Chapter 1124: Chapter 1123 Conspiracy (2nd Update)
Ye Haochuan pushed everything away, leaving Liu iyu helpless even though she wanted to lash out, as she had no evidence. This trip was rely to exert pressure on the Long Alliance, and she didn’t expect Ye Haochuan’s response to be so firm.
“Fine, fine! Ye Haochuan, you just wait. Being an enemy of the Phantom Sound Pavilion will surely not end well!” Liu iyu fiercely threatened before flinging her sleeve and leaving.
Hah, do you think I’m easily scared?
Although Ye Haochuan appeared disdainful towards Liu iyu, he dared not ignore her completely, considering she was a Core Formation expert.
After Liu iyu left the Long Alliance, she was suddenly blocked at a street corner by a car. Already in a foul mood, she angrily shouted, “Get lost or I’ll kill you!”
A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a suit stepped out of the car and respectfully said to Liu iyu, “Hello, our family head requests your presence.”
Liu iyu sneered, “Who is your family head? Is he so remarkable that I must go when invited?”
The man said, “Our family head is Liu Cangsong from the Liu Family, specially inviting you to discuss matters related to the Long Alliance.”
“Matters concerning the Long Alliance?” Liu iyu pondered for a mont before ultimately getting into the car.
…
Within the Liu Family’s council chamber, more than ten people were seated together, with Family Head Liu Cangsong looking solemn.
“Recent intelligence indicates that our Liu Family has been monitored and investigated, causing many issues to be handled discreetly with obvious harm to our family’s interests,” Liu Cangsong finally spoke after a while.
“Who dares to investigate our Liu Family?”
As one of the five major families in the Imperial Capital, the Liu Family holds significant power in the secular world, usually unapproached by the common folk.
Liu Cangsong said, “Long Alliance!”
“Long Alliance?” The group was astonished, “Isn’t that the dark horse from the many alliance etings, the esteed Supre Alliance winner?”
“That’s right!” Liu Chengyu said, “It’s this Long Alliance!”
“So what if they won the Supre Alliance title? It’s still a minor alliance, nowhere near the scale of the three major alliances.”
Many regarded the Long Alliance with disdain, as traditionally, the change in the rules during the alliance etings was a rare occurrence, and the Long Alliance would otherwise never qualify for the Supre Alliance quest.
Liu Cangsong said, “Although the Long Alliance isn’t large in numbers or scale, it should not be underestimated. Since its establishnt, it has gained widespread recognition. Previously, the Long Alliance had only two or three Foundation Establishnt cultivators, but now that Long Piaoying has joined, we must pay attention.”
“Long Piaoying?” Upon hearing this na, the group fell silent, their thoughts drifting to another person, another matter.
Liu Chengyu said, “Everyone here is not an outsider, so I’ll speak directly. Given the current developnt pace of the Long Alliance, my father and I believe that it won’t be long before it replaces the Long Group’s position, which is not favorable for us.”
“Long Group?” A senior was stunned, “Do you an there’s a connection between the Long Alliance and the Long Group?”
Liu Chengyu said, “We’re uncertain about the relationship between the Long Alliance and the Long Group, but one thing is certain: the Long Alliance is closely connected to Long Xiaotian, or else Long Piaoying wouldn’t have joined!”
Liu Cangsong said, “If the Long Alliance is allowed to grow, it will be a huge problem for us. Earlier, we thought the Phantom Sound Pavilion and the Long Alliance had a conflict, and the Phantom Sound Pavilion would obliterate the Long Alliance. But now it seems, we must act personally.”
Soone shouted, “Then we’ll nip them in the bud!”
The elder worriedly said, “After all, this is the Imperial Capital, and anything too prominent is inappropriate. I think we need to seriously consider this matter.”
Liu Cangsong said, “Indeed, this operation cannot be too conspicuous, so just three people will suffice.”
“Three?” The group was shocked, “Long Piaoying is a Core Formation Early Stage cultivator, and Ye Haochuan is almost at the Foundation Establishnt Peak, along with other Foundation Establishnt cultivators in the Long Alliance. Three people… doesn’t seem secure enough.”
Liu Cangsong said, “This ti, I will hold off Long Piaoying, and Chengyu will eliminate Ye Haochuan. Once Ye Haochuan is dead, the others are rely a rabble!”
With Liu Cangsong and Liu Chengyu being Core Formation Early Stage experts, the clansn had no argunts about that, but—
“Family Head, the other mbers of the Long Alliance are a considerable force too. Sending Foundation Establishnt cultivators won’t work, and we can’t find a third Core Formation expert within our clan.”
Liu Cangsong smiled sinisterly and said, “The third person will be here soon.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a clan mber reported, “Clan Leader, Liu iyu has arrived.”
“Let her in!”
Everyone was surprised and asked collectively, “Liu iyu? Is she one of the ten enchantresses of Phantom Sound?”
Liu Cangsong said, “Yes, precisely her!”
Soon, Liu iyu entered the council chamber, glanced around, sat down unceremoniously, and asked, “I wonder why Patriarch Liu invited , what exactly is the matter?”
Liu Cangsong said, “I heard your sect was constantly searching for the traitor Zhu Qingshuang and the Supre Treasure Red Moon Ancient Zither.”
“So what?” Such matters are seen on the Kill List; it isn’t a secret.
“As far as I know, the Phantom Sound Pavilion has been suspecting that the Long Alliance is harboring Zhu Qingshuang, but without evidence, the matter keeps being postponed.”
Liu iyu frowned and said, “Patriarch Liu, speak directly and don’t beat around the bush so much.”
“Alright!” Liu Cangsong imdiately said, “Honestly, my Liu Family and Ye Haochuan have unresolved conflicts. Today, we’re determined to destroy him and specially invite you to lend us a helping hand.”
“What does killing Ye Haochuan have to do with ?”
“We plan to kill Ye Haochuan, and naturally, the Long Alliance mbers won’t stand idly by. Hence, we hope you can help block the Long Alliance’s Foundation Establishnt cultivators. Once we kill Ye Haochuan, the Long Alliance will crumble, and capturing Zhu Qingshuang by the Phantom Sound Pavilion will be as easy as pie.”
Liu iyu thought briefly, and Liu Chengyu added, “There’s no need to worry. You only need to block those people and prevent them from interfering.”
Liu iyu said, “This is the Imperial Capital; are you planning to storm the Long Alliance directly?”
Liu Cangsong shook his head and said, “I have ways to lure them out of the city!”
Liu iyu promptly stood up and said, “Alright, I can help you!”
After they finalized the plan, Liu Cangsong summoned soone and whispered a few instructions, then along with Liu Chengyu and Liu iyu, departed through the Liu Family’s rear exit.
The vehicle drove to the outskirts of the city, where the three alighted and traveled through the air, arriving at Jianshui Gorge after nearly an hour.
This was a gorge where a gurgling spring flowed from the mountaintop, leading to a vast pool at the gorge’s end.
After preparing an ambush, Liu Cangsong gazed below with a sowhat vicious expression and muttered to himself, “Ye Haochuan, aren’t you investigating the Long Group? I’ll give you a clue, hoping you hurry and co!”
