Chapter 487 Fierce Rumors, Spirit Boat Alliance
“Speaking of which, I’ve heard of you too,” Tang Qingying suddenly said.
Chu Lengyu immediately had a bad feeling.
Tang Qingying continued, "I heard that the Parasite Clan suffered a great loss in the lower realm, and the Parasite Plague God even personally issued a kill order for it."
"Moreover, the Parasite Clan quickly assembled a team to capture him, laying a tight net, but he still managed to escape. This was widely publicized by the Enchantress Clan, and the Parasite Clan lost face completely."
She spoke in a light and slightly mischievous tone, clearly indicating that the Parasitic Clan had suffered a significant setback, something Chu Lengyu was unaware of.
Her understanding of the eleven plague gods was still very superficial, and she was also unclear about the relationship between the various races. The information she knew about the demon realm came almost entirely from the memories of the parasitic race, which was inevitably biased, so she could not believe it completely.
However, Tang Qingying is different. She has a long-standing grudge against the Demon Realm and holds an important position in the Myriad Star Alliance. The information she possesses should be several levels higher than hers.
Taking the opportunity, Chu Lengyu asked, "Those three masked men from last time, and that Taoist priest..."
She paused slightly at this point.
High-level cultivators have the characteristic of knowing what is said, so she did not mention his name directly, but Tang Qingying understood his meaning as soon as she heard it.
Tang Qingying pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Those three are indeed from the Ziwei Star Palace. As for the matter of that Emperor, it is quite complicated, involving the power struggle between many forces, and cannot be explained in a few words."
To explain this in detail, we would need to analyze the intricate relationships between the forces of the Twenty-Four Star Domains and the Twelve Sacred Realms.
Only by understanding these secrets can we gain insight into the many things that were previously incomprehensible, by stepping outside the chessboard.
Such intelligence is naturally invaluable.
Tang Qingying emerged from the lower realm, enduring numerous encirclements and captures before narrowly escaping. She paid a heavy price to gather this intelligence.
For example, in order to infiltrate the secret chamber of Wenxing Pavilion to access relevant information, she spent nearly two hundred years just to forge an identity that was enough to get close to the secret chamber.
At that time, she was extremely envious of the parasitic talent of her enemy, who could impersonate others and discover many secrets without anyone noticing.
She devoted so much time and energy, and the rewards were substantial.
"The Record of the Primordial Chaos," "Notes from the Star Studio," "An Outline of the History of the Eight Desolations," "Illustrated Explanation of the Three Realms," "A Study of the Crimson Light Calamity"... one classic book after another, like keys, opened the door to the secrets of the history of the starry sea for her.
How could I possibly tell others these things for nothing?
Tang Qingying suppressed her thoughts, smiled slightly, and then said, "However, the fact that the Parasitic Plague God took direct action for you that night was not what I expected."
Each time the Eleven Plague Gods personally take action, they have to pay a huge price. However, such top-tier beings above the ninth rank rarely have the opportunity to make a move.
She once used the Void Storm to inflict heavy casualties on high-level demons, but the God of Plague did not personally intervene. Otherwise, she, who was still weak at that time, would have had no chance of escaping.
Therefore, the parasitic plague god was so angry that he took action himself not long ago. Knowing that he was no match for the Ziwei Emperor, he still insisted on doing so, which really surprised Tang Qingying.
Seeing this, Chu Lengyu decided to recount in detail the whole story of her grudges with the parasitic clan.
Although she deliberately omitted the details about the system, she suspected that Tang Qingying could guess some of it.
After all, her rapid progress in cultivation was her biggest flaw, which was difficult to conceal.
Chu Lengyu deliberately emphasized the mention of the Demon Abyss Water. Tang Qingying listened thoughtfully and said, "The Demon Abyss is a forbidden place, and I have never set foot there. I will have Danzhu keep a close eye on information about the Demon Abyss. However, the news that the Demon Abyss Water can fight against the God of War and even destroy the statue that possesses him can be spread."
Chu Lengyu nodded slightly. She had approached the Myriad Stars Alliance with the intention of using its channels to muddy the waters.
However, this matter concerns the God of Plague and involves rare items like the Water of the Demon Abyss. She would not easily reveal it unless she was certain of its authenticity.
Unfortunately, Tang Qingying didn't seem to take it too seriously.
Chu Lengyu did not press the matter further. Their relationship was still shallow, and whether she was direct or tactful, going too far would be counterproductive and might annoy others.
Or perhaps, it was because Tang Qingying was knowledgeable that her judgment differed.
At this moment, Tang Qingying suddenly remembered something and reminded her, "The Void-Clearing Ring that appeared at the auction was actually a trap sent by the Parasitic Clan to lure the snake out of its hole."
Upon hearing this, Chu Lengyu's expression remained unchanged, and she calmly replied, "I have already noticed."
Tang Qingying nodded slightly and continued, "As for the Star Locking Network, you can rest assured. After my research, I have a solution. Now, let's settle your matter first, and then discuss other things."
His tone was confident, as if leaving the matter to her would solve no problem.
When Chu Lengyu heard that she was going to help him save the Great Xia world without mentioning any price, he was surprised but not too much of a surprise.
Inside the Star-Traveling Immortal Ship, not a single person was moving about; the surroundings were utterly silent.
When Danzhu introduced it, he also emphasized its offensive and defensive system. At that time, Chu Lengyu had doubts. Was the Nine Luminaries really just an ordinary cargo ship?
Now it seems that even if it truly belongs to the Myriad Star Alliance, it has already been controlled by Tang Qingying. This voyage is headed straight for the Great Xia World.
"What exactly are your plans?" Chu Lengyu asked curiously.
She still vividly remembered what Tang Qingying had just said.
The Parasite Clan has lost all face and probably hates her to the extreme. The Parasite Goddess was also publicly disfigured because she had just had a fight with the Purple Emperor.
Thinking about it this way, Chu Lengyu felt a little scared. The fact that the Great Xia World wasn't directly destroyed was already a testament to the patience of the parasitic race.
How can this situation be saved?
Tang Qingying explained in a low voice: "This matter is not difficult to resolve. I have three strategies: superior, middle, and inferior."
"The best course of action is to spend a fortune to avoid trouble. I can use the banner of the Myriad Star Alliance to find a reason to directly buy the Great Xia World. However, Si Que, who is in charge of this matter, is inflexible, and the chances of a successful negotiation are not very high, probably only about 30% at most."
"The middle strategy is to deceive everyone and secretly move the people of the Great Xia world while maintaining the appearance. Although we have to leave our homeland, at least we can save our lives."
Tang Qingying sighed inwardly. If time could be turned back, she would choose to relocate all the people in her hometown to avoid a lifetime of regret.
She composed herself and continued, "The worst option is to drive away the wolves and tigers, and fish in troubled waters. I can draw the Star Palace into the fray, creating a conflict between the two sides, and survive in the cracks. This is the easiest thing to do, but it will also save the fewest people."
For Tang Qingying, these were all trivial matters.
Instead of urging Chu Lengyu to make a decision quickly, she said, "If you have other ideas, you can also speak up and we can discuss them."
"As long as it's not excessive, I'll help you."
