Blind Ghostwriter: Starts with the full level of Nine Yang Magic Skill

Chapter 106 Thousand Machine Box

In the backyard of Nanting Villa, in the thick, inky night, everything was silent. The window of the room swayed quietly, and a shadow seemed to be peeled off from the depths of the darkness and slid in silently. The moonlight filtered in, outlining its vague outline, which turned out to be a human figure.

Nie Dongliu, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and whispered, "You bastard, do you want to die? Don't you know that the area around Nanting Villa is full of people from various sects? Aren't you afraid of being discovered and ruining the Moon Worship Cult's plans?"

Right by the window, a figure suddenly appeared, as if squeezed out from the darkness. A layer of faint fog lingered around him, as ethereal as a veil, but it covered his face tightly. The ghostly fog slowly surged, occasionally revealing a little outline, but it was instantly covered up, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

This person is the evil master and henchman who is number one on Yunzhou's blacklist and recognized as the most wanted criminal.

"hey-hey……"

The ghost laughed, his voice indescribably dry and hoarse. "Alliance Leader Nie, don't be angry. I'm just running errands for the Moon Worship Cult."

"say what?"

Although Nie Dongliu was very unhappy that the ghost entered his room without saying hello, he did not pursue it further because he was now one with the Moon Worship Sect. Although the ghost was not a member of the Moon Worship Sect, he was a master who was invited by the Moon Worship Sect at a huge cost to help. To a certain extent, he was also here to help him, Nie Dongliu. So, no matter how unhappy he was, he could not say much.

The henchman said with a smile, "Nie Dongliu, you've been exposed. Your useless subordinate Yin Tianye messed up everything."

The voices of the minions would become sharp from time to time, like nails scratching across glass, drilling straight into people's eardrums and making their scalps numb.

Nie Dongliu's pupils shrank slightly, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

The ghost continued, "You should also receive the news soon. At Fengming Ferry, Shen Bai showed up and protected Gu Mo."

Nie Dongliu frowned and said, "Even if someone tried to protect me, who would believe what Gu Mo said? Even if someone doubted me, it wouldn't have any big impact. They would just come to confront me."

"Hehe," the ghost laughed, "But, the problem is, that Gu Mo beat your subordinate to death. Well, not only that, six top masters from the six major sects plus many martial arts masters besieged Gu Mo, but he defeated them all by himself..."

Afterwards, the ghost briefly recounted what happened at Fengming Ferry.

After hearing this, Nie Dongliu turned pale and said in disbelief, "Impossible, this is impossible. How old is Gu Mo? He's only a young man. Even if he started practicing since his mother's womb, he's only been practicing for twenty years. How could he be so strong?"

The ghost said with a grin, "It's really hard to believe, but that's the truth. Just wait and see. In a few days, Gu Mo will be famous in the martial arts world and replace Yang Shentong as the new Grandmaster. A twenty-year-old who has already achieved the highest level of internal energy is truly unique to Scorpion. There are young martial arts Grandmasters, but for someone to become a Grandmaster in internal energy at such a young age is truly unheard of!"

Nie Dongliu's face turned grim. He said, "What should we do now? I've been exposed. I'm afraid that by now, all the sects in Qiandeng Town have received the news and are coming to attack me."

"Don't panic, everything will work out in time!"

"How can I not be panicked?" Nie Dongliu said angrily, "I originally colluded with you because I wanted to use my identity to trick the major sects into falling into the trap set by the Moon Worship Cult. They could not only severely damage the righteous martial arts world, but I could also naturally become the leader of the Faithful Alliance and then help the Moon Worship Cult gradually erode the righteous martial arts world.

But now, having come this far, I'm sure to become a pariah. You don't need to panic, since you're used to wandering around all year round. The Moon Worshipers shouldn't panic either, since they're used to being rats in the gutter. At worst, they'll just have to hide again, right?"

"Why are you so angry, Alliance Leader Nie?" the ghost said. "You and the Moon Worship Cult are in the same boat. In fact, when Yang Qingtong repeatedly escaped capture, the Moon Worship Cult had a backup plan. Because they realized someone was secretly helping Yang Qingtong, they were worried that Yang Qingtong would actually escape and ruin their plan. So, they made the backup plan just in case. We never thought it would actually be used now."

Nie Dongliu asked in surprise, "Are you saying that someone was helping Yang Qingtong escape all this time? Who was it? Have you found out?"

"No," the ghost said, "the other party is an expert, very cautious and vigilant, and has never shown his face. The Moon Worship Sect also speculated that there was an expert secretly protecting Yang Qingtong, but they don't know why that person has not shown his face. It seems that even Yang Qingtong herself doesn't know. And since Woniu Mountain, there has been no movement from that expert."

Nie Dongliu's face darkened as he said, "That is to say, besides Gu Mo, there are others who already knew that I killed Yang Shentong. However, for unknown reasons, they kept it a secret."

The ghost said: "Yes, the Moon Worship Sect has not figured out why. They want to protect Yang Qingtong, but they don't get involved in the affairs of the Moon Worship Sect and the major sects."

Nie Dongliu waved his hand and said, "I can't figure it out now. Even if I did, it would be meaningless. So, tell me about their second plan!"

The ghost said, "The second plan is based on Yang Qingtong successfully escaping capture and successfully exposing you in front of the various martial arts sects. This plan requires you, Alliance Leader Nie, to serve as bait to lure the major sects to Nanting Villa to attack you."

Nie Dongliu's face darkened. "You want me dead?" he asked. "We're in Qiandeng Town right now. Three Grandmasters are here, along with thousands of martial artists and experts. Furthermore, Qi Tianshu himself is here. He's ranked number seven on the Qian Nation Heavenly Ranking. Are you using me as bait? Are you sending me to my death?" The ghost said, "Alliance Leader Nie, don't worry. The Moon Worship Cult has already made arrangements. They've planted a lot of explosives in Nanting Villa. As soon as anyone from the major sects enters, they'll blow them to pieces."

Nie Dongliu said, "I heard they had to arrange a group of people to dig a tunnel under the villa a while ago. It turns out they were burying explosives. However, I don't deny that it's useful, but it's limited to experts. And don't forget, there are the three great masters, especially Qi Tianshu. If he wants to kill me, he only needs one sword!"

The ghost said, "The Moon Worship Sect has its own ways to deal with them, and the Moon Worship Sect is not short of martial arts masters."

"What? Is Ye Nantian, the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, here?" Nie Dongliu asked.

"No."

"Who in the Moon Worship Sect can deal with him?" Nie Dongliu asked. "Even though Nanting Villa has buried explosives, that stuff won't do much to ordinary masters, let alone Qi Tianshu. This place is not like the Barrier Valley where we planned to lure them. There's a poisonous miasma chasm there, and all sorts of traps that the Moon Worship Sect has long laid out. We also have the home field advantage. We can certainly deal with Qi Tianshu there, but who can deal with Qi Tianshu here? As long as Qi Tianshu doesn't fall, the Moon Worship Sect can't hope to win. Qi Tianshu's seventh place in the Qian Kingdom wasn't earned by the Canglan Sword Sect. It was the Canglan Sword Sect that became famous because of him."

The ghost said slowly, "The Moon Worship Sect is not sure about killing Qi Tianshu. I guess, even if the Moon Worship Sect leader comes in person, he may not be sure of killing Qi Tianshu. However, the Moon Worship Sect does not intend to kill Qi Tianshu. As long as Qi Tianshu is injured, the morale of the various martial arts sects will naturally fall."

Nie Dongliu asked quickly, "How is he injured?"

"Have you heard of the Thousand Machine Box?" asked the ghost.

"The Thousand Machine Box, ranked fifth among the world's top ten hidden weapons?" Nie Dongliu asked in surprise, "Hasn't this been lost for a hundred years?"

The ghost chuckled and said, "It's true that it's been lost for a hundred years, but it did exist a hundred years ago. The Moon Worship Cult spent a great deal of effort searching for clues, ultimately robbing over three hundred tombs and destroying over twenty sects. It took them nearly ten years to successfully find the three Thousand Machine Boxes."

Nie Dongliu said slowly, "With three Thousand Machine Boxes, we can attack them by surprise. It should be no problem to injure Qi Tianshu. Even if there is a suitable opportunity, it is not impossible to kill Qi Tianshu."

The ghost shook his head and said, "There are only two people who can deal with Qi Tianshu, and the other one has been taken away by Ju Shanyin."

"What did he do with it?"

"Kill Gu Mo!" the ghost said, "Gu Mo not only destroyed the Moon Worship Sect's plan, but also killed Dou Ruohua, the disciple of Tianqi, the White Tiger Helm Master of the Moon Worship Sect, at Woniu Mountain. Ren Tianqi wanted Gu Mo dead.

In addition, Ju Shanyin is also responsible for intercepting the group of masters from various factions who are now rushing back from Fengming Ferry. The leaders of the Sanjiang Gang and the Feiyu Gang, and the head of the Wu family are all there. Intercepting them means that the manpower of the Sanjiang Gang, the Feiyu Gang and the Wu family here will be relatively loose, which will greatly reduce the pressure on our side. At the same time, if we can kill those people, it will also be a heavy blow to the Yunzhou martial arts world.

However, Gu Mo was with them at the time, and Ju Shanyin was also impressed by Gu Mo's performance at Fengming Ferry today, so he didn't dare to go. That's why he brought a Thousand Machine Box with him just in case.

Nie Dongliu said, "Ju Shanyin is too timid. Gu Mo has fought many battles tonight, and the leaders of the major sects have all been injured. What is there to be afraid of? He is simply useless!"

The ghost chuckled and said, "Well, how about this? If Gu Mo doesn't die this time, you'll be the one to hunt him down then?"

Nie Dongliu: “…”

"How is it, Alliance Leader Nie?" the ghost asked.

Nie Dongliu: "Well, Qi Tianshu is no simple matter. We must make good use of that Thousand Machine Box..."

The ghost said again: "Alliance Leader Nie, I promise that when the time comes, Gu Mo will also go through a huge battle without any rest. How about you kill Gu Mo?"

Nie Dongliu: "Oh right, that explosive, make sure it's buried in the right place..."

"Alliance Leader Nie, you haven't said whether you will kill Gu Mo or not?"

Nie Dongliu: “…”
