Murong Bo Saw the Light, the Final Grand Plan

Wang Yuyan still felt lingering fear when she mentioned this incident, and her pretty face turned deathly pale.

Xiao Yuanshan's fierce aura and domineering palm strikes seemed to reappear before my eyes.

Both Murong Bo and Xiao Yuanshan were top-tier martial arts masters of their time. Even though Wang Yuyan learned the Lingbo Weibu from Duan Yu, it wasn't long before she still couldn't escape Murong Bo's grabs and Xiao Yuanshan's attacks.

Wang Yuyan said with a mixture of gratitude and admiration.

"Thanks to Brother Xiao's great sense of justice, he refused to kill innocent people indiscriminately. When he saw that I was about to die at the hands of his father, he quickly stopped him. But in doing so, the old Murong Bo's scheme succeeded. They got a chance to catch their breath and took advantage of the infighting between the father and son to escape."

Wang Yuyan naturally admired Xiao Feng's self-control.

Xiao Feng had already reached the pinnacle of the martial arts world at the tender age of thirty, yet he was suddenly and brutally brought down. Who could know the extent of his fall from grace?

His life was so tragic and bizarre, with the mastermind behind it all right in front of him, the person who killed his mother right in front of him, yet he still suppressed his anger and hatred for the sake of Wang Yuyan, a relative of the Murong Family. How could one not admire him?

"When Uncle Xiao saw that Brother Xiao wouldn't let me be killed, the two of them got a little angry, but they didn't delay and continued to chase after me. I walked alone, not knowing where I was going. So I wandered aimlessly in the mountains and forests for several hours, not knowing which way was north or south, before I finally ran into the Four Great Retainers of the Murong Family and A'Zhu A'Bi."

"I didn't want to pay attention to them at the time, but I didn't know where to go on my own, so I could only wander around aimlessly with a group of people."

"When we encountered Murong Bo and Murong Fu again, Murong Bo was already seriously injured and on the verge of death, and it looked like he was about to die. Although he was about to die, he was still highly skilled in martial arts. He carried Murong Fu out of the woods and leaped out as if walking on flat ground."

"In the Apricot Forest, Feng Bo'e and Bao Butong hurriedly returned to Swallow's Dock. While trying to contact Murong Fu, they also quickly summoned the other two retainers. The group made a difficult decision: they asked a feng shui master to find another auspicious site. Jia Tuo, under the pretext of moving Murong Bo's grave and erecting a monument, dug up Murong Bo's grave, which turned out to be empty."

"They were both surprised and delighted. Upon seeing Murong Bo seriously injured, they naturally rushed to his aid, some tending to his wounds and others giving him water."

"Murong Fu only suffered minor injuries, but he was covered in dust, his hair was disheveled, and he looked quite disheveled. When he saw me, he came over again and, for the first time, said some kind words to me."

Wang Yuyan became increasingly clenched her teeth as she spoke, Duan Yu held her small hand tightly to comfort her.

"He first said that although Brother Xiao was a Khitan, he was indeed a chivalrous person. Murong Bo knew that throwing himself out would be safe and would buy time for everyone, and that all three of them could escape. Ha! I almost died at Uncle Xiao's hands, how could I be so easily fooled! He doesn't care about my life, so I can't be happy, but Murong Bo and the others are highly skilled in martial arts, so for the time being I can only pretend to remain silent."

"Murong Fu thought I was a little girl, easy to fool. Seeing that I didn't say anything, he assumed that I wasn't angry anymore. He continued to smear his father, saying that his father faked his death to escape, had been busy for half his life, and had long since gone mad. Now that his father had been seriously injured by Xiao Feng and was about to die, he hoped that I wouldn't make things difficult for a dead man."

"At this moment, Murong Bo actually took the initiative to scold himself, saying that he was crazy and was about to die. He said that people speak kindly when they are about to die and that his obsessions had been dissolved. He hoped that I could forgive him since he had not made a big mistake."

"I dared not say no. I could only keep my head down. It's also my fault for being too stupid before. If I hadn't gone through this, I would have been fooled again if they had said nice things to me."

Wang Yuyan looked at Duan Yu somewhat embarrassedly, then lowered her head again.

"But having faced life and death, who cares about me and who doesn't, what's there to not know? They've never been so humble to me before. Now that Murong Bo is deeply injured and on the verge of death, instead of thinking about healing his wounds and feeling sorrow in his heart, he's being so humble to me, a little girl. I felt something was wrong at that moment."

"But for some reason, Master Xiao and the others did not continue to pursue them. It wasn't until nightfall that Murong Bo was on the verge of death, so the Four Great Retainers guarded him while Murong Fu was summoned alone."

"I was more careful at the time. Fortunately, I had practiced the Lingbo Weibu a martial arts technique) beforehand. The Four Great Retainers were unable to detect my movements. Murong Bo and his son had other matters to discuss, so they naturally did not have the energy to pay attention to their surroundings. The only ones who noticed my movements at the time were A'Zhu and A'Bi, who had also practiced the Lingbo Weibu."

"However, when the three of us met, we just looked at each other without saying a word. A'Bi kept her head down and remained silent, while A'Zhu had a sad look on her face."

Wang Yuyan was somewhat puzzled.

The Four Great Retainers only treated Murong Fu as the emperor and disregarded everyone else. However, the two sisters, A'Zhu A'Bi, had a good relationship with Wang Yuyan, and the two sisters were also quite kind.

Wang Yuyan didn't understand what had happened between the two of them, and why they both seemed a little unhappy. Perhaps it was because their old master Murong Bo, was about to die.

"Since the two of them didn't expose me, I naturally just eavesdropped."

Wang Yuyan was trembling with anger, and Duan Yu had known about this for some time, was also indignant at this point.

"I never expected them to be so shameless! They started discussing that matter as soon as they escaped from Brother Xiao's clutches. The father and son were talking about how I had read so many martial arts manuals that I was practically a walking treasure trove of martial arts. But Xiao Feng and Xiao Yuanshan's martial arts were too high. Even if I had practiced top-tier martial arts like the Seventy-Two Ultimate Techniques Shaolin Arts, I would still be no match for them."

"Moreover, most people in the martial arts world already know about the Murong Family. It's impossible for Murong Fu to take revenge by practicing divine skills or to plan the restoration of his kingdom by being invincible in martial arts. That path is blocked, so he has to find another way."

"They could have used A'Zhu's and A'Bi's identities to become officials in the Dali Kingdom, secretly cultivate their power, eliminate their rivals, raise an army, seize the throne of the Dali Kingdom, and then launch a counterattack against the Central Plains."

"But when Murong Bo killed Ke Baisui and seized his wealth in Dali, he also saw what Dali looked like. It's not a big place, and the population is small. Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun are quite popular. This matter is difficult to succeed, and even if it succeeds, we won't be able to gather much strength. So we can only find a place with brave and skilled warriors to obtain enough troops."

"The Grand General of the Western Xia Yipintang just died in the Apricot Forest, and was interrogated about many military secrets before his death. This is a heavy blow to Western Xia. However, since Western Xia has established the First-Class Hall to collect martial arts knowledge from all over the world, it shows that they have great ambitions. Western Xia is located in the border region and is brave and good at fighting. Now that it is facing a crisis, it is Murong Fu's opportunity."

"Murong Fu only needs to capture me and send me to the Western Xia Yipintang, to be given to some high-ranking official as a concubine! I know a lot of martial arts and am beautiful, making me a priceless treasure to the people of Western Xia. Murong Fu will hold a position in the Western Xia Yipintang! With the skills that Murong Bo is going to pass on to him, it will be enough for Murong Fu to rank among the top in the Western Xia Yipintang, or even become the number one. Then, he can lead his men to attack Manduo Manor, kill everyone there, and since Manduo Manor has a lot of wealth and martial arts, once he gets these things, he can then use them to win people's hearts."

"By combining kindness and severity, we can easily control Yipintang. From Yipintang, we can extend our influence into the army and quickly gain a powerful force. At that time, by using A'Zhu A'Bi's identities, we can get Murong Fu to marry them and gain the support of Prince of Zhennan Duan Zhengchun. Duan Zhengchun is the next Dali Kingdom of Dali. With his support, Murong Fu can gain even greater power and influence in Western Xia."

Wang Yuyan hesitated, there were still a few words she didn't say, which were too infuriating and shameful for a woman like her.

However, Duan Yu knew all of these things.

Before their deaths, Murong Bo and his son discussed the matter. Murong Fu naturally knew that there was a Duan Yu who was deeply in love with Wang Yuyan. Murong Fu Duan Yu was also the only son of Prince of Zhennan Duan Zhengchun. Wang Yuyan Fu was very worried that if Wang Yuyan was given to the Western Xia people, she would hold a grudge. Wouldn't that lead to them becoming enemies and adding Dali another enemy?

"They Duan Yu me, Duan Yu! I am not as ruthless, heartless, and shameless as they are!"

Duan Yu, holding Wang Yuyan's hand, suddenly made a promise out of the blue.

Naturally, it was Murong Bo, before his death, advised Murong Fu not to worry.

Those in high positions should naturally have the rationality to make choices.

Once Duan Yu becomes the Duan Yu, what does a mere woman matter?

At worst, when Murong Fu holds a high position of power in the Western Xia Kingdom, he can kill the high-ranking officials he used to curry Duan Yu with, and then give Wang Yuyan to Duan Yu.

"Murong Bo also mentioned that the Tubo Imperial Advisor, Jiumozhi, was once his friend. This man is most fond of martial arts manuals. Once Murong Fu holds a high position and power in Western Xia, he can use some divine skills to bribe him and incite Tubo to launch a joint attack. With the combined strength of the three kingdoms, attacking the Great Song, the Liao Dynasty in the north will naturally not stand idly by. In this chaos, let Dali and Tubo take the lead, while they devour the Great Song's territory, secretly annexing Dali and Tubo. As for how much they can take, that depends on Murong Fu's own abilities. Murong Bo can only offer his advice up to this point."

"Then he transferred his internal energy to Murong Fu and died."

After listening to Wang Yuyan recount Murong Bo's plans before his death, Ji Boying couldn't help but nod in approval.

Although Murong Bo's idea was somewhat far-fetched, it must be said that this grand strategy did indeed have some merit.

This old man dedicated his entire life to restoring his country, yet he was doing some inexplicable things. Before he died, he actually had a breakthrough.

Given the current crisis facing Western Xia Yipintang, it would be far more feasible for Murong Fu to emerge from the crisis and scheme for the restoration of his country from within the government than for them to compete with a group of Delia in the martial arts world.

"I knew I was no match for them. I wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but I was afraid of being caught by them again. So I asked them if they knew where Brother Xiao was, hoping to find this savior. But A'Zhu and A'Bi didn't know. After hearing about Murong Bo and Murong Fu's scheme, they were also very sad and found it hard to accept."

"But when they were young, Murong Bo treated them extremely well, almost like daughters. They were all in a dilemma and didn't know what to do."

"I could only randomly choose a direction and take the opportunity to escape. The two of them covered for me, and we didn't run too far in the middle of the night. Murong Fu had received the power from Murong Bo, and his strength had greatly improved, and his Lightness Skill was also not weak. I was still caught up and captured by Murong Fu. Murong Fu knew that things had been exposed, he first tried to persuade me with kind words, hoping that I could help him, but I resolutely refused. He then tried to coerce and entice me, but I remained unmoved."

"When he saw that I was determined, he ignored me and just locked me up. He figured I was at his mercy and there was nothing I could do to resist."

"His skill had greatly improved, and he had gained some confidence, wanting to try to take revenge using martial arts again. So he wanted to go and seek revenge on Brother Xiao. Everyone naturally advised him not to act rashly, but he believed that the reason he couldn't beat Xiao Feng was because the father and son's skills were separated, and now that they were combined, they could definitely defeat Xiao Feng."

"As long as the Four Great Retainers deal with Xiao Feng's adoptive parents, they can naturally distract one of them. Then I can kill either Xiao Yuanshan or Xiao Feng, and then gather everyone's strength to surround and defeat the remaining one one by one."

"But everyone still tried to dissuade him. I knew that Murong Fu's martial arts were still no match for Master Xiao and the others. I wanted to provoke him into challenging them, but when he said he wanted to defeat them one by one and deal with Brother Xiao's adoptive parents first, I was afraid of making any mistakes, so I didn't dare to do so. I could only gently persuade him."

"With the others not cooperating, Murong Fu naturally couldn't fight two against one, so he had to give up for the time being and couldn't go to Brother Xiao to avenge himself, which made him very unhappy."

"Everyone just wanted to grab me as soon as possible and send me to Western Xia according to the plan Murong Bo set before his death. A'Zhu A'Bi were ultimately showing their affection. I also know their predicament. They all knew before that the Murong Family's restoration of the country was just a game. They just kept quiet and played along with the Murong Family's game."

"Now that their family has already killed so many people, they are secretly stirring up war and causing chaos, causing countless people to be scattered. Seeing their ruthlessness and ingratitude towards me, although I feel guilty for betraying Murong Fu, I still did it."

"With their help, I escaped again. They chased after me relentlessly, and I was almost caught again. Fortunately, Duan Lang searched for me everywhere in the mountains like a madman. At the critical moment, he rescued me."

"Using his unreliable Six Meridian Divine Sword, he temporarily Murong Fu to retreat, and then used his Lightness Skill to help me escape."
