Zhang Yu read the letter and saw that there wasn't much other than inviting him to the Tenki-in Hall. The rest of the letter was just a few polite words.
Like the previous letters from the two prefectures, this letter was sent in the name of a private individual. The person who signed it was the current Vice-Head of the Tenki-in Hall, Master Craftsman Tan Cong.
He had heard of this person before. The Tenki-in Hall didn't only have one Vice-Head, but only this person was responsible for external communication.
This person might not be the best in terms of skill, but his reputation was not small.
The Master Craftsmen of the Tenki-in Hall were not below the upper echelons of the two prefectures. His position as Head was comparable to that of the current Patriarch of the Qingyang Continent. The Vice-Head's status was not low either.
However, he had no relationship with Tan Cong, and the Tenki-in Hall's etiquette was below that of Xuanfu. As Xuanzheng, he had full authority to deal with Xuanfu's matters. There was no reason for him to take the initiative to visit him just because of a letter.
Perhaps the other party was also aware of the situation, so he was only using this letter to test his attitude.
He thought for a moment, then wrote a letter on the spot. He wrote that he might have some free time in late May. If the Tenki-in Hall had something to do, then they could send someone to discuss it with him.
After sealing the letter, he called a disciple and had him send it back to the continent.
Over the next ten days, he sat in Square Platform's encampment. In addition to cultivating, he also made a series of arrangements.
First, he arranged many sentries in the Wasteland, mainly to prevent the people of the Shuang Continent from attacking again.
At the same time, he didn't forget to send Cao Fangding, Wen Liang, and the others to continue investigating the Shuang Continent.
On one hand, it was to understand the specific movements of this generation. On the other hand, it was to better investigate the internal situation of the two prefectures.
Now that the location of the Shuang Continent had been discovered and he had reported it to the two prefectures, even if someone wanted to hide it, it would be impossible.
Once this phase of the war in the north ended, if the Qingyang Continent won, then the two prefectures would be able to transfer a certain amount of military power to deal with the threat of the Shuang Continent.
There was no need for Xuanfu to be the main force here.
But when the time came, he would still try to participate in this attack, because according to Wu Ze, it was only possible to find some clues about the creator in the Frost Continent.
During this period, he also received a report from the Inspection Department, saying that the advisor who sent the letter to him had been arrested.
This person had no direct connection with Shuang Zhou. The reason why he sent the letter was because his family was threatened and forced to do so. Therefore, he did not dare to disobey. His family had been rescued, but those people had long disappeared and were still being pursued.
Zhang Yu didn't expect to be able to get anything out of these people, but after being found out twice in a row by the Xuanfu that they were colluding with the enemy, the two Manors wouldn't remain indifferent. They would definitely think of a way to thoroughly investigate, so there was no need for him to meddle.
Almost half a month later, in late May, a flying boat more than seventy feet long arrived above the square station. After receiving permission, it stopped on the platform at the top of the mountain ridge.
After the cabin door opened, a group of people came out, and one of them carried a letter to the big platform.
Zhang Yu was cultivating at the moment when he received the letter sent in. Knowing that it was the Deputy Headmaster Tan Cong, he came out from the inner room and walked to the outer room.
Tan Cong was in his eighties or nineties, with a head full of silver hair and a medium build. This person's eyes were slightly small, and when he smiled, there were only two slits. The beard on his chin was thin and thick, like a silver frost, adding a bit of prestige.
Seeing him come out, he cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Xuanzheng, greetings." His voice was very unique, deep and slow, neither fast nor slow, making people have a good impression of him.
Zhang Yu stood there, put his hands together, raised his sleeves, and said, "Deputy Headmaster Tan, greetings."
At this time, Tan Cong pointed at the man and woman behind him and said, "These are my two disciples, Chang Gu and Shi Jiang."
The two people also came up to greet him.
Chang Gu was in his early twenties, wearing a white scholar's robe. His attitude was gentle and polite, and he looked a little shy.
Shi Jiang was in her thirties. Her hair was tied up in a single spiral bun, and she had some light makeup on her face. There was an eye-catching cinnabar dot on her forehead, and she was graceful and charming.
At this time, Tan Cong was also looking at Zhang Yu, and he couldn't help but marvel in his heart.
He had heard a lot of rumors about Zhang Yu before, especially those who had seen him. They all said that he had an immortal aura, and he was like a celestial being. Now that he saw him in person, he felt that Zhang Yu's appearance was otherworldly, and there seemed to be starlight flowing in his eyes. He hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at him too much.
After the two sides greeted each other outside, Zhang Yu invited Tan Cong and his two disciples into the courtyard.
Tan Cong walked in and saw that the interior was very simple, without any gorgeous decorations. He said, "This Zhang Xuanzheng is indeed like the rumors. Although he's a Xuanxiu, his conduct is like a true cultivator."
In fact, it wasn't that cultivators didn't care about enjoyment, especially Xuanxiu. Not to mention their long lifespan, they didn't have to work hard day and night like true cultivators, often going into seclusion for decades or even centuries. Therefore, in their long lives, enjoyment of sensual pleasures was also their favorite.
For example, Hongshan Sect's Sect Master Zhong Lie was a person who loved to enjoy. As far as he knew, those who didn't love these things were mostly people with pure Dao hearts and firm temperaments.
After making these judgments in his heart, he sat down and didn't say any unnecessary words. After some polite greetings, he cupped his hands and said, "I've disturbed Xuanzheng today because I have a serious matter to discuss with Xuanzheng."
Zhang Yu said, "Vice Sect Master Tan, please speak."
Tan Cong said, "Zhang Xuanzheng's news of Shuang Shuang Continent is already known to the two prefectures. This is a real worry for my Green Sun Empire. The war in the north is at a critical moment. After this war, I will send an army to the west. I need to set up various military bases and platforms in the Desolate Region. Because Shuang Shuang Continent came to ruin my arrangements, I need Xuanfu's help here." At the end, he cupped his hands.
Zhang Yu thought for a while, then said, "This matter involves the general situation of Green Sun Empire, the safety of millions of people. Xuanfu should help."
Tan Cong left his seat, stood up and bowed, said, "Thank you Xuanzheng."
Zhang Yu also stood up, sat down and bowed.
After sitting down again, Tan Cong stroked his silver frost beard, smiled and said, "Now that we've finished our business, Old Tan has another matter, I hope Xuanfu can help."
Zhang Yu didn't say anything, only looked at him.
Tan Cong said, "Zhang Xuanzheng knows that we are able to compete with the monster Taibo not only because of the Warships, creations, and profound weapons, but also because of the many armored soldiers.
After the recent battle with the Mythical God Tabo, we have discovered some flaws in the outer armor. Although we have been constantly improving it, we still need to test it on the battlefield every time to see if it is really useful. Often, we will have to pay with the lives of the soldiers, and the price is simply too high. Therefore, after some consideration, we would like to ask the Profound Palace cultivators to step forward and help us correct the defects.
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "What does the Tenki-in Hall want to do?"
Tan Cong said, "Actually, this isn't difficult. We hope that Xuanzheng will allow some cultivators to come to our Tenki-in Hall and fight with the armored cultivators. This way, we can see the flaws, improve them, and use them on the battlefield."
Shi Jiang, who was sitting next to him, also said, "Zhang Xuanzheng, we have invited many cultivators in the past. For example, the Great Mountain Sect and the Radiant Light Sect sent many disciples to our Tenki-in Hall to test the armor's power."
Zhang Yu looked at the two and said, "According to what the two of you said, you should have obtained what you wanted in the past few decades. Why are you here this time?"
Tan Cong said, "Zhang Xuanzheng, the cultivators who came here in the past were at most low-level cultivators. Middle-level cultivators are very rare, so we didn't obtain much. Moreover, our Tenki-in Hall has created a new armor in the past few years. Its power is so great that ordinary cultivators can't test its potential. Now that the war in the north is imminent, this armor may play a key role. Therefore, we have no choice but to ask for Xuanfu's help."
He gestured to Shi Jiang, who immediately took out a document and handed it to a servant to pass to Zhang Yu. Shi Jiang said, "We won't let Xuanfu work for free. We are willing to repay you."
Zhang Yu only glanced at it and put it aside. He thought for a moment and said, "The war is coming, and the enemies of Shuang Continent may come at any time. Every cultivator of Xuanfu has power and responsibility and can't leave without permission. Therefore, if the Tenki-in Hall wants to do this, you have to come to the Extraterritorial Realm."
Tan Cong thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "If Xuanzheng permits, we can establish a branch academy."
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "The Extraterritorial Realm is a land without a master. I won't interfere with what you want to do. As for Xuanxiu, as long as they don't violate Xuanfu's rules, I won't restrict them."
When Tan Cong heard this, he knew that Zhang Xuanzheng didn't oppose this matter. He cupped his hands and said solemnly, "Then many thanks, Xuanzheng."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly.
Tan Cong saw that the matter was settled, so he didn't stay any longer. After saying a few more words of thanks, he took his leave and returned to the flying boat with the group.
After the flying boat left the ground and flew for a distance, Shi Jiang looked outside and saw that they were far away from Fang Tai's station. She said, "Teacher, is this useful? Is it really possible that person will personally take action? "
Tan Cong stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry about this. Once those Xuanxiu are defeated one by one, for the sake of Xuanfu's reputation, how could that person not take action? “
Shi Jiang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Teacher, I've observed that Xuanzheng. His eyes are clear and his Qi is upright, like an immortal or a god. Moreover, he was bestowed the title by Xuanting, so he doesn't seem like someone who would be invaded by external demons."
Tan Cong sighed and said, "If Nightmares were to invade people's hearts, how could they be distinguished from external appearances? These cultivators possess great abilities. Once they fall into the demonic path, the deeper their cultivation, the greater the danger they pose. We have to grasp their methods and find a way to restrain them at crucial moments. Otherwise, who knows how many people will die when things get out of hand. "
Shi Jiang nodded silently. She knew that Tan Cong's family had been killed by a cultivator who had been tainted by Nightmares during the chaos in Yi Province. As a result, he had always taken this matter to heart and had always wanted to bring cultivators under his control. She didn't know whether this was right or wrong, but as his disciple, she could only follow behind.
