Chapter 217 Wenren Li’S Plan
Chapter 217: Wenren Li's Plan
The plot against Zhang Chi did not immediately unfold; everyone was waiting for the right moment.
After discussing with Ao Yue, Hong Li decided to wait for Ao Yue to go out to sea and shake things up.
This time, the goal was not only to kill Zhang Chi, but also to catch the human race off guard and deal a heavy blow.
Although Yin Xun did not provide a method to break the Luck Formation, he suggested that he could help dismantle the defense formation of the Profound Heart Sect.
Once the defense formation of the Profound Heart Sect was destroyed, the Water Monster Race could fully utilize their racial advantage and infiltrate the heartland of the Profound Heart Sect through various water routes.
By then, with equal high-end combat power and overwhelming low-end combat power, the human race's defense line would be broken!
And the day the Water Monster Race returned would be the day Zhang Chi was secretly assassinated.
Before the plan was implemented, both sides unexpectedly calmed down.
The human cultivators did not organize a counterattack for the time being. The Divine Ability cultivators who were injured earlier needed a few days of rest. Therefore, the human race only issued a proclamation to expel the Water Monster Race from the Dragon River territory and demanded the return of the occupied land.
Not only that, the Water Monster Race should also bear all the losses caused by the war for various sects.
The Water Monster Race, who had not yet been defeated, naturally could not agree to such a treaty, so both sides continued to enter a standoff phase.
Both sides were shaking things up with great tacit understanding.
The proclamations had already been issued, and the human cultivators were definitely thinking of driving the Water Monster Race back into the sea, not just pushing them beyond the Three-Fold Bay.
The Water Monster Race was no longer striving for the strategic goal of occupying the Three-Fold Bay, but rather breaking through the territory of the Profound Heart Sect and aiming at the two upstream sects.
Both sides were making their own plans, which had nothing to do with Zhang Chi.
However, Zhang Chi was also busy.
After finishing his patrol in the morning, Long Yan hosted a small banquet and invited him over, as well as Wenren Li.
This was what she mentioned last night, hoping that Zhang Chi could recruit Wenren Li.
Because there were only three people, this meeting was relatively low-key.
Long Yan did not know that the two of them had already met and even went out of her way to introduce them, unaware that they had just had an in-depth conversation last night.
"This is Wenren Li. Yesterday, she displayed great power at a critical moment, and her strength is extremely strong, filled with righteousness.
"This is Zhang Chi, also known as 'Zhang Buqi.' His character and strength are top-notch among his peers."
The scene looked a bit like a blind date.
Zhang Chi and Wenren Li looked at each other after hearing Long Yan's description and smiled knowingly.
"I have long heard of Master Zhang's reputation. Today, seeing you in person, you truly live up to your name as a talented and outstanding individual."
"I have also heard about yesterday's incident. Miss Wenren's sense of justice is admirable."
The two of them engaged in some mutual flattery, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.
Seeing them getting along so well, Long Yan felt relieved.
She knew that both of them were passionate and upright individuals, so they should get along well.
To win over Wenren Li to Sword Sect, they had to take a different approach.
After all, Sword Sect was currently in a dire state, so perhaps Wenren Li would fall for this.
However, Long Yan was unaware that Wenren Li did indeed want to join Sword Sect.
As the saying goes, "opportunity favors those who are prepared." Joining Sword Sect would make it more convenient for Wenren Li to cultivate alongside Zhang Chi, without the need to hide.
Furthermore, joining any other faction would not be the right choice. When joining a sect, one must abide by its rules. Sword Sect was different, as the only Divine Ability, its rules were the rules.
Next, it was about reducing others' wariness.
If she were to join Celestial Melody Pavilion, Dragon Transformation Palace would be wary. If she were to join Profound Heart Sect, Celestial Melody Pavilion would also be wary.
Today, these people could be allies, defeating the Water Monster, but tomorrow they could become enemies.
The best way to avoid being targeted by others was to make them feel that she posed no threat.
Therefore, Sword Sect was the most suitable choice.
Because Sword Sect's strength was severely weakened, it could be said to pose no threat. Even with a powerful Divine Ability user, it would not be a threat to the major sects.
Wenren Li could also use this opportunity to showcase her indifference to fame and fortune. By joining the Dragon River Alliance, she could reduce constraints.
Being seen as an ally by everyone without attracting attention was just what Sword Sect needed, as they also needed a strong presence. It was a win-win situation.
Wenren Li had discussed this with Zhang Chi last night.
At that time, Zhang Chi was quite speechless. Long Yan and Wenren Li really had a tacit understanding.
Since they had already discussed it, today's performance was just going through the motions, of course, they had to make it more realistic.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Chi and Wenren Li had already acted out their roles.
First, they shared their own stories, then they praised each other's businesses, talked about their ideals, and regarded each other as kindred spirits. They were only a step away from becoming sworn siblings.
Seeing that they were getting carried away, Long Yan quickly intervened.
With her previous experience, she couldn't let Zhang Chi go around calling everyone his sister.
They could have a pleasant conversation, but recognizing each other as siblings was out of the question!
Although they hadn't officially become sworn siblings, under Zhang Chi's enthusiastic invitation, Wenren Li also joined Sword Sect.
Long Yan finally felt relieved.
She looked at Zhang Chi and Wenren Li with satisfaction and said, "I will be returning to Dragon Transformation Palace from now on. Sword Sect is the only thing I can't let go of. With Wenren as my sister, I can rest assured."
Originally, Long Yan should have been addressed as senior, but during the banquet, Wenren Li had said that they should address each other as sisters.
At this moment, Long Yan still hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation, she just felt that Wenren Li was someone she could get along with.
"Don't worry, I will take care of Sword Sect and Zhang Chi," Wenren Li's tone was a bit strange, but Long Yan didn't notice. Her intuition was sharp, but something had to trigger it.
Zhang Chi and Wenren Li behaved normally in front of him.
Gu Youyou couldn't help but comment, "She used to laugh at Chen Runyu for being dumb, but I think Chen Runyu is smarter than her."
To be honest, that's true. Chen Runyu may be a bit kind and naive, but she at least has some intelligence.
Her intelligence and combat power will skyrocket when it comes to matters related to Zhang Chi.
"Hasn't she noticed that the plot is exactly the same?"
As an onlooker, Gu Youyou naturally sees it more clearly.
What Wenren Li is doing now is exactly the path Long Yan took back then.
With her own experience, she dares to recruit female elders for Zhang Chi. She's really bold!
"Just a Gu Youyou can also mock others for being dumb. She has really grown up!"
Gu Youyou: "......"
If it weren't for the fact that I'm not physically present, you would be done after I beat you up!
After a small banquet, everyone enjoyed themselves.
After the banquet, Wenren Li released the news that she had joined Sword Sect.
Although it was a bit regrettable for the forces that tried to win her over yesterday, she didn't feel much inside.
Being associated with Sword Sect is not a cause for concern.
Everything went as Wenren Li expected.
But there was one thing that Wenren Li still couldn't figure out.
Why haven't any members of the Wenren Family come looking for her yet?
Wenren Li treads on thin ice with every step, so she naturally plans three steps ahead and doesn't dare to make any mistakes.
With her ghost clan Divine Ability, she can evade Wenren Tingyu's tracking. After eliminating the spies around her, conventional means can't track her.
The choice Wenren Family has is Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion won't easily calculate people, so they will definitely start with objects.
Wenren Li anticipated this and placed the only thing her mother gave her in the Dragon Transformation Palace.
She expected the other party to go there and have a fight with Long Yi. This was also a small revenge for Wenren Li, using the strategy of driving away the tiger and devouring the wolf, causing Wenren Family to suffer a little loss.
The fact that Long Yi was injured earlier indicated that her plan was proceeding as scheduled.
Wenren Family will definitely be even more furious after hitting this wall. In their anger, they will spare no expense to find Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion and have them calculate her location.
The rule of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is to calculate objects, not people, but it can be broken when the other party is willing to pay the price.
Wenren Family has the confidence to do this.
And Wenren Li is also convinced that Wenren Family will spare no effort to kill her.
At this point, Wenren Li has nowhere to hide.
She hasn't reached the point of transcending fate yet, so Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion will definitely find her.
Since hiding is useless, she can only reveal herself.
Just like before, being low-key won't guarantee her life, so she needs to be a bit more high-profile and let everyone know her identity.
Calculating the days, Wenren Family should have already found Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to calculate her. The timing is perfect, as Water Monster and the human race are currently in battle.
So Wenren Li revealed herself in a high-profile manner and told the story of being a descendant of the Wenren Family last night.
Everyone went crazy.
Even though Wenren Family is a prominent family in Central State, so what?
They can't just cross thousands of miles to Western State and destroy the various sects there, right?
Wenren Family can do that, but they still have some dignity.
If they lose their dignity, Wenren Li won't have a chance to come out.
As Wenren Li expected, Wenren Family should have received her message by now.
Wenren Family spent a lot of money to bribe Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, only to find out that they didn't need Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to find her. They must be furious.
Thinking about this, Wenren Li felt very happy.
However, Wenren Family still hasn't come to find her, which is very strange.
Are they really so inefficient?
She actually hopes that the people from Wenren Family will come sooner, so that things can be resolved sooner.
She has five dragon scales hidden in her pocket, each of which can condense the seeds of the Great Dao.
In other words, as long as she is given time, she will definitely break through to the Dao Integration realm.
Once she breaks through to the Dao Integration realm, unless the old relics of Wenren Family appear or they send three to five Dao Integration experts, they won't be able to do anything to her with her invincible characteristics at the same level.
The most difficult hurdle is coming, and Wenren Li's mentality is filled with excitement and a bit of nervousness.
If Wenren Family suddenly has a breakthrough and strikes hard, she won't have any chance.
In this anxious anticipation, three days passed, and there was still no one from Wenren Family coming to kill her.
On the other hand, Ao Yue has already brought five Sea Monster Monster Kings, who have infiltrated the Water Monster Race.
The true forms of these five Sea Monster Monster Kings are respectively an octopus, a shark, a crab, a sea turtle, and a flying fish.
The Divine Abilities of these five Great Monster Kings are very powerful, each with its own focus. The octopus controls interference, the shark is strong in killing, the crab can withstand and fight, the sea turtle can help allies resist most spells, and the flying fish has excellent ambush abilities.
With such a balanced team, these five Monster Kings can match the previous eight Water Monster.
The top combat power has received an epic-level enhancement, and Hong Li is full of confidence.
"Set off, avenge our fallen kin!"
