Senior brother, stop it, you are the villain!

Lei Guang's words were sincere, and it really sounded like that was what happened. Chu Qing did not doubt that he was there, and said calmly: "I would like to thank you in advance if the Lord of Lei City has such a heart. However, if you want to deal with Feng Shao and the Tiangang Sword Sect, you must take a long-term approach."

After all, he wasn't too arrogant and knew that Wuling City and Tiangang Sword Sect were not that easy to deal with. But in his heart, he still thinks that he has a good chance of winning.

At this time, Gu Sheng, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked: "City Master Lei, there is something in my heart that I want to ask you. I don't know whether I should talk about it or not?"

Lei Guang nodded and said, "Miss Gu, it doesn't matter if you say so."

Gu Sheng said in a deep voice: "The little girl heard that the Chongyang Sword Sect and the Xuanlei Sect were ambushed by the Tiangang Sword Sect at the foot of the mountain seven days ago and suffered heavy losses. However, the little girl has not seen it with her own eyes, so she is doubtful. Lei Since the City Lord is a disciple of the Xuan Lei Sect, he may know more about this matter, and I hope that the City Lord Lei can elaborate on this matter."

Gu Sheng's plan was to first estimate the strength of the Tiangang Sword Sect and whether the rumored weapons that were beyond common sense in Wuling City had been equipped on a large scale by the Tiangang Sword Sect. Therefore, she needs to know more precise information to make a more accurate judgment.

After Lei Guang pondered for a moment, he sighed and said: "To be honest, this matter is indeed true. No one expected that the Tiangang Sword Sect would do such a deed, which is really hard to guard against. Now we are all in danger. , I’m afraid that one day the Tiangang Sword Sect will come knocking on my door.”

Lei Guang was also an astute person, so he naturally understood Gu Sheng's intentions. Therefore, his answer is as good as unsaid. Gu Sheng couldn't help but frown after hearing this. After thinking for a moment, he simply stopped going around in circles and asked: "I wonder if the disciples of the Tiangang Sword Sect are using evil weapons obtained from Wuling City?"

"This..." Lei Guang looked embarrassed, "Miss Gu, I really don't know how to answer your question. The people who participated in the battle that day were all disciples of Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect. Specifically, Only they know the situation. I am thousands of miles away, and although I sent people to conduct a detailed investigation afterwards, they did not find out anything. "

Having said this, Lei Guang returned an apologetic look to Gu Sheng.

But in Gu Sheng's heart, she didn't really believe Lei Guang's words. This old fox obviously didn't want to talk. As for why she didn't want to say it, she had some guesses in her mind.

If it was as she suspected, maybe she could find out the real situation through other means.

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng stopped asking and just nodded to Lei Guang to thank him.

At this time, Yang Youqing suddenly said with dissatisfaction: "It's true, brother, but when brother Chu Qing needed him, he was of no use at all. Our Chongyang Sword Sect is also a super sect in Beizhou, is it really true? Are you afraid of the Tiangang Sword Sect?"

Tiangang Sword Sect and Chongyang Sword Sect both have the word "Sword Sect" in their names, and they have always been dissatisfied with each other. In Yang Youqing's heart, even if the Tiangang Sword Sect is stronger than his own sect, it is only so strong. If the Chongyang Sword Sect were to fight against the Tiangang Sword Sect at the foot of Chongyang Mountain, there would be no reason to lose to the Tiangang Sword Sect given the convenient location. However, the Chongyang Sword Sect suffered a defeat.

So Yang Youqing felt that his brother was so incompetent that he was bullied right at home.

The reason why she didn't say that the head was incompetent was because the head, Yang Shaoling, was her biological father. As a daughter, Yang Youqing could not find fault with her father even if she was arrogant.

Lei Guangze smiled bitterly and said: "Miss Yang doesn't know. Although the Chongyang Sword Sect lost in this battle, it was not due to lack of strength. The reason was that the Tiangang Sword Sect was too shameless. My brother is a handsome gentleman, and sincerely It is difficult to see through such conspiracies, so it is not surprising that the battle failed.”

Yang Youqing sighed and said, "Then what should we do now? Neither our sect nor the Xuanlei Sect can take action, so are we allowed to fight against the Tiangang Sword Sect?"

Lei Guang said: "At this point, we have no retreat and can only fight. Fortunately, we have Brother Chu Qing. I believe that under the leadership of Brother Chu Qing, we will definitely be able to win back the victory!"

Lei Guang's gesture made both Chu Qing and Yang Youqing smile. Gu Sheng, on the other hand, looked at Lei Guang with his brows furrowed.

After eating, Lei Guang arranged for Chu Qing and others to go back to their rooms to rest. But not long after, Gu Sheng asked Lei Guang for a private meeting.

Lei Guang agreed without much hesitation.

In Lei Guang's study, Lei Guangping withdrew the servants, asked Gu Sheng to sit down, and then asked, "Miss Gu is here. Is there anything important to discuss?"

Gu Sheng nodded and said: "Lord Lei, this little lady still has doubts about this covenant. I hope Lord Lei can clear up my doubts."

Lei Guang nodded and said, "Miss Gu, it doesn't matter if you say so."

Gu Sheng said: "My little lady remembers that the signatures on the invitation are Yang Hao and Gong Shenglong. I wonder where these two people are now? Will they appear at the alliance meeting?"

After Lei Guang pondered for a moment, he said: "Miss Gu, before answering this question, I hope you can answer me a question first."

"Excuse me, Lord Lei City."

Lei Guang looked into Gu Sheng's eyes and asked word for word: "I wonder if Miss Gu still has confidence in Chu Qing now?"

Regarding Lei Guang's question, Gu Sheng did not show any surprise. Instead, he asked meaningfully: "I wonder what the 'confidence' that City Lord Lei refers to?"

Lei Guang said bluntly: "Miss Gu, do you think Brother Chu can defeat Wuling City and Tiangang Sword Sect and become the real leader of Beizhou?"

Gu Sheng did not answer this question directly, but sighed: "As far as I know, Beizhou has never had anyone who can sit firmly in the position of leader for a long time."

Although there was no direct answer, Gu Sheng's words were equivalent to an answer. Obviously, she did not think Chu Qing could be the one who broke history.

Lei Guang smiled slightly and asked again: "Then I wonder what kind of person can become the real leader of Beizhou in Miss Gu's mind?"

Gu Sheng said lightly: "Forgive me for being stupid and unable to answer this question."

Lei Guang then asked: "Does Miss Gu think that people like Yang Hao and Gong Shenglong can't become the leader of Beizhou?"

Gu Sheng suddenly laughed: "I don't quite understand this question from City Lord Lei. Could it be that in City Lord Lei's heart, he actually hopes that there will be a leader in Beizhou?"

Lei Guang looked into Gu Sheng's eyes, and Gu Sheng smiled in response. After a long time, the two of them laughed at the same time.

Lei Guang smiled and said, "Miss Gu is really kind-hearted and intelligent. Chu Qing is lucky to have your help."

Gu Sheng smiled and said, "Lord Lei is too kind. I am just a little daughter of the Gu family and my knowledge is limited. If what I said just now offends you, I hope Lord Lei will not take it to heart."

Lei Guang shook his head and said, "Miss Gu is too modest. There are probably not many people who can see through the situation except Miss Gu. As for Miss Gu's previous question, I will tell you frankly here."

He paused and said, "Yang Hao and Gong Shenglong will both appear at the meeting."

Gu Sheng nodded, "So they are here to recommend Chu Qing is the leader, right? "

Lei Guang smiled and said, "Yes. Because there is no one more suitable than Chu Qing for this position. "

Gu Sheng asked again, "Then I wonder if the two of them have the confidence to defeat Wuling City and Tiangang Sword Sect?"

Lei Guang smiled helplessly and said, "In fact, before asking this question, Miss Gu had the answer in her heart, right? Although she was very unwilling, she had to admit that the strength of Wuling City and Tiangang Sword Sect is no longer what it used to be. Even if Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect can win the battle, it will be a miserable defeat at most. But no one will be willing to accept this result. "

After hearing Lei Guang's last words, Gu Sheng immediately understood.

Tiangang Sword Sect, Ziqing Holy Land, Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect, as the four super sects in Beizhou, have existed for thousands of years. During these thousands of years, the four major sects have had many conflicts with each other, and it is not uncommon to fight or even go to war.

But no matter how the four major sects fight, they always leave room and will not really destroy each other. This is the reason why the four major sects have been able to exist for thousands of years. Although the Chongyang Sword Sect and the Xuanlei Sect joined forces with many aristocratic families to wipe out the Ziqing Holy Land, they will not really destroy the inheritance of the Ziqing Holy Land. The reason is that the four major sects are restraining each other. Once one party breaks the balance, it will inevitably attract the fear of other sects.

This truth is not only understood by the Chongyang Sword Sect and the Xuanlei Sect, but also by the Tiangang Sword Sect.

The two sides are now in a full-scale war, but the Tiangang Sword Sect has no intention of destroying these two sects. The main purpose of the Tiangang Sword Sect is still the word "deterrence", forcing the two major sects not to dare to start a war again for at least a hundred years. In order to achieve this goal, the Tiangang Sword Sect must beat the two major sects to death until they feel the pain.

If possible, the Tiangang Sword Sect does not mind repeating the experience of the Ziqing Holy Land on Chongyang Mountain and Xuanlei Mountain.

Now that the tone has been set, the development of the situation will naturally become clear.

Gu Sheng nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that Yang Hao and Gong Shenglong are not here just for the alliance. But I am very curious, will Tiangang Sword Sect be willing to accept the statements of Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect?"

Lei Guang shook his head and said: "I don't know, and no one in Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect knows. Maybe only Tiangang Sword Sect knows. But whether they are willing to accept it is one thing, and whether we express our attitude is another."

Gu Sheng pondered for a long time, and suddenly her eyes lit up. In her mind, she already had a rough outline of the future development of the whole situation.

If she guessed correctly, perhaps this alliance could really change the overall power structure of Beizhou.

It's just that there is no place for Chu Qing on the map of this power structure...
