Chapter 134 The Grand Plan Succeeds
Where is the person who gave you the copper coins?!
Inside the Li family's mine, Daoist Tiankun stared at Li Lan with a dark and sinister look in his eyes, continuing to interrogate him!
Li Lan smiled faintly and said, "It's not just you who wants to find him, I want to find him too, countless people in this city want to find him, but unfortunately, no one knows where that senior has gone now."
The others nodded in agreement.
During this time, countless gamblers searched everywhere, hoping to buy a copper coin from the old man who had broken the sky, but to no avail.
"What did he say to you?"
Daoist Tiankun did not relax, but continued to ask questions.
He seemed to care deeply about the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets.
Li Lan's heart stirred, and he immediately said, "He didn't say anything, but... I asked that senior a question back then."
"What's the problem?" Daoist Tiankun hurriedly asked!
Li Lan smiled inwardly. Originally, he had prepared a prophecy, which he would release slowly... He never expected that today, Daoist Tiankun would help him establish the identity of the Old Man of Broken Heaven, and give him the opportunity to say it in a natural way!
He immediately said, "I once asked that senior, now that the gray fog has descended, what is the way to victory or defeat?"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room tensed up and paid close attention!
As the gray fog descended, the world was gripped by fear. The pronouncements of the Celestial Secrets lineage were of paramount importance to the people.
Cao Yueshu and Mu Jianxian were both extremely nervous.
Li Daoling, Fairy Lanxia, Zhu Donglai, and others all felt inexplicably uneasy.
Li Lan then said, word by word, "That senior said that if we advocate peace, then everything will be bleak; if we advocate war... perhaps amidst the chaos, there will be a few individuals with great karma who can carve out a path for themselves!"
These were the exact words of the Old Man Who Broke the Sky!
The entire audience was shocked and in an uproar!
"What? Does the Old Man of Broken Sky mean he wants to advocate for war?"
"How come this is completely contrary to Master Tiankun's prophecy?"
"Yes, their predictions are completely opposite. Which one should we listen to?"
The crowd discussed among themselves, all puzzled and confused.
"Hehe, young friend, did you really ask that person that question? Did that person really answer like that?"
At this moment, the powerful Li Cangwu suddenly spoke in a cold voice, and he said with a sinister smile, "And who told you to ask him this question?"
Upon hearing this, Li Daoling, Zhu Donglai, and others also spoke up.
"Yes, the identity of that old man who cuts the sky has not been confirmed. What he said is all just your side of the story!"
"You brat, you're spouting nonsense!"
"This is most likely orchestrated by someone; it's a conspiracy, and we must be vigilant!"
They all attacked each other, vehemently denying everything!
If the world truly believes what Li Lan said, then the situation they have painstakingly created will be completely destroyed.
Moreover, they were all experienced and prudent leaders, and from their perspective, the appearance of Zhan Yiyuan seemed to be meticulously planned step by step!
It's all too coincidental.
No wonder Li Cangwu pressed for answers like that; it seemed as if a mastermind was orchestrating a plan to break the peace faction's scheme!
Step by step, meticulously designed!
Even Cao Yueshu and Mu Jianxian were somewhat surprised at this moment.
They were just secretly discussing how to use the Old Man of Broken Sky to write an article, but unexpectedly, the article was already finished in the blink of an eye!
Moreover, it all happened so naturally and logically... it's simply brilliant!
"Which expert is secretly helping us?"
Both of them had the same question in their minds: in their view, Li Lan... should just be a pawn pushed to the forefront.
There must be a mastermind behind this!
Faced with doubts, Li Lan declared loudly, "Every word I have said is true. If even half of it is false, may I be destroyed by the collapse of the Great Dao and never be reborn!"
He directly made a vow!
Upon seeing this, everyone in the room tensed up.
Those who cultivate the Tao, if they have lofty aspirations, who would dare to casually make a vow of the Tao? Even if an ant curses the heavens and the earth and speaks nonsense, it doesn't matter, but on the path of the Tao, every word and deed is mysteriously felt and will surely be repaid in the future!
Li Lan's statement is 70-80% credible!
"I was right there at the time, and it really happened!"
At this moment, someone in the crowd spoke up!
--When Li Lan bought copper coins for the old man Duan Tian, there were some onlookers around.
"That's right, I was there too. Zhan Yiyuan did ask that question, and that old liar... ugh, I mean, the senior answered the same way! I even mocked Zhan Yiyuan for being stupid back then, but now that I think about it, I was the stupid one, damn it!"
"Sigh, me too. If only I had followed Zhan Yiyuan and bought a copper coin back then, wouldn't my life have been different? Looking back now, I realize that on that peaceful afternoon, I actually missed the crossroads of fate!"
Several people spoke up, instantly confirming what Li Lan had said once again.
Credibility... 100%!
"Looks like it can't be fake!"
"A wise man roams the mortal world, seeking those with whom he has a predestined connection. In a casual remark, he has already revealed the future trends. This is something we must not overlook!"
"We must be cautious; even if we achieve peace... we might not truly survive!"
Many people couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
In fact, in everyone's mind, the Old Man of Heaven's predictions were more credible than the prophecies of True Man Tiankun...
This is mainly because the image of the Old Man of Broken Sky was the result of Li Lan's careful creation!
The world witnessed Li Lan, a person who had no knowledge of the Origin Technique, defeat various masters with just copper coins, which was too legendary.
As a result, the cultivation level and identity of the Old Man of Broken Sky naturally became more mysterious and powerful.
As for Master Tiankun, although no one doubts his identity, he lacks any "manifestation" or "clear evidence" in this regard!
"Nonsense, utter nonsense!"
Li Daoling and the others were furious. He pointed at Li Lan and gritted his teeth, saying, "You have wolfish ambitions! This is clearly a conspiracy to lead the people of the world down a path of no return! You deserve to die!"
He truly intended to kill Li Lan!
Now, public opinion seems to have completely reversed, and the pro-war faction is even gaining the upper hand...
The key point is that the evidence is now irrefutable: Li Lan does indeed possess the Heavenly Secret Coins. He dares to make a Dao oath, and there are even witnesses to corroborate this!
They simply couldn't question it, couldn't overturn it.
All the previous hard work has been torn open!
"You still want to kill me to silence me?"
Upon hearing this, Li Lan feigned surprise and said, "I was merely relaying the words of that expert, and you want to kill me? The Li family is truly domineering... But now so many people have heard it, can your Li family kill everyone?"
The surrounding crowd immediately followed suit!
"Mrs. Li has gone too far!"
"This young friend merely spoke a few truths. If they don't suit your tastes, are you going to silence him?"
"That's too domineering!"
Li Lan's single sentence almost made the Li family the target of public criticism!
Li Daoling's expression immediately changed drastically, and he said, "That's not what I meant..."
At this moment, Li Cangwu spoke in a deep voice, "Enough!"
His immense power, after he used his Daoist strength, clearly reached everyone's ears, and the noisy crowd finally quieted down.
"The most urgent task is to find that old man who cuts the sky,"
Li Cangwu calmly said, "Between True Man Tiankun and Old Man Duantian, who truly possesses the true lineage of Heavenly Secrets and whose prophecy is more credible, only a direct confrontation between the two can further clarify the matter!"
"So, young friend, you really don't know the whereabouts of that senior?"
Everyone thought his statement made sense.
Li Lan shook her head: "I really don't know."
Master Tiankun suddenly said, "That's simple. Give me half of the Heavenly Secret Copper Coin you have, and a drop of your essence blood, and I'll go find him!"
He was determined to get the Old Man of Broken Sky!
But Li Lan sneered and said, "Are you talking in your sleep?!"
The others also shook their heads. Master Tiankun's request was indeed excessive and unrealistic. What kind of treasure was the Heavenly Mystery Coin? How could it be asked for so easily? Moreover, Li Lan's own essence blood was something that no one else could touch, especially for a cultivator!
"You claim to be a true disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Sect, but what, you can't even find your fellow disciples or elders?"
Li Lan continued speaking leisurely.
Master Tiankun roared, "What kind of senior fellow disciple is this!"
"That old man who cuts the sky claims to be the thirty-third generation successor. You are the thirty-fourth generation, so you are definitely a generation below him. What, are you trying to betray your master and ancestors?"
Li Lan continued speaking.
Everyone in the room burst into laughter instantly.
"enough!"
Upon seeing this, Li Cangwu frowned, a look of displeasure flashing across his old face!
He could see that Zhan Yiyuan was so meticulous in his thinking and so resourceful that he was simply beyond the ability of Tiankun Zhenren, Li Daoling and the others to deal with him!
This person's cultivation level may not be strong, but his shrewdness is enough to make Tiankun Zhenren, Li Daoling and others look up to him. If this continues, he may make a fool of himself and damage Tiankun Zhenren's prestige. They will be in an even more passive position in the future!
"Let's leave it at that for today. There will be another battle tomorrow to decide who owns the Primordial Divine Source."
Li Cangwu said, "The Li family will not keep you any longer—"
Cao Yueshu, Mu Jianxian, and the others were all beaming with joy and relief. They immediately cupped their hands in farewell.
"Young friend Zhan, I will escort you back to the Sun Moon Sect!"
Cao Yueshu spoke to Li Lan, and the more he looked at Li Lan, the more pleasing she seemed to him!
Li Lan not only helped them write an article that completely crushed the Li family's propaganda offensive, but also, just now, when facing senior masters of extraordinary status such as Tiankun Zhenren and Li Daoling, he was able to handle them with ease, even forcing them to be helpless and make a fool of themselves with his words...
Such a mindset is truly extraordinary and unconventional!
If the other party were an old-fashioned person who had experienced many ups and downs, that would be one thing, but it is a young person like this. How could he have developed such mental and physical abilities?
"Actually, this person isn't bad at all. Perhaps he's only slightly weaker than Tu Tianlong in terms of aptitude?"
He couldn't help but compare Zhan Yiyuan to Tu Tianlong.
But after thinking about it, he secretly shook his head. Xiao Xiao should choose Tu Tianlong. After all, that guy's talent was truly unparalleled throughout history.
If Zhan Yiyuan's wisdom could be combined with Tu Tianlong's talent, then he would truly be the perfect son-in-law of the Sun Moon Cult...
But there's no such thing as a perfect good thing in the world!
"The Sword Sect will send experts to protect the Sun Moon Sect, so please rest assured, young friend."
And the Wooden Sword Immortal spoke in front of everyone.
Everyone was startled, realizing the meaning of those words.
Deterrence!
Today, Li Lan has completely offended the pro-peace faction. By standing on their opposite side, some people might take risks and do despicable things. Therefore, the Sword Sect and the Sun Moon Sect must provide Li Lan with protection!
"Thank you, senior!"
Li Lan thanked him and prepared to leave, but suddenly said, "By the way, Senior He, I agree to sell this strange bone to you for 15,000 catties of immortal essence. Please accept it, and the immortal essence will be delivered to the Sun and Moon Pavilion later."
