Master of Strange Dao

Inside the Faceless Man organization of Dazhen, no one practiced this Dharma Method anymore, and whether they even had the complete method was a question.

At least in Dadui, Jia Shisi explicitly told Yu Ziqing that the Faceless Men under his command had thoroughly sealed the Dharma Method, and he had not even seen the contents himself.

Yu Ziqing pondered silently, considering whose people were now dealing with the White Water Egg outside.

These individuals were already active over two thousand years ago.

Yu Ziqing once thought the White Water Egg belonged to the dong chang people, but later, when he clashed with the chief director, the White Water Egg did not appear.

If those people were the chief director's subordinates, there was no reason not to use this force when the chief director was pushed to the brink.

"Do you remember anything else? Be detailed, the more detailed, the better."

"It seems not much, back then, when the Old Emperor Zhen showed a flaw, the Heavenly Demon took the opportunity to invade.

In the end, the Old Emperor Zhen chose to be shattered rather than remain intact, and then he was dismembered by the people who came.

I became a head, contending with the Old Emperor Zhen within his Sea of Consciousness, and as for who took away his head and what happened afterwards,

I don't know."

"Hmm, alright, at least there's a clue, if you remember anything else, let me know."

"Sir, I understand, if I think of something, I'll report immediately."

Yu Ziqing mused that the current clue was that King Qi.

It's not too surprising that Dazhen was the weakest among the Three Divine Dynasties, it was inherently difficult.

There were snitches, the White Water Egg was active, and even the White Sun Evil Cult was wreaking havoc in Dazhen.

Plus factors like geography and climate.

If it weren't for the valiant nature of the people, with Body Cultivators being the most numerous among the Three Divine Dynasties, far surpassing the other two Dynasties, it would be questionable if it could still exist now.

Yu Ziqing thought it over; if the Divine Dynasties could avoid going to war, it would be best not to fight.

If the Three Divine Dynasties descended into chaos, Jinlan Mountain wouldn't be able to remain unaffected.

And by then, someone would surely press him to bring Dadui back.

With things already in disarray, the impact of Dadui's return wouldn't even matter.

By then, it would become a gamble to see who advanced to the Tenth Tier first.

And in such a situation, if a Tenth Tier appeared, it would only get messier and surely couldn't stabilize immediately.

After thinking it through, Yu Ziqing sent a message to King Xiang.

It said that his uncle missed him.

Within a few days, King Xiang appeared in the north of Jinlan Mountain, having tea with You Zhen inside.

When the father and son met, his father also returned to normal, and after a brief reminiscence, they turned to discussing serious matters.

When they weren't meeting, they thought about each other daily; when they met, it became a discussion of state affairs, boasting, and cultivation.

Yu Ziqing hadn't yet entered the courtyard and already heard the father and son arguing.

Yu Ziqing gave a light cough and stepped into You Zhen's small courtyard.

King Xiang hesitated, feeling a bit unnatural, then gritted his teeth and knelt with a thud, kowtowing three times.

The courtyard's bricks cracked from his kowtows.

"Greetings, Little Uncle!"

"That's unnecessary, please rise..."

Seeing Yu Ziqing a bit awkward, King Xiang became more fervent, kowtowing three more times.

"Little Uncle took on this trouble with great risk, saving my father several times, as his son, I have nothing to repay you with but these kowtows."

King Xiang's face was solemn, not embarrassed anymore, respectfully expressing his gratitude.

A few kowtows were nothing; if his father could recover, kowtowing for ten years would be well worth it.

Achieving a wish two thousand years old, even calling someone "Little Dad," he would do it willingly.

Yu Ziqing sighed.

"It's just an excuse to have you come over, so please stand up."

Yu Ziqing helped King Xiang up, losing the intention to tease him.

If King Xiang had been hesitant, Yu Ziqing would have teased him, but seeing him genuinely kowtowing, Yu Ziqing lost interest.

After everyone was seated, Yu Ziqing looked at King Xiang.

"First, tell me about the internal situation of Dazhen, has it been very chaotic lately?"

"Yes, there is constant bickering in the court, my second uncle has already executed several people, but still can't suppress it.

The conflicts between the kings have become increasingly severe.

A couple of days ago, King Qi and King Liang fought a battle, deploying thousands of troops, even an eighth-tier Great Cultivator got involved.

It seems my second uncle believes we must fight a battle with Dali.

Even if we can't reclaim lost territories, it will at least make those people calm down."

"Is King Qi stirring up a lot of trouble? Is he in the pro-war faction?"

"He indeed is in the pro-war camp because his territory was originally in the south.

Now, King Liang has migrated from the north, becoming his neighbor, and the territories are constantly clashing.

Moreover, before the southern territory was lost, his land did not border with Dali.

Now his territory almost completely borders with Dali,

So naturally, he wants to reclaim the lost land.

Firstly, to get King Liang and the migrants from the north out, secondly, to avoid guarding the border."

"If King Qi were taken out, would Dazhen's internal turmoil settle down?"

"Take out King Qi?" King Xiang was startled, shaking his head immediately, "King Qi is at the Ninth Tier, just yet to cross the tribulation, and he has strong troops and abundant supplies; if we move against him, Dazhen will immediately fall into chaos."

"Just tell me, if there's a legitimate crime, could we take him out, and would it have an effect?"

"Of course, it would, King Qi's territory isn't small, it's directly in the south, currently the best part of Dazhen."

"Hmm, I received word that your father's matter back then involved the Old King Qi directly.

The Princely Heir of King Qi, who is now King Qi, probably knows about this as well."

Yu Ziqing hadn't finished speaking when King Xiang suddenly stood up, his eyes wide, filled with a murderous glint.
