Capítulo 2355: Chapter 53: Qingping’s 100 Years (Part 2)
“Later on at Guangwen Yexiewu Hall, when I was presiding at the Minhe Temple, I heard that you encountered another ‘’ in the Border Wilderness, so I specially talked with you for a long ti. At that ti, the two ‘’s were not connected. The ‘’ presiding at Minhe Temple was actually always observing you, trying to find traces of the Phantom Demon Lord. Both ‘’s were wary of the Phantom Demon Lord’s tactics, but unfortunately, neither of ‘’ found any traces on you. As a Demon Monarch who attained the Dao through the ‘Finger Snap Illusionary Demon Art,’ his thods are always unpredictable and secretive.”
Jiang Wang quietly listened to this, only saying, “The thods of the Phantom Demon Lord are indeed unpredictable, and Master Tu was also very tily today.”
Tu Hu pondered slightly, then said, “The female Ghost Demon we just saw, you must still rember her, right? You t her in the Border Wilderness and even fought with her. She is Wanyan Qingping of the Wanyan Family, once a famous God Descendant genius. She has long been controlled by foreign forces, but as to which force, I won’t say…”
“After notifying the head of the Wanyan Family, I prepared my tactics on her and arranged for her to die in the Border Wilderness, to be captured by the Phantom Demon Lord and beco a Ghost Demon. This is also a crucial reason why I could appear so tily today.”
The Ghost Demon has almost beco a symbolic representation of the Phantom Demon Lord; yet Tu Hu managed to intervene and successfully laid down his tactics. The difficulty and effort involved can’t be fully explained in a few words.
Back then, Tu Hu used Wanyan Qingping as a lead to track down a series of big fish. After using up her value alive, he sent Wanyan Qingping to the Border Wilderness, designing against the Phantom Demon Lord, utilizing the value of her death… He doesn’t need to explain all this.
Now he only needed to explain to Jiang Wang why he could co so tily.
More than just rembering Wanyan Qingping, Jiang Wang was brought imnse pressure by the Ghost Demon during that skirmish 2,600 miles into the Border Wilderness. At the ti, he was prepared to fight for his life, planning to first take down this woman.
He was amazed at Tu Hu’s skills and thods.
But these were not enough to convince him.
“Your country’s protection of the Gray Wolf Fighting Arena was also tily,” Jiang Wang said.
He referred to those three experts who sealed the Gray Wolf Fighting Arena at the first opportunity and have yet to reveal themselves.
It was impossible for him to believe that Tu Hu hadn’t prepared in advance or was completely unaware of when the Phantom Demon Lord would act.
You co so tily and set up everything so precisely, and in the end, you say you knew nothing and it was all a coincidence—who would believe that?
If the day before yesterday, in the Minhe Temple, Jiang Wang’s attitude toward Tu Hu was one of gratitude mixed with restraint and caution, then after today’s event, his attitude shut down noticeably.

Tu Hu, whose human and deity aspects are combined, deeply felt this.
He sighed softly and suddenly transmitted a voice to Jiang Wang’s mind: “I know it’s hard to dispel Marquis Wu’an’s doubts today; I can understand that anyone would feel the sa. So, I want to tell you a secret… sothing concerning my hidden Divine Skills, which will surely dispel your doubts. But this matter, from my mouth to your ear, must not be spread. Would you like to hear it?”
Jiang Wang instinctively wanted to nod and agree, but his thoughts suddenly wavered, and the Divine Power Seed within the Five Mansions Sea seed to pulse vaguely.
Upon closer inspection, it was motionless.
But he had a faint feeling… this might be a wrong choice.
Jiang Wang, oh Jiang Wang, what virtue or capability do you have to listen to a secret Divine Skill of a Yandao True Monarch?
What qualification do you have to listen, and what ability to keep such a secret safe?
He imdiately severed his thought and said, “I’ve heard that ancient gentlen could speak of anything to others. I am not soone who likes to pursue things to the end, but having narrowly escaped disaster, I need a reasonable explanation. If Master Tu feels unable to explain clearly or I am unworthy of an explanation, you may say nothing. If you feel it can be explained clearly, then lay it out openly, not just for to hear. When the Phantom Demon Lord acted across realms just now, the danger not only concerned ; to Brother Dou and those in attendance, it was also a misfortune.”
“Why can’t Master Tu let listen? But Dou really wants to hear an explanation,” Dou Zhao said. “Your Demon Hunting is your business. To hunt demons and bring them into your Royal Court is also your freedom. But disregarding the safety of foreign envoys, I, representing Chuguo, find it perplexing. What kind of conduct is this?”
There’s a phrase, “justified and confident,” because with reason on their side, Jiang Wang in the God Descending Realm and Dou Zhao could earnestly demand an explanation from Tu Hu.
Of course, justification and confidence require an environnt where reasoning holds value.
The Qi-Chu alliance backing Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao is why they can speak boldly.
At this mont, Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao’s approach was already sowhat pressuring. Especially with Jiang Wang exposing Tu Hu’s secret transmission, it undoubtedly placed him in an awkward situation.
But Tu Hu didn’t seem annoyed and just calmly said, “Then let explain in detail.”
“Using Wanyan Qingping as the setup for this situation has taken nearly a century, during which I repeatedly ventured into the Border Wilderness to hunt demons, drawing the Phantom Demon Lord’s attention and influencing him. In the view of that with Dongzhen Cultivation, under the Phantom Demon Lord’s gaze, it was often a matter of life and death. Trying to do anything was extrely difficult. It could only be subtle, striving for water to wear away stone. A century-long plan, only today does the net formally close.”
