Chapter 1345: Chapter 1345: Scheming Minds, Targeting Lingque
Capture them and use poison for control…
Then use the elderly, won, and children inside to threaten these core experts of the Lingque. That way, we won’t fear that these sowhat innocent Lingque clan mbers would disobey, nor would they dare to expose the fact that the Secret Realm has been occupied.
For those with a hard attitude, poison them to death and throw them out, making it look like they died of an illness to continuously delay ti.
Or let a few spies leave the Secret Realm, pretending their identities were exposed, thus killing them to silence.
As long as Master Wuji doesn’t discover the Secret Realm has been occupied and doesn’t bring strong forces en masse into the realm, it can remain hidden.
Upon pondering this, the venerables suddenly recalled sothing, all of them shivering and staring straight at Pei Yufeng.
The latter gave a strange smile and imdiately said, “Have you all figured it out? According to what that woman said just now, given the current situation of the battle, Xiu Hanzi must have been captured by the people I stationed in the Lingque Secret Realm.”
“After years apart, Xiu Hanzi and Qi Wuji t with tearful eyes…”
“Qi Wuji would certainly want to take Xiu Hanzi to visit inside the Lingque Secret Realm, but upon entering, they were ambushed by my spies. That’s why Xiu Hanzi couldn’t lead Wuji Town’s military against us.”
After speaking, Pei Yufeng couldn’t help but want to laugh out loud…
The venerables’ gazes once again solidified, looking towards the ruins and dust of the town.
It does seem like what Pei Yufeng said; otherwise, having Xiu Hanzi in Wuji Town gives no reason not to continue defending, no reason to abandon defense, because Xiu Hanzi isn’t without hope of winning.
Abandoning Wuji Town is like severing an arm!
Using Xiu Hanzi’s terrifying Qianyuan Soldier Killing Array combined with Qi Wuji’s nurous Emperor’s Artifacts, if they cause the surrounding array soldiers to incur heavy losses, there’s a chance to break through…
At this, Pei Yufeng continued, “Now that I’ve set the spies in the Lingque Secret Realm exposed, it’s because capturing Xiu Hanzi exposed them. So Qi Wuji is probably trying every ans to rescue him.”
“Without his troops, Xiu Hanzi is nothing.”
Finally, Pei Yufeng emphasized decisively, “Which ans we must strike into the Lingque Secret Realm now, ensuring Xiu Hanzi is not rescued, and at the sa ti, take over what Xiu Hanzi gained from this battle.”
Hearing this, everyone’s eyes flashed with brilliance…
But Mieqing Venerable’s old friend frowned deeply and said, “Wouldn’t this be their trap in the Lingque Secret Realm?”
She still felt that what the woman said just now was very, very strange.
So venerables withdrew their delighted thoughts, nodding heavily, feeling things were going too smoothly.
Pei Yufeng also nodded, “There is such a possibility, so we must be well-prepared, strategically advancing step by step.”
At this mont, Pei Yufeng was very calm, not dazzled by emotions.
As he spoke, Pei Yufeng continued softly, “I will have Array Master Luu step into the town step by step. All venerables should also spread out cautiously throughout the town to assess whether there are other traps?”
If it’s a trick, there are two possibilities…
One is that the ruins of Wuji Town harbor terrifying traps, and any venerable entering will be obliterated…
The second is that the trap lies within the Lingque Secret Realm.
Therefore, Pei Yufeng proceeded cautiously, allowing a small portion of troops into the town, and having the venerables explore all directions of Wuji Town.
Though slower, this thod guarantees foolproof safety…
However, this proposal made the venerables stare at each other, with many having flickering eyes.
Suddenly, another venerable asked, “Young Master Pei, what will you do?”
Pei Yufeng responded, “I will of course take a few of my most loyal venerables and head to the Lingque Secret Realm… I cannot allow Xiu Hanzi the chance to regain control of the troops, lest it troubles everyone.”
The aning was clear: Xiu Hanzi must be fully controlled as soon as possible, or there is a risk of him being rescued by Qi Wuji.
By then, Xiu Hanzi could reassert control over Wuji Town’s forces, causing heavy losses for them.
But Pei Yufeng deliberately emphasized those most loyal to him.
Upon hearing this, the venerables’ eyes flickered continuously. Han Dong Venerable suddenly said, “Fine, let’s go with Young Master Pei’s plan. I shall first explore the southeast to see any traps within the town, goodbye for now.”
After speaking, Han Dong Venerable flickered and disappeared.
Surprisingly, he did not go with Pei Yufeng to the Lingque Secret Realm but chose to act alone.
Afterwards, one by one, other venerables followed Han Dong Venerable’s lead, disappearing from the Divine Shuttle Ship, also claiming to search for traps within the town…
Finally, Mieqing Venerable said, “I will go find Sikong Buwang.”
Now uninterested in the Lingque Secret Realm and Xiu Hanzi, Mieqing Venerable focuses on rescuing a genius of her Wunian Saint Sect.
Mieqing’s old friend frowned and followed Mieqing Venerable out…
In an instant, only a few severely injured venerables remained on Pei Yufeng’s Divine Shuttle Ship. Of course, these were the ones most loyal to him, having co to Wuji Town two days prior.
One injured venerable asked, “Why did all leave? Shouldn’t so be left to accompany Young Master Pei to explore the Lingque Secret Realm?”
Upon hearing this, Pei Yufeng suddenly laughed softly, a chilling, sinister laugh.
“These venerables, each with personal agendas, did not intend to search for traps around. They’re heading to the Lingque Secret Realm, hoping to seize Xiu Hanzi behind my back.”
Hearing this, the injured venerables’ faces changed dramatically.
“Yes, I know that woman was strange, likely a trap.”
“So I plan to play on these venerables’ own greed, having them scout around for supposed traps, really letting them precede to survey the Lingque Secret Realm.”
“If it’s a sche, they’ll die first, and I’ll imdiately receive intel and retreat.”
“If not, no one can take Xiu Hanzi under my nose. Array Master Luu’s Soldier Killing Array is no joke.”
Pei Yufeng annunciated each word, tone sinister and terrifying.
The injured venerables were dumbfounded, realizing Pei Yufeng had seen through their selfishness and let them probe the Lingque Secret Realm first, afraid of traps inside.
“Young Master Pei truly is a great talent,” praised an injured venerable at that mont.
Pei Yufeng naturally relished the praise, then said with ease, “Let’s go. Having declared to scout the Lingque Secret Realm, we can’t remain on the ship. We’ll pretend to enter the town, then return to the troops and observe…”
The injured venerables nodded repeatedly, following Pei Yufeng off the Divine Shuttle Ship, blending into the surrounding troops.
Under Pei Yufeng’s command, the troops stepped forward step by step…
…
anwhile, beneath Wuji Town, in vast underground passages, nearly all of Wuji Town’s people hid here.
Master Wuji often feared exposure…
Thus for decades, enormous secret tunnels were dug underground. To execute Sikong Jing’s plan, additional sections were carved out these days, enough to house everyone.
However, the underground passages couldn’t lead beyond town, having been hertically sealed by the surrounding town’s troops with formations.
