Standing on the scorched ground, Ali said to Shen Lian, "Sir, when I brought people here, this place was already engulfed in flames. Fortunately, we discovered it early, and there were people left outside to watch over it, so we quickly organized firefighters.

"This is how we put out the fire in the shortest possible time, preventing it from spreading to the surrounding areas and causing greater losses."

"But this fantasy palace..."

Ali looked at the ashes all over the ground and sighed, "It's still half burned. Almost all the equipment of everyone has been burned to ashes."

"We got here quickly, otherwise, those corpses would have been burned to ashes."

Shen Lian's eyes swept across the charred fantasy palace. The originally lush trees were gone.

Most of the buildings that looked relatively magnificent only have some main pillars left.

Many things were burned completely by this fire.

Now, it’s really hard to find any clues.

After Shen Lian learned that Tianquan was still alive, he said goodbye to Li Shimin and went to Huanfu as soon as possible to look for some clues left by Tianquan.

But who knew that Tian Quan was so cruel.

Not only did he kill everyone in the Fantasy Mansion, he also burned down this unique place that had probably taken decades to build.

Now, there really is nothing.

The Fantasy Mansion of the Huan Family, which was said to be a reproduction of the Fantasy Mansion of the mythological era, has become a scorched earth.

Naturally, all traces of Tianquan were burned clean by this fire.

Seeing this scene, Shen Lian couldn't help but recall the first time the two formally met when Tian Quan was still pretending to be stupid.

At that time, Tianquan did just that, using all his strength, even bombs, to solve the problem in one go.

It is to prevent myself from finding any substantial clues about him.

Now, it will be the same again.

This made Shen Lian feel a little dazed, and he felt that the fight between the two seemed to have happened just yesterday.

He retracted his gaze and said, "It's probably confirmed. Tian Quan's character, if the previous indirect evidence was 90% certain, now seeing this familiar method, it is 100% certain."

Tianquan did come back to life.

But Tianquan’s identity remains a mystery.

Who is he?

But...people who die can come back to life.

I am not a god, so I may not be deceived.

Without complete evidence, thinking more will only cause more trouble.

He collected his thoughts and looked at the body lying in the yard.

These corpses were all killed with a single blow.

The incisions were all at the throat.

The direction and depth of all the knife wounds were exactly the same.

It can be seen that it was indeed all done by one person, and this person's kung fu is extremely high, far surpassing these people.

This will leave these people completely helpless.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the wounds to be so regular.

"Ali."

Shen Lian suddenly spoke.

Ali came over quickly: "Sir."

Shen Lian said: "Can you do this? Kill them with one blow, and in a short period of time, kill more than a hundred people without alerting our people who are surrounding the Huan Mansion outside."

Ali didn't even hesitate and just shook his head.

He said, "If it was just one blow to kill them, I'm confident I can do it, but every blow is so accurate, as if they were made from the same mold. My lord, I can't do it. After all, these people won't just stand there quietly and wait for me to kill them."

……

"Not to mention, this kind of killing will not alarm our people outside."

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said, "You are well-informed and have mastered the intelligence system. How many people in the entire Tang Dynasty do you think can do this?"

Ali looked at Shen Lian and said, "If we simply kill these people, we can accomplish a lot, but to make it look like this..."

Ali paused for a moment and said, "As far as I can remember, there is only one person who can do this."

"Who?" Shen Lian asked hurriedly.

Ali looked at Shen Lian and said, "You, sir."

Shen Lian: “……”

"Besides me?"

Ali shook his head: "Then I can't think of it."

"call….…"

Shen Lian exhaled slowly and said, "So, Tian Quan's strength is extremely terrifying, surpassing all the famous generals and warriors in the Tang Dynasty. But he has always been hiding his incompetence and has never used his terrifying skills?"

"Otherwise, a person like this, even if he is capable of hiding his identity and exposing himself, would not be unknown to even you, the intelligence chief."

Ali thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"How can you be so patient! You might as well just call him a turtle."

Ali thought about it carefully and nodded seriously: "This name is very suitable."

Shen Lian smiled broadly.

But Tianquan’s ability is really strong!
Not only is he smart and good at planning, he is also a master of martial arts.

This kind of Tianquan is very similar to Sima Yi in history.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes.

"Master Shen."

At this time, a Jinyiwei suddenly ran over. He bowed to Shen Lian and said, "Sir, a child just came over and said that someone asked him to personally deliver a letter to you."

"child?"

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something, and said, "Let him come over."

Not long after, a little boy about four or five years old was brought over.

The child's face was rosy, and he held a candied haws in one hand and a letter in the other.

After seeing Shen Lian, I was still a little scared.

Shen Lian touched the child's head and said gently, "Do you still remember what the person who gave you the candied haws and asked you to deliver the letter to me looks like?"

The little boy was very surprised: "How did you know that someone gave me a candied haws and asked me to deliver a letter for him?"

Shen Lian smiled and said, "When you grow up, you will know."

"Oh." The little boy nodded, not feeling surprised.

Ali and others twitched their eyes, wondering if it was appropriate for adults to lie to children like this?

When you grow up, you will know...
They are not young anymore, how come they don’t know?
This is a brain problem, it has nothing to do with age.

Shen Lian said gently: "Do you still remember what that person looks like?"

The little boy frowned and thought for a while, then said, "That was an uncle with long hair and a scary pale face, and then... I don't remember anything else."

uncle?

His face was so pale, was it because he had been pretending to be dead for quite some time and was in poor health? So, it was basically certain that Tianquan had sent the child to deliver the message.

As soon as Tianquan slipped away, he couldn't wait to ask someone to send him a letter. What did he want to do?
Aren’t you afraid that you will be able to follow the clues and turn his fake death into real death?

Shen Lian's eyes flickered a few times, and then he took the letter.

He wanted to see what Tian Quan, who had just escaped, was up to.

Tianquan had planned this move long ago. Beidouhui is an organization that has been passed down for thousands of years. Dealing with it will definitely be different from dealing with ordinary forces.

So let Tianquan be reborn so that he can fight wits and courage with the protagonist and Beidou.

This will form a three-way balance of power, with more strategies and more interesting plans.

I just don't know which side Kaiyang is on in this game.

Shen Lian glanced at the envelope.

The envelope was very clean, without any patterns or writings.

He tore open the envelope, took the letter out, and opened the envelope.

Looking up, I saw a passage.

"Personally from Shen Lian:
When you see this letter, I have been reborn. Thank you very much for your cooperation. If you don't fight against Beidou Society, if you don't put huge pressure on Beidou Society, so that Beidou Society will do everything possible to deal with you, I will not have the chance to be reborn.

So, I am very grateful to you! And I don't want to owe you a favor. Even though you didn't mean to help me be reborn, I do acknowledge your kindness.

Therefore, I am willing to help you this time and help you deal with the Beidou Society.

I know many secrets of Beidou Society, and I also know many secrets of Beichen. I believe... you, and even the Chu Palace, need my help, so I will help you this time, and we will owe each other nothing in the future!
Wait for my news, and when the time comes to deal with Beidou, I will take the initiative to find you."

The letter was not long and Shen Lian finished reading it in one glance.

After he understood Tianquan's meaning, he just sneered.

"She's got the advantage but she still acts cute. This is the kind of bitch I'm talking about."

Ali couldn't help but ask, "Sir, what did Tianquan say?"

"See for yourself."

Shen Lian gave the letter to Ali.

Ali glanced at it and was a little surprised: "He wants to help adults to deal with the Beidou Society?"

Shen Lian laughed and said, "Help? Ali, don't be fooled by Tian Quan's words. Don't have a good impression of him just because of this letter. Otherwise, you will be sold out by him and still count money for him."

"He is such a slut. He even said that he was grateful to me for letting him be reborn. This is clearly a deliberate provocation. He knows my character very well and knows that I am a very proud person. He used me to be reborn and said this. It is obvious that he did it to piss me off."

"As for the series of so-called gangs that followed, they were just excuses he made up. Now the people who really want to kill Beichen and overthrow the Beidou Society... are not us at all, but him!"

Shen Lian smiled and said, "He knows Beidou very well, and Beidou knows him very well, right? So now, in addition to guarding against me, he also has to guard against Beidou! And I am currently..."

Shen Lian chuckled and continued, "I have the support of the imperial court behind me. He knows he can't solve it."

"So, he can only think of a way to get rid of the Beidou Society first, so as to avoid the dilemma of being attacked from all sides!"

"What do you mean by help us? It's obvious that he wants to use us to help him deal with the Beidou Society!"

"We contributed, and he got the benefits, but he came and said he was helping us, and he said all the good things. Tell me, is Tian Quan a bastard?"

Ali touched his nose and seemed to understand how thick Tianquan's face was.

He couldn't help but say: "This Tianquan is really good at changing the concept!"

"Ah."

Shen Lian sneered: "No matter how he changes the concept, the essence remains unchanged. He can fool others, but he can't fool me."

"Then sir, what should we do? Should we cooperate with him?" Ali asked.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Cooperation? Of course we have to cooperate."

"Isn't he very grateful to me for helping him to be reborn? Then I will naturally charge some interest."

"But just now, sir, didn't you just say..."

Shen Lian interrupted Ali with a smile: "He plotted against us, so why can't we plot against him? He wants to use us, so we can also make his use... truly become the help he just mentioned."

Ali was a little confused by Shen Lian's words.

But when he saw Shen Lian's familiar smile, his scalp subconsciously began to tingle.

Because every time Shen Lian showed such a smile, he was thinking of a very sinister plot.

It is obvious that Tianquan's provocation was successful.

My lord...

Is he planning another trick?

"Alright, stop thinking about it. It's useless to think too much. Beichen and Tianquan are not people you can deal with right now."

Shen Lian waved his hand: "Tian Quan's rebirth is not a bad thing for me."

"As a mysterious organization that has been passed down for thousands of years, the Beidou Society has a very deep foundation and is extremely hidden. This is far beyond the reach of ordinary forces. It is not easy for me, or even His Highness, or the Chu Palace, to dig him out."

"But it's different now. There's someone from the Beidou Society who wants to deal with the Beidou Society. This is a huge opportunity for us."

"As long as you plan well, it may not be impossible to kill two birds with one stone. In short..."

Shen Lian pointed to his head and said, "It depends on who loses more brain cells next."

Originally, on the chessboard, only Shen Lian and Beichen were placing their own pieces.

Now, there is suddenly an unexpected chess player who has violently inserted himself into the chessboard between the two, making the situation even more complicated.

Shen Lian felt that this was not a bad thing.

After all, the deeper and more turbid the water is, the more he can do.

Be messy, the messier the better.

The more chaotic it is, the more tricks he will have at the end of the day.

As Shen Lian walked out, he said, "Spread the news. Tianquan has been reborn and slaughtered everyone in Huanfu. It's time to let Beichen and Beidou know about this surprise."

"Yes!" Ali nodded quickly.

With his ability as an intelligence chief, it was just a matter of spreading some information. It couldn't be simpler.

Shen Lian hummed a tune softly, looked up at the blue sky, and felt really good.

The more difficult opponents you have, the more fun life will be, isn't it?

Not to mention, he has already begun to see the signs of the end of the Beidou Society.

He plotted against Tianquan, but didn't let him die completely...Beidou Club, there will be some fun to watch.

…………

Time passes day by day.

After the incident in the Fantasy Palace that day, the whole of Chang'an became quiet.

It was as if after a storm, the warm sunshine illuminated the earth and the world became a beautiful place.

But Shen Lian knew that this calmness was just a manifestation of the undercurrent.

Beidou and Beichen will not rest in peace.

Tianquan will never be quiet.

As far as he knew, the two had already fought twice.

But every time, nothing big happened.
