Chapter 606: Endless Enemies
There is a scattered village on the outskirts of Luoyang. It is not close to the mountains or the water, the land is barren, and the wells are dry. Therefore, the villagers have long moved into the city, and the village has been abandoned for many years.

The village is overgrown with weeds and has broken walls and ruins everywhere. Since there are many tombs around the village, after the village was abandoned, many ownerless corpses were dumped here at will.

Over time, this place gradually evolved from a ruin into a mass grave.

This place is sparsely populated, with corpses everywhere. Even in broad daylight, it exudes a gloomy atmosphere. At night, the withered graves and the piles of bones attract wild dogs to look for food. In the dark night, blood-red eyes flash everywhere, and ghosts howl everywhere, which is extremely terrifying and frightening.

However, in the mass grave tonight, there was a faint yellow candlelight that flickered in a relatively intact ruined courtyard, attracting wild dogs that were gnawing on the bones around to look up from time to time.

"squeak!"

The sound of a door hinge turning was very harsh in the silent night.

"came back?"

A man in a black robe and a mask on his face walked out of the room slowly, holding a broken candlestick in his hand.

This person was none other than Yun Zhuiyue, who had come from Longxiang Mountain thousands of miles away.

At this moment, following behind Yun Zhuiyue were Li Haitang, Xu Ren and a dozen other disciples from Longxiang Mountain.

Tang Xuan and Si Wudao were left behind by Yun Zhuiyue in Longxiang Mountain to take charge of the situation.

"How was it? Did you gain anything from your night visit to the Xianwang Mansion?" Yun Zhuiyue asked, looking at Wuming who was walking towards them, "Did anyone discover us?"

"The Xianwang Mansion is heavily guarded, and Luo Tianjin is more cunning than I thought." Wuming bowed to Yun Zhuiyue and replied, "Shicai, I just climbed into the inner courtyard and was discovered by Luo Tianjin. Fortunately, I retreated in time, otherwise I would have been caught by them."

Yun Zhuiyue seemed to be unconcerned about Wuming's distress and asked directly, "Where is Shao Yuanqing?"

"In fact, we had already escaped the pursuit of the Xianwang Mansion, but on the way back, we found that Yan Bugui's whereabouts were mysterious and his behavior was abnormal. So Shao Yuanqing and I decided to follow him secretly to find out what was going on."

"Oh?" Wuming's words immediately aroused Yun Zhuiyue's interest. "What was the result?"

Before he finished speaking, the half-closed courtyard door was suddenly pushed open. Then, Shao Yuanqing rushed into the courtyard with a copper hammer in one hand and Yan Bugui, whose life or death was unknown, in the other hand like he was holding a chick.

At this point, half of Yan Bugui's cheek was still dripping with blood, staining Shao Yuanqing's robe with patches of bright red.

"What's going on?" Yun Zhuiyue couldn't help but frown when she saw Yan Bugui, "What is she doing..."

"This woman didn't know what to do. I wanted to smash her head with a hammer, but she passed out first." Shao Yuanqing sneered, "So I brought her back to the Holy Lord for disposal."

"correct!"

Wuming's eyes moved, and he quickly took out a crumpled letter from his arms, handed it to Yun Zhuiyue, and explained: "This is a secret letter found on Yan Bugui."

Hearing this, Yun Zhuiyue hesitated for a moment, first looked at Yan Bugui who was seriously injured, then looked at Wuming and Shao Yuanqing, and then took the secret letter, opened it in no time, and read it carefully.

In an instant, Yun Zhuiyue's eyes changed again and again, from suspicion to curiosity, from curiosity to shock, from shock to smugness, from smugness to contempt, all different and very exciting.

"Holy Lord, this letter is..."

"Haha..." Before Wuming could ask more questions, Yun Zhuiyue suddenly laughed out loud and said proudly, "God is really helping me! I didn't expect that Luo Tianjin would be deserted by his friends one day. Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! It's simply wonderful!"

Seeing Yun Zhuiyue so excited, Wuming, Shao Yuanqing and others were shocked and looked at each other.

"Do you know who wrote this letter?" Yun Zhuiyue asked mysteriously, "And who is it going to be sent to?"

Hearing this, Wuming and others shook their heads and said nothing.

"This letter was written by Luo Tianjin's wife, Ling Xiaoxiao." Yun Zhuiyue sneered, "It was sent to Zhao Yuan, the imperial envoy sent by the court."

"This……"

Yun Zhuiyue's words left those who did not know the truth completely confused.

"Holy Lord, why did Luo Tianjin's wife write a letter to Zhao Yuan?" Shao Yuanqing asked carelessly, "Could it be that the two of them are having an affair?"

"How foolish!" Yun Zhuiyue glanced at Shao Yuanqing, then turned to look at the others, "What do you think?"

"The Holy Lord did not tell us the contents of the letter, so how can we know?" Shao Yuanqing curled his lips.

"This letter alone is enough to reveal three things." Li Haitang suddenly interrupted, "First, there must be a secret between Ling Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yuan, otherwise it wouldn't be so mysterious. Second, Luo Tianjin must have been kept in the dark, otherwise he wouldn't have communicated in secret."

"Well said!" Yun Zhuiyue looked at Li Haitang with admiration and asked curiously, "What is the third thing?"

Hearing this, Xu Ren and others looked at Li Haitang in surprise.

"Third, Yan Bugui is Ling Xiaoxiao's confidant. At least... Ling Xiaoxiao trusts her very much." "Very good! As the saying goes, 'the disciple surpasses the master'. Haitang, you are better than your master."

Yun Zhuiyue praised Li Haitang generously, which made Li Haitang feel flattered and at a loss.

"Now I will tell you what is in the letter." Yun Zhuiyue said with a half-smile, "Ling Xiaoxiao revealed to Zhao Yuan that Luo Tianjin was secretly communicating with the Young Qin King of the Western Regions and was plotting a rebellion to establish himself as the emperor."

"what?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused an uproar in everyone's hearts.

"This..." Wuming hesitated, "It's too sensational. Holy Lord, could this news be false?"

Shao Yuanqing quickly agreed, "That's right! Ling Xiaoxiao is Luo Tianjin's wife after all. What good would it do for her to betray Luo Tianjin? In my opinion... this secret letter is probably fake."

"That's wrong!" Yun Zhuiyue shook his head slowly and thoughtfully, "I think this letter is absolutely true."

"Impossible!" Shao Yuanqing argued, "Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Luo Tianjin and Ling Xiaoxiao are a loving couple and respect each other. How could Ling Xiaoxiao stab Luo Tianjin in the back?"

"I know why she resents Luo Tianjin." Yun Zhuiyue said with emotion, "I just didn't expect that this woman would be so ruthless."

"The Holy Lord means..."

“No need to ask more.” Yun Zhuiyue waved her hand and said, “Ling Xiaoxiao and Luo Tianjin’s feud is a perfect match for me. Now even my own wife is trying to trip me up. Luo Tianjin, oh Luo Tianjin, you are really at the end of your rope. Your luck is about to run out.”

"That's perfect!" Shao Yuanqing grinned, "If Luo Tianjin gets one more enemy, we'll get one more friend."

"During this trip to Luoyang, I originally wanted to prevent Liu Xunyi and Xiao Zhirou from meeting, but I didn't expect to receive such a big surprise." Yun Zhuiyue pondered, "The Great Song Dynasty court recruited the Central Plains martial arts world, which was beyond my expectation. Now Luo Tianjin has joined hands with the young Qin King to plot a rebellion, which is even more unexpected. It seems that the situation here is far more complicated than I expected. Luo Tianjin, being the leader of the martial arts world still can't satisfy your ambitions, and you actually put your mind on the country. I underestimated you in the past."

"Holy Lord, what should we do?"

"Wuming, go check where Zhao Yuan lives at night?"

"The Holy Lord wants me to give this letter to Zhao Yuan?" Wuming hesitated.

"Of course!" Yun Zhuiyue said with a sinister smile, "Since it is a great gift from Madam Luo, how can we refuse it? Handing this letter to Zhao Yuan will surely cause the wrath of the court. If my guess is correct... the court will definitely give up on recruiting Luo Tianjin, and change its strategy, doing everything possible to nip it in the bud."

"Hiss!" Everyone covered their faces in dismay, not knowing what to say.

"Right now, the more people who want to deal with Luo Tianjin, the happier I am." Yun Zhuiyue said, "I can't wait to see a good show."

"What should we do if the geese don't return?" Shao Yuanqing asked.

"First, heal her wounds, and then put her under house arrest." Yun Zhuiyue pondered, "Yan Bugui disappeared for no reason, Luo Tianjin and Ling Xiaoxiao must be in a state of panic. I want to stir up this muddy water and make the situation in the Xianwang Mansion even more confusing. Hehe... In the next few days, there will definitely be a lot of fun in the Xianwang Mansion. It's a pity that I can't see it all..."

At this point, an idea suddenly flashed through Yun Zhuiyue's mind, and her eyes changed. She murmured, "Wait! If the imperial court and Luo Tianjin turn against each other, then Liu Xunyi... must be an important chess piece."

After saying this, Yun Zhuiyue calmly told Li Haitang, Xu Ren and the others, "Take Yan Bugui out first."

Knowing that Yun Zhuiyue, Wuming and Shao Yuanqing had important matters to discuss, Li Haitang and others did not dare to hesitate and left one after another.

Seeing the courtyard door closed, Wuming approached Yun Zhuiyue and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it the result that the Holy Lord wants to see the most to make Liu Xunyi and Luo Tianjin father and son enemies?"

"Yes, but compared to the father and son becoming enemies, I would rather see Luo Tianjin lose his reputation and die without a burial place." Yun Zhuiyue said in a serious tone, "I don't care whether Liu Xunyi dies or not, I only care about when Luo Tianjin dies. If Liu Xunyi dies and Luo Tianjin is still at large, then everything I have done will be in vain. What's more... Liu Xunyi is no match for Luo Tianjin at all."

"That makes sense." Wuming seemed to be thinking, "The Holy Lord is worried that... Liu Xunyi will reveal his identity in advance? Once Luo Tianjin knows that he is a spy for the court, he will be executed immediately, and his marriage with Luo Ningyu will become a bubble."

"That's right!" Yun Zhuiyue nodded and said, "Before coming here, we didn't know about the court's offer of amnesty, Luo Tianjin's rebellion, and the falling out between Luo and Ling. Therefore, we also have no idea whether Liu Xunyi's identity will be exposed to Luo Tianjin."

"probably not……"

"We can't take risks!" Yun Zhuiyue said firmly, "I have to prepare for the worst in this matter."

"What if... Liu Xunyi is accidentally exposed, how will the Holy Lord deal with it?"

"This……"

The more critical the moment, the easier it is to become confused, and this is the case with Yun Zhuiyue at this moment.

"Let me think about this matter." Yun Zhuiyue waved her hand impatiently, "Wuming, you deliver this letter to Zhao Yuan. Shao Yuanqing, you disguise yourself, go into the city and keep a close eye on the actions of the Xianwang Mansion. For now, we can only wait and see and act accordingly."
