Plan, Bai Tianyu Goes Public, One Saber Suppresses Qingcheng City

Hearing his young lady's words, Xiao Lan's face showed disbelief.

"Young lady, did you see wrong?"

"Isn't that Su Chen at Yuchun Courtyard right now? How could he go to Qin Cui Mountain?"

"And his strength, even I can't deal with him, how could he kill Lei Yao with one saber strike."

The little maid asked three questions in a row.

"You're underestimating him. This guy is hiding very deeply. When I tested him earlier, he didn't notice at all."

"If he hadn't fought Lei Yao and used the Dusk Fine Rain Saber Technique, I wouldn't have realized it was him."

"He must be cooperating with Liu Wumei now to investigate the location of the Blood Demon Flower."

Shangguan Ziyun said in a deep voice.

"Liu Wumei's strength is in the late stage of Spirit Refining, close to the peak of Spirit Refining. Once she obtains the Blood Demon Flower, she might reach the peak of Spirit Refining in a short time."

"If that happens, she can leave Qingcheng City, return to Changhen Palace, and secure a good position within Changhen Palace."

"It seems she is a formidable rival for me in obtaining the Blood Demon Flower."

"However, it seems someone has set a trap for this Blood Demon Flower. I wonder if it was Qin Hao who set it up, or someone else?"

"You will spread this information through the black market overnight. I want people in or outside Qingcheng City to know about the Blood Demon Flower by tomorrow morning."

Shangguan Ziyun commanded.

"Yes, I'll go arrange it now!"

Xiao Lan replied and exited the room.

Inside the room, only Shangguan Ziyun remained. She looked out at the heavy rain and murmured, "Su Chen, perhaps the previous cooperation with Su Mengbai can be extended to you."

Outside Qingcheng City.

Inside a dilapidated temple.

Su Chen lay half-reclined on the dry grass, wrapped in his clothes.

He was deep in thought.

Bai Tianyu, as the sect master of the Divine Saber Sect in his previous life, led his sect.

With extraordinary talent, his strength in this world would undoubtedly increase rapidly. Keeping him as his bodyguard would hinder his progress.

Now that he had some ability to protect himself.

He was thinking of separating Bai Tianyu from him and expanding Bai Tianyu's fame in this world.

Bai Tianyu was currently standing behind Ling Tianhe.

Perhaps he could let Bai Tianyu take charge of the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower, with Ling Tianhe assisting him.

This way, the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower would still be under his control.

Moreover, once Bai Tianyu took charge of the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower.

The three major forces, Lei Hall, Canteen Hall, and Gathering of Sages Hall, could be taken down one after another.

Thinking of this.

Su Chen felt a surge of excitement.

However, how to bring Bai Tianyu into the open was a problem.

Bai Tianyu's background would need to be fabricated and then secretly spread.

A peerless saber master, living in seclusion and diligently practicing his saber techniques, owed Ling Tianhe a favor from years ago, so he emerged from the mountains to help Ling Tianhe.

Su Chen pondered this idea in his mind.

"When I get back, I'll have Ling Tianhe's side organize it and spread it quickly."

Su Chen thought to himself.

Making Bai Tianyu's identity public would also allow him to officially appear at the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower.

Of course, a whetstone was also needed.

Who would be the best whetstone?

It would be Lei Hall.

Lei Hall had planned to kill the master of the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower, and the evidence was conclusive.

His side could give the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower to Bai Tianyu as compensation for avenging him.

These ideas quickly flashed through Su Chen's mind.

Slowly taking shape.

"Tomorrow, I'll make Lei Hall disappear. Then Bai Tianyu will suppress Qingcheng City with one saber strike and become the overlord of Qingcheng City."

With the plan complete, Su Chen prepared to go to sleep.

There was an old man holding a pipe here, and he wanted to have some wonderful things happen.

It's impossible, so I can only sleep.

Not long after.

He fell asleep.

But it was tough for Bai Tianyu, who was hiding in the dark.

Seeing Su Chen resting, the old man with the dried tobacco pipe said, "This kid is really bold, to fall asleep just like that."

"Miss, it's hard for someone with no vigilance to survive in this martial world."

"He's not what you think!"

Liu Wumei shook her head.

The events in the valley today were still fresh in her memory.

Su Chen was definitely more than he appeared.

He looked a bit weak, but in reality, anyone who thought he was weak would probably have their head taken off, just like Lei Yao.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Just then.

Outside the dilapidated temple, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard.

Not just one horse, but several. Liu Wumei and the old man with the dried tobacco pipe tensed up.

A group of people galloping in the dead of night was not a good omen.

As the two exchanged glances.

A group of about ten people, dressed in straw capes and wearing bamboo hats, entered.

The leader was a burly man in his early thirties. He glanced at the old man with the dried tobacco pipe, then at the plainly dressed Liu Wumei, and finally his gaze fell on Su Chen.

Su Chen's face was hidden by his bamboo hat, making it impossible for him to see his features clearly.

The burly man frowned slightly but said nothing.

He said to the people behind him, "Rest for the night, and we'll leave tomorrow morning when the rain stops."

Hearing this voice, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes and removed his bamboo hat, revealing the group that had entered.

In fact, Su Chen had already woken up when he heard the sound of horses' hooves.

He was just too lazy to open his eyes and had taken off the bamboo hat from his face.

He looked at these people.

The men behind the burly man, upon receiving the order, quickly removed their straw capes, revealing official robes of brocade. They wore long swords at their waists and exuded an unusual aura.

"They're from the Northern Commandery of Lingnan Commandery?"

Liu Wumei's voice sounded in Su Chen's ear.

"The Northern Commandery? What are they doing here?"

A sense of doubt arose in Su Chen's heart.

The Commandery held an extraordinary status in the Great Zhou Dynasty, being one of the martial institutions responsible for suppressing the martial arts world.

These people sat down.

One of them borrowed some embers from the old man with the dried tobacco pipe.

They lit a fire elsewhere.

Some of them even produced roast duck and wine.

"Boss, why did the higher-ups order us to go to Qin Cui Mountain?"

A young man asked.

"Just follow orders. Don't ask questions you shouldn't."

The burly leader said coldly.

However, their words caused Liu Wumei and Su Chen to be startled.

Qin Cui Mountain.

They had just been there.

These people were going to Qin Cui Mountain. What was there? Perhaps only the Blood Demon Flower.

"Could the people from the Northern Commandery also be after the Blood Demon Flower?"

Su Chen thought to himself.

"Miss, are you coming from the direction of Qin Cui Mountain?"

Just then, a man beside the burly leader asked Liu Wumei.

The old man with the dried tobacco pipe was clearly the driver, and Su Chen was lying down, looking young. Although Liu Wumei was dressed plainly, her demeanor couldn't be hidden.

So the man directly asked Liu Wumei.

"We've been noticed!"

Liu Wumei's heart stirred.

But she nodded and said, "We indeed came from Qin Cui Mountain."

This route, at the fork ahead, could go in three directions, one of which led to Qin Cui Mountain.

Liu Wumei said this actually wanting to probe for some information from the other party.

"Judging by the sky, young lady, you came down from Qin Cui Mountain quite late. I've heard there's not much scenery there, and few people go." the man continued.

Hearing the man's words, Su Chen, who was half-lying down, had a thought: What do they want?

"Master, the smoke from their pile of firewood is poisonous."

Just then, Bai Tianyu's voice sounded in Su Chen's ear.

Hearing Bai Tianyu's words, Su Chen inwardly cursed: Late at night, a dilapidated temple, just as I expected, nothing good comes of it!

He then picked up the bamboo hat in his hand, covering his face, and took a Detoxification Pill.
