Lin Tingzhi pondered for a moment before he turned around and suggested to Chen Yu, "First Deacon, the envoys from Yuan Xia don't seem to be in a hurry, so there's no need for us to rush into an answer. We can let Fellow Daoist Yan and Fellow Daoist Zhu pass on some information to make them think that we can't agree on this matter. This way, we can delay it."
Wei Tingzhi agreed, "Lin Tingzhi's suggestion is reasonable, and this is exactly what Yuan Xia wants to see. We can also fake internal strife and make them think that we're attacking each other. This way, they won't easily make a move or be in a hurry to see the result. Instead, they'll wait for us to exhaust ourselves before coming to clean up the mess. "
Chen Yu looked at Deacon Wu and said, "Deacon Wu, what do you think of this matter after talking with the envoys from Yuan Xia?"
Wu Qingxu said in a deep voice, "Although we can delay it, we're still in a passive position. I think that Tianxia shouldn't be so conservative. Since Yuan Xia sent their envoys to me, I might as well request to go to Yuan Xia to take a look. This way, I can better understand Yuan Xia and prepare for the future battle."
Chen Yu nodded, and then he looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Zhang Tingzhi, what do you think?"
Zhang Yu said, "I believe that both internal and external matters need to be dealt with at the same time. Wu Tingzhi's words are supported by me, which means that the current situation is temporarily covered up. However, this also proves that Yuan Xia has sufficient strength, which is why they don't care about many things. Even if they make a mistake, they can still bear the consequences.
If Yuan Xia's foundation is strong enough, even if they misjudged me today, they only need to attack me once or twice to react. Therefore, this isn't the key to victory. Delaying is necessary. I need to use this time to strengthen myself, but at the same time, I need to understand Yuan Xia's power. "
Daoist Feng also said, "Deacons, Yuan Xia has been showing me how rich and powerful they are, intending to make me collapse without a fight. They can't wait for everyone to know about their foundation. If I suggest sending people to Yuan Xia, they definitely won't refuse. Instead, they'll open up their doors."
The other court enforcers had seen the conversation earlier and knew that what he said made sense.
Chen Yu asked for the opinions of the Court Attendants in the surroundings, and there were no objections. So, he quickly made a decision and said, "Lin Tingzhi, Wei Tingzhi. The two of you will be in charge of the internal affairs, and the other deacons will cooperate as much as possible. "
Lin and Wei, two men bowed and saluted. All of the Tingzhi nodded in agreement.
Chen Yu continued. "Zhang Ting Zhi, Wu Ting Zhi, both of you stay behind for now. The other Zhi's can leave first."
Everyone bowed and retreated from the altar.
Chen Yu said to Wu Tingzhi and Zhang Yu, "I also think that this idea is feasible, and it must be done as soon as possible. Although Fellow Daoist Xun is in Yuanxia and can warn us, we are in enemy territory and will be limited everywhere. It's impossible for him to constantly send messages here, and we can't rely on Fellow Daoist Xun for everything. Therefore, we need to go to Yuanxia and understand it in detail. This way, we can compare the enemy with us. However, do the two of you have any opinions on who should be sent? "
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment and said, "In Yu's opinion, although we're only going to investigate and not to display our strength, Yuanxia won't take us seriously if we don't achieve much. There are many things that we might not be able to see through."
Wu Qingxu said, "Zhang Tingzhi is right. These people respect the cultivators of the upper echelons, but they don't care about the cultivators who aren't strong enough. Only those who are strong enough can understand what's going on."
Zhang Yu said, "There are very few cultivators who have achieved good results, and we shouldn't entrust them to this matter so easily. In Yu's opinion, we should wait for the external body to be completed before using it to carry the Primordial Spirit Qi. This way, we can avoid unnecessary risks, and Yuanxia won't have any other ideas. "
Wu Qingxu also agreed that they needed to be vigilant against Yuanxia.
Although Yuanxia was easy to talk to, everything was built on the goal of destroying Tianxia. Therefore, the person sent to Yuanxia couldn't be sent with his real body. Although Yuanxia could let you go, she might not let you come back. Therefore, using an external body as a substitute was the most convenient and could dispel many people's thoughts.
Chen Yu said, "Zhang Ting Zhi, what's the situation with Zhangsun Tingzhi?"
Zhang Yu said, "Yu's already asked Zhangsun Tingzhi, and he already has some ideas. If we only want to refine an external body that can be used by us, we can do it now."
Although the external body wasn't considered a success yet, it was under the premise that everyone could use it. However, if it was only used as a carrier for a few people, it wouldn't be so troublesome. Even if there were no external cultivation methods or skills, Tianxia could still refine it with his own strength. Moreover, if the external body carried the Primordial Spirit or the visualization diagram, it could still display its original strength.
Chen Yu called out, "Ming Zhou."
Daoist Ming Zhou appeared at the side and said, "What can I do for you, Head Deacon?"
Chen Yu said, "Order Zhangsun Tingzhi to refine three or more external bodies as soon as possible. He can ask for anything he needs from Xuanting. I don't care about other things, but it must be done quickly."
Daoist Ming Zhou said solemnly, "Ming Zhou understands."
At the same time, Daoist Qu walked to the top of the giant ship. There was a formation that had just risen. In fact, it was only a part of the flying ship. This was because the flying ship itself was a combination of a formation and a magic tool. Just as Lin Tingzhi predicted, there wasn't much difference between the two in Yuanxia.
There were three cultivators gathered around the formation. At this moment, they were channeling their magic power in an attempt to lure the previous envoy, Jiang Wu, back.
Although Daoist Qu heard Bi Yu and Zhu Wujiang's report, he didn't believe it completely. Since the two said that Jiang Wu was killed by the three cultivators before he tried to join Yuanxia, then he probably didn't receive any help from Tianxia. This also meant that this matter had nothing to do with Tianxia, so he should be able to be recalled.
If this person was recalled, then he could confirm the truth of the matter through him. If what Bi Yu and Zhu Wujiang said was true, then he could continue to trust them. If what they said was false, then all the information about Tianxia would have to be overturned.
He asked the three cultivators, "How is it?"
One of the cultivators said, "Shang Zhen, we're trying. However, there seems to be an external evil in this world that keeps disturbing our Qi. If the flying ship can reach Tianxia's side, we might be able to get rid of this disturbance."
Daoist Qu said, "This method won't work. If we go to Tianxia's side, then we'll be under Tianxia's surveillance. Any action will be exposed to them. You guys have to do your best."
The three cultivators had no choice but to accept the order. They gritted their teeth and persevered.
In fact, if Daoist Qu was personally involved in this matter, he might be able to sense that Jiang Wu's death wasn't in the void, but in the inner layer of Tianxia. Then, he might be able to see some suspicious points.
But how could he personally go out to attract a low-level cultivator?
Even if he was willing, he would be ridiculed by the people of Yuanxia. Ever since he joined Yuanxia, he was very mindful of this. He wouldn't overstep the line of seniority.
At the same time, Zhang Yu sensed that someone in the void was trying to summon Daoist Jiang. He excused himself from Chen Yu and Wu Qingxu. Then, with a shift of his mind, he went to another spiritual altar.
A formation was set up here. Tianxia was also summoning people.
This was arranged long ago. It was to prevent Yuanxia from summoning Jiang Wu.
Not only that, Zhong and Chong were also in charge of concealing the heavenly secrets to prevent Yuanxia from spying on them. Because this was done when Yuanxia's envoy entered the void, coupled with the invasion of evil from the outer layer of the void, Daoist Qu's side hadn't discovered anything strange.
On Tianxia's side, the person in charge of the summoning was Daoist You, who had already obtained excellent merit.
Zhang Yu walked over and saluted, "Daoist You, I just sensed that Yuanxia seemed to be summoning Jiang Wu. Is there any hindrance here?"
Daoist You stood up and returned the salute, "Xuanting's arrangement is stable. Jiang Wu won't be able to disturb my actions."
Zhang Yu asked, "Daoist You, how long do you need to complete this matter?"
Daoist You said, "With Xuanting's full support and the Qi of the Clear Sky, it will only take three to five months. If Jiang Wu is willing to return, it will be even faster. "
Zhang Yu said with certainty, "That person will definitely think of a way to return."
Due to the tribulation avoidance pill, Jiang Wu was definitely in a hurry to return to the world. Even if he guessed that Tianxia was summoning him, he wouldn't refuse. Only by returning to the world could he consider other things.
In the blink of an eye, another two months passed. Feng Yu and Zhu Wujiang came to the giant ship of Yuanxia again. This time, they reported to Mu Huan 'an and Daoist Qu about the internal situation of Tianxia.
"Daoist Mu, Daoist Qu, we can't know the specific details of Tianxia now. We only know that there are differing opinions and there seems to be a huge dispute …"
Feng Yu lowered his head and reported the information given to him by Tianxia.
Daoist Qu looked at them and said, "You've been in Tianxia for a long time. Do you know how many Daoist cultivators have plucked outstanding achievements in Tianxia?"
Feng Yu was a little embarrassed, "The most accomplished cultivator I've seen so far is only a Void Projection cultivator. Higher level Daoist cultivators don't see us at all. We've sent letters several times but were rejected …"
Daoist Qu said coldly, "You're really incompetent."
Feng Yu and Zhu Wujiang hurriedly bowed and apologized.
Mu Huan 'an smiled and said, "Alright, don't make things difficult for them. This isn't their problem in the first place. It's already good that they can reach this step."
His understanding of the two of them did not come from his tolerance, but from his contempt for them. He didn't think that the two could know everything about the upper level of Tianxia based on their cultivation and ability. Otherwise, why would he add Jiang Wu when he sent out the diplomatic mission?
Feng Yu and Zhu Wujiang hurriedly said, "Thank you for your understanding, Daoist Mu."
Mu Huan 'an just smiled.
Daoist Qu called and said, "Han Chen."
"Han Chen is here." A Daoist cultivator came out from the side and saluted solemnly, "Daoist Qu, what orders do you have?"
Daoist Qu said, "Since these two can't do anything, you go and do it for them." He looked at Feng Yu and Zhu Wujiang and said, "You two, you have to listen to Daoist Han's orders. Is that clear?"
