The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

······

······

Within the same time period.

Daxuan Palace.

Upon receiving the news that Su Yu had successfully become his disciple, Yun Jie revealed a strange smile. His relationship with Su Yu was currently in a mess.

The reason for this statement goes back 150 years.

Let's go back 150 years.

At that time, Yun Jie transformed into Ye Batian and emerged out of nowhere, dominating the contemporary era.

Yes, this time Ye Batian is played by Yun Jie, not Zhou Tianqi. Before Zhou Tianqi had that idea, Yun Jie's Ye Batian had already emerged.

The subsequent script is almost identical to Ye Batian in the original work. He first became famous as a prodigy, then became a disciple of the third generation under the spotlight, and then defeated Zhang Shan, the King of Burning Sea, with his near-invincible body, and took on disciples such as Liu Wenyan.

This led to the rise of the polytheistic script system to its zenith, and also made the relationship between humans and other races, as well as the situation on the battlefield of the heavens, even more tense.

And in the end, he faked his death to escape.

Along with Zhou Tianyuan, the young king of Zhou, also faked his death, because Zhou Tianqi had already realized that something was wrong and that there was a traitor among the invincible human race!

But he couldn't say it outright, so he arranged for Zhou Tianyuan to fake his death and escape. This would allow him to take the opportunity to prove his Dao and also allow him to retreat behind the scenes to observe who the traitor was.

Of course, although Yun Jie transformed into Ye Batian, he was not as heartless as Zhou Tianqi. He was supposed to save the tragedy, but Yun Jie was left in ruins.

For example, the Liu family, which should have been destroyed by the Burning Sea King, is also a way for Yun Jie to make amends to Liu Wenyan.

Although he did not let Liu Wenyan inherit his divine script at the time, it was all Liu Wenyan's own decision. However, everyone thought that Ye Batian would be the key figure to unlock the suppression power of the human realm, so many people coveted his divine script. Therefore, Liu Wenyan took the risk of incorporating Ye Batian's divine script into his sea of ​​will.

This also led to the "fall" of Liu Wenyan, a peerless genius. Otherwise, with Liu Wenyan's talent, he would have at least reached the Sun and Moon realm within fifty years.

······

Closer to home.

Since Ye Batian is the incarnation of Yun Jie, then Hong Tan is actually his disciple, and Bai Feng is Hong Tan's disciple, making him Yun Jie's grand-disciple. Therefore, Su Yu instantly becomes Yun Jie's grand-disciple.

That's why I said the relationships are a bit messy.

Yun Jie went from being a grandfather to a patriarch in an instant.

Just then, Su Long walked over. "Dad, what's making you laugh so happily?"

Yun Jie placed the information about Su Yu on the table, saying, "Take a look for yourself."

Half a day later.

Su Long put down the intelligence report with a serious expression and said solemnly, "Dad, this doesn't look like a good thing at all, does it? How can you laugh like this? You can't push your grandson into a fire pit."

After reading the intelligence on the table, Su Long had a general understanding of the struggle between the single-divine script lineage and the multi-divine script lineage within the Great Xia Prefecture. No matter how you looked at it, the multi-divine script lineage had no chance of turning the tide. If Su Yu were to become Bai Feng's disciple at this time, wouldn't that be like boarding a pirate ship that could capsize at any moment?

"What's the rush? Didn't I teach you to see through appearances to the essence? Do you think you're the only one who knows that these two factions are fighting? Everyone knows it, but why hasn't the Great Xia Prefecture intervened? Have you thought about that?"

"This……"

Su Long was speechless for a moment. "Could it be that the Great Xia Prefecture deliberately turned a blind eye? Why would they do that?"

Yun Jie explained, "This involves more than just the Great Xia Prefecture; it's the result of a power struggle among several parties. Xia Longwu is about to attain enlightenment, and the Great Xia Prefecture is not prepared to turn against other forces. Everything is focused on Xia Longwu's enlightenment. That's the Great Xia Prefecture's plan. Of course, it's not just for that reason; there are also some hidden secrets involved."

Seeing that Yun Jie had no intention of continuing, Su Long quickly pressed, "What secret?"

Yun Jie glanced at him indifferently, "You're too weak. I'll tell you when you reach the Sun and Moon realm."

However, by the time Su Long breaks through to the Sun and Moon realms, the myriad realms will probably have already been pacified.

Moreover, many secrets will be revealed one by one before that.

Su Long wasn't really concerned about the "single vs. multiple" debate; he only cared about one thing: Su Yu. "Will A Yu really be alright?"

Snapped!

Yun Jie immediately slapped Su Long on the back of the head.

"Don't you trust me, your grandfather? You've asked me again and again. Do you think I'd just stand by and watch him fall into danger?"

Su Long muttered under his breath, "Who knows? Don't you big shots just like to put on these kinds of tests?"

Yun Jie kicked him, "Do you really think I can't hear you?!"

Then Yun Jie pondered for a moment and said, "I think you have a point. Since you said I set a test for my grandson, then you, as his father, cannot be an exception."

Yun Jie pinched his chin with two fingers, pondered for a moment, and then said, "How about this, starting today, the Royal Palace will suspend your resource supply. Tomorrow, you'd better get back to the battlefield of the heavens and fight the enemy, exchanging your merits for resources. I'll just let you exchange at a slightly higher rate. Is that considered a preferential treatment?"

"What do you think, Lord Su?"

As Yun Jie's adopted son, Su Long was given the title of Marquis by Yun Jie, which was also a way of showing his status.

Upon hearing Yun Jie's arrangement for him, Su Long's expression changed drastically. Had he shot himself in the foot?

He immediately ran to Yun Jie's side with a shrewd grin and said obsequiously, "Dad, I accidentally farted just now. Please forgive me!"

Su Long was also helpless. His cultivation level was already far behind Lin Xuan's, and it was not easy for him to catch up. If Yun Jie cut off his resource supply, how long would it take him to catch up with Lin Xuan? He had just told Lin Xuan last night that they would grow old together. He didn't want to be the one who got old first.

"Realizing your mistake now? Too bad. It's too late. Go back to the battlefield and kill the enemy, Lord Su!"

Yun Jie is gone.

Standing there, Su Long felt like crying. He knew that once Yun Jie made a decision, he would never go back on it. Unless he could persuade Jiang Yao, Yun Jie might be able to retract his order. Otherwise, he would have to obediently pack his bags and leave.

But getting Jiang Yao to step in is easier said than done.

Therefore, Su Long had already resigned himself to his fate.

······

The next day.

early morning.

The gate of the Great Xuan King's Mansion creaked open, and three people walked out: one man and two women.

The man was very tall, standing at 1.9 meters, with a robust build and a resolute face that also carried a hint of helplessness.

The man was Su Long. He had originally planned to stay at home for two days before going to the Battlefield of All Heavens, but he was woken up early in the morning by Yun Jie, who urged him to hurry up and go to the Battlefield of All Heavens.

He was accompanied by his wife, Lin Xuan, and his elder sister, Yun Ying.

Lin Xuan and Su Long had been separated for many years. Now that they were reunited, they were unwilling to part easily. Therefore, she asked to go to the battlefield of the heavens with Su Long and join the army with him. Although she had not experienced actual combat, her cultivation level was still there. No matter which legion she joined, people would wholeheartedly agree.

Yun Ying accompanied them mainly to protect them, since the battlefield of the heavens was far too dangerous; if they were not careful, the rescue would have been in vain.

Of course, Yun Ying wouldn't follow them all the time. When they arrived at the Battlefield of the Heavens, she would send a peak-level expert from one of the four legions to keep watch over the two of them. She would only need to keep an eye on them from time to time.

"Little brother, let's go, stop looking."

Yun Ying patted Su Long's shoulder with great ease, even her way of addressing him was quite unique, she seemed to be in a good mood, probably because she suddenly had another younger brother to bully.

Su Long looked at Yun Ying with a helpless expression. In the past two days, he had been shocked far more times than he had in the previous forty-eight years combined. He had also gotten used to the fact that this family members were several times his age, but looked younger than him.

Take Yunying for example. Although she is over two hundred years old, she still looks like an eighteen-year-old girl. She likes to jump around and is very lively. People who don't know her would never believe that she is actually over two hundred years old.

Snapped!

Su Long was struck hard on the head. Yun Ying was a Civilization Master, and with her cultivation level, she could clearly perceive Su Long's thoughts. So Yun Ying gave him a "wake-up call".

Yun Ying looked at him with a smile: "Little brother, don't have any wild thoughts in front of someone whose cultivation is far superior to yours. It's easy for them to see through you. That's why your father doesn't tell you many things, because your cultivation is just too, too poor!"

"what!?"

Su Long had no idea that such a saying existed. In the past, these powerful figures were too far removed from him; they were from completely different worlds.

"Don't make any noises. Remember, you must be careful to control your thoughts in front of strong people in the future," Yun Ying earnestly instructed Su Long.

"I understand, sis."

Su Long nodded solemnly. He now realized how terrifying the strong were, that they could actually see into the deepest thoughts of others.

"Okay, I'll write that down. Now let's settle the score from earlier."

As she spoke, Yun Ying revealed a "ferocious" expression, her knuckles cracking loudly.

"Wh...what account?" Su Long retreated step by step.

"What were you thinking about me in your mind just now? Hmm?"

"Hey, don't hit me! I was wrong, sis!"

Bang bang bang!

Yun Ying gave Su Long a good beating, while Lin Xuan watched quietly without intervening, a smile on her face.

The family bickers and jokes together—that's what home feels like.

clap clap.

Yun Ying clapped her hands, looking like she wasn't quite done yet. "Alright, that's enough for this lesson. It'll teach you to respect your older sister from now on."

Su Long, his face bruised and swollen, stood up. "The chicken...is here."

Lin Xuan walked over, took Su Long's arm, and turned to Yun Ying, saying, "Let's go, sis."

"Yes, let's go! I'm finally free from this cage today! Hahaha!"

Su Long wanted to criticize her for being childish, but he quickly stopped himself. He was the kind of person who would remember a lesson, and having just been disciplined, he wouldn't make such a basic mistake again.

The three of them calmly made their way to the Heavenly Palace.

On the road.
