Close to two months had passed, and there was almost no movement in Yuan Xia. Meanwhile, at the platform set up in Tianxia Domain, the cultivator who was temporarily appointed as the resident envoy had yet to be replaced. Therefore, he was always in a state of anxiety, afraid that he would suddenly lose his life one day.
He was very suspicious that the person who replaced him might be waiting for him to lose his life before taking up the post.
He complained about this very much in his heart. Even if he didn't come now, wouldn't he still come in the future? Wasn't that a matter of sooner or later? What was the point of dragging someone down with him for no reason?
Just as he was in a state of anxiety, he finally received news that the resident envoy was about to arrive and asked him to make preparations for the replacement.
When he heard this, he immediately felt a sense of relief. After waiting anxiously for two days, the resident envoy who replaced him finally arrived. The moment he saw the resident envoy, he finally felt a sense of relief in his heart.
After he explained everything to the person, he was about to leave, but the resident envoy called out to him and said, "Fellow Daoist, please wait for a while before you return."
The cultivator immediately felt that something was wrong and said, "Is there anything else? I've only been here for two months, and I really don't know much. I've already explained everything that I can, and I don't know anything else."
However, the resident envoy said, "To be able to make things so clear and orderly in just two months, it can be seen that you're a talent."
The cultivator was in a state of panic. Couldn't he do things well? He forced a smile and said, "You're too kind, Spiritual Master. My shallow abilities are nothing, and anyone else can do it well."
The resident envoy didn't comment and only said, "Before I came here, I heard that this person is suspected to have been cursed, and the previous ones all died mysteriously. Although this is nonsense, we still have to be cautious. There must be a reason for the changes in the natural order, so I don't know how long I can stay in this position.
Since you were able to pass so many days peacefully in this position, it means that you are very lucky. Therefore, I feel that you should stay. If something happens to me, you should be the temporary replacement. "
How could that Daoist cultivator be willing? He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Zhenren, I'm only sent here at the last moment. My status is not high enough, and my cultivation is also not high enough. It's just that there's really no one who can send me here. Zhenren's ability is a hundred or a thousand times greater than mine. What can I do to help here? Furthermore, my registration book is not here, so I can't … "
The Resident Envoy directly threw out a name list and said, "Don't worry about this. Before I came, I already asked for your name list. From now on, you are officially a member of Dun Tai."
The Daoist cultivator took the name list and was immediately stunned.
The Resident Envoy said, "Now that you're here, do you still think you can go back? As long as I keep your name list, you won't be able to go back. Do your job well. If you do well, I don't mind letting you go, but you have to listen to my orders. "
The Daoist cultivator had no other choice. He said weakly, "Yes, I'm willing to follow your arrangements."
The Resident Envoy said, "What's your name?"
The Daoist cultivator said, "I'm Mi Li."
The Resident Envoy took out a letter and said, "Send this to Principal Envoy Zhang of Tianxia. This is a matter of going to the palace. Don't make any mistakes."
Mi Li composed himself. It was just a letter, so there was no problem. He took it, bowed, and went out to deliver the letter.
Although Zhang Yu did not see any movements from Yuan Xia recently, the news about Yuan Xia did not stop. They were all sent from Jin Zhixing.
Jin Zhixing relied on the connections he had built in various worlds a few days ago to obtain some scattered news from them. He then summarized the news and sent it back. He even attached his own judgment.
Zhang Yu was able to discern some things from the complicated and messy information that was mixed with truth and falsehood.
It was likely that his previous strategy had worked. The Upper Highness wanted to turn around and exclude the Lower Highness. If this matter was hidden from the Lower Highness, relying on the Upper Highness's authority, there were not many signs before this, so it was very likely to succeed.
However, because he had sent some information to Sheng Zheng in advance, His Highness was prepared in advance. Therefore, when His Highness turned his head, His Highness exerted force, causing His Highness to be in a dilemma and even a little embarrassed.
If they continued to turn around, it would become His Highness' suggestion. Then, His Highness would definitely take advantage of it. If they did not turn around, His Highness would still benefit if there were any problems in the future. How could they be willing to accept this? Therefore, this matter was repeatedly implicated again and again.
In these two months, both sides were fighting internally. However, from the subsequent situation, both sides coordinated with each other and gradually reached an agreement.
He noticed that from the news from various worlds, the confrontation between both sides had been very intense. There was no sign of easing up for dozens of days. However, recently, both sides seemed to have resolved the dispute.
This situation was very likely because of the Grand Minister's intervention. Otherwise, it was impossible to reach a compromise overnight when there were so many contradictions previously.
He pondered for a moment. Once the internal dispute was resolved, it would definitely be vented to the outside world. This was inevitable.
However, even if the Yuan Hall intended to take action, they would not launch an attack immediately.
This was because the Yuan Hall had not completely given up on him. Even if it was for the purpose of pacifying, it would definitely communicate in advance.
When he was thinking about this, news came from Xuntian Dao Zhang. The Yuan Xia Platform had sent a letter. It said that the new Yuan Xia Resident Envoy was looking for him.
He sent a message back and asked the other party to wait for a while. Then, with a change of mind, an incarnation landed on the platform.
When the Resident Envoy saw the light landing, he tidied his robe and waited for the figure to appear. He bowed and said, "Envoy Zhang, sorry to disturb you."
Zhang Yu nodded in return and said, "The Resident Envoy said in the letter that he was ordered by the Yuan Hall to ask me about some matters. Now that I am here, you can say it directly."
The Resident Envoy said, "Then this one will skip the pleasantries. Principal Envoy Zhang, His Highness has asked this one to pass on a message. He hopes that Principal Envoy Zhang can try to figure out when the treasure will open, when it will close, and when is the most suitable time to attack?"
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "This is not for the Resident Envoy to ask. I also want to inform you that the opening and closing of the Guarding Dao Treasure is uncertain and there are no rules to follow. In fact, you don't have to ask about this at all. With your strength, if you are stumped by a Guarding Dao Treasure, how can you talk about destroying Tianxia? “
The Resident Envoy nodded and said, "I would like to ask Envoy Zhang about the specific cultivation base of the cultivators in that world, as well as their abilities and spells."
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "Those people are just some ordinary Xuan Zun. As a higher-up of Tianxia, I don't have the time to care about these things. It is unnecessary for you to ask such questions."
The Resident Envoy asked again, "Then, according to Envoy Zhang's judgment, if we attack this world again, how much strength will Tianxia provide to support us?"
Zhang Yu flicked his finger, and a light talisman flew in front of the Resident Envoy. He said, "I have written all these things on it. You can just send it to the Yuan Hall."
The information in it was both true and false. As for whether the Yuan Hall believed it or not, it was up to the Yuan Hall. If Yuan Xia sent people to attack the Canyon World again, they would try to destroy it again.
Now that Tianxia had an avatar and a treasure to protect the world, they didn't need to avoid conflicts with Yuan Xia as much as before.
Although Yuan Xia was powerful, he couldn't use all of his strength. This was mostly due to internal constraints. If it wasn't for the internal conflicts, even if he only used a small part of his strength, Tianxia would have to go all out to deal with it.
After the Resident Envoy asked a few more questions on behalf of the Yuan Hall, he bowed and thanked him. After Zhang Yu's avatar left, he wrote a letter and sent it back to the Yuan Hall.
Just as Zhang Yu had thought, the Yuan Upper Palace had put aside their dispute because of the appearance of the Grand Ministers. The Upper Palace and the Lower Palace had temporarily reached an agreement. After receiving his letter, the various officials were also skeptical of his words.
No matter what he wrote in the letter, it didn't affect Yuan Xia's decision at all. If they didn't attack Tianxia's territory, they must attack the Canyon World. They had to choose one of the two.
The majority of the Yuan Hall's ministers believed that attacking the Canyon World now was actually easier. After all, this world was still very weak. If they destroyed it now, they could prevent it from growing stronger in the future.
As for the obstruction of the Longevity Needle, with Yuan Xia's ability, he wouldn't be helpless just because of a treasure.
In the past destroyed worlds, they had faced treasures before, but whether it was in terms of foundation or numbers, they couldn't compete with Yuan Xia. In the end, Yuan Xia won.
What made the Yuan Hall uncomfortable was that if Tianxia came down and supported the Canyon World with all his strength, it was almost certain that the previous investment and layout in Zhang Yu was a failure.
It was only a small matter to pay the price of external items, but the failure of the war strategy would inevitably damage the Yuan Hall's reputation and cause their prestige to plummet.
In order to restore their prestige, they could only let one or two ministers go and push the blame to others. Only then would this matter be settled.
It would be fine if it was a normal day, but at this time, the various ministers were waiting to destroy Tianxia. Who would be willing to go down?
Originally, this person should be Minister Lan, because he was the one who pushed to destroy Tianxia's power from within. However, Minister Lan was a trusted aide of the Myriad Daoist, so he definitely couldn't stand up and take responsibility for this matter. Therefore, they could only push for someone with a weaker foundation.
After the ministers discussed, they finally looked at one person and said, "Minister Cai, this time, we'll leave the matter of attacking that newly ascended world to you."
Minister Cai's expression was very ugly.
He knew that he hadn't been a minister for long and didn't have much of a friendship with the other ministers. Therefore, not many people were willing to speak up for him. This could be seen from the fact that his body was destroyed by Zhang Yu last time, but no one stood up for him.
However, on the bright side, if he succeeded in destroying the Canyon World this time, then he could stand firmly in the Yuan Hall. The key was that he couldn't refuse.
He took a deep breath and said with determination, "Since it's the ministers' recommendation, I can only accept this order. This time, as long as the Yuan Hall has enough support, I will definitely be able to take down this world."
