Sikong Changfeng was stunned.
Although Snow Moon City was the number one city in the Great Li Jianghu, it was only a part of the Jianghu.
As the highest intelligence agency in the Great Song, it was understandable that the Six Fan School had some clues that other forces did not know.
So he asked,"Who is controlling this underground river?"”
Lu Chen then said," At first, I also thought that the underground river was just a mysterious assassin organization. However, when I was working in the Six Fan School, I accidentally saw information about the underground river!”
"Back then, Yi Shuihan founded Shadow Sect to help the founding emperor of Great Li, Xiao Yi, establish his country. Shadow Sect has been secretly protecting the Imperial City ever since.”
"As the saying goes, a chivalrous man uses his martial arts to violate the rules. The powers of the martial world at that time were complicated and difficult to control. It even had a huge impact on the stability of the imperial court.”
"Thus, Shadow Sect separated the Su family, which was good at sword arts, the Xie family, which was good at saber arts, and the Mu family, which was good at medical skills and deception, from the sect. They secretly established the assassin organization, Dark River, to curb and balance the powers of the martial world.”
"To put it bluntly, the people behind the underground river are neither an assassin organization that is paid to do things, nor are they the Jianghu forces that obey the orders of the princes. They are the spies of the Dali Imperial Court in the Jianghu.”
"When the Emperor of Dali gives an order to eradicate a certain force in the martial world, he will send the imperial edict to the Yellow Spring Pawnshop. At that time, An He will take action!”
Lu Chen explained in detail, revealing all the details of the underground river.
After finishing his words, the shock in Sikong Changfeng's heart was still at its peak.
According to what he said, this time the underground river attacked Li Han Yi, it was not just a fight for the prince.
The Emperor of Dali was well aware of this and had tacitly approved of this operation.
Emperor Ming De of Great Li wanted to eradicate Snow Moon City?
If this was really the case, then the Snow Moon City could be said to be doomed this time.
In front of the tea table, although Sikong Changfeng was shocked by the true identity of the person behind the underground river, he quickly began to come up with a new way to deal with it.
If the underground river was really acting on the orders of the Dali Imperial Court to attack Li Hanyi, then it meant that the position of the Crown Prince was already in sight.
The sixth prince Xiao Se had probably been abandoned by the Emperor, and Xiao Chong was the most likely successor to the throne.
Right now, Snow Moon City was already an arrow on the bowstring and had no choice but to shoot. Regardless of Dark River's identity, a battle with him was still inevitable.
Sikong Changfeng, who couldn't think of a way to break out of this situation, couldn't help but rub his slightly swollen head.
On the other hand, Lu Chen was still drinking his tea endlessly, as if he did not care about what was happening at the moment.
This made Sikong Changfeng somewhat annoyed. Originally, he had always wanted to probe this brat's capabilities, but he didn't expect that he would throw out such a big problem, and yet he was leisurely and unconcerned. No matter what, after the wedding, he would also be a member of Snow Moon City, so it was better to think about the future of this city!
Hence, Sikong Changfeng could not help but ask,""Brat, you look so casual. Do you have any way to deal with it?”
Lu Chen was puzzled. I came to the 16th floor just to lie flat, but you pestered me with questions. After asking me for half a day, I'm numb. Now you're asking me what to do. Are you the City Lord or am I the City Lord?
Hearing this, Lu Chen threw down his teacup and comfortably found a sunny place to lie down. He said,"Since City Lord Sima has already invited all the heroes in the world to gather here, you must already have a plan in mind, so why ask me?”
Sikong Changfeng thought to himself, This brat is most likely trying to take revenge on me for testing him previously. He hasn't even married my second senior brother and he's already playing tricks on me.
Although he was unhappy in his heart, Sikong Changfeng was helpless against him.
After all, he did not trust him in the first place. The kid was still young, so it was inevitable that he would have a temper.
Therefore, Sikong Changfeng came to Lu Chen with a cup of tea and handed it to him with a smile.
"Sigh, you don't understand my difficulties. The City Lord of Baili City is currently out searching for an immortal and has gone missing. It's not like you don't understand the personality of your fiancée, the Second City Lord. Everything she does depends on a sword in her hand. If the hidden river is really backed by the entire Dali Imperial Court, then Snow Moon City might not be able to match it!”
However, Lu Chen ignored him and turned a blind eye.
Sikong Changfeng continued to complain. Seeing that Lu Chen was still unmoved, he suddenly had an idea and continued.
"Now that all the heroes have sent out invitations, not only are the heroes of the world gathered here, but the other dynasties have also joined in. Snow Moon City is already the center of the storm, and if we lose at this critical moment, we will definitely be doomed. At that time, Second Senior Brother Li Han Yi and I will also live and die with Snow Moon City.”
Damn it, Lu Chen, who was lazily basking in the sun, couldn't help but curse in his heart when he heard this. He actually brought up Li Hanyi to play the emotional card. This Spear Immortal was indeed famous for being scheming.
With that thought, Lu Chen flipped over and sat up. He unceremoniously took the tea that Sikong Changfeng handed over and drank it with a displeased expression.
Who was Sikong Changfeng? He was the Spear Immortal, the third city lord of Snow Moon City.
He was someone who could shake the entire martial arts world of Dali with just a stomp of his foot.
Now, he was actually serving tea to a young boy. The other party seemed to be very unhappy after drinking it. If this situation was seen by outsiders, their teeth would definitely fall out of shock.
However, Sikong Changfeng didn't care about his own identity at all. He continued to smile and said,"The current situation is dangerous. Why don't you tell me what you think?”
Lu Chen, who couldn't stand the disturbance, said bluntly in order to be able to hack comfortably,"There's no good way now. I might as well be like my fiancée and think with the sword in my hand!”
Lu Chen took a teacup and a teapot and put them together.
He then pointed at the teacup and said," This teacup is like Snow Moon City, while the teapot is the imperial court of the Great Li behind the underground river. There are four guardians and five supervisors in Tianqi City, and each of them is an existence that shocks the martial world."”
"They also have countless experts under them, and the Li Empire has hundreds of thousands of cavalry. With such a huge gap, no matter how scheming you were, it would be useless!”
Sikong Changfeng was puzzled and hurriedly asked,"What do you mean by this? Don't tell me you want our Snow Moon City to sit still and wait for death?"”
"The world says that you are the best at stratagems, Spear Immortal. Why are you so stubborn about this? Let me ask you, if you were my fiancée, Li Han Yi, what would you do?”Lu Chen said helplessly.
"Break it with one sword!" Sikong Changfeng said resolutely.
Lu Chen clapped his hands." That's right!”
As he spoke, Lu Chen tapped two fingers on the teacup. Under the control of his True Qi, the teacup collided with the teapot.
In an instant, the teapot shattered, and the remaining tea spilled all over the table.
"Just as I said, all the schemes and plots in the world are ultimately unable to defeat the absolute suppression of strength. Strength is the foundation of everything. Right now, Snow Moon City is full of treacherous clouds, and only by breaking them with one sword can the clouds be opened and the moon be seen.”
Hearing this, Sikong Changfeng fell into deep thought. However, he was still a little puzzled.
"Since you think that power is the root of everything, why do you spend so much effort to understand the various things in the underground river?”
Lu Chen waved his sleeve and swept away the mess on the table.
"The reason why I understand all this is to understand the operating laws of everything in this world so that I won't be a muddle-headed person."”
"If the direction is wrong and the power is used in the wrong place, then it will be eternal damnation.”
"Therefore, we must see through their schemes and see through them clearly. Only then can we break through them with force.”
" It is precisely because of this that I understand that the final competition does not depend on the schemes and schemes. We only need to know everything clearly. In the end, speaking with strength was the essence of this world.”
