In the empty, quiet room, Pei Xuanjing fondled the page of the Netherworld’s Book, which was neither gold nor jade, in his hands.

Bai Xiaosheng walked in with a smile, saying sarcastically, “Indeed, only interests can inspire one’s greatest potential.”

For Bai Xiaosheng, he had witnessed this scene many tis before; it was almost a commonplace sight for him.

However, every ti he saw it, Bai Xiaosheng always had a different feeling.

“There is great terror between life and death!” Pei Xuanjing raised his head, pointing at his counterpart and himself, sneering, “Aren’t the struggles you and I go through also for the sake of profit?”

“Hahaha. Brother Pei speaks the truth. People hustle and bustle in the world for profit. I was too blind to realize. We are all driven by profit. Why would we look down on others?”

Bai Xiaosheng closed his folding fan with a wry smile.

Pei Xuanjing asked, “Has the pri minister made any response?”

He had co to Tiandu with such a fanfare. Although he had only exposed his intentions to Wang Qiong’s party, it was impossible for the pri minister to ignore such a matter during such a sensitive period.

Bai Xiaosheng replied, “Your man has had contact with the pri minister, and although he had not t the pri minister himself, it’S clear that he already knows our intentions.”

“Oh?” A flicker of interest appeared in Pei Xuanjing’s eyes, “And how did they reply?”

When referring to revealing their intentions, they weren’t completely open as they were with Wang Qiong’s party and stated their goals directly.

After all, they hadn’t had much contact with the pri minister before, and couldn’t be as direct as Wang Qiong.

Their excuse for contacting Yang Tinghe was that Pei Xuanjing now had a firm footing in the martial arts world and had managed to recruit many followers, with the intention of reestablishing the Shenxiao Sect.

His purpose of coming to Tiandu this ti was to reach a resolution with the royal family and the imperial court of the Great Ming, to dissolve the old resentnt, and to reestablish Shenxiao Sect.

Pei Xuanjing wondered whether this excuse could deceive the other party, which was why he wanted to see how the other party responded.

“He did not make a definite response.” Bai Xiaosheng gently waved his fan, and then explained the other party’s attitude with so profundity, “Yet there was a subtle hint; if you agree to serve him, he might assist you in the future.”

“Heh, how presumptuous!” A hint of anger showed on Pei Xuanjing’s face. Despite his calm deanor now, he couldn’t help but feel irked by this response.

The so-called serving was rely a euphemism.

In truth, he was asking Pei Xuanjing to beco his subordinate, his executioner. In less polite terms, to be his dog.

Even soone as powerful as Pei Xuanjing was considered by them to be nothing more than a brute who only knows the use of brute force. They didn’t take him seriously.

In the end, these people have held power for too long. Their sycophants had nearly made them lose sight of who they really were, making them believe that everyone should serve and seek their favor.

If it weren’t for Wang Boan’s acquaintance with Pei Xuanjing, his knowledge about how strong Pei Xuanjing really was, and the great power he commanded, Wang Qiong probably would not have paid much attention to Pei Xuanjing.

Bai Xiaosheng said somberly, “The long period of peace has made them forget the days when the bones of officials littered the Heavenly Street, and the imperial treasury was burned to ashes.” He had long been disenchanted with these people.

Even with a high status in the martial arts world, in the eyes of those people, he was still a martial artist, unworthy of respect.

“Heh.” Pei Xuanjing chuckled, speaking calmly, “There’s no need to rush. What’s ant to co will eventually co.”

When the plan succeeds, it will be ti for them to settle their scores.

Even if they can’t deal with everyone, they can still deal with so.

At least, at this ti, even if it’s just to appease the people and win the hearts of the world, they should take the heads of so people as tokens.

Bai Xiaosheng also chuckled and nodded, “Indeed. I have been looking forward to that day for a long ti.”

“Good things co to those who wait, so there’s no need to rush.” Pei Xuanjing’s smile was cold.

Bai Xiaosheng abruptly changed the subject, “Just now, I saw Pang Hong leave. He seed to be heading into the city.”

Pei Xuanjing didn’t conceal anything and said, “My Brother Lin is now a Commanding Officer of the Brocade Guards.”

After Jiang Bin assud the position of the Commanding General of the Brocade Guards, Lin Qingyi, whom he regarded as a confidant, also rose rapidly in rank and fortune.

In less than ten years, he had risen from the position of a thousand households to the position of the Commanding Officer of the Brocade Guards. Plus, relying on the nurous resources and rarities offered by the Brocade Guards, he entered the realm of a second-class martial artist not long ago.

In addition to his special identity in the Brocade Guards, he can be considered a high-ranking official in Tiandu.

“Your intelligence seems a bit outdated.” Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Pei Xuanjing, “According to my latest information, it seems that he is likely to be promoted soon.”

Not long ago, during the upheaval in Tiandu, although the Brocade Guards suffered so losses, Pang Hong managed to kill several rebellious high -level martial artists and made considerable contributions, erging unscathed.

It was rumored that because the Brocade Guards lost a Commanding Aide-de-Camp during the recent Tiandu upheaval, Jiang Bin was considering promoting him to this position. If it weren’t for the current unstable situation and fear of drawing too much attention, his promotion would have been announced long ago.

“Oh?” Pei Xuanjing understood and said, “It seems I made a good move, didn’t I?”

Bai Xiaosheng agreed, “Yes, you did!”

Pei Xuanjing laughed, “Now that everything’s ready, all we need is a favorable wind.”

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled and nodded, “Now we are just waiting for His Highness to enter Tiandu.”

All the preparations had been made, and they were just waiting for His Highness Prince Xing to enter Tiandu.

If Wang Qiong agreed to cooperate, they would jointly support Prince Xing to ascend the throne.

But if Wang Qiong refused, then Pei Xuanjing and his allies would execute their backup plan.

As for the outco and whether they could bear the consequences, it remained unknown.

Before that, Pei Xuanjing decided to retreat and cultivate in Baiyun Temple, leaving everything to Bai Xiaosheng and his associates.

His custom-made Lightning Rod Frawork had been completed, so Pei Xuanjing could take advantage of it to further refine and spiritualize his body.

As Jingzhe arrived, the temperature rose, spring thunder began to rumble, rain increased, and everything sprang back to life.

Normally, the spring thunder during Jingzhe wasn’t noteworthy.

However, many people around Baiyun Temple noticed that this year’S spring thunder seed to last much longer than in previous years.

For half a month, thunder keep booming every day, shaking the sky..
