Chapter 160 A turning point, the dragon is born(1/2)
Latest website:
Lanzhou, Biyanze.
It was that uninhabited island again, and Zhou Mingde came over again to wait for the people from Hualong Sect to come and trade.
Now after several transactions, he is no longer as worried about this matter as he was at the beginning.
Especially since Zhou Daoyi's case of Azure Cloud Python transforming into a dragon was about to come to an end, he felt more confident.
But what made Zhou Mingde's expression slightly change was that the Hualong Cult monk who came to trade with him this time was no longer Lin Yan, a middle-aged woman who had dealt with him several times before, but an old man in red.
"What's going on over there? Why did you suddenly change people without any prior notice? Do you still see me?"
On the small island, Zhou Mingde appeared, looked at the old man in red and scolded him sternly, feeling extremely unhappy.
Facing his scolding, the old man in red also saluted with fear and fear, and explained: "Senior, please forgive me, because Master Lin was injured a few days ago and can no longer perform this task, so the protector can only temporarily order this junior to come.
Execute the mission.”
After speaking, he whispered again: "In addition, the protector also specifically asked me to tell my senior that she will come here in person to meet with my senior next time. I hope that the quality of the goods prepared by my senior will be better next time!"
When Zhou Mingde heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but said angrily: "What does she mean? What exactly does she want to do? Didn't she agree that she wouldn't come forward in person?"
Seeing how angry he was, the old man in red didn't understand why. Since both parties were making such a secret deal, he didn't understand why he was so angry because Lin Hongyu wanted to come over in person.
But he didn’t understand, so the old man in red still had a look of fear on his face and shook his head repeatedly, saying: “I don’t know, junior, I’m just sending a message to the protector, senior, please forgive me!”
"Huh, then next time we meet, I will definitely tell her about this in person!"
Zhou Mingde snorted coldly, took the transaction from the old man in red, and left the island with anger still lingering.
After returning to his family, he specially called Zhou Daoyi and Zhou Chun to the cave for discussion because of this unexpected incident.
"Tell me, you two, what was her plan for making such a sudden change?"
In the cave, after Zhou Mingde explained the transaction process in one breath, he looked at Zhou Daoyi and Zhou Chun asked for their opinions.
After hearing his words, the two of them looked at each other in silence for a moment, and both frowned and started thinking.
After a long time passed like this, Zhou Daoyi slowly said: "Although the temptress has a bad temper, we can't underestimate her wisdom. She has informed people of this matter a year in advance, which means that she may need to help us."
The strength of the Zhou family can do great things."
After finishing speaking, he answered and asked in self-doubt: "But what big things can our Zhou family do for her? She can't think that by holding our hands, we can make our whole family join the Hualong Cult, right?"
"Could it be for internal matters within the Hualong Sect?"
Zhou Chun suddenly interjected.
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi both stared at each other.
Then Zhou Mingde looked at Zhou Chun and asked, "What should I say? Zhengchun, what did you think of?"
"This junior just feels that for the Red Dragon Protector, basically all our Zhou family can do for her in Jingguo is to transport personnel and intelligence as we do now."
"And as long as our Zhou family doesn't show any obvious intention to break up with her, she won't be stupid enough to force us to do things that can easily destroy our family."
"But if it is for internal matters within Hualong Cult and you want to use us to help her eliminate dissidents, this matter can still be done, and as long as it is done well, both parties will benefit!"
Zhou Chun bowed his hands towards the two elders and expressed his guess with a serious face.
After listening to his speculation, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi both looked thoughtful.
Then Zhou Daoyi nodded and said: "If you think about it carefully, what Zhengchun said is quite reasonable."
"There are many factions within the Hualong Sect. Generally, the factions are distinguished by the attributes of the dragon's spiritual blood. There must be conflicts of interest between each faction."
"But with the pressure of the leader and deputy leader from above, no matter how fierce the internal fight is, they may not dare to really fight and cause loss of life."
"In this way, if we really have to eliminate an opponent, we can only use the power of outsiders to eliminate dissidents by borrowing a knife to kill someone!"
Having said this, Zhou Daoyi couldn't help but look at Zhou Mingde.
Then she said with a worried look: "But if it is really to eliminate dissidents, I am afraid that the opponents she wants to eliminate must also be at the level of protectors. In that case..."
Every protector of the Dragon Transformation Sect has practiced the "Secret of Transformation into a Dragon" to the third level.
With this secret technique at hand, the strength of every Dragon Transformation Sect protector will not be much worse.
This is also the advantage of some big forces. The powerful inherited secrets they master can guarantee that the monks in their sect will be stronger than most monks of the same level who are from ordinary small forces.
Although Zhou Mingde was quite capable, if he wanted to kill a Dragon Transformation Sect protector alone, he would have to pay a huge price to do so.
It’s just possible!
But Zhou Mingde's eyes flashed at this time, and he said in a low tone: "If she really uses us to eliminate dissidents for her, that would be a good thing!"
"In this way, she will have something to hold in our hands, and we don't have to worry about her suddenly turning her back and exposing our existence!"
"She can even cancel the dangerous deal she made before!"
The current cooperation between the Zhou family and Lin Hongyu is completely forced and helpless because the other party has taken advantage of them.
If you can hold Lin Hongyu's hand in turn, you can have a good conversation with her.
In Zhou Mingde's opinion, this was safer than killing Lin Hongyu secretly.
After all, no one can guarantee that Lin Hongyu will have left a back-up plan long ago. Once she dies, she will trigger the back-up plan and make the Zhou family's secret deal with her public.
As for the price to pay for killing a Hualong Sect protector.
Zhou Mingde immediately looked at Zhou Daoyi and said: "Daoyi, if your Azure Cloud Python can successfully turn into a dragon, with its help, it is not impossible to kill a Dragon Transformation Sect protector!"
Hearing his words, Zhou Daoyi was also slightly startled.
Then he murmured to himself with a complex expression: "So the temptress also figured this out?"
Um?
There is a story!
After hearing Zhou Daoyi's words, Zhou Chun's eyes flashed as if he had discovered something.
He had already heard that Zhou Daoyi's tone was unusual, and his name for the Red Dragon Protector was also a bit strange.
But even if Zhou Chun was smart, he would not have thought at this time how close the relationship between Zhou Daoyi and Lin Hongyu really was.
I just secretly speculated that this clan leader might have an unusual grudge and entanglement with the red dragon protector.
At this time, Zhou Mingde waved his hand and said: "In short, although these are just our guesses, it is better to prepare in advance. Let's prepare based on this guess!"
But only he can make this preparation.
Zhou Chun can't intervene in that level of battle at all, he can only make plans and provide some suggestions.
So in the following time, Zhou Chun also dealt with family affairs while intensively making final preparations for converting to Kung Fu.
One year has passed quickly.
Zhou Mingde went to the small island of Biyanze as promised, and also met Lin Hongyu who came as promised.
After he returned to his family, he called Zhou Daoyi and Zhou Chun into the cave.
"Masachun really guessed it right!"
"She came to see me this time just to ask our Zhou family to help her eliminate a competitor, and he is also a red dragon protector of her own faction!"
"And she also promised me that as long as our Zhou family can help her get rid of this competitor, she can no longer ask us to provide her with manpower. As long as we maintain intelligence exchanges and cooperate with each other to seek our own interests in the future!"
Inside the cave, Zhou Mingde looked quite excited and talked to Zhou Daoyi and Zhou Chun about what they had gained from their trip.
Obviously, he was happy from the bottom of his heart about this result.
And while he was talking, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out something and showed it to the two of them.
"This poisonous dragon cone talisman is something she specially prepared for the success of our operation. It is made from the poisonous fangs of the third-level poisonous dragon."
"As long as we can find an opportunity to put this thing into the body of the red dragon protector, the poisonous dragon's poison alone will make her irreversible!"
she?
Zhou Chun keenly heard what Zhou Mingde's words were referring to.
Dang even asked: "Is the Red Dragon Protector Lin, whom Protector Lin asked us to deal with, also a female cultivator of the Dragon Transformation Sect?"
When Zhou Mingde heard this, he nodded immediately and said: "Yes, according to Lin Hongyu, the Dragon Transformation Sister is currently her biggest competitor in the Red Dragon lineage. Not only does she also have the cultivation level of the middle stage of Zifu
, she is also the concubine of a certain Red Dragon elder from Hualong Sect!"
Hearing his words, Zhou Daoyi couldn't help frowning and whispered: "Since the target is the concubine of a monk in the Golden Core stage, and she has cultivation in the middle stage of Zifu, can our Zhou family really kill her?"
"Even if we can kill her, wouldn't we have offended that Golden Core Stage monk?"
This is also Zhou Chun's worry.
Both of them immediately looked at Zhou Mingde, wanting to hear his opinions.
Facing the gazes of the two men, Zhou Mingde calmed down and said: "According to Lin Hongyu, the target will have an opportunity to place an order in half a year. That's the best time for me to make a move!"
"As for whether we can really kill her then, it depends on whether the poisonous dragon cone talisman given by Lin Hongyu is as useful as she said."
"Even if the assassination fails, we still have the handle on Lin Hongyu, and we no longer have to be controlled or coerced by her in the future!"
When Zhou Mingde said this, he said in a deep voice: "As for killing people who will offend the Golden Core Stage monks of the Hualong Sect, there is nothing to worry about."
