The Rebirth of the Immortal Emperor: I am the Lord

Chapter 544 Plan - Sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight

In Tianyuan Immortal Palace, Palace Master Nangong Tingyu Jing sat on the throne. The two pieces of information in his hands made him frown, his heart was filled with complex emotions, and his eyes were uncertain. When his eyes touched the news spread by Lei Zhen, the former general of the Dafeng Empire, claiming that Ye Tian was the culprit who killed the royal family and civil and military officials, he smiled coldly and revealed a sneer.

For an old man like Nangong Tingyu, Lei Zhen's clumsy tricks are simply not worth mentioning. He has experienced countless conspiracies and tricks, and can see through the strangeness of this at a glance. Nangong Tingyu is not a fool, he knows the key to the whole thing.

Since Ye Tian has the ability to destroy the entire royal power of the Dafeng Empire, if he really wants to replace it, why doesn't he just change the dynasty and let the Yanhuang Empire smoothly enter the imperial city? Why would he leave Lei Zhen alone and let him become the new emperor? Is it just because of the millions of troops in Lei Zhen's hands? This is obviously untenable. Nangong Tingyu knows in his heart that since Ye Tian can destroy the millions of demons' troops, how can he be afraid of Lei Zhen's little force?

Therefore, Nangong Tingyu only sneered at Lei Zhen's behavior of devouring his master, because he knew that without absolute power as support, Lei Zhen would not be able to stay as emperor for long. And not to mention Ye Tian, ​​even the Li family, it is not really possible to destroy it. Although the Li family is now destroyed on the surface, the Li family has been operating in the Northern Wilderness for thousands of years, and its foundation is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

As the backer of the Northern Wilderness Dafeng Empire, Nangong Tingyu was very clear about the development and background of the Li family, the royal family of the Dafeng Empire. Apart from the others, the few immortals hidden in the royal cultivation holy land and the small world of the Li family and the group of national defenders were not something Lei Zhen could contend with. However, because the group of national defenders could only be dispatched with the secret order of the current emperor, the reason why Lei Zhen succeeded in seizing the throne was just a loophole in Nangong Tingyu's view.

If the Li family's few immortals knew what was happening outside, Lei Zhen would definitely die without a burial place, unless he had a bigger and stronger backer. But at present, Nangong Tingyu knew all the major forces in the entire Northern Wilderness, so who could be Lei Zhen's backer?

Is it Wuji Palace? Or Kunqian Palace? In Nangong Tingyu's opinion, neither is very likely. Could it be Ye Tian? As soon as this thought came to mind, Nangong Tingyu shook his head and threw it away. He felt that Ye Tian was even less likely. Because if Ye Tian was Lei Zhen's backer, then Ye Tian would not have to go to the trouble of letting Lei Zhen become emperor. And Lei Zhen could not have used Ye Tian's name as the murderer to build momentum for himself and take the opportunity to rise to power.

Besides, even if we put aside the power of the Gale Empire in the Northern Wilderness, the Li family has a quota for a young disciple every three years to directly enter the Tianyuan Palace, the power behind the Tianyuan Palace in the Central Sky City, to practice. Although the people of the Li family who entered the Tianyuan Palace in the Central Sky City did not develop particularly well, they were more than enough to deal with people like Lei Zhen.

If it weren't for the fierce fighting in Central Sky City, all the major forces would have no time to spare and couldn't get away, not to mention Lei Zhen's seizure of the throne, in his heart, even Ye Tian wouldn't have taken the opportunity to establish his own empire. The demons might not dare to come to the human race so recklessly to cause chaos. And they couldn't be so passive.

As the spokesperson of the Tianyuan Palace of the Central Sky City in the Northern Wilderness and the backer of the Dafeng Empire, Nangong Tingyu not only knows the background of the Dafeng Empire very well, but also knows a lot about the Wuji Palace and Kunqian Palace, which are also the spokespersons of the two major sects in the Central Sky City.

In Nangong Tingyu's opinion, the internal struggle of the imperial family of the Dafeng Empire had turned into such an outcome, either because those old men in the Dafeng Empire were really only thinking about cultivation and breakthrough, and they didn't know what was happening outside, but Nangong Tingyu thought this possibility was very small. Another possibility was that the Li family had other plans or conspiracies, and they abandoned the car to save the king, so they watched the struggle outside and did nothing.

Nangong Tingyu believes that the Li family is very likely to belong to the second category, because the chaos in the Northern Wilderness and even the entire fairy world has become increasingly serious. It seems difficult for any force to escape from this chaotic world, and it is almost impossible to stay out of it. Although the Li family's approach has caused huge losses in the current situation, in the long run, the Li family can take this opportunity to stay out of the matter and hide completely to avoid this chaotic world. On the contrary, Lei Zhen will be directly involved in the vortex of this struggle after he stands in the foreground, facing all future enemies against the Dafeng Empire.

Thinking of this, Nangong Tingyu couldn't help but admire the courage of the Li family. He believed that if the Li family of the Dafeng Empire was really as he analyzed, then it would be extremely wise and terrifying, because such a decision was not something that everyone could easily make, and not everyone could foresee the future trend of the world.

Lei Zhen jumped out at this time to seize the world of the Li family. Although he seemed to have temporarily succeeded, Nangong Tingyu knew that in the long run, Lei Zhen's rule did not seem to be stable. He suspected that Lei Zhen might just be a pawn in the Li family's careful plan, a shield pushed to the front. However, Nangong Tingyu still had doubts in his heart: Is it really worth it for the Li family to do this? Can they really stay out of it and not get involved in this chaotic world?

Moreover, regardless of what the Li family had planned and conspired, as a sect standing behind the Dafeng Empire, Nangong Tingyu was angry and puzzled by the Li family's act of cutting off the source of funds. Nangong Tingyu believed that although they usually did not interfere with the management of the empire, the Li family's act of cutting off the source of funds was tantamount to betrayal for the Tianyuan Immortal Palace. Because once the Li family withdrew from the historical stage of the Dafeng Empire, they avoided the risk of fighting in troubled times, but their Tianyuan Immortal Palace would inevitably be pushed to the forefront. They not only had to face the struggle between Kunqian Immortal Palace and Wuji Palace, but also had to deal with the various threats brought by the chaos of the Dafeng Empire.

Nangong Tingyu knew that as the sect behind the Dafeng Empire, they had the responsibility to maintain the stability and peace of the empire. Now, Lei Zhen had seized the world of the Dafeng Empire without the permission of the Tianyuan Immortal Palace. This was undoubtedly a great provocation to Nangong Tingyu and the entire Tianyuan Immortal Palace. Nangong Tingyu realized that they had to speak out and make their position clear, otherwise, how would others view them? Would they think that they were weak and could be bullied, unable to protect their own interests and dignity?

What's more, all along, most of the resources of Tianyuan Immortal Palace came from the Dafeng Empire under its control. Without the resource guarantee provided by the Dafeng Empire every year, how would Tianyuan Immortal Palace survive and consolidate its dominant position in the Northern Wilderness alongside Kunqian Immortal Palace and Wuji Palace?

Looking at the information in his hand, after some analysis, Nangong Tingyu's eyes revealed a trace of disdain and sneer. At this moment, Nangong Tingyu's eyes appeared a little fierce, and the information in his hand seemed to be a symbol of his determination. He knew that it was impossible for the Li family to stay out of it, and Lei Zhen's desire to leave him Tianyuan Immortal Palace and dominate the Dafeng Empire alone was even more a pipe dream.

In the Gale Empire, the status of Tianyuan Immortal Palace cannot be shaken by anyone. Their existence is the cornerstone of the stability of the empire. It is impossible for the Li family to stay out of it, and it is even more impossible for Lei Zhen to dominate the Gale Empire without his Tianyuan Immortal Palace. In the Gale Empire, no force can override his Tianyuan Immortal Palace, and no one can ignore the existence of his Tianyuan Immortal Palace. The Li family can't do it, and Lei Zhen can't do it either. Those who want to play tricks in front of him, he, Nangong Tingyu, will let them know that they are not qualified.

However, Nangong Tingyu also understood that now was not the time to intervene immediately. He smiled coldly, and already had his own plan in mind. Since the Li family wanted to be a coward, let them get what they wanted. As for Lei Zhen, since he wanted to dominate the Dafeng Empire, let him be proud for a while, and Tianyuan Immortal Palace would just pretend that he knew nothing.

He really wanted to see whether the Dafeng Empire, without the support of his Tianyuan Immortal Palace, could withstand the attacks of the Luofeng Empire and the Tongqian Empire, as well as the encroachment of the emerging force of the Yanhuang Empire.

Moreover, it was just right that his Tianyuan Immortal Palace could also sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and understand the strength of various forces in the struggle. At the same time, his Tianyuan Immortal Palace could take this opportunity to concentrate its strength to deal with Wuji Palace and Kunqian Immortal Palace.

In Nangong Tingyu's mind, Wuji Palace and Kunqian Palace were the biggest threats to his Tianyuan Palace. As long as the troubles of these two major sects were solved, the Empire and Lei Zhen were just some clowns and were not worth worrying about. The only thing that made him a little unpredictable was Ye Tian.
