Chapter 583 Offering Fish 19
Everything seems peaceful on one side, while on the other, everyone harbors their own ulterior motives.
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Palace said with a solemn expression, "According to reliable sources, Sima Jiao will be in an extremely weak state on the night of the new moon. This is undoubtedly the best time for us to attack and seriously injure Sima Jiao."
Shi Qianlu hesitated, saying, "This... it's still unknown whether the news is true. If we attack rashly and our master is harmed, it would be a huge loss for our Gengchen Immortal Mansion. In my opinion, this matter needs to be carefully considered and we should not act rashly."
The Palace Master of Yin Palace snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Hmph, you think this won't work and that won't work? Are you just going to watch this opportunity slip away? There's no need for you all to put on airs anymore. I'm definitely going. As long as we can seize this opportunity to seriously injure Sima Jiao, we can successfully obtain the legendary Blood Coagulation Flower. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so you should all think it over carefully."
Upon hearing this, the other palace masters were all moved. They exchanged glances and saw undisguised greed in each other's eyes.
After a moment of silence, someone finally broke the deadlock: "This..."
However, before he could finish speaking, everyone understood and was clearly swayed by the words of the Palace Master of the Yin Palace.
Finally, after weighing the pros and cons, the eight palace masters reached a consensus—to attack the Three Sacred Mountains on the night of the new moon and severely injure Sima Jiao.
Shi Qianlu stood aside, quietly watching this scene. Although his face was full of worry, if you looked closely at his eyes, you would find a trace of indifference and mockery hidden deep in them.
Time flies, and the new moon night arrives quietly as promised.
At the top of the central tower of Sansheng Mountain, two figures stood quietly like sculptures, their figures appearing exceptionally well-matched under the moonlight.
Upon closer inspection, the two were actually Lin Jiu and Sima Jiao.
Lin Jiu gazed towards the foot of the mountain, as if he could see the people rushing towards him through the layers of mountains.
She murmured softly, "I didn't expect that they would actually all come."
Lin Jiu knew this was Sima Jiao's plan, but she had previously thought that not all palace masters would come, such as Yuan Che, the palace master of the Four Seasons Palace. She had a good impression of him, but now she was a little disappointed.
Sima Jiao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile. His voice carried a hint of disdain: "If they don't seize this opportunity, how can they be content? People all succumb to desire and greed; these so-called righteous people are nothing but a fig leaf."
Lin Jiu nodded, agreeing with him; that was indeed the case.
Then, turning his gaze to Shi Qianlu and the Palace Master of the Star Palace who had stayed at the foot of the mountain and had not come up with him, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes as he asked, "However, will the absence of Shi Qianlu and the Palace Master of the Star Palace affect your plans?"
Sima Jiao replied confidently, "No problem. That old fox Shi Qianlu would never take such a risk unless he verified that the information was indeed true. As for the Palace Master of the Star Palace, he is cowardly as a mouse, so it was expected that he would not come, and he is not indispensable. In addition to the Palace Master, his direct bloodline can also be released from this seal."
Seeing Sima Jiao's confident demeanor, Lin Jiu's worries gradually dissipated.
She knew that Sima Jiao definitely had more tricks up his sleeve. In that case, all she had to do was wait for those people to walk right into her trap and become sitting ducks.
