"That's right, what the sovereign needs is merely a super powerhouse at the heaven's chosen level! Your strength is superior, your status is advantageous, and once Tang Haofei changes his race, your only disadvantage will be gone! As for the matter of rebirth..."
"Do you think it matters whether a kitchen knife is made of steel or porcelain to a person?"
Indeed, it's not very important.
But this analogy is actually not quite appropriate.
"The demon lord's rebirth of you must have some considerations; the sovereign will also weigh this issue. This matter is already a fact, there's no way to argue against it. All you can do now is to do your best; the rest is up to fate."
Lin Haifeng sighed, seeming not optimistic about Wen Yu's future destiny, while Wen Yu just smiled casually.
Lin Haifeng guessed right; in the future, Wen Yu could even boldly step into the spotlight. Normally, he wouldn't need to consider the threat of the sovereign anymore.
But if he guessed wrong...
The eight avatars brought by Yahagi were enough to ensure Wen Yu's life was safe.
After all preparations were made, if things still slid toward the worst possible outcome, Wen Yu would have no good way out.
In front of the sovereign, Wen Yu could only do his part and leave the rest to fate...
"So, you might have to do more things in the future... For example, frequently appear in front of the public, give speeches expressing concerns for the country and the people, package yourself, and make it look good, showing a facade of taking the rise and fall of the world as your responsibility."
"Yes, go back and instruct the secretariat to prepare some more speeches for you. The sovereign's return time is uncertain; it's better to be early than late."
Lin Haifeng said this, and Wen Yu nodded in agreement.
"As for the issue of Tang Haofei..."
Fran stepped forward.
"Leave it to me. This matter will definitely have results within a week!"
...
Heavenly Palace Treasure Land.
The forward base that Beijing established in the Heavenly Palace still remained on the fifth layer of the Heavenly Palace. Although due to Tang Haofei, the Heavenly Palace had become "full of crises" to Beijing, Old Tang hadn’t stooped so low as to vent his anger on the forward base in Beijing since the earth's will was sealed five years ago, and Tang Haofei entered the Heavenly Palace Treasure Land.
"So, where is Tang Haofei?"
In response to Fran's question, the series-level expert in charge of all affairs of the Heavenly Palace Treasure Land provided the answer.
"Eighth layer of the Heavenly Palace, Divine Path Court ruins. We have never interrupted surveillance on Tang Haofei, but as you know, the power gap is there; we can't get more detailed information."
Under the premise that Wen Yu could not enter the treasure land, Tang Haofei was like a bug within the Heavenly Palace Treasure Land, with his perception covering most of the eighth layer of the Heavenly Palace. Not to mention practitioners, even a fly entering Tang Haofei's alert range would be immediately noticed by him.
He didn’t know that Wen Yu couldn’t enter the treasure land... Correspondingly, for the past five years, Old Tang had been on high alert, fearing Wen Yu might come to his door. How tough those days were is truly unimaginable.
Upon hearing this, Fran merely nodded. He roughly estimated Tang Haofei's perception area and then led Li Quan'an and a few others to a teleportation passage that was the farthest from Tang Haofei.
The group rushed through, crossing the eighth layer of the Heavenly Palace and heading straight for the tenth layer, until they arrived in front of a certain ruin of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, where Fran and the others finally stopped.
"Let's begin."
Fran said.
"Boom!"
Li Quan'an immediately took action, creating a large pit on the ground. Then, a few others quickly stepped up; those who could control the earth gathered nearby sand and stones, while those proficient in the architecture culture of the Immortal Heroic World carved and sculpted. In no time, a uniquely shaped but unremarkable miniature building stood among the many structures at the ruins of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance.
