The five people seated around the table each sipped from their cups of sake. After introducing themselves, Leng Gucun took a seat with ease.
"I don't deny it," Ying Wuyi paused, his words dripping with insincerity.
A chuckle escaped Leng Gucun's lips, his demeanor and speech so composed that no one could find fault. Yet it was this very demeanor that made Ying Wuyi feel he was being disingenuous.
With sake worth ten thousand coins and delicacies worth countless more, it was hard to believe that Ping Hong had never shared a drink with Leng Gucun. What could be the reason?
Gu Ping gently picked a grape from the plate and chewed it thoughtfully, choosing not to answer Leng Gucun's question. Instead, he turned to Ying Wuyi and asked, "Which faction do you think has the best chance of unifying Tiandong during this turbulent time?"
"Surely not the Great Qin Ying Clan," Gu Shidi interjected. "You shouldn't be asking Ying about that."
"What do you think, Cold Friend?"
At this moment, as the winds of change swept through Tiandong, the situation was as volatile as ever. Some factions were rising only to fall; others appeared strong but were weak at their core; while some academies were decaying from within. If one were to ask Leng Gucun which faction had the best chance of seizing this opportunity to unify Tiandong, it would likely point towards the Jade Void Sect and the Great Jin Yang Family. But did that young man offering wine truly seek an answer?
Leng Gucun hadn’t forgotten that this was Cheng Zong’s territory. "I don't deny it," he thought of the Moon River Sect, and even less so of Feiyuxuzong's domain.
After some contemplation, Leng Gucun unexpectedly uttered a statement that left Ying Wuyi in stunned silence: "If the Great Qin Ying Clan can withstand this calamity, they might just become the rulers of Tiandong and take control of Tiandong City."
Ying Clan In the mundane world, unable to reach the heavenly ears, how can one control Tian Dong Da in the Underworld?
Both individuals are Minghong, and Gu Ping Ci suggests that without the support of a respected figure behind Ying Clan, they may struggle to withstand the wrath of such a being.
If Ying Clan were to control the mundane world, perhaps they could manage human affairs; if not, in the past, many factions did not dominate alone, which would not be the best choice.
The analysis is quite reasonable, yet it remains unclear what Heavenly Gate intends. Such words become castles in the air without foundation. If Leng Gucun were to know that the Nine Nether Invasion was merely a prelude to The Battle of the Three Realms, they surely would not have spoken so.
If someone wishes to take on the role of the leader, what then?
It seems there are opportunities for all. From Bu Luo Yan Dong's perspective, Tai Xu and the Jade Void Sect appear most promising. Although Yang Sheng is mediocre, there are successors in Jade Void Sect. In recent years, Gan Yuan has made rapid progress while lying low, drawing everyone's attention.
What about him, Cheng Zong?
Though aging, he remains steadfast against the sharp edge of the Nine Nether Army. Without assistance, he may struggle against Bu Luo.
At that moment, Leng Gucun suddenly paused. Without support, looking at those two individuals before him, it was clear there was no intention to form an alliance. Both factions could not withstand the might from the north, facing the forces of Ninth Underworld. If they joined forces now, connecting their defenses from east to west, they might not even need other powers to intervene; they could hold back the Nine Nether Army north of Shi He Shan. Would either faction allow such a situation to arise?
The younger brother wanted to ask Leng one thing: does Moon River Sect truly wish to be eliminated early in this conflict?
His friend laughed and said, "I don't deny it." Even if Ying Clan and your esteemed Sect do not ally with Hades and Youluo, can they really handle it easily? After the battle, there may not be any goodwill left between you two; how could you say that Moon River Sect would be eliminated early?
He recalled during the battle in the Eastern Extreme Secret Realm, when Nine Nether Distant Lord Zhang Liuyuan was not one of our disciples from Moon River Sect. During the Sky East Tournament, Shen Shi also had entanglements with your sect. Both incidents arose because of us at Moon River Sect. So now, does Leng want to bet on our sect's downfall?
As Leng Gucun suddenly changed his expression, Ying Wuyi looked at Gu Ping in surprise. The latter did not deny it. He had already grasped Leng Gucun's movements ahead of time, and when he mentioned giving him an Eastern Show of Strength, he appeared confident. Not only Leng Gucun and Ying Wuyi, but even Ying Hong, who had weathered countless storms over the years, felt that Gu Ping must know something. It was hard to believe that Gu Ping had just guessed right by chance, hitting the nail on the head.
Could it be that Cold Friend was investigating the Demon Cultivator?
Seeing Leng Gucun's pale face, Gu Ping leaned slightly forward, cracking his lips twice. Although he didn't speak, it was clear what he wanted to express.
How would I know?
Oh no, guessed wrong again! Gu Ping felt a surge of joy; someone was stepping up as a scapegoat. Perhaps even Leng Gucun himself was unaware that the territory of Cheng Zong had discovered the lurking presence of the Demon Cultivator. He didn't know if the two were pursuing the same den of evil.
