C154 coercion

Just as Situ Qingtian and his wife were rushing to the Leng Jia's temporary encampment, Gongsun Ze Tian also quietly left the Situ Family's encampment, rushing towards the Listening Rain Pavilion's stronghold.

"Pavilion Master, Young Master, you're here!" When Qiu Canghai and Qiong Yu saw Gongsun Ze Tian had arrived, they greeted him together.

"En, is Qian Jincheng here?" Gongsun Ztian went straight to the point.

"He's here, he's in the secret room right now. We can't let him know everything about the Listening Rain Pavilion yet!" Qiu Canghai explained.

"Canghai, well done. Take me to see him! " Gongsun Ztian said.

"Pavilion Master..." Qiu Canghai stood on the spot with some hesitation.

"What's wrong? Why are you hesitating? " Gongsun Ztian turned his head and asked with a puzzled expression.

"The pavilion master wouldn't want to go see him in such a state, right?" Qiu Canghai looked Gongsun Zaitian up and down and asked.

"Mm, that's true. I'm really not used to such a small body!" Gongsun Zaitian immediately understood that sometimes he was still not used to this childlike body.

"Lead the way, I have my own ways!" Gongsun Ztian told Qiu Canghai before he directly walked into the room.

"Yes sir!" Qiu Canghai quickly stepped forward to lead the way, while Qiong Yu followed closely behind Gongsun Ze Tian.

Not long after, the three of them stopped in front of a secret room door and stood there, Qiu Canghai indicated for him to be inside.

Gongsun Ze Tian looked at Qiu Canghai, nodded his head to show that he knew, and then closed his eyes.

Without even seeing Gongsun Ztian's movements, he raised his hand. Then, the two of them realized that their surroundings were no longer the secret passage and secret chamber from before. Instead, they were surrounded by an elegant scene of pavilions and watersheds.

"Illusion Technique?" Qiong Yu was shocked, it was not that she had not seen illusionist before, there were three reasons why she was shocked. Firstly, she had never seen a illusionist as young as Gongsun Zaitian, and secondly, she also knew of illusions, most of them were directed at individuals, and it was her first time seeing so many people in the same illusion world. Thirdly, from her own observation, she realized that Gongsun Zaitian had actually not used any kind of illusion technique and was using his hand gesture instead.

Relying on this last point, let alone Qiong Yu herself, even Qiu Canghai who was on the other side gasped a few breaths of cold air. When the two of them cast their gazes in the direction of Gongsun Zaitian, he had already transformed herself into an elegant and graceful young master with a fan in hand.

"Go in, the two of you. The guests inside are probably shocked!" Gongsun Ztian jokingly said to the two of them.

"Yes ?" Yes, Pavilion Master, Young Master! " The two of them immediately regained their senses and followed Gongsun Ze Tian into the room.

Qian Jincheng was anxiously waiting in an empty secret room. Today, he had been called over to an important person who wanted to see him, he knew that his younger brother and family were in the hands of these people, and it was impossible for him to not agree, so he followed a certain person. Of course, along the way, his eyes were blindfolded, his ears were stuffed, and he even knocked unconscious to bring him here.

When Qian Jincheng woke up, he found himself in this secret room, which was filled with walls. He was very afraid. He was afraid that the other party would silence him, because he knew too many things. He still did not know the exact origin of the other party, so he could not help but feel even more terrified.

While he was still in a trance, he suddenly discovered a change in his surroundings. It was no longer the secret chamber from before, but instead, an elegant and beautiful scenery of the garden. This change was even more unheard-of. All his life, he had been dealing with money and paperwork, and had never been involved with the Jianghu.

Although Qian Jincheng had heard of the illusionist and the fighting masters before, this was the first time she felt the magic of an illusion technique. Everything around him was real. There was the sound of running water in the pavilion, the coolness of a breeze, and even the fragrance of grass and vegetation.

"Master Qian, is this environment suitable for conversation?" A voice sounded out from behind Qian Jincheng. When he turned around, he saw three people standing behind him, two men and one woman.

Qian Jincheng looked at the handsome, elegant, white gowned man standing in front of him who was fanning himself non-stop with a fan in his hand. He knew that the words that he had said just now were from this young man.

"Who are you people? Why me and my family? " Qian Jincheng forced himself to remain calm and asked.

"Please take a seat Master Qian. Don't worry, the reason you came here today was because I wanted to chat with you for a bit! Is the Master Qian here to reward you? " Gongsun Ztian smiled and said in a comforting manner.

Qian Jincheng did not say anything, directly choosing a chair and sitting down.

"I don't know who you are, nor do I know why you've come to find me. I've already told you everything I know. I think you can let my family go now, right?" The moment he sat down, Qian Jincheng started talking, but his tone still revealed a sense of nervousness.

"Master Qian, to tell you the truth, we are from Ninth Prince, we came here today to deal with your master, of course we need your cooperation." Gongsun Zaitian had already reached the acme level of lying, and his face did not turn red on the scene at all.

"What can I do? I'm just a young Grand Master!" Qian Jincheng said with a cold face, as he replied unhappily.

"No, no, Master Qian is belittling himself, you have a lot of uses for it, don't take our intelligence agents as fools, I think you won't take me as a fool either, right?" Gongsun Ze Tian still had a smile on his face. He did not put the other party's attitude in his eyes at all. It was as if he was not the target of those cold words.

"This ?" Just tell me, how are you going to release my family? " Qian Jincheng knew that the number of chips that he could use to negotiate was too little, and he himself did not know what the other party wanted to do. Thus, he planned to use this as a bargaining chip after finding out the other party's bottom line.

"Very simple. As long as you cooperate with us, I can guarantee that your family will be safe and sound!" How could Gongsun Ztian not know of his thoughts? Even after saying that sentence, he still did not change the topic to the matter of what he wanted to do.

"I don't believe you!" Qian Jincheng looked at the smiling Gongsun Ze Tian and said snappily.

"I don't need you to believe that I need you to carry it out. If you don't do as I say, you and your family will be finished right now, and if you obediently listen to my orders, then you and your family will be fine. Although this is a bit of a gamble, I still want you to think carefully, if you help me make up my mind, then I won't make any changes to my decision." Gongsun Zaitian was not annoyed, he patiently analyzed the situation for him.

"This ?" "Well, what do you need me to do?" Qian Jincheng hesitated, after thinking about it, he felt that what he was facing was indeed a type of gambling, and the stakes were his and his family's lives, but did he have a choice in all of this?

"My subordinates will tell you exactly what to do. Just listen to his arrangements. But let me remind you, do you think that your master will be able to make a comeback? Or do you still have any need to live after he leaves Fengyang with all his savings? " Just now, Qian Jincheng had experienced a process of 'coercion', and it had basically crushed his psychological defenses. Now, Gongsun Ze Tian was preparing to carry out the 'enticement' task, he wanted to completely destroy the other party's heart, and only then would he be able to do the things for him in a short period of time.

"Err ?" Qian Jincheng was not a fool. He had been a Master for so many years, he was definitely not a fool. To be honest, he was already on the verge of death, and at the moment, he was already on the verge of death. If he were to clean up all of Wu Daode's filth, then the only thing that awaited him would be death.

"You know too many things, so many that only if you die, someone will feel at ease. Why don't you change your character now?" Gongsun Zaitian's fox tail finally rose up, and he threw an olive branch to Qian Jincheng.

"..."

"After this is done, you may get more. If you follow someone who has a better future, you will be able to better utilize your talents. I know you. You are a very talented person. Because of your little brother, you lost your chance to climb the tree branch. Now, you have another chance. Why not fight for it? " I think Grand Master, you should know that wealth comes from danger, right? " Like a wolf grandma luring Little Red Riding Hood, Gongsun Ze Tian continued to speak in a seductive tone.

In fact, no one knew that Gongsun Zaitian's success in doing so was not a coincidence, nor was it because of how attractive his words were. That was because Gongsun Zaitian had used the Phantom Skills's special extension ability, Charm Control. Under the effects of this illusion, Gongsun Ze Tian's speech and movements became even more charming. Moreover, during their conversation, Gongsun Ze Tian had even used a curse type Phantom Skills, constantly giving his opponent mental hints.

Only with the help of the dual Phantom Skills s and the guidance of words, would Qian Jincheng be able to be brought into their camp successfully. After all, this Master Qian was an essential existence in many key points in the overall plan designed by Gongsun Ze Tian.

"Fine, I promise you. Tell me, what do you want me to do? But afterwards, I need you to promise me that you will let my family go! " Qian Jincheng clenched his teeth and agreed, but he was still worried about his family. Although he knew that it was useless not to mention it, he still had to say something.

"Deal!" After Gongsun Ze Tian stood up, he didn't even look at Qian Jincheng, and only left behind two words.

Qian Jincheng didn't know that his decision today had changed his entire life. It had allowed him to leap from a Master of a County Governor to become an influential figure in the Listening Rain Pavilion, highly regarded by Gongsun Zaitian. Of course, this decision of his was heavily supported by Qiu Canghai, and could be considered sharing the burden that should have been on Qiu Canghai's shoulders, as he was being drawn out from the complex accounts.

"I'll leave it to you!" Gongsun Ze Tian said to Qiu Canghai.

"Yes sir!" Qiu Canghai wore a mask, his expression could not be seen, and only bowed as he replied.

"Let's go!" Gongsun Zaitian took Qiong Yu and left, leaving behind only Qiu Canghai and Qian Jincheng.

Gongsun Ze Tian did not care about how Qiu Canghai explained things to Qian Jincheng. There was no need to take over his subordinate's work, there was no need for that, he was a person too, and he understood the principle of 'there's no doubt in servants', and he did not want to be like Zhuge Kongming, who would do everything by himself. This was a type of behavior where he could not believe his subordinate's actions.

Gongsun Ze Tian brought Qiong Yu and left the secret room. When he saw her hesitating to speak, he knew that she must have something to say to him. However, this was not the place they agreed upon. Gongsun Zaitian decided to just head outside.
