Chapter 187 Politics requires compromise!

As soon as Lin Qingxiong died, the saint's true identity "Hassan Sabbah" was exposed. Everyone was shocked and stopped fighting involuntarily.

Even the three Persian envoys had strange expressions on their faces, in disbelief.

Only then did they remember that the Saint was not outstanding among the many children of the Old Man in the Mountain. It was indeed ten years ago that the Saint was suddenly trained vigorously by the Old Man in the Mountain and became the second-in-command of the Assassin sect.

And as a saint, she entered the Persian Ming Cult and took control of the Persian Ming Cult.

His status, power and martial arts skills continued to rise, and he seemed to be able to compete with the old man in the mountains.

Now that I think about it, the second-generation mountain old man Hassan Sabbah, the saint, is a bit scary.

Over the years, the saint has eliminated dissidents and even killed one of the old man's sons in the name of the old man.

People in the world only thought that the old man in the mountains was cold-blooded and heartless, and that he killed his son just because he was an alcoholic. Now it seems that it was the saint who was eliminating the threat.

To this day, the entire Assassin sect, the entire Persian Mingjiao, if the old man in the mountain is excluded, is indeed the one-man show of the saint.

The three envoys and Persians including Didana were a little bit unbelieving.

The Assassins have become increasingly prosperous in the last ten years, reaching a point where they are flourishing and booming.

The assassins he sent out were so powerful that they forced the surrounding small countries to pay tribute to the Assassins.

The power of the old man in the mountain also reached its peak.

All of this was actually supported by the Saint?
How could she, a woman, actually do this?
At this time, Hassan Sabbah no longer concealed herself. The inner energy in her body was surging. Her black veil swayed with the inner energy. The bells on her ankles made sounds for the first time, ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling, as elegant as the steps of a Persian cat.

There was no longer a trace of tenderness in her eyes. Instead, they flashed with a cold light, filled with wildness and indifference, as ruthless as a fleeting glance from the god of death.

The king of assassination in the world, the king of assassins, the grandmaster of the Assassin sect, the creator of the Holy Fire Order martial arts, and the number one master in Persia, Hassan Sabbah is no longer pretending and is going to show his cards!

"I have killed the apostate Lin Qingxiong. Now, as the Holy Maiden of the Ming Cult, I will temporarily take over the position of the leader. If anyone disagrees, please stand up!" Hassan Sabbah looked around and asked coldly.

"I don't accept it! Maybe you are an old man in the mountains, but you openly rebelled, killed the leader, and acted perversely, which is outrageous!" Ren Beiming stepped forward, "Do you think that as long as there are masters in this world, they can decide the overall situation? We, the Five Elements Flag, do not agree!"

As he spoke, Ren Beiming waved his flag and shouted, "Flag bearers, the Five Elements Flags have already ambushed outside the hall. If we don't move now, when will we move? The Five Elements Flags will attack together to avenge Master Lin!"

"Revenge for Master Lin!"

The rest of the Ming Cult flag bearers waved their flags, and their subordinates gave orders one after another. Outside the Hall of Light, countless footsteps approached in an instant.

One hundred disciples of the Giant Wood Flag rushed into the Hall of Light, and the remaining Five Elements Flags also armed themselves fully and surrounded the Hall of Light.

Various catapults, water-jet vehicles, flaming oil, bows and crossbows, javelins, crossbows, and iron nets were all arranged.

Two thousand five hundred people marched out with the Five Elements Flags together, making a deafening noise that shocked everyone.

Although this Hall of Light is very large, it is surrounded by the Five Elements Flags of 2,500 people, so there is no escape. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you will find it difficult to resist all kinds of attacks.

At all times, the Five Elements Flag is always the core of the Ming Cult and its most steadfast defender.

When the six major sects besieged Bright Summit in later generations, Yang Xiao and the Five Scattered People were having an internal fight. It was the Five Elements Flag that faced the six major sects head-on, resulting in heavy casualties.

Now, Ming Cult leader Lin Qingxiong has been killed, and many independent sect leaders have been shaken, but the Five Elements Flag remains unyielding. Led by Ren Beiming, they are ready to win by numbers.

"Left Envoy of Light, what are you still hesitating about? This Hassan Sabbah killed the leader, and everyone saw it! Such behavior is an unforgivable apostasy!" Ren Beiming said to Yin Qi, "Quickly call the disciples of the four sects of Heaven, Earth, Wind and Thunder to avenge the leader together!"

Yin Qi was hesitating when he heard Hassan Sabbah smile and say, "No one knows the Ming Cult better than me. In fact, I am the true saint of the Ming Cult. No one is more familiar with the Ming Cult's scriptures, doctrines, rules and regulations, and institutional levels than me. I have long known that the strength of your Five Elements Flag should not be underestimated. Do you think I am not prepared?"

As he spoke, Hassan Sabbah issued a voice in Persian that sounded like an order. The voice was deafening and penetrated the entire Hall of Light.

Rumble!
I saw that under the throne of the leader above the Hall of Light, the floor was suddenly lifted up, revealing a huge hole, which turned out to be a very deep and large tunnel. One after another, Persians in black robes poured out of the tunnel. These black-robed Persians, all wearing silver scimitars, totaled more than a hundred people.

"What? It's the Black Robe Assassins?" Huiyue was shocked.

The Black Robe Assassins are the most elite team of killers among the Assassins. Everyone in them has received rigorous training and learned the strange sword techniques created for them by the old man in the mountains.

One alone might not be powerful enough, but working as a team of three is enough to give an expert a headache.

Their swordsmanship is actually a simplified version of the Holy Fire Token martial arts, and they are always effective in carrying out general assassination missions.

The old man in the mountains organized them into small groups of three, large groups of nine, and teams of twenty-seven.

Four teams form a regiment, which is a killer regiment of 108 people.

It is also the main force of the Assassins.

Hassan Sabbah actually brought such power to Middle-earth and concealed it from the three Persian envoys. It can be seen that what she was plotting was not just the Great Shift of the Universe, but the entire Ming Cult.

The three messengers finally understood why Hassan Sabbah always compared himself to the Prophet Muhammad and wanted to accomplish the same great cause as the Prophet Muhammad.

She had great ambitions. She intended to truly annex the Mingjiao in Middle-earth, combining the three forces of the Mingjiao in Middle-earth, the Mingjiao in Persia, and the Assassins, and then prepare to establish a country and conquer the entire Arabian region.

Even more than that, the three envoys seemed to have heard Hassan Sabbah say that he wanted to capture Constantinople and create an unprecedented great cause.

The three envoys thought that Hassan Sabbah was just talking nonsense, but they didn't expect that she was serious and took action.

It seems that the Great Shift of the Universe is just a bonus, and the Ming Cult is what she wants.

But as a Persian, can she really get what she wants?

"Greetings to our Lord, the Grand Master!" After the group of black-robed assassins half-knelt and saluted Hassan Sabbah, they gathered around her and spontaneously formed a formation.

Obviously well-trained and well prepared.

Ren Beiming was shocked and asked, "When did such a large tunnel appear on Guangmingding?"

"Of course I sent people to dig it slowly." Hassan Sabbah said, "I dug a huge tunnel in the entire Bright Summit. My real power is hidden in it, hidden under your feet."

Murong Fu thought: Wow, it turns out that you were the one who dug the secret passage in Guangmingding. You are quite good at civil engineering, and you are a good material for plastering!
"You are indeed ambitious, harboring evil intentions, plotting evil, and have made preparations long ago." Ren Beiming said coldly, "But with just these 100 people, can you really deal with so many brothers in our Ming Cult?"

"There are more than just these one hundred people!" Hassan Sabbah said, "What if I say that I have buried ten thousand kilograms of gunpowder in the tunnel? As long as I give the order and ignite these ten thousand kilograms of gunpowder, you can all come with me to see the Ming Zun! Our Ming Cult will be completely wiped out!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Hassan Sabah added: "However, it seems that I, Master Murong, and Zen Master Lingxiu do not need to see Ming Zun. Only the martial arts of the three of us can allow us to escape and survive the explosion of gunpowder."

The only top masters recognized by Hassan Sabbah were Murong Fu, Zen Master Lingxiu, and herself.

With their body movements and martial arts skills, they can indeed sense trouble before it comes and escape instantly.

"You" Ren Beiming wanted to question whether it was fake, but you can't gamble on such things.

Moreover, even if Hassan Sabbah had not buried the gunpowder and had fought a fierce battle with the other side, the Ming Cult, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, would most likely have never recovered.

In the martial arts world, loyalty is all that is required, but in politics, compromise is required.

"Hassan, what do you want to do?" Ren Beiming asked, "You are ambitious and have come all the way to the Ming Cult. Aren't you here to perish together with us?"
