Chapter 608 Don’t forget, you still have to help me fight Gu Xiu, don’t die!
"Damn, why so fast?"
The red cloud ladder to heaven began to emerge above the sky, and the Queen of the Underworld's expression changed slightly in an instant, and her brows were furrowed.
After a moment's thought, the Nether Queen turned to look at Gu Xiu beside her and said, "Sui Yu'an, since you have already returned the Scarlet Cloud Divine Son safely as agreed, then next, you should find an opportunity to quickly leave the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty and do not linger here any longer."
"Leaving the Divine Dynasty?" Gu Xiu shook his head: "I can't leave."
The Nether Queen spoke, "I know you accepted Mo Chen as your student, but a student is only a student, not a disciple. There's no need to risk your life for him. The Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty will soon become a battlefield, a terrifying one!"
"Battlefield?" Gu Xiu was surprised.
The Queen of the Underworld nodded and told Gu Xiu about the situation.
This time she followed Guan Xuelan to the Chiyun Divine Dynasty, pretending to defect to the Chiyun Divine Dynasty, but she actually had two purposes.
The first thing, of course, is to ensure Sui Yu'an's safety.
The second reason was to understand the plans of the Chiyun Divine Dynasty and to act as a hidden pawn of the Righteous Alliance in the Chiyun Divine Dynasty.
But of course, the Queen of the Underworld didn't even mention the first goal to Gu Xiu.
But the second purpose was explained in detail.
At the beginning, Guan Xuelan told her that Lord Chiyun had formed a Chiyun League, uniting with several holy lands and divine dynasties in Beiming to attack the Righteousness League and take down this most powerful force. She even told her that the Taoist Master Demon Eye had rebelled.
But now it seems that he was deceiving her.
At least, the Taoist with the Demonic Eyes has not made a decision yet.
But it wasn't a complete lie to her.
Because the Red Cloud Divine Lord did indeed bring together the Red Cloud Alliance, and they even had a lot of connections with each other. The reason why no one has come is mainly because the internal strife of the Red Cloud Divine Dynasty has not been resolved, and the position of the Red Cloud Divine Lord himself has not been stabilized.
but……
Once his position as the Godhead is confirmed, other sects will immediately send troops to complete the alliance.
Although the Queen of the Underworld did not understand the complete situation, she had already found out that there were at least three forces willing to form an alliance with the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty.
Once these three forces form an alliance with the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty, they will surely attract more people.
by that time.
The Righteous Alliance will be extremely passive.
and so.
The Queen of the Netherworld planned to take advantage of the situation and continue to lurk inside the Chiyun Divine Dynasty to understand all their deployments. Then she would secretly contact Chu Xiangling and the others. When the time came, they would all surround Chiyun and remove the thorn of the Chiyun Divine Dynasty. The alliance would naturally fall apart.
"Just after we entered the city today, Lord Scarlet Cloud pulled us together for another discussion."
"He said that he had borrowed the power of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Holy Land to lure out the Scarlet Cloud Divine City ahead of time. He would then use the Scarlet Cloud Divine City to completely eliminate Mo Chen. He has already invited all sects to send personnel to the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty. After the Son of God dies, they will immediately begin to clean up the Righteousness Alliance."
"That is to say."
"If Mo Chen enters Scarlet Cloud Divine City, he will definitely not return alive!"
Hearing this, Gu Xiu frowned. "Red Cloud Divine City isn't controlled by any party. Mo Chen possesses the royal bloodline of the Red Cloud Dynasty. Logically, he should be safer in Red Cloud Divine City. Did he mention what methods he plans to use to deal with Mo Chen?"
"He didn't say that, but Divine Lord Scarlet Cloud was very certain, and he also said that Mo Chen would be deserted by his friends and family and die."
"Abandoned by everyone?" Gu Xiu noticed the key point and immediately frowned: "Is there someone from the Divine Lord around Mo Chen? Who is it?"
The Nether Queen shook her head:
"do not know."
"But knowing or not knowing is not important."
"Mo Chen is just a Qi Refining cultivator. In the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty, he is like a lamb sent into the tiger's mouth. Whether it is in the ruins of the old Divine Dynasty or in this Scarlet Cloud New City, for the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord, even a glance is enough to crush him to death."
"He is doomed to fail."
This is the truth. Mo Chen is too weak, as weak as a fledgling that can't even flap its wings and fly high.
Being remembered by the Supreme.
He had no chance of winning.
only……
"I can't leave." Gu Xiu shook his head. Without waiting for the Nether Queen to persuade him, he said, "Since I am his teacher, I naturally cannot abandon him when he steps into danger. Besides, there is something I need in Scarlet Cloud Divine City, and I need to go and retrieve it."
"you……"
The Nether Queen was a little annoyed, but when she saw the determination in Gu Xiu's eyes, she fell silent and finally nodded: "It's okay if you don't leave. If you encounter any danger in the city, I can help you at any time. But if you enter Scarlet Cloud Divine City..."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Gu Xiu said, "As for you, the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord is no fool. He'll definitely be wary of you if you join him. You should be the one who should be careful."
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
"If things are impossible, I will evacuate first."
The Nether Queen opened her mouth, and as she spoke, the Scarlet Cloud Alliance flag on her body suddenly vibrated slightly. This meant that the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord was contacting their allies again. The Nether Queen said nothing more and turned to leave. But after taking a few steps, she stopped and turned back to look at Gu Xiu:
"Hey, you liar!"
"Don't forget, you still have to help me fight Gu Xiu, don't die!"
After saying this, without waiting for Gu Xiu to respond, the Queen of the Underworld turned around and left in a hurry.
Look at her back.
Gu Xiu was stunned for a moment.
In a trance.
He seemed to have seen this figure before.
But soon, this strange feeling disappeared without a trace. Shaking his head, he got rid of these messy thoughts. Gu Xiu raised his head and took another look at the Chiyun Ladder to Heaven, which had a few more steps. Finally, without hesitation, he turned around and ran straight towards the Duke's Mansion.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Duke's Mansion was solemn.
A group of dignitaries loyal to Mo Chen or Duke Zhou were anxiously discussing the next candidate. When they saw Gu Xiu coming back, many of them ignored him and continued their discussion:
"The Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord is willing to allow the Scarlet Cloud Divine City to be born prematurely. It's definitely not that simple. His plan is definitely not just to welcome the Divine City back, and it's even more impossible to abdicate the throne of the Divine Lord. He must have a plan that we are unaware of!"
"But he really only arranged two people. I even went to ask Miss An just now. Miss An was very happy to be able to go to the Divine City to help the Son of God."
"That's strange. Could the Lord God really be so kind?"
"Regardless of whether it's well-intentioned or not, I think the most urgent task is to quickly select the candidates who will enter Scarlet Cloud Divine City with the Son of God. Each time Scarlet Cloud Divine City opens, only a maximum of one hundred people can enter, so this selection is not easy."
"..."
After listening to everyone's discussion and hearing the details from Mo Chen about what happened to him in front of the palace today, Gu Xiu felt a little strange.
What does Lord Chiyun plan to do?
How can the situation where two people are determined to kill Mo Chen be formed?
"You said..."
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly spoke up: "Could it be that someone among us is the Lord God's man?"
Ok?
Everyone immediately looked strange.
It's not that I'm surprised that some of them are the Lord's men. After all, people's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. It would be strange if the Lord, as the Lord, couldn't stuff a few hidden weapons. I'm just wondering why this person mentioned this and said it in public.
"You mean..." Duke Zhou's pupils suddenly contracted. "Although the Divine Lord only sent two people, there may be many people among the people we sent out who are the Divine Lord's people?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone reacted.
Yes!
No more than one hundred people can enter the Divine City. The Divine Lord himself selected two, so to ensure the safety of the Divine Son, their faction would inevitably bring in as many people as possible, perhaps even using up all one hundred spots. But what if… most of the final group of people who enter have already defected to the Divine Lord, and then immediately turn against him after finally entering the Divine City?
For Mo Chen, that situation is still a death sentence!
"My people are my most loyal ones, they are definitely not the Lord God's people."
"It's mine too, so don't worry."
"My Qilin Guards are all brothers who have followed me through thick and thin. They will never rebel against the Son of God!"
"Me too!"
"..."
At one point, many people spoke up, stating that they had no second thoughts and that there was absolutely no possibility of their subordinates rebelling.
only……
Although everyone said that they were loyal, no one agreed when they said it. Even when they looked at each other, there was suspicion in their eyes.
It’s not that I’m suspicious of the people around me.
But...
What if the people around you are also deceived?
Nearly a hundred people are eligible to enter, but how many of them can truly guarantee that they have no ulterior motives?
In fact, even they themselves have some doubts.
"If it really doesn't work, we can reduce the number of people." Someone suggested: "We don't need to fill all the 100 spots, just leave some empty. Everyone can send out two trusted people. We can still pick out at least two absolute trusted people. Even if someone really does have a problem, it will be difficult for them to handle it alone!"
This made everyone's eyes light up:
"This is a good idea!"
"It's really good, but after entering the Divine City, will we be short of manpower?"
"Of course not. Although the Divine City is as big as the Imperial City, the Imperial Palace is right there, and so is our target. Most of the hundred men are just cannon fodder, exploring the way. We've already gathered quite a bit of intelligence after so many forays into the Divine Dynasty. We don't really need so many men."
"I think this is a good idea!"
"..."
This is indeed a good idea. Even if some of them have rebellious thoughts, or some of their confidants have been bribed, not all of them will be bribed. It seems that their strength has been weakened, but in fact it is a purification of these incoming members.
Duke Zhou nodded after listening to this. "This is indeed a good idea, Jing Li, what do you think?"
The question was thrown to Mo Chen.
Mo Chen did not answer easily, but first glanced at his teacher, but saw that his teacher was absent-minded, as if thinking about something, and finally nodded:
"This method may be worth a try."
After saying that, he looked at Gu Xiu again.
This time, Gu Xiu didn't think about it anymore. Instead, he turned around and said goodbye, walked straight out of the meeting hall, and walked straight out of the Duke's Mansion.
This……
What is he doing?
Everyone was puzzled and bewildered. Finally, Duke Zhou was the first to interrupt the silence:
"Now that we have decided to proceed in this way, let's move on."
"Let's each select our own personnel."
After saying this, Duke Zhou glanced somewhere outside, but he couldn't help but frowned slightly.
No one noticed this look.
But if someone looked carefully, they would find that in the direction where Duke Zhou's gaze was focused, a figure that was beyond everyone's expectations appeared in front of Gu Xiu.
