Before Yuan Xia invaded the Gully Realm, Zhang Yu had hinted several times that if Yuan Xia's invasion was repelled, Yuan Xia might give up on their strategy and choose to directly attack Tianxia.
Zhu Tingzhi was already prepared for this.
Deng Jing said, "That should be the case. This time, a committee member was captured by me, and his attack was thwarted by me once again. Furthermore, I even used someone who sought the complete Dao. Now that it's involved in a battle of this level, Yuan Xia definitely won't simply increase their strength. They definitely have the intention to overturn me in one fell swoop."
Since Tianxia's side used someone who sought the complete Dao, Yuan Xia would definitely do the same. Regardless of what the two sides were thinking, the participation of these high-level cultivators in the battle was, in fact, the start of an all-out confrontation.
However, although Tianxia's side had predicted the outcome of this battle, they didn't expect Daoist You to seek the complete Dao. Although the process was somewhat different, it didn't contradict with the general plan.
Daoist Yu Su said, "Yuan Xia's platform is still standing there, and it has a great influence on me. Since they want to attack me, why don't we get rid of them as soon as possible?"
Wei Tingzhi objected, "Since they're emissaries, it's inconvenient for me to do this before Yuan Xia officially launches an attack on Tianxia. Moreover, leaving them alive will allow us to know their movements."
Chief Enforcer Chen said, "Zhang Tingzhi, what do you think?"
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "The platform was set up to carry out the strategy of disintegrating Tianxia from the inside. It's convenient for communication between the two sides. However, since this strategy can no longer be carried out, the platform's existence is only a forward station.
Yuan Xia should also understand that these people can't stop Tianxia at all. Leaving them alive will only confuse me. Therefore, the moment they decided to attack me, they should've given up on this place.
In my opinion, we shouldn't move for now. If they attack, it's not too late to clean them up then. "
Most of the court enforcers nodded in agreement.
Although morality didn't seem to be important in a battle of life and death, it was still useful in Tianxia. I was on the side of righteousness, so I naturally stood on the side of righteousness and could boost the morale of my troops.
Moreover, if Yuan Xia were to launch a large-scale attack, there would definitely be a warning. It wouldn't be a problem to deal with the Dun Tai in advance.
Zhang Yu said, "As the Valley World is relatively easy to take down, I think that Yuanxia's attack this time is mainly to wipe out the Valley World. Based on Yuan Xia's strength, it is very likely that they will attack from two sides. One side will suppress Tianxia so that I can't use too much strength, while the other side will attack the Gully Realm and take it down.
In addition, if we, Tianxia, don't display enough strength, then Yuan Xia's offensive might shift to Tianxia's territory. "
Wu Tingzhi thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Tingzhi, in your opinion, how much strength do you think Yuan Xia will use this time?"
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to know now. It depends on Yuan Xia's estimation of Tianxia. They might not believe what I said before.
However, looking at the past battles to wipe out the world, Yuan Xia has only used two strategies. If the world isn't strong, then they will focus on eliminating the upper echelons. Once the upper echelons are gone, the remaining forces won't be a problem.
The other strategy is if the opponent is strong, then they will focus on attrition. They will use manpower and material resources that the opponent can't reach to exhaust the opponent to death. This kind of battle usually lasts for hundreds of years. I, Tianxia, have a Dao Stabilizing Treasure and an unknown number of upper echelons in Yuan Xia. Therefore, they will probably use the latter strategy. "
All the court enforcers agreed with this opinion.
Zhang Yu had written a book for them to read about the various strategies Yuan Xia used. Everyone had their own judgment, and they were more or less inclined to this judgment.
This was because even those who sought the complete dao couldn't compete against a Dao Stabilizing Treasure. Rashly entering Tianxia was just seeking death.
Yuanxia's way of doing things was to first seek a stable place to become their foothold. Then, they would advance step by step and lead Yuanxia's dao mechanism into Tianxia. Finally, they would achieve their goal of swallowing the entire World Domain.
Tianxia could make arrangements based on this point. In fact, they had been preparing for this for a long time.
Lin Tingzhi said, "This time, Daoist You captured Advisor Cai. This person is a High Hall Advisor of the Yuan Hall. Even if his position isn't high, he should know a lot of things, right? Can we find out some inside information about Yuan Xia from him? "
Wei Tingzhi expressed his agreement and said, "Although this person might not be willing to cooperate now, we can try asking. However, who should go? “
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to trouble two people with the same task. Since Daoist You captured this person, why don't we let Daoist You go?"
Wu Tingzhi said, "That's feasible."
The other court enforcers had no objections.
As the High Hall's Minister of Finance, Minister Cai's standards must be very high. If someone of average cultivation went to talk to him, he might not be willing to speak. However, Daoist You was different. Daoist You was the one who had personally captured him. Moreover, he was the one who had asked for the complete dao.
At this moment, Zhang Yu changed his mind. He called Daoist Ming Zhou over and said a few words to him. The latter nodded, bowed, and left in light.
Daoist You remained in the Gully Realm for the next two days. This was because Yuan Xia might attack this place again in the coming days. Setting up a formation here was just enough for him to test his gains.
At this moment, a letter flew in from the sky. He received it and nodded subconsciously. After a while, a golden light came from the sky and landed beside the formation. Chang Yang walked out and bowed to him, saying, "Exalted You, I'm here on Zhang Tingzhi's orders to follow you to persuade the Yuan Xia criminals."
Zhang Yu sent Chang Yang along this time not only because he was good at persuasion, but also because there were some things that Daoist You couldn't say.
Daoist You stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "Then let's go."
The two of them stood still. A golden light landed and disappeared in a flash. When the two of them appeared again. They had already landed on an altar wrapped in thick clouds.
Advisor Cai was sitting there with a gloomy expression. Although his body didn't seem to be restrained, his qi was very weak. It was obvious that he couldn't use his powers.
When he saw the two of them, his expression changed slightly when he saw Daoist You. Then, he sneered.
Daoist You walked over and sat down in front of him, saying, "Enlightened Cai, I'm sure you can guess why we're here."
Advisor Cai snorted, saying, "If you're here to persuade us to surrender, then forget it. Although I was captured by you, I lost, not Yuan Xia."
Daoist You was surprised, saying, "Forgive me for being ignorant, but is Yuan Xia related to Enlightened Cai?"
Advisor Cai was annoyed, but then he thought of something. His expression changed several times, and he asked softly, "What do you mean?"
Daoist You took out a letter and placed it on the table, saying, "This is Yuan Xia's judgment on this matter. Your esteemed self is already a dead person in Yuan Xia, and your esteemed self is no longer a committee member."
Cai Siyi reached out and picked up the letter, flipping through it. He looked like he didn't care and said, "So what?"
Daoist You said, "You don't know? Then I'll tell you, you're already dead in Yuan Xia, and there's no possibility of you returning. If we let you go back now, do you dare to go back? "
Advisor Cai's heart sank. This was also what made him worried. If Yuan Xia really made this decision, even if Tianxia let him go, he wouldn't dare to go back. You're dead in battle, and I've already said you're dead, so how can you still be alive? You must die!
He was silent for a moment, then he sneered, saying, "You don't have to be so proud. I can't go back now, but when you're destroyed by Yuan Xia, it won't be difficult for me to return. I believe Yuan Xia won't care about the small things I've done."
Daoist You said, "So that's what Enlightened Cai thinks. Does Enlightened Cai think that just because I, Tianxia, didn't kill you and only imprisoned you, I'll keep you imprisoned forever?
I advise Enlightened Cai to pray that Tianxia can win, because if I win, I might not take your life. If I lose, how can I let you live? I'll definitely bury you with me, so don't expect to return safely to Yuan Xia. "
After a pause, he said, "On the other hand, if Enlightened Cai can help us, then even if you're a meritorious person, we'll give you everything you deserve."
Advisor Cai said disdainfully, "In the end, you still want me to surrender to Tianxia."
Chang Yang, who was sitting at the side, said, "Enlightened Cai, why are you resisting? Enlightened Cai helping us is helping yourself. "
Advisor Cai shifted his gaze and mocked, "Why can't I see it?"
Chang Yang said sincerely, "Cai Shangzhen, think about it. When I fight with Yuan Xia in the future, there might be other prisoners. If they're willing to cooperate with Tianxia, then what's the use of you?"
Speaking of this, he said bitterly, "Moreover, if Yuanxia really won, they would naturally be able to obtain the Ultimate Path. But why should those people hiding in the back be able to obtain the Ultimate Path while Zhenren Cai, who clearly rushed to the front line and risked his life for Yuanxia, is imprisoned and unable to obtain anything. Is Advisor Cai really willing to accept this? I feel that it's unfair for Councilor Cai! "
Advisor Cai didn't speak. He knew these words were instigating him, but he felt they were right. Why was he abandoned like this? Why was he killed in battle and stripped of his position as a Councilor? Why could Yuan Xia and the others take the Ultimate Dao in the end, while he was a prisoner here?
Haha, if I can't get it, you can't get it either!
He was silent for a while, then finally looked up and said, "I can say it, but you have to promise not to make things difficult for me in the future. Also, you can't tell others that I said it."
Daoist You nodded and said, "Okay. If Enlightened Cai is worried, we can write a contract as proof."
Advisor Cai cupped his sleeves and said, "No need, I believe your promise." What was the use of a contract? With Tianxia's ability, he could resolve it if he wanted to. It was better to be magnanimous.
He said, "Then what do you want to know?"
Daoist You looked at him seriously and said, "First, how many Dao Guarding Treasures does Yuan Xia have now? What are their functions? "
