From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

Chapter 166 Sudden Change, the Scent of Conspiracy

Everything is ready. In four days, Fufeng will eliminate Gu Chengze with lightning speed!

As a fourth-class member of the Fufeng Society and a seventh-rank martial artist, "Red Scorpion" was also among those recruited, but Chen Shi was not prepared to participate in this operation.

Gu Chengze has a fifth-rank expert by his side. Even if Fufeng Association mobilizes a large number of people, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. There is no reason for Chen Shi to take this risk.

Most importantly, he also needs to take the opportunity to rescue Cui Nong.

Although the forum leader issued a call to action, it was not mandatory; all members could decide for themselves whether to respond.

The others were unaware of the existence of a fifth-rank expert. The rewards for accumulating points in this operation were extremely high, and it was believed that many people would participate in four days.

"Greetings, Steward."

Chen Shi had just finished his roll call and hadn't even gone to his duty room when he was summoned to Jin Bingren's place.

I suppose we should investigate the Fufeng Association.

Why the rush? Why did you call him over so early in the morning?

"How's it going on your end?"

Kim Byung-in gestured for Chen Shi to sit down and asked a question directly.

really.

"I'm working hard on the task and trying to gain the trust of the forum leader as soon as possible."

Chen Shi answered, appearing both enthusiastic and eager to try.

He had already discovered that the leader of the altar was Zhou Bingzhi, but he couldn't reveal this now if he wanted to use it to blackmail Zhou Bingzhi into killing Gu Chengze.

As for getting rid of Gu Chengze, if the conditions are right, they could sell Zhou Bingzhi and get benefits from Gu Tingshu.

However, even then, one should meet Gu Tingshu directly, not through Jin Bingren. After all, Zhou Bingzhi was Jin Bingren's brother and close friend.

"No need."

Just as he was pondering this, Kim Byung-in waved his hand dismissively.

"ha?"

Chen Shi opened his eyes wide and was taken aback.

He quickly came to his senses and asked.

"But I failed in my duties, and the master is angry. Steward, please understand, it wasn't my fault..."

"No, no, why are you panicking?"

Kim Byung-in waved his hands repeatedly, then smiled and said.

"The master has received definite information that in four days, Fufeng will launch a major operation against his forces in Yongqiu, at which time they will be wiped out in one fell swoop! Therefore, your mission can be temporarily suspended."

"A few days later?"

"Four days, which is the second day of the tenth month."

Kim Byung-in repeated it, then added a sentence.

"night."

Good evening, it's convenient to do things tonight.

Chen Shi casually echoed, appearing calm on the surface, but inwardly a storm was brewing.

What the hell is going on?!

According to Jin Bingren, the Fufeng Society's major operation was naturally to assassinate Gu Chengze.

How did Gu Tingshu find out about this?

Could it be that, besides him, Gu Tingshu has also planted other people in the Fufeng Society?

But that shouldn't be the case. It's not easy to place people in Fufeng. Besides, if there are other people involved, Jin Bingren wouldn't need to keep targeting Chen Shi.

If that's the case, how did he know?

Let's not think about this problem for now; it's pointless to dwell on it now that things have come to this.

The problem now is that once Gu Tingshu makes a move, regardless of the fate of the Fufeng Society members, he probably won't be able to kill Gu Chengze.

Chen Shi's long-term planning and immense efforts have all been in vain!

Moreover, after this battle, the Yongqiu branch of the Fufeng Society suffered heavy losses and is probably no longer able to kill Gu Chengze.

At that time, Chen Shi will have to face Gu Chengze alone; how could he possibly be a match for him?

"This time, the lord will personally lead the team, and he will surely wipe out the Fufeng Society's influence in Yongqiu in one fell swoop."

Kim Byung-in spoke again, smiling.

"This is a great opportunity. Prepare well these next few days so you can impress the master."

"Master..."

Chen Shi was taken aback again; Gu Tingshu was actually going to take action personally.

Yes, Fufeng killed his son, and as a father, he naturally wanted to take revenge himself.

Furthermore, Gu Tingshu possesses considerable cultivation and was originally a formidable fighting force.

"Does the steward mean I should go too?"

After regaining his senses, Chen Shi asked a question.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Kim Byung-in looked at Chen Shi with a puzzled expression.

After all, in his view, this was a good opportunity to "make a name for himself".

"Oh, of course not. My cultivation level is low, but I am just a little apprehensive."

Chen Shi quickly waved his hand and offered a casual explanation.

He originally planned to take advantage of the chaos to rescue Cui Nong, but if he acted with Gu Tingshu, he was afraid he would be unable to extricate himself from the situation.

But then I thought, if Gu Tingshu intervened, it was hard to say whether there would still be a chance to save Cui Nong.

"Hehe, you don't need to worry too much. Just follow me when the time comes."

Kim Byung-in smiled and offered another word of comfort.

"Thank you for your guidance, Manager!"

Chen Shi looked grateful and quickly thanked him.

It must be said that Kim Byung-in, Son Byung-yi, and Joo Byung-ji all treated him quite well.

If he hadn't been forced into this situation, Chen Shi wouldn't have wanted to be their enemy.

After leaving Kim Byung-in, Chen Shi frowned.

He was wondering whether he should reveal this information to Zhou Bingzhi.

In this way, Zhou Bingzhi will inevitably cancel his operation four days later, thus preserving his strength.

"No!"

After much deliberation, Chen Shi's face darkened, and he ultimately rejected the idea.

Gu Chengze was pressuring him very hard, and he didn't have much time at all.

Zhou Bingzhi feared Gu Tingshu, and it was unknown when he would assassinate Gu Chengze again; Chen Shi simply couldn't wait that long.

Better to die for your fellow Daoist than for this one!

There's always some hope in trying, so let Zhou Bingzhi take the risk.

Chen Shi is now considering how to create chaos so that he can find an opportunity to rescue Cui Nong.

Whether or not to kill Gu Chengze has now become secondary.

Chen Shi spent the rest of the day deep in thought, but by evening he still hadn't come up with a clear plan.

On one side is the Fufeng Society, and on the other side is the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion. There are too many people and too many experts, and there are simply too many uncontrollable factors.

Something's happened.

That evening, Chen Shi was still racking his brains to make plans when Zhe Liu appeared and said in a deep voice.

"What happened now?"

Chen Shi felt utterly powerless, then gave a cold laugh. What could be worse than the current situation?

"Is this another battle between the Holy Sons?"

"The elder suddenly issued an order to mobilize manpower for an operation to be launched in three days."

"October 2nd?"

"Um."

"Depend on!"

Chen Shi rolled his eyes and completely lost his ability to speak.

Damn it, let's destroy it.

First it was Gu Tingshu, and now it's the elders—how did they all get involved!

Everything is in complete chaos now.

After a moment of annoyance, Chen Shi stood up and paced back and forth in the courtyard.

Gu Chengze, Zhou Bingzhi, Gu Tingshu, Elders...

These people came together in my mind, one by one.

After spinning around countless times, Chen Shi suddenly stopped.

This matter is probably not as simple as a coincidence.

So-called coincidences are often deliberately arranged by someone, and there may be a big conspiracy behind them!

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; but now, behind the oriole is a venomous snake.

Thinking of this, Chen Shi immediately turned to Zhe Liu.

"Go to Gegang County as quickly as possible, tonight!"
