C3943 Analyzing the Enemy's Strategy!
Nie Kongyuan's face was filled with a sense of calm. His grandson was too smart. If it wasn't for Nie Qing, the entire Nie Family would have been destroyed. As for this time, he would let the Gu Family take over the job! After all, they had never been on good terms with the Nie Family, so he would just sit back and watch them kill each other.
"Grandfather, don't let your guard down. The Gu Family is not a fool. It won't be easy to make them take action. We need to discuss this properly. How can we make the Gu Family work for us without them knowing? Grandfather, this is not an easy matter. We need to plan carefully."
Nie Qing's face became paler and paler. As long as he thought about it deeply, his body would be reborn, and he would be completely caught off guard.
"It's very simple. Didn't the Gu Family always want us to be neighbors with the Crimson Blood City? This time, I will sell it to them at a low price. However, the condition is that we have to kill Gu Huang. That old man, Yi Tianxie, will agree to it. He doesn't know how powerful Gu Huang is, so he will agree without hesitation. As long as he takes action, the consequences will be beyond his control."
A cunning smile appeared on Nie Kongyuan's face, causing his heart to tremble uncontrollably.
"Scarlet Blood City, hmm... Grandfather, this is a good plan. As for this matter, I'll leave it to you. I'll take my leave first. I have to go back and think of a plan to deal with Gu Huang. The Gu Family can't kill this demon, so it's very likely that they will be counter-attacked. Gu Huang, if you were not the enemy of our Nie Family, it would be great. I believe that we would become good friends. Unfortunately, it's destined that we will become enemies. In that case, let's have a good fight!"
Nie Qing's last half of his words were uttered in his heart. His eyes revealed an incomparably divine light. He didn't have many years left to live. It was naturally worth a gamble to meet such an opponent before he died.

In Xueyang City, Feng Qiutong held her chin with both hands, her long eyelashes trembling uncontrollably as she revealed a look of curiosity. She said, "Gu Huang, are you really confident in this trip? This matter isn't that simple. If anything goes wrong, with my father's temper, he will definitely send troops against you. At that time, you will be a sinner of the Human Clan."
"Third Princess, you said that I have considered it. It is indeed quite troublesome, but the Demon Emperor is at the peak of the Gu Sheng realm. Even if he is afraid, it will be difficult for him to become an emperor. But what if his daughter can become an emperor? Do you think that the Demon Emperor will mobilize troops against our Human Clan for such a small matter? This is just a matter of borrowing your name. It won't do any harm to your Demon Clan. Moreover, I can increase the number of Heavenly Venerates and Kings in your Demon Clan by ten. As long as you cooperate with me in this act, it will be fine. This is a deal. Third Princess, what do you think? Do you want to discuss it with your Demon Emperor?"
Gu Huang lightly put down his wine cup, and a calm smile appeared on his face. It seemed that these things were nothing in his eyes. Ten Empyreans and a hundred Kings. No matter which race it was, they would not reject Gu Huang's proposal to increase their combat strength by so much.
Feng Qitong had just finished drinking the wine, and now, he spat out all of it. He looked at Gu Huang in disbelief and said, "What did you say? Success, success, and increase the number of Kings and Empyreans for our Demon Clan by a hundred. Are you serious?"
"Are you joking?" Gu Huang lightly poured out a cup of wine, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face. No one could understand his thoughts.
Feng Qitong took a deep breath. A hundred Kings and ten Empyreans. What kind of combat strength was this? He had begged him over and over again, but he refused. Now, he had offered such a condition. Most importantly, he had the potential to become an emperor. In terms of becoming an emperor, no one in the world could be stronger than Gu Huang. He dared to fight against the Illusionary Moon Emperor and not lose.
"Young Master Gu, what other conditions do you have? State them all! Even if you want to use my identity to kill me this time, there is no need to give me such a condition. This condition is too big, so big that I can't refuse it. However, the things you want are not worth so much."
"The third princess is the third princess. However, the reason why I increased the fighting strength of your Demon Clan is not because of your Demon Clan, but only because of your faction. I don't have any other requests for now, and I promise to give you a hundred Kings and Celestial Venerables. With my current cultivation, it will be impossible for me to complete it in a short period of time. Ten years, give me ten years. As for my request, we can discuss it in the future. We will definitely make both of us satisfied. Alright, it's getting late. It's time for us to set off."
Gu Huang gave Feng Qiutong an empty cheque in the beginning. After the matter with the Phantom Progenitor, Gu Huang had completely changed his mindset. It didn't matter if the enemy was an enemy or not, everything depended on benefits. What he wanted to protect was only the common people of the secular world. That was the foundation of the Human Clan. As for the common people above the dynasty, it had nothing to do with him.
In the past, he did not want the third princess to grow up and was afraid that she would become the enemy of the Human Clan in the future. Now, it was just a laughable problem. The Demon Clan was very strong, so strong that it could even complete the inheritance of a Great Emperor. In the future, it would be beneficial for them to form an alliance. Especially when the third princess grew up, it would be even more beneficial.
"Alright, Young Master Gu, this time, you will break the sky. I, Feng Qiutong, will also be able to hold you back. You can do whatever you want. I think that this matter is about me. I will give my father some face regarding the Human Emperor of the Divine Dynasty. If he doesn't give it to me, my thirty million troops are not to be trifled with."
Feng Qiutong was not a fool. On the contrary, no matter if it was her schemes, methods, or cultivation, she was far superior to her peers. Gu Huang's promise was only for her, and it had nothing to do with the Demon Clan. It was also a refusal of her invitation. However, from a certain point of view, it was still a good relationship with her.
Both of them were smart people. There were some things that did not need to be said, and they knew what the other party needed. This was the most important thing. Moreover, they knew the other party's background. This was enough to prove that the moment they met, it was not a coincidence, but a certainty.
The two of them left Xueyang City openly, and their destination was the Grand Xuan King City, which was three million miles away. If they were to travel alone, it would take them at least several years to get there. However, there was a teleportation formation in Qingyang City, which was 100,000 miles away, and it could reach the Grand Xuan King City within a short period of time.
Gu Huang had already planned this in his heart. If the Nie Family came, the process of their assassination would only happen within the 100,000 miles in front of them. Once they arrived in Qingyang City, there would be no chance at all. If Gu Huang were to travel at full speed, it would only take him three to five days to reach the Grand Xuan King City.
The journey was already more than halfway through, but they still had not seen any Nie Family people. This made Gu Huang feel strange. There must be something wrong with this. With the Nie Family's style of doing things, they would definitely not let this matter rest. Moreover, they had passed by many towns during these few days. As long as they investigated, they would be able to find his whereabouts.
"Young Master Gu, with our current speed, we will reach Qingyang City in three days at most. However, the people from the Nie Family have yet to appear. It seems that your plan is going to fail. If they don't come, our next plan won't be able to be carried out. It seems that someone has already seen through your plan, or someone has set a trap for us in Qingyang City."
A strange light flashed in Feng Qi Tong's eyes, and she even revealed a smile. It was impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"It is possible that someone has seen through my plan, but they definitely won't set a trap in Qingyang City. There are troops stationed there, and every teleportation formation is a strategic resource. No one dares to cause trouble in Qingyang City. If I were a member of the Nie Family, I would have killed so many of their people. Third Princess, if it were you, would you be able to bear with this?"
Gu Huang was deep in thought. He was deliberately testing Feng Qi Tong. After all, he had been thinking about this matter for the past few days. It was almost as Feng Qi Tong had said. His plan might have been exposed. From this, it could be seen that the people from the Nie Family were not idiots.
"The Great Xuan Dynasty, Nie, Ye, Yun, Yu, and Yi Families, they are almost all important officials of the Great Xuan Dynasty. Furthermore, they are the most incompatible with the Gu Family and the Nie Family. If I were a member of the Gu Family, I would definitely not make a move even if I knew that this would bring about the destruction of my entire family. However, I can lead the disaster to the east. You are a member of the Gu Family. Although you are not on the same side as the Gu Family, there is a saying, 'if you are not close to your family, it is hard to say whether you will reconcile with them one day.' At that time, the Nie Family will definitely be in great danger. If it were me, I would sell some of my family to exchange for the Gu Family to make a move, letting you dogs bite each other and reap the benefits. This time, the one who will make a move is not the Nie Family, but the Gu Family."
Feng Qiutong's eyes flashed with a bright light, but she clearly analyzed the power within it, and it was very clear and logical, without any flaws.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!" Gu Huang clapped his hands, and he looked as if he was admiring his work. He said, "The third princess is the third princess. She is indeed extraordinary! It seems that your intelligence work is not bad at all. Amazing, amazing. It seems that we have met an extraordinary opponent this time. A mere misdirection can avoid a great disaster for the family and also release a foul breath."
"Young Master Gu, this is just my analysis. If the Nie Family really did this, and the one who did it was someone from your Gu Family, then what should you do next? No matter what, the Gu Family is your family. If you kill them here, it will definitely cause the elders of the Gu Family to take revenge. This is not good for you, and the Nie Family is clearly going to sit and watch the tiger fight."
Feng Qiutong frowned slightly. Although she knew that this was a trap, it was really difficult to break it. As long as the Nie Family did not make a move, the following series of plans would be completely destroyed.
"It seems that it is indeed quite difficult to deal with it. However, is it really that easy for the Nie Family to sit and watch the tiger fight and pick up the benefits? Since they know how to make a trap, can't I do the same?"
Gu Huang stood with his hands behind his back, his face revealing a hint of coldness. It was obvious that everything was under his control.
