Squeak, the door was pushed open, and it was Yu Zhenzi.
Yu Zhenzi lightly sidestepped, waiting for Pei Xuanjing to walk in. After observing that there were no abnormalities around, he closed the door again.
Follow me! Yu Zhenzi spoke lowly.
Pei Xuanjing was not afraid of any tricks he might play, he nodded his head and followed Yu Zhenzi.
The two entered a secret chamber, Pei Xuanjing chuckled, commenting: My dear Taoist friend, what brings you here today? Has something important occurred?
B0x.comEver since Yu Zhenzi discovered that he couldnt remove the sword intent within himself, he had completely admitted to his loss, opting to cooperate with Pei Xuanjing.
In the past few years, he had relayed many messages to Pei Xuanjing. Pei Xuanjing had verified these through Bai Xiaoshengs intelligence network, confirming that he wasnt trying to set him up.
Having gone through the previous life simulation, Pei Xuanjing had a rough guess of the purpose of Yu Zhenzis visit this time.
Sure enough, Yu Zhenzi spoke solemnly: The Lord of Shenxiao Gate has decided to take action against you.
Half a year ago, when Pei Xuanjing killed Zhu Chenhao, the Lord of Shenxiao Gate had already prepared to strike Pei Xuanjing.
Now that those matters have been dealt with, he has summoned his subordinates, preparing to ambush and kill Pei Xuanjing.
Upon confirming the news, Yu Zhenzi hurried to deliver the message.
Pei Xuanjing replied: I see.
Seeing his calm demeanor, Yu Zhenzi furrowed his brows: Are you that confident?
He wondered if Pei Xuanjing was being overly self-confident, overestimating his own ability and unaware of the danger he was about to face.
He knew full well how powerful the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was. Plus, the fact that the latter had even summoned four First-grade experts to support him in this joint offensive.
Even if he were to turn against them at the last minute, he did not believe that they could fend off the combined forces of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate and four First-grade experts.
After all, they were now tied to the same rope. He doubts if Pei Xuanjing would let him go out of goodwill when things get worse.
That is to say, unless Pei Xuanjing wins, his exposure would guarantee his demise.
Pei Xuanjing smiled subtly, confidently saying: You just need to do as I ask, luring them in. I will make sure no one leaves.
Knowing from the life simulation that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was planning to strike him, Pei Xuanjing wouldnt just sit there waiting for them to come.
Leaving the mountain, he had already sent a message to Bai Xiaosheng, asking him to invite the Taoist, Qingxu, to aid him.
This time, it would be better for the Lord of Shenxiao Gate to not show up. If he did, he would definitely not return.
Although Yu Zhenzi wasnt clear why Pei Xuanjing was so confident, he could only do as he said. After all, if this plan fails, not only would he, Yu Zhenzi, die, but Pei Xuanjing would not escape either.
I hope you would not lead us both to death. This was Yu Zhenzis thought.
Pei Xuanjing lightly put this matter aside and said, I want to know about something now? What is it? Yu Zhenzi asked.
Isnt this the most urgent matter now, and you still have the mood to ask about other things.
However, the next words from Pei Xuanjing left him speechless, unsure about how to answer.
Pei Xuanjing smiled and asked, If the Lord of Shenxiao Gate dies, can you take over his forces? Indeed, this is Pei Xuanjings true purpose.
Since he wants to reestablish the Shenxiao Sect, he certainly has to gather some manpower. He cant possibly do everything himself.
In his view, the forces controlled by the Lord of Shenxiao Gate are naturally prepared for himself.
Most of the people who follow the Lord of Shenxiao Gate have some connection with the former Shenxiao Sect and are against the Great Mings imperial court.
If the Lord of Shenxiao gate dies, unless they are willing to live in obscurity, they will need to find someone to protect them.
And he, as the orthodox descendant of the Shenxiao Sect, would be the most suitable person. He can provide them with protection and also ensure they wont be ostracized if they join other influences.
You Yu Zhenzis face betrayed his shock, and he took a sharp breath: Are you that confident that you can kill him?
By him, he was referring to the Lord of Shenxiao Gate.
He never thought that Pei Xuanjing would have such great ambitions.
The power of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate had left a deep impression on Yu Zhenzi. In his memory, it seems that the Lord had never failed in anything he wanted to do.
This was precisely why he could command this group of people hiding in the dark.
In Yu Zhenzis opinion, Pei Xuanjing should have been thinking about how to survive this ambush after hearing that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was plotting to kill him.
However, to his surprise, Pei Xuanjing seemed to consider the Lord of Shenxiao Gate as nothing and had intentions to take over his power.
This is undoubtedly like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.
Pei Xuanjing shook his head: As long as he makes a move against me, he will certainly die. What you need to tell me now is if you can take over the rest of his followers after the Lord of Shenxiao Gate dies.
The Lord of Shenxiao Gate might be very powerful, but Pei Xuanjing is not weak either.
Having accepted the reward from his last life simulation, Pei Xuanjings strength had reached a peak. He didnt consider himself inferior to those characters on the supreme list.
Moreover, to be on the safe side, he invited Qingxu, the Taoist, through Bai Xiaosheng for backup.
If, under such circumstances, the Lord of Shenxiao Gate could still escape, Pei Xuanjing might as well run away and give up the idea of setting a trap.
However, what he is worried about now is another point how to smoothly take over the power under the control of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate after he dies.
The key to this situation lies with Yu Zhenzi.
After all, he knew nothing about those people and they were complete strangers. It would not be easy to persuade them to surrender.
Seeing Pei Xuanjings confidence, Yu Zhenzi knew that he had no other choice, he gritted his teeth and said, As long as you can kill him, leave the rest to me. Ill make sure you are pleased. Yu Zhenzi decided to trust Pei Xuanjing this time.
Of course, even if he trusts Pei Xuanjing, he would not leave himself without a backup plan.
He was ready to abandon everything and flee to far away lands outside the border if this operation failed.
After all, it is harsh outside the border, even the influence of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate couldnt reach there. As long as he hides his identity there, he would be worry-free.
Pei Xuanjing didnt know what Yu Zhenzi was thinking, after all, he couldnt possibly see through peoples hearts..
