Chapter 806: Chapter 231: Unveiling the Secret, an Unexpected Alliance

"Okay, Dad, I’ll ask Old Bai to take care of it."

"Who’s Old Bai?"

"White Impermanence, of course."

...

...

That night, White Impermanence found an excuse and took thirty-five guards of the Divine Temple to circle around the Ghost Prison before leaving.

Li Yuan was on a high mountain not far away, leaning against Tree Granny, watching the scene from above.

Xiao Wu Ya was on his shoulder, relaying information.

And the information was simple:... These people seemed perfectly normal, with nothing amiss.

Li Yuan furrowed his brows slightly, and suddenly said, "Xiaozhao, send some crows north of Sword Mountain, use the Fission Skill that old man taught you to devour all the Meat Field, then quickly ascend to the Celestial Soul Second Realm, and activate the Celestial Soul Array to help your brother... conquer the Central Plains."

"Huh?"

Xiao Wu Ya didn’t quite catch on.

Li Yuan laughed: "Bad men aren’t scary; it’s the bad men hiding in the dark that are. Since he won’t reveal himself, Dad wants to force him out."

"But what happens if he is forced out, Dad?" Xiao Wu Ya extended the tip of his black wing, tapping his beak, with a thoughtful look in his dark eyes.

Li Yuan said: "If he’s forced out, that’s the bothersome issue for the Divine Tomb, not ours. We’ll just watch... and use their resources to grow stronger... As for taking action, it will certainly happen, but before that, ask Dad."

"Oh oh oh... Dad is really cunni...smart." Xiao Wu Ya was extremely happy.

...

The conversation between the two just wrapped up.

In the Eternal Night Western Pole, a serene lady sitting on a coffin lid yawned, then said, "Old man, I’ve thought about it, and I think what you said makes a lot of sense, so... I’ll reluctantly step in."

The Divine Spirit, who had been persuading her with painstaking effort for over a decade, suddenly got this good news and almost felt an incredulous sense of ecstasy, akin to the joy after diligent cultivation and a breakthrough.

"You... you agreed?"

The Divine Spirit still couldn’t believe it.

Xiaozhao said: "After all... it is my own brother, so I must care for him."

"You’re right; when it comes to war, there needs to be close sibling bonds.

The Great Unity of Yin Yang wrought infinite havoc.

The Barbarian King destroys Yin, you obliterate the Meat Field.

Thus... the world can return to stability." Even as the Divine Spirit continued his persuasion, his ancient voice carried a note of joy.

Xiaozhao flipped over onto the coffin lid and said, "But, old man, let’s make it clear!

I won’t fight tough battles! I won’t go to the frontlines! In places full of enemies, don’t expect me to exert myself! At most, I’ll deal with the Meat Field! Of course, if I want to fight, you can’t stop me!"

The elderly voice said: "Before you can form the true, all-conquering Celestial Soul Array, even if you want to fight tough battles, I still won’t let you."

Xiaozhao said: "Then... I will agree with you reluctantly."

As her words fell, hundreds of crows fluttered their wings, surging out like a dark, chilling tide.

Outside the door, the Barbarian Queen’s trusted aides, who were praying for the Crow Mother to emerge from the tomb, showed joy, each shouting: "The Crow Mother has left the tomb, the Crow Mother has left the tomb!"

In the ethereal darkness, the wind and snow were dense.

Massive azure ice pillars, scattered haphazardly, lay silently across the uninhabited "Giant’s Garden."

In that void, it seemed like there were indistinct figures on the clouds, moving chess pieces, taking them forward.

This move startled the snake while driving the tiger to devour the wolf.

...

...

"This battle must be lost."

In a dark spot, a woman spoke with a voice clear and indifferent.

A faint light revealed her cyan robe and the coldness in her eyes.

If Li Yuan were here, he’d instantly recognize that this woman was the Firefly Demon.

"Of course it must be lost; only by losing will the Six Kingdoms recognize the terror of the Ice Barbarians, prompting them frantically to bring about the Great Unity of Yin Yang..." the speaker continued, though her voice carried a seductive charm.

This woman was none other than the "White Lotus Sect Leader" Bai Lianjue.

Bai Lianjue hesitated: "But if, after defeat, we can’t stop the Ice Barbarians from advancing relentlessly, then what?"

"In times of chaos, great generals arise."

"Yet no matter how skilled a general, they cannot stop the Ice Barbarians at present... You and I both know this, don’t we?"

"The entity behind me has already acted.

Their understanding of this land surpasses that of anyone else.

People of this era simply cannot compare with them.

While they might not obliterate the Ice Barbarians, they can hold them back, delay them.

The Ice Barbarian assault can be an opportunity for us."

"And what about that mysterious senior?"

"As for him... as long as he doesn’t act, that’s all we need. We just need to keep him steady." The Firefly Demon revealed a smile, "Go tell the immortals behind you, they shouldn’t just sit back and watch, but should also come to the Central Plains."

"They’re all terrified by that senior." Bai Lianjue’s tone carried cheekiness.

The Firefly Demon retracted her smile, speaking solemnly: "Tell them, that senior is not from the Western Pole Divine Tomb."

"Who is he?"

"Who he is, I don’t know, but I know you might not be the real enemy."

"I will report truthfully..."

The simple conversation quickly ended.

They weren’t in the same place, only communicating over a great distance through some mysterious power.

Now that the conversation ended, the future direction seemed set.

But after the dialogue, the Firefly Demon coughed gently a few times, walked to a door, tidied her cyan dress, thought for a moment, then exited, heading far away.

In Peng Mi’s house, an aviary with its door open hung inside.

Within the aviary, a beautiful Golden Canary hopped around cheerfully.
