Since ancient times, the Southern Heaven Region had been a remote border region in the corner of Nine Regions. It was once known as the desert of the immortal cultivation world along with Blue River Region. There were only a few talents in the vast land, and the strength of Beast Master School could be called a local tyrant. Later, the Lingjian School appeared in Blue River Region, and the title of the desert of the immortal cultivation world was finally taken off. The Southern Heaven Region was even more unique. After the entrance to the group of immortal tombs was opened, it once became the hub of Nine Regions. In terms of prosperity and change with each passing day, even the Central Region was not as good as the Southern Heaven Region.
However, since the group of immortal tombs was fully developed ten years ago and the treasures at the bottom came out, the Southern Heaven Region had turned from prosperity to decline, like a depleted gold mine. The prosperity of Plentiful City and the City of Immortals continued habitually, but it was weak, and the gradual decline had become a foregone conclusion. Until three years ago, the large area of the group of immortal tombs in the Southern Heaven Region was designated as a controlled area overnight. Ordinary people were not allowed to enter and exit at will, and many industries in the city were forced to move out. Although the Wanxian League would give compensation, the Southern Heaven Region had completely declined. Because this change came too fast, the economic bubble of the group of immortal tombs burst ahead of time. Because of this, there were countless people who hanged themselves. The famous cliff in the Southern Heaven Region often saw people jumping off the cliff like dumplings, which could be regarded as a spectacle in Nine Regions in recent years.
Because of this serious consequence, the Wanxian League, which issued the ban, naturally had to bear the pressure of public opinion. Even if the person who issued the ban was jointly signed by Wang Lu and Hetu, it could not stop the mouth of the people in the Southern Heaven Region. For this reason, in the high-level meeting of Heavenly Sage Hall, the Elders from the Southern Heaven Region repeatedly launched an attack against the motion of Shengjing Sect and Lingjian School. There were even signs of unrest among several immortal cultivation sects in the Southern Heaven Region.
However, what the Southern Heaven Region could do was only this. Perhaps ten years ago, they could still use various resources to protect their own interests. Now, however, when the joint document of Wang Lu and Hetu was issued, this matter was the general trend, and no one could stop it. The current Wanxian League was far more powerful than ten years ago. It could command the world and no one could disobey it.
Because the current Wanxian League had mastered a super power that could shake the world.

"Bai Ze, you still won't give up?"
On the grassland, Bai Ze's lonely figure seemed especially small. Compared to ten years ago, he seemed to have aged a lot, but his eyes still contained a bright light, showing that he had not lost his sharpness. Instead, because of the ten years of tempering, he had become more reserved.
However, the woman in front of him was as beautiful as she was ten years ago. Her face was perfect and flawless.
Faced with his old friend's question, Bai Ze chuckled, "… It's not about giving up or not giving up. I'm just doing what I should do."
"What's the point of wandering aimlessly on the grassland? Bai Ze, everyone is waiting for you. "
"I know." Bai Ze's smile didn't change. "Did Lu Biechen help you find me?"
"Otherwise, how can we find you if you hide so deeply?" Xuan Mo was a little angry. "You still can't accept us joining the Wanxian League?"
"If you agree to bet, you must accept to lose. There's nothing unacceptable. We lost the Grand Competition, and the Wanxian League has been recognized and inherited by the boss. Even Tetragon is dead set on Wang Lu's side. Under such circumstances, what else can we do but join? You made the right choice and did not use your precious power for internal friction. "
This remark slightly startled Xuan Mo.
Bai Ze was right, but it was not like what Bai Ze would say. In her memory, Bai Ze was a straightforward person. When he encountered something, he would deny it first. He rarely recognized anything and rarely recognized anyone. Many people used to call him a mad dog. If it weren't for the fact that this mad dog was also the loyal dog of Sun Buping, he would have been pushed out long ago. However, now it seemed that Bai Ze had changed a lot.
Xuan Mo was silent for a while and then asked, "Do you blame Tetragon for banishing you and me?"
"How could I? At that time, in that environment, Tetragon just made the most correct choice. It can only be said that Black's calculation was too deep, which made her lose her mind. However, for Black to be able to do that, it was my responsibility. If I had the highest veto power at that time, he would not have dared to be so unscrupulous. "
"Since you don't blame Tetragon, what exactly do you want to do?"
"As I said, I'm doing what I should do … When the boss asked me to be his deputy, he needed me to check and fill in the gaps for him. His kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. Even if I die, I can't repay his kindness. But now, although I don't want to admit it, Wang Lu has received the inheritance of the boss, so I regard him as the new boss. "
Xuan Mo was even more surprised when he heard this. Bai Ze's hatred for Wang Lu and his master Wang Wu was so strong that it could be said that they could not live under the same sky. Unexpectedly, after ten years, he had become so open-minded!
"He is the successor of the boss. Even if I have hatred in my heart, I will endure it." Bai Ze explained.
"In that case, there is no reason for you not to come back."
"On the contrary … because the current Wang Lu does not need me by his side. He is the successor of the boss, but he is not the reincarnation of the boss. Do you think he needs a noisy person who keeps telling him what he did wrong? "
Xuan Mo was stunned. It was indeed hard to imagine that Wang Lu would allow others to casually question him … In a sense, Wang Lu was much more headstrong than Sun Buping.
"It's not headstrong, it's just a difference in the style of doing things. He doesn't need others to deny him, because he can do it himself. So, even if I go back now, I can't do anything. Instead, I will annoy my companions because of my habit. So, why bother? "
"But …"
Bai Ze interrupted, "Xuan Mo, what do you think of our situation now?"
Xuan Mo sternly said, "It's very serious."
"Yes, it's very serious. In my opinion, it's not surprising that the Fallen Immortals would swarm in at any time. Ten years ago, they defeated Canglan, which must have alerted the upper realm … "
"Maybe it's not that …"
"Don't lie to yourself!" Bai Ze suddenly raised his voice and said, "Think about the layout of the Fallen Immortals when we were asleep. Do you think they are a group of brave but not astute boors? Do you think they are a mob without any strategy or planning? Even the loss of a loyal dog can attract Canglan in the first place. Do you think Canglan has no back-up plan? "
"That's why we should gather our forces to deal with the crisis, isn't it?"
"So what if we gather our forces? Will the Wanxian League lack my strength now? The mass-produced giant Divine Weapon that Wang Lu recently took out can have a fighting power that is not inferior to mine when its performance is exerted to the extreme. And that batch of mass-produced giant Divine Weapon is twelve of them! What is a mere Bai Ze? "
"You can't count it like that …"
"Yes, because Wang Lu definitely has more than one card in his hand … I still remember ten years ago, when you just surrendered to the Wanxian League, you were still a bit condescending and felt that you were condescending. Now, how many of you still don't know what's good for you?"
Xuan Mo was silent. As Bai Ze said, at first, when the whole Dixian people surrendered to the Wanxian League, although they didn't say it, their hearts were indeed not convinced. Even if it was Tetragon's order, plus Wang Lu had the inheritance of Sun Buping. However, it was not so easy to make a group of Dixian people, who were at the peak of the Mahayana Realm, surrender to a group of later generations cultivators who were only half a step away from the Mahayana Realm.
However, in the next ten years, Wang Lu's means became more and more numerous, especially his own strength became stronger and stronger. With a synchronization rate of 50%, he was able to crush any cultivator in the world. Thus, the voice of dissatisfaction was much less.
Bai Ze said, "My own strength is insignificant compared to the whole, so instead of joining the whole, it's better to do something that can only be done as an individual. I believe that for Wang Lu, he is also happy to see someone who has nothing to do with him help him do something …"
Although Bai Ze's words didn't say it clearly, how could Xuan Mo not hear the true meaning behind the words?
"What the hell are you doing?"
Bai Ze said, "Think about it, after Canglan was suppressed, what could the upper realm have done in the past ten years? Although they didn't forcibly cross the passage between the two worlds again and send new Fallen Immortals, there must be other actions. For example … Have you ever thought about how much of Nine Regions has been infiltrated by them in the sixteen thousand years that we have been sleeping? How many traitors are there lurking in the shadows like Black? And in the past ten years, how much influence have they exerted on Nine Regions without us noticing? "
Hearing this, Xuan Mo was secretly shocked and said, "You already know?"
"Unfortunately, it's not clear, at least not completely." Bai Ze shook his head and said, "But there are already some clues. For example, when Canglan came ten years ago, perhaps there was another person who came with him. "
"What?"
—
"Hey, you said there was another person who came with you?"
In the Netherworld Mountain, Wang Lu was quite surprised by this answer.
"Yes, but I don't know who that person is. According to the rules, when something happened to Black, I should be the only one who came to the lower realm in an emergency. But when the passage opened, I seemed to see someone coming behind me. "
"Well, since you can say this, it means …"
"Well, that person came against the rules, so his existence will not be protected by the rules."
Wang Lu pondered for a moment and said, "In your place, are the rules a very strict thing?"
"…"
"Can't say? Then let me ask another question. In your impression, are there many people who might do things that violate the rules? "
"Not many, but I can't accurately judge his identity."
"Then what do you think is the reason why that guy came to Nine Regions secretly and didn't do anything for ten years?"
"Perhaps he was scared …"
"Because you were suppressed, so he was scared? Could it be that simple? At that time, you were besieged and annihilated because you were not in a good state. But after ten years, that person should have fully recovered, right? How could a complete Fallen Immortal be so cowardly? "
"I don't know, maybe it was just my illusion at that time …"
The conversation in the dark paused for a while, and then Wang Lu faintly said, "In any case, this information will be credited to you."
"Then …" The prisoner in the dark was suddenly full of expectation.
"From now on, the price of writing on your body will be raised to fifty thousand spirit stones per word."
"What?"
"This is to use economic means to regulate market behavior. Don't worry, your life will be much better."
"I …"
