When Nimble Snake heard Wu Chijin say that the Three Extremes had reappeared and had entered the Crescent Moon's territory, Nimble Snake did not know what to say. He could only instinctively ask Wu Chijin,"How do you know it's the Three Extremes?"”
In fact, Nimble Snake had wanted to ask what the Solitary Three looked like, but this was no small matter, and he couldn't joke about it.
"Master, I hope you can go down the mountain with me to help me confirm it again. Other than confirming the true identity of San Jue Gu, I also need Master's guidance on how to deal with this matter.”
"What should we do? Is something bothering you?" Nimble Snake was quite confused by Wu Chijin's question. If it was to reconfirm the identity of San Jue Gu, it would be understandable. But how should he deal with San Jue Gu? Was there any room for hesitation?
" Because this San Jue Gu is only a ten-year-old child. At present, it seems that he was sent to the Crescent Moon Kingdom like a leopard cat changing its crown prince. He himself knows nothing about the whole thing, and of course, he doesn't know that one day, his hot blood will be used to destroy the Crescent Moon Mountain.”Wu Chijin explained silently, a faint look of compassion on his face.
"I can understand your thoughts. Ever since you had a daughter, I can feel that your heart has softened. This also makes your shrewdness and ability more human.”Spirit Snake patted Wu Chijin's shoulder.
Nimble Snake continued,"However, have you ever thought that one day, we might have to sacrifice even more lives to prevent that from happening? Or perhaps, we can't stop that matter, and it will eventually lead to the destruction of Crescent Mountain, which will then bring disaster to the countries in the mountains.”
The Spirit Snake continued,"We are selfish because of the Heaven Connecting Stone, the Crescent Moon Mountain, or the countries in the mountains. We are selfish because we want to avoid more slaughter and death. We are not selfish."”
Although Nimble Snake said that, his heart was actually softer than Wu Chijin's. However, he had to question Wu Chijin at this moment because he had to guide Wu Chijin to consider the entire matter more thoroughly.
After hearing Spirit Snake's words, Wu Chijin could feel that his master and he had the same idea about the interests. However, if he only considered the interests, he didn't need to come all the way here. He just needed to deal with San Jue Gu on the spot. At least, it was easy to do this now.
"Master, it's naturally not just about the interests that make me feel conflicted. First of all, do you think we should end a child's life at will just to protect ourselves? Who gave us this power? Who said that this child was cheap because of his fate?
Moreover, Master, you should go and see that child. This child is completely different from the Three Extremes you imagined. He was passionate and curious about life, and he was friendly to the people around him. Moreover, I saw a rare talent in his eyes.”
When Nimble Snake heard Wu Chijin's words, the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up. He thought to himself that after decades of experience, his disciple had become even warmer and kinder. He was completely different from the domineering and domineering disciple he had when he had left the mountain after completing his studies.
Wu Chijin continued,"Since the opponent had meticulously set up a trap to send this child to the Crescent Country, he must have left something behind. He wanted to pour this child's heart and blood on the Heaven Receiving Stone. There are still many processes and connections in the process. This is definitely not something that can be settled by sending the Three Deadly Lives to the Crescent Country."
I had to figure out the enemy's background through this child. At present, I had no idea who was so hostile to the Crescent Moon Mountain. Even during the 30-year war with the Wanshui Kingdom, their goal was only to seize the land and resources. They weren't targeting the Crescent Moon Mountain or even the Heaven Connecting Stone.
This time, his opponent had brought along Whitty's carriage, Midnight Song, and Asura Manor to spearhead the attack. He had even tried every means possible to find the rare Solitary Three. One could imagine his ability and determination.”
The spirit snake agreed with Wu Chijin's words. It might be easy to kill this child, but what about the future? What other methods would the enemy hiding behind us use to deal with Crescent Mountain?
"Indeed, finding a way to figure out who the opponent is is more important than dealing with San Jue. Since we all know that this child is the Three Extremes, as long as we are careful, it won't be so easy for him to climb the Crescent Mountain.”Nimble Snake replied.
Wu Chijin nodded and continued,"Actually, what I'm more worried about is that there must be spies in the Crescent Country or even on the Crescent Mountain." Only the people on the mountain knew about the relationship between the Heaven-connecting Stone and the Solitary Three. Even in the Crescent Country, few people had heard of it. Moreover, they were so confident that they only sent a guard commander with average martial arts and intelligence to escort the Solitary Three. This was a rare killing weapon that could only be seen once in a hundred years. If they did not have a foolproof arrangement along the way, they would definitely not dare to do so.
Also, how were they going to reach the Heaven Connecting Stone in the future? "Even I have lived in the Crescent Mountain for decades, but I have never had the chance to see the Heaven Connecting Stone. If there were no spies in the Crescent Mountain, the Three Extremes would only be an ordinary child. He would not be able to be a killing weapon.
If he wanted to get to the bottom of this, the child could not die. Once he died, the connection behind him would be broken. If the enemy is still there, they can still wait for an opportunity to make a move without San Jue Gu. Perhaps they are looking for the next San Jue Gu or something else. If we can only passively wait for the enemy to make a move and have them reveal a flaw or give themselves away, it will be too passive for us.”
As Wu Chijin spoke of this series of doubts, Spirit Snake could only nod his head repeatedly. Although he was Wu Chijin's teacher, he had lived in seclusion on Crescent Mountain for many years. His knowledge and strategies were not as good as Wu Chijin's. Naturally, Wu Chijin had his reasons for these doubts.
"Since there are so many reasons not to let the Three Absolutes die alone, what are you hesitating about?”Nimble Snake was puzzled by Wu Chijin's hesitation.
"Because there are too many difficulties. First of all, in order to lure the enemy into contacting the Three Extremes or setting up a trap, we can't let the enemy know that we already know about the existence of the Three Extremes. However, the problem is that we don't know how many enemies are hiding around us. If we don't keep our mouths shut, we will reveal the secrets of heaven.
Just now, on the way up the mountain, I was still annoyed that I had ordered the sixteen-colored desserts and energy-nourishing tea to be prepared for San Jue Gu. Wasn't this telling the enemy that I had already sensed something strange? In this way, the enemy would definitely be on guard.”
"Don't regret what has already happened. Just focus on solving future problems. Have you told anyone else about the Three Unparalleled Solitary Demons?”Nimble Snake said.
"Other than Master, no one else knows.”Wu Chijin replied.
"How about this? The best way is to not let anyone else know except you and me. I'll go down the mountain with you to solve this matter. You're responsible for finding the mastermind behind the scenes, and I'm responsible for not letting the Three Absolutes take a step out of line.”Nimble Snake suggested.
Wu Chijin shook his head and said," If we have to hide this from everyone, this is a matter that concerns the entire Crescent Moon Mountain and all the countries in the mountains. Once we lose control of the situation, we master and disciple cannot bear this responsibility.”
Nimble Snake pondered for a moment before asking in a low voice,"If only a few Mountain Chieftains knew about this, I believe that the other three Mountain Chieftains would definitely not leak this information."”
"Master, if there is a spy on the Crescent Moon Mountain, what kind of identity does he have? If I didn't have the chance to get close to the Heaven Receiving Stone, and this person could destroy it, I'm afraid there are no more than ten people on the mountain who are suspects.
If one were to guess who the mole was, this disciple felt that the higher the status of the person, the more suspicious it would be. And the Four Mountain Chieftains were currently the people with the highest status in the Crescent Moon Mountain.”Wu Chijin also lowered his voice as he said this. After all, such speculations were appalling.
Wu Chijin continued,"Master, try to think about it. If we tell the four Mountain Chieftains about San Jue Gu today, what would the Kairong Mountain Chieftain's reaction be?" How would Mountain Lord Jadeshine react? How will the Inferno Mountain Master react?"
Nimble Snake closed his eyes. He had been with these old fellows for nearly a hundred years, so he already knew who would react the same way.
The gentle and casual Mountain Chieftain of Kairong would definitely follow everyone's decision and not express any opinions. The fiery and upright Raging Fire Mountain Master would definitely eliminate all evils and would never allow such a killing weapon to exist in the world. The cautious Yuhui Mountain Lord would rather seal off the mountain for self-defense than lure the enemy in and increase his own danger.
Nimble Snake knew that the four Mountain Chieftains had been living in peace for the past few decades. Naturally, Crescent Moon Mountain had always been peaceful and peaceful. However, this was a matter of life and death. The other three Mountain Chieftains would not have no objections. Thus, he could understand Wu Chijin's hesitation.
"Alright, press this part first. What's the difficulty?”Nimble Snake asked.
"The opponent used Prince Baiyu's identity to send San Jue Gu to the Crescent Country. In other words, Prince Baiyu is not someone we can hide or restrain. The Seven Colors Kingdom can send people to take him away at any time, or he can go wherever he wants.
But how could we just watch a Three Extremes walking around in front of us?”
"Borrowing? What does that mean?" Nimble Snake asked curiously.
" The Seven-Color Nation was suddenly struck by an epidemic at the beginning of this year, and the original Crown Prince died as a result. The new Young Master who visited the Crescent Nation this time is only twelve years old. He has never appeared in public before, so no one knows this new Crown Prince. The opponent took advantage of this opportunity and replaced the new Crown Prince with this child of the Three Absolutes.”
"In that case, the Seven Color Nation's diplomatic mission was also bribed by the opponent?”Nimble Snake asked.
"The Seven Color Nation's diplomatic mission has been wiped out by the assassins. Other than the fake crown prince, there's only one guard left. The leader of the guards was an old guard of the Seven Color Kingdom's diplomatic mission. He had accompanied the royal family to visit the Crescent Country many times in the past, which was why the Shu Li Pavilion believed that the person he brought was the new crown prince of the Seven Color Kingdom.”
"Then how did you find out that this child was fake and that he was a three-way orphan?”Nimble Snake suddenly discovered this suspicious point.
"This disciple is just holding Prince White Feather's forehead as a routine. I can sense that this child is a Heaven's End, Earth's End, and Human's End. I've seen the birth characters, five elements, Yin and Yang of all the kings and princes of the countries in the mountains. Even if I can't remember all of them, I can at least confirm that they don't have the fate of a Three End Lonely.”Wu Chijin said with certainty.
"Are you sure it's really San Jue Gu?”Nimble Snake continued to ask.
"Disciple has already confirmed many things when performing the forehead touching ceremony. At least for now, I am still certain. However, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I hope that Master can make a trip and help me confirm it again. Perhaps after his master confirmed that this child was not, there would be no need to worry about anything.”
"No problem. When are we leaving?”The old but strong Nimble Snake wanted to leave.
"Let's go now. We don't have much time.”Wu Chijin immediately replied.
Wu Chijin continued,"However, there's another difficulty, and it's also the biggest difficulty. That is, what reason do I have to use to keep this child on Crescent Mountain? On the one hand, he had to be able to watch over them, and on the other hand, he had to be able to lure the snake out of its hole…”
"This, let's wait until we confirm San Jue's identity before thinking about it. Since this question can stump you, let alone your master. Let's move now and think of a way as we walk.
I don't feel at ease with such a big problem in the Crescent Country. If it's really as you said, and there's an enemy inside, then the trouble will be really big.”With that, Nimble Snake led Wu Chijin out.
Walking out of the house, Spirit Snake called Jin Lingzi over and gave him some instructions. Then, he asked Qingfeng and Keren to prepare a few simple belongings and went down the mountain.
