When Daoist Ming Shan heard Zhang Yu's question, he nodded and admitted, "There is indeed one more thing. This time, Head Xuan asked me to pass a message to Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu could guess a little about this, he nodded and said, "Please speak."
Daoist Ming Shan said, "This time Xuan Zheng defeated Bai Xiu in the battle. Although he also established a proper book of battle and no one can accuse Xuan Zheng of anything wrong, but some things cannot be reasoned with. Head Xuan asked me to inform Xuan Zheng that if he comes down to have dealings with Xuanting or people from other continents, when it comes to certain choices, he needs to be careful. "
Zhang Yu thought carefully, he immediately understood the meaning.
He defeated Bai Xiu fair and square, with the book battle as proof, no one can blame him, but Bai Xiu's teacher, Bai Xiu's fellow disciples may not really let it go, reasoning is reasoning, but relationships are relationships.
Once human relationships were involved, especially when one party held more power than the other, they might not be able to reason with you.
He knew this was Head Xuan's kind reminder, he said, "Please thank Head Xuan on my behalf."
Daoist Ming Shan nodded, he stood up, bowed and said, "Since I have passed the message, I should take my leave."
Zhang Yu stood up and said, "Let me send you off."
He sent Daoist Ming Shan to the door, the latter advised him to stop, he then waved his horsetail whisk and left with the wind.
After Zhang Yu returned, he thought, including the records of Bai Xiu's past battles that Head Xuan Zhu sent, this should be the second time Head Xuan Zhu expressed his goodwill.
But he thought of something, the last Head Xuan Zhu was sixty to seventy years, counting now, it was almost time, maybe Head Xuan Zhu was making arrangements for after he left his position.
As for the threats from above, he did not need to worry, under the restrictions of Xuanting's rules, Ting Zhi could not do whatever he wanted.
Moreover, the other party could not reach here, otherwise, he would not have to rely on Bai Xiu.
What he needed to be wary of was that the people around this person would not be content, but as long as it was not completely above the fourth chapter of the book, then there was nothing to be afraid of.
But rather than hoping that the other party's external strength was not as good as his own, it was better to think of ways to improve himself.
Because the Profound Palace did not have any records of the cultivation method to advance in the Profound Cultivation Realm, he had originally been thinking about what to do next. But now, he vaguely had a direction.
Just as Zhang Yu sent Daoist Ming Shan away, Wei Xueling came to a hall on the other side of the Academy, he said to an old man in ancient robes, "Ming Xueling, I heard that Zhang Xuanzheng returned to the academy, I returned to the academy, I wonder what he will be doing this time …."
Ming Xueling glanced at him and said, "What are you afraid of? Fan Shang and Fei Liao were caught because they were communicating with Shuangzhou. You did not do anything of the sort, and you are not a Master Craftsman. Why do you need to worry about nothing?"
Wei Xueling said, "I am not worried about this, I am just afraid that Zhang Xuanzheng's main goal is something else. Did Ming Xueling not notice? I'm wondering if this will involve us. "
Ming Xueling said in a low voice, "Now that the road to the north is about to be opened, what do you think?"
"What?"
When Wei Xueling heard him suddenly change the topic, he did not understand.
Ming Xueling said, "Our Academy was originally set up for the Guangye Camp. Over the past few years, the Qingyang Tenki-in Hall has always wanted to merge our academy with them, and they have also tried to rope in a few Master Craftsmen.
Originally, the two sides were blocked, and the Yujing could not give us much support. I thought that for the sake of the Academy's future, it would be appropriate for the two sides to cooperate. That is why I have been trying to persuade them, but those Master Craftsmen were adamant. Now, it seems that this is not a bad thing. "
Wei Xueling thought for a while, then suddenly realized something and nodded subconsciously.
Ming Xueling said, "The matter you are talking about has nothing to do with our academy. Have we ever gotten involved? No, we have at most exchanged some skills, which is nothing. That is why we will continue to stand on the side and watch. If that Zhang Xuanzheng fails, then we will just lean in. If that side fails, then we will still need our help. "
Wei Xueling put on a look of sincere admiration and said, "Ming Xueling is indeed a senior. You can see through things. This junior has learned a lot."
Ming Xueling nodded repeatedly.
Wei Xueling sat for a while longer, then bid farewell and left.
After returning to his study, he immediately called for his trusted aide and roughly repeated Ming Xueling's words. He said, "What do you think of this matter?"
The aide thought for a while and said, "Xueling, I think it makes some sense."
Wei Xueling shook his head and looked outside. He walked to the center of the hall and pressed a button on a jade board. Immediately, a silver-white curtain of light descended around them, isolating them from all sound and light.
He then went to the inner room and took out a file. He lowered his voice and said, "Find a way to give this to Zhang Xuanzheng. Remember, don't let anyone see it."
The aide looked at the file and said in puzzlement, "Xueling, this is …"
Wei Xueling said, "This is some information I have secretly collected about the other side. Zhang Xuanzheng should be interested."
The aide was shocked. "Xueling, didn't you and Ming Xueling agree …"
Wei Xueling said disdainfully, "Who agreed with him? That old thing of his should've been thrown away a long time ago. "He threw the file on the table and said fiercely," I've been in Mizar Academy for more than thirty years, but even with my abilities, I'm still a student after all these years. Do you know why? "
The aide was puzzled. "Why?"
"Because there's no chance!"
Wei Xueling clenched his teeth. His usual gentle demeanor was nowhere to be seen. "If I were to accumulate experience step by step, I might be able to reach the position of vice-rector in another twenty or thirty years. Rector, don't even think about it! We won't make a mistake if we don't make a choice at this time, but this is also an opportunity! As long as we seize it, we'll be able to soar into the sky! "
The aide came back to his senses and looked at the file. He said in a low voice, "Xueling, are you sure you want to bet on Zhang Xuanzheng this time?"
Wei Xueling said, "We have to bet even if we don't want to. We have no other choice apart from him. Do they need us? They don't! Moreover, if we bet on them, wouldn't all the information I've collected over the years be wasted? Only Zhang Xuanzheng is worthy of our bet. "
The aide was still a bit worried. "But what if …"
Wei Xueling shook his head and said, "Don't think too much. There's no such thing as a sure thing. Just do as I say. "
Under his urging, the aide no longer hesitated. He carefully picked up the file and walked out.
Wei Xueling walked to the window and watched as the aide left.
He dared to bet on Zhang Yu not only because of the reasons he said, but also because he had been dealing with cultivators all these years. He knew better than anyone else in the academy the importance of Master Bai Xiu.
He believed that this contest ultimately came down to who had more power in their hands. Even Bai Xiu had been defeated by Zhang Yu. What else did the other side have to compete with him?
In any case, he couldn't see through it, so he might as well take his side early.
Soon, the next day arrived. Zhang Yu came out of the quiet room and looked at the two files on the table. He called Li Qinghe over and asked him about it.
Li Qinghe told him that one of the files was brought back by someone who asked Qing Shu to bring it back, and the other was handed to him when he went out in the morning.
After Zhang Yu asked him to leave, he opened it and saw the owners of the two files. One was Wei Xueling from the academy, and the other was also from the academy. The other was Ming Xueling, whom he had never dealt with before.
Interestingly, he didn't know if the two of them had an agreement. Not only did they send the files at about the same time, but they also said the same thing.
His eyes flashed slightly, and he thought, "If what is said is true, then we can detain this person first. Maybe we can open a gap."
On the outer sea of the Qingyang Upper Continent, after Tang Feng vented his anger that day, he drifted on the sea in a daze for a while. However, he suddenly remembered the words of care that Bai Xiu had said when he came out.
After he came to his senses, he immediately headed southeast. Based on the words in his memory, he finally found a beautiful island.
He landed here and looked at the mountain ridge. There was a hut between the plants. He quickly walked over and entered the hut.
Although the hut didn't look big from the outside, it was quite spacious inside, and it was filled with the fragrance of bamboo.
When he saw a praying mat in the middle, his face couldn't help but reveal a sad expression. He lowered his body and respectfully bowed towards it. Then, he stood up and moved the praying mat away. He removed the cover at the bottom, revealing a staircase that led downwards.
He straightened his clothes and walked down. He walked along the passage and finally arrived in front of an altar.
On the altar, there was a Longevity Lamp and Tianyi Divine Incense. In the middle, there was a memorial tablet, which was protected by a layer of bright light.
Although Tang Feng could not see the specific handwriting on it, he knew who it was. He immediately took a few steps forward and bowed a few times. He then took three incense sticks from the side of the incense drawer and lightly blew on them before lighting them up. Then, he raised his head and silently chanted:
"Master Ancestor, teacher was unfortunately defeated in the battle with Zhang Yu and died. Now, there is no corpse left. I beg Master Ancestor to uphold justice." As he spoke, he bowed again.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was no response. In the end, he could only return the way he came with a sense of loss.
However, he didn't realize that there was a shadow following behind him in the underground palace. It was just that this shadow was also slowly drifting away. It seemed that it wouldn't take long for it to completely disappear. Just as he was about to walk out of the underground palace, the shadow flashed and attached itself to his "Lightless Flying Blade".
He didn't notice this at all. After arriving outside, he was unwilling to leave just like that. Therefore, after tidying up the hut for a while, he simply prepared to stay here for a long time. He thought that when the time came to offer incense, he might be able to get a response from the Master Ancestor.
