Chapter 1418 God-Like Analysis

All of them were eighth-grade Supreme Martial Artists.

His character was so strong and resilient that in normal times he could watch a mountain collapse in front of him without blinking, and even life and death were ordinary to him. How would he be bought over by a few words?

So they didn’t think of it much.

What they didn’t know was that having one’s clan destroyed was a heavy blow to anyone. At this moment, a few kind words could be remembered for life!

What could compare to help in the time of distress?

What’s more, Diwu Qingrou’s words gave Lan Mofeng a position of respect in this group once more when he was feeling left out.

What Diwu Qingrou gave him was dignity.

Of course, this wasn’t enough to buy Lan Mofeng over, but in the days ahead, Diwu Qingrou would leave a trustworthy impression on him.

And with Diwu Qingrou’s ability, with time and opportunity, he was completely confident of turning this momentary gratitude into control!

Diwu Qingrou waited for Lan Mofeng to sit down before he smiled and said, “This matter right now can be said to be unexpected, or it can be said to be a big shock. It completely disrupted our original deployment plan.”

Everyone nodded.

This matter indeed had an immense impact. Some people were still dizzy in their heads and felt as though they were dreaming.

As for the original plan… in light of such emergencies, of what use was it anymore?

The original plan assumed that the Nine Tribulations were Martial Saints at best… Now, they actually exterminated the Lan Clan from the Nine Super Clans.

“This incident is very significant.” Diwu Qingrou said softly, “The Nine Super Clans vary in strength, but since the Nine Tribulations could take down the Lan Clan to the ground, to deal with the other clans… would probably not be too difficult as well.”

“Besides, taking down the Lan Clan, according to our intelligence, did not cost the Nine Tribulations very heavily. Then… to go on the other clans, even the Ye Clan who ranks the first… Wouldn’t the Nine Tribulations be able to do? Perhaps, they would only need to… pay a price!”

Diwu Qingrou nodded to Ye Xiaoyao. “Elder Ye, it was an analogy, please don’t be offended.”

Ye Xiaoyao’s face was solemn. He let out a long sigh. “This is the truth. What is there to be offended about?”

Everyone became worried at the same time.

This was the most disturbing thing for everyone.

Diwu Qingrou’s one sentence pointed out everyone’s deepest fear.

Some movement went across the eyes of an old man standing behind him, but he immediately looked down and the movement stopped.

This person was the only fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artist expert of the Diwu Clan; at this moment, he was holding himself back vigorously. He was filled with bewilderment…

Just last night when they received the news, Qingrou was saying that the current strength of the Nine Tribulations could definitely not be enough and there must be something more; yet why did he sound so confident and worried right now?

“Once the Nine Tribulations are combined, they would be undefeatable in the world!” Diwu Qingrou’s index finger rubbed between his eyebrows. He said heavily, “Although Li Xiongtu, one of the Nine Tribulations, is trapped by us in the northwest… There are still nine individuals out there, because there is a sword master among them! Those nine people may not necessarily be less powerful than the Nine Tribulations, and may even be… far beyond!”

Everyone nodded.

Ye Xiaoyao said, “Absolutely! If with the sword master, they can’t even compare to the original Nine Tribulations, this sword master is too weak.”

Xiao Zhengyan said, “Yes. The sword master’s strength ought to be the highest and the most critical among them. So for his battle abilities to be extraordinary, it is as it should be.”

Everyone agreed.

Diwu Qingrou’s analysis was right on point indeed.

The Supreme Martial Artist behind Diwu Qingrou bowed his head, but his doubts grew stronger and stronger inside. I remember Qingrou saying that Li Xiongtu is definitely not one of the Nine Tribulations! Qingrou has never changed his mind on this point.

Why is he so sure about Li Xiongtu’s status as the Nine Tribulations now?

Wouldn’t such misleading indirectly help the Nine Tribulations? This should be unfavorable for long-term planning…

Why is Qingrou doing this?

“The threat is great, but right now, they should have just made it up to the Upper Three Heavens and have no foundation here! Yet they just made a move like this, it seemed a little rash. It seemed… like they were too eager to achieve something.”

Diwu Qingrou analyzed slowly. “With common logic, the Nine Tribulations should disperse immediately, conceal their identity, and build experiences and strengths each on their own. Then when the time is ripe, they would rise up at one command and sweep through the Upper Three Heavens… That would be the best strategy!”

“Right now, although they’ve gotten rid of the Lan Clan, this should never happen!” Diwu Qingrou said, “Since such a thing happened, then there must be a reason!”

“What’s the reason?” Everyone asked one after another with a serious and urgent face.

Just now, everyone was too shocked that they ignored this aspect. Now they finally realized — Yeah, to make a move so fast looks apparently like they are anxious…

It’s too eager.

Over the past 90,000 years, there had been records of the process of the Nine Tribulations unifying the world. There was no such urgency like theirs right now.

“Moreover, the Nine Tribulations were not very purposeful this time. That is to say, when they came up, they did not necessarily know that they were facing the Lan Clan!”

Diwu Qingrou’s fingers tapped gently on the table. “Look at the date, the Ninth Heaven passageway opens, and within three days, the Lan Clan is destroyed! But if they came from other channels, they would not make it to the Lan Clan in three days! That means, the Nine Tribulations came up from the passageway guarded by the Lan Clan. After coming up, they started without hesitation.”

“This shows a point — They were in a hurry! Since they are so anxious, it means that the Nine Super Clans have done something that is unbearable to them and makes them unable to wait any longer! So, they are anxious.”

Diwu Qingrou spoke in one breath and took a long breath. “After destroying the Lan Clan, the Nine Tribulations actually put on a leisurely look and built a new city at the Lan Clan… Why is this so?”

“The building of a new city is extremely complex, how can it possibly be achieved within a short period of time? If they really wanted to build a foundation, then it’s impossible without a few years of operations. But they only stayed for less than a month, left and immediately after that attacked the Zhuge Clan!”

“Why was this so?”

“The Nine Tribulations should have self-knowledge, that is, now that they have no foundation, just to establish a base so openly, we would never allow it, and they would never be able to build it up. But they still did it, why?”

“After attacking the Zhuge Clan, they immediately went toward the north… ‘The star is gleaming in the north’. This time, they actually have a clear goal, but… why?”

Diwu Qingrou’s three consecutive “why”s fell upon everyone like three flashes of lightning.

‘Yeah, why is this so?’

“Could it be… because of the situation in the northwest?” Ye Xiaoyao reacted the fastest.

“Did my Lan Clan… just out of coincidence… become a guinea pig? Or a scapegoat?” Lan Mofeng took a deep breath.

“Probably.” Diwu Qingrou gave an approving smile to each of Ye Xiaoyao and Lan Mofeng. He said, “Let me explain it one by one. They ignored the consequences and began to attack the Lan Clan blindly, because… they wanted to reduce the pressure here.”

“But it was this kind of panic action that inadvertently helped us confirm completely — Li Xiongtu is one of the Nine Tribulations! They made such a big move, just because they wanted to rescue their own brother!”

“They made a big move to make us panic-stricken, which was tantamount to challenging us. Then they built a new city and lured us to go over and kill them…”

“This is an attractive strategy, which entices opponents to leave their vantage ground. And after this, the tricks are definitely endless…”

“So, I dare to promise that if we really mobilized an army to go over, then in this context, the siege of the Li Clan will be resolved in no time! And the people who go over will not even find the shadow of the Nine Tribulations, besides getting a city of ruins!”

“So the south and the north will be freed at the same time. From then on, the Nine Tribulations will disappear without a trace…”

Everyone gasped at the same time.

If this really happened, it would really all be a joke and nothing would be gained.

Diwu Qingrou revealed sincere respect on his face. “Thanks to the clear vision of the Elder Masters of the Super Clans, they have seen through the plans of the Nine Super Clans, and they have not moved. They made their first plan fail.”

“Here, Qingrou expresses admiration of the Elder Masters to you all.” Diwu Qingrou said sincerely, “It’s wonderful!”

The Supreme Martial Artists all felt relieved at once, their eyes full of pride.

“Since the first plan failed, the Nine Tribulations came up with a new plan which was to attack the Zhuge Clan again regardless of the consequences. They wanted to use this method to attract the attention of the Nine Super Clans… Take note, this is very important! Extremely important!!”

Diwu Qingrou’s tone was heavy and even a bit gloomy.

Everyone’s spirit lifted at once. They held their breath.

At this point, Diwu Qingrou took full control of the atmosphere! At this point, it could already be said — Diwu Qingrou fully grasped the active agency. He could make this group of people gasp or otherwise keep holding their breaths!

It seemed that it was caused by the topic with the severe situation controlling the emotions of everyone, but in fact, it was the further establishment of Diwu Qingrou’s authority as a leader!

Most importantly, so long as he was recognized, the next step would be a piece of cake!
