Liu Tianji and the others had already gone to summon Wu Tian. Meanwhile, in the Underground World, within the Evil Alliance, Xiang Lingtian looked at a six-year-old girl and nodded. "Good! You’ve done very well. It is said that he who understands the times is a Junjie. None of the other disciples would speak, but you did. Don’t worry, I won’t treat you unfairly."
The six-year-old girl was Lv Mingyue. She, too, had been captured. Fearing for her life, she had immediately sold out Wu Tian and the others. It didn’t matter if the Ginseng Fruit Tree’s disappearance had anything to do with Wu Tian. She would just pin it on someone, anyone, to ensure her own survival.
Now, hearing Xiang Lingtian’s words, her small face lit up with a respectful smile. "It is Mingyue’s honor to serve the Alliance Hierarch."
Xiang Lingtian nodded, then asked, "Who do you think is more powerful, Wu Tian or I?"
As for how powerful Wu Tian truly was, no one knew. To put it simply, anyone who did know was already dead. Xiang Lingtian had no choice but to ask.
Lv Mingyue was startled for a moment before immediately replying, "Of course, the Alliance Hierarch is more powerful! I think the sudden disappearance of the Ginseng Fruit Tree must be related to him. As long as you capture him, Alliance Hierarch, everything will be settled."
Xiang Lingtian nodded, and Fan Yisheng spoke up. "We’ve captured most of the people from Peach Blossom Spring but haven’t found any trace of Wu Tian. As planned, we deliberately let one person escape to inform him."
"A good plan," Xiang Lingtian nodded. "We have to do this to lure Wu Tian out and find out what really happened to the Ginseng Fruit Tree! As Immortal Seekers of the Evil Path, we don’t need hypocritical tactics. We believe in one thing only: those who follow me shall prosper; those who oppose me shall perish!"
Isn’t the goal of Immortal Seekers to pursue immortality and achieve the Dao? Now that the opportunity was right before his eyes, Xiang Lingtian had no intention of missing it.
"Our actions have certainly attracted the attention of the Great Sect by now," Fan Yisheng said. "When we fight Wu Tian, we’ll be the snipe and the clam locked in combat. If we both suffer heavy losses, won’t the Great Sect play the fisherman and reap the rewards?" Fan Yisheng knew that the more crucial the moment, the calmer he needed to be. He felt it was too dangerous to start a war with Wu Tian right now.
Xiang Lingtian scoffed. "How can you get tiger cubs without entering the Tiger’s Den? The fisherman only benefits when the snipe and clam are evenly matched. But we’re different from Wu Tian! We have hostages. Even if the Great Sect wants to take advantage, heh, it will be difficult. We can take down Wu Tian without losing a single soldier!"
"Yes," Fan Yisheng sighed.
"I don’t like it when you sigh. Understand?" Xiang Lingtian said coldly. "Fan Zeng advised Xiang Yu many times. If Xiang Yu had listened, the history of the Dragon Country would not have the Great Han, only our Great Chu! I am different from my ancestor, Xiang Yu. My refusal to listen to you is completely different in nature from his refusal to listen to Fan Zeng. He was stubbornly arrogant! I, on the other hand, am fully confident in my plan!"
"Yes," Fan Yisheng nodded.
At that moment, Fan Yisheng truly understood the agony of Fan Zeng. In the past, Fan Zeng had given Xiang Yu so much advice, yet Xiang Yu rejected all of it. One famous example was the Hongmen Banquet, where Fan Zeng urged him to be ruthless and kill Liu Bang! But Xiang Yu still went against his advice.
Fan Yisheng sighed and left the tent. After he departed, Xiang Lingtian couldn’t help but scoff.
After Xiang Yu’s death, the Xiang Family felt they owed a great debt to the Fan Family. Consequently, for generations, although the Xiang Family were the masters, they always treated the opinions of the Fan Family with the utmost respect. Xiang Lingtian had long been tired of it.
Wu Tian had been away from the corporation for a long time, but its development remained swift thanks to the strategies he had left behind. This must be what they call masterful planning from a thousand miles away, right? For the employees, Wu Tian offering to teach them some tricks was like manna from heaven.
Normally, Liu Tianji would never use a device like a cell phone unless it was something urgent. Did something happen?
