Chapter 33: Plans Can’t Keep Up With Changes
The World Association was a newly formed association that was led by Xiong Ba. The World Association rose to fame as its leader, Xiong Ba, was a master of martial arts, and he challenged many martial arts experts in the world.
However, compared to Wushuang City, the World Association was still a little inferior.
This was because there was once a person called Dugu Jian in Wushuang City. The people in the martial arts world didn’t call him by this name, but called him Sword Sage Dugu instead.
Sword Sage Dugu had been famous for a long time. Back then, he was publicly acknowledged as the number one expert in the world. He was invincible with the Holy Spirit Sword Technique. Although Xiong Ba was not much younger than Sword Sage Dugu, he was still considered a junior and was not comparable with him.
Subsequently, Sword Sage Dugu retired to Sword Hut and no longer held the position of City Lord. He let his younger brother, Dugu Yifang, inherit the position.
Now that Dugu Yifang had actually sent a letter to Xiong Ba to discuss a collaboration, when Xiong Ba received the letter, he was suspicious.
After reading the letter, Xiong Ba asked curiously, “Wushuang City has been in power for decades and is even more famous than the World Association. The two sects have never interacted much, so why would Dugu Yifang suddenly want to collaborate with the World Association?”
A pale-faced man wearing a white robe and a white hat said to Xiong Ba, “Sect Leader, your martial arts are unparalleled and you are famous. Of course, this Dugu Yifang is afraid of your martial arts. He is capitulating in advance, in the hope that the World Association will let him off in the future.”
This pale-faced man was Wen Chouchou, Chief of Staff of the World Association. He was also a bootlicker. However, what he said to suck up was ridiculous and illogical.
Xiong Ba didn’t blame Wen Chouchou. Of course, he knew that what Wen Chouchou said was 70% untrue, but he still enjoyed the flattery. Moreover, Wen Chouchou was quite capable. He managed the World Association’s affairs well, and Xiong Ba still required the services of someone like him.
“Since that is the case, go and prepare to give a warm welcome to these people from Wushuang City.” Xiong Ba instructed.
“Yes, Sect Master.” Wen Chouchou said respectfully.
Very soon after, the people of Wushuang City were welcomed into the World Association. In front of Xiong Ba, Wen Chouchou treated Dugu Yifang like he was worthless. However, in front of Dugu Yifang, he became respectful and deferential. He extended warm hospitality to the people of Wushuang City, ensuring that they were well fed, and made sure not to miss out on any one person.
This ability to subserviently serve others was Wen Chouchou’s specialty. He did it so well that one couldn’t detect any trace of hypocrisy.
On the surface, Dugu Yifang and Shi Wuzun sat together, eating and drinking to their heart’s content. In their hearts, they were plotting and biding their time. According to the plan, Dugu Yifang would send out fireworks signals from the World Association that night. Then, the giant Tang Lin would bring the expert Nie Renwang directly into the World Association.
When Xiong Ba was lured out, Dugu Yifang would launch a sneak attack, and both parties would attack Xiong Ba from two sides and kill him.
Of course, this was only a plan on the surface. In actual fact, Dugu Yifang would not make a move at all. He would only watch Xiong Ba and Tang Lin battle each other. When both sides have sustained injuries, he would then swoop in to clean up the mess. No matter which side won, he would reap the benefits.
If Tang Lin was powerful enough to kill Xiong Ba without suffering any injuries, Dugu Yifang still had a backup plan — Sword Sage Dugu, who had been hiding nearby. He would invite this brother, who was the top in the world, to kill the Kua Fu the Giant and then grab all the Blood Bodhi elixirs.
With these Blood Bodhi elixirs, Wushuang City would definitely become the number one martial arts force in the world. His Dugu family would be the top masters in the world for generations to come.
Even Shi Wuzun didn’t know about the second plan. This loyal servant thought that Dugu Yifang was sincere in collaborating with Tang Lin.
However, this wasn’t a major issue. When the time came, Shi Wuzun could only listen to Dugu Yifang’s orders. Therefore, it didn’t matter if he knew or not.
Dugu Yifang’s wishful thinking was so pleasing that even the wine in his cup felt much more fragrant.
“As long as we wait until tonight…”
Dugu Yifang muttered to himself in his tipsy state. However, before he could finish his sentence, a loud rumbling sound was heard, followed by a terrifying earthquake. The people in the banquet hall were immediately thrown off balance. The tables and chairs were askew, and wine and food were scattered all over the floor.
“What’s going on?” Dugu Yifang asked in shock.
How could Wen Chouchou possibly know? He hurriedly comforted by saying, “City Lord Dugu, calm down. Perhaps it’s just an earth dragon turning over. Let me go out and take a look.”
There was no way Dugu Yifang would stay put. He led everyone from Wushuang City out of the banquet hall.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Dugu Yifang saw a huge shadow appear at the Three-Point drill ground not far away.
The Three-point drill ground was the largest square in the World Association. It was usually used for martial arts performances or for parade inspections. However, at this moment, there was a giant that was dozens of feet tall in the square. He was holding a strange weapon and killing indiscriminately.
“What’s going on?! Didn’t we agree on tonight?!” Dugu Yifang grabbed Shi Wuzun and asked in a hurry.
How could Shi Wuzun possibly answer? He wasn’t an earworm and was not privy to Tang Lin’s thoughts. To Tang Lin, he was not even as big as a worm.
According to the basic laws of the Great Cosmos, 99% of plans related to transmigrators could not keep up with changes.
Initially, Tang Lin really wanted to follow Dugu Yifang’s plan — hide far away and only rush over when he saw the signal. Tang Lin would then wipe out Xiong Ba and the World Association in one fell swoop. However, Dugu Yifang was not aware that Xiong Ba had met Tang Lin before.
After the battle at the Soaring Cloud Cave, Xiong Ba had been scared off by the giant Tang Lin. After returning to the World Association, how could Xiong Ba let this matter rest? He had snatched Nie Renwang’s wife and even blatantly made a cuckold of him. Nie Renwang’s wife finally jumped to her death from the Great Leshan Buddha.
How could Nie Renwang spare him when he had such a deep feud?
Knowing that there was such an enemy out there, how could Xiong Ba not be on guard? Hence, the people from the World Association had set up surveillance in the area and had been monitoring the movements.
As for Tang Lin, although he had deliberately chosen a treacherous route to avoid being seen, he was already detected by the spies of the World Association when he was still 30 miles away.
Although Tang Lin killed a few World Association spies with his salt gun, there were too simply many outposts and hidden sentries. In the end, there were still some that got away.
Tang Lin didn’t plan to chase after these World Association spies in this complicated terrain. It would be as difficult as trying to step on cockroaches in a grassland. Hence, he simply quickened his pace and rushed over. He wanted to catch Xiong Ba off guard before the spies reported on him.
Hence, before Dugu Yifang’s signal could be received, Tang Lin had already barged into the World Association.
Tang Lin’ crushed the arch of the gateway with one foot, and the Three-Point drill ground turned into gravel. White salt particles flew everywhere, turning the members of the World Association into minced meat.
The mediocre members of the World Association were no match for Tang Lin. They suffered heavy casualties within a minute. At this moment, Xiong Ba couldn’t just sit back and watch anymore. He rushed out from the Number One Tower of the World Association and came face to face with Tang Lin once more.
