Chapter 1376: That Person At The Top
Guan Hai frowned. "I heard that Long Qi has an innate gift that allows him to see through people and things."
"Hmph! That’s absurd! Even if he really does have that kind of an innate gift, it would still be impossible to find all of those people in just five days," Guan Yun complained.
Guan Tong’s eyes narrowed as he remembered the bizarre scene he had seen play out in the Yinshan Mountains. While at first it had looked like Mo Gaohe had simply suffered from bad luck and that his scheme had failed, it was an absolute fact that Long Qi was not simple. Mo Gaohe had been driven out of the Yinshan Mountains.
Long Qi was not a piece of trash like the rumors claimed, but rather was actually a very well hidden talent.
However, no matter how gifted Long Qi might be, it was still impossible for him to arrest all five traitors who had been in Yinshan City within just.
How on earth had he done it? Was it possible that the White Dragon Clan’s main family was taking action?
Guan Tong was in a terrible mood.
"Brother, don't get impatient. Let's wait to see what Long Qi plans to do next, ok? After all, Yinshan City is in Zhuo Si’s territory, so maybe he was somehow involved," Guan Hai suggested.
Guan Tong's expression instantly changed. "Are you saying that maybe Long Qi wasn’t even the one to find those spies and that it was Zhuo Si all along?”
Guan Yun slapped his thigh. "That’s got to be it! That old fart Zhuo Si’s been in the Yinshan Mountains for so long that it should be impossible to hide anything from him. It wouldn’t be a surprise for him to uncover such things."
"Also, while he appears to be lazy, it’s really just that he doesn’t want to get involved with the outside world. He’s still a part of humanity, as well as one of the Middle Realm’s nine gate masters,” Guan Hai continued.
Guan Tong nodded. "That makes sense. So Zhuo Si borrowed Long Qi's ident.i.ty in order to clean out the local traitors, but why did he use Long Qi?"
"Is there anyone else in the Yinshan District aside from Long Qi who qualifies?" Guan Hai spoke slowly, his eyes showing he was in deep thought.
Guan Tong was surprised by this. "You’re saying he wants to get closer to the White Dragon Clan? But the White Dragon Clan was the reason back then-"
"Big Brother, what happened back then was declared a taboo for everyone, so there's no need to mention anything. Since we’ve already guessed that Zhuo Si was behind this current matter, there’s no need to make any moves. Those traitors are gone," Guan Hai interrupted.
Guan Tong sighed. "Then let’s forget it. Leave him alone."
"Will Zhuo Si keep moving?" Guan Yun asked.
Guan Hai sneered. "He needs to have the ability to do something like that. Is it that easy to gain accomplishments? Is Humility's Gate just a decoration?"
Guan Tong smiled as he spoke, "He was only able to find the traitors in Yinshan City because of how much time he’s spent there. It’s impossible for him to duplicate such a feat elsewhere."
Guan Yun gave a snorted derisively. "It’s better like this, because otherwise we’d have to take care of him."
***
Elsewhere, Yu Chen was looking over a detailed report she had received that carefully described every step of the plan that Mo Gaohe had tried to carry out against Long Qi. She was very familiar with the plan, because she had been the one to design it. Mo Gaohe had been nothing but the implementer. Still, the entire scheme had ended in failure.
Yu Chen had rarely failed to carry out her plans since the time she had started following the Junior Progenitor. This time had been her worst failure, because not only had her plan failed, a counter-plan had been launched against her and revealed her as the puppeteer behind Mo Gaohe. This scheme had been an utter failure.
Yu Chen had never believed in coincidence. She preferred to believe that Lu Yin had deliberately arranged for Mo Gaohe to meet with Unseen Light. Yu Chen was in the habit of seeing the worst possibility.
"He actually even exchanged for the Medal of Righteousness. He’s certainly not stupid." Yu Chen smiled. She did not actually care about this defeat, as the smarter her opponent, the more more worthwhile their defeat.
After reading the entire report, Yu Chen lifted her hand and called Guan Tong, the gate master of Humility's Gate in Huaiyuan.
Given her position as Bai Shaohong's personal maid, she had access to information beyond what ordinary people could even imagine. She had access to almost all of the Celestial Frost Sect’s intelligence, let alone something like Guan Tong’s contact information. Of course, she had someone helping her, and more than just one. She had hundreds of underlings, and there was one in particular that she relied on a great deal. His surname was Liu.
Despite having the Liu surname, this person relied on the Celestial Frost Sect. This was a rare occurrence, but the man was smart, and he was perfect for Yu Chen to use for certain tasks.
The three Guan brothers had just finished their discussion, but before they were able to go their own ways, the call from Yu Chen came through.
"Miss Yu Chen, what's the matter?" Guan Tong asked calmly as he looked at the image of the beautiful and vicious woman that had appeared in front of him. Guan Hai and Guan Yun remained nearby.
Guan Yun stared at Yu Chen's back with heat in his eyes.
Long Xi was truly the greatest treasure of the Higher Realm, but Yu Chen was certainly not bad. Though her status was indeed lower than Long Xi’s, Yu Chen was far more vicious than Long Xi would ever be capable of.
There were countless people who longed for this woman, as the stronger the woman, the greater the desire to win her over. Unfortunately, Yu Chen belonged to Bai Shaohong.
Yu Chen showed an extremely respectful front as she spoke with Guan Tong. After all, she was speaking with an Envoy who was one of Humility's Gate’s nine gate masters in the Middle Realm. Guan Tong’s status was incomparable to Elder Qing Xing’s. "Gate Master Guan, it's been a long time since we last met. It’s already been five years."
Guan Tong nodded. "We saw each other when Junior Progenitor Bai met with us brothers."
Yu Chen smiled and said, "This girl feels honored that you remember such a small person."
Guan Tong’s eyes narrowed and he started to get quite nervous. Even though he had come to hate Bai Shaohong because of what had happened with Mo Gaohe, the Envoy did not dare grow complacent with this woman. Sharp wits and overwhelming power were both aspects of strength that were difficult to deal with.
"I’m not sure what might have happened to cause Miss Yu Chen to call me?" Guan Tong asked.
Yu Chen smiled and slowly leaned into a bow.
Guan Tong was caught off guard. "What does Miss Yu Chen mean by this?"
Yu Chen answered in a somber tone, "Because of Long Qi, Yu Chen willfully used the gate master’s power, so please forgive me."
After apologizing, she bowed a second time.
Guan Tong’s grudge faded a bit after seeing Yu Chen’s sincerity. However, he was a powerful cultivator, and he was not stupid. This woman was not someone who would apologize without any reason. "Let’s forget about the past, Miss Yu Chen. If you were calling me just because of that matter, it was not needed."
Yu Chen flashed a smile that lit up the entire area. Seeing it left Guan Yun short of breath. This kind of woman was too impressive.
"Gate Master, this little one also wanted to take advantage of this time to offer the gate master a deal," Yu Chen said.
Guan Tong's eyes flashed. "I'm sorry, Miss Yu Chen, but I am just the gate master of Humility's Gate’s forces in Huaiyuan, and I am focused on rooting out traitors and Redbacks. I have no desire to get involved in other matters."
Yu Chen smiled and said, "My Junior Progenitor said that if the gate master is willing to help us, he would be willing to help the gate master eventually become the supervisor of all nine bases. Not only that, he will also be able to persuade that person."
Guan Tong's eyes instantly went wide, and the nearby Guan Hai and Guan Yun felt overjoyed.
It did not matter what other people might offer them, but this was a promise from Bai Shaohong. He was the Celestial Frost Sect’s Junior Progenitor! However, it was not the offer of Bai Shaohong’s support that excited them so. After all, despite the Junior Progenitor’s talent, he still needed time to grow into his power, so support from a youth was not a guarantee.
No, what had excited the three brothers was the offer of support from the person who stood behind Bai Shaohong. That person was Bai Shaohong's older sister, Bai Xian'er. She was someone who truly stood at the top of the universe, and a word from her was enough to change the powers existing in the Perennial World moved. In other words, she was someone who even a Progenitor was cautious of. That was Bai Xian'er, and she was essentially an empress in the Perennial World.
Only those who were able to come in contact with the top powers of the Perennial World actually understood the horror of Bai Xian'er.
Summoning forth rain and storms with just a flick of her palm was the best way to describe Bai Xian'er. She did not easily make a move, but the moment she did, there was nothing and no one who would be able to stop her. Even a Progenitor would have to be extremely cautious of her actions.
If Bai Xian'er was indeed willing to support Guan Tong to become the supervisor of the nine Humility's Gate bases in the Middle Realm, success was already decided.
Guan Tong became short of breath and his eyes flushed red. "Can you really get me that person’s support?"
Miss Yu Chen smiled. "That will all depend on just how much the gate master is able to accomplish. You should already understand what it is that my Junior Progenitor is wanting, and what he wishes to destroy."
Guan Tong fell into thought.
Miss Yu Chen was not concerned. “Take your time to think about this, but you will only get one opportunity.”
Her image then vanished.
Across the room, Guan Yun eagerly spoke up, "Big Brother, what are you waiting for? How many people in this universe want to get close to that person through Junior Progenitor Bai? You’ve just been given that opportunity, so you have to take it!"
Guan Tong frowned. He was still thinking.
"Brother, what else is there to even think about? Even the supervisor of the Middle Realm’s nine bases has to give that person some respect. If she really does end up willing to support you, who in the entire Middle Realm could possibly fight you for anything? Even in the Higher Realm there aren’t many people who are willing to cross that person. That’s exactly the power of a person standing at the top," Guan Yun anxiously pressed.
"Third Brother, eldest brother is needing to weigh things out for himself.” Guan Hai had calmed down a great deal, and he spoke up to put a stop to what Guan Yun was about to say next.
Guan Yun quickly behaved himself.
Guan Tong looked over at Guan Hai. "While it's definitely important to get that person’s support, you and I won’t be anything more than simple cannon fodder for the skirmishes between the four ruling powers."
Guan Hai nodded. "If the powerhouse themselves made you such an offer, you would have to accept it unconditionally, but since this came through Bai Shaohong, you were not given a very reliable promise."
Guan Tong said, "Bai Shaohong is not able to influence that woman. Humility's Gate’s Middle Realm supervisor is an extremely important post, and it’s really not likely for us to get such a position. It’s almost always filled by someone from the four ruling powers, and it’s a difficult post to win."
"But Eldest Brother-"
Guan Yun wanted to say something, but Guan Tong cut him off with a fierce glare. "Do you want to die just because of getting dragged into a fight between the four ruling powers? Even if it’s possible to get the support of a top powerhouse, you have to be alive to enjoy it. You have to remember who we are; while it will become easier for us to move the higher we climb, it’s also easier for us to be exposed.”
Guan Yun felt helpless. Everyone in the entire universe wanted to get closer to that person, as the woman was truly like a G.o.d. She practically ran the universe! However, a G.o.d was a G.o.d, and mortals could not approach a G.o.d.
Yu Chen never expected the three Guan brothers to commit their lives to service after just a few words. She was sure that Long Qi would continue to make efforts to gain additional accomplishments in order to protect himself, and it was quite possible that his actions would irritate the three Guan brothers, because they acted as though only their Huaiyuan base could gain such merit.
Yu Chen was able to a.n.a.lyze Long Qi’s personality from just a single incident. He was clearly not willing to be a tortoise, as he would not have taken such actions against Mo Gaohe if he were. In that case, he would have immediately contacted the White Dragon Clan and left Mo Gaohe for them to deal with.
Long Qi would continue to arrest more traitors, and the more people he arrested, especially in Huaiyuan’s jurisdiction, the more people would feel that the three Guan brothers were incompetent. It was just a matter of time before the brothers moved against Lu Yin.
