Chapter 1773 - 1776: Patient Guidance
Qin Hai returned to Blood Continent, while Lu Xiaobu continued rushing back.
However, just a few hundred kilometers from Gourd Waist, Lu Xiaobu suddenly stopped!
"Tsk!" Lu Xiaobu smacked his lips, "Come out, were you waiting for me here?"
As his words fell, a figure appeared in front.
It was none other than Xin Lifeng, the War Chief of the God Slaying Alliance!
Along with his appearance, two other figures approached from afar, both Cultivators of the Out-of-Body Stage!
"I’ve been waiting for you a long time." Xin Lifeng stared at Lu Xiaobu with tumultuous True Yuan, stirring the surrounding space to prevent Lu Xiaobu from escaping via spatial travel.
"How did you come up with this plan?" Lu Xiaobu looked at Xin Lifeng, albeit with a slightly odd expression.
Upon hearing Lu Xiaobu’s question, Xin Lifeng sneered, his eyes carrying a hint of pride: "I discovered long ago that Qin Hai was your man, and even his business dealings in God Slaying City had my backing behind them."
"Did you really think no one could see through this ruse?"
"Did you really think there wasn’t a single vigilant person in this world who would comfortably hand over Spirit Stones to someone at a mere Golden Core Stage?"
"Without my backing, it couldn’t have gone so smoothly!"
Xin Lifeng sneered repeatedly, explaining why Qin Hai was able to sweep away all the Spirit Stones from God Slaying City in such a short time.
"Is that so?" Lu Xiaobu’s expression grew even more peculiar: "Alright, now I understand why he managed to do it so effortlessly!"
This move truly caught Lu Xiaobu off guard.
Dignified War Chief backing Qin Hai, no wonder!
"And everything I’ve done was for this moment!" Xin Lifeng’s gaze turned sharp: "Only with an immense amount of Spirit Stones would you risk coming yourself to pick up Qin Hai, and what I needed was to wait for you!"
"When you return, I’ll surround and kill you!"
"Once this happens, you won’t be able to hide in Southwest Huludao, or even anywhere on West Melon Island!"
"Let me tell you, Lu Xiaobu, today is the day you die!"
Xin Lifeng felt a bit smug.
This was the grand trap he set for Lu Xiaobu.
For this scheme, he was even willing to deceive everyone in God Slaying City, including a few masters of the Divine Separation Stage!
Now, the time for reaping has finally come!
Lu Xiaobu listened, nodded, and even clapped: "Brilliant!"
Then, Lu Xiaobu earnestly looked at Xin Lifeng: "Honestly, Old Xin, I really admire you, why don’t you join me? Seriously!"
"What do you mean? At death’s door, and still babbling nonsense?!" Xin Lifeng was furious.
He never expected that Lu Xiaobu, at this point, would still say such things!
It was an insult to him, a tremendous insult!
Without another word, Xin Lifeng was ready to strike.
"Hold on, no rush, you’ve surrounded me, what’s a little more time?" Lu Xiaobu chuckled, "How about I analyze the plan further?"
Listening to Lu Xiaobu, Xin Lifeng really didn’t want to. He was well aware of Lu Xiaobu’s eloquence!
But before he could refuse, Lu Xiaobu started speaking on his own.
"Firstly, let’s talk about your mistake; millions of Spirit Stones are a lot, indeed, but to me, they’re not much of a concern."
"So, my target was never these millions of Spirit Stones, but rather to throw the entire God Slaying Alliance into chaos!"
Upon hearing this, Xin Lifeng sneered repeatedly, "At death’s door, and making empty threats!"
"Empty threats or not, keep listening." Lu Xiaobu smiled, "It was supposed to be a long-term plan, but because of your interference, it became a short-term one."
"Just imagine, when so many people in the God Slaying Alliance lose their entire fortunes, their first reaction will be what?"
"They’ll seek Qin Hai’s whereabouts, right?"
"And when these true and false leads point to the surrounding cities, what will they do?"
Upon hearing this, Xin Lifeng’s face changed; he seemed to have realized something!
"You guessed it, in such circumstances, they won’t care about any stupid rules; anger will ignite their reason, they’ll forcibly open the city gates and rush in!"
"And with oppression comes resistance! These assaulted cities will have those unwilling to be looked down upon like this."
"They will resist and chaos will erupt, and among those who lost everything, there will be greedy ones, won’t they blatantly loot amidst the chaos?!"
"They absolutely will!"
"Thus, the chaos increases more and more!"
"If, at this time, someone inside fans the flames, like shouting that this city is rebelling, what do you think will happen?"
Lu Xiaobu said this, chuckling as he looked at Xin Lifeng.
Xin Lifeng’s face had completely changed; he looked at Lu Xiaobu in disbelief, his throat inadvertently moved!
He’s not stupid, never been stupid!
Whether it’s this plan that sweeps the world or the killing trap set against Lu Xiaobu right now, they all prove his intelligence and strategy.
Previously, he always thought Lu Xiaobu was after those Spirit Stones; as long as he went with the flow and then killed Lu Xiaobu, even if God Slaying City would be briefly chaotic, it would be worth it!
But now, as Lu Xiaobu broke down the plan step by step, he panicked!
Because he had already imagined that scenario.
"It will make a mighty bong, causing immense chaos!" Lu Xiaobu provided the answer, "At that point, whether rebellion or not, it is rebellion!"
"So what! If nothing else, we’ll destroy... destroy... obliterate this city!" Xin Lifeng said through clenched teeth, his body trembling slightly.
Indeed, whether rebellion or not, it had become a rebellion. To prevent accidents, he could only make this ruthless decision, to directly destroy the city and then recover slowly!
"Yes, that’s a good tactic; I’m sure if you were present, you would certainly do so and would definitely be able to suppress it." Lu Xiaobu nodded appreciatively.
Then he changed his tone: "But, unfortunately, you’re not there, those people don’t have your skills, and I’ve arranged for someone to immediately shout for everyone to flee once someone mentions rebellion!"
"So... what will happen then?"
Lu Xiaobu spoke persuasively, like a bad uncle luring kids with candy!
However, that kid, Xin Lifeng, was already trembling like a sieve: "No! No! Impossible! Impossible! You can’t! You can’t do this!"
His face had turned completely pale!
He understood it all, everything!
This demon, truly a demon, the greatest demon ever from the Demon Realm!
