Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Lay out a conspiracy and let you break it

"What did Sir ask Master Zichen for?" Princess Qianyou asked.

"Master Zichen? I asked Master Zichen to make a special bow and arrow for me," Zhong Shan said.

"Oh?" Princess Qianyou was puzzled.

"Let\'s go, follow me to take a look," Zhong Shan said.

"Okay," Princess Qianyou nodded.

At this moment, Ada had finished rearranging his hair and walked over, bowing respectfully to the princess and Zhong Shan before standing beside A\'er.

Led by Zhong Shan, the four quickly arrived at another courtyard on the floating island.

Master Zichen stood in the courtyard. Seeing the princess approaching, he immediately came forward to bow respectfully. "Greetings, Princess."

"Mm," Princess Qianyou nodded.

Zhong Shan immediately said, "Master Zichen, are the bow and arrow ready?"

"Not failing the mission," Master Zichen said confidently.

Then, he went into the house and took out a box.

Zhong Shan nodded at Master Zichen, who then left immediately. After all, there were some things that couldn\'t be let known to others, it wouldn\'t be good for oneself or others if they found out.

Under everyone\'s expectant gaze, the box was opened, revealing a long bow engraved with countless runes inside, as well as two arrows with numerous protruding runes. Both the bow and arrows were the same sky blue color, part of a matched set.

"A fifth-grade bow and arrows?" Princess Qianyou squinted her eyes.

"Yes, fifth-grade bow and arrows. They can already break through the combined stage\'s gang barrier, not to mention Water Tianya\'s infant stage cultivation," Zhong Shan smiled.

"Does Sir really intend to use Water Tianya as a target for the arrow?" Princess Qianyou asked in confusion.

"Princess, take a look, what\'s the difference between these fifth-grade bow and arrows?" Zhong Shan smiled.

Hearing what Zhong Shan said, Princess Qianyou picked up the bow and arrow. After inspecting it with her divine sense for a while, her eyes widened. "This arrow..."

"Hehe, yes, one arrow is real, while the other arrow is fake. It\'s not even a fifth-grade arrow, at most it\'s a third-grade arrow, it can\'t break through Water Tianya\'s gang barrier at all. But others can\'t tell, it looks exactly the same as a normal fifth-grade arrow. Moreover, as long as Water Tianya intentionally weakens the power of the gang barrier, with his cultivation level, he can even change the trajectory of the arrow in a short period of time, shooting it harmlessly into a non-vital area of his body or blocking the arrow," Zhong Shan affirmed.

"Sir still wants Water Tianya to be shot? To create a great tragedy for Mobeili? To arouse public outrage throughout the city and increase the votes?" Princess Qianyou exclaimed in delight.

"Princess is truly brilliant, you understand immediately," Zhong Shan smiled.

"But, Mobeili\'s elder brother, will he shoot this arrow?" Princess Qianyou asked.

"He won\'t shoot, and he doesn\'t need to shoot. It will be Ada who shoots," Zhong Shan said with great confidence.

"Me?" Ada exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, I\'ve seen Ada\'s archery skills these days. It couldn\'t be better to have Ada shoot," Zhong Shan said with absolute certainty.

"But, what about Mobeili\'s elder brother?" Princess Qianyou asked.

"This bow is for Mobeili\'s elder brother," Zhong Shan said as he gently took the bow.

"The bow? What\'s special about this bow?" Princess Qianyou asked, clearly not seeing it before.

"Princess, take a closer look. See where the problem lies with this bow," Zhong Shan smiled.

Although she didn\'t notice anything special before, Zhong Shan\'s tone indicated that there must be something wrong with the bow, just like the arrows. What could be the problem?

Princess Qianyou pulled the bowstring, and instantly, the long bow was filled with blue energy, even the bowstring seemed to be gathering a large amount of energy.

There was nothing wrong, it was definitely a fifth-grade strong bow. Princess Qianyou frowned slightly and looked at Zhong Shan.

"Princess, try storing it in your storage bracelet," Zhong Shan smiled.

Hearing Zhong Shan\'s words, Princess Qianyou reached out, but the long bow remained in her hand. It didn\'t go in?

"Treasure spirit? No, this is only a fifth-grade bow, there is no treasure spirit. But why? Sir, did you implant a spirit into the bow?" Princess Qianyou asked in astonishment.

"Haha, yes, thanks to Master Zichen, a Frost Silkworm has been sealed inside this bow and put to sleep for a thousand days. Also, because the long bow is complexly refined, an array isolating divine sense has been set up around the Frost Silkworm. Even if one knows about the existence of divine sense, they won\'t care too much about that part," Zhong Shan said with great confidence.

"In this way, Mobeili\'s elder brother can only keep holding this bow in his hand and not store it in his storage bracelet, watching \'himself\' shoot Water Tianya in front of thousands of people?" Princess Qianyou exclaimed excitedly.

"Yes, over these days, in order to buy him, he has already received a lot of benefits for no reason. It\'s time to spit it out," Zhong Shan said confidently.

"But sir, how am I supposed to shoot? There are cultivators all over the city. Once the arrow is shot, all eyes will turn to the direction of the arrow, and everyone will look at me. Mobeili\'s elder brother will definitely not let me stand beside him to shoot. Even if I\'m near him, he will sense it and definitely avoid it. Won\'t I be digging my own grave with one arrow?" Ada worried.

"Hehe, Ada, rest assured, since I\'ve thought of this method, naturally, I have a way to solve it. It\'s just a matter of choosing our location. I guarantee that after you shoot, no one will look at you, everyone will look at Mobeili\'s elder brother," Zhong Shan said confidently.

"Yes, sir," Ada could only nod.

If it wasn\'t for Zhong Shan\'s powerful wisdom in these days, Ada wouldn\'t believe it. There were only cultivators in the city, not like the ordinary realm where there were people without spiritual power. How could no one look at me after I shoot an arrow? Would they just ignore me?

"Then, Qianyou will just watch the show?" Princess Qianyou smiled.

"Princess will just watch," Zhong Shan smiled—

In a hall on a floating island north of the Peerless City.

Inside the hall where Gu Lin was located, Water Mirror lightly shook his feather fan, frowning in contemplation.

"Has Water Tianya gone mad? He asked your elder brother to shoot him?" Gu Lin looked at Mobeili with surprise.

"Yes, that\'s what my elder brother said," Mobeili frowned.

Water Mirror furrowed his brows in thought, his expression tense.

"Water Mirror, what is Water Tianya thinking?" Gu Lin asked.

"On the last day, he plans to create a false impression that Mobeili is assassinating him for votes, making everyone in the city despise Mobeili and turn the tide," Water Mirror immediately understood.

"Am I supposed to assassinate him? The overall situation is already set. Any discerning person can see that I will win. Why would I need to assassinate Water Tianya? Hmph, this Water Tianya is becoming more shameless," Mobeili said.

Looking at Mobeili, Water Mirror asked, "What does Mobeili plan to do?"

"Of course, my elder brother will tell me not to pay attention to them," Mobeili said immediately.

"However, won\'t Water Tianya find someone else? Won\'t he find other key figures from your side? Once someone falsely shoots Water Tianya, at that moment, regardless of the details, everyone will know that your people tried to kill Water Tianya," Water Mirror said.

"What should we do then?" Mobeili immediately asked.

"Yes, Water Mirror, you must not lose. I\'ve been holding back from seeing Qianyou for so long just for this victory. We can\'t afford any mistakes at this critical moment," Gu Lin said immediately.

"Let your elder brother go, but pay attention to one word," Water Mirror said.

"Please speak, sir," Mobeili said respectfully.

"The word is \'delay\'. It\'s the last day. On that final day, your elder brother should do his best to follow their arrangements, but when the time comes, he absolutely must not shoot. Let them use your elder brother, and let your elder brother cooperate fully but not take any real action," Water Mirror said.

"Yes, sir. As long as we delay past that last day, the overall situation will be set, and there will be no chance for them," Mobeili smiled.

"Well, since they are doing this, you should also have your purchased individuals use arrows to falsely shoot you," Water Mirror said.

"Will they agree?" Mobeili asked doubtfully.

"They probably won\'t. Since they want to put on a show, let them go all the way. Let their people also shoot you, and unfortunately, you won\'t be able to buy any more of their people in such a short time," Water Mirror frowned.

"Sir, I\'ll go do it right away," Mobeili said.

"Wait, it\'s definitely not going to be that simple for the other side. Knowing that your elder brother won\'t shoot, why would they still send him?" Water Mirror shook his feather fan as he walked around the hall.

After a few steps, Water Mirror stopped and said, "I think Water Tianya will definitely have other conspiracies by then, but we don\'t know what they are yet. Tell your elder brother to be more vigilant and report back at any time."

"Yes," Mobeili took a deep breath, obviously still very worried.

"Also, since we can\'t find anyone, you should find someone with an absolutely unfamiliar face. Then, wait for the right opportunity to act," Water Mirror said.

"Wait for the right opportunity? What for?" Gu Lin asked.

"Find someone with an unfamiliar face, wait for the right opportunity, and replace the person whom Mobeili bought. Just in case, let that stranger falsely shoot Mobeili. We can\'t let them take all the credit," Water Mirror squinted.

"Yes, with this extra layer of insurance, even if Water Tianya plays another trick, we can handle it," Mobeili exclaimed excitedly.

"Good," Water Mirror nodded. He had a bad feeling about this.

"Let\'s go. I\'ll go with you to meet your purchased individuals and see how Qianyou is doing," Gu Lin said immediately.

"Yes," Mobeili responded.

Then, the two of them immediately left the hall, leaving Water Mirror alone in the hall to ponder.

What was that person, the one behind Princess Qianyou, really up to? Falsely shooting Water Tianya to incite public outrage was indeed a good strategy, but why did he tell me about it? This way, couldn\'t I just counteract it? What\'s the real motive behind this? Is he declaring war on me? Is he really that confident? No, something is wrong here.
