689: Zhou Wuji's revenge plan, reverse world

"Is that how it is?" Qing Qicai frowned slightly: "Then we can only wait until the experts sent by my mother arrive before this princess can help Venerable Wuqian search for that fellow roaming within Five Directions City."

The old Monk nodded slightly, also agreeing with this statement.

In his eyes, Five Directions City was currently shrouded in a veil of mystery.

Beneath this veil, no one knew what great terror was hidden!

"I have a way to find the Dark Demon that Venerable Wuqian is looking for!" Suddenly, a confident voice came from behind the two.

Hearing this familiar voice.

Qing Qicai turned her head to look.

Zhou Wuji's figure appeared very clearly in the slightly dim sky.

If it had been before, the first moment Qing Qicai saw this person, she would definitely show a sweet smile, and her body would instinctively move closer.

However, now...

Seeing the other party walking closer step by step with a confident expression, and even his gaze falling upon her, the image that she absolutely could not shake off in her mind surged up again!

Goosebumps rose on her body one after another!

Her body involuntarily took half a step back.

The woman, however, forgot that she was standing by the river.

"Ah!"

With a cry of surprise, Qing Qicai fell directly towards the river surface behind her!

"Princess, be careful!" Zhou Wuji, who was in front, saw this scene, and while a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, he channeled inner energy into his feet, his speed surged, and he directly grabbed towards Qing Qicai with one hand!

This was simply Heaven helping him, a hero saving the beauty delivered right to his doorstep!

Behind her was the icy river water.

Qing Qicai was very afraid.

But when she saw the Man in her line of sight, who took a few steps and reached out to grab her, the fear in Qing Qicai's eyes immediately doubled!

Thinking of the places this Man's hand had touched today.

In her urgency, the woman pushed off with her feet.

Qing Qicai, who had originally accidentally fallen towards the river, now put all the strength in her body into her legs and directly jumped towards the river water!

She jumped, and she jumped so decisively, with a hint of relief within the decisiveness.

"Plop~"

A splash of water erupted on the river surface.

After swimming up from the water and finding that she had not been touched by Zhou Wuji, Qing Qicai let out a long breath.

And Zhou Wuji, who was standing by the river, had a somewhat stiff expression, his face twitching with a hint of gloom.

"Haha, Seventh Princess is very good at swimming, Benefactor Zhou doesn't need to worry too much." The Venerable Wuqian beside him spoke, breaking the awkward silence.

"This old Monk just seemed to hear that Young Master Zhou, you said you have a way to find that Dark Demon this old Monk is looking for?"

Casually picking up the topic also shifted Zhou Wuji's attention.

"That's right, I have a way." Zhou Wuji said, glancing at Qing Qicai swimming towards the farther bank in the river water, then turned his head to look at Venerable Wuqian: "The demon that Venerable Wuqian is looking for should like to eat people, right?"

Zhou Wuji had activated his Physique that attracts Little Ghosts in prison, and already had a general understanding of such bizarre existences.

"That's right, this demonic creature, because of its obsession in life, loves to slaughter the most!"

"Moreover, every time it acts, it acts against those Gaopeng Families, and once it makes a move, the entire Gaopeng Family is bound to be wiped out!"

"Then wouldn't it be enough for us to pick one as bait?" Zhou Wuji's thoughts jumped quickly, and he directly proposed a plan.

"Bait?" Venerable Wuqian's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch upon hearing the Man in front of him say this so lightly: "According to what Young Master Zhou said, it could be considered a method, but how should this old Monk find the bait and at the same time ensure that the Dark Demon will be drawn into the trap?"

"Didn't Venerable Wuqian already say that the Dark Demon acts against some Gaopeng Families every time?" Zhou Wuji said this, his tone carrying some emotion of hatred towards the world: "We can consider all of these as bait."

"It's just that there are so many people in Five Directions City, with no less than two hundred large and small Gaopeng Families, the number is definitely too many."

"In my opinion, we should completely eliminate all those large and small Gaopeng Families, leaving just one, so that the Dark Demon will only have a single target to act against?!"

"This..." Venerable Wuqian's cloudy eyes slowly narrowed.

Zhou Wuji's suggestion sounded a bit crazy at first, but upon closer consideration, it did seem like a good method!

These ordinary people in Five Directions City were, in his eyes, merely like weeds, ordinary people who grew generation after generation for decades.

When the demon blade is born, all the ordinary people in the entire City will be used for blood sacrifice!

They were going to die anyway.

According to Zhou Wuji's suggestion, after eliminating those scattered Gaopeng Families, when the demonic creature has only one choice, he just needs to wait peacefully around the remaining Gaopeng Family.

"Young Master Zhou's method... is indeed not bad." Venerable Wuqian slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

In the gloomy shadows, there was a hint of coldness.

"It's just, I don't know which Gaopeng Family should be left to serve as bait?"

"Naturally, it's the Ning family!" Zhou Wuji said, and then explained: "The Ning family is the number one Gaopeng Family within Five Directions City, that demon killing so many people will definitely take more time, and we will also have more time to prepare."

"The Ning family..." Venerable Wuqian nodded slightly.

Although he understood that within Five Directions City, there was definitely at least one hidden existence that could challenge him and Yuwen Mingxuan!

But they were just some mundane Gaopeng Families.

The other existence, being an existence with a Bloodline, definitely wouldn't treat the lives of these ordinary people as a big deal.

"Benefactor Zhou is indeed worthy of being the great talent in the mouth of Seventh Princess, having devised such a scheme just through conversation, this old Monk is impressed." Venerable Wuqian chuckled, not having any strange views towards Zhou Wuji.

Although what Zhou Wuji did today was quite explosive.

But Venerable Wuqian has traveled North and South for so many years, and has seen quite a few explosive things, so he is already quite indifferent to it.

"You flatter me." Zhou Wuji said humbly, slightly clenching his fist.

The Ning family!

If it weren't for the brothel operated by the Ning family being by the river today, how could he have done such a thing!

This grudge, let's start by drawing the curtain open from the Ning family!

The Ning family.

Ning Buxiu, through the surveillance shown to him by the System, clearly saw the conversation between Zhou Wuji and Venerable Wuqian.

To Venerable Wuqian, Five Directions City was wrapped in a veil of mystery.

But to Ning Buxiu, there were no secrets at all.

Saving the recording of their conversation as evidence, this thing would be useful later for putting Zhou Wuji back in prison.

Looking at the money piled high in the room and the gold and silver placed in the courtyard, he then opened his personal panel.

Yesterday, his strength more than doubled, and Ning Buxiu consumed a total of nearly a million taels of silver.

This was already equivalent to the tax revenue of over 400,000 people in the entire Five Directions City for more than a year.

And even after consuming so much, the money in the courtyard was still a lot, even more than what was piled up yesterday!

"390 years of cultivation, it might still be a bit lacking." Glancing at the Dao Rhythm token beside him, Ning Buxiu closed his eyes and chose to spend money to improve.

In the original work, he only briefly mentioned this area of the Five Directions City Reverse World where the demon blade was located.

Other than stating that it was very dangerous inside, there were no specific descriptions.

Therefore, Ning Buxiu now planned to increase his strength further, so that he would have more assurance when entering the Five Directions City Reverse World.

It was also when Ning Buxiu closed his eyes to spend money.

In the room, there was some additional movement.

A hand like warm jade picked up the Dao Rhythm token on the table.

"Reverse World." Looking at the item in his hand, the Man whispered softly.

In contemplation, a vortex slowly opened as the Man's thoughts stirred, following the flow of the Dao Rhythm token's aura!

The Man was naturally Ye Tian.

Only he could make Ning Buxiu completely unaware of the changes in the room.

His appearance at this moment was clearly because of the so-called Reverse World.

The Reverse World was not unique to Five Directions City.

Beneath this, was a place so grand it was like an alternative Hell!

Ghost Weapons, demon soldiers, sacred soldiers, demon blades, and even divine soldiers and Dao Artifacts all circulated out from within!

The Reverse World of this World is the source of all bizarre disasters, and also represents absolute danger!

It was precisely because of this that Ye Tian appeared.

Without something special, he wouldn't be interested.

While he was at it, he would also help the Host scout the area.

A place equivalent to the Origin of the World, if it were on the Host, the methods that could be used would be very limited, he could only personally go and explore the path.
