"Um... but I don't know when Qinghe was discovered following the Yi Clan army?" Qingyun actually took out a pen and notebook and began to record in detail.
...
"So, your purpose in coming here is to have our Liang clan arrange a place for the fugitives your investigation team brought from the Near Western Continent to settle down? Sending Qinghe back is just a side matter?"
Qingyun asked very detailed questions, and Wang Yao had no intention of hiding his purpose for coming to the Liang tribe. So, after a few exchanges, Qingyun found out all of Wang Yao's motives and reasons for coming to the Liang tribe.
“You could say that. I still have a lot of work to do in the Yi Clan. If it weren’t for the sudden incident in the Western Continent and the lack of skilled investigators in our investigation team, even if I knew Qinghe was your Liang Clan’s princess, I wouldn’t have had time to personally send her back,” Wang Yao nodded.
"Well... Mr. Matchmaker, I regret to inform you that your accusations against the monkey tribe are unlikely to gain support within our tribe. Furthermore, I'm afraid the chieftain will not agree to set aside a special area to accommodate refugees from the outer continent."
"Although you rescued Princess Qinghe, I must say, your mission to the Liang tribe is likely to fail." Qingyun shook his head, stood up, and tossed the Yi tribe's travel document on the table to Wang Yao.
“Mr. Qingyun, I hope to meet with the patriarch of the noble family. This matter concerns the future of the noble family, and it is no exaggeration to say that it affects the life and death of the noble family. I hope that you can be responsible to the noble family and let the patriarch make a judgment on this matter personally.”
Even after receiving the clearance documents, Wang Yao was still unwilling to give up and hoped to meet with the Liang tribe chief to try and persuade him again.
“I’m sure any member of our Liang clan has a much stronger sense of responsibility towards their clan than any of you celestial beings from the Heavenly Court,” Qingyun sneered. “However, I will still report our conversation. As for whether the clan leader will see you, that depends on your luck.”
After Qingyun finished speaking, he nodded politely to Wang Yao, then left Wang Yao alone in the room and walked out on his own.
Wang Yao sat on the chair for a while, then ran to the door of the room, pushed it open and looked outside. There were no foxes guarding the door, and the entire corridor was empty, as if he had been abandoned here by the foxes. He suspected that these foxes probably did not take what he said seriously at all.
In that case, there's no point in him staying in the Liang tribe any longer. He might as well hurry up and find a way to get to the Shu tribe. He's wasting his time here. Caixia is heading towards the Dongchuan Continent step by step. He has to find a place before they arrive.
Just as he was about to set off, he remembered what Director Hu Jin had mentioned about the Heavenly Court's office in the Demon Realm. He immediately thought it would be best to contact the fairy again. He pressed the button on his earpiece and activated his "spiritual sense" to survey his surroundings.
Finding that no one was eavesdropping, Wang Yao then called out softly.
"Fairy Maiden, Fairy Maiden..."
After a short while, a noisy electrical sound came through the earpiece; the call had been connected to the fairy.
"Is that you, Xiao Wang?"
"It's me. I'm currently in Liangzu Nandu City. Negotiating with these foxes is a bit difficult; they're too suspicious..."
“It’s normal to have difficulties. If you can’t get through the official channels, you can think about ways to get things done through the people. For example, you could find some civilians to rent a piece of land, like a large farm. Get the resettlement location sorted out first, and then you can deal with the officials later.” The fairy godmother suggested a solution from the other side.
"No... Fairy, please listen to me first. Today, during negotiations with the Liang Clan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they mentioned the Heavenly Court's office in the Demon Realm, saying that they have a good relationship with the office. Do you have any contact with the office? If so, why don't you ask them to think of a solution?" Wang Yao asked.
“We have no contact with the office for the time being. You must remember this: I suspect that some immortals in the office may have been possessed by spirits.” The fairy’s voice suddenly became low.
"Wh...what?" Wang Yao was taken aback.
“We have discovered that some of the immortals in the office have close ties with the monkey tribe, and are even assisting them in forming a tribal alliance,” the fairy maiden added.
"But... what about the office director?" Wang Yao asked quickly. The office director was an immortal of the level of Lu Xian; he shouldn't be easily defeated by a spirit.
“I still haven’t seen Ao Xian, and I can’t get in touch with him either. He has a strange personality, and even if I did see him, he might not be able to help me. It would be a blessing if he could avoid being possessed by a spirit,” the fairy said.
“But… Fairy, I think the situation in the demon realm is really not optimistic. Why don’t we apply to the Heavenly Court for celestial soldiers to come down and wipe out the monkey clan all at once? Can we really manage to mess around here?” Wang Yao was having second thoughts.
"You think I didn't apply to the higher-ups? As soon as I saw that things weren't going well at the office, I reported it to the Star Lord and suggested that at least Li Jing's tribulation-responding team be sent down as well. But the higher-ups said that there was an agreement between the Heavenly Court and the Demon Realm back then, and the Heavenly Court was not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the Demon Realm."
"Therefore, the Heavenly Court cannot participate in the inter-clan wars of the demon realm. Even we, as long as we are within the system, cannot go to the front lines to help the demon realm clans fight. Otherwise, if the demons discover this and report it, we will all be in trouble."
"The Star Lord said that we only need to arrest the suspects; we don't need to concern ourselves with the tribal wars at all," the fairy said angrily.
“This is not something we can just ignore. The spirit is hiding in the monkey tribe and has already killed the immortals in the office. If we capture them, won’t we have to start a war with the monkey tribe?” Wang Yao said anxiously.
"The Star Lord said that those are two different things. If we obtain conclusive evidence of the Jingti and Eunuch Wei's collusion with the Hu tribe, then the Heavenly Court can certainly step in and demand that the Hu tribe hand them over. If the Hu tribe disobeys, the Heavenly Court can also take coercive measures."
