1495 Good Move (2/2)
”Old Bu, tell me what you got these days. Did you see anything interesting?” Ye Xiao blandly asked.
The world was full of danger these days. How would he recklessly go out when he was so weak at the moment?
He just stayed inside his own place and tried to improve. He was waiting for the city to return to peace.
When the other forces finished fighting for territories, the real game started.
Everybody knew it.
That was why none of the true powerful figures showed up in the battles!
”The City of Chaos… has become a city in true chaos now.” Bu Xiangfeng sighed. ”I have lived so many years in the martial world but never seen a chaotic situation like this…”
”Over one hundred and eighty forces of the first two hundred were here. Over two hundred out of the five hundred most powerful ones are here… Even those who are below two hundred came to try their luck…”
”When I went out, I could see people fighting with their weapons held tightly in hands everywhere. As I walked further, there were always dead bodies on the floor. This place will be full of dead bodies for sure…”
Bu Xiangfeng twisted his mouth and said, ”However, I didn't see any high-level cultivators. All that fight in the battles out there are all weak shrimps like you.”
He looked at Ye Xiao and said, ”You made a wise decision. People like you out there are almost all dead.”
Ye Xiao was awkward.
'He does not show me any respect at all… I haven't seen anybody disrespect their masters like this…'
'A guard…'
'Holy hell!'
Ye Xiao was annoyed, but he pretended not. In a low voice, he calmly said, ”Is anything settled?”
”Yes. Of course.” Bu Xiangfeng said, ”The House of Chaotic Storms that had recently risen to the top three most powerful forces in the Limitless Ocean had taken the full initiative this time. They took the first move and now had controlled the entire west city. They had obtained great success. The Brotherhood Alliance, which had been almost ruling the city for years hadn't reacted earlier than the House of Chaotic Storms. They were decisive, and also lucky.”
He praised and said, ”The leader of the House of Chaotic Storms is definitely the best of the best! He has such sharp and profound eyes! I am impressed!”
Ye Xiao smiled and said, ”The House of Chaotic Storms… How is it going to stir the chaotic storms in the Human Realm Upon Heavens if he doesn't keep his eyes sharp and profound?”
”However, it seems the House of Chaotic Storms isn't going for a greater future after all. They have seized such a great opportunity, but turns out only holding the west city in their hands…”
Bu Xiangfeng seemed to be disdainful. He blandly said, ”The leader is a great man, but he is not so wonderful. He is better than you, but not much. I don't think he is going to be great.”
He must be addicted to attacking Ye Xiao. When they were talking about the House of Chaotic Storms, he intentionally satirized Ye Xiao!
Ye Xiao smiled, but then angrily said, ”You know no sh*t!”
Bu Xiangfeng was furious. ”What did you just say?”
Ye Xiao frankly said, ”I said, you know no sh*t! Old Bu, this is not a virtue of yours. When you get abused, you don't ask for a second round. Don't do it again. People will know. You are my guard now. Maybe you don't care, but I don't want to be ashamed. If I knew you were like this, I wouldn't let you be my guard.”
Bu Xiangfeng stared at Ye Xiao and angrily said, ”Explain your words! Or I will not go easy on you this time! Nobody dares to humiliate me like this in my whole life!”
”Look. Here is my advice. Do not judge other people! Because you are narrow-minded. You don't know how to be profound. Twisting the truth is not a clever thing to do. I am serious.”
Ye Xiao slowly said, ”Don't be mad. You are a powerful cultivator, and you are experienced. However, you are just an itinerant cultivator after all. You never know how a leader think because you have never been one. You don't know, so you should stay humble. Don't fool yourself. It is stupid.”
”The House of Chaotic Storms has taken a smart move. If I were him, I wouldn't make a better decision than this.”
Ye Xiao thought for a while and said, ”They have done a great choice to stop right at the good point. If they took less, they got less. If they took a little more, they would be a target to all the other forces… Having the west city in their hands and watching the others fight in the city is definitely the best choice.”
”Other than that, they even set up a trap for their enemy. We will see who eventually fell into that trap soon.”
”No matter who it is, it must be fatal!”
”The ranking list in the Limitless Ocean may have to be remade after the chaos ends!”
Ye Xiao's eyes flashed in dangerous lights. He thought, 'Master Bai is a capable man indeed. It was such a casual move, yet a trap was made for the big fish to bite the hook.'
'Maybe nobody would bite the hook, but somebody will definitely approach the hook. Whoever approaches the hook will get into big trouble! What a nice move of the House of Chaotic Storms!'
'If not that I have met Master Bai and fought him a few rounds in the Land of Han-Yang, if not that Zuo Wuji explained to me how a great leader thinks, I may not be able to figure out what he really wants now.'
Bu Xiangfeng said loudly, ”I don't see anything good about that move. They could take much more places easily, yet they gave up the chance and left the territories for other people. How is that a good move? Absurd!”
Ye Xiao smiled and said, ”Truth won't lie. The Hall of Returning Nature, the Brotherhood Alliance, and the House of Chaotic Storms are the three most powerful forces in the Limitless Ocean. The fourth and fifth forces might have a chance to fight in the city, but eventually, the war belongs to the three most powerful ones.”
”Everybody knows that the House of Chaotic Storms and the Xie League are alliance… The fourth and fifth forces would never dare to mess with the House of Chaotic Storms… Because nobody wanted to get two more enemies at the same time. They could be totally broken by the joint attacks of the two powerful forces.”
”Only the Brotherhood Alliance and the Hall of Returning Nature dared to get to the House of Chaotic Storms.”
”The Brotherhood Alliance is a group of itinerant cultivators who traveled all around the world. They ever go against other forces first. If the Brotherhood Alliance and the Hall of Returning Nature fought against the House of Chaotic Storms together, the House of Chaotic Storms wouldn't grow so fast.”
”If the Brotherhood Alliance didn't care about the rise of the House of Chaotic Storms, why would they bother messing with the House of Chaotic Storms. Besides, the Brotherhood Alliance is powerful in the City of Chaos. They might be later than the House of Chaotic Storms, but they may still have the chance to be the most powerful one when the chaos ends. They wouldn't go hard on the House of Chaotic Storms too soon, because it will be stupid!”
”Apparently, the Brotherhood Alliance is not an enemy to the House of Chaotic Storms at the moment.”
”The only force that will possibly attack the House of Chaotic Storms is the Hall of Returning Nature. The Hall of Returning Nature has been trying to suppress the House of Chaotic Storms since day one. The two of them were sworn enemies.”
”The House of Chaotic Storms entered the City of Chaos and took one-fifth of the city under their control. The Hall of Returning Nature, as the most powerful force in the Limitless Ocean, will never let the House of Chaotic Storms settle easily and peacefully!”
