"Bamboo hat man, you know everything, what do you think?"

The hall was quiet, Huangfu Wuji looked into the shadows and asked.

"My lord, according to my subordinates, those remarks that slander the Huangfu family are insignificant, they are just the talk of ordinary people. How do ordinary people think that the Huangfu family is important? How much threat can they pose to the Huangfu family?"

"At most, it's just a loss of some image. At worst, wait for the limelight to pass, and then adults will act to guide public opinion. Anyway, ordinary people are the easiest to be deceived, Jie Jie Jie."

The man in the bamboo hat smiled disapprovingly, this made many children of the Huangfu family nod their heads, and this is indeed the case.

They only thought that their face was lost, but when they thought about it carefully, the actual loss was not that great!

"Compared to the public opinion in the imperial capital, adults should care more about the attitudes of the various forces."

"Among the inside stories revealed by the other party this time, the worst thing is actually the matter about the Underworld Palace. Especially the matter that we hunted and killed the owners of the extreme organs in various places. This matter touched the sensitive interests of various forces."

"The reason why Gu Chen mobilized the people in the Heavenly Court to break the news is probably not to disgust the Huangfu family, but to make the Huangfu family feel hostile from various forces."

The man in the hat made an extremely reasonable analysis, which made the whole group of Huangfu's family tense up.

The Huangfu family now has Tianjing Mansion in the open, and Mingshen Palace in the dark, so it can be said that they are extremely powerful.

But if it offends all forces, it is still extremely dangerous.

"I started from scratch over the years, and I have stepped on the blood of countless people. The major forces in Kyushu are more or less open or covert, and they are hostile to me. What is there to be afraid of?"

Huangfu Wuji replied calmly, not paying attention to those people.

"Jie Jie, it's natural for adults not to take them to heart, but Gu Chen obviously came prepared, I'm afraid he won't stop here, and he will make a move later."

"Besides, my lord, don't forget that our plan is about to come true. It would be bad if something unexpected happens at this time."

Huangfu Wuji's pupils shrank at the subtle reminder from the man in the bamboo hat. Compared with all other things, the upcoming plan is the most important!

So, in order to prevent accidents, this matter must be properly handled.

"Grandpa, why should you care about the remnants of the Gu family?"

At this time, Huangfu Qingming strode in from outside the hall, with fierce eyes shining.

When Huangfu Wuji saw his grandson, his face softened a lot.

Compared with other people in this hall, this grandson is what he values ​​most.

None of the second-generation children of Huangfu's family was promising. Although there were many third-generation children, only Huangfu Qingming made him most satisfied.

He has devoted a lot of effort to him, and he is the undoubted next successor of the Huangfu family.

"Qing Ming, do you have any ideas?" Huangfu Wuji asked.

"It's very simple. Didn't the remnants of the Gu family advance to the finals? After the finals, I killed him, and it's over!"

Huangfu Qingming sneered.

"The other party is tyrannical, do you have confidence?" Huangfu Wuji asked indifferently.

"Hmph, Grandpa, I admit that your Heavenly Overlord is really powerful, but my innate Taoism is not bad! I am proficient in various schools of spells, and I have good luck. How can he, a barbarian who came out of the Eastern Wasteland, compare with me? ?”

"I will let him know what despair is, and make him regret that he shouldn't appear in the sight of the Huangfu family!"

"I will peel off his skin, cut off all the flesh on his body, take out his overbearing bones, and hand them over to you, Grandpa!"

Huangfu Qingming said proudly, his words were full of confidence.

Everyone in the Huangfu family was excited when they heard that, that's right, no matter how arrogant the remnants of the Gu family are, when they reach the finals and meet Qing Ming, they will definitely die!

"I understand, you prepare for the final. You all step back."

Huangfu Wuji didn't have much joy, and let everyone else leave the hall, including Huangfu Qingming, and only the man in the bamboo hat was left.

"Qingming is young and energetic, and only thinks about using force to solve problems. In terms of resourcefulness, he is obviously not as good as the remnants of the Gu family. In your opinion, how should we deal with it?"

Huangfu Wuji said.

"Jie Jie, then Gu Chen's target is probably you, my lord. Although I don't know what he intends to do, if he wants to bring down the Huangfu family, he alone can't do it. Behind this, it should be the order of the Heavenly Emperor."

"You mean that the old man in Tianting might take the opportunity to make a move?" Huangfu Wuji frowned deeply.

"I'm afraid there is such a possibility. After all, my Underworld Palace has developed so rapidly in just a few decades. It is a threat to the Heavenly Court." The man in the bamboo hat nodded.

"That old man has been huddled in the Heavenly Palace for so many years. If he is in his state, if he makes a casual move, it should hurt his vitality. Why did he take the risk?"

"The last time Jiang Yige, Daoist of the Heavenly Court, investigated our affairs, his subordinates suspected that the Emperor of Heaven already knew about our relationship with Huangquanlou."

The eyes of the man in the bamboo hat flickered.

"If so, it's no wonder."

Huangfu Wuji's pupils shrank.

"In your opinion, if I were to fight that old immortal now, what chance would I have of winning?"

The man in the bamboo hat pondered for a moment. "The Emperor of Heaven has lived for nine thousand years, has mastered the unique art of the Emperor's Time Fist, and has two great treasures, the Time Stone and the Book of Heaven. With your current strength, my lord, if you fight against him, even if you can win, it will be a miserable victory."

Huangfu Wuji grinned coldly. "You are too polite. If that old man fights with me with the determination to die, I will definitely die!"

"But he can't do that. He cherishes his life more than anyone else."

The man in the bamboo hat smiled strangely.

"In any case, no matter what the remnants of the Gu family want to do, there is no reason for the Emperor to act, especially at this juncture!"

"I guess that old man mainly wants to test my bottom, not because he wants to die, but think of a way to force that Gu Chen to withdraw from the meeting. In this way, no matter what schemes he has, they will all come to nothing!"

Huangfu Wuji said.

"My lord, that kid wants to kick you off the altar with all his heart. If he wants to withdraw from the conference, I'm afraid he can only count on the emperor."

Huangfu Wuji's heart moved. "I understand what you mean."

...

On the second day of the martial arts competition, the competition between the third division and the fourth division was in full swing.

After experiencing the jaw-dropping battle in the second division, the battles in the third and fourth divisions returned to normal, and the battle was very stalemate and tragic.

It's just that apart from watching the game today, the audience was talking about the news that shocked the entire Luoyang last night.

Even at the VIP table, there were quite a few bigwigs discussing about the Huangfu family.

But Huangfu Wuji did not come to watch the battle today!

"Huangfude, why didn't your father come over today?"

Emperor Yanghong asked with concern.

"Please tell your Majesty, my father is feeling unwell."

Huangfude hesitated.
