Protagonist:
Yu Zhangsheng
The Five Elders thought it made sense, so they stopped asking further.
Chen Xueqing's situation was likely the same.
"Alright, I'll arrange people to welcome you and wash away the dust, then arrange personnel to count your harvest."
Chen Xueqing and the other two were each taken to different places to be settled.
Yu Zhangsheng could finally rest for a while.
After this period of baptism, he was under immense pressure.
Moreover, having to face Lin Tianhao's terrifying pursuit at any time made Yu Zhangsheng never dare to be careless.
Fortunately, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief for the moment.
Future troubles could be dealt with later.
After simply washing himself, Yu Zhangsheng also enjoyed the food sent from Hai Shou Tian Dao.
Then he took a nice bath.
After some rest and recuperation, he felt refreshed and invigorated.
After putting on his clothes, Yu Zhangsheng immediately walked out of the room.
Outside the house, Chen Xueqing and Wang Mie were discussing something unknown; seeing this, Yu Zhangsheng immediately went over.
"Hehe, greetings to the two Saint Son and Saint Daughter."
Wang Mie glanced at Yu Zhangsheng and asked, "Your change in attitude is quite fast."
Yu Zhangsheng said, "After all, having returned to this Hai Shou Tian Dao, I cannot afford to offend either of you."
Wang Mie said, "Hah, when have you ever been afraid of offending someone you couldn't afford to offend?"
Yu Zhangsheng said, "Saint Son must have misunderstood me. I, Yu, have always been cautious and never lightly offend people."
Wang Mie waved his hand, "I can't be bothered to waste more words with you."
"Later I need you to help me with something."
Yu Zhangsheng asked, "What is it? Saint Son, just say it; as long as it's something I can do, I will certainly help with all my strength."
Wang Mie said, "That's best. Wang Donghai might come here soon. I want you to put on a play with me."
Chen Xueqing nodded slightly, clearly having known about this for a long time.
Yu Zhangsheng couldn't help but ask curiously, "I wonder what play Saint Son wants me to act in?"
"When Wang Donghai arrives, I will attack you. You don't need to do anything else; just resist desperately and then let me injure me."
Yu Zhangsheng couldn't help but frown, "Saint Son, what do you mean by this?"
"Only in this way can I have a reason to join forces to deal with Wang Donghai."
"Otherwise, Wang Donghai paid such a price to make me the Seventh Holy Son, yet I only gained such meager results; I cannot deal with him there."
Yu Zhangsheng fell silent for a moment.
"You want to attack me just to make me take the blame for this?"
Wang Mie did not deny it, "Correct, exactly so."
"All the materials in my hands were stolen by you. That's why Chen Xueqing achieved such good results, and that's why my materials are so few."
Yu Zhangsheng said, "But before, we were always returning together; back then, you and I were both fine. How do you explain that?"
"You wouldn't think Wang Donghai is a fool, would you?"
Wang Mie naturally knew this, "This matter is easy to handle; just tell Wang Donghai that you and I originally had an agreement, but after returning, the conditions fell through."
"The specific details, I will naturally explain to Wang Donghai; you don't need to worry."
Yu Zhangsheng said, "Since that's the case, why make me take the blame for you?"
"My Wanxiang Sect cannot afford to offend Wang Donghai's power."
"By comparison, the Saintess's family is great and powerful; surely she doesn't fear Wang Donghai?"
Wang Mie's complexion turned cold, "If you can't afford to offend Wang Donghai, can you afford to offend me? If you don't agree to this matter, I will say now that I will certainly not let you go."
"Moreover, if we don't do this, how can I believe you will help me deal with Wang Donghai afterward?"
Yu Zhangsheng now understood; it turned out Wang Mie had long prepared a backup plan—to firmly bind himself to Wang Mie's chariot.
If this matter truly succeeded, Wang Donghai would certainly not let him go easily.
Then he would have no choice but to actively help Wang Mie find a way to kill Wang Donghai.
Chen Xueqing also said:
"It's not that I can't be this person, but if I directly have such a great conflict with Wang Donghai, it is very likely to trigger a fight between the two great families of Hai Shou Tian Dao."
"If this matter blows up too much, in the end it will be suppressed by the Sect Master, or other families will profit from it; neither is a good result."
"So a suitable intermediary is needed, as a buffer between the two great families."
Yu Zhangsheng couldn't help but coldly laugh, "So this intermediary has become me?"
Wang Mie nodded, "Exactly so; you are the most suitable person for this."
Yu Zhangsheng was certainly not so foolish as to agree; once he became this intermediary, the trouble would be great.
Undoubtedly, he would be caught between the two great powers of Hai Shou Tian Dao, subjected to various friction.
Not to mention that he couldn't bear it; even Wanxiang Sect did not have this capability, and one careless moment would see him crushed into powder.
Yu Zhangsheng said coldly, "Saintess, although I indeed owe you many favors before."
"And after this Secret Realm struggle, I have long since repaid your favor."
"To still have me bear such risk now, isn't that a bit unreasonable?"
Chen Xueqing also felt deeply guilty, and hurriedly comforted him: "Rest assured, although this matter requires you to step forward."
"But in reality, Wang Mie and I only want to use the power behind me to deal with Wang Donghai, you don't need to bear too much pressure."
"The force behind me will absolutely support you with full strength."
Yu Changsheng let out a cold hum, "On this point, I don't doubt it. With your Chen Xueqing's character, you absolutely wouldn't sell me out."
"But even so, what of it? I cannot stake the lives of everyone in the Wanxiang Sect on a gamble with you!"
"If we win, I gain nothing. If we lose, won't my Wanxiang Sect be entirely buried with us? At that time, won't you and the force behind you be the first to abandon us?"
"At that time, even you, this Saintess, probably won't be able to sway those people's minds, right?"
"My Wanxiang Sect will also die without a burial ground!"
Yu Changsheng's words also made Wang Mie and the other person fall silent.
On this point, the two of them were naturally very clear.
If Yu Changsheng, this middleman, does a poor job, he will certainly be fully liquidated by Wang Donghai.
Wang Mie said: "If you don't agree, then I won't be polite to you either."
Yu Changsheng was likewise unafraid: "Threatening me is useless, it's death either way, so why should I listen to your arrangements?"
"At worst we both perish together, my Wanxiang Sect isn't easy to bully either."
Seeing Yu Changsheng neither yielding to soft nor hard tactics.
Wang Mie was also somewhat annoyed, he had never seen such an impervious fellow, truly giving him a headache.
But then again, if Yu Changsheng were really that easily persuaded, he wouldn't dare stake his life and fortune on him.
"Hehe, after all this talk, it's still that the benefits we offered aren't enough, isn't it?"
"Your Wanxiang Sect wants to develop, it also can't do without other people's backing, otherwise your Wanxiang Sect won't go far!"
"As long as this time, you agree to help me, assist me in eliminating Wang Donghai, from now on my Wang Family can fully support your Wanxiang Sect."
"On this Hai Shou Tian Dao, not to mention other things, absolutely no other force will dare to easily target your Wanxiang Sect again."
"Other benefits and treatments are also countless!"
Yu Changsheng this time finally got the answer he wanted. He naturally wouldn't agree to this kind of thankless task for no reason.
But since Wang Mie put forward this condition, that's another matter entirely.
Sometimes, these risks that should be borne still have to be borne.
At this time Chen Xueqing also stepped forward and said:
"I can also agree to the same conditions, the Wanxiang Sect can gain the support of both the Wang Family and Chen Family, two Great Families, from this time on, it is also sufficient to develop into a major power on Hai Shou Tian Dao."
Regarding this point, Yu Changsheng was not worried at all.
What he lacks most right now is time, once given enough time to develop normally, whether it's him or the Wanxiang Sect, both will rapidly increase in strength.
"Words alone are no proof, how can I believe you?"
Wang Mie looked at Chen Xueqing, and said: "I can write a Blood Letter, once this letter is made public, I, Wang Mie, will inevitably face eternal damnation."
"What Blood Letter?"
Wang Mie immediately took out a piece of white cloth prepared long ago, on which a letter was written in bloodstains.
Yu Changsheng glanced over the content roughly, the gist was that Wang Mie wanted Yu Changsheng to help him eliminate Wang Donghai, and this matter was entirely Wang Mie's own initiative.
And it was also stamped with the Seventh Holy Son's unique seal.
Once this letter is made public, and verified, it will indeed have a huge impact on Wang Mie.
Even Wang Donghai would exterminate him completely.
"Before eliminating Wang Donghai, you can all use this object to keep me in check. And during this period, the Wanxiang Sect can gain my Wang Family's support."
Yu Changsheng said: "This works, but what about after eliminating Wang Donghai?"
Wang Mie said: "That's who knows how far in the future, by that time the Wanxiang Sect, my Wang Family, and Chen Xueqing's Chen Family behind her will already be closely connected, do you still worry we'll go back on our word?"
Yu Changsheng nodded, this was indeed a method.
In the short term, there was no other better method.
"Good, since you're both this sincere, if I refuse again it would be crossing the two Saint Sons and Saint Daughters."
"I, Yu Changsheng, on behalf of the Wanxiang Sect, agree to you, and will gamble this one stake with you!"
"A word settles it!"
The two struck fists as an oath, counting as finalizing the agreement.
Wang Mie also finally let out a breath of relief, finally having persuaded Yu Changsheng, the first step counted as complete.
But this is only the beginning, the troublesome matters are still behind.
"Before long, Wang Donghai will arrive at this place, preparing to participate in this Grand Assembly at the Secret Realm's end."
"At that time I will suddenly move against you, you just be ready to cooperate with me at any moment."
"Good."
Yu Changsheng nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Wang Mie also immediately left the place, the two also weren't suitable for excessive contact, to avoid arousing suspicion.
After Wang Mie left.
Yu Changsheng again asked Chen Xueqing: "Saintess, why must you insist on agreeing to Wang Mie's plan?"
Chen Xueqing said: "There are too many things I cannot reveal, I can only tell you that inside Hai Shou Tian Dao it's also not a monolith."
"The various forces previously checked and balanced each other, barely achieving equilibrium."
"But once I win this time, this balance is very likely to be broken, at that time my Chen Family will also need allies."
Yu Zhangsheng nodded to show he understood; Chen Xueqing had also made it perfectly clear.
The person behind Lin Tianhao certainly would not let the matter rest easily; when the time came, Hai Shou Tian Dao would likely not escape another bout of bloody slaughter.
Yu Zhangsheng let out a long sigh; he had thought that once he left the Secret Realm, he could enjoy a period of peace.
Who would have thought that leaving the Secret Realm was precisely when the storm was about to break — the beginning of trouble.
He reckoned he would not be able to think of peace for this stretch of time.
"Ah, I never expected that a mere Sub-Talisman Cultivator like me would actually get mixed up in this sort of affair; Gai Bu Hao tomorrow I might end up with my corpse exposed in the Wilderness."
Chen Xueqing smiled faintly. "What? Could it be you're afraid?"
Yu Zhangsheng snorted lightly twice. "How could I not be afraid? Tomorrow my Beast Head might be crushed underfoot by a Huashen Cultivator sent by Wang Donghai; how could I not be afraid?"
"What use is fear? Since you chose this road, there is no room for Retreat; as long as you win the gamble, the future will naturally be bright."
"Saintess, although I have never liked taking risks in my life, I, Yu Zhangsheng, have reached today having taken more risks than anyone imagines."
Yu Zhangsheng Walk Slowly toward the distance, yet his Background appeared so Gu Du.
Chen Xueqing Look At that Background slightly dazed; a moment later she covered her mouth and chuckled softly twice.
"This Guy, what are you putting on airs for?"
Guang Chang Zhi Shang.
Gradually more and more people from Hai Shou Tian Dao withdrew from the Secret Realm.
Even Grand Elder Qiu Tianji came to this Guang Chang Zhi Shang, preparing to welcome the remaining few Saint Sons.
At present, three Saint Sons and Saint Daughters still remained in that Secret Realm.
It was said that two Saint Sons and Saint Daughters had returned Yesterday, and the Sixth Saintess Chen Xueqing's gains were extremely rich.
It made even Qiu Tianji Tan Qi that this Chen Xueqing was truly outstanding in ability, surprisingly able to wrest such great benefits from the hands of the Da Sheng Clan, such a colossal behemoth.
Truly rare and precious; he immediately announced this news to all the Elders.
This also caused the other several Elders to react strongly.
Some naturally immediately began to curry favor with the Second Elder behind Chen Xueqing.
As For those Elders who had long since fallen out with the Second Elder, they had already begun thinking of ways to cope.
And the Elder Zhang behind the other four Saint Sons was also looking forward to the results the other four Saint Sons would obtain.
Wang Donghai arrived Ji Xin at the Guang Chang Zhi Shang; his Complexion was also not good.
Upon learning the news of Wang Mie's return, he rode here at the first moment.
But on the way he heard of Wang Mie's results, which were extremely unsatisfactory.
Moreover, even the teammates who entered the Secret Realm together — one Disappear, one dead.
Such an outcome, Wang Donghai naturally could not Bearing.
When he arrived at that Guang Chang Zhi Shang, he quickly noticed Wang Mie standing in the Central.
Wang Mie immediately knelt on the Ground to greet him.
"Grandson, pays respects to Grandpa."
Pa! With a crisp slap sound ringing out, everyone's gazes all converged here.
Wang Mie's Zui Bian also Flow Out blood, yet he still Lower Head without a word.
"Fei Fei!"
Wang Donghai's eyes were Coldness, looking down from above at the person on the Ground; if it were not for the fact that other disciples were everywhere here, his attack would not have stopped at this.
"Grandson knows his fault, but This Time the mistake does not lie with Grandson alone!"
"What happened?"
Wang Mie turned his head to look, his gaze also falling on Yu Zhangsheng in the distance who was watching the show.
"Is it him?"
Wang Donghai's eyes narrowed slightly, noticing Yu Zhangsheng with arms crossed, his gaze darkly containing killing intent. (Chapter End)
