Chapter 1583 - 424: Chaotic Tactics, Giving You a Big Out (10k)
Countless people believe this unequivocally.If right now a powerful figure from the court were to openly battle the True Dragon, placing the True Dragon in opposition to the court, regardless of the outcome, the nation's fortune would shudder thrice.
This has really become troublesome...
It's not at all a question of strength; even now it's already quite problematic, with no easy choices.
...
Yu Ziqing steadily advanced with his people; he was already prepared to respond.
If a powerful figure wants to make a move, then they will fight. The village chief personally came along, clearly not reassured, but more or less, there is certainly some intent to fight.
Cece certainly wouldn't proactively bring the village chief along, nor even inquire.
If you're willing to fight, then fight.
He wanted to establish his power in one go; it wasn't just the powerful who were with him, but also a large and formidable force.
He didn't lead his people in a hurried march to the Capital City of the Immovable Immortal Dynasty; instead, he steadily exerted pressure, giving those within time to react.
If it were earlier, Yu Ziqing might have wasted a lot of time slowly investigating what this matter is about.
Then he would trace clues from the lowest level, tracking from small fry all the way up to high-ranking officials, killing them one by one.
Now, Yu Ziqing doesn't want to waste such time; let the others reveal the truth themselves.
"Yang, is it okay for you to appear directly like this?"
"No problem, after all, I've been unable to find Jiu Nian recently. Now that you've come, let's seize the opportunity to handle some matters together.
Have you considered to what extent you want to accomplish things?
Do you just want to establish your power? Do you want bloodshed? Or do you want to overthrow the Immovable Immortal Dynasty? "
"People teach people, words are useless, events teach people, once to the heart."
"Understood."
The Ghost Domain is still steadily advancing, far slower than a Cultivator's Flying Escape, the destination clear, giving adequate time for the other side.
Since no one has come to stop them, Yu Ziqing knows the internal factional division within the Immovable Immortal Dynasty is far more serious than anticipated.
Moreover, having been accustomed to the circumstances on the Four Divine Dynasties side, Yu Ziqing more or less defaulted to the Emperor's might here.
Now it seems, the Emperor of the Immovable Immortal Dynasty has far less control and mastery over the court.
Thinking carefully, it's not too surprising.
This Immortal Dynasty, although similar to the Divine Dynasty, has things akin to the Divine Dynasty's power and national fortune force.
Yet, as soon as Yu Ziqing arrived, he noticed that both the national fortune and the Divine Dynasty-like power were fundamentally different from Dadui.
He had previously speculated whether the remaining four characters outside the Four Divine Dynasties were all on this Immovable Continent.
Later, upon realizing there's only the Immovable Immortal Dynasty here, he suspected it was carrying just one of them.
Upon truly arriving, Yu Ziqing completely confirmed, not a single one was here.
This fundamentally distinguished it from the Divine Dynasty.
The Emperor's might is insufficient, the force isn't enough to crush others, leading to the current situation, which is understandable.
...
Jixia Academy, a few elders sit together around a small charcoal stove.
Ji Shen leisurely pours tea, drinks tea; Wanjun sits on the other side, her face drawn.
One of the elder put down his teacup and spoke.
"Sacrificial Officer, the situation hasn't reached the point of no return yet.
Furthermore, the Demon Emperor is outside watching the festivities, and many Demon Kings are itching to move.
We absolutely must not engage them in battle; fighting would leave no room for maneuver.
If that moment comes, internal and external crises will erupt together, plunging the Immortal Dynasty into irreparable chaos."
"Is this something our Academy can decide?" Ji Shen replied without any expression.
The elders couldn't refute, but they knew Ji Shen was the only one among them to have met directly and potentially negotiate, which is why they came to ask his opinion.
Ji Shen let out a cold laugh.
"You each have your own forces behind you, I don't care.
But with your seats in the Academy, you must stand from the Academy's perspective.
I just told you earlier, since that person appeared, the Endless Hungry Ghosts emerged.
Then the True Dragon appeared, it's no longer something that can be solved with mere words.
Just send the heads of those fools stirring this trouble and apologize properly.
That might stop at this opportunity.
Otherwise, you'd bet that once they reach the Capital City, they'd dare make a move.
Then watch, when those hindering them come, whether they'd dare kill.
Just watch, as long as the True Dragon is there, would the Demon Emperor rally the flag and call?
Look if the various demons under heaven would take this opportunity to follow the True Dragon and invade the Immortal Dynasty.
At that time, I'd really like to see the court's group of scheming opportunists get together for once."
Ji Shen spoke rigidly, expressionless at first, his tone growing more eerie, letting out a cold laugh as he continued.
"Indeed, I'd really like to see if, when killing the Emperor of the Zhuge family, they'd fight desperately to save him."
The more Ji Shen spoke, the bolder he became, with the elders simply tuning out the latter part.
In truth, they already understood the outcome internally.
Wholehearted unity, working together to resist, simply won't happen.
Furthermore, within Jixia Academy, scholars oblivious to the truth are already debating.
Merely due to the True Dragon's appearance, aligning with the other side, approaching the Capital City.
There's already talk among scholars saying that the court's unreasonableness brought forth the True Dragon's reaction.
Because the court allowed the Demon Kings into the Immortal Dynasty's territory, hunting the essentially tragic Hungry Ghosts, and so on.
The wrath of heaven and resentment of people, even the True Dragon couldn't stand it, directly taking sides.
