Chapter 975: Killing with a Borrowed Knife (Sixth update completed)
After hearing Su Yi’s question, Li Chongba showed a hint of contemplation on his face. After thinking for a while, he answered:
"This new flagbearer is a bit extraordinary. Although he is only at the early stage of the Golden Core, his true strength is probably not Under me! The most troublesome thing is that this person doesn't take soft and hard, and he acts very calmly, and it seems that he doesn't want to turn a blind eye."
Li Chongba slowly said his evaluation of Liang Yan. Before Su Yi could respond, Su Yan, who was standing aside, frowned slightly.
"In the early stage of the Golden Core, is this person you are talking about a sword cultivator?" Su Yan suddenly asked.
Li Chongba was slightly stunned and asked curiously: "It is indeed a sword cultivator. How did the eldest lady know?"
Su Yan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and then asked: "This person is a gray man. A man in clothes, with a green gourd and a palm-sized wooden house hanging on his waist?"
"Exactly!"
Li Chongba nodded without thinking.
“Haha, it’s really him!”
Su Yan's eyes lit up when she heard this, with a hint of excitement on her face.
Su Yi, who was sitting in the main seat, saw her like this and couldn't help but ask: "What? Does my good niece know this person?"
"Know! It's more than just acquaintance. !”
Su Yan gritted her teeth as she spoke, her eyes filled with resentment.
“Not long ago, my ancestor made a divination for Yan’er, saying that in the Black Wind Mountain here, a wood-attributed treasure of heaven and earth is about to be born. This thing can solve the problem of my unstable foundation. . So Yan'er came to collect it with She and He, but she didn't want to be taken advantage of by this person and took the treasure away from me."
"This is happening!"
Su Yi said with a gloomy face: "Don't he know that you are a direct descendant of my Su family?"
"So what if he knows?" Su Yan He curled his lips and said with some embarrassment: "He didn't take our Su family seriously at all, and even made nonsense of the four major families. Among them, only our Su family is the least useful.”
“That’s unreasonable!”
Su Yi smashed the wooden table next to him and stood up from his seat. He stood up and shouted: "Is this person so brave? He actually dares to speak rudely to our Su family!"
"This person is indeed hateful. Please ask your fourth uncle to make the decision for Yan'er!" Su Yan quickly struck while the iron was hot.
"Hmph!"
Su Yi looked at her anxious look and suddenly calmed down. How could he not know what kind of character his niece was? She was always adding fuel to the fire, but she couldn't take it seriously. .
Standing there and pondering for a while, Su Yi suddenly asked: "This person is just a monk in the early stage of the Golden Elixir. How can he slip away from the noses of Snake and He?"
"Fourth Uncle, this man is very capable. Although he is only in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, he is not afraid of snakes and cranes joining forces. I think this is why he despises my Su family so much."
"In the early stage of the Golden Elixir, you are not afraid of snakes and cranes?" Su Yi frowned slightly and said: "This person has such strong magical powers. Could it be that he has something to do with the young master of the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce?"
"Probably not." Li Chongba on the side said at this time: "According to my contacts in the Chamber of Commerce, this person's name is Liang Yan, he is a monk from the Nanchui wilderness, and he has just landed in the Antarctic Immortal Continent. For a long time, he was recruited by the Chamber of Commerce because of his outstanding abilities, and the flag bearer in charge of this area had an accident, so he was temporarily appointed for three years."
"Well. ? So he doesn’t have any background?”
“Yes, senior, don’t worry, this person is just a monk who smuggled over from a remote island.”
"You did a good job!"
Su Yi nodded and said: "No matter what, we cannot let him find out that the last flag bearer has been replaced by us. This is an arrangement arranged by our Su family. A chess piece in the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce will sooner or later get what our ancestor wants.”
"Senior, don't worry, I have destroyed the relevant evidence a long time ago. No matter how they investigate, they will never find any clues."
"Humph!"
Not even waiting for Li Chongba After saying that, Su Yan, who had been silent all the time, suddenly snorted coldly and interrupted:
"It's just a little golden elixir monk, how can the fourth uncle be afraid of him! If you ask me, just kill this person, wouldn't you just sit back and relax!"
"Nonsense!"
Su Yi reprimanded and said: "This is not the time to act on impulse. Although this person's cultivation is not high, he is the flag bearer appointed by the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce. As long as he stays in Qingyun Pavilion, It’s not easy for Fourth Uncle to take action, otherwise you will bear the consequences if you provoke the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce?”
His scolding was like pouring cold water on Su Yan, and she just listened. The hateful voice said:
"This person not only humiliated me, but also took away my opportunity and blocked my path. Is this the end of the matter?"
"Hey, Miss, there's no need to be angry. As far as Li is concerned, it's not completely impossible." Li Chongba suddenly laughed from the side.
"Oh?"
Su Yi also became interested and couldn't help but ask: "What can you do, tell me?"
"According to my His subordinates reported that Liang Yan was looking for a treasure called 'Blood Cloud Branch' recently. Both Qishui City and Guangyuan City branches were looking for it all over the country. I have tried my best to search, but I haven’t found anything yet, but there is such a plant in my Fengtian City branch.”
When Li Chongba said this, he paused for a moment, and then chuckled: “I’m here. In view of this, we can definitely give it what we like and make use of this 'Blood Cloud Branch'."
"Blood Cloud Branch? This is a rare thing." Su Yi asked thoughtfully, "How do you plan to plot against him?" , we have also deployed some manpower, we only need to Find a reliable subordinate to spread the word and say that he has the 'Blood Cloud Branch' in his hand that can be traded, but it must be discussed in person. If Liang Yan really needs this thing, he can be lured out of Qingyun Pavilion."
“ When the time comes, the seniors only need to ambush where they meet, and when Liang Yan arrives, he will be killed with thunderbolts. After the incident is completed, we will kill all the men who know about it."
Li. Chongba said with a smile: "In this way, even if the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce headquarters sends someone to investigate, they will only think that there was a conflict between the two during the transaction. As a result, the other party killed and took the treasure and escaped."
"Wonderful. ! ”
After listening to Li Chongba's words, Su Yi couldn't help but laugh:
"If I want to talk about ruthlessness, you are still ruthless. This trick of 'killing someone with a borrowed knife' is really amazing! When the time comes, Qingyun After the Chamber of Commerce traces it, they will only focus on working for him. The Qishui City and Guangyuan City branches who were looking for the 'Blood Cloud Branch' not only eliminated the thorn in their side, but also suppressed the other two branches. It really killed two birds with one stone!"
