Chapter Thirty-Eight: Killed Too Early

  "So, this battle for the world's top, will actually only unfold between Tie Butian and Di Wu Qingrou! And what Di Wu Qingrou fears most is Tie Butian! So no matter what, he would rather take a detour of thousands of miles than to kill Tie Butian first!"

  "So our task is to keep Tie Bu Tian's life, because after all we are from Da Zhao, once Tie Bu Tian dies, we will be the most suspicious and will be destroyed by Tie Yun Country in the first time to avenge. And Da Zhao will not let us traitors live either."

  Chu Yang finished his analysis in one breath. Only then did he realize that all the key points were focused on one person: Tie Butian!

  A seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, actually made the fifth gentle-like world's number one hero regard him as a thorn in his eye and a knife to his heart! Then, just how demonic was this youth?

  In his previous life, Chu Yang only knew that Tie Butian was assassinated at Kai Tian Gorge and that he had a high reputation; but he never paid attention to these things and just listened to them. At this moment, thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine!

  A seventeen- or eighteen-year-old who can already rival the fifth gentle and elegant!

  Absolutely not an easy-going person!

  This reminded Chu Yang of the legendary figure from three days ago, Liu Yongxiang, the unparalleled and invincible swordmaster. This peerless legend, who was already a living myth as the Martial Saint, wasn't he just like the fifth gentle and elegant genius?

  There is also the generation of evil masters who dominated the three realms, Ao Xuan! He was young and traveled the world with evil intentions! There is also the mysterious woman Jun Xi Zhu who controls the dark side of the entire three realms!

  These people, along with Tie Butian and Di Fifth Gentleman, should all be those kinds of geniuses that are hard to come by in a thousand years!

  Luckily they are scattered in three places! Otherwise, it's really unknown what kind of situation this world would be in...

  "There's another thing you've overlooked." Wu Yunliang looked at him with a look of appreciation: "As long as we help Tie Butian defeat the Fifth Lightness, we'll be credited with a great achievement, equivalent to being a founding minister! Our Tianwai Building will rise to prominence in one move! And, as long as we operate properly, during this period, we can eliminate all hidden dangers within Tianwai Building!"

  Chu Yang let out a bitter laugh. Defeating the Fifth Gentleman? How easy could it be! The Fifth Gentleman had never been defeated in either politics or battle!

  Wanting to defeat him... it's tough. Chu Yang thought this in his heart, and suddenly became vigilant: Wu Yun Liang was right. Since he had decided to defy fate this time, then facing the fifth lightness was an indispensable thing!

  If you still hold this kind of weak and fragile mindset, you will surely lose!

  Must win! At the very least, let Tie Butian live on and shatter the fifth gentle plan! Change the fate entirely and grasp it in one's own hands!

  Whether it's Tianwailou or Tandang, there is also Shifu.

  There is also light dance!

  Thinking about it, Wu Yun let out a cool sigh and said slowly: "Speaking of this matter, Chu Yang, you made a huge mistake in this matter! The mistake you made completely disrupted my original plan! It can't even proceed."

  Chu Yang was shocked and said, "What? I made a mistake?" He thought to himself, "I didn't do anything. How did I suddenly become guilty of ten evils?"

  "You killed Shi Qianshan! You killed him too early!" Wu Yunliang sighed: "Shi Qianshan was an indispensable part of my plan!"

  Chu Yang's eyebrows furrowed: "Shi Qianshan?"

  "Not bad, Shi Qianshan may be cunning and sinister at heart, but on the surface, he is mature and steady. Moreover, he is good at observing words and colors, flattering and fawning, although I have some contempt for this disciple, he is indeed a good candidate for mixing in official circles." Wu Yunliang sighed.

  "What's with 'mixing in official circles'?" Chu Yang was startled, what did this have to do with mixing in official circles?

  "I originally planned to have one person leave Tianwai Building with an absolutely secret identity and enter Tieyun Country, best as the crown prince's confidant. Firstly, it can guarantee the crown prince's safety at all times, secondly, in case of future success, it can become someone who can speak for me on behalf of Tianwai Building."

  Wu Yun said solemnly, "We must rise to the challenge and bear such great risks; what we want is not just a simple Jianghu door. But at that time, if there is no one in the imperial court, even if it's a great achievement, it will be in vain if no one mentions it. At some critical moments, someone must stand up. Using flowers, gold and silver to bribe officials can work, but such people are unreliable."

  Chu Yang nodded in agreement with this statement: if he could be bought by you, then he could also be bought by others. He might even be bought by Fifth Gentleman!

  That's it, I'm done for.

  It's most reassuring when it's someone you know who goes in.

  "I originally wanted to send Shi Qianshan into Tieyun, but he was killed by you." Wu Yunliang snorted.

  "Shi Qian Shan, as a master, can also poison people. At critical moments, betraying one's sect is not a big deal either. I think that if I kill him, it would be getting rid of a hidden danger!" Chu Yang retorted.

  This is when conditions are discussed.

  Hearing the song, he knew the elegant meaning. Chu Yang listened once and knew what Wu Yun Liang was planning to do with him, and naturally wouldn't easily fall for it. Although this goal was completely consistent with his purpose, in his heart, he had already agreed a thousand times over. But how could he let go of this opportunity to strike the bamboo?

  "I had originally planned to send two elite men, one to Da Zhao and the other to Tie Yun. The one going to Da Zhao would be responsible for gathering information and also for saving a few lives in case of an emergency, preserving the legacy. But after some thought, I gave up on that idea. No matter how beneficial it may seem, it's still a way out. With a way out, you can't give it your all."

  "Shi Qianshan, you killed him too early." Wu Yunliang sighed and surprisingly repeated the sentence again.

  "Yes, it's too early." Chu Yang also had this feeling in his heart.

  "These past few days, I've been observing you." Wu Yun Liang said deeply: "You, Chu Yang, have a profound mind, with deep and far-reaching plans, ruthless and cunning, with a thick enough face, and decisive actions that don't drag things out. A personality like yours is suited for great accomplishments. In any aspect, you surpass Shi Qian Shan by a hundred times! But the three greatest advantages that Shi Qian Shan possesses, you do not have."

  "What are the three advantages?" Chu Yang nodded and said: "The first should be lowliness, the second should be opportunism, flattering and fawning. Speaking to people in their own language, speaking to ghosts in their own language; The third is that for the sake of achieving one's goal, one will stop at nothing!"

  "Great!" Wu Yunliang clapped his hands: "Do you think this is a bad guy? These three advantages can't even be said to be advantages, but rather a scoundrel?"

  "No! I don't think so at all," Chu Yang said seriously. "Although I won't do it that way, I have my own methods when doing things."

  "Not bad, these three things, if a person has them, then that person is a piece of crap, but in the official circles and politics, they are essential elements!" Wu Yunliang sneered with a smile.

  "Ever since you last fought with Qu Ping, I've been coming to see you every two or three days. You're doing great; you've also become aware of your own shortcomings and often pay attention to Shi Qianshan, finding ways to make up for them from him; I'm delighted!"

  Wu Yun sighed: "Unfortunately, Shi Qian Shan was blinded by his own desires and ultimately brought about his own downfall. But you killed him too early; if you had let him beg for mercy, he would have certainly wept and come up with all sorts of excuses to plead for forgiveness. In the end, although you would still have had to kill him, in your heart you would have felt that perhaps what this person said was not entirely unreasonable."

  "This is a very important lesson! But you raised your hand to kill, and missed this lesson." Wu Yunliang said: "Life always has adversity, fighting alone in the political whirlpool, and still with an identity equivalent to an undercover agent, even more so facing the disaster of being beheaded at any time; At this critical moment, begging for mercy is sometimes the greatest wisdom. Only by keeping one's life can one say that they have gained the opportunity to do other things!"

  Chu Yang fell silent for a moment before asking quietly: "Master Uncle, the things you said, can you do them yourself? Even if you can, are you willing to?"

  The dark cloud froze in place.

  These past few days, I've been pulling all-nighters almost every day. Setting up this part of the plot has exhausted my brain. But finally, it's all set up, and you could say that the entire first volume's plot for the next three days is complete. Ah, I'm so tired that I'm seeing stars.

  Just a few days ago, I mentioned the update time, but unfortunately, after an all-nighter, wanting to get up at 9 o'clock to update is simply impossible. That's too much of a test for my laziness...

  So let's delay it a bit, if there are no unexpected events, the first update will be at 11 o'clock, okay? Today's chapter is set to be updated on schedule.
