"But the Great Zhao Empire grasped his weakness, precisely in these four words: 'Lǐ xiàn xià shì'!" Wu Yun said solemnly: "Lǐ xiàn xià shì is naturally a virtue, but it's also because of lǐ xiàn xià shì that there's no haughtiness. Without haughtiness, it gives assassins an opportunity to strike! Therefore, many people are approachable before they succeed, but after achieving fame and fortune, they become difficult to get close to. This isn't a change in character, but rather for the sake of safety!"
Although Chu Yang appeared lazy on the surface, in his heart he was shouting "That makes sense".
"Big Zhao sent out twenty or so waves of assassins to kill Tie Butian, but they all returned without success. So, they thought of borrowing the help of Tianwai Building." Wu Yunliang coldly smiled.
Chu Yang let out a soft "ah" and said: "So Master, after you heard their plan, you decided not to expose them, but instead turned the tables on them?"
"Not bad!" Wu Yunliang stroked his beard: "Since they want to take advantage of us, why can't we take advantage of them and rise with the trend?"
Chu Yang finally understood the reason for the downfall of Tianwai Building in his previous life! It was probably because Wu Yunliang had originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to rise up during the war between the two countries, but ended up being too clever for his own good...
There must be something too complicated going on here.
After all, facing the fifth light and gentle freak, anyone has no guarantee! Even if it was said that Mo Tianji, who was known as the god of calculation in his previous life, had to admit defeat when faced with the Prime Minister of this secular country, Di Wu Qingrou.
The fifth softness, the entire lower three continents are known as: one person can be worth a million masters! Mentioning this person, even his enemies cannot help but admire and acknowledge that this person is indeed the only one in ancient and modern times.
This person is indeed a born conspirator, politician and military strategist! And with a broad mind, embracing all things. Someone once said that even if the Fifth Gentleman didn't know a bit of martial arts, he could still become the master of one side of the Upper Three Heavens! This evaluation is extremely high, shocking to hear!
Dark clouds are cool, but it's just an adventure. Just like walking on a steel wire on a cliff of ten thousand feet, if you're not careful, you'll be crushed to pieces!
"I'm also taking a great risk!" Wu Yunliang's face was heavy with worry: "If we're not careful, the Tianwai Building will be destroyed. But, we have no choice but to take the risk."
Chu Yang nodded in agreement with this statement.
"Over the past few years, Da Zhao has been particularly harsh in his oppression of Tianwai Building in order to implement this plan. Yet he doesn't push us to death, but rather subtly pushes us towards Iron Cloud."
"As long as we get close, there are traitors among us, and... apart from you, Second Master, three out of the ten brothers in our school have colluded with other sects. This is also due to the high pressure those sects have put on us in recent years. I suspect this is also a plot by Fifth Gentleman. However, I still haven't figured out his motive. But one thing is certain: after we get close, it will be much easier for these people to assassinate Iron Supplement Heaven!" Wu Yunliang said worriedly.
"The fifth gentle requirement is just the death of Tie Butian, and doesn't care about Tianwai Building. However, once Tie Butian dies, our Tianwai Building will inevitably come to a disastrous end."
Chu Yang's face gradually became heavy. He didn't know all the details, but he knew one thing: in his previous life, Tie Butian had indeed died! Just two months before the collapse of Tianwai Building!
If Wuyun Lian still insists on the original plan, then tragedy is likely to happen again! If Wuyun Lian gives up, then Tianwai Building will be destroyed even faster under the fifth gentle's counter-attack, plus the heavy blows from the imperial court and various sects.
Moreover, now that they have ridden the tiger and can't get off, Tianwai Building has already established a relationship with Tieyun Country. Even if Wu Yunliang is not around, Li Jinsong can fully represent him in a legitimate and proper manner. That way, completing the fifth gentle plan will be even easier!
With the fifth gentle's astonishing planning ability, it was not difficult to accomplish this task. It was even a familiar path. The reason why the fifth gentle chose Tianwai Building, apart from the above reasons, is that: Tianwai Building is the closest route from Dazhao to Wujiguo! Moreover, this place is mountainous and dense with trees, even if ten thousand troops are hidden, it would be unknown to both gods and ghosts!
This is an extremely important strategic location!
If Iron Cloud Nation is destroyed, Great Zhao will send troops from Iron Cloud, passing through Tianwai Building, and in less than five days, they can attack the heart of Wuji Nation!
At that time, several other troops will rise up simultaneously, and Wuji State may be destroyed in just one month!
That is to say, the fifth gentle layer of arrangement, with Tianwai Building this small line, actually paved the way for unifying the world!
The specific plan will not be so simple, and there are probably countless conspiracies, countless operations, and countless hidden lines. Chu Yang doesn't know any of these, but he knows that this is how things developed in his past life!
The problem now is that Chu Yang clearly knows where this whole thing is going, but he is powerless at the moment!
Can't think of any way to stop it! Even if I say it, no one will believe me. Dude, if you go out and say: "I'm from 2050, the Earth was destroyed back then..." See how many people on the street would believe you? Probably they'll all shout in unison that you're crazy...
And can you stop the destruction of the Earth? Although you clearly know when it will be destroyed, what can you do with that knowledge?
Chu Yang is now in such an environment. He is now just an ordinary disciple of the Tianwai Building. What can he do to reverse the historical fate of this mighty torrent composed of hundreds of millions of troops from three countries?
He had this feeling for the first time: history cannot be reversed!
Even if I were reborn, it would only be a matter for myself. It has nothing to do with others. History cannot be reversed, so what about Ryōdō?
What's wrong?
Have I been reborn to come back or am I still going to watch the tragedy happen with open eyes?
At this moment, Chu Yang suddenly felt a very clear yet mysterious feeling. His spirit had somehow entered a strange realm: if things didn't change, it would prove that history couldn't be altered. Those who were destined to die would still die. Even if they were reborn thousands of times, each person's fate was already set and irreversible!
Can't change this matter, then Mo Qingwu's fate can't be changed either!
At most, it's just a few years ahead or delayed. Just like Shi Qianshan, he still has to die four years later. Now he just died four years early. As for Mo Qingwu, Chu Yang's efforts to revive her may allow her to live a few more years, but she may also encounter misfortune ahead of time! These are all uncertain things.
But as long as the overall trend of history doesn't change, Mo Qingyu will absolutely never spend her life with Chu Yang!
That's fate!
There is a predetermined number in the dark! No one can change it!
This is an epiphany and also the deepest understanding of the Heavenly Way. Chu Yang suddenly had a moment of enlightenment at this instant.
History is the trajectory of the heavenly way!
But it was this realization that suddenly made him feel irritable and violent, with a bloody murderous intent rising up in his heart! If history couldn't be reversed, then didn't that mean... Qingwu would still have to die?!
No! I refuse to accept it!
