Upon hearing this, Sheng Yangzhou remained unruffled, still smiling gently and saying, “This Ye Wushuang truly fails to recognize greatness. He has offended Young Master Qing Wushuang. Our Lingjian Pavilion will inevitably slay him. Allowing Young Master Qing to watch for free, to vent his anger, can be seen as a gesture of respect towards him. Why not?”
Qing Wushuang chuckled and replied, “I see. Inform me when your Lingjian Pavilion is ready to proceed. Whether I attend or not will depend on my mood.”
With a casual wave of his hand, Qing Wushuang turned and walked away.
Sheng Yangzhou and his two companions stood there, their expressions calm.
One of them couldn’t help but remark, “This Qing Wushuang, if it weren’t for his father and grandfather’s significant positions within the Qingyang Hall, he wouldn’t amount to anything, would he?”
The other one also sneered, “Back when the Dongxu Ranking was announced, he was third, and you, Yangzhou, were fourth. He doesn’t seem to care, and he actually thinks he can compete with you!”
Sheng Yangzhou waved his hand and said, “Don’t mind these things. People who act so arrogantly are easier to manipulate.”
The one who had spoken first said, “To be honest, I don’t quite understand why we have to bring along this haughty fellow!”
Sheng Yangzhou smiled and said, “It’s the higher-ups’ intention, but I can guess the general idea……”
“Killing Ye Wushuang is not that simple. This time Ye Wushuang has come out, there must be someone of the Zhaixing state secretly accompanying him.”
“This assassination is also a kind of test, to see how important Ye Wushuang is within the Shengtian Sect.”
“Success would be extremely good.”
“Failure, well, if we could bring along this Qing Wushuang and let him die in the assassination……we could use this opportunity to divert the blame to the Shengtian Sect, which would be enough to make the Qingyang Hall and the Shengtian Sect turn against each other.”
Upon hearing this, the two people standing on either side of Sheng Yangzhou’s eyes brightened.
The assassination is a test, but it cannot be tested in vain. It is also necessary to throw mud at the Shengtian Sect.
In the Central Continent, the top ten top forces, various first-class forces, second-class forces, and third-class forces are intertwined and have complex relationships.
The Shengtian Sect, which has just taken root, if it offends another giant, it will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of survival.
Sheng Yangzhou sighed and couldn’t help but say, “It’s a pity that Xu Ziyin lost to Yin Shenghao. Otherwise, why use these means?”
When a person’s strength and a force’s foundation are enough to annihilate another person and another force, any conspiracy and trickery are useless.
But the Shengtian Sect, because of the existence of Yin Shenghao, even though its foundation is weak now, it makes the Lingjian Pavilion unable to swallow it at once, and can only resort to other methods.
……
In the stone gambling area.
Ye Wushuang and Qing Shiyu continued to wander around with several others.
During this time, Ye Wushuang purchased four more pieces of stone.
Ye Wushuang did not ask the cutting master at the counter to cut open these four pieces of stone directly, but took them away and kept them for himself.
This made Tian Qingyao very puzzled.
It should be known that the cutting masters in the stone gambling area are all old hands who have been immersed in this knife for more than a hundred years and have extraordinary strength.
Cutting is a very important skill.
If an amateur operates, it is very likely to ruin a real gemstone.
However, customers who purchase stone materials have the right to take them away directly. Whether to cut or not is up to themselves. Tian Qingyao can’t say anything about this.
Moreover, these four pieces of stone cost Ye Wushuang as much as 400,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
The two pieces of stone that Ye Wushuang purchased earlier were cut into Dabiepan Dan and Sanyin Qingli Grass, earning 750,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
In one breath, half of it was spent.
Tian Qingyao understood that Ye Wushuang should not be a person who is extravagant and wasteful. There is only one point – Ye Wushuang really has the ability in the stone gambling!
And if these four pieces of stone really cut out something, the value is… inestimable.
Therefore, Ye Wushuang did not choose to cut open directly in the stone gambling area, but prepared to go back and cut the stone in a low-key manner.
Thinking of this, Tian Qingyao gradually became more and more expectant in his heart.
Leaving the stone gambling area, the sky was getting darker. Tian Qingyao invited several people to have dinner in a well-known restaurant and sent them back before leaving.
Tian Shang Lou.
In the room where Ye Wushuang lived.
Qing Shiyu lay lazily on the bed, stretched her waist, and showed her charming posture with her graceful curves.
“After a day of wandering around, I’m more tired than cultivating.”
Qing Shiyu sat up and looked at Ye Wushuang, smiling and saying, “Tian Qingyao seems to care about you a lot!”
“She just represents the attitude of Tianyuan Pavilion.”
Ye Wushuang poured a cup of tea and said indifferently, “This time, Tianyuan Pavilion took out Jiujie Puchang as the reward for the first place on the Dongxu list and took out Taichu Ming Shi for auction. No matter how you look at it, it is forcing Shengtian Sect to take action and forcing me to take action.”
“This matter, they really did it very disgustingly!” Qing Shiyu couldn’t help but say, “It is obvious that they are using the current situation of Shengtian Sect to seek convenience for themselves.”
“Everyone for himself, or perish by the hands of heaven and earth!” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Tianyuan Pavilion and Tianbao Chamber of Commerce are essentially still trading pavilions. They are not quite the same as other forces. Otherwise, their business would not be able to cover the entire Tianyuan Continent!”
“You don’t seem angry at all?” Qing Shiyu couldn’t help but ask.
“How could I not be angry?”
Ye Wushuang pushed open the window and looked outside. The scenery of Tianyuan City was all in sight. Ye Wushuang slowly said, “Using me to make their Dongxu list ranking more lively this time and to seek profits for them, anyone who is used would be very upset.”
“But the Shengtian Sect has just been established. There will be many places to cooperate with Tianyuan Pavilion and Tianbao Chamber of Commerce in the future.”
“We don’t have the qualifications to turn the table now, so we have to sit steadily in our seats until……we can act without having to look at anyone’s face!”
Qing Shiyu couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh, “I thought you would only draw your sword in anger and cut down all sides!”
“So in your eyes, I am so impulsive?” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “In fact, in this world, some things can be endured. If you can’t endure small things, you will mess up big plans. But some things can’t be endured. Even if you know you will die, you can’t give in to things that can’t be endured!”
Qing Shiyu smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about these things. On the Dongxu list, my goal this time is to enter the top ten, and I won’t be worse than you.”
“You can do it. If you master the spiritual technique I taught you well, with your current Dongxu state of seven changes, perhaps the top five is not a problem!”
Qing Shiyu smiled sweetly, and then said, “Okay, okay, the four pieces of stone you bought must be very valuable, right? Let’s cut and see now?”
