"Do you have a solution?"

"Yes, I am ninety percent sure I can do it."

Han Zhan nodded slightly, "Moreover, not only can I do it, but I can turn this bad situation into a good one."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look.

The angle of their lean was even greater than when they turned to look at Senior Brother Shen Luo just now.

"Is it true or false?"

"Ji Fa, this is not the time to brag, do you really have a solution to this problem?"

"We only have three days, and you want to turn a bad situation into a good one, Fifth Junior Brother, you can’t just talk nonsense!"

Almost everyone’s first reaction was disbelief.

Although Han Zhan has immense Life Energy, that only proves he has extremely high talent.

Talent has never equated to solving problems.

Only Jiang Ziya was noncommittal to Han Zhan’s words and did not show any suspicious gaze.

He gently stroked his beard and said, "Let’s hear it."

"Now? I can’t say." Han Zhan shook his head, "And if I’m not mistaken, the third move is about to come."

The third move?

What third move?

Seeing the confusion on everyone’s face, Han Zhan, as if recalling the time he was the Great Xia Leader strategizing, calmly said:

"Do you really think the mastermind behind the scenes went to such great lengths just to destroy the Celestial God Sacrifice?"

"The bigger show is yet to come."

As if to prove Han Zhan’s words.

At this moment, everyone’s Eight Trigrams Token lit up simultaneously, spelling out clear golden words in the sky.

"Xiqi people’s unrest."

Only six words.

But the impact of these six words was no less than the destruction of the Celestial God Sacrifice.

What is the doctrine of the Ancestral Temple?

To protect all people and save all beings.

What does the Ancestral Temple rely on for their pursuit of the Dao?

Faith, reverence, and Wish Power from the people.

If the grain warehouse riot was just a headache, then the Xiqi people’s unrest is definitely a cut to the Ancestral Temple’s main artery!

People’s minds cannot be chaotic!

Once people’s minds are chaotic, their Dao Cultivation, enhanced by faith and Wish Power, will instantly crumble.

The threat of Xiqi people’s unrest could be even more significant than the destruction of the Celestial God Sacrifice!

"Fifth Junior Brother, what did you foresee?"

"It’s not the time to keep us in suspense!"

"Ji Fa, tell us quickly!"

Faced with the heavy urging tones from the crowd, Han Zhan did not hide and unfolded his guess.

"It’s simple, the ultimate motive of the person behind the scenes must be very significant to do so much."

"Though the wrath of the Celestial God is terrifying, it is not fatal to Xiqi and the Ancestral Temple, the real fatal blow is cutting the ’root’ of the Ancestral Temple’s Dao!"

"This is what I speculated while quelling the grain warehouse riot and receiving feedback from people’s faith, and subsequent events have confirmed my speculation."

From using the grain warehouse riot to lure away the forces, this is one.

Timing into the Ancestral Temple to destroy the Celestial God Sacrifice is two.

And the real killer move that could doom Xiqi and the Ancestral Temple is spreading rumors that the Celestial God Sacrifice was destroyed and that in three days, the Sun God will bring down wrath, turning Xiqi into a wasteland, this is three!

"If I’m not mistaken, the news about the Ancestral Temple’s Celestial God Sacrifice being destroyed has spread throughout Xiqi."

The opponent has methods similar to Yanshi Puppet, easily spreading this information hidden among the crowd.

After listening to Han Zhan’s words, the other senior brothers and sisters were enlightened.

Chang Hao immediately said, "Then I will deploy all the Star Official Puppets to refute the rumors and stabilize people’s minds."

"No!" Han Zhan interrupted Chang Hao, "Refute rumors? First, it must be a rumor to refute, are the spread information rumors?"

No.

Not only are they not rumors, but they are particularly true.

If rumors are refuted now, people’s minds may stabilize; however, once the lies are exposed, it will be devastating.

Refuting rumors would be exactly falling into the opponent’s trap.

"Then what should we do now, just let things continue like this?" Third Senior Sister Bai Shang asked.

"This is the method I am going to talk about next."

Han Zhan didn’t say it before because he was worried that if he said it too early, the subsequent development would deviate from what he anticipated.

But now, since the last move of the opponent has been made,

it’s time for his turn.

"What’s your plan?"

Master Jiang Ziya still maintained that calm demeanor, even at this point in the situation, he hadn’t shown any trace of panic.

Because of this, he quite resembled the Jiang Ziya in Han Zhan’s memory who was adept at strategizing.

Han Zhan nodded slightly toward Jiang Ziya and then said:

"My plan is to break in order to build."

"Since the other party wants to expose the destruction of the Celestial God Sacrifice, we don’t need to be hesitant. Just openly admit it."

"Admit?" Lu Tao was stunned for a moment.

"If we admit it, people’s faith is bound to plummet to the bottom, and by then, our strength will be greatly diminished!"

Indeed, this is the opponent’s obvious scheme.

The offerings the people present to the Celestial God are stored in the Ancestral Temple out of trust.

If at this time, the Ancestral Temple confesses to the Xiqi people and admits their negligence, will the people be willing? Willn’t their hearts become more chaotic?

"This is what I meant by breaking down to establish, breaking to build later."

"Moreover, you guys regard people’s hearts as too fragile, as if they are something that can’t withstand the toss, something that will shatter at a touch."

"Ji Fa, you say it so lightly because you haven’t received much feedback. You don’t know what a huge impact people’s lack of faith will have on our Dao." Chang Hao couldn’t resist a retort.

"That’s right." To the surprise of others, Han Zhan not only didn’t refute but candidly admitted it.

"Precisely because I haven’t received much feedback, I’m unafraid of a shortfall in people’s faith, and not fearing is the premise for these plans to be conceived."

"I believe the mastermind behind the scene never anticipated we would choose such a desperate measure."

Because without Han Zhan, the Ancestral Temple might not have such aggressive plans,

and the people in the Ancestral Temple certainly wouldn’t dare to do so.

"But..." Lu Tao still wanted to say something, and Bai Shang also hesitated to speak.

At this moment, a voice interrupted their conversation.

"Enough." Jiang Ziya, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke.

"Let’s proceed with Ji Fa’s plan."

"The rest of you, cooperate well with Ji Fa."

From his words, it seemed he didn’t intend to handle the whole situation himself.

Witnessing this, the other disciples of the Ancestral Temple exchanged glances.

In the end, they could only reply: "Yes!"
