Chapter 1254: Covet My Body (IV)
“How are you unable to accomplish this?” Li Hao frowned. “You have a lot of ideas! You always have a solution for everything. See how we instantly took the City of Supernaturals! Remember how you easily turned situations around through manipulating public discourse and the people’s hearts?
“When the Forbidden Sea awoke, you spun that as a gift from me. You can turn black into white and into black again. Gan Wuliang is hated by the Silver Moon martial masters, but you’re on good terms with both sides. The Silver Moon martial masters think you’re decent and Gan Wuliang leans towards you. You’re more suited to be the hand in the shadows than he is!”
“......” Was this a compliment or an insult? Lin Hongyu really didn’t know what to say.
“This is a very important matter and intricately tied to our future!” Li Hao said solemnly. “Everything I’m doing today is to ensure we keep strong foes locked in place for one month. I need them to lose their control over me! I’m going to make big changes during this month, enough to reverse the course of events!
“It’s not just them, but the Red Dust exalted emperor as well who won’t be in a mood to keep an eye on anyone this month. The heavenly will has gone into hiding to bide its time. We can say that this is the cleanest the world has been since the dawn of time!”
He only had one month!
The heavenly will might reappear after a month. Li Daoheng, the Moon God, Zheng Yu, Ying Hongyue, and the Red Moon exalted emperor might show themselves as well after that.
Li Hao wasn’t joking. Everything he was doing was in preparation for a showdown a month later. He needed to fully remake himself during this period of time, so that everyone would lose their power over and understanding of him. If anyone treated him as the Li Hao of old, they would be in for a difficult time.
As for tapping Lin Hongyu for the task... he had no choice in the matter. Just as the young man had said, she was the one with the greatest authority over the world apart from him.
Cold sweat beaded Lin Hongyu’s forehead. She took a long moment before saying, “My lord, this will be very hard! There is very little time left and you just said that the room for error is very low. This puts me in difficult straits!”
She set her jaw with determination and said after a while, “My lord, I have a request of my own if you want me to do all this. I hope you agree!”
“Speak of it!”
