Chapter 444.1
Planning (3)
The plan of Li Yunqi and the others is very simple. They want to form an alliance against Wuling City and redefine the distribution of interests.
But this matter is easier said than done.
At present, including the Li family of Jianfeng City, thirty-three big and small families, forces, and sects have already expressed their intention to overthrow the City Lord Mansion of Wuling City.
Don’t look at the numbers that say they have thirty-three forces, which seem huge, but in fact, even if they are all added together, they are not confident that they can beat Wuling City alone.
Even then, the strength of Wuling City itself is still second, and the most terrible thing is the supporters behind Wuling City.
Needless to say, Yunjian Pavilion, Taixuan Sacred Land, Jiuyin Sacred Land, Jiuyou Sacred Land, Longhua Temple, Ziqing Sacred Land, Tiangang Sword Sect… the combination of multiple super first-class forces is enough to overwhelm the entire Dongzhou, let alone these thirty-three families, factions, and sects.
So, from the very beginning, they had no intention of completely overthrowing Wuling City. Their actual purpose is to remove Wuling City from holding the reins of the entire interest group and establish a new system that is more in line with their interests.
To put it simply, it is to only target Wuling City, and then reach a settlement with the supporters behind Wuling City through diplomatic mediation and division of interests.
But if they want to do this step, they have to pay attention to the scale of action.It doesn’t matter if the beating is not painful or itchy, let alone beating too much. And more importantly, when necessary, a person who can take the scapegoat must be introduced, so as to explain to all parties.
At present, the alliance has been formed, and the process has been finalized, but the process is stuck on the choice of the person to take the blame.
Among the various families, forces, and sects involved in this plan, no one is a real fool.
No one wants to be the one who takes the blame, so the alliance has not made a move for a long time.
Although the forces of various parties have been discussed and wrangled countless times in private each time, there has been no result.
No matter how many benefits are promised, no one is willing to take the position of leader of this alliance.
After all, no matter how many benefits were promised, they have to be alive to enjoy it!
Just when they were at a loss, Ling Tian suddenly appeared.
As the only son of the city lord of Wuling City, Feng Lingyu is also the only grandson of the owner of the Yunjian Pavilion and the hall master of Xiaoyao Hall.
They had never heard of anyone who dared to challenge Feng Lingyu, let alone compete with Feng Lingyu for his fiancée.
But this Ling Tian not only dared to challenge but also aimed at grabbing his fiancée.
This kind of behavior can be said to be extremely reckless, but it also made Li Yunqi and the others’ faces shine.
Isn’t this kind of brainless talent exactly what they need?
Li Yunqi and the others spoke out in support of Ling Tian, not only in an attempt to make Feng Lingyu lose face but also to establish a good relationship with Ling Tian and pave the way for cooperation between the two parties.
Their intention of making Feng Lingyu lose face ended in failure, but cooperation with Ling Tian can be put on the agenda.
So Li Yunqi sent someone to invite Ling Tian over.
If Feng Shao were here, he would definitely feel emotional. Isn’t this scene the reappearance of the events that happened with Chu Qing?
The reason why Chu Qing was able to entangle so many forces to besiege Ziqing Sacred Land at the beginning was that all parties wanted to get benefits, but none of them wanted to take responsibility.
The so-called law does not blame the public, as long as they are not the ones who led the action. Even if the Ziqing Sacred Land wants to liquidate them all, it will be difficult to liquidate everyone on its own.
What happened later also confirmed their thoughts.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ziqing Sacred Land was able to complete its counterattack and stage a comeback with the help of Wuling City and Tiangang Sword Sect.
First, Tianlei City was washed with blood, and then they beat Chongyang Sword Sect and Xuanlei Sect to the ground.
Seeing this, the other forces obediently offered compensation immediately.
Although the other forces lost a lot of wealth, at least there was no loss in personnel.
Ziqing Sacred Land did not have the strength to kill so many forces in one go, so it could only agree to this settlement plan.
In addition, although the Chongyang Sword Sect and the other forces mainly took action, the outside world interpreted it as a conflict of interest.
It was Chu Qing who bore all the infamy.
Although Chu Qing is the leader of the alliance and has an extraordinary status, in fact, he was simply pushed out by all the forces to take the blame.
After carrying the blame, he became useless.
That was why, in the end, apart from that silly old man Qin Tianshu, no one supported Chu Qing anymore.
Now, the same scene is happening again, but this time, it is Ling Tian being chosen by Li Yunqi and the others, and he is now the best candidate to take the blame and receive the anger of the super-first-class forces behind Wuling City.
So the question is… will Ling Tian be fooled?
The answer is… yes.
Ling Tian’s eyes lit up immediately, but he still pretended to be reserved and asked, “Then how do you guys plan to overthrow the City Lord Mansion of Wuling City?”
