles the matter properly, they can rescue the hostages intact without spending a single soldier.
Although the righteous sect will suffer some financial losses, the best result is that people can come back safely.
To put it bluntly, the evil way took hostages in the martial arts conference. From this moment on, the best result for the right way sect is to lose money and eliminate disaster.
Is it shameful to spend money to eliminate disasters? There is no shame in spending money to eliminate disasters! To be honest, Zhou Xingyun, not only is there no shame, the Wulin Alliance can even win a good reputation! Because they will become famous in the world as winners!
The new official took office with three things in mind. As soon as the new martial arts alliance was established, he gave the evil alliance a blow with the hammer of justice and defeated the plan of the evil warriors!
From the overall perspective, this is a 'temporary' win-win situation. The evil warriors gain financial benefits, while the righteous warriors gain prestige and reputation.
Why emphasize the word ‘temporary’?
Because the road has to be walked step by step, and things have to be done one by one. The Wulin Alliance's spending money to eliminate disasters is only the first step, and then rescue the hostages first.
As long as the hostages are rescued, the righteous sect won't have to resort to deadly weapons to get things done.
After ensuring the safety of the hostages, the Wulin Alliance will make long-term plans and think about how to get the lost money back from the evil hands. This is a steady and steady approach.
Hengyu and others are not vegetarians. The Wulin Alliance wants to solve all problems in one step. Do they really treat their enemies as fools?
Therefore, according to Zhou Xingyun's understanding of the entire incident, as long as the Wulin Alliance handles it properly, they can rescue all the hostages without spending a single soldier.
Unfortunately, the new Wulin League's handling of crises is so bad that it could kill people.
From the beginning to the end, He Qinghai and others did not take Spirit Snake Palace seriously.
The escorts of the Wulin Alliance suffered a loss and did not have a long memory. They asked two young boys, Sun Tongtong and Qiu Zhiping, to lead the team to find trouble for Hengyu and Xuanyang Tianzun.
Now a big incident has occurred. Not only have more than forty people died, but even the hostages that the Wulin League must rescue have disappeared inexplicably. Now that people and money have been lost, how should the Wulin League end?
To put it bluntly, what was originally a relatively peaceful incident has turned into a very dangerous situation due to a series of awesome decisions made by the Wulin Alliance.
In Zhou Xingyun's words from the bottom of his heart, today's Wulin Alliance has no way out.
To be sure, it was He Qinghai, Sun Butong and others who went crazy and thoughtlessly. After the operation, they forced themselves into a desperate situation.
Zhou Xingyun and his party were aware of the seriousness of the matter when they were in the restaurant yesterday. At this time, it depends on whether He Qinghai and the Jianghu warriors can handle it properly after learning the true situation.
"About seven days ago, on the night we raided the evil sect camp, we had rescued all the righteous people who were under house arrest in the camp. They should have returned to Wuwei City long ago!" Master Mo Lian and all the masters in the watchtower martial arts arena all looked very ugly.
.
"No! They haven't come back! We have been in Wuwei City. If they come back, we will definitely know!" Sun Fangjin's heart tightened. He seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem, but due to the huge information gap, his thoughts were confused.
I couldn't figure it out clearly for a while.
Admittedly, even if Sun Fangjin couldn't figure it out clearly, but based on what Sun Butong said to him yesterday, he vaguely realized that this matter might be terrible!
"But when we broke into the evil camp, we did rescue them! Then Elder Dai from the Botong Martial Arts School was responsible for leading the team to escort them back to the city." Bi Haitian, a master of the Climbing Immortal Tower, briefly described the situation that night.
"No. Your statements are very contradictory." He Qinghai asked very puzzledly: "Since you rescued the hostages, why did you sacrifice so many people!"
He Qinghai's mind didn't turn around for a while. He really couldn't understand that the Wulin Alliance attacked the evil camp at night and won a great victory to rescue the hostages.
Since all the hostages were rescued, why did so many people die afterwards?
"About this matter, Elder He should not ask us. You should ask Nephew Sun in the First Palace. He is the leader of the team. He is the one who ordered the encirclement and suppression of the evil sects in the camp and the pursuit of the retreating evil sects."
"You mean that the encirclement, suppression and pursuit of the evil sect happened after the hostages were rescued? It's not that the evil sect retreated with the hostages and you had no choice but to chase after them?"
He Qinghai understood it wrong from the beginning, because he sincerely felt that the Wulin League's first priority was to rescue the hostages. If Sun Butong and others succeeded in rescuing the hostages, they should quickly evacuate the evil camp to avoid unnecessary struggles and casualties.
The reason why Sun Butong and others pursued the evil sect was because the evil warriors had taken hostages and retreated, so they had no choice but to pursue them. Admittedly, this was just He Qinghai's wishful thinking...
"To be honest, when we rescued the hostages, the evil warriors hardly hindered us. They seemed not to want to fight with us. Even if we fought in the evil camp, they gave in step by step, and finally abandoned the camp and fled. We were destroyed, and in the blink of an eye
Captured the evil camp."
"In that case, why didn't you escort the hostages back to the city, but went after the evil sect?" Qiu Zhenxi was deeply surprised, because when things developed to this point, the Wulin Alliance could be said to have won a great victory.
Sun Tongtong and his party escaped unscathed, defeated the evil masters, successfully rescued the hostages, and occupied the evil camp. This was clearly Tianhu's start!
Qiu Zhenxi and others really couldn't imagine how Tianhu's beginning ended in such a tragic ending.
"Didn't we say it? You have to ask Nephew Sun, it was he who insisted on going his own way and gave the order to hunt down and kill the disciples of the Spirit Snake Palace." Sha Jinwu from the Wanglou Martial Arena solemnly emphasized the four words 'willing on his own'.
"The disciples of the Wuteng Spirit Snake Palace are all evil villains. They are the despicable people who bring harm to the martial arts world! It is our duty to eliminate harm for the people!" Sun Tongtong replied confidently: "They were defeated like a mountain. I order everyone.
Why not take advantage of the victory and pursue it!"
"When the evil warriors retreated, you ordered everyone to pursue them. There was really nothing wrong with you at that time. However, you should not be impulsive. When you sensed that something was wrong, you persisted in pursuing and killing the evil warriors despite our objections!" Cai Qianxia from the martial arts arena.
