After Chang 'er left, Daoist Cao took out a glossy jade bead from his astral bag. There seemed to be a drop of silver flowing inside, and it was especially dazzling under the sunlight.
This item was requested from the higher-ups, and it had no offensive or destructive properties. However, once it was thrown into the Heavenly Gate, it could disrupt the operation of the Heavenly Gate.
Those who passed through the Heavenly Gate could accurately go from one end to the other because of the restriction of magic power. The most important thing inside was to rely on the ability of the Xuan Zun.
The power inside always followed a certain order, but if a strong external force was thrown in, it would definitely cause a riot. Even if the people who entered didn't die, they would be sent to an unknown place by the turbulence.
If they could throw this item in when Zhang Yu passed through the Heavenly Gate, then their goal would be achieved, and they wouldn't have to fight with Zhang Yu head-on.
The most difficult part here was to grasp the timing. This was because the time of throwing the bead had to be close to the time when the flying ship entered the Heavenly Gate. It couldn't be earlier or later, so it had to be arranged properly.
He called out, and a creator with a metal bar embedded in his chin walked over. He cupped his fists and said, "Teacher Cao, please give your orders."
Daoist Cao handed the jade bead over and said, "Take this and do as we agreed. Also, take this with you. "He took off a jade pendant from his body and handed it over.
This jade pendant was also requested by him. Cultivators had sharp senses, and if there were outsiders who wanted to harm them, they would be alerted. This item was used to confuse their senses.
Solemnly, the creator took it, then cupped his fists and walked out.
A young cultivator standing at the side looked at the creator who left and said, "Teacher Cao, you're giving such an important task to a creator?"
Daoist Cao said indifferently, "So what if I don't? Are you willing to go?
The young cultivator laughed dryly.
Daoist Cao said, "Every disciple's life is precious. I won't let them lose their lives for something that I'm not sure can be completed. This way, no matter how many people there are, they can't afford to die. However, a creator doesn't matter."
The young cultivator thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Cao, do you think that after we eliminate Xuan Fa, the remaining void should be filled by creations?"
Daoist Cao said, "What's wrong with that? As long as we can suppress the creations and limit their growth, we will be able to use them well.
You're right. In the past, it was a little difficult for us to abolish the Xuan method because the middle and lower levels couldn't do without Xuanxiu. But now that we have creations, Xuanxiu's Xuan method isn't that important anymore. Moreover, it won't compete with us for external objects of cultivation. They will be very good substitutes. "
At this time, Zhang Yu had already led everyone into the white boat. After sitting down in the main cabin, he steered the white boat slowly away from the berth and flew out of the Earth Star.
At this moment, several airships also took off from the rooftop at the same time and followed them. But not long after, they were stopped by the airships of the Military Affairs Department.
Xu Chengtong glanced at them and said, "Patrol Officer, it looks like the Military Affairs Department made a move."
Zhang Yu's heart moved slightly and he asked, "In the past, did the Military Affairs Department protect the cultivators who obtained the 'Fate Law'?"
Xu Chengtong said, "I don't know about this."
At this time, the young man standing next to An Zhizhi in the cabin boldly said, "Never." After saying that, he saw everyone's eyes fall on him and couldn't help but feel nervous.
Zhang Yu looked over and said, "Are you saying that this has never happened before?"
The young man mustered up his courage and said, "Yes, in the past, the competition for the 'Fate Law' was tacitly allowed by Xuan Zun, so the Military Affairs Department didn't care about it."
Zhang Yu said, "You should be from the Tianji Workshop, right? How do you know about this?"
The young man answered honestly, "Because my grandfather was a cultivator. I've always wanted to cultivate in the past, but I didn't have the talent to cultivate. My family didn't have any connections, so I couldn't pass the exam to become an official, so I could only become a craftsman."
Zhang Yu asked, "What's your name?"
The young man said, "My original name was Wei San, but Shaolang changed my name to 'Wei Shan'."
At this time, Qing Shu said, "Sir, could it be that the Military Affairs Department did this because of your identity?"
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Maybe."
Just now, he felt that the attitude of the Military Affairs Department's flying boats was very tough. They were almost forcing the cultivators to leave, but in reality, even if the Military Affairs Department wanted to please him, they didn't have to do so.
This was because the Military Affairs Department and the cultivators on Earth Star didn't have a subordinate relationship, but a cooperative relationship. Therefore, they only needed to send a flying boat to escort them and express their attitude, and the cultivators naturally wouldn't force them.
However, directly driving them away was such a rough and crude style that it didn't seem like the Military Affairs Department's style.
Because no one stopped them, the white boat quickly broke through the atmosphere and headed towards the Heavenly Gate near Heaven City. The journey was very smooth, but just as they were approaching the Heavenly Gate, a flying boat from the Military Affairs Department suddenly came in this direction and quickly approached them.
However, this was the passage of the Military Affairs Department's Heavenly Gate, so it seemed very normal for a flying boat from the Military Affairs Department to come and go.
Zhang Yu looked at the flying boat for a while, then retracted his gaze and continued to head towards the Heavenly Gate. Just as the white boat was about to enter the Heavenly Gate, he had a thought and slowed down a little.
Meanwhile, the flying boat at the side didn't stop at all, and directly went through the Heavenly Gate.
Qing Shu felt a trace of abnormality, and asked tentatively, "Sir?"
Zhang Yu didn't answer, but looked back and saw a light flash in the distance. In just a few breaths, it arrived in front of the flying boat, and then a cultivator appeared. He bowed to the white boat and said loudly, "I'm Huang Zhixing, is Governor Zhang here? I'd like to see you. "
Zhang Yu's thought changed, and a part of the white boat's body melted. He said, "Fellow Daoist, come up and talk."
Huang Zhixing boarded the flying boat, then bowed to him again and said, "Governor Zhang, greetings." He then bowed to Xu Chengtong and said, "Fellow Daoist, greetings."
Zhang Yu nodded in return and said, "Fellow Daoist Huang, why are you here?"
Huang Zhixing said, "I heard that Governor Zhang obtained a seal during the Dao Preaching Conference?"
Zhang Yu said, "That's right."
Huang Zhixing sighed, then looked up and said, "I won't hide it from Governor Zhang, I'm the other person rumored to have obtained this seal."
Zhang Yu couldn't help but look at him.
Huang Zhixing smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that many people have been watching me these days, and I can't settle down to comprehend it at all. This thing is really troublesome." He gritted his teeth and said, "But if I give it away just like that, those people will benefit for nothing, and I'm not willing to accept it. After thinking about it, I'd rather entrust this to Governor Zhang …"
Xu Chengtong sneered and said, "Fellow Daoist Huang, do you think that since Governor Zhang has already obtained a seal, it doesn't matter if he bears this matter for Fellow Daoist?"
Huang Zhixing hurriedly said, "I definitely don't mean that. If we're talking about selfish motives, I do indeed have them, but I feel that it's really hard for others to obtain this seal. I'll only be willing if Governor Zhang obtains this seal."
Zhang Yu said, "Fellow Daoist Huang, you're quite frank. If it's just that this seal is Fellow Daoist Huang's opportunity, I won't take it."
Huang Zhiping hurriedly said, "But if I give it to Governor Zhang, won't it mean that Governor Zhang has obtained the law of fate?"
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "Since the law of fate can be transferred, then is it fate or a person's decision?"
Huang Zhiping fell silent when he heard this. Of course, he could refute this, but he already understood that Zhang Yu didn't intend to accept this item, so there was no point in arguing about this. He raised his hand and bowed, saying, "I've been presumptuous."
Zhang Yu said at this time, "We can be considered to be on the same path, so it's fate that brought us together. If Fellow Daoist Huang wants to leave this place, then I can take Fellow Daoist Huang out of here."
Huang Zhiping was stunned for a moment, and then he revealed a grateful and joyful expression. He bowed deeply and said sincerely, "Thank you, Governor Zhang!"
Zhang Yu nodded and didn't say anything else. With a thought, he closed the cabin door and drove the flying ship to pass through the Heaven Gate.
Not long after he left, the news reached Daoist Cao, who frowned and said, "You didn't succeed?"
Chang You said, "An accident occurred. Originally, that person was about to enter the Heaven Gate with the flying ship we sent, but at this time, a cultivator called out to him."
Daoist Cao frowned and said, "Who is this person? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on those cultivators and not let them get in the way? "
Chang You said, "We were afraid of arousing that person's suspicion, so we asked the people from the Military Affairs Department to make a move. However, that cultivator was another fated person at the Dao Conference, so those people from the Military Affairs Department had no reason to stop him. Moreover, this person's escape technique is amazing, so they missed him."
At this point, he was also very vexed and said, "If it wasn't for this person, we might have already succeeded!"
Daoist Cao thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Not necessarily. It looks like a coincidence, but is it really a coincidence?"
Chang You was stunned. He pondered for a moment and said, "Master Cao, you're saying … that person has already noticed something? But we've already confused his senses. "
Daoist Cao said, "Although cultivators rely on their senses, not everyone completely relies on them. We might as well overestimate this person."
Chang You thought for a moment and said in agreement, "Master Cao, you're wise."
Daoist Cao looked outside and said indifferently, "Although it's a pity that we didn't succeed this time, we didn't expose ourselves. We can wait for the next opportunity. Even if he's skilled and can avoid it once or twice, as long as he hasn't reached the Upper Realm, there will always be times when he'll be careless."
At this moment, Zhang Yu's white ship had already passed through the other side of the Heaven Gate. However, just as it landed in the void, it saw several flying ships waiting there.
In front of these flying ships stood a spirited cultivator dressed in dark green Daoist robes. He cupped his hands in the direction of the white ship and said loudly, "Is Patrol Officer Zhang here? I'm Chi Liyang, and I've been entrusted by my fellow Daoists to wait here for Patrol Officer Zhang! "
