Zhao Hai stood outside the conference hall with a calm expression. It has been two months since he last came to the conference hall. Although Zhao Hai wasn't very polite to Mu Yao, Mu Yao didn't blame Zhao Hai. On the contrary, he approved of Zhao Hai's words.
A month ago, Mu Yao and Shen Wei officially handed over their positions. Shen Wei became the Hundred Treasures Realm's leader for the next ten years. Mu Yao and the others also went into seclusion.
Zhao Hai didn't go into seclusion. He also participated in the handover ceremony and met with Shen Wei. Zhao Hai didn't expect Shen Wei to be a talented person. He looked cultured and refined with an extraordinary temperament. However, there was an arrogant air on his face that made people feel uncomfortable.
After the handover ceremony, Zhao Hai returned to the planet. However, he was still very lenient about what happened in the headquarters. Shen Wei was very good at handling matters. He didn't overrule Mu Yao's actions. This was because Mu Yao's actions were for the good of the Hundred Treasures Realm. If Shen Wei overruled Mu Yao's actions, then the other people in the Hundred Treasures Realm wouldn't do it. However, Shen Wei still transferred people who had a good relationship with the Mu Faction to a more leisurely place. This was equivalent to minimizing the influence of the Mu Faction in the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Zhao Hai didn't object to this. A new Emperor brings his own subordinates. Naturally, a new Emperor would arrange people in important places. Only then would Zhao Hai feel relieved.
Moreover, Shen Wei didn't make things difficult for the people who were transferred away. The Hundred Treasures Realm was now in a stable state. And with the Mu Faction's patience, this matter passed.
The reason why Zhao Hai came here today was to explore the sea! Last time, Zhao Hai came to thank Mu Yao and said that he was going to explore the sea. But at that time, they didn't talk in the conference hall but in Mu Yao's cave residence. Because of this, no one knew that Zhao Hai was going to explore the sea.
There were still ten days before the expedition. The Hundred Treasures Realm had already decided on the candidate for this expedition. And as Mu Yao expected, it was Zhao Hai!
Zhao Hai knew that when Shen Wei decided to send Zhao Hai to explore the sea, there were a lot of people who opposed it. However, Shen Wei had a very firm attitude and insisted on sending Zhao Hai. At the same time, Mu Yao didn't make an appearance. In the end, Zhao Hai was chosen.
Zhao Hai knew that Shen Wei was going to make a move against him. But he didn't think much about it. He already knew about this, so he wasn't worried at all.
Zhao Hai also knew why Mu Yao didn't make a move. It wasn't that Mu Yao didn't want to make a move. It was just that Shen Wei hadn't done anything excessive yet. Because of this, Mu Yao decided to wait for Shen Wei to make a move.
Zhao Hai knew that Mu Yao already listened to what he said to Mu Yao. Mu Yao wanted to destroy Shen Wei's arrogance, but he needed an opportunity. An opportunity to make Shen Wei unable to make a comeback.
Although Mu Yao didn't want to fight with Shen Wei for the stability of the Hundred Treasures Realm, Shen Wei had become more and more arrogant in recent years. Although Mu Yao was patient, Shen Wei's actions against Zhao Hai made Mu Yao unable to bear it. Today, Shen Wei dared to make a move against Zhao Hai. Does that mean that he would make a move against Mu Yu tomorrow? With this thought in mind, Mu Yao prepared to deal with Shen Wei.
Although Mu Yao didn't want to bother with Shen Wei, he wasn't a kind person. Mu Yao knew that if you don't kill a tiger, it would only harm you. Therefore, he needed an opportunity to kill Shen Wei and make him unable to make a comeback.
If it wasn't for Zhao Hai's words, then Mu Yao would have gone against Shen Wei when Shen Wei ordered Zhao Hai to explore the sea. But if he did, then he wouldn't be able to kill Shen Wei. After talking to Zhao Hai that day, Mu Yao knew that Zhao Hai already had the intention to explore the sea. Therefore, he didn't worry about Zhao Hai anymore. Instead, he just waited for an opportunity.
The entire headquarters was under Zhao Hai's surveillance. Naturally, Zhao Hai knew what Mu Yao was planning to do. He didn't blame Mu Yao. On the contrary, he agreed with Mu Yao's approach. An opponent like Shen Wei must be killed, otherwise there would be no end of trouble.
Because Zhao Hai was going to explore the sea, Shen Wei sent a jade sword message to summon Zhao Hai to the headquarters. In the past, Zhao Hai treated the conference hall like it was his own home. He didn't need to be notified and could directly enter. Today, he stood outside the hall for a quarter of an hour, but he still wasn't called in.
Zhao Hai wasn't anxious nor angry. He already knew that Shen Wei would make things difficult for him. Therefore, he just stood outside the hall with a calm expression. Not only was this not shameful, it would also make the Hundred Treasures Realm's impression of Shen Wei worse.
Everyone in the Hundred Treasures Realm knew what kind of person Zhao Hai was. They also knew how much he had done for the Hundred Treasures Realm. To be honest, Zhao Hai's popularity in the Hundred Treasures Realm wasn't any lower than Mu Yu's. In this case, Mu Yao gave Zhao Hai the convenience of entering the headquarters without notifying anyone. Nobody objected to this.
But Shen Wei actually stood outside Zhao Hai's door for a quarter of an hour. This made the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm unable to continue watching.
Although everyone in the Hundred Treasures Realm knew that Zhao Hai was from the Mu Faction, they also knew that strictly speaking, Zhao Hai couldn't be considered a member of the Mu Faction. First, he didn't study under Mu Yao. Second, everything he obtained was obtained through his own merits. Third, although he had a good relationship with Mu Yu and Tang Jie, he didn't have any enmity with the Shen Faction. If Shen Wei has enmity with the Mu Faction, then he should look for trouble with the Mu Faction. Why would he look for trouble with Zhao Hai?
Zhao Hai could already hear the dissatisfaction of the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm. He stood there calmly with his eyes half closed. People who didn't know would think that he was asleep.
Actually, Zhao Hai was communicating with Cai 'er and the others. At this time, Cai' er and the others were organizing the people to enter the Hell King's Ship. After all, Zhao Hai was taking them with him.
Now that everyone was gone, only robots were left behind on the planet. These robots were mainly responsible for taking care of the medicine fields. The grain and vegetable fields were also stopped and replaced with medicine.
Since Zhao Hai and the others were leaving, the grain and vegetable fields were naturally planted. There was no need to rush to harvest the herbs. The older the herbs, the better. This time, they were all prepared for the long journey.
Moreover, the tamed beasts on the planet have been killed and stored in the Space. These tamed beasts were originally used to eat meat. If they were left alone for a while, then all the plants on the planet would be eaten by these tamed beasts.
A year ago, Zhao Hai also took Julie in. Although Julie was still wild, she was able to distinguish right from wrong. She was more like a human now.
While Zhao Hai was paying attention to the changes on the planet, a voice was suddenly heard from the conference hall, "Zhao Hai is summoned!" Zhao Hai opened his eyes and then slowly walked towards the conference hall.
Upon arriving at the conference hall, Zhao Hai saw Shen Wei sitting on the main seat. Shen Wei had a righteous expression on his face. Sitting on the main seat, he gave off the aura of an upright official.
Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards Shen Wei and said, "Zhao Hai has seen Elder Shen and the other Elders. I don't know why the Elders have summoned Zhao Hai."
Shen Wei looked at Zhao Hai and coldly snorted as he said, "Is this your first day in the Hundred Treasures Realm? How come you don't even know how to salute? Forget it, this Elder won't bother with you. In ten days, the 50-year expedition will begin. This Elder has decided to give this opportunity to you. Do you have any objections? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Zhao Hai has no objections. I'll listen to the Elder's arrangement."
Zhao Hai's reply caused Shen Wei to stare. He thought that Zhao Hai would refuse. He didn't expect Zhao Hai to agree so quickly. Shen Wei looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Exploring the sea is a big matter for the Hundred Treasures Realm. If you don't show up, then this Elder will punish you heavily."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Yes, Zhao Hai will remember this. I'll be there on time. Elder Shen can rest assured."
This made Shen Wei want to find an excuse to put Zhao Hai down, but he couldn't help but feel aggrieved. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "It's good that you know. This is the gathering place for the explorers. There's still time, so don't be late." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, this is the gathering place for the explorers. Don't be late, go down." Zhao Hai nodded.
Zhao Hai nodded. Then he took the jade slip that Shen Wei gave him and slowly left the conference hall. As soon as Zhao Hai left, Shen Wei frowned and said to an Immortal Expert beside him, "Third Brother, what do you think is going on with Zhao Hai? Why is he so easy to talk to? Does he not know about the dangers of the expedition? "
The Immortal Expert beside him also frowned and said, "It's impossible for him to not know. Although we don't have much contact with Zhao Hai, we have heard a lot of rumors about him. Zhao Hai is a scheming person. How could he not know about the expedition? And even if he doesn't know, how could the Mu Faction not know about it? Mu Yao's retreat just in time for the expedition. It's impossible for Mu Yao to not tell Zhao Hai about it. This matter is indeed strange. "
Shen Wei knit his brows and said, "I wanted to use Zhao Hai's participation in the expedition to lure Mu Yao out. Then I'll use the name of righteousness to deal with him. I didn't expect Zhao Hai to accept this mission. Things have become difficult." Shen Wei frowned and said, "
The Immortal Expert beside him said, "It's not a big deal. If Zhao Hai accepts the mission, then he'll go. If he doesn't go, then we'll deal with him. I don't believe that Mu Yao would just sit back and watch. Zhao Hai has contributed a lot to the Mu Faction. If Mu Yao doesn't do anything, then who would dare follow the Mu Faction in the future?"
Shen Wei nodded, then he coldly snorted and said, "This time, I'll make the Mu Faction eat a big loss."
An Immortal Expert sitting at the end of the table looked at Shen Wei and said, "Brother Shen, I don't object to you dealing with the Mu Faction. But it's best if you don't make a move on Zhao Hai. Although he has contributed a lot to the Mu Faction, those contributions were also for the Hundred Treasures Realm. Everyone in the realm can see that. If we deal with Zhao Hai, then it would certainly arouse disgust. This would be very disadvantageous for us."
Shen Wei looked at the Immortal Expert and coldly snorted and said, "He's just someone who joined the Hundred Treasures Realm. What's so great about him? He's just someone from the Mu Faction trying to put gold on his face. So what if we deal with him?"
The Immortal Expert looked at Shen Wei and didn't say anything. He knew that Shen Wei's mind had been clouded by anger. When Mu Yao was in charge of the Hundred Treasures Realm, the Fireweavers and the Giant Spirit Realm attacked. At that time, they also participated in the war. But since they were dealing with Immortal Experts, they didn't participate in the war. Moreover, besides him, the others hadn't seen Zhao Hai's performance in the conference hall. Because of this, they had this idea. However, Mu Yao knew that Zhao Hai's contribution was real. It wasn't something that the Mu Faction gave Zhao Hai to win him over. To be honest, Mu Yao's reward for Zhao Hai was still too little. Dealing with someone like Zhao Hai was already an unpopular move. Moreover, Mu Yao had gone too far. He was afraid that Mu Yao would give Zhao Hai a hard time in the future.
However, he also knew that although Shen Wei looked cultured and refined, he was actually headstrong and self-opinionated. He wouldn't listen to anyone. Even if he said anything, it would be useless.
After Zhao Hai left the conference hall, he looked at the hall for a moment before turning around and heading towards the transmission formation. Then he directly returned to the planet. When he arrived at the planet, Zhao Hai took out a jade slip and scanned it with his spiritual force. The jade slip recorded the time and location of the expedition. It was very detailed. However, the location was quite far from the Hundred Treasures Realm's headquarters. If Zhao Hai wanted to get there in ten days, then he would have to leave now.
This expedition wasn't just a matter for the Hundred Treasures Realm. Instead, it was a joint effort of several high-grade realms. Each high-grade realm would send a young expert to participate in this expedition. Regardless of whether they had grudges or not, they had to work together during the expedition. Otherwise, they would be heavily punished when they return.
Zhao Hai wanted to participate in the expedition. Although he could use transmission formations to get there, there were no transmission formations for the last part of the expedition. He would have to fly there. Ten days was a bit tight.
Moreover, Zhao Hai also learned from Mu Yu and the others that the high-grade realms would send an Immortal Expert to escort the person to the command post. But it was clear that Shen Wei didn't intend to send anyone to escort Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai nodded.
The reason why they sent someone to escort Zhao Hai was because the journey to the command location wasn't very peaceful. Although the high-grade realms sent people, they had to leave at the same time. If they didn't leave at the same time, then they would lose the qualification to explore the sea. If there were any benefits in the sea in the future, then they wouldn't be able to participate in the expedition.
In the past, there were realms that deliberately made their people arrive late. This way, they wouldn't be able to participate in the expedition. However, they didn't expect to be pressured by the high-grade realms. In the end, they were forced to kill the young experts who didn't participate in the expedition.
It can be said that the expedition had now become a competition between the high-grade realms.
