Chapter 1288 - 335: Absolutely Correct, Secretly Crossing the Warehouse (5k)
Except for a very few who know the inner workings of that enterprise, the rest of the Wei Clan regard the vanguard's undertaking as a glory.
Those who don't even want this kind of glory are fringe figures in the Wei Clan with neither talent nor ability, and likely are only Wei in name alone.
These people can't possibly have even a single page of clan records to themselves, let alone several pages; they can't even enter the genealogy used to record generational names...
Yu Ziqing wasn't actually in such a hurry because he knew that Wei's Ancestor had definitely gone into hiding.
Unexpectedly, with a change of thought, Old Yang followed Yu Ziqing's plan and even managed to lure over a bunch of Deans.
This news, even King Xiang himself came with a troubled face to talk him into it before he found out, and in just half a month, it had blown up to this magnitude.
"I said it before, you don't need to worry, this matter is no longer just about you.
Since I heard you went to the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land and found that abandoned Yin Devil Nest, it's not your concern anymore.
I'm just telling the truth; you have no idea what things these Deans absolutely cannot tolerate."
Old Yang spoke with an air of righteousness.
Yu Ziqing looked Old Yang up and down, then chuckled.
"Please, drop the act around me, old man.
Do you think I don't know how long you've been waiting for such an opportunity?
You were hesitant to rashly come over before because you were afraid of alerting the enemy and exposing a flaw.
Willing to endure, willing to go around the Silence Divine Spell with time.
Now is such a great opportunity.
That Wei's Ancestor is related to the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land in the western part of Dazhen.
If you come over, even if you don't go to the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, you'll definitely have to go to the west of Dazhen.
And since you're in the west of Dazhen, it's only natural to take the opportunity to investigate the Great Sun Dominating the Sky from back then.
Also, with Senior Chu Ye by your side, the two of you could work together to set up a research project.
Having other Deans help investigate openly, no one would dare say anything.
Even Old Emperor Qian would have to watch helplessly, not daring to touch a hair on you.
Aren't you just hoping someone tries to interfere with you right now?
Then pin the blame on Wei's Ancestor, using that as an excuse to dig deep."
Old Yang glanced sidelong at Yu Ziqing, speaking in a composed manner.
"Eliminating such maniacs who dare to lay hands on our samples is the righteous path of the heavens."
Yu Ziqing rolled his eyes.
Which translated means: shut your filthy mouth, I didn't say that, don't talk nonsense.
"That Wei's Ancestor isn't so easy to kill; he was torn in two by Ruan Renwang and didn't die.
He possesses a sliver of the undying power of a Yang Devil, which typical methods might find hard to erase.
He can hide, and he's hard to kill.
Haven't you mentioned all this to the other Deans?"
Old Yang grinned slyly.
"This is where you're mistaken, I am always meticulous about such things, and of course, I told the truth."
Yu Ziqing was taken aback, then after a moment of reconsideration, he leaned back tactically, drawing a cold breath.
It's precisely because he told the truth that these Deans came here so quickly and with such great interest.
So, the so-called sample in that excuse doesn't actually refer to what Yu Ziqing has.
The sample is precisely Wei's Ancestor himself.
And since Wei's Ancestor isn't easy to kill, it indicates that a lot of time will need to be spent.
The longer it takes, the more time Old Yang will have to openly investigate, research, and track around here without fear of exposure or obstruction; he might even wish for interference.
"You're truly a sly old fox."
"What do you know." Old Yang laughed, cursing.
He'd been waiting for an opportunity like this for a long time and had endured a lot.
But now, with such powerful backing, along with a bunch of Deans in the scenario, he exceeded his best expectations.
Yu Ziqing pondered for a long while.
"Do you think I should bait Qingping a little?"
"Who is Qingping? I don't know, haven't heard. I'm here to deal with the Evil Dao."
"I don't know either, never heard, but given what you're thinking now, certain people should be getting anxious, right?"
"Let's see if anyone other than Wei's Ancestor jumps out."
"Then we can't let Wei's Ancestor stay hidden forever."
Yu Ziqing chuckled, indeed, Old Yang was as cunning as himself.
His original thought was that he didn't know Qingping was present, nor did he know that last time Qingping had intervened or what involvement he had.
After all, the target was the Evil Dao allies.
Leaving the Seventh Floor's ring, Yu Ziqing immediately called for Wei Lan on his side and contacted the Yang-destroying Devil.
"About something, I need to discuss with you.
Wei's Ancestor has gotten into big trouble, and now, literally, the whole world is against him.
The Three Divine Dynasties, along with the two sects, all demand his death.
If he finds nowhere to flee, he'll definitely head for your place.
If you let him in, facing a whole crowd of the world's smartest people behind, your secrets will inevitably be exposed to everyone.
For someone like him, he'll do anything for his own sake.
You understand what I'm saying, right?"
Yu Ziqing wasted no time in explaining roughly how Wei's Ancestor had caused massive trouble, and advised that it would be best not to get involved.
The Yang-destroying Devil instantly understood, not caring for Wei's Ancestor's survival.
Similarly, once cornered, Wei's Ancestor surely wouldn't care about him either.
"Don't worry, lately, no one will be able to enter my place, but he needs to die quickly."
Yu Ziqing feigned difficulty, probing with a question.
"I know that, but he possesses a sliver of your undying power, how can we make him die a little faster?"
The Yang-destroying Devil was silent for a moment, deliberating before speaking.
"The power of death can utterly destroy him.
His power, in reality, is quite weak and does not require very strong force.
A strong enough zombie would be enough to completely kill him."
Yu Ziqing nodded; indeed, zombies, these undying beings, are somewhat connected to death.
"I understand, rest assured. Since I promised you, I will certainly strive to assist you.
After all, I too wish to kill him and send you to your death.
I don't want any major upheavals affecting this."
Upon hearing this, the Yang-destroying Devil was greatly pleased and nodded repeatedly in assurance.
"Well said, rest assured, he won't reach my place."
