Chapter 509 Fellow Daoist, Please Wait
Yin Xuanzi, of course, could not accept Bai Ze's guess.
The god on earth was not only the general's "father," but also the highest faith of the Western Union.
Even if Yin Xuanzi dared to admit it, Bai Ze wouldn't dare to believe it.
That can only mean that behind Yin Xuanzi is not a general, but the Nine-Linked Gods, who are opposed to the gods of the human world.
How the Nine-Linked Gods knew the whereabouts of the gods on earth is a question...
However, Yin Xuanzi's silence is itself a form of expression.
This suggests that in the eyes of Yin Xuanzi... or those powerful figures in the Western Alliance, if the God of the Mortal Realm were to be plotted against, both the Nine Alliance Gods and the descendants of the God of the Mortal Realm would be suspects.
Furthermore, the fact that the god of the human realm preferred to travel far away alone rather than return to the Western Union to digest and reap the rewards shows that he was quite wary of the Nine Union Gods.
The workplace environment at Western Union is truly treacherous, and the relationship between the father and son, the god among men, seems less than optimistic, a situation that could be described as the father parting ways and the son laughing.
If the gods on earth were truly to improve their power, they would most likely target the Nine-Linked Gods first, pacifying the internal situation before dealing with external threats.
There seems to be an opportunity here…
Bai Ze's mind raced, and a whole host of wicked ideas popped into his head.
Yin Xuanzi, who was being stared at, also felt uneasy, as if he had a thorn in his back.
Yin Xuanzi had heard a lot of news about Bai Ze before, especially about how quickly Bai Ze's strength had improved, as well as his extraordinary techniques and combat power.
Yin Xuanzi himself was skeptical about this, which is why he had tested the waters beforehand.
As a result of this test, he decisively backed down and revealed his purpose in one move.
He felt helpless; he knew that if he spoke too late, he might never have another chance.
He thought his "Ten Thousand Souls Technique," specializing in the mind and unpredictable, would be enough to rival Bai Ze. Only after their first encounter did he realize just how monstrous Bai Ze, at only twenty years old, truly was.
That divine energy was extremely powerful, and in terms of stability, it was even stronger than my own nine-star level.
If you can't even suppress your opponent with your greatest strength, then what's the point of fighting? Just admit defeat.
Feeling the renewed sense of crisis in his heart, Yin Xuanzi immediately said, "The God of the Human Realm has gone to the western desert. I don't know the exact location, but two days ago, the God of the Human Realm's most loyal eldest son led his army westward to clear away the remaining radiation energy, which made me certain that the God of the Human Realm went westward."
After Yin Xuanzi finished speaking in one breath, he felt his sense of crisis subside a little.
After a moment of contemplation, Bai Ze smiled and said, "When you're traveling, you really have to rely on your fellow countrymen. I'll remember Daoist Yin Xuanzi's kindness and repay it handsomely in the future."
"It's nothing, it's nothing."
Yin Xuanzi felt a slight sense of relief and smiled, "It's all for Dongxia."
As he spoke, his aura swirled, and he said, "Now that the message has been delivered, I shall take my leave."
"No need to see me off." Bai Ze said with a smile as he bid farewell.
Yin Xuanzi was still not entirely at ease with Bai Ze, after all, he was the kind of guy who could use scheming to force the general out of Ying Kingdom.
Don't underestimate his cunning just because he's young.
Therefore, Yin Xuanzi never completely relaxed.
But even after he flew out of the mountain range and far away from the immortal volcano, there was no unusual activity.
This put Yin Xuanzi at ease.
He landed behind a sand dune, held his breath, and waited quietly like a rock.
Before long, a black shadow quietly emerged from the shadow of the sand dune, and a figure slowly rose from the shadow.
It was a figure dressed in black leather armor, with a metal helmet covering his head, and no skin was visible on his body.
The only thing that could prove his identity was the shadow that surrounded him.
The Shadow Legion.
You could also say he was the general's man.
Robert, the "Shadow Prince" and commander of the Shadow Legion, once used the Sea Ice Ship to pick up the general and bring him back to the Western Union.
His stance has long been an open secret.
Furthermore, Robert is very much like his father; all members of the Shadow Legion are his clones and are completely under his control, making betrayal impossible.
Upon seeing this member of the Shadow Legion, Yin Xuanzi was finally certain that Bai Ze had not pursued them.
"The objective has been achieved, and the message has been delivered to Bai Ze," Yin Xuanzi said in a low voice.
"I know."
The man in the shadows said in a deep voice, "I witnessed the whole thing. You were too direct."
By stating the news so directly and plainly, the internal conflicts within the Western Alliance were probably already guessed by the cunning Bai Ze. Originally, Yin Xuanzi should have been more roundabout and tactful.
"If I don't go directly, I'm afraid I'll be severely injured within ten moves."
Yin Xuanzi snorted coldly and said, "Your Shadow Legion's intelligence is wrong. That person is simply a monster, a prodigy. If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have taken the risk and accepted the mission. Anyway, I'm not one of yours; I only stood on your side openly because of God Ishtarb's orders..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a cold, sharp shout.
"Shut up!"
The shadows flickered, and instantly, streaks of blade light spread all around, aimed at Yin Xuanzi.
The member of the Shadow Legion stared intently at Yin Xuanzi with eyes like knives, and even the mask on his metal helmet could not hide his chilling killing intent.
If anyone were to hear Yin Xuanzi's complaint, it could lead to serious trouble.
This is because the "God of Ishtarb" is one of the Nine Gods.
Yin Xuanzi realized he had spoken out of turn and promptly shut his mouth, while silently circulating his internal energy to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart.
After a long while, he calmed down and said, "I apologize, I misspoke. That Chief Bai seemed unassuming, but he triggered my sense of crisis, causing my emotions to fluctuate and me to blurt out the wrong thing."
The icy gaze, sharp as a knife, lingered on Yin Xuanzi for several more seconds before slowly fading away.
The surrounding blade light also dissipated.
Be more careful next time.
The other party did not pursue the matter further, but only issued a warning.
Yin Xuanzi was not one of their Shadow Legion members after all, so no matter how dissatisfied they were, they could not act rashly.
After this mishap, the two lost the will to continue their conversation.
The man from the Shadow Legion disappeared back into the shadows.
Yin Xuanzi also fled away.
After the two of them left, "So that's how it is."
Bai Ze's figure quietly appeared behind the sand dune, his position clearly behind where Yin Xuanzi had been standing.
The distance between the two is only one step.
The distance was so close that if Bai Ze were to launch a sneak attack, Yin Xuanzi would be either killed or crippled.
Neither Yin Xuanzi nor the member of the Shadow Legion noticed Bai Ze's presence. They revealed their secret right under Bai Ze's nose.
By the way, it was Bai Ze who guided Yin Xuanzi to reveal that secret.
All it takes is to subtly stir Yin Xuanzi's emotions with words that become law, causing him to lose his composure.
"The leak of the whereabouts of the gods on earth was done in cahoots between the general and the Nine-Linked Gods."
The harshness of the Western Union's workplace environment exceeded Bai Ze's expectations.
I initially thought it was either the "filial son" of the Nine Gods or the God of the Mortal Realm, but it turns out that the two sides have joined forces.
This shows how popular the gods are among humankind.
But in other words, the fact that both sides have joined forces, and are doing it secretly, shows the pressure the gods on them are putting on them.
In the confrontation between the Nine-Linked Gods and the gods of the mortal realm, the Nine-Linked Gods were undoubtedly at a disadvantage.
The fact that the general would join forces with the Nine-Alliance Gods without fear of being devoured by them shows that, in the general's eyes, the other side also needs him.
"Tsk, you've got a pretty good plan," Bai Ze clicked his tongue.
He originally thought the leak was probably made by the general, because the general was the biggest beneficiary.
In that case, Bai Ze intends to give him a helping hand.
Even if war breaks out and the general takes the helm, there will still be the Nine Gods to check and balance this new leader.
If they were to add fuel to the fire, it might very well trigger internal conflicts within the Western Union.
But now that the two sides have joined forces, the situation is different.
This means they want Bai Ze to help them restrain the gods of the mortal realm, and at the same time, they want to fight Bai Ze and Dongxia.
Bai Ze didn't even need to think to know that he was at the top of the general's blacklist, and that if a battle broke out, he would definitely have to deal with the Steel Continent first, and then Dongxia.
"Looks like we need to change our plans."
Bai Ze's thoughts raced, and he said, "Change."
A black Taoist robe appeared on his body, his black hair grew longer and was styled into a Taoist bun, three long strands of beard appeared under his chin, and his facial features also changed drastically. In the blink of an eye, another "Yin Xuanzi" replaced Bai Ze, and even their auras were exactly the same.
"It's time to repay the favor."
Yin Xuanzi has done Bai Ze a great favor, and Bai Ze always repays kindness, so he will definitely repay him properly.
Since Yin Xuanzi has a deep patriotic heart, and though he is in the Western Alliance, his heart is in the Eastern Xia, then Bai Ze will make Yin Xuanzi's virtue known to the world.
"We are all compatriots, this is what I should do."
Bai Ze chuckled, reached out and grasped, and a pale white sword light solidified in his hand.
He unleashed a burst of sword energy, soaring through the air, and returned to the Undying Volcano once more.
The events that occur at the immortal volcano are of paramount importance to all countries.
However, due to geographical location, people from other countries did not arrive immediately.
Bai Ze could directly teleport space with his words, while others would have to run on their own.
For example, Lü Xuanfeng of the Chunyang Palace in Dongxia.
When Lü Xuanfeng reached the eighth star level, the divine power he condensed allowed him to fly on a sword. Although his speed was far inferior to Cheng Peng's, it was still enough to make him a leader among those in the Three Souls Realm. Even some ninth-star or even tenth-star individuals might not be able to match his flight speed.
Therefore, when the Martial Arts Association issued the investigation order, Lü Xuanfeng was the first to arrive in the vicinity.
He carefully landed on a sand dune, observed the distant volcano for a while, then raised his sword and prepared to sneak in.
Lu Xuanfeng was still unsure whether the god of the mortal realm had left the Undying Volcano, so he decided to proceed with caution.
But before the sword light could rise again, a shout suddenly came.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait."
Lu Xuanfeng's heart skipped a beat.
As people from Dongxia, especially those in the Taoist community, this is the kind of thing we can't stand to hear.
At that moment, Lü Xuanfeng no longer cared about concealing his tracks and immediately prepared to fly away with a flash of sword light.
That's what he was thinking, but for some reason, his feet remained firmly planted on the spot, and he even turned around.
Damn it! What the hell!
Alarm bells rang in Lü Xuanfeng's mind: "Could someone really have amassed such a ridiculous supernatural power?"
"Fellow Daoist, please wait" is just a joke. Although it's very unlucky, Lü Xuanfeng only has some reservations about it, but he's not afraid of it.
The real reason he drew his sword was that the other party approached silently, and was probably up to no good.
But now, Lü Xuanfeng has to suspect that someone really did condense similar supernatural powers at the eight-star level.
Despite his reluctance, his body still turned around and saw a Taoist priest wearing a black robe.
The other person stood not far away with a friendly expression and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you a member of the Daoist sect of Dongxia? I have some news to share with you. Please convey to the gods of Dongxia that a mortal god has traveled westward into the depths of the desert. Please send your mortal enemies to stop him from refining his opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Lü Xuanfeng became even more wary.
The reason is that the other party possesses yin energy but does not have the appearance of being surrounded by malevolent energy, and also has obvious foreign appearance characteristics.
Lü Xuanfeng, who had more experience than Bai Ze, was able to determine the other party's identity without even fighting him.
The evil warriors of the Western Alliance.
"Are you from Western Union?" Lu Xuanfeng questioned.
"Although I am a citizen of the Western Alliance, my heart has always been with the Eastern Xia."
Bai Ze said with a sincere expression, "People from Dongxia don't lie to people from Dongxia. This news is absolutely true. I am Ge Ruike, my Daoist name is Yin Xuanzi. My family has a certain reputation in Xilian. If the news is false, you are welcome to cause trouble for the Ge family."
Lu Xuanfeng still didn't believe it, but seeing the other party's behavior, he decided to play along for a while and test the waters further.
Before Lü Xuanfeng could even make a move, Bai Ze turned and left.
"This matter is of great importance. Fellow Daoist, please return and report immediately. I will continue to gather information, and if I find anything, I will secretly deliver it to the Martial Arts Association."
As he spoke, Bai Ze, disguised as Yin Xuanzi, had already fled at lightning speed.
Lu Xuanfeng thought the other party would take the opportunity to approach and gather information, but he didn't expect the other party to leave so decisively.
"Could it be that his heart truly belongs to Dongxia?"
Lu Xuanfeng was a little confused.
However, now that we have received the news, it is best to report it as soon as possible.
As for whether the news is true or false, let's leave it to the higher-ups to confirm.
Thinking this, Lü Xuanfeng took out a communication jade slip.
Judging by the time, other people should have arrived nearby.
Meanwhile, after bidding farewell to Lü Xuanfeng, Bai Ze quickly found another group of people about three thousand miles away.
The light of Ursus shone brightly in the sky as a force of a hundred men rode into the desert on large black birds.
"Comaresh, please wait a moment."
A faint red light emanated from Bai Ze's body. He raised his head, emphasizing his Western features, and said, "I am an informant for the Ursus International Security Committee. I have a secret intelligence to pass on to you all."
While it's a bit far-fetched for a dignified nine-star martial artist to be an informant, the crimson light is hard to fake.
Anyway, don't worry about too much, just spread the word.
