Above the sea of clouds, Daoist Yu Su did not return to her sect after the court meeting. Instead, she went to Shouzheng Palace to find Zhang Yu and said, "Xuanting has decided that Guo Zhen will step down and Xuanting will reprimand him.
However, this person has always been obstinate and self-opinionated. He has been in charge of the Yi Luo Continent for more than seventy years and is close to Chong Zhao, Zhong Weiwu and the others. If Daoist Gao takes over his position alone, I'm afraid there will be some twists and turns.
The people of the Yi Luo Continent have suffered too much in the past few decades and should not be implicated. Therefore, I advised that Daoist Zhang and Daoist Gao should go together. The chief administrator also agreed. "
Zhang Yu thought for a while. He understood that Xuanting wanted to use this to intimidate Guo Zhen and force him to take over the position of chief administrator. If he was unwilling, Xuanting would not mind taking him down directly.
However, this time, he could use this opportunity to sort out the Shouzheng Palace's encampment in the Yi Luo Continent.
He nodded and said, "Alright. When will Daoist Gao take over the position? I will go with you to the Yi Luo Continent."
At this time, Daoist Yu Hang, who was in charge of guarding the crack in Yujing, also received a letter from Daoist Zhong.
After reading it, he felt that it was a pity.
Guo Zhen was from the same sect as him and had achieved Dao before him. If Guo Zhen could succeed and retire, he would not lose the position of chief administrator. This way, their position would be increased.
However, he knew that his senior martial brother had always been very stubborn and was unwilling to listen to other people's opinions. Even if he had nothing to do, he would avoid meeting him as much as possible. In fact, he was not surprised that his senior martial brother ended up like this.
Instead, he realized that during the past few court meetings, the unruly cultivators were restrained by the rules, the Chong Ting Administrator reflected on his mistakes behind closed doors, and Daoist Gao was removed from his position. It could be said that other than the Head Administrator's faction, all the factions in the court were suppressed. Was this really a coincidence?
After getting rid of Captain Ming, Pei Gu finally left the sphere of influence of Qingyang Upper Continent and entered Yi Kong Upper Continent.
After traveling for more than half a summer, they stopped at an encampment on a floating hill in the Yi Kong Upper Continent.
Because Yikong Shangzhou was originally Yujing's boundary, they were considered to be in their own territory. All the people accompanying them finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, but a deep sense of exhaustion appeared in their minds.
As Daoist cultivators, they wouldn't be in such a state if they were just traveling. However, they didn't stop for a moment along the way. In addition, they had to be vigilant at all times to guard against the Qingyang Upper Continent. This caused them to be in a state of high tension. It was no wonder they were like this.
Although they had stopped, things were not over yet. They didn't know what would happen next, so they seized the opportunity to regulate their breathing.
After resting for half a day, they set off again and entered the southernmost Weizhou of the Yi Kong Upper Continent. They temporarily stayed in a palace in the province.
Pei Gu wanted to wait here for news from the rest of the people. He had previously arranged for several people to escort the Shuang Zhou Skill Book, all of them going in different directions from the Wilderness. As long as one of them successfully escaped the patrol and passed the message here, then this matter would be considered a success.
In fact, he had hidden a copy on him, just in case, but when Captain Ming arrived, he had no choice but to destroy it. Otherwise, if this thing was found, the other party would think that they were colluding with Shuang Zhou, and the other passersby would likely be subject to a large-scale search.
However, this wait lasted for five days, but no news came back.
Pei Gu couldn't hold it in anymore. He called someone and asked, "Go and check if there is a letter."
This was also what they had agreed before. If they couldn't find a letter or felt that it was unsafe, then they would use the simplest way to send a letter. When the time came, they just had to write an agreed secret code. They wouldn't be strictly investigated at all.
The disciple hesitated for a moment, but still left. After a long time, he turned around and said, "Dao Xiu, I've checked, but there is still no letter."
Pei Gu frowned and didn't say anything.
The disciple sighed and said, "It's a pity that Xuanxiu wasn't here at that time. Otherwise, we could ask at any time …"
Pei Gu glanced at him, and the disciple immediately shut up. He waved his hand, and the disciple tactfully left.
He patiently waited here for three more days, but there was still no news. At this time, he knew that there was no hope for this matter.
If these people hadn't encountered something, then they should have arrived. Now, it seemed that they were all blocked in the Qingyang Continent.
However, he still had a backup plan. After thinking about it, he decided to return to Yujing first. Thus, he ordered everyone to gather.
After waiting for everyone to arrive, he was about to board the flying boat. However, at this time, a light suddenly fell from the sky. Everyone's vision blurred, and then they saw a thin middle-aged Dao Xiu with an indifferent expression standing in front of them.
When Pei Gu saw him, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Martial Uncle Zheng. I didn't know Martial Uncle Zheng was coming. I didn't go out to meet you."
Dao Xiu said, "I was ordered to come and meet you. Where is the thing?"
Pei Gu whispered, "I arranged for several people to come, but they haven't arrived yet. They should have been intercepted halfway."
Dao Xiu looked at him and said, "Why didn't you write it down first?"
Pei Gu hurriedly said, "It seems that the thing can't be looked at directly by cultivators. I took a look at it before and destroyed one. It was already missing a part. Because there were no mortals accompanying me, I didn't dare to try again. I could only use the Shuangzhou Crystal Jade Token. The people of Shuangzhou made a few copies and took them away separately."
Dao Xiu said, "Where are the people of Shuangzhou?"
Pei Gu lowered his head and said, "It was difficult to travel on the road. I was afraid that the news would leak, so I had to kill them all."
Dao Xiu's voice was very calm, "In other words, you didn't bring anything out. You failed?"
When Pei Gu heard this, he didn't know why, but when he heard this, he panicked and hurriedly said, "No, Martial Uncle, there is one more. There is one more. I have been hiding it in the wilderness. I found a suitable place to bury it. I didn't bring it out because I didn't want to be intercepted."
He felt that Dao Xiu's eyes were fixed on him. He only felt cold sweat coming out of his body. He didn't dare to raise his head. After a while, a voice said, "Tell me the place."
His heart relaxed. His lips moved, and he told the specific location to the other party, and said, "But the Qingyang Upper Continent …" Before he finished, he felt that there was an empty space in front of him. When he looked up, he found that Dao Xiu had disappeared. He had to stop talking.
He wanted to remind Dao Xiu that the Qingyang Upper Continent was not so easy to come and go, but Dao Xiu was too fast. He didn't have time to say anything. He could only hope that the Qingyang Upper Continent would relax after blocking a few people, and Dao Xiu would be able to smoothly bring the thing out.
Dao Xiu flew all the way and entered the Qingyang Upper Continent. He had the ability to hide, and the wilderness was so big that it was impossible to monitor a fast flying cultivator at any time. Even if someone saw him, with his divine ability, they would only think that it was an illusion.
He avoided many sentries. After flying for a whole night, he finally arrived at the place where Pei Gu had hidden the crystal jade. He smoothly took it out. After that, he didn't stop for even a moment. He immediately flew back.
However, this time, he had only traveled a few thousand miles when he saw a bright star in the sky. Then, a ray of light fell and blocked his path.
He cautiously retreated and saw a Daoist in a green robe coming out.
He stared at the other party and asked, "Who are you?"
The Daoist looked at him and said, "Qingyang Xuanxiu, Wan Ming."
Dao Xiu asked in a deep voice, "Why are you blocking my way?"
Daoist Wan Ming looked at him and said, "Do you have the travel document of the Qingyang Upper Continent?"
Dao Xiu was silent. He thought that the other party would use various reasons to target him, but he didn't expect to be asked about this. He didn't care about this.
As a Daoist cultivator, he could come and go freely. Why should he follow the rules of the mortal world?
However, he now realized that this was a big oversight. The other party used this excuse to block him here openly. There was no need to ask anything else.
This time, he had to ensure that he returned the item. He couldn't be detained here. Hence, he bowed and said, "I'm Zheng Xiang. I would like to learn from you."
Daoist Wan Ming also raised his hand and bowed. When he was bowing, he had a thought and left a message on the Great Way Xuan Chapter to ask about Zheng Xiang. He also listed a certain amount of skills.
After a while, there were more replies. He scanned with his consciousness and roughly understood the person's origin.
Zheng Xiang was a real Daoist cultivator of the Lingmiao Mysterious Realm in the Yiyue Upper Continent. He was good at dodging and teleporting. Not only that, he was also good at controlling a flying sword.
After a few breaths, more and more information about Zheng Xiang appeared. After leaving a message, although it was only a general idea, it was enough for him!
Yiluo Upper Continent, Xuanfu, Yantai.
This was the highest point in the entire Yiluo Xuanfu. The Twin Water Yous were on the left and right, and the Three Mountain Guards were on the side. Xuan Shou Guo Zhen was currently standing on the stage.
He was tall and sturdy, with a thick white beard under his chin. He achieved Daoism when his lifespan was nearing its end. However, after he achieved Xuan Zun, he didn't recover his youthful appearance. He had always maintained the appearance of an elder.
At this moment, many of his disciples gathered below him. They had all received the imperial order from Xuanting to remove Guo Zhen from his position.
One of the disciples said angrily, "Master, how can Xuanting treat you so harshly? Master has guarded the Yiluo Upper Continent for more than seventy years. He worked hard to keep the continent from falling. This time, not only did he not contribute, he even issued an imperial order to punish him and take away his position. Xuanting is really unfair! Unfair! "
The rest of the disciples also voiced out one after another, complaining for their master.
Guo Zhen snorted and said, "Is Xuanting's decision something you can comment on? All of you, shut up! "
All the voices below immediately quieted down.
Guo Zhen said, "Since Xuanting said that I'm wrong, then I'll take it that I'm wrong. If you feel that it's wrong, then all of you should practice your Daoist techniques well. When you become Xuan Zun, then you can come and complain about the injustice for me. It's not your turn to speak now."
All the disciples immediately quieted down and didn't say anything.
After Guo Zhen reprimanded the disciples, he slowly looked at the sky and said in a deep voice, "It's here."
The crowd of disciples suddenly heard a rumbling sound and raised their heads to look, only to see a flash in the sky. It was as if the sky had suddenly melted and created two gigantic holes. From within the holes, the sound of faintly discernible immortal spirits and the light of the clouds shone through. After a short moment, two rays of spiritual light spilled out from within the holes. Like a heavenly waterfall, they simultaneously rushed towards the Profound Palace's high platform!
