Chapter 1742 - 1744: The Devil Who Sows Discord
Lu Xiaobu watched the drama with great interest.
His original plan wasn’t like this. After all, he always formulated strategies assuming the opponent was a smart person.
Just like when he competed with Lin Feng back then, countless smoke bombs, countless feints, countless truths and lies stirred people’s hearts, finally driving straight to the point.
However, the way things have developed now makes him somewhat amused, even a bit bored, like punching into air.
From this perspective, these people did put him at a disadvantage.
He was watching the show from his side.
From the core array behind him, someone emerged, none other than Xin Lifeng, who had just gone in for a short while.
He wanted to come out and see how things were.
He was even maliciously thinking that he wanted to see which faction killed Lu Xiaobu.
However, when he saw the scene in front of him, his jaw almost dropped!
How could it be?
Yiji Mansion and the guys from the black market got into a fight?
Moreover, even those at the Out-of-Body Stage took action?
Is this a fight to the death?
What exactly happened?
According to his understanding, weren’t these two forces there to kill Lu Xiaobu?
How come he just went in for a while and these two forces were fighting like cats and dogs?
And most unbelievably, the person both sides wanted to kill is instead watching the show?
How was this achieved?
His gaze suddenly fell on the spectacle-watching Lu Xiaobu.
Then, his eyes grew deeper and more profound—it was him!
Although he didn’t know what happened, he instinctively felt, it was definitely him!
This person, this terrifying person, this person who can stir people’s hearts!
A hint of killing intent surfaced again, and he increasingly felt that this person couldn’t be left alive.
However.
Just as he was about to make a move.
"What? Want to kill me again?" Lu Xiaobu clapped his hands and said aloud.
Upon hearing this, Xin Lifeng was unmoved.
He didn’t want to hear anything Lu Xiaobu had to say. This person couldn’t be left alive, and he shouldn’t be listened to!
Otherwise, he would definitely be disturbed in his mind.
"Yes, you’re right. Indeed, you shouldn’t listen to me, otherwise, you’ll all turn into fools." Lu Xiaobu spoke again.
The words were extremely calm, but the meaning was intensely arrogant!
He opened his mouth, and everyone would turn into fools.
Even though Xin Lifeng had decided not to listen to him anymore, hearing this still filled him with rage: "Provoking me will only hasten your death!"
"Of course! I don’t deny that!" Lu Xiaobu nodded.
At this moment, he was still with his back to Xin Lifeng.
So, Xin Lifeng didn’t notice the curve on Lu Xiaobu’s lips.
What one fears most in a confrontation is not the opponent’s uncontrollable rage, but rather, the fear of them not speaking. As long as they speak, there is a way!
For example, now.
"But, it doesn’t matter if I die. What a pity for the grand plan of the God Slaying Alliance! Tsk tsk tsk, because of me, someone insignificant, who even wanted to help you, the whole big plan was ruined, alas!" Lu Xiaobu continued to speak nonchalantly!
"This matter doesn’t need your concern! The seniors will understand me!" Xin Lifeng gritted his teeth and said.
He thought Lu Xiaobu was talking about the seniors blaming him.
However, he figured it out, if they blame him, they blame him!
After all, this is the territory of the God Slaying Alliance. They still have ways to recreate the previous scene.
As long as the seniors saw this person’s terrifying nature, they would know he did the right thing!
"That’s not what I meant, though that’s one of them." Lu Xiaobu stretched lazily, looked up at the sky: "I’m a bit curious, since this isn’t planet construction, does this world’s horizon and edge really exist!"
He thought of it on the spot, the islands here were all on one plane, so they couldn’t be thought of with Blue Water Star’s common sense.
That said, there really is the concept of a horizon and edge!
A bit curious, what exactly could that place be?
Xin Lifeng ignored him, considering him as spouting nonsense, and meanwhile his hands continued accumulating strength, striving for a lethal blow!
"I, the co-lord of four cities of Gourd Waist, my death doesn’t matter, but if I die, the four cities will inevitably fall into internal strife, fighting till heads break and blood flows!"
"Moreover, they will definitely use the banner—’to avenge me!’"
"Not only them, but other city lords, sect masters and the like will think too!"
"The God Slaying Alliance killed! Killed a City Lord! And it was the co-lord of four cities! My God! Is this still the Holy Land in our hearts? Can they still be left to guard the core peacefully?!"
"However, whether they have enough qualifications or not, we must use this excuse to make the God Slaying Alliance give up some interests! The core isn’t their family’s property!"
"Moreover, we can use this opportunity to annex the Gourd Waist’s four cities, this is an absolute chain of interest! Now that there’s an opportunity, we mustn’t let it slip!"
"Tell me, did I guess their thoughts correctly?"
Lu Xiaobu looked up, then at Xin Lifeng, showing a smile.
This smile was sunny and kind, making people feel no fear at all!
However, at this moment, Xin Lifeng was plunged into an ice cellar!
This devil manipulating people’s hearts pointed out once more the ugliest part of the human mind.
And coincidentally, these were the things he had been worrying about all along!
The various forces on this island had long been disrespectful towards the God Slaying Alliance, and even harbored dissatisfaction.
They didn’t dare think of it before, but now as each swell, and the God Slaying Alliance’s silence, they had started coveting the core!
This is an absolute cultivation Holy Land, who isn’t greedy, who isn’t tempted?
So over the years, the God Slaying Alliance has always been low-key, quietly plotting, fearing backlash!
"So what? I’m already prepared!" Xin Lifeng gritted his teeth and said.
He was indeed prepared for the backlash!
"Of course, of course, of course! You must have this preparation, otherwise, you’d truly be fools!" Lu Xiaobu laughed.
But then, his words grew soft, almost with a hypnotic feel: "But, is it worth it? If you aren’t afraid my death will cause backlash, then why fear the survival of a weak, dilapidated co-lord of just four cities?"
"Nothing more disproportionate than this!"
"Even if I wanted to stir things up! So what? Any of you at the Out-of-Body Stage, or even you, could silently raze me, and my four cities to the ground!"
"Isn’t it?"
"So, what exactly are you worried about?"
These incredibly gentle words came in waves...
Ultimately, Xin Lifeng released his grip, his murderous intent dissipating!
He knew, once again, this demon had convinced him, but he couldn’t help being convinced, just like all the times before!
This demon had thoroughly figured out all his inner bottom lines!
