"Talk? What's the point of letting you talk nicely? "
On the third floor of Conscientious Pavilion, Gu Chen met the Clay Bodhisattva and learned about the latest developments of the three major powers of the Jade Dynasty from him. His lips curled into a mocking smile.
From the very beginning, he was the one who planned for the two sacred grounds to get involved in the battle for the mineral vein in Changxi County. Naturally, he couldn't let the storm die down just like that.
Not only could he not calm it down, but he also wanted to add fuel to the fire and make the whole Jade Dynasty even more chaotic!
"Pass down the order. Let the people of the Hidden Dragon Clan destroy these few places. We must not expose ourselves."
In the spiritual world, Gu Chen directly imprinted a few spiritual imprints into the Clay Bodhisattva's mind.
The Clay Bodhisattva sensed the information contained in the spiritual imprints, and his face quickly revealed a shocked expression.
The places that Gu Chen ordered them to destroy were the secret banks and treasure vaults of the Eight Branches Sacred Ground and the Green Willow Sacred Ground!
The specific locations of the banks and the treasure vaults, the situation of the guards, and even the arrangements for the personnel movements were all very clear in the intelligence report. It was unimaginably detailed.
He knew very well that Gu Chen's intelligence network mainly came from Conscientious Pavilion, but Conscientious Pavilion didn't know about these things. This was because he was usually the one helping Gu Chen collect and organize the intelligence!
In other words, Gu Chen had a new source of intelligence, and it was a very powerful one!
"Didn't Peach Blossom say that he's short of money to recruit spies and build an intelligence network? Destroy these places and give the harvest to him. Tell him to work hard for me. Of course, don't tell him the source of the money. It's not time yet. "
Gu Chen instructed calmly, and the Clay Bodhisattva broke out in a cold sweat.
Using the two sacred grounds' money to develop Conscientious Pavilion's intelligence network … Boss was really ruthless. If anything went wrong, there would be big trouble.
But this also showed how much importance Boss placed on him. He was the most crucial part of the whole thing, and Boss trusted him unconditionally.
"Boss wants to loot these places and then frame the two sacred grounds to make their relationship worse and make the negotiations in Changxi County fail, right?"
"If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to leave some 'evidence' of the two sacred grounds' crimes in these places?"
"Also, are we not going to attack the Jade Race's bank and treasury? In terms of wealth, the combined wealth of the two sacred grounds cannot compare to the Jade Race. "
In the beginning, the matter of leaking the information about the mineral veins in Changxi County to the two Holy Lands was handed over to the Clay Bodhisattva, so he could understand the intention of Gu Chen's series of actions very well. He could not help but ask for the details in order to handle the matter more efficiently.
"What you're doing is exposing yourself. Let me ask you, if the Eight Branches Sacred Ground really wanted to attack the Green Willow Sacred Ground, or if the Green Willow Sacred Ground really wanted to take revenge on the Eight Branches Sacred Ground, would they leave such obvious evidence? If we do that, they might find out that someone is up to no good. "
Gu Chen explained with a smile. When the Clay Bodhisattva heard this, he looked a little embarrassed. It seemed that this was really the case.
"You just have to do it beautifully and not leave any traces behind. The more there are no traces, the more the two Holy Lands will think."
"As for the Jade Race, they are indeed a piece of juicy meat, but they have the support of the Muhuang Dynasty. Every year, a large portion of their income is also contributed to the Mu Clan. It's not a wise choice to attack them rashly. The two Holy Lands do not have the guts to do so."
"Moreover, as far as I know, the Muhuang Dynasty has already sent an envoy to interfere in the dispute in Changxi County. The three parties are willing to sit down and talk, which is the result of the envoy's mediation."
"As for the Jade Race's interests in the mineral veins in Changxi County, they are almost settled. They have 95% of the interests, and the two Holy Lands have more or less accepted this share."
"The current conflict is mainly focused on the two Holy Lands. Both the Eight Branches Sacred Ground and the Green Willow Sacred Ground want more shares and are unwilling to share it equally. Therefore, it is reasonable to only attack them at this time."
Gu Chen spoke frankly with assurance. He actually revealed the real reason why the three major forces were willing to sit down and talk. This caused even more ripples in the Clay Bodhisattva's heart.
After all, most of the forces in the outside world only knew that the three major forces were angry and hurt, so they decided to talk peace. How could they know that there were other secrets?
And as far as the Clay Bodhisattva knew, Gu Chen had been staying in the Chen Clan all this time. How could he have such a detailed information network? Could it be that the Chen Clan had found out?
No!
The Chen Clan had been living in seclusion for many years, and their information network was not as strong as that of Honesty Pavilion. They definitely did not have the ability to find out all this!
The Clay Bodhisattva was filled with curiosity, but he could not directly ask Gu Chen about the source of his information. He only knew that Gu Chen would not lie to him.
If it was really as Gu Chen had said, then the wisest choice was not to attack the Jade Race. Attacking them would not only mean offending the Mu Clan, that colossus, but it might also expose the matter of instigating the two Holy Lands to fight!
"I understand. Leave it to me. Don't worry, Boss!"
The Clay Bodhisattva was reassured. He promised Gu Chen and quickly disappeared from the Mental Wander Little Pavilion.
After he left, Gu Chen reactivated the restriction on the third floor and went to the window.
"The power of information is as fierce as a tiger or a wolf. Thanks to the Heavenly Twining Silk, my business in the Jade Dynasty has progressed much faster than I expected."
Looking at the nothingness outside the window, Gu Chen sighed emotionally.
Being able to freely enter and exit the Jade Race and the two Holy Lands' Divine Wander World allowed him to easily manipulate information and toy with them.
The Jade Dynasty was the Pei Dynasty's neighbor. After forming an alliance with the Chen Clan, he began to have ideas about it.
He had originally planned to build up his information network in the Jade Dynasty step by step. He did not expect the Heavenly Twining Silk to give him such a pleasant surprise.
Since that was the case, he decided to go all out and see how he could maximize the value of the information.
"The three great powers of the Jade Dynasty are not much of a threat. The biggest problem is the Mu Clan."
As Gu Chen pondered this, his gaze gradually turned solemn. His soul followed the Heavenly Twining Silk and entered the boundary of nothingness.
The strongest dynasty in the Second Mountain and Sea had a Dao Ancestor overseeing it. All it took was an envoy to interfere, and the two Holy Lands were willing to give 95% of their shares to the Jade Race.
Without a doubt, if he wanted to change the power structure of the Jade Dynasty, the biggest problem was the Mu Clan.
How could they allow others to sleep soundly next to their bed?
The Mu Clan had probably long since regarded the Jade Dynasty as their territory. Thus, any changes in the Jade Dynasty's situation would arouse their vigilance.
Even though Gu Chen's plan had been very careful and meticulous, as long as he was the one who benefited from the development of the situation, there was a possibility that he would come into conflict with the Mu Clan.
At the moment, he did not have the slightest bit of confidence to contend against the Dao Ancestor.
Thus, it could be said that he was playing with fire. If he was not careful, he could burn himself to death!
"I need to expand the area I can explore and find the Mu Clan's Divine Wander World as soon as possible. I need to gather more information."
Gu Chen muttered to himself. Only by finding the Mu Clan's Divine Wander World and obtaining information about the Mu Clan could his plan be more stable.
Moreover, the boundary of the Mu Clan's Divine Wander World was clearly farther than he had imagined. With his current attainments in secret techniques, he had yet to discover it.
Thus, he could only bitterly cultivate his secret techniques in hopes that he could improve as quickly as possible and expand the Divine Wander World's exploration area so that he could discover this treasury as soon as possible.
