After a day had passed, Liao Chang was brought by a cultivator to visit Zhang Yu.
He now knew about the agreement between Zhang Yu and the Yuan Shang Hall. However, as a person born from the World Dao, although he was only a branch family, he instinctively looked down on cultivators from the outside world. He did not take Zhang Yu's emissary of Tianxia to heart, so before he came, he was somewhat indifferent.
However, when he arrived in front of Zhang Yu and saw the latter's gaze, his heart trembled, and he felt a vast pressure directly into his mind. He unconsciously bowed and lowered his attitude, saying humbly, "Greetings, Zhang Shangzhen."
Cultivator Guo stood at the side without saying anything.
Zhang Yu asked, "You are Liao Chang?"
Liao Chang said, "Yes, I am."
Zhang Yu said, "Zhenren Liao, you are also a person with Dao skills. Although your cultivation is only ordinary, because you are a cultivator of Yuanxia, when you come to Tianxia, your every move will inevitably be watched. Therefore, you need to follow by my side, and you are not allowed to act recklessly.
If you have any arrangements that you are not sure about, then come and ask me first. Otherwise, if there is a mistake, even if I can protect you, you will have to explain it to the Yuan Shang Hall's ministers. "
Liao Chang glanced at the cultivator vaguely, seeing that he did not have any reaction, he said, "Yes, yes, I am willing to listen to all of your orders."
Zhang Yu said, "Then Zhenren Liao, go back and prepare first. You can come back another day."
Liao Chang bowed, and Cultivator Guo also bowed, saying, "Then I will take my leave first." After saying that, he took Liao Chang and walked out.
Zhang Yu watched them leave. He stood up and walked two steps in the hall. After a while, he reached into his sleeve and took out the golden seal. The light in his heart turned, and in an instant, a bright light spilled out, and in the light, Sheng Zheng's blurry figure was reflected inside.
He said, "Sheng Shangzhen, have you prepared the things I need?"
As soon as Sheng Zheng raised his hand, the light behind him condensed into a list of names, with lines of words below. He said, "Principal Emissary Zhang, this is the list of all the Yuanxia cultivators that you want to go with you to Tianxia."
Although there were quite a few people from the World Path who had been stuffed into Tianxia's diplomatic mission this time, His Highness was still a minister, so it was easy to find out the origins of these people. After all, these people did not appear out of nowhere, they all had roots.
After Zhang Yu glanced at them, he memorized everyone's detailed descriptions. He said, "Just now, a person was sent to me from the palace. His name is Liao Chang. I wonder if Zhenren Sheng knows him?"
Sheng Zheng fell silent. He seemed to be communicating with someone. After a while, he said, "Yes, this person is from the Zhou Shi Dao, but this is only a side branch."
"A person from the Zhou Shi Dao?"
Zhang Yu thought. It was not good for the Upper Highness to use people from the Lower Highness, so it was normal to use a side branch. Every clan leader and elder who went to the Upper Highness to serve as a minister did not go alone. When they left, they would bring a group of people with them. The World Path also supported them to bring their trusted aides with them.
But according to his understanding, the Zhou Shi Dao was very special among the Thirty-three World Paths. Whether it was the Upper Highness or the Lower Highness, they had a relatively harmonious relationship with the World Path, but were somewhat estranged from the other World Paths.
This situation was very strange. Generally speaking, when both sides had interests involved, they would be closer. Only then could they cover up the original conflict between the Upper Highness and the World Path.
He had previously suspected that this Han Zhou Shidao might be the one he was thinking of.
But he was not sure. But there was someone here who could answer, so he asked directly, "Is there anything special about this Zhou Shi Dao?"
Sheng Zheng snorted and said meaningfully, "Envoy Zhang is sharp. If you did not ask, I would not tell you. It is not that I do not want to say, but because of the oath. But since you have asked, I will reveal a little. The World Path of the Hanzhou Shi Dao is unique and has always been of great use to the Upper Highness, so it is closely related. If I were Envoy Zhang, I would get rid of that Liao Chang as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen events. "
Zhang Yu nodded. Sheng Zheng did not seem to say anything, but the information she revealed was enough. For example, her words were bound by the oath, so it must be a matter of great importance.
What matter was so important that even the Upper Highness had to take it so seriously?
Combined with his previous conjectures, he was almost certain of his own judgment.
He said, "Thank you for the reminder. I know what to do."
Sheng Zheng said, "It is good that Envoy Zhang knows what to do. I just do not want our cooperation to fail before it has even begun. That's right. "He laughed and said," If Envoy Zhang feels that these people are trouble, we can help you get rid of them on the way. "
Zhang Yu said, "That won't be necessary."
The World Path had just sent people to the diplomatic mission. It would be too deliberate to get rid of them in the blink of an eye, especially Liao Chang. Even if they got rid of him, as long as they did not openly fall out, the Upper Highness would find a way to send people over. There was no real meaning.
He said again, "I will be transferring back to Tianxia in a few days. When will the people you have arranged arrive?"
Sheng Zheng said, "Envoy Zhang, among the members of the diplomatic mission who are still outside, are there any trusted aides? If it is convenient, I can send them there. "
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, then said a secret code. He said, "You can send them to this Zhenren Ying. When the time comes, you can say this secret code."
Sheng Zheng said, "I will remember it. I will arrange it in a while. After Envoy Zhang sets off, if you want to contact me, you can go through the person we have arranged. "
Zhang Yu said, "That will be it." After he finished talking with Sheng Zheng, the light that surrounded him retracted. The golden seal also returned to its original appearance.
He thought for a moment. Tianxia's true appearance must be concealed. No matter what, he could not let his guard down. However, Tianxia had been making preparations ever since he set out on a diplomatic mission. It was not difficult for them to change their mindset when dealing with ordinary Perfected Persons with low cultivation base. But there was still a loophole that needed to be carefully guarded against.
After Liao Chang and Zhang Yu finished talking, he was brought to the Upper Highness Hall by a cultivator. They came to Minister Lan's seat. Minister Lan looked down from his seat and asked, "How is it?"
Liao Chang said, "Minister Lan, it is going well."
Minister Lan glanced at the cultivator. The latter nodded. He muttered to himself for a moment before waving his hand. In a split second, two streaks of light landed in front of Liao Chang. He said, "I'll bestow this formation artifact to you. At a crucial moment, it can help you avoid all of Heavenly Summer's probing."
Liao Chang looked at it. It was a metal bead. There were fine patterns on it, but he could not sense any Qi. He instinctively felt that this formation item was not ordinary. It did not seem as simple as Minister Lan said. But he did not dare to ask more. He did not dare to probe further. He only lowered his head and said, "Yes."
At this moment, he looked at the other ray of light. It was a scroll.
The cultivator said, "Zhenren Liao, why don't you open it and take a look."
Liao Chang took it in his hand and flipped through it.
Minister Lan said, "This is the information reported by the messenger who went to Tianxia. When you get there, if you can't find the people from Yuandu Sect, you will need to verify this. If you find anything wrong, you can report it to me at any time."
Yuan Xia had been paying attention to Xia since the beginning. In the early days of Shen Xia and Tianxia, it was chaotic. There were many internal conflicts. Even Yuan Xia was disgusted by what Huanyang school did. During this period of time, Yuan Xia had a rough understanding of Tianxia. Zhu Wujiang, Fu Yu, and the others' descriptions matched their old impression of Tianxia.
However, these two people were from Fu Qing Shi Dao. Yuan Xia's Upper Highness Hall must have their own information channels. In the past, when they dealt with the world regions that seemed difficult to deal with on the surface, they made the same arrangements.
Liao Chang kept the scroll and bowed, "I will do as you command."
Soon, another half a month passed.
Zhang Yu would receive a letter from the Upper Highness Hall every day, informing him of the whereabouts of the other people in the diplomatic group.
As Lin Tingzhi had been receiving invitations from the various worlds, he felt that if this continued, it would delay things, so he decided to split up this group. In any case, there were more people in this group.
Zhang Yu thought for a moment. As Lin Tingzhi was very disciplined, he did not stay for long in each world. At most, he would stay for three to five days. Therefore, according to the normal journey, everyone would be able to meet up with him in about a month.
He looked at the time dial at the side and stared at its shadow for a while. According to Yuan Xia's calendar, there were still a little more than two months before the one year cycle.
According to his previous deduction, because Yuan Xia's own Dao and Heavenly Dao were not completely compatible, there would be a gap between the two. This gap was the dark land that Sui Dao spoke of.
This gap did not exist in reality, but was a conflict between one's own Dao and Heavenly Dao. It could be called a "gap hole" for the time being.
In the beginning, the conflict between the two was very small, but the more the two intertwined, the greater the conflict. Before the host and guest were reversed, Yuan Xia had to accommodate Heavenly Dao. Therefore, every year, they would make certain adjustments to reduce the conflict as much as possible.
At this time, Yuan Xia's monitoring of the entire world was at its weakest. When Sui Dao went to the dark land, he took advantage of this point.
However, as he thought before, Sui Dao was a Yuan Xia cultivator. What this person could do, he might not be able to do. Therefore, if he wanted to go there, it was not safe to do so. He still needed a condition.
He had already thought about it. That condition was that when the one year cycle repeated, he would take a boat back to Tianxia and open the gap between the two worlds!
At that time, his consciousness clone would be able to go there for a trip!
This was not a fantasy. For example, when Master Xun first sent a message to him, he used the alternation of the sun and moon. This meant that the gap here could be used.
He looked at the Yuan Hall. Even if he was discovered at that time, he would return to Tianxia. The Yuan Hall did not know what he wanted to do. According to his understanding of the Yuan Hall, for the sake of the overall situation, this person would most likely ignore it and even help him suppress this matter. They would not investigate further.
