C1169 It Was Exactly as Chu Yan Had Said
This process was naturally because Kong Xian and Chu Yan were resting in the courtyard.
He went to check it out. After finding nothing wrong, he stayed there for a while before returning.
To Cui Derong, Chu Yan and Kong Xian were just small shrimps.
Currently, the most important thing was the transaction a few days later.
That night, Fu Yan, who was in charge of communications, returned with a message.
"After five days, you can trade."
This time, was two days earlier than Cui Derong had expected. This caused him to be in a great mood.
Thus, after some thought, Cui Derong decided on the plan completely, and started instructing them.
"Tomorrow, arrange for those two Upper Sect Disciple s to conduct an inspection of the mine's resources. In two days, after the inspection, tell them to scram.
Now we're going to do our own thing.
Oh right, those two disciples … "
A cold light surfaced in Cui Derong's eyes.
Qiao Qianshui, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but feel his heart jump when he saw this cold light.
After a moment, Cui Derong spoke again: "Although those two disciples didn't find anything wrong tonight, I still feel uneasy.
Fu Yan, inform them again and have them send someone out to help us do something.
It's not convenient for us to get involved in this matter. "
The few higher-ups of the Setting Sun Sect had worked together for a long time, and by the time they heard Cui Derong's words, they already knew what he was thinking.
Surprised by Cui Derong's decision, Fu Yan hesitated for a while before asking: "In five days, we can make the trade. We can have the other side send people to kill them.
After all, one of them is the Duke of Precious Appearance Kingdom. "
Fu Yan's words now represented the attitude of the majority of the people present.
However, Cui Derong shook his head and said, "The prince of Precious Appearance Kingdom is not the master of the Heaven's Edge Sect.
Even if they had fallen, to Heaven's Edge Sect, they would only be disciples who had lost a single Earth Origin Stage, and they would not chase after them.
Furthermore, as long as we do our best to not leak any information, no matter how hard the Heaven's Edge Sect tries to investigate, we won't be able to find any clues.
That's why I wanted you to tell them to send someone.
If we make a move, we always leave a trail behind us.
This weakness must not be left behind.
"As for what you said, would it be unnecessary?"
Cui Derong paused, and unintentionally glanced at Qiao Qianshui.
This look made Qiao Qianshui's hair stand on end, and he trembled with fear.
He thought that Cui Derong would find out that he did not manage to handle the matter tonight.
However, Cui Derong only glanced at him once, and did not go any deeper, but turned his head and continued to speak to the others: "I keep having the feeling that they knew something, so it's better to shut them up for good."
"Then should we inform Cheng Haonan about this?" Dan Li asked.
"Not at the moment. He has his own plans. There's no need to tell him about this." Cui Derong looked deeply at everyone, "There are still five days left, and we shouldn't have the slightest bit of relaxation.
In five days, we will gain unprecedented power. "
Once Cui Derong said this, everyone's eyes filled with yearning.
The matter that happened the night before was something that the members of the Setting Sun Sect and Chu Yan understood tacitly.
Both sides had their own plans, so on the surface, it was still harmonious.
However, when he was inspecting the ore deposit, a small accident occurred.
Zhang Bo, who was in charge of accompanying the Setting Sun Sect, discovered that the Great Master Qin, the gatekeeper, had disappeared.
Only the celestial mood stage of the Setting Sun Sect knew the true identity of the gatekeeper Great Master Qin.
Furthermore, Cheng Haonan was originally part of their group.
Now that he was gone, at this critical moment, no matter how he looked at it, it was a huge matter.
But just when Zhang Bo was wondering if he should tell Cui Derong about this matter, he suddenly thought of what the other party had said the night before.
"He has his own plans …"
That was what Cui Derong had said at the time.
Zhang Bo also knew about Cheng Haonan's situation.
A fellow whose vital energy and blood were about to dry up and was about to die soon.
"Perhaps in order to extend his lifespan, he hid away to linger on his last breath, waiting for us to come back to extend his life." On the surface, Zhang Bo was smiling amiably to Chu Yan and Kong Xian, but in his heart, he was sneering nonstop, "The five of us are doing what we should and are giving our lives for this.
In the end, Cheng Haonan did not even put in much effort. The last benefit was that he had to get a share.
"Hmph, what does his life or death have to do with me? It would be even better if he were to die in the next few days."
Thinking about it this way, Zhang Bo decided not to go overboard and told the others about Cheng Haonan's sudden disappearance.
Overall, the process of the investigation went quite smoothly.
Chu Yan and Kong Xian also displayed the stern attitude that a Upper Sect Disciple should have.
When they encountered a problem, they would ask about it carefully and look through some of the accounts.
In short, after a total of two days of verification, Zhang Bo and Kong Xian felt that they had accepted a mission to inspect the mining conditions of the mine.
As for the so-called other reasons, they were all due to his own suspicions.
"Sigh, looks like the older you are, the more cowardly you'll be."
Watching Chu Yan and Kong Xian's Spirit Boat get smaller and smaller in the sky, Zhang Bo sighed in his heart.
After sighing for a while, Zhang Bo turned around and walked back.
At this moment, he stood up straight and walked vigorously.
The reason was simple. In three days, he and a few of the Setting Sun Sect's celestial mood stage s would lead to a cultivation career where the risks were the greatest, but at the same time, the rewards would also be greater.
...
The setting sun dyed the sky red, as if it was dyed red with blood.
The huge setting sun swallowed the clouds and slowly sank towards the horizon.
At this time, a Spirit Boat flew over from afar, just in time to glide past the setting sun.
From afar, it looked like the most interesting painting.
But at that moment, there was a sudden boom.
In the next moment, a sharp beam of light suddenly rose from the ground, directly piercing through the flying Spirit Boat.
The Spirit Boat paused in midair, and a large amount of fragments flew into the air.
At this moment, the ray of light spread out like a palm, and then clenched into a fist.
Bang!
The Spirit Boat that was enveloped in light instantly exploded and turned into fine powder. When the wind blew, it immediately flew in all directions amidst the sunset.
There was no one here, only dense forests and mountains.
A Spirit Boat that passed through this area would be smashed to pieces here, and wouldn't be discovered by anyone.
The guy who made a move clearly also had this idea, so after knowing the flight path of the Spirit Boat, he chose to make his move here.
But what this guy did not know was that, at the place that was located, about fifteen kilometers away from the explosion of the Spirit Boat, Kong Xian stood on top of a big tree, looking at the powder and debris that filled the sky, and muttered: "It's exactly as Chu Yan said, those guys, they will make their move on our way back."
