In this huge conspiracy, Yang Dingtian's role was definitely not as honorable as Yun Cailin's!
Although he did not participate in the entire conspiracy, he had watched it unfold and develop without doing anything!
Moreover, Qin Wanchou was the mastermind behind the entire conspiracy.
The source of the conspiracy was Qin Wanchou's strategic blackmail, forcing Yun Junnu to marry him and forcing Yun Cailin to hand over the crystal power source.
Now, the conspiracy had succeeded!
However, Yang Dingtian was not very happy. Even Qin Wanchou, the mastermind, was not very happy.
Why?
Because the final development of the matter had exceeded their original expectations. It had exceeded the scope of Qin Wanchou and Yang Dingtian's control.
In fact, Yang Dingtian and Qin Wanchou had already felt slightly uneasy when Zhongzhou's sects were massacred a few times.
This was because Zhu Qingzhu had been too ruthless in order to regain his power.
He had directly massacred four sects and killed hundreds of thousands of people through the plague.
Of course, Yang Dingtian was heartbroken by the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people. However, this was not the main reason for his and Qin Wanchou's uneasiness.
Zhu Qingzhu had not made a move. Once he made a move, he was more decisive than Qin Wanchou had imagined.
He had already involved all the martial forces in Zhongzhou.
Qin Wanchou wanted to bait the Black Heaven Sect, not all the martial forces in the Zhongzhou Tiandō League.
The Council of Light wanted to destroy the Black Heaven Sect, not the entire Zhongzhou martial arts world.
Therefore, this conspiracy had already expanded, and Qin Wanchou could no longer control it.
Originally, when Zhu Qingzhu first pointed the spearhead at the Cloud Sky Pavilion and Earthshattering City, everything was still under control.
At that time, although the forces in Zhongzhou had already been involved, they could still control it.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Qingzhu did not make a move at that time. Instead, he suppressed it for a while before involving the Vulture Sect. In the end, the entire conspiracy had completely exploded.
The Cloud Sky Pavilion and Earthshattering City had already fallen to hell.
The most important thing now was that the entire Zhongzhou and Vulture Sect had been involved.
The West State Council of Light wanted to eliminate Zhu Qingzhu. If all the forces in Zhongzhou were involved and attacked the Cloud Sky Pavilion and Earthshattering City, Qin Wanchou's plan to eliminate Zhu Qingzhu alone would basically be ruined.
…
In the past few months, the reconstruction of Western Capital had almost been completed. The headquarters of the Council of Light could be moved to Western Capital at any time.
In fact, many departments of the Council of Light had already moved to Xijing. Tang Bozhao and Song Lihua had led a large number of civil officials into Xijing.
Moreover, the secret manufacturing base on Fire Island had been moved to the southern island of Xijing.
From now on, Fire Island would only be the location of the Eastern Fleet.
Right now, Yan City was only the center of the Southeast Defense Region and was guarded by Qiu Wanjie. Of course, there were still five hundred thousand elite soldiers scattered around Yan City.
As the easternmost city in the West Continent, it was fully armed to the teeth.
The coastal artillery and secret submarine forces covered the entire sea.
Now, the cleansing operation had come to an end.
In the end, things didn't go as Yang Dingtian had expected. The number of people who died in this purge exceeded the limit set by Yang Dingtian, exceeding 100,000.
Yang Dingtian had greatly underestimated the resistance of those vassals. When you touched their lifeblood, it was like hitting a rock with an egg. They would actually fight to the death.
However, it went very smoothly and the casualties to the citizens were minimal.
Duan Ruyan and Li Guinong led the Southwest Army to cleanse the entire Southwest Continent.
The construction of the Southernmost City in the Southwest Continent was also very smooth. Currently, more than half of it was completed.
Therefore, the land policy in the Southwest Continent was actually the most thorough.
In the end, Duan Ruyan and Li Guinong directly suggested that the land policy in the Southwest Continent be exactly the same as Cloud Sky City's. They would directly give the land to the free people to cultivate and then pay taxes.
Even though Qiu Wanjie had some objections to this point, it was a foregone conclusion in the end.
As a result, the entire Southwest Continent underwent a huge change.
Originally, everyone thought that the Southwest Continent was a barbarian land, an ominous land with many mountains, forests, and fields.
Moreover, it was definitely sparsely populated.
At this moment, the entire Southwest Continent was 6,000 miles long and 8,000 miles wide.
And the registered citizens were only slightly more than three million.
This population was far from the number of savages in the Southern Barbarian Continent.
However, who would have thought that after the Southwest Army cleaned up the miscellaneous factions and announced the land policy?
Countless people emerged from the depths of the mountains and forests, as well as from the wilderness.
As a result, the registered population of the Southwest Continent increased. Now, it had exceeded ten million and was still increasing.
As a result, the Council of Light realized that the Southwest Continent's future potential might surpass the North and even the North and South Defense Districts of the Cloud Sky Mountain Range.
Although there were primitive forests everywhere, the entire land was not damaged by the ancient destruction.
As a result, the plan for the Southwest Continent had to be changed again.
The Sky Phoenix Pavilion and Wooden Sword Castle were unable to manage such a large land and population.
As a result, they had no choice but to let the Council of Light rule over most of the land and citizens of the Southwest Continent.
Originally, there were only two cities in the Southwest Continent. Now, there were at least four medium to large-sized cities.
Moreover, they had to at least establish a second-level organization of the Council of Light and send a large number of troops and officials to the Southwest Continent.
As a result, the Council of Light's headquarters did not raise the level of the Southwest Continent. In the end, it became an existence that was not inferior to the West Defense District.
As the highest commander of the Southwest Defense District, Duan Ruyan did not enter the Council of Light's highest command department. Now that the Southwest Defense District had been upgraded, she directly entered the command department and became the fifth commander of the West Continent's army.
On the other hand, Cloud Sky City's army of hundreds of thousands led a crusade against the Land of Chaos.
In fact, the Council of Light had a huge disagreement on whether to clean up the Land of Chaos and incorporate it into the West Continent.
The Land of Chaos was the buffer zone between the Tiandō League and the Evil ways. It had been chaotic for hundreds of years. There were all kinds of people there and who knew how many spies were hidden there.
If the Land of Chaos was incorporated into the West Continent, there would be people causing trouble every day and it would bring great trouble to the West Continent.
Those who agreed felt that the West Continent needed a buffer zone and strategic depth. Otherwise, once they started fighting with the Evil ways, they would directly enter the heart of Cloud Sky City without any buffer zone.
In the end, after a vote, all the members agreed to establish a buffer zone in the Land of Chaos.
As for those who were as fierce as Song Xiao, they straightforwardly said that they should leave the land but not the people.
They should kill everyone in the Land of Chaos. After all, they were all scoundrels and deserved to die.
However, Song Xiao's suggestion was directly rejected.
Ximen Lie led an army of three hundred thousand and began to clean up the Land of Chaos.
In the beginning, it was very smooth. They swept through dozens of miles in a day.
However, as time passed, their speed became slower and slower and their casualties increased.
This was because the entire Land of Chaos could not differentiate between the civilians and the militants.
Under the instigation and encouragement of spies from many forces, the cities that had just been taken down were destroyed and revolted one after another.
Hence, towards the end, they were only focused on suppressing the revolts and could not advance.
Ximen Lie was too righteous. He was not strong enough to control this chaotic land of several thousand miles, where crooks mixed with honest folk.
As for the other team, Qin Huaiyu and Song Xiao led an army of five hundred thousand elites to clean up the warlords and suppress the revolts.
In the end, they discovered that although this matter was big and there were many warlords who rebelled, they were basically scattered sand. They did not need so many troops.
Hence, they simply handed over the task of suppressing the revolts to Qin Huaiyu and transferred Lu Hanxie's Devil Dragon Army of two thousand, increasing Qin Huaiyu's Devil Dragon Army to four thousand.
Then, they had Song Xiao take two hundred thousand into the Land of Chaos. Together with Ximen Lie, they were responsible for the war in the Land of Chaos.
As soon as Song Xiao entered the Fringe, the doomsday of the local tyrants and monsters in the Fringe had arrived.
Even though the Council of Light had repeatedly stated that Song Xiao should not be too ruthless with his blade, Song Xiao was only able to endure for a few days.
In the end, after Song Xiao went, he only managed to restrain himself for a few days. After being infuriated by the local tyrant, he suddenly raised his butcher's knife and killed until rivers of blood flowed.
Previously, Ximen Lie's strategy in the Land of Chaos was to occupy the towns and restore order.
However, Song Xiao was the complete opposite. He did not care about the land and only cared about killing.
Any armed force in the Land of Chaos with more than a hundred people had to immediately disarm and surrender unconditionally.
If anyone dared to say no, they would be slaughtered.
As a result, the local tyrants of the Land of Chaos suffered a calamity.
In the first thousand li, Ximen Lie led three hundred thousand troops to pacify and suppress.
In the second thousand li, Song Xiao led a few hundred thousand troops to kill.
All the armed forces in the Chaos World with more than a hundred people were uprooted.
Either they surrendered or they were killed.
As for the spies of the various forces in the Land of Chaos, they were all wiped out.
How did Song Xiao judge a spy?
He did not judge, as long as you were trained in proper martial arts and were not from the Western Continent.
Then I'm sorry, you are a spy.
You want to say you are not a spy?
You are trained in the martial arts of a famous sect, why would you come to a rotten place like the Land of Chaos?
If you are not a spy, are you here to uphold justice?
Moreover, Song Xiao's interrogation was very simple and crude.
The first question was, are you a spy?
If you say no, then you are lying and you will be killed.
If you say yes, then the second question was, which family are you a spy from?
Not speaking?
You will be killed.
After saying which family you are a spy, if you have a good relationship with the Western Continent, you will be sent back. If you do not have a good relationship with the Western Continent, you will be killed.
Therefore, the interrogation of a spy was not more than three questions.
Therefore, after Song Xiao took control of the Land of Chaos, his progress was very fast.
Within a few months, he had cleaned up the Land of Chaos.
Drive away, move, and kill all the wandering martial artists and all the armed forces on top of the mountain.
The remaining people were organized to build cities, farm, and restore order.
Therefore, when Tang Bozhao led some of the civil officials to take control of the Land of Chaos, he sighed.
"This, is this still the Land of Chaos?
Why do I feel that the order here is better than the Western Continent? "
How could the order not be good?
Even the Novice Martial Artists here had been cleaned up.
Moreover, every citizen supervised each other and jointly protected each other.
Under Song Xiao's butcher's knife, the Land of Chaos changed from a land of slaughter to a place where even kitchen knives were not taken out. Any fight would be seen as a riot.
The millions of people in the Land of Chaos were more obedient than cats.
As for Song Xiao, it was as if he had a second spring in his career.
Now, the role of World Society's Northern Defense Region Commander was like chewing wax to him.
Therefore, he decided not to take charge of the Northern Defense Region and hand it over to someone else.
He wanted to enter the Council of Light Army, expand his territory, and sweep away all the forces of chaos.
In the end, he swept through the Land of Chaos. He killed his way from the northeast to the south of the Netherworld Swamp. Beyond the swamp was the territory of the Temple of Blood.
In the north, he killed his way to Sky Demon City, which was less than three hundred miles away.
In the entire Bedlam Lands, thousands of li were massacred by him, not leaving a single soul behind.
He was not satisfied and led his army north several times to invade Sky Demon City.
He scared the people of Sky Demon City three times a day and caused the most prosperous city in the world to flee. It was incomparably desolate.
Ximen Lie was afraid that something would happen and hurriedly reported it to Yang Dingtian.
The emissaries of Sky Demon City's Merchant Palace also came in waves to seek an audience with Yang Dingtian.
In the end, Yang Dingtian had no choice but to transfer Song Xiao back from the frontlines of the Land of Chaos.
After comforting him for his hard work, he followed his wishes and let him continue to be the Northern Defense Region's Supreme Commander. However, his main responsibility was to train the Council of Light's First Army, which was a full two hundred thousand troops.
Therefore, Song Xiao was full of fighting spirit and went to take up the post.
Ever since he had no hope of breaking through to the Grandmaster level, he could not find a goal to strive for.
Now that he had found it, he had endless energy.
Therefore, he trained the First Army until it was wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves.
Now, his reputation was like a child's crying.
Therefore, even though the Middle Region was in chaos these few months.
It was incomparably precious to the West Region.
Almost all of the large-scale strategic goals had been completed.
The division of the Defense Region, cleaning up the feudal vassals, land policy, cleaning up the Land of Chaos, cleaning up the Southwest Continent, military reorganization, power structure, all of these were more or less set in stone.
Without a doubt, these were the dividends from the victory in the Great War of the Middle Region.
It was the easiest to do things with the momentum of a great victory.
Moreover, the internal strife in the Middle Region had caused Yang Dingtian's reorganization in the West Region. Although the whole world had secretly sabotaged it, they could only sit and watch. They could not stop it!
…
In the temporary headquarters of the Council of Light!
Ten hours after Lingxi announced the results of the investigation in the Middle Region, before Li Guinong returned, Yang Dingtian had already received the exact news.
Lingxi had sold out the Cloud Sky Pavilion, sold out Yun Junnu, and trampled on them ten thousand times.
Then, the Council of Light immediately held a meeting.
"The strategic blackmail plan has gone out of control. Zhu Qingzhu has played too big, involving the entire Middle Region and the Vulture Sect. The world is facing a drastic change. What should we do next?" Yang Dingtian asked, "Especially when facing the Cloud Sky Pavilion and the Earth Splitting City. What should we do?"
"The plan has gone out of control. This is my responsibility." Qin Wanchou said, "Here, I will make a self-criticism to the Sect Master and everyone."
"Overall, this plan is still a success." Yang Dingtian said, "But conspiracies are like this. They develop on their own. It's hard to completely control them.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion will come to ask for help soon. Should we save them? "
Yes, should they still save them?
Yun Cailin was too good at courting death. Now, the mark of Evil ways was firmly imprinted on the Cloud Sky Pavilion and the Earth Splitting City.
If they saved them, it would be equivalent to colluding with the Evil ways. This was very disadvantageous to the Council of Light.
If they did not save them, they could only watch the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion fall into Zhu Qingzhu's hands. This would be a great loss to the plane.
This meant that Qin Wanchou's strategic blackmail plan had not only failed to catch the big fish, Zhu Qingzhu, but also eaten the bait.
"Save, we must save them.
No, to be precise, occupy them! "
Yang Dingtian said, "Yun Cailin deserves to die. But the crystal power must not fall into Zhu Qingzhu's hands.
Otherwise, there will be an endless number of crystal power demon ships attacking the West Continent. We will not be able to defend against them.
Of course, if the Earth Splitting City's Demon Eagle Army falls into Zhu Qingzhu's hands, the West Continent's skies will not be peaceful!
“
Once the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion fall into Zhu Qingzhu's hands, he will immediately turn hostile.
He will immediately fall out with us, and this temporary peace will disappear in an instant. Then, we will face the endless sea and air attacks. "Qin Wanchou said," Therefore, we must obtain the Earth Shattering City and the Sky Cloud Pavilion. "
Everyone very keenly heard Qin Wanchou's words.
It was to get them, not to save them.
"What is your plan, Uncle-Master Qin? Please tell us," Yang Dingtian said.
"If Zhu Qingzhu can punish the Earth Splitting City and the Tiandō League, we can do the same," Qin Wanchou said.
"Moreover, he is only from the Middle Continent Tiandō League. We are from the Council of Light. Our level is higher.
Before Zhu Qingzhu makes his move, we will use the fastest speed to take over the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion.
Execute He Wanqing and Yun Junnu to give the world an explanation?! "
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Although everyone faintly had this thought in their hearts, Qin Wanchou directly said it out loud.
They would send troops to the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion in the name of punishment. Then, before Zhu Qingzhu made his move, they would take over the Cloud Sky Pavilion and the Earth Splitting City.
This was the most perfect method.
It was in line with morality and would yield results.
However, Zhu Qingzhu would go crazy because the fruits of victory would be taken by Yang Dingtian.
Of course, how to deal with He Wanqing and Yun Junnu still needed to be discussed.
As Qin Wanchou said, it was too cruel to kill them and give the world an explanation.
"However, we will need the cooperation of the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion. Otherwise, it will be impossible to take over the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion in just a few days," Song Chunhua said.
"Don't worry. The messengers from the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion will be here soon," Qin Wanchou said.
"We can't wait," Yang Dingtian said. "All the experts above Martial Venerable Realm, gather.
The Devil Dragon Army, crystal cannons, and submarines, gather.
As soon as the messengers from the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion arrive, we will immediately send out our troops.
The submarines and the Ancient Beasts will immediately head to the Southern Ocean Continent and seal off the entire region! "
"Yes!" Everyone said in shock.
Plucking the fruits of Zhu Qingzhu's victory was simply too satisfying.
"That's right, will the Vulture Sect be angry?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly asked, "Will they take this opportunity to make a move?"
Everyone fell into silence.
If Yang Dingtian snatched the fruits of victory from Zhu Qingzhu's hands, Zhu Qingzhu would definitely flip out.
However, would the Vulture Sect take this opportunity to send out their troops?
This was hard to say.
Yang Dingtian suddenly said, "If the Vulture Sect decides to jump out, they will definitely jump out.
If he and the Netherworld Sea haven't jumped out, that means he has his own reasons.
If we want to completely control the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion without taking any risks, it's impossible. "
"That's right, as long as we have a 50% chance of success, we can do it. How can there be no risk at all?" Song Xiao said loudly, "Let's do it!"
The current Song Xiao was a militant from head to toe.
His desire for power was no longer very strong, but his desire for battle was boundless.
Afterwards, the entire Western Continent began to move, and all the elite forces began to gather. All the experts above Martial Venerable Realm gathered in Yan City.
They were only waiting for the messengers from the Earth Splitting City and the Cloud Sky Pavilion to arrive before setting off.
As for the Ancient Beast Xiao Xiao, it had already entered the Southern Ocean Continent and started to destroy all the ships in the direction of the Southern Ocean Continent, regardless of friend or foe.
Moreover, it couldn't differentiate between friend or foe. Once it started to kill, it didn't care about anything else.
… …
One day later, the messenger from the Cloud Sky Pavilion, Yun Junnu, arrived and requested to see Yang Dingtian!
After seeing Yang Dingtian, Yun Junnu immediately knelt down and prostrated herself on the ground, sobbing, "Sect Leader Yang, please save the Cloud Sky Pavilion and the Earth Splitting City. I am willing to be your slave and serve you for life!"
