Wu Wei ignored Liu Qingyun's complaints and advice: "Zheng Ya's disguise as the Prince of Donglin has been exposed, which means that Sheng Xiang is still causing trouble in Yanhai City."
On the contrary, Zheng Ya, relying on his status as the Prince of Donglin, created invincible armies and, as always, acted with impunity.
On what grounds, and for what purpose?
"Uh, Sheng Xiang has been exposing Zheng Ya's secrets all along, deliberately spreading rumors to sow discord and use others to do his dirty work."
Perhaps it was because he had been plotting his way to the world for over three years, only to be defeated by Zheng Ya in the end, and was unwilling to accept it, that he did this? Liu Qingyun believed that Sheng Xiang was unwilling to admit defeat and would definitely seize any opportunity to cause trouble and make things difficult for Zheng Ya.
We can't just throw away all the influence and informant network we've built up, can we?
Abandoning all the fruits of your labor is no different from sending yourself to your death.
Wu Wei shook her head and sighed dismissively: "Alas, Sheng Xiang is deceiving himself, unwilling to accept defeat, losing the big picture for small gains, and hoping to salvage the situation."
Unfortunately, what awaited him was a trap set by Xie Ming.
Once he suffers a second defeat, he will return to the Dark Yuan Dynasty and rebuild his strength.
"Isn't this the time when we have the opportunity to plot against the Dark Yuan Dynasty?"
"Wh-what? How could this be?" Liu Qingyun felt like she was listening to a foreign language and exclaimed that it was impossible.
Wu Wei said to himself, "The invincible army created by Zheng Ya is friendly with its members and has prepared a backup plan, so it can be turned against them and used by them at any time."
Otherwise, Xie Ming would not have allowed the emperor to send out 30,000 to 40,000 invincible troops from the northern border to fight against the Great Yan Dynasty, using them as cannon fodder to deplete the enemy's manpower.
This is why Zheng Ya abandoned the invincible army, placed it by the princess's side, and even made it an invincible force in the emperor's hands.
All that remains is for Zheng Ya to rise to power and issue a call to arms, and the invincible army will respond and launch a counterattack.
Should this princess ask him for an invincible army to conquer the Dark Yuan Dynasty?
As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher, and Wu Wei grew up after this battle.
Liu Qingyun was stunned by her words: "Princess, if that's really the case, how insidious is Zheng Ya?"
Now, Zheng Ya has transformed into the Prince of Donglin, creating an invincible army and sending it to various towns and cities in Jiangnan to eliminate dissidents.
Is he aiming to conquer the world?
"The Xie Ming that Zheng Ya spoke of, who used the emperor to command the feudal lords, may very well come true!" Wu Wei once again uttered this shocking statement.
This startled Liu Qingyun, who shivered in the cold wind: "This, this isn't right."
Xie Ming is an unassuming person; how could he possibly hold the emperor hostage to command the feudal lords? Wouldn't that make the emperor appear too incompetent?
"That's because Xie Ming was too well hidden. He never showed his fangs from beginning to end, but only secretly built up his power, waiting for an opportunity to counter Sheng Xiang, and playing dumb with the emperor."
When masters from all over the world gather in Salt Sea City to seize the Dai Clan's secret realm, that is when Xie Ming will fully unfold his plans and lay out his strategy for the world.
No one stopped Xie Ming's actions, so it was only natural that Xie Ming would seize the opportunity to use the emperor to command the other lords!
"The emperor has become a puppet, losing the support of his entourage to protect him, and then losing control of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Demon-Suppressing Array. He has become a prisoner. If he doesn't want to die, he has no choice but to cooperate with Xie Ming and become a puppet emperor!" Wu Wei explained with self-deprecation.
Zheng Ya had already seen through all of this.
Xie Ming is like a venomous snake in hiding; once he strikes, he will surely kill, hitting the victim's weak point.
By intercepting Shengxiang's strategic plan and tailoring it to individual circumstances, they cut off Shengxiang's path to rise.
Then, he would seize the opportunity to instigate Wu Wei and Zheng Ya to target Sheng Xiang, using them as pawns to kill him, so that Xie Ming could use the emperor to command the princes, sit back and watch the tigers fight, and wait for an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Insidious and shameless, they will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
Wu Wei grew angrier the more she thought about it, regretting that she hadn't crossed over to the other world with them, thus missing the initiative and feeling resentful about the defeat.
Liu Qingyun was stunned: "Princess, what should we do if this happens?"
"I'll make cucumber salad and smash it on everyone I see." Wu Wei muttered to herself, having made up her mind, but Liu Qingyun was dumbfounded: "Princess, are you going to be Zheng Ya's pawn and help him conquer the Dark Yuan Dynasty?"
“Zheng Ya has ulterior motives. He is using the Dai Clan’s Secret Realm as bait to set me up and prevent me from competing with him for the Dai Clan’s Secret Realm.”
It was also his intention to distance himself from me and expel me from the country, so that I would have one less competitor.
This is also a great opportunity to attack the Dark Yuan Dynasty.
"Sheng Xiang was able to capture the Sky Hunter Legion from the Dark Yuan Dynasty, so I, the princess, am much stronger than him. Humph!" Wu Wei was very angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Liu Qingyun was distressed: "Princess, our attack on the Dark Yuan Dynasty is tantamount to cutting off Sheng Xiang's escape route and forcing him to his death."
I'm worried that Sheng Xiang won't be able to defeat Zheng Ya or Xie Ming, so he'll turn his attention to the princess!
Isn't this just another example of Zheng Ya using someone else to do his dirty work? He has no good intentions!
"Sheng Xiang was able to scavenge a Sky Hunter Legion within the Dark Yuan Dynasty tribes, without any further reinforcements, which indicates that other forces within the Dark Yuan Dynasty are hostile towards him as an outsider."
The Dark Origin Mountain region lacks places for large armies to gather and train; it is mostly populated by tribal groups.
This situation gave Shengxiang the opportunity to raid tribes and seize the Sky Hunter Legion in the early stages. If he wanted to develop and grow stronger, he would face the encirclement and suppression by the Dark Yuan Dynasty's allied army.
Therefore, with the Dark Yuan army gathering, it might be more dangerous for Sheng Xiang to go back than to stay here.
"This is my chance to invade the Dark Yuan!" Wu Wei calculated with full confidence, unaware of her psychic abilities.
In fact, even her benevolent soul body only recently awakened her psychic abilities, possessing the foundation for a rise, which is why she dared to go to Jiangnan to pick up bargains.
While others may not know that all those who cross realms possess equal talent and strength, and that this is one of the principles of competition in the realms, Wu Wei is fully aware of this.
Previously, I had doubts. Zheng Ya possessed three superpowers, so why was I so bad, possessing only one fire-type superpower, which was awakened by Zheng Ya, and it didn't conform to the principle of crossing realms.
At this moment, Wu Wei realized that the evil soul lurking in her sea of consciousness retained its own special soul root, and that she was not inferior to others.
Only by ensuring equal competition based on talent and ability can the progress of those who cross boundaries be promoted.
Sheng Xiang and Xie Ming had crossed over into the other world more than three years earlier, proving that their talent and strength were somewhat inferior to Wu Wei and Zheng Ya.
That's enough, Wu Wei was very confident.
But Liu Qingyun was so frightened that her face turned pale and then purple: "Princess, why don't we observe her a little longer?"
"At the very least, we should wait until the Northern Frontier's core forces arrive before making any decisions..."
"No need, there will be a good show tonight."
Some people couldn't wait for the Dai family to be beheaded and displayed in the market tomorrow; their plan to break into the prison and seize the Dai family's secret realm was tonight. Wu Wei was very interested in Zheng Ya's entrapment scheme.
This is a contest between those who cross boundaries.
In Wu Wei's view, the rumors circulating outside that Zheng Ya was a fake Prince of Donglin proved that Sheng Xiang had fallen into madness and had resorted to such a desperate measure.
Although this aligns with the principle of winning hearts and minds, Zheng Ya is least afraid of winning hearts and minds!
On the contrary, Zheng Ya ignored everything and focused solely on creating an invincible army, sending it to towns outside Yanhai City to eliminate dissidents and quell rebellions, thus building momentum and winning over the hearts of the people.
It's only a matter of time before the entire Jiangnan region becomes a unified entity.
So, Sheng Xiang, who is like a grasshopper trapped under an iron plate, would be walking into a snare if he didn't leave now.
Liu Qingyun, unaware of Wu Wei's thoughts, noticed a large ship on the river with strings of lights and became agitated: "Princess, look at those ship lights, there must be hundreds of them..."
"Haha, just as I thought! You didn't keep this princess waiting in vain. Zheng Ya, you're in for a good show..." Wu Wei gloated, rubbing her hands together as she walked down the hill towards the large ship, ready to snag a great bargain...
