Chen Yi chuckled helplessly: "Alright, alright, whatever you say."

"Just stay put and don't let them notice anything."

The Little Jade Sword circled around, as if it had won a battle, and gently settled on Xia Wanwan's wrist, no longer moving.

Humph, if you dare abandon me again, I'll die right in front of you!

Looking at the motionless Little Jade Sword, Chen Taiping and Xia Wanwan exchanged glances, both noticing the surprise in each other's eyes.

"It, I always felt it's not ordinary." Xia Wanwan reached out to stroke the Little Jade Sword, and said:

"When Yi Er gave it to me, I only thought of it as a keepsake from him, until the time I encountered the assassination..."

"Don't overthink it."

Chen Taiping thought of the small wooden sword that the young Daoist from the Grand Void Sect had given him earlier, pondering:

"Perhaps Yi Er originally intended for you to use it for self-defense."

"Yes, if I'd known it was so sentient, I wouldn't have accepted it back then. Maybe if it stayed with Yi Er, it could help him."

"Don't say such foolish things; Yi Er's belongings are yours too. Take it if it's given to you."

"How could I possibly..."

Chen Yi listened for a while longer, looked at the Black Ridge County below and the Wu An Army Camp not far away, then without hesitation, flashed towards the north.

As long as his parents are fine, his mind could rest a bit easier.

Now it's time for him to handle serious matters!

...

North of Beixiong Pass, in the forests extending tens of thousands of miles.

Due to the appearance of a faint crimson shadow, this place had long been plowed deep by tens of thousands of demons led by several Great Demon Kings from the Demon Court.

Even the rocks and trees were razed, with broken stones and timber everywhere, and the snow-covered soil churned up, stretching nearly a thousand miles.

Yet despite such meticulous searching, the Demon Court still hadn't found those "scoundrels" hiding here.

This provoked the Great Demon Kings to roar repeatedly, sending the famous Thirty-Six Generals of the Demon Court to continue the hunt.

"Roar—find them!"

The roar echoed tens of thousands of miles, stirring chaos among the demons within the Ten Thousand Mountains, prompting more demons to emerge.

"Tsk tsk tsk, these Great Demons are truly relentless, searching nonstop for two days,"

"Brother Gu Ying, why not just make a move?" The Earth Monk in monk's robes grinned sidelong, looking at the silent masked man.

Zhou Guanwu glanced at him, speaking coldly: "The Demon Court has Great Powers; our interference would only mess things up."

"Brother Guanwu, why don't you tell us about the Great Powers in the Demon Court?" The Earth Monk's eyes glinted with amusement:

"You were once quite close with the Fengyue Demon Emperor... surely you learned a lot of secrets from her?"

Zhou Guanwu's eyes turned cold, his face stern as he glared at him: "Earth Monk, that's not funny at all!"

"Hey hey hey, don't get angry, even if you don't say it, this humble monk knows some Demon Court secrets."

The Earth Monk waved his hand repeatedly: "That Fengyue Demon Emperor is the most powerful demon left by the Demon Court on the Tianyuan Continent, far exceeding Brother Gu Ying in cultivation."

"And those few palaces deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains, they've survived since the dark ages, becoming old foxes."

"It's just a pity they're too stubborn. Otherwise, if they joined us, why would we fear failing to conquer the entire Wei Dynasty to the south?"

"What do you think? Brother Gu Ying?"

The masked man seated in a corner of the underground cave mansion, upon hearing this, only moved his emotionless eyes, turning to Chen Yuan on the other side to say:

"For this 'Jing Tian' gathering, you all must clearly understand the importance of this mission. Although the 'General' hasn't explicitly said it, if things go awry, we will all be punished!"

"Just like the few matches in this gathering, Chen Yuan won one and lost two, Guanwu lost three, and the Earth Monk won three."

"Such results are the bottom of the rankings among various Lotus Platforms, and if the Tianyuan Continent's plans fail again... we'll have no face left in the entire 'Jing Tian'!"

The Earth Monk's smile faded, his previous elation from being praised by the 'General' subsiding.

Gu Ying is right.

Him winning three matches alone is nothing significant, it only earns a little reward from the "Pure Heaven".

If their plans on the Tianyuan Continent fail, the "General" will similarly show no mercy.

When that time comes, Gu Ying, who just temporarily joined as "chief" level, won't be punished, Chen Yuan, who was just accepted as a disciple by the "General", won't be punished, so the ones to be punished would be others...

——He and Zhou Guanwu!

"Brother Gu Ying, what do you plan to do next?"

"Now that our identities in the Wei Dynasty have been exposed, to continue with the plan, we need to assume new identities and infiltrate Kyoto Prefecture again. If we are discovered again or if those people detect our plot, I'm afraid..."

Gu Ying raised his hand, interrupting: "Identity is not necessary, for us, just changing our appearance can give us a new identity."

"What's important is how to get things back on track!"

Gu Ying paused, looking into the eyes of the expressionless Zhou Guanwu, and asked:

"This plan was originally devised by the 'Old Plotter', but he is now dead, so only you know his plans best, Guanwu."

"Tell us, what do we need to do?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Guanwu finally glanced at the Earth Monk and snorted: "Earlier, your decisive actions ensured that the Great Master and the others did not extract our plans from the mouth of the 'Old Plotter'.

"So... the impact is not significant?" Gu Ying pondered.

"Not too big, not too small." Zhou Guanwu recounted in a plain tone:

"According to the 'Old Plotter's' strategy, it was meant to wrap up our plans on the Tianyuan Continent."

"As long as the Wei Dynasty can't quickly sever all Buddhist connections, losing some merit power won't affect much."

"But the failure of the operation in the Heavenly Prison, and Prince Kong being alive, poses a hidden threat to us."

"He is the one who introduced Buddhism into the Wei Dynasty, and was also the first abbot of the Dakong Temple, having studied the 'Dakong Prajna Sutra'. If he finds an opportunity to act at the last moment..."

Before he could finish, Gu Ying already understood his implication.

"Then he must die!"

Zhou Guanwu nodded, saying: "Aside from him, Emperor Wei, Nine Thousand Years, the Great Master and Huangshan Taoist are the second threat."

"Moreover, based on my understanding of them, after our exposure, they will surely summon additional Divine Power Realm great powers to guard Kyoto Prefecture."

"By then, we will be facing eight to ten Divine Power Realm great powers, among whom are likely some like the Great Master with four Divine Skill powers."

The Earth Monk grimaced, "That many?"

"Apart from the four in Kyoto Prefecture, there are also Chen Yi and Lu Xiaofeng..." Zhou Guanwu paused and said:

"Eight great powers is the minimum number I estimate!"

Gu Ying slightly nodded, signaling the Earth Monk to keep quiet, and then spoke:

"Guanwu's speculation is correct. With so many Divine Power Realm great powers gathered within Kyoto Prefecture, even if we succeed in our plan, the losses would be severe."

"If the place is controlled by them... Guanwu, share your plans."

He knew Zhou Guanwu could deduce this and had prepared for the worst-case scenario, he certainly had solutions.

Zhou Guanwu nonchalantly said: "The State Preceptor from the West Continent Buddha Country must be won over, this is one!"

"Secondly, join hands with the Demon Court!"

The Earth Monk's expression changed suddenly, and he said with a sinister look: "It may be feasible to ally with the Demon Court, but the State Preceptor of the Buddha Country... must die!"

"Ha!" Zhou Guanwu coldly laughed, not bothering to give him another glance, "I've said everything, it's up to you whether to listen or not."

"Now don't interfere with the conversation between me and my nephew!"

After finishing, he retreated to one side and beckoned Chen Yuan over: "Didn't you have many questions you wanted to ask? Come with me."

Chen Yuan stood up, placed his hand on the Mighty Blade, and followed him to the other side of the Underground Cave Mansion, leaving only Gu Ying and the Earth Monk.

The Earth Monk looked angry, glaring viciously at Zhou Guanwu, but instinctively did not show any malice towards Chen Yuan.

After all, Chen Yuan now was no longer a newcomer entering the "Pure Heaven", but a disciple accepted personally by the "General", just waiting for their plan to succeed, he would be taken to train within the "Pure Heaven".

"Brother Gu Ying, you wouldn't seriously listen to what Brother Guanwu said, would you?"

"It wouldn't hurt to..."
