Zhang Yu's words were like thunder, majestic and majestic. The echoes reverberated in the hall for a long time, shaking the hearts of the two EsGods and the middle-aged official, causing them to lose their composure.
He looked at the middle-aged official and said, "You guys are no longer suitable to keep these things. Xuanfu will take back the treasures in the sealed vault today."
The middle-aged official's face flushed red. He wanted to stand up, but he could not do so. His legs did not seem to listen to him anymore, and the divine robe on his body did not have any effect at all.
He could only shout, "Zhang Xuanzheng, the two prefectures will not allow you to do this!"
Zhang Yu said calmly, "If the two prefectures are not satisfied, then let them come and find me."
The middle-aged official tried his best to raise his head, and his neck made cracking sounds. He gritted his teeth and said, "I am the person in charge here. The vault here is sealed. Without my permission, you can't take anything away!"
Zhang Yu folded his sleeves behind his back as he looked up and said: "Don't tell me you don't know that this sealed warehouse was originally built by the Profound Palace?"
The middle-aged official was shocked. He really did not know about this.
Zhang Yu's body flashed, and the Xuanzheng seal flew out. This seal flew outside and was above him. At the same time, it emitted waves of clear light. At the same time, there was the sound of heavenly music. In the entire fortress, all the metal doors with heavenly stems and earthly branches as serial numbers flashed with a stream of light and underwent different changes.
At this moment, he used Xuanzheng's Authority to change the consciousness of all the 'Jade Officials' in this vault.
From this moment onward, without his permission, no one could open any of the vault doors, and no one could barge in without destroying the vault. Since he said he would take it back, he would do it. He would take back the treasures along with the vault.
I don't need to take anything away because even this place is mine!
The middle-aged civil official was still struggling, saying, "Today's matter, if a dispute arises, will Xuanzheng be able to bear it? Xuan Zheng has treated those tame gods so harshly. After the various god nations heard about it, they were dissatisfied and doubtful. What can Xuan Zheng do? "
Zhang Yu replied, "Since when did the Outer Gods and Otherworldlings have the right to dictate how I, Tianxia, do things?" He looked at the stone tablet again. "But you did remind me."
There were a lot of things here, and most of them were artifacts with great magical power. Looking at how familiar Shui Zhu was with this place, he guessed that it was not the first time she had done something like this. If this gap was opened, it would attract other gods to come and ask for it.
To deal with these EsGods with ulterior motives, he had to make them work and not give them anything. At the same time, he had to make them do it willingly. This was the correct way.
He shook his sleeves and walked forward.
Ai Ruo lowered her head and knelt down. She saw Zhang Yu walk past her and walk towards the stone tablet step by step. She couldn't see what he was going to do, but she felt an inexplicable sense of panic.
The middle-aged official also felt that something was wrong. He knelt there and shouted, "Zhang Xuanzheng, what are you doing?"
Zhang Yu walked all the way to the platform before standing still. He looked at the stone tablet that was shining faintly. He reached out and pressed his hand on the tablet. In an instant, a wave of heat flowed into his body.
He could absorb it slowly without touching it with his body. That way, it would not be destroyed.
However, he wanted to use this to clearly tell some people in the two manors that even if he destroyed everything here, he would not let them take it out and hand it over to the Outer Gods. There was no room for negotiation in this matter.
A moment later, cracks appeared on the surface of the stone tablet. The light that seemed to be breathing within it dimmed until it disappeared. The moment the light disappeared, the stone tablet shattered into countless pieces. It collapsed and turned into a pile of rubble on the ground.
There were even a few pieces that rolled down from the platform and stopped in front of Ai Ruo. She felt all her strength being sucked out and couldn't help but collapse to the ground.
At this moment, groups of armored soldiers began to gather outside the vault. The two metal giants from before realized that Zhang Yu had entered the vault, but they had no way of entering. In the end, they could only inform the outside.
The soldiers didn't know what had happened. They only reacted according to how someone had broken into the vault.
At the same time, this news was also reported up the chain of command. Soon, it reached the Moon Province.
The Moon Province's governor, Ding Yanli, was in the government office. As soon as he received the news, he immediately sent people to investigate this matter. The detailed report was quickly placed on the table. After he read it, his expression turned serious. He said in a deep voice, "Is it confirmed?"
The prefecture's registrar, Huang Gongyan, said, "It's confirmed. There are some things that Manager Shui's servant doesn't know much about and didn't explain in detail. However, we only found out about it through some other channels."
Ding Yanli said in a deep voice, "This Shui Zhao is just a small official in the vault. Who gave him the authority to seal the vault's items?"
Registrar Huang said, "He's the brother-in-law of the prefecture's imperial censor."
Ding Yanli immediately understood who was standing behind Shui Zhao. He sneered, "Their hands are quite long. They even reached out to me."
Although that person had considerable authority in the prefecture, Ding Yanli was also a regional official. He wasn't afraid at all.
He said in a deep voice, "However, since this matter involves that Xuanzheng, it seems I'll have to make a personal appearance."
Registrar Huang tried to persuade him, "Prefect, this matter should be …"
Ding Yanli raised a hand to stop him. "If I don't make a personal appearance, I'm afraid some of the subordinates won't be able to see the situation clearly and will do something inappropriate." He looked outside. "Some people just think too highly of themselves. I don't know where they get their confidence from."
In a continent, the Xuanfu was usually at the top of the hierarchy and had absolute power to change the situation. Legally speaking, everything in a continent was under their control.
However, under normal circumstances, the Xuanfu wouldn't interfere with the operations of the two prefectures. Usually, they would only target those mystical forces.
Hundreds of years ago, the two prefectures had to rely on the Xuanfu to fight against the mystical forces and spiritual beings.
However, it was different now. The two prefectures had divine robes and profound armors, flying boats and profound weapons to rely on. They didn't have to rely on the Xuanfu for everything. Therefore, for a long time, especially in the past sixty years, the upper echelons of the two prefectures only worshipped the Xuanfu and hoped that he would remain high and mighty and not interfere with their affairs.
After Zhu Xuan took over the position, he did indeed adopt an indifferent attitude towards worldly affairs.
In fact, for the past sixty years, the Xuanfu and the two prefectures were like two rivers that didn't intersect with each other. Unless it was necessary during wartime, no one would bother with each other.
However, because of this, the prestige of the Xuanfu was in fact weakened. Today, the upper echelons might still have some respect for the Xuanfu, but the lower echelons basically didn't care about the Xuanfu at all. This was because they didn't interact with each other normally.
Ding Yanli was the governor of the Moon Prefecture and sat in the heart of the Qingyang Upper Continent. His mind was very clear. He didn't forget how the Great Azure Banyan that covered the entire Qingyang Upper Continent came to be. Moreover, he was also very dissatisfied with some people.
Because it was wartime, in order to ensure that nothing unexpected happened, he first issued an order for the Commandant to go to the barracks and take charge. At the same time, he also ordered Manager Kou and Cao to arrange for people to guard the area. If anyone took the opportunity to cause trouble, they were to be immediately arrested.
After issuing the order, he brought Registrar Huang and a group of civil officials with him and rode Kun Tu's creation, the 'Heavenly Plow', to Yi Lin Prefecture.
The 'Heavenly Plow' was a giant beetle-shaped creation. It was six zhang long and had sawtooth-like legs under its abdomen. It could stay on any terrain and had a flaky carapace that could be retracted when necessary to increase its defensive capabilities.
Its flying speed was also extremely fast. In less than a moment, Ding Yanli arrived in front of the treasury. Yi Lin Prefecture's Minister of Justice Yang You hurriedly went up to greet him and bowed, "Greetings, Official Lord."
Ding Yanli swept his gaze and saw over a hundred armored soldiers blocking the entrance of the treasury. There were also over a thousand soldiers wearing divine robes surrounding the area. He frowned and said, "Why do you need so many people? Withdraw and leave only the Feng Ku Warriors here. "
Yang You hurriedly said, "Official Lord, this is for your safety."
Ding Yanli said, "For my safety? Is there an enemy here? Who is it? Is it that Zhang Xuanzheng? "
Yang You said in a low voice, "Official Lord, after all, no one knows if that Zhang Xuanzheng is under the influence of Nightmare. That's why he's doing this …"
"Hm?"
Ding Yanli's sharp gaze landed on Yang You. Yang You immediately lowered his head. He sneered and said, "Alright, the crime has already been pinned on you." He looked forward and snorted. "You guys are really ignorant and fearless."
Registrar Huang said from the side, "Minister of Justice Yang, do as ordered."
Yang You had no choice but to agree. He slowly walked down the stairs. However, at this moment, a cry of surprise came from the crowd. He looked around in confusion and saw that everyone was looking up at the sky.
He also raised his head to look, and saw a Daoist whose entire body flickered with jade light floating above the square. His robes fluttered in the wind, and his entire body was surrounded by streaks of rainbow light. Clouds and mist drifted around him, and there was even a faint celestial sound reverberating between heaven and earth.
The soldiers stared in a daze. This immortal-like scene was truly shocking. They would never believe that such a person had been possessed by a Nightmare.
Ding Yanli took a look and turned to Registrar Huang, saying, "Looks like we don't need to come here. This Zhang Xuanzheng is enough to deal with this matter."
Registrar Huang's heart skipped a beat. He knew that this sentence was meant for the one above. As expected, he saw Zhang Yu's gaze fall on him. Ding Yanli raised his sleeves and cupped his hands towards the sky, saying, "Zhang Xuanzheng, greetings. May I know what's the situation in the sealed treasury?"
Zhang Yu's faint voice came from the sky, saying, "Shui Zhao arbitrarily gave the item in the sealed treasury to an Outer God. I've already captured him along with the other two Outer Gods. This person is from the Zhou Prefecture and can be handed over to Official Lord Ding to deal with. I'll take the other two Outer Gods away. From today onwards, this sealed treasury will be under the control of Xuanfu!"
Ding Yanli nodded and said, "This sealed treasury originally belonged to Xuanfu. Now that this matter has happened, returning it to Xuanfu is also the right thing to do."
The conversation between the two was heard clearly by everyone present. Only then did they understand the cause of the matter. Many people could not help but curse Minister Shui. Only Minister of Justice Yang's expression became somewhat ugly.
Zhang Yu raised his sleeves and bowed to Ding Yanli. Then, his sleeves fell and slowly rose into the air before everyone's eyes. He turned into a green rainbow surrounded by jade mist and flew into the sky with the two EsGods.
