From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS - Chapter 310
310 /don’t need too much evidence for my actions
On the other side.
Marquis northcloud had also received kou ziping’s message.
Yan caizhe has indeed put a good label on me. Could it be that if my North cloud Manor can’t send out a Grandmaster of arrays, it would mean that I, Xiao chengfeng, am not loyal to the great Zhao!
Marquis northcloud shook his head and laughed when he read the report in his hand.
Such a method.
Actually, it was fine to just take a look.
He could also see from this that the Imperial court really did not intend to delay any further.
Soon after.
…..
Marquis northcloud walked out of the study room. There were guards standing on both sides of the door.
When they saw Marquis northcloud, the two guards bowed and saluted. “Greetings, Lord Marquis!”
“Send a message to the other generals and have them discuss this matter in the main hall!”
“Yes!”
The two guards accepted the order and retreated.
It didn’t take long for everyone who had received the news to rush to Marquis northcloud’s residence.
In the main hall.
Dressed in a green and white robe, Marquis northcloud sat there like a refined scholar. On his left and right were his generals and left and right arms.
After everyone had arrived.
Marquis northcloud passed on the information in his hand and said, “”This is a message from thousand mountains Prefecture. Take a look.”
While they were talking.
The information had already been circulated.
There wasn’t much content in the report, only a few hundred words.
To them, a few hundred words of content could be memorized with just a glance or two.
Very quickly.
The intelligence returned to Marquis northcloud’s hands.
After a moment of silence.
according to the intelligence, ” zang Hailong said in a deep voice, ” I’m afraid the Imperial court wants to take advantage of Gu Changqing’s unstable rear to send troops to wipe him out in one fell swoop.
However, the problem now is, with our relationship with the sky origin sect, will we be able to invite this Grandmaster?”
When he mentioned Qin shujian …
He used the word ‘please’.
In this regard.
However, no one showed any strange expression.
A formation path Grandmaster was also worthy of the word ‘please’.
The words fell.
The middle-aged scholar, Feng Wende, said,”Gu Changqing sent someone to assassinate the array Grandmaster, but Yuan sect sent a mutant to thousand mountains Prefecture, which caused him a lot of trouble.
Gu Changqing’s rear was unstable, and the main reason was because of Yuan sect.
Under such circumstances, the two sides were already in a situation where neither side would rest until the other was dead.
If there’s a chance, Gu Changqing will definitely destroy the yuan sect. By the same logic, I’m afraid that the Grandmaster of arrays doesn’t want Gu Changqing to have a chance to turn the tables.”
At this point.
He looked at Marquis northcloud’s expression and said with a faint smile, “”To be honest, the relationship between the Marquis and the sky origin sect is not bad. If the Marquis were to ask, the possibility of the Grandmaster rejecting him would not be high.”
Marquis northcloud’s residence had cooperated with Yuan sect many times.
The relationship between the two of them was naturally extraordinary.
Even if Marquis Qian Shan didn’t make a move against Yuan sect, it was unlikely that the other party would reject Marquis North cloud’s request.
It was also for this reason.
That was why Marquis Qian Shan had thought of the reason why he had struck first and gotten rid of Qin shujian earlier.
Unfortunately …
In the end, not only did the assassination fail, but he also got himself into trouble.
Looking at everyone’s discussion.
Marquis northcloud did not say anything.
After a while.
When the main hall gradually quieted down, he said with a calm expression, ” Gu Changqing is able to dispatch two grandmasters of arrays. The force behind him is definitely not to be underestimated. If I’m not wrong, it should be the demon clan.
demon race!?
Many people’s expressions changed drastically when they heard this.
Obviously.
The words “demon race” had a great impact on them.
Apart from Feng Wende, who looked normal, not many of the others could remain calm.
At this moment.
Feng Wende also nodded. we’ve been sending people to investigate the power behind Gu Changqing, but we’ve lost a lot of people. According to the information we’ve obtained, we’ve lost a lot of people.
The power behind the other party was very likely to be the demon race.
After all, only the demon race can make Gu Changqing so determined to rebel and not fear the power of the human Emperor.”
The monster race had been one of the top races since ancient times.
However, after the demon Emperor was defeated …
The demon race had been keeping a low profile for thousands of years and was only active in the endless Mountains.
However, the low profile of the demon race did not mean that they were weak.
Soon after.
Feng Wende continued, ” in order to deal with Gu Changqing, we have to face the demonic forces behind him. Yan caizhe’s actions are equivalent to pushing our North cloud Manor to the front. This is something that the Marquis must be wary of.
a war is not something that one or two people can control. Since Yan caizhe has spoken, then I shall grant him his wish. Marquis northcloud’s expression was gentle. He immediately shifted his gaze to Xiao Hong and said, ” tomorrow, you will go to Mount Liang and invite that Grandmaster of array to come.
“This old servant will follow your orders.”
in addition, you should all make preparations. Since the Imperial court is going to make a move on Gu Changqing, it won’t be long before they need reinforcements from all sides. It’s just a matter of time.
“We will follow your orders!”
“All of you, disperse!”
Marquis northcloud stood up and left the main hall.
The remaining people looked at each other, then stood up and left.
In the backyard of Marquis northcloud’s residence.
Marquis northcloud was sitting in a Pavilion surrounded by a lotus pond. The Lotus flowers bloomed day and night regardless of the season. The pond water was so clear that fish could be seen swimming in it. Only a stone bridge led to the shore.
Inside the pavilion.
Marquis northcloud was the only exception.
There was another person sitting there.
“Lord Marquis, are we really going to help the Imperial court eliminate Gu Changqing?” Feng Wende no longer had a smile on his face as he spoke with a solemn expression.
“Exterminating rebels is what we need to do. What’s there to consider?”
Marquis northcloud picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. Then, he stood up and looked at the Lotus in the pond with a faint smile on his face.
…..
Feng Wende looked at the other party’s back and didn’t reply for a while.
After a long time.
As if he had decided on something, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “”Lord Marquis, the human Emperor is now old, and the great Zhao has been at war all these years. Once the human Emperor Falls, the world will be in chaos.
At that time, it will be a situation where all the Dukes will rise up and fight for the world.”
“What are you trying to say?” Marquis northcloud still didn’t turn around. He stood by the pavilion with his hands behind his back and looked at the pond without shifting his gaze.
Seeing this.
Feng Wende immediately stood up and walked to Marquis northcloud’s back. He then said respectfully, “”The Marquis has ruled the North cloud Manor for hundreds of years and has won the hearts of the people. As long as the human Emperor passes away, he can raise his arm and call for everyone to respond.
If we attack Gu Changqing now, we will inevitably lose our strength, which will be disadvantageous for us to dominate.”
“And …”
Gu Changqing is attracting the attention of the Imperial court. It’s a good time for us to recuperate and accumulate our strength. It’ll be the best opportunity after the death of the human Emperor.
Finished speaking.
Feng Wende bowed.
After a long time.
Marquis northcloud returned to his senses and looked at Feng Wende, who was bowing. He said indifferently, “”You mean, you want me to rebel?”
“I wouldn’t dare!” Feng Wende continued to bow and sincerely said, “”It’s just that the human Emperor’s death is inevitable. Now that chaos has arisen in the world, it’s all thanks to the human Emperor’s suppression that it hasn’t caused any major turmoil.
However, Gu Changqing dared to rebel, and the renhuang had not suppressed him so far, which showed the weakness of the Imperial court.
Under such circumstances, the Imperial court was already an arrow at the end of its flight.
When the human Emperor passes away, the world will be divided. Even if Lord Marquis has no intention of rebelling, I presume you don’t want to see the world in chaos!”
“Get up!”
“Thank you, Lord Marquis!” Hearing this, Feng Wende finally stood up.
At this moment.
Marquis North cloud had already turned around again. He looked at the pond and revealed a meaningful smile. do you really think that the Emperor is old and doesn’t have the capital to suppress the world? you’ve underestimated that person.
When he said this, he had already retracted his gaze from the pond and turned around to look at Feng Wende.
even with the support of the demon race, Gu Changqing still hid in thousand mountains Prefecture and didn’t come out. Do you really think that you can stop the Joint Forces of the demon race and Gu Changqing with just Yan caizhe? ”
if Gu Changqing really wants to take over thousand mountains Prefecture, he has a chance. But he’s still hiding in a corner. He’s just testing the Imperial court.
As for Marquis thousand mountains …
Marquis northcloud also understood.
Even though the matter of the Outlanders had stirred up chaos in the rear, it was actually just a small fight, and it couldn’t shake the foundation at all.
In his opinion.
Based on the power of Marquis Qian Shan and the demon race, if they really fought, Yan caizhe and the others would not be their match.
The reason why he hadn’t done anything yet …
It was because of the existence of the human Emperor.
It was true that the human Emperor’s lifespan was approaching its end!
But the other party had not truly died.
As long as he was in power.
Even if the demons wanted to wrestle with the Imperial court, they would have to consider whether they could afford the price.
Therefore-
Up until now, the monster race had not truly shown themselves, only helping in secret.
As for Marquis thousand mountains …
According to Marquis northcloud’s guess, the other party must have prepared a backup plan.
The current rebellion.
He was just testing how much power the Imperial court had left.
Hearing this, Feng Wende’s heart trembled again.
It was obvious.
On this issue, Marquis North cloud saw further than he did.
Marquis northcloud turned a blind eye to this and said with a faint smile, “”Gu Changqing is not the only one who has his eyes on the great Zhao. He was the first one to jump out.
This time, the North cloud Manor has taken action to comply with the Imperial court and to see if we can force the monster race behind Gu Changqing out.”
Many people wanted to see it.
What kind of methods were hidden behind Marquis Qian Shan?
Marquis North cloud didn’t mind taking the lead and helping Marquis Qian Shan under the Imperial court’s edict. He could also force Marquis Qian Shan to test his limits.
“I was confused!”
“No, you’re not. I’d like to know who sent you here.”
“Lord Marquis, What do you mean!?” Feng Wende was puzzled.
The smile on Marquis northcloud’s face faded a little. He looked at the other party’s puzzled expression and calmly said, “”It’s fine if you don’t want to admit it, but I don’t need much evidence to do things.”
Buzzzzzz!
With that, Feng Wende’s expression suddenly changed. His body immediately shot out like an arrow from a bow, and he fled into the void without a second thought.
