While Zhang Yu was talking to Chief Attendant Chen, he found out from Xuntian Dao Zhang that the resident envoy from Dun Tai was looking for an audience.
He thought that Yuan Xia had sent a letter from the Upper Hall and was slightly surprised. Yuan Xia's reaction was faster this time. According to his original plan, it would take a while for news to arrive.
He thought for a while and sent a doppelganger to Dun Tai and landed on a platform. The resident envoy was already waiting there with a serious face. When he saw his doppelganger, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Principal Envoy Zhang."
Zhang Yu nodded in return and said, "You're looking for me, is there a message from your Ministers?"
The resident envoy said with a serious expression, "It's not a letter from the Upper Hall, but I'm looking for Principal Envoy Zhang."
Zhang Yu looked down and said, "You're looking for me?"
The resident envoy said seriously, "As the resident envoy, I represent Yuan Xia to look for Principal Envoy Zhang. I think I have the right to do so."
Zhang Yu said, "What do you want to ask?"
The resident envoy raised his head and looked at Zhang Yu's doppelganger in the light mist. Even though he was very uncomfortable, he still said seriously, "I've heard about the closing of the two worlds." He took a breath and said, "Fellow Daoists from Dun Tai all said that it was because Tianxia used the Daoist treasure. Therefore, I'm here to ask Principal Envoy Zhang, why didn't you tell Yuan Xia in advance? Now that he's trapped inside, I wonder what's the situation? "
His personality was very tough, but it was no wonder. The previous ambassadors all had problems, and most of them were unwilling to come. However, when he saw the opportunity, he took the initiative to come here. He wanted to make some achievements, and not be like the previous ambassadors who just sat in their positions without doing anything.
Zhang Yu said with a calm expression, "Since you're asking, I'll answer you. This matter has nothing to do with me, because this Daoist treasure was passed down by You Shangzhen's own sect. How he wants to use it is his own business and I can't control it. As for your fellow Daoists, according to my knowledge, all of them have been captured. "
However, the Resident Envoy raised his doubts and said, "Principal Envoy Zhang, since You Shangzhen has a Dao Guarding Treasure, why didn't he mention it before? Could it be that Head Emissary Zhang didn't know anything about this? That doesn't make sense, right? "
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "Esteemed Envoy has been here for some time, right?"
The resident envoy replied, "It's been a while. Although it's not long, it's not short either. Why do you ask, Head Envoy Zhang?"
Zhang Yu calmly said, "If the Resident Envoy can think of this problem, how can the High Palace Ministers not think of it? As for why, I can answer you. It's because the Dao Suppressing Artifact is related to the mighty figures of the upper realm. If it's not necessary, I usually won't tell others about it because it might trigger the secrets of the heavens. If the people involved don't know about it, then I'll be punished by the mighty figures of the upper realm. "
His gaze fell on the Resident Envoy and said, "It seems like no one told the Resident Envoy about this matter. I advise the Resident Envoy to go back as soon as possible. Now that you're in such a troublesome position, it's not something you can handle."
It was obvious that this person didn't have a backer and didn't have anyone to guide him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked such a question.
However, the Resident Envoy's attitude was firm and he said, "Our Yuanxia people have our own way of doing things. There's no need for you to say more. "
Zhang Yu said, "That's up to you, Esteemed Envoy. I'll add one more thing. This matter isn't that serious. Your side only lost a few people, but you managed to find out such a secret. I don't think your side suffered a loss."
The Resident Envoy said unhappily, "Our Yuanxia lost a lot of fellow Daoists in this battle. You, Principal Envoy Zhang, will be one of us sooner or later. You should stand on my side and consider things. How can you talk about those captured fellow Daoists like this? This is disrespectful to them and also contempt for our Yuanxia! "
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "You can think whatever you want. You can bring my words back as they are."
The Resident Envoy raised his head and said with equal harshness, "Of course I will bring them back. I will also inform the other Councilors of Zhang Shangzhen's attitude. "
Zhang Yu said, "That would be for the best." With that, his incarnation dissipated and he left.
After he left, the Resident Envoy took a few deep breaths. Just now, every word he said to Zhang Yu was extremely stressful. Especially when he raised his head to look at the other party without any hesitation, it made him feel like his heart and body were about to collapse.
After a while, he recovered and turned back. He wrote down the conversation into a letter and used the platform to send it back.
Yuanxia had been waiting for Zhang Yu's explanation. Therefore, once the letter was sent out, it was sent to the Great Hall at an unprecedented speed.
After the Councilors finished reading the letter, although they were not very satisfied with the reply in the letter, they approved of Zhang Yu's last sentence.
Losing a few people was nothing. Learning about a Dao Guarding Treasure was actually more useful. At least they knew about it in advance before attacking Tianxia. This would give them an explanation.
This time, they were angry. Rather than saying it was because they had suffered losses, it was better to say that they had lost face. They had organized an attack with great difficulty, but they were once again thwarted.
However, they had invested a lot in Zhang Yu. If he really was as he explained, they could still reluctantly accept it.
But no matter what, they were prepared to adjust their internal strategy. Otherwise, if they couldn't hold back, things would go completely astray and His Highness would take advantage of them.
At the same time, the messenger from the Great Hall had also arrived at the platform on Tianxia's side. As soon as the group arrived, they ordered people to find the resident envoy.
The resident envoy was still waiting for news. When he heard that someone from the Great Hall had come to find him, he thought that someone had replied to his letter in the Great Hall. He wondered how it could be so fast. At the same time, he was excited that he was valued. He wanted to make it clear to the person from the Great Hall that he could not trust Envoy Zhang too much.
When he arrived at the Great Hall and saw the messenger, he straightened his body and bowed. Then, he impatiently asked, "How is it? Does the Great Hall have anything to say to me? "
The messenger looked at him expressionlessly and said, "As the resident envoy of the platform, you did not report what you knew. Do you admit to your crime?"
The resident envoy was startled. He stared at the messenger and frowned, "What do you mean by I did not report what I knew? Since I arrived here, I have been cautious and conscientious. I have never slacked off. If there was any news, I would immediately report it to the Great Hall without any delay. This is nonsense! "
The messenger said, "Let me ask you, do you admit to your crime?"
The resident envoy was slightly annoyed and said, "What crime have I committed?"
The messenger snorted and said, "Men, this person refuses to admit to his crime. Take him down and kill his spirit on the platform. Take away his primordial spirit and erase his name from the record book!"
He did not come here to argue with the resident envoy. He was only here to announce his crime. Since the other party was unwilling to admit to his crime, he would directly carry out the order.
Immediately, someone beside him raised the name talisman bestowed by the Great Hall and waved it at the resident envoy. A ray of light shone on the resident envoy. His magic power was immediately restrained and he could not move for a moment.
The resident envoy was so angry that his body trembled. What was wrong with this world? He could not help but shout, "You can't differentiate between right and wrong, black and white. Where is the justice? Where is the justice? "
The messenger sneered and said, "My Yuanxia is the justice, my Yuanxia is the justice! The justice is right here, what are you shouting for? "
The resident envoy's face turned red. He struggled desperately and said, "I don't believe it. I will see the Sect Leader and the Minister. You have wronged a good person and slandered the resident envoy. I will not submit to you!"
The cultivators who came with the messenger looked at him with incomparable disgust. Yuanxia is where you are today. Yuanxia said that you will die today. How dare you not die? Where is your conscience?
Although the resident envoy was unwilling, it was useless under the illumination of the record book. As the light gradually faded, he could not move.
The messenger waved his sleeve and said, "Drag him out and carry out the Great Hall's order."
Immediately, a Daoist cultivator stepped forward and led him out. After a while, the cultivator returned with a porcelain bottle in his hands. Inside the bottle was the ashes of the emissary. This time, he would bring it back and suppress it. It would serve as a warning to the future generations. After taking on the role of Yuanxia, if one were to slack off, this would be the outcome!
The cultivator said, "Great Hall, the resident envoy has been killed, but there is still a person in charge of communication."
The messenger nodded and pointed to a person next to him. He said, "There can't be no one in charge of communication here. Before the new resident envoy arrives, you will be in charge of communication for the time being."
The cultivator originally had a slight smile on his face, but when he heard this, he could not help but stiffen. After all, everyone knew that the position of Yuanxia's resident envoy seemed to be cursed. The previous ones did not end well, and the one in front of him was just punished.
He was afraid and said with a trembling voice, "This, this … Spiritual Master, I …"
The messenger said impatiently, "What are you afraid of? You are only a temporary replacement. With your cultivation, you are not qualified to sit on this position. The Great Hall will not be at ease. In a few days, there will naturally be a suitable person to replace you."
Although the cultivator was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey and could only bite the bullet and agree.
Only then was the messenger satisfied and left with the person.
At this moment, Zhang Yu was still talking with Chief Attendant Chen in the depths of the Clear Sky Boat. He learned from Xuntian Dao Zhang that the resident envoy had been executed. The reason was that the resident envoy delayed important matters, resulting in a wrong war strategy.
With a single glance, he knew that His Highness was pushing all the blame onto this person's head.
He shook his head in his heart. He had already told this resident envoy that the position of an envoy was not so easy. No matter what he wanted to do, whether it was right or wrong, it was useless because this position was controlled by the general trend of the upper echelons. If he was caught in the middle, he could be crushed into ashes at any time.
He said to Chief Attendant Chen, "Chief Attendant, I just received news that Yuanxia's resident envoy was killed and the fault was pushed to this person. On the surface, Yuanxia seems to want to ease this matter. Of course, it's not because of the agreement with me, but because they don't want to be caught by the Great Hall."
Chief Attendant Chen nodded and said, "According to what Zhang Tingzhi said before, this is indeed the style of Yuanxia's Great Hall."
Zhang Yu said, "In order to reconcile the internal situation, the Great Hall should slow down for a while. This is like a giant boat turning around, it's hard to speed up. The Great Hall will seize the opportunity to straighten out everything. Once Yuanxia adjusts, it will be difficult to stop the attack."
