Peerless Tang Sect: Hurricane Infinite Wind

Chapter 380 Assassination Plan
On the other side, Wu Xuan and Ye Guyi had already changed into night clothes and left Mingyue Hotel.

Not long ago, news finally came from the Ordinary Alliance that the contact person of the smuggling channel with the best goods finally agreed to the transaction.

In order to establish this smuggling channel, Ye Guyi spent over 20,000 gold soul coins to build relationships and even gave a deposit of 700,000 gold soul coins.

But it's all worth it.

After the two crossed a main road, they entered a narrower alley. It was not until they were about to reach the end that they saw a dark shadow that had been waiting for a long time.

"You are the ones who are involved in this transaction! Have you brought the money?" a hoarse voice asked.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xuan took out a stack of gold soul coin savings cards from under the cover of his black robe and handed them to the other party.

After checking, the man threw the three storage soul guides to Wu Xuan without any further ado. "Here are the goods, take a look."

Wu Xuan nodded slightly after hearing this, and after checking everything again, he said, "Everything is normal!"

"Happy cooperation!" the man responded and then disappeared into the shadows.

"This is the fourth secret line we have come into contact with. Haven't you found the one you want yet?" Ye Guyi asked as he watched the figure walk away.

"I have a feeling that this is the smuggling secret line I'm looking for." Wu Xuan nodded slightly.

"Really? Then hurry up and catch up." Ye Guyi said excitedly. Wu Xuan had roughly explained to her what this hidden line represented.

"Yeah!" Wu Xuan nodded slightly, then released his mental power to directly lock onto the direction in which the black-robed man left.

The man in black who came to trade this time seemed to be very cautious. He frequently walked through the streets and alleys, constantly changing directions. After walking for about two quarters of an hour, he finally arrived at a large building.

This building was near the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. It looked like a residential building, but Wu Xuan and the others clearly saw the man in black being stopped just as he entered one of the building's entrances. Those who stopped him were, surprisingly, fully armed soldiers.

The man in black showed a token and then walked in.

"This is it!" Wu Xuan said excitedly. This was where the entire Mingdu's power was gathered to store war resources, and it was also an unimaginable treasure.

"Should we take action now?" Ye Guyi asked eagerly.

"No! Let's wait and see. Now is definitely not the best time to take action." Wu Xuan waved his hand to stop Ye Guyi who was about to make a move.

Not to mention how many powerful people are guarding such an important warehouse, the patrol mechanism that reports at all times would allow Xu Tianran to immediately notice something wrong if something happened in the warehouse.

With such a huge fortune lost, the mad Xu Tianran would definitely stop the competition, and might even directly order the indiscriminate massacre of outsiders in Mingdu.

Those evil soul masters were eager to do this. Therefore, it would be best to put this matter on the eve of the subsequent raid. If Wu Xuan remembered correctly, the raid should have been planned soon.

After making the decision, the two people in a good mood naturally went straight back to Mingyue Hotel.

As soon as Wu Xuan stepped onto Shrek's floor, the door to the combat conference room opened.

"Senior Sister, haven't you rested yet? The competition is not until the day after tomorrow!" Wu Xuan looked at Zhang Lexuan in surprise.

"We're not here for the competition. We came here just to wait for you." Zhang Lexuan said seriously.

"Wait for me? Is there something important right now?" Wu Xuan murmured and entered the combat meeting room with Ye Guyi.

At this moment, two unexpected people appeared in front of Wu Xuan in the conference room. They were Xu Jiujiu from the Xingluo Empire and his bodyguard Manyi.

"Princess Jiujiu, how come you still have time to come to our place so late?" Wu Xuan picked up the kettle on the table and slowly poured himself a glass of water.

"Captain Wu! I'll be frank with you. This competition might be a trap set by the Sun-Moon Empire." Xu Jiujiu said solemnly.

"A trap? What do you mean?" Wu Xuan was surprised for a moment. Wasn't this matter to be discussed in the next few days? How could it be discussed so many days in advance?

Xu Jiujiu continued, "When we first arrived in Mingdu, we didn't discover much, but as time went on and the round-robin tournament progressed, we began to feel something was amiss. We sent three waves of spies back to the empire to deliver news, but all three groups vanished without a trace. This made us extremely vigilant. Later, I sent people from various locations to investigate and finally discovered some clues. It seems like a dragnet has been laid around Mingdu, and now it's a situation where you can only enter but not leave."

"Is the Sun-Moon Empire going to deal with all the teams that are not from the Sun-Moon Empire participating in this competition? Will it catch us all in one fell swoop?" Ye Guyi on the side frowned instantly.

Xu Jiujiu nodded and said, "That's very likely. Furthermore, they're not just dealing with us, the participating teams, but also the forces hiding in the shadows along with us. For example, our Xingluo Empire, the Body Sect that came with the Tianhun Empire, and you, the people from Shrek Academy. We are all elites from various countries, and the participating teams are even more so. Catching us all in one fell swoop would be a significant blow to all countries. Furthermore, the fact that they dare to do this also means something else."

"The Sun-Moon Empire is ready for war!"

After a long while of talking, the entire conference room became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and there was no sound for a long time.

"Princess Jiujiu, just tell us directly what your plan is. The royal family of the Sun-Moon Empire dares to collude with evil soul masters and has become our Shrek's mortal enemy." Wu Xuan slowly put down the water glass and directly expressed his attitude.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiujiu and his bodyguard Manyi were instantly excited. This wasn't the first time he admired his royal brother. His royal brother had gone against everyone's will to give Captain Wu information about the 100,000-year-old soul beast as an advance investment, and now it seemed like it had been a good investment. Now the benefits were being realized.

What is the difference between the promise made by the next generation heir of Poseidon Pavilion and the promise made by Shrek’s top management themselves?

After the excitement subsided, Xu Jiujiu immediately explained the plan to Wu Xuan and the other three: "Everyone, the Sun-Moon Empire is now fully prepared, but we, the Three Douluo Kingdoms, are far from it. Therefore, we can't just leave like this. We must deal a sufficient blow to the Sun-Moon Empire in Mingdu."

"My original plan was to win over Vina from the Sky Soul Empire, and for the two countries to form a coalition to attack Mingde Hall. But now with the Shrek people joining us, I intend to set a bolder target. The current Sun Moon Empire's Crown Prince and Regent Xu Tianran is an out-and-out ambitious man and the biggest advocate of war in the Sun Moon Imperial Family. If he were assassinated, the Sun Moon Empire would inevitably fall into civil strife over the throne, and the Sun Moon Empire's political situation would be turbulent. Apart from other things, delaying the Sun Moon Empire's move to launch a war is definitely possible."
