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

The identity of the man in the sky-blue armor was revealed with Zheng Gong's shout: he was none other than Han Jiang, the deputy commander of the Boundless Army!

The commander of the Boundless Army had already followed the Sword Master on his expedition 100,000 years ago. The deputy commander Hanjiang, who stayed behind, naturally became the supreme commander of the Boundless Army. At the same time, he ultimately chose to collude with the Zheng family.

Or rather, he was among the first to join the Zheng family; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to serve as the deputy commander of the Wubian Army, which was mainly composed of the Zheng family.

Moreover, he didn't join the Zheng family for nothing; he had already become a saint, which was why he chose to join them.

If he hadn't betrayed Xinwu, he didn't know how many more years he would have had to wait to advance to Saint. Fortunately, he has now achieved his goal. Moreover, according to the pre-planned strategy, Saint is not his end point. In the future, he can advance to Heavenly King, or even Half-Emperor.

As for becoming an Emperor, he doesn't dare to think about it yet. He'll wait until he breaks through to the Heavenly King level. It's impossible for him to think about becoming an Emperor before he's even reached the Heavenly King level.

Moreover, the master he had pledged allegiance to had not yet been promoted to Emperor, so how could it be his turn? Instead of daydreaming, he should think about something practical.

"In that case, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"As for the preparations you mentioned, haven't we been preparing all along?"

Vice Commander Han Jiang declared emphatically, "We have waited for this day for ten thousand years, prepared for it for ten thousand years..."

"Now, tens of thousands of troops are already on high alert, ready to march at any moment!!"

"With just a single command, we can conquer the world!"

As Han Jiang spoke, he exuded confidence and radiance, as if he were invincible as long as his Boundless Army remained.

To be honest, his words, combined with his sky-blue armor and his imposing aura, really gave off the feeling of a god descending to earth.

Zheng Gong raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised, yet it made sense. He nodded: "Well, then let's do it this way."

The situation of Fan Wei and the others is still uncertain, and Zheng Gong didn't want to say anything more. There was no point in saying more. He waved his hand, signaling Han Jiang to leave and not disturb him.

Han Jiang glanced at Zheng Gong first, then lowered his head and left the main hall without a word.

Ultimately, the Zheng family is the master; he is merely one of the thousands who have pledged allegiance to them.

Although the sages are powerful, the Zheng family has more than just one or two under their command. Including him, there are conservatively estimated to be more than ten. He is not entirely sure of the exact number. Not to mention the distant past, there are three in the Boundless City alone: ​​himself, Zheng Gong, and a guardian demon plant whose true form is a peach tree.

Just think, there are three in one main city alone, how many in the other main cities?

Although not all major cities betrayed Xinwu, he knew of several major cities that had already participated. Therefore, there were definitely more than ten Saints on their side, and even a few Heavenly Kings.

Even if it didn't happen before, over the years, among the saints of 100,000 years ago, there must have been some who broke through, but we don't know exactly how many.

Knowing the Zheng family's strength, Han Jiang, the deputy commander, adopted a humble attitude when facing Zheng Gong. Not to mention, Zheng Gong's father and younger brother are a Heavenly King and a Half-Emperor, respectively. Either of them could easily kill him. Therefore, it was better to recognize his own position.

Having chosen to betray Xinwu, the only option left is to cling tightly to the Zheng family.

As long as the Zheng family can rise to prominence and achieve great success, he can be considered a founding hero who has contributed to the nation's rise to power, and the Zheng family father and son will not mistreat him.

Besides, he was from Wubian City, which meant he was of impeccable lineage and a direct descendant of the Zheng family. Compared to others, he actually had an advantage.

······

Within the same time period.

Similar dialogues and scenes to those in the Borderless City also take place in other major cities, such as Hurricane City and Star River City.

Like the Boundless City, they also realized that there was a problem with the people they sent out. However, their final decision was almost identical to that of the Boundless City: to wait and see.

And so, another day passed.

On this day, although the ancient cities were thousands of miles apart, their atmosphere was surprisingly consistent—solemn.

Extremely solemn!

Whether on the upper or lower floors, everyone wore a stern face, their expressions so grim they seemed to drip with gloom. This made those below afraid to even breathe, lest they invite trouble.

It was in this tense and solemn atmosphere that the top officials of the main cities quickly convened a meeting.

The meeting was very simple, mainly about investigating the cause of death of Fan Wei and others, who their enemies were, and how they should deal with the situation next.

Hurricane City.

Inside the huge conference room, everyone sat upright with serious expressions, creating an extremely somber atmosphere.

"So, have you found out where they disappeared?"

From the head seat, Zheng Yu spoke. His tone was very calm, and his expression was also very composed, as if nothing had happened. Anyone who didn't know better would think that he had only lost a few lackeys.

As he spoke, everyone became increasingly nervous, their hearts pounding and their muscles tensing, as if they were about to rush to the scene.

As soon as Zheng Yu finished speaking, everyone looked at each other. Finally, a man in golden armor stepped forward helplessly and said, "Reporting to my lord, according to the information we have found so far, Fan Wei and the others disappeared while crossing the Tianxing Sea."

"Someone saw them fly into the Tianxing Sea, probably heading to Tianxing City. However, no one has seen them since then. Our people have also searched the sea, but in the end... we found nothing."

After listening, Zheng Yu nodded calmly, indicating that Jin Jia could sit down, and then his fingers began to tap rhythmically on the table.

However, each of his strikes was like a heavy hammer blow, striking the hearts of the crowd with a dull, oppressive force; those with weaker strength felt as if their hearts were about to explode.

Although it wasn't the first time they had witnessed Zheng Yu's strength, they still couldn't help but be shocked, and they felt that Zheng Yu's strength had improved again.

Zheng Yu casually demonstrated his skills before stopping.

He glanced at everyone but said nothing.

He did this because he noticed that everyone was panicked after learning that Fan Wei and his group had been wiped out, and some were even afraid. Therefore, he had to demonstrate his strength to give everyone a boost of morale.

This behavior is practically saying, "With me here, what's there to be afraid of?"

As expected, under Zheng Yu's intimidation, everyone in the conference room returned to their previous confident state. Although the number, strength, and origin of the enemy were unknown, they had Zheng Yu!

They didn't believe that there was anyone stronger than Zheng Yu in the Silver Moon, except for the Red Moon Emperor.

It can be said that, ignoring the Red Moon Emperor, Zheng Yu is invincible; he is the number one in the world, and no one can stop him.

Yes, that's what they think...

"My lord, what should we do now?"

Beside him, a gold-armored bureau chief asked.

Unlike before, his tone was much lighter now, and his words were filled with confidence.

Zheng Yu glanced at him and said calmly, "Continue investigating, and then... wait!"

Everyone hesitated: "This..."

Zheng Yu looked around and asked, "Do you have any other better ideas?"

To reiterate, even if they wanted to do something, the limits of the universe are there, and they simply cannot do anything. All beings above the pinnacle are trapped in the ruins and cannot leave.

Therefore, all they could do was let the intelligence personnel outside continue their investigation, while they waited quietly for the world to recover further.

Since no one could think of a better solution, the meeting ended quickly, and everyone dispersed, leaving Zheng Yu alone in the meeting room.

Looking at the empty conference room, Zheng Yu's face gradually darkened. Despite his calm demeanor just now, he knew that the actual situation was worse than others imagined!

Putting aside things far away, there's something right now that's giving him a huge headache and making him furious.

That means... someone has blocked the Great Dao Universe!!

His long-planned Great Dao Universe was seized by someone else first, which is simply unforgivable!

At the same time, he also realized that the unknown enemy was much more powerful than he had imagined, and that the other party had already taken the lead.

"Li Daoheng, is this your doing? You've kept a low profile for so many years, couldn't resist making a move after all?"

"Heh, I thought you were so aloof, but I didn't expect you to be even more anxious than me."

"I'll let you go first. The one who laughs last laughs best! Leaving first doesn't necessarily mean winning. The Great Dao Universe is mine. I'll leave it with you for now, but I'll take it back sooner or later!"

Yes, Zheng Yu couldn't think of any other possibility besides Li Daoheng.

He first ruled out Tianji, this eternal recluse, who would never make a move. If Tianji were to make a move, they wouldn't have had to scheme so much; he could have ended everything 100,000 years ago.

Next to be eliminated is the Crimson Moon Emperor. Although he has absorbed a lot of Crimson Moon power, he is not yet capable of opening the Great Dao Universe, let alone occupying it.

Look, after eliminating the two least likely candidates, only one remains: Li Daoheng.

[Li Daoheng: You son of a bitch, what do you call this? This is called sitting at home and getting blamed from the sky!]

Okay, if it weren't for Yun Jie and the others being an outsider, Zheng Yu's guess wouldn't be wrong. But what no one expected was that someone would cheat using the system and actually come all the way from another universe. Tell me, who could withstand that?

Zheng Yu is the only one who doesn't know this yet, otherwise he would be completely devastated right now!

what! ?

The peaches I painstakingly planned for 100,000 years have actually been picked by someone?!

This is absolutely outrageous!

Wait, you're saying he could crush me with one hand?

Okay, okay, he can have all the peaches! (Funny...)

······

On the other side, in Tianxing City.

After dealing with that group of top experts, Su Yu and his two companions returned here.

The situation in the city was even more chaotic than the day before, with street brawls happening all the time.

This is no exaggeration. You have to know that Tianxing City has a permanent population of 100 million, and it is a mixed bag of all kinds of people.

Previously, with the royal family and the Nine Departments acting as powerful figures overhead, no one dared to make any significant moves. Now that these ten powerful figures have inexplicably disappeared, those who had been holding back for so long could no longer resist jumping out.

Of course, this group of people was undoubtedly aided by those with ulterior motives, such as the three major organizations, the seven sacred mountains, and some ancient martial arts families.

It is worth noting that there are also relics involved, but they are well hidden. In addition, few people know that some relics have been revived, so no one suspects the relics.

"This farce should end..."

Night falls and the bright moon hangs high in the sky.

High in the sky, Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his white robe fluttering in the cold wind. He calmly looked down, then turned his head to look at the blue sky beside him, and said softly, "Blue Sky, let's begin. I will suppress them all within a day and restore order to Tianxing City!"

"Great! No problem at all!" Lan Tian nodded with a smile.

The next moment, countless blue-sky clones within the city sprang into action, causing unrest among the various forces within the city. The quiet night was shattered, and in an instant, flames erupted everywhere, creating a massive spectacle.
