Chapter 191 Compromise
As evening approached, the great elder of Tianren Sect rushed back to the capital.
It also brought back more precise news and investigation results about the Yunzhou City Taoist Temple.
The core members of the Tianren Sect in the capital were also summoned into the palace by Emperor Yanshun.
Everyone looked solemn and felt very heavy.
They all know how much this incident has dealt a blow to their Celestial Being Sect.
Although the Taoist temple in Yunzhou City was not wiped out, most of its combat power was lost, and Elder He was arrested.
Coupled with the destruction of Lingshui City Taoist Temple and Hengzhou City Taoist Temple, they really suffered heavy losses this time.
And the most terrifying thing is that they suddenly have to face a powerful and unknown opponent.
What kind of person is the other party, what methods does he have, and what is the upper limit of his strength?
They know next to nothing.
In the past, when facing the Tianxia Alliance, they could basically grasp the general information of their opponents and the strength of each strong person.
But this guy named Wei Yi is completely unfamiliar to them.
Even the various rumors about him only happened in the past month or two.
And from those rumors, they couldn't accurately judge the other party's methods at all.
But what is certain is that this person's cultivation level is at least the Nascent Soul realm, and may even be higher.
Moreover, according to the latest news coming back from Lingshui City, it can be seen that there are a large group of first and second grade warriors under his command.
This is the scariest thing.
They couldn't even figure out where these first and second grade warriors came from.
You must know that in the Great Yan Dynasty, those who can reach the third level are well-known existences.
Let alone a first or second grade warrior.
Judging from the current situation happening in the Taoist Temple in Lingshui City.
This Wei Yi and that group of powerful men are definitely capable of threatening the foundation of their Celestial Religion.
The most important thing is that they are in the light, and others are in the dark, so they can't guard against it.
"From the current point of view, their motive is obvious, that is, they want to use Elder Zifeng and Elder He in exchange for us, and it is obvious that Elder Zifeng is their focus!" The great elder - Elder Tianhui said in a deep voice.
"Yeah!" Everyone nodded, which was not difficult to see.
Moreover, their opponents really succeeded. Elder Zifeng was caught by them, and they, the Celestial Being Sect, really couldn't abandon him.
But if those people from the Tianxia Alliance are released, all their previous efforts will be in vain.
It will even seriously affect the majesty of their Heavenly Man Sect.
Therefore, it was difficult to decide on this matter, and their eyes couldn't help but look at Emperor Yanshun.
After all, this matter can only be decided by him.
"Headmaster, what do you think?" Elder Tianhui asked.
Emperor Yanshun was silent, and he was also very troubled in his heart.
He was not willing to let go of those members of the Tianxia Alliance.
Originally, they had hoped to completely wipe out this group of bastards and avoid future troubles.
Originally, the initiative was in their hands.
But now the situation has reversed...
He cannot give up Elder Zifeng, otherwise their losses will be too great.
What's more, Elder Zifeng's meaning and status in his heart are also extraordinary.
So no matter how unwilling he is.
But I had to choose to compromise on this matter.
"No matter what, we must rescue Elder Zifeng!" Emperor Yan Shun spoke.
Everyone was silent, having already guessed this answer.
Emperor Yanshun paused and then said: "Now it seems that the people we arrested are the smallest threat to our religion, and the one named Wei Yi is the biggest threat. If we don't compromise this time, This guy will definitely encroach on our power, and letting those people from the Tianxia Alliance go is just a way to delay the attack!"
Everyone nodded, naturally understanding what Emperor Yanshun said.
"By the way, call people quickly to stop the action against Wei Yi's family. We can't anger them anymore!" Emperor Yanshun said again.
He didn't care whether the other party was Wei Yi or not, he couldn't continue to intensify the conflict now.
Otherwise, if they continue to fight, even if they get rid of the Tianxia Alliance and Wei Yi, they will probably only injure the enemy by 1,000 and lose 800 by themselves, which is not worth the loss.
Their real purpose is not to control the country, but to seize the national destiny and dragon vein.
As long as the national destiny and dragon vein are captured, this country will be meaningless to them.
"We must speed up our plans next and take action on New Year's Eve at the latest. We can't wait any longer!" Emperor Yanshun said.
"But Headmaster, your cultivation level..."
"I don't have time to worry about so much. I'm worried that the long nights and dreams may affect our plans. We need to rest and recuperate during this period to accumulate strength. Elder Huicang and the others should hurry up." We have come back from Xuanzang Mountain, and when the time comes we will work together to seize the Martial God Seals from the three major families, and then start planning." Emperor Yanshun said with a solemn expression.
...
Wei Yi took Elder Zifeng directly to Tianxia Villa, which was their pre-arranged meeting place.
At this time, Deputy Alliance Leader Yang, Deputy Alliance Leader Song and others had also returned, and Elder He had also been imprisoned in the dungeon of Tianxia Villa.
However, when everyone saw Elder Zifeng, who had a bruised nose and swollen face and was beyond recognition, they looked strange.
Deputy Alliance Leader Yang said with a surprised look on his face: "Deputy Alliance Leader Wei, this person...is...Elder Zifeng?" "
Haha, I'm really sorry, I was a bit harsh before, but give her some pills to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. You should be able to recover soon with the medicine." Wei Yi smiled awkwardly.
The elder Zifeng in front of him is indeed a bit difficult to identify.
Hearing Wei Yi's words, Elder Zifeng really sent his greetings to the eighteenth generation of his ancestors.
Your front teeth have been knocked out, and your nose and brow bones have been broken. Unless you rely on magic to repair them slowly, you can't recover naturally at all.
But now that my magic power has been sealed, I can only rely on the body's self-healing. I don't know what kind of recovery it will be like in the end.
It is estimated that 80% of the face will be disfigured.
"Deputy Leader Wei is really merciless!" Deputy Leader Yang smiled.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that Wei Yi was really cruel.
The most beautiful elder of the Celestial Sect, one of the top experts in the late Golden Core Realm, was actually beaten into this state.
But...well done!
And to everyone's delight, Wei Yi actually did what he said.
He actually single-handedly destroyed the Taoist temple in Lingshui City and captured Elder Zifeng.
And seeing that he was unscathed, Elder Zifeng was beaten into a human shape, which shows how terrifying his strength is.
I am afraid that even the headmaster of Tianren Sect may not be his opponent.
I just don’t know who is stronger or weaker between the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Man Sect and Wei Yi.
But no matter what, the fact that their Tianxia Alliance can have a peerless powerhouse like Wei Yi makes me feel much more at ease.
Now that they have captured two elders of the Celestial Being Sect, they are really qualified to negotiate with the Celestial Being Sect this time.
As long as they hold Elder Zifeng in their hands, they believe that the Tianren Sect will obediently release their people.
This time they were able to save the day, and perhaps give their allies and supporters more confidence.
I believe that the dawn of victory is just around the corner. "Deputy Leader Wei is really powerful. We spent a lot of effort to catch Elder He. You caught Elder Zifeng effortlessly. You are really powerful!" "Yes, you destroyed it all by yourself
. The second great Taoist view of the Celestial Being Sect really makes us feel inferior. In the future, with Deputy Wei of our Tianxia Alliance, we will definitely be able to completely clear out the traitors of the Celestial Being Sect and reorganize the country!" "It's really thanks to this time
. With Deputy Alliance Leader Wei here, he can turn the tide and reverse the situation, not only helping us survive the disaster, but also dealing a severe blow to the Tianren Sect. Now that we have Elder Zifeng in our hands, we have the initiative!"
"That's right, that's right. With a strong and wise man like Deputy Alliance Leader Wei, our Great Yan Dynasty can be saved!" Everyone
slapped Wei Yi's rainbow fart, if it weren't for the vocabulary that limited their words.
It is estimated that each of them is good at water... and can say thousands of words to praise Wei Yi.
Of course, flattery is flattery, and that's what they really think in their hearts.
The strength shown by Wei Yi gave them real hope of defeating the Tianren Sect.
I also saw the hope that the Great Yan Dynasty would clear the clouds and see the sun.
Perhaps that day will not be far away, and the Great Yan Dynasty will surely prosper again, and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe.
The next day, Princess Shan Ruoshui entertained Wei Yi alone in Guiyun Manor.
When he saw Wei Yi again, Shan Ruoshui also noticed Wei Yi's changes and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
I always feel that Wei Yi today seems to be very different from that night.
Both his appearance and temperament seemed to have become more otherworldly, like an immortal.
The skin was as delicate and smooth as crystal, making even a woman like her envious.
The face is like an exquisite painting, and every line is as perfect as a work of art.
While talking and laughing, they were even more elegant and touching.
If I say that when I first saw Wei Yi, I felt astonished.
At this moment, it felt like he was the immortal from the Nine Heavens.
It actually made Shan Ruoshui feel a little nervous and pressure in his heart.
It was as if the Wei Yi in front of him was the superior one, and he had become the commoner with a low eyebrow.
He actually became a little nervous when he spoke.
However, Shan Ruoshui quickly adjusted. She did not dwell on the changes in Wei Yi's appearance and temperament, nor did she ask any questions.
He just thanked Wei Yi properly and promised to eliminate the traitors in the future and reorganize the court, and he would definitely make Wei Yi king.
Although in her opinion, Wei Yi may not care about this secular kingship.
But thinking about it, he still has family, so this kind of reward is still very attractive to his family.
After all, apart from being crowned king, she really didn't know what kind of reward she could give that would be worthy of Wei Yi's achievements.
Moreover, he is so powerful that he probably would not look down upon ordinary treasures at all.
"Then Wei will thank the princess first!" Wei Yi did not pretend to be polite, but accepted it happily.
After all, he also knows that accepting it happily is the greatest respect for others.
Moreover, the title of Marquis and Prime Minister is the highest promise Shan Ruoshui can give at present.
"By the way, thanks to Deputy Alliance Wei this time, the Tianren Sect has released one of our deputy leaders and asked him to bring news. Two days later, they want to negotiate with us in Shangyang City. It seems that the Tianren Jiao Zhen chose to compromise!" Shan Ruoshui said with a smile.
"Oh? Are they so anxious? Haha, it seems that this time it really hurts them!" Wei Yi smiled slyly.
He knew very well that the Tianren Sect's initiative to negotiate meant that his side had taken the initiative.
And he was so restless and impatient.
It seems that Elder Zifeng is really important to the Tianren Sect.
But think about it, Elder Zifeng is probably like a brother to the leader of Tianren Sect.
If it were Wei Qing who was captured, he would want to exchange it for her at all costs.
Therefore, it is obvious that Elder Zifeng is the weak spot of the leader of Tianren Sect.
What's more, even if those people from the Tianxia Alliance are let go, there won't be much harm to the Tianren Sect.
After all, these people have been fighting them for so many years, but they have never really threatened their roots.
On the contrary, Elder Zifeng's combat power is comparable to that of many deputy leaders of the Tianxia Alliance.
So purely from the perspective of strategic value.
Wei Yi also felt that the arrested members were not as important as Elder Zifeng.
"Yes, in this case, we have the initiative in the negotiation. We should be able to exchange Elder Zifeng for all our captured members!" Shan Ruoshui continued.
"Yeah, but my suggestion is not to rush for a while, ask our people to send news to the Tianren Sect, and let them take good care of our people. If there is one casualty, we will remove a limb from Elder Zifeng. .As for when the hostages will be exchanged, we have to wait until we notify you!" There was a hint of cunning in the corner of Wei Yi's mouth.
In his opinion, the identities of those arrested were all exposed.
Even if they were released, it would not be difficult for the Celestial Being Sect to turn around and kill them one by one.
Therefore, saving them is just out of friendship and cannot chill the hearts of allies.
On the contrary, Elder Zifeng is of great significance to the Tianren Sect.
It also plays an important role for the Tianxia Alliance.
As long as Elder Zifeng's book is in hand, it is equivalent to grasping the weakness of Tianren Sect.
It can contain the Celestial Being Sect very well.
At least they can be contained for a short period of time.
The sum total of those arrested members may not be able to play such a big role.
After hearing Wei Yi's words, Shan Ruoshui's eyes brightened a little, and his thoughts coincided with Wei Yi's.
Although she was in love, she could not abandon the core members who were captured.
But she also understood Elder Zifeng's strategic significance and understood Wei Yi's intentions.
Just like a general who leads an army into battle, his purpose is to repel the enemy.
In order to achieve this goal, he may sacrifice many subordinates.
Even knowing that they are going to die, they still have to do it.
If a general cares too much about the life and death of his soldiers.
They even gave up important strategic points in order to save some hostages who fell into the enemy's army.
Then he is definitely not worthy of being a general.
Because he should not only be responsible for his subordinates, but also be responsible for this country, this nation, and the overall situation.
The Tianxia Alliance is not a house, let alone a small gang.
They shoulder the heavy burden of eradicating the Tianren Sect, clearing out the traitors and traitors of the entire Great Yan Dynasty, clearing the air, and reorganizing the dynasty.
For this ultimate goal, even if all members of the Tianxia Alliance are sacrificed, they will not hesitate.
So there is no problem with Wei Yi's choice.
What's more, he didn't say he would never save those people, but he wanted to maximize the value of Elder Zifeng.
Using her to contain the Celestial Beings would actually give them more opportunities to breathe and adjust.
"Okay, I'll do as you say!" Shan Ruoshui raised his glass, "Deputy Leader Wei, I'd like to toast you!" ...
