319: Empty Buildings and Transfer RisksIn the suburbs, on a government road somewhere, a horse-drawn carriage was speeding past.Sitting in the carriage were the master and servant Tang San and Tai Tan.
Tai Tan lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the environment outside the car, and said with a smile: "Young Master, we are getting closer and closer to Longxing City. It will only take half a day for us to reach the residence of the Yu family."
Tang San nodded, but his face showed a myriad of emotions.
Before leaving, Tang Xiao told him that the Haotian Sect owed a lot to the four major families. Moreover, when the Spirit Hall attacked the Haotian Sect, the four major families suffered heavy losses in order to buy them time to evacuate.
On the other hand, the Haotian Sect not only did not discuss the issue of compensation afterwards, they even had no contact with the four major families again, becoming a coward.
Theoretically, the four major families were not officially separated from the Haotian Sect. However, the Haotian Sect was not fair in what happened back then, so it was difficult for the Haotian Sect to force the four major families with single attributes to return.
While thinking, Tai Tan placed his heavy hand on his shoulder, "Young Master, don't worry about the past. After all, you didn't ask them to join the Haotian Sect, but to re-establish a family under your command."
Tang San turned his head, stunned for a moment, and then said: "Senior Tai Tan, I still need to practice. With my current strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to play a role in the next continental situation."
Before he could finish, Tai Tan waved his hand and said, "Young Master, there is no need to say more. With a few of us old guys here, the Tang Sect will definitely develop step by step. You can rest assured about this."
"But young master, are you really determined to make hidden weapons the mainstay of the sect's industry? Wouldn't that be too one-sided? Our four major families all have their own skills. How about expanding a few more ways to make money?"
Titan's concerns are not unfounded.
Without the financial sponsor, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Tang Sect would no longer have a regular seller of hidden weapons, and it would be difficult for the Tang Sect to sustain its operations in the future.
Tang San's original intention of establishing the Tang Sect was to promote the development of hidden weapons in this alien world. If there were no hidden weapons, what would be the meaning of establishing the Tang Sect?
"We'll discuss this later. Let's recruit the other three families first."
"As for hidden weapons, we may not have to stick to selling them to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Perhaps, we can try to sell them to the armies of the Tiandou Empire or the Xingluo Empire."
Titan slapped his forehead and said, "This is a good suggestion. But young master, there are still two problems before us. First, how can we contact the royal families of the two empires? Second, how can we ensure that the hidden weapon technology will not be leaked in the future?"
And the most important point he didn't say.
Since Tang Xiao and others have decided to support Dai Mubai to become the next Xingluo Emperor.
After the feud with the Spirit Hall is settled in the future, the two empires will inevitably move towards confrontation again.
By then, the Tiandou Empire's army, which controls hidden weapons, will probably be no weaker than the Xingluo army in terms of overall strength.
Tang San smiled confidently at this.
After all, his mechanical hidden weapons cannot be reloaded by outsiders, and he can upgrade the internal safety device by then, so there is no need to worry about them being cracked.
When that time really comes, the hidden weapons and built-in arrows in the hands of the Tiandou army will become a pile of scrap metal once they have been fired.
…
Half a day later, the carriage drove into Longxing City.
Titan had come to the Yu clan more than once and was familiar with their base.
Driving to the Yu clan's residence, Tai Tan saw that the door was closed and there was no movement from inside. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. "It's noon now, it shouldn't be so quiet. Aren't they eating?"
Even if the Yu clan received a big commission and went out to work, at least some disciples would have to stay in the family to watch over them, right?
Tang San responded: "Senior Tai Tan, Longxing City is located in the south. Maybe they eat earlier and it's lunch time now?"
The weather in the south is generally hotter than in the north, so it is normal to have the habit of taking a nap.
Titan shook his head.
He was very familiar with the habits of the Yu clan, and it was unlikely that they would rest at this time.
After thinking it over, he decided to ask Niu Gao directly, so he knocked on the door of the mansion and said loudly: "Old Rhino, the door is closed so tightly, are you trying to keep me out?"
One second, two seconds. Then a minute passed and there was no sound from the mansion.
Titan's brows gradually furrowed.
This situation was not intentional on Niu Gao's part, but rather the Yu clan might have been attacked.
Without time to think, he suddenly exerted force with his fists and smashed the door of the Yu clan's mansion with one punch.
"Young Master, follow me. If you encounter any danger, put your own safety first." Titan reminded in a deep voice.
Tang San nodded heavily, secretly thinking that something was not good.
This situation made him wonder whether the Spirit Hall had also launched an attack on the Yu clan!
After the two rushed into the mansion, they stopped immediately.
There were no signs of damage in the mansion, let alone bloodstains or smell of blood.
Among them, the door of each house was locked from the outside, and it was obvious that the disciples of the Yu clan had moved out of here on their own initiative.
"This..." Tang San was dumbfounded.
Tai Tan had vowed that this year's gathering of the four major families would be held at the residence of the Yu clan. What was the meaning of the other party moving out of their original residence at this moment?
Of course, it is not ruled out that the Yu clan sent someone to inform them, and because they set out earlier, the two parties may have missed each other.
Titan smiled and said, "Young Master, don't worry. We old brothers once made an agreement. Please wait a moment. When the old rhino moves out, he will definitely leave a letter."
As he spoke, he walked towards a building in the backyard of the mansion.
Judging from the architectural layout, this is a place for storing groceries.
Titan took out the old furniture one by one and searched for a while. In the secret compartment of one of the furniture, he found the letter that Niu Gao had left for him.
He held up the brand new letter and said with a smile, "Young Master, we usually have a backup plan. This letter was left by the old rhino, and it must have explained their next destination."
Tang San nodded and consciously avoided the sight.
After all, this letter was left by Niu Gao for Titan. It was a little secret between them and he had no intention of snooping.
Titan opened the letter with a smile on his face, but suddenly, the smile on his face froze.
After waiting for a while and seeing that he didn't respond, Tang San took the initiative to ask: "Senior Tai Tan, what's wrong?"
Tai Tan's expression was uncertain as he handed the letter to Tang San.
There was only a short line in the letter.
Niu Gao said: The Yu clan, the Po clan and the Min clan went to Tiandou City together.
"What are they going to do in Tiandou City?" Tang San was puzzled.
Tai Tan emphasized: "Young Master, this is a clan migration. Our four major families had discussed it before. Unless we encounter a very big trouble and the family is at risk of being destroyed, we will take the initiative to migrate the entire family."
"Could it be that the three families have encountered threats from the Spirit Hall?" Tang San was shocked at first, then smiled and said, "Senior Tai Tan, isn't this good? They moved to Tian Dou City, aren't they preparing to join the Power Clan?"
Titan hoped so.
But if the whole clan were to join the powerful clan, these three families would certainly inform them in advance.
Moreover, he was familiar with Niu Gao's temperament.
The fact that a chatterbox only leaves a short sentence in a letter speaks volumes.
Therefore, in his opinion, the three major families moved to Tiandou City not to join the Li clan, but to join a large sect. Niu Gao knew his temper, but he didn't say it out loud.
There were originally three major sects near Tiandou City. But now the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family and the Haotian Sect have been destroyed by the Spirit Hall one after another. The only one that still has influence and can win over the three major families is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
"Is this impossible?" Tang San hesitated.
Tai Tan sighed and added: "When the Haotian Sect closed its doors to the world, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect contacted our four major families and wanted to recruit us to become part of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."
"At that time, because the Haotian Sect still had its influence, and Ning Fengzhi had only been in charge of the sect for a short time, the matter was left unresolved. Under the current circumstances, it is possible that Ning Fengzhi will implement his proposal back then."
Although it was just a guess, Titan thought this was the answer.
However, Tang San always had a glimmer of hope in his heart, thinking that the three major families simply went to Tiandou City to avoid the Spirit Hall's reckoning with the Haotian Sect.
Walking out of the gate of the Yu clan's residence, Tang San looked at the building behind him and sighed.
This trip was ultimately a failure for him.
Titan patted his shoulder, signaling him not to worry.
As they were about to leave, a child ran up to them and asked in a childish voice, "Excuse me, are you Grandpa Titan?"
Tai Tan raised his eyebrows and immediately understood. He bent down and smiled, "It's me. Who gave it to you?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The child smiled and said, "It's a grandfather named Yang Wudi who asked me to bring you a message."
Hearing this, Tang San and Tai Tan immediately pricked up their ears.
"Grandpa Yang Wudi said: 'Don't wait any longer. We went to Tiandou City, but not to join you. We went to establish our own sect. Old gorilla, if you don't want to be that guy's lackey, come find us. Otherwise, there's no need to see us again.'"
After saying that, the child made a face at the two of them, then turned around and ran away quickly.
Tang San's eyes flashed, and he was about to chase after him to teach the other party a lesson, but was stopped by Titan.
"Young Master, this is the tone of the old goat. Back then, the old goat's brother was killed by the Spirit Hall, and he has always been brooding over this matter. No wonder he said that."
Tang San breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, the three major families did not join the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, but built their own sects, so there is still room for maneuver in the future.
So he asked, "Senior Tai Tan, have the three major families ever purchased land in Tiandou City?"
Titan shook his head: "No."
"Then how do they go to Tiandou City to establish a sect?"
"I don't know."
Tang San: "."
No matter what, they must hurry back, and it would be best if they could convince the three major families before they started construction.
…
Tiandou City, Ning Tianchen's territory.
Although the disciples of the Yu clan have not arrived yet, Ning Tianchen has already arranged for people to build temporary dormitories for them.
After all, Niu Gao came with his whole family and was exhausted from the journey, so it was not that he had no place to stay.
During this period, the Xiangjia Sect became increasingly high-profile on the mainland, but they turned a deaf ear to the departure of the Yu Clan and seemed not to care at all.
That day, after dealing with the affairs of the sect, Ning Tianchen was just about to relax for a moment when he saw an official from the Prince's Mansion coming to invite someone.
"Count Ning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites you. I hope you can spare some time from your busy schedule to visit the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Chen Huayu and Oscar beside him made faces at him, "Boss (Tianchen), you won't have time to rest now."
Ning Tianchen sighed and followed the official to the Prince's Mansion.
Because of his position as regent, Xue Qinghe went to the palace early in the morning to attend the morning court.
It was not until the evening that Xue Qinghe took a carriage back to the Prince's Mansion.
After exchanging pleasantries, the two entered the study.
Xue Qinghe rubbed his forehead, leaned against the desk, and said with a tired face: "Many people's eyes are focused on me, especially my teacher."
"Every move I make is interpreted by others. As an ally, I need you to help me ascend the throne of the Tiandou Empire."
Ning Tianchen sat at the desk and joked, "Emperor Xue Ye will not live for many days. Since no one can cure him, why take such a risk? Wait quietly, and the power will fall into your hands."
Xue Qinghe (Qian Renxue) was so anxious because Bibi Dong was urging her.
According to Bibi Dong's plan, after taking down the Tiandou Empire, the next step would be to directly launch a war for the unification of the continent.
In addition, Qian Daoliu also urged him to return to the Spirit Hall as soon as possible to accept the inheritance of the Angel God.
Bibi Dong's strength is gradually moving towards the god level. If she cannot inherit the throne of the Angel God to compete with him, the entire Spirit Hall and even the entire continent may fall into an irretrievable situation.
"I still have to deal with Prince Xuexing and Prince Xuebeng before I can let my replacement take this position."
Qian Renxue had secretly cultivated a substitute a long time ago.
This substitute not only learned Xue Qinghe's words and deeds, but also obeyed Qian Renxue's words.
However, this substitute has no political acumen. If Avalanche and Snow Star are left behind, the imperial power will be overthrown sooner or later.
After Ning Tianchen thought for a moment, his expression became serious, "This matter cannot be pushed forward by us, or anyone among us, not even the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."
After a pause, he suggested: "We need a scapegoat, or to transfer the risk."
Xue Qinghe thought for a moment and handed a secret report to Ning Tianchen. "This is what the strong men in the palace saw and heard when they followed Tang Xiao. Let's see if we can transfer the risk to them."
After the battle to destroy the Haotian Sect ended, Qingluan Douluo had been secretly following Tang Xiao.
The report recorded in detail what Tang Xiao said when he met with Yu Xiaogang and others, as well as their subsequent plans.
Ning Tianchen suddenly smiled, "God helps me."
"If I remember correctly, Tang Yuehua has a great influence in the aristocratic circle. Regardless of whether her Yuexuan is closed or not, there must be many nobles who owe her favors."
"Let's arrange for someone to 'return' this favor."
Xue Qinghe ignored his meaning for a moment.
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "You mean, find a way to get Tang Yuehua into the palace, let her connect with Xue Xing's uncle and nephew, and then catch them all in one fell swoop?"
Ning Tianchen nodded first, then shook his head and said, "Yuexuan is closed, Tang Yuehua has lost her power. She is a weak woman who can't practice, she is not our type, there is no need to make a big fuss about her!"
As he spoke, he began to think in his mind.
Not long ago, he learned from Ning Fengzhi that Tang San had come to sell hidden weapons.
Without the support of Ning Fengzhi from the original time and space, Tang San would have been stretched to the limit if he wanted to establish the Tang Sect. In addition, without Ning Fengzhi's tip-off, Tang San now had no idea that Xue Qinghe had anything to do with the Spirit Hall.
If he wants to sell hidden weapons (to establish the Tang Sect), the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is not the only solution, he can also sell them to the Tiandou Empire.
Therefore, they will definitely seize the opportunity to give Tang Yuehua an opportunity to go to the palace to treat Xue Ye.
