Chapter 12677
Looking at the present situation, things are indeed quite tricky.
Lin Yi turned to look at Zhang Baiyu: "Di Qingfan has made a move?"
In terms of manipulating people's hearts, the only one in Tianjun who could make him wary was this Emperor Jiyi.
In comparison, although the lineage of Confucius also had its share of methods, they were far inferior.
The fact that these grassroots cultivators are behaving so abnormally suggests that Kong Jisheng is definitely not the only one pulling the strings behind the scenes.
"Nothing has been done on the surface."
Zhang Baiyu replied.
Lin Yi nodded: "If it were so easy for someone to find fault with me, I wouldn't be called the Supreme Emperor."
The more this is the case, the more it confirms his judgment.
In this way, a clear outline has been revealed to Lin Yi.
Emperor Jiyi, Kong Jisheng, Chen Agou.
However, these three people may not actually be accomplices with the same goal. Putting aside everything else, it is questionable whether the latter two are even aware of the existence of the Ultimate Emperor.
Whether it's Kong Jisheng or Chen Agou, they are most likely just pawns of the Supreme Emperor.
How about clearing the table in one shot?
Lin Yi couldn't help but have this thought pop into his head.
If we cannot directly resolve the issue of the Supreme Emperor, there will always be another Kong Jisheng, another Chen Agou, and we will never truly address the root cause.
With his current strength, at least theoretically, he has the opportunity to break through all laws with his own strength.
However, Lin Yi quickly suppressed this thought.
It's not that I'm afraid of failure, but rather that I have a gut feeling about it.
The Ultimate Emperor is not that simple.
It is certain that Di Qingfan is the Supreme Emperor, but it is not necessarily true that eliminating Di Qingfan will completely eliminate the Supreme Emperor.
If we were to make a move against Di Qingfan, it wouldn't be a permanent solution; alerting him would be a much bigger problem.
"Wait a minute."
Lin Yi cast his gaze toward Fugui Township.
Zhang Baiyu, standing to the side, understood and said, "I investigated that Chen Agou, and he's not simple at all."
Lin Yi asked in surprise, "How is it not simple?"
Given Zhang Baiyu's strength and vision, there are truly very few people in Tianjun who can live up to his four-word evaluation.
Even if Chen Agou is a rare master of the Five-Zhang Dharma Aspect, he might not normally be qualified.
Zhang Baiyu reached out and made a gesture, and a map immediately appeared in front of him, showing all the major areas of Tianjun clearly.
Above each region, there are specially evaluated resource indices and corresponding expert levels.
Zhang Baiyu pointed at Fugui Township: "This person is deeply tied to Fugui Township, but with the resources of Fugui Township, it is normal that it cannot produce a 50-zhang Dharma Aspect expert."
Lin Yi asked doubtfully, "He's not the only grassroots expert with a five-zhang Dharma form, is he?"
"He is certainly not the only one."
Zhang Baiyu shook his head and said, "But whether in history or now, all the five-zhang Dharma Aspect masters who came from humble backgrounds are in other regions. He is the only one who came from Fugui Township and is deeply connected with Fugui Township."
"Furthermore, since his rise to power, the distribution of experts in Fugui Township has been quite abnormal."
Lin Yi glanced at the other districts.
The overall strength varies, but within the region, the level of experts is basically distributed in a pyramid shape.
Only the wealthy and powerful are different.
At the top, there's only Chen Agou standing out from the crowd. Below, there aren't even any experts with a six-zhang Dharma Aspect, let alone a seven-zhang Dharma Aspect. It's like a cliff-like gap.
Lin Yi seemed thoughtful: "It is indeed a bit unusual."
Zhang Baiyu said quietly, "With all the resources of Fugui Township concentrated on providing a five-zhang Dharma Aspect expert, is this some kind of coincidence, or is it a deliberate act?"
Lin Yi smiled and said, "You'll have to tell me the answer."
now.
Fugui Township had just experienced a chaotic battle, and at Chen Agou's feet lay a bloody head.
Hong Lang, this newly promoted master of the Six-Zhang Dharma Form, hadn't even had a chance to shine before he became the background figure for Chen Agou, this grassroots hero.
The lower classes celebrated wildly.
It was their tragedy to fall into a life of luxury, but fortunately, Chen Agou stood up for them.
Otherwise, I really don't know how I would have survived these dark and hopeless days.
"Brother Chen is awesome!"
A group of grassroots experts gathered and joined the crowd in echoing their sentiments.
Although they are not as deeply connected to Fugui Township as Chen Agou, many of them have come from Fugui Township.
Others, though having no connection with Fugui Township, also came to show their support out of respect for Chen Agou.
Chen Agou, full of high spirits, said, "You've come at the perfect time! I've had some good wine warmed up, let's all have a good drink!"
"okay!"
The entire audience responded enthusiastically.
Given the conditions of Fugui Township, the banquet facilities naturally cannot compare with those of aristocratic families, but the emphasis is on a lively scene and a vibrant atmosphere.
The group drank two cups with Chen Agou.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chen, Tianwu Hall is clearly keeping us at arm's length. What do we do next?"
The group of grassroots experts fell silent and stared at Chen Agou.
In any case, Tianwu Hall is an opportunity they absolutely cannot miss.
Although they are now collectively driven by some kind of subconscious brainwashing, they have not yet completely lost their true nature.
That deep-seated longing was impossible to suppress.
Chen Agou slowly drank a cup, savoring the aroma for a moment, before slowly saying:
"Tianwu Hall cannot do without us. Without us, Tianwu Hall has no reason to exist."
If others heard this, they would definitely think it was crazy.
Everyone present agreed wholeheartedly.
Chen Agou continued, "This is the negotiation strategy. Now it depends on which side can remain calm. If you all stay calm, you will be able to surpass the powerful families and hold your heads high in the future."
“If you all can’t stay calm, then you’ll be dogs for others forever, and you won’t even get a few bones.”
"You must know in your hearts where to go and what to do."
Everyone immediately nodded in agreement: "We understand! Following Brother Chen is always the right thing to do!"
Chen Agou gestured for everyone to fall silent.
Chen Agou said with burning eyes, "Brothers, we've been oppressed for too long, so long that we've all forgotten how to be upright people."
"We must tell everyone that Tianjun is not the Tianjun of the aristocratic families; Tianjun belongs to us!"
"Tianwu Hall is just the beginning."
"We not only want to get back the spot in Tianwu Hall, but also all the resources, including the racetrack!"
"The days when those powerful and influential families rode on our heads and squeezed our marrow are over. From now on, we are above them and they are below us!"
His words ignited everyone's passion.
The scene Chen Agou described was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.
But now, everyone feels as if everything is within their grasp!
"Brother Chen is right! From now on, we'll all follow Brother Chen! If Brother Chen points east, nobody can go west!"
When someone instigates it, others will naturally chime in.
The banquet turned into a rally for a group of grassroots experts.
However, some people still managed to remain somewhat clear-headed. (End of Chapter)
