"That's why I'm here with you, Boss. If Tian Zhou can't protect me, can't you and all these senior figures behind you protect me?"
Bai Yulong spoke with a slightly obsequious tone, but this obsequiousness was not out of fear; rather, it was a playful and intimate remark that made people feel comfortable rather than disgusted.
Even Old Chen couldn't help but pat Bai Yulong on the shoulder, saying:
"The Yin-Yang Divine Child is quite sensible. You just need to follow the young master. With us protecting you, there will be no accidents."
Seeing this, Zhou Xingdou shook his head helplessly. However, even if Bai Yulong didn't come to his side, he couldn't help but protect Bai Yulong.
After all, Wan Tianzhou and Bai Yulong were already the most important members of Zhou Xingdou's top tier, and he could not allow them to be lost, whether from an emotional or practical standpoint.
At this moment, Wan Tianzhou was not paying attention to Zhou Xingdou and Bai Yulong's situation. His two Dao True Eyes were still locked on Wan Qianlong, and he saw that the upper eyelashes of the man's solemn face, which stood upright without bowing, trembled slightly.
"Now that you have seen the Great Way, why not worship?"
The sound seemed like a question, yet also like a statement, resounding like a morning bell and evening drum in Wan Qianlong's heart. For Wan Qianlong, who was already struggling to resist the desire to submit, this was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back.
thump!
A supreme will crushed Wan Qianlong's mind and body, and his body collapsed to the ground powerlessly, as if all his strength had been drained away.
Even though he was unwilling, even though he resisted fiercely, and had countless words he wanted to say, under this supreme will, all he could do was kneel in worship.
The Yin-Yang Cave Master's eyes trembled slightly as he watched this scene. To be honest, for a moment, he even wanted to take action against Wan Tianzhou and completely eliminate this enormous threat that had not yet grown up.
But he also understood that this was impossible. Not to mention that Wan Tianzhou was now protected by the power of the Great Dao of the Universe, he was also in the heart of the Universe, so there was absolutely no possibility of killing Wan Tianzhou.
Moreover, even if there were an opportunity, the first person to stop him would probably be his own foolish son. He had no doubt that his son would risk his life to shield Wan Tianzhou from his attack.
Looking at the kneeling elders and the hundreds of thousands of cultivators bowing down below the sacred platform, Wan Tianzhou felt no pride or sense of accomplishment.
Unless absolutely necessary, he would never draw upon the power of the Great Dao of the Universe, nor would he want to use the Dao to oppress people. In his eyes, persuading people with reason is the right way.
So although no one in the Holy Land of the Universe has any objections to him now, he feels helpless because this is not his own power, but just a trick, which he does not consider honorable.
But he absolutely could not allow Wan Qianlong to attack the Yin-Yang Cave Master, because if he did, all the efforts he and Zhou Xingdou had made would vanish in an instant.
This is also why Wan Qianlong completely ignores Wan Tianzhou, the Holy Lord.
The Yin-Yang Cave Master entered the Universal Sacred Land with Zhou Xingdou's carriage, and was summoned by Zhou Xingdou at this critical juncture. His purpose in coming here is self-evident.
Even if Wan Qianlong didn't kill the Yin-Yang Cave Master, but merely severely injured him and forced him to escape on the verge of death, the Yin-Yang Cave Master would definitely give up, and the army of Yin-Yang Cave Heaven would press in the next moment.
Even with all sorts of persuasion and obstruction, the struggle between the two factions will not be stopped, and all talk of peace will be utterly futile.
Unfortunately, no one expected that Wan Tianzhou would have the ability to guide the Great Dao of the Universe. Not to mention Wan Qianlong and the others, even the Holy Mother of the Universe and Zhou Xingdou, who knew that Wan Tianzhou was the incarnation of the Dao Fruit of the Universe, had no idea.
The Yin-Yang Cave Master also spoke solemnly at this moment:
"The new Holy Lord of the Universe is indeed a young hero; Yin Yang Cave Heaven has felt your sincerity."
Wan Tianzhou sat upright in the void, his radiance dazzling, showing no humility, and solemnly said:
"The war between the Holy Land of the Universe and the Yin-Yang Grotto Heaven has lasted too long, causing the people of the Primordial Dao Domain to live in misery and fear for their lives."
I do not wish for my disciples to die innocently in the war.
Unwilling to be subordinate, they received no benefit whatsoever, yet were swept up by the tide of events, resulting in the extinction of their clan and their own demise.
I do not wish for a prodigy to die silently in the crucible of blood and flesh before he could shine.
They did not want their future disciples to be corrupted by hatred.
"I do not wish for the glorious and bright path of the world to be filled with resentment."
Wan Tianzhou's words seemed to be addressed to the Yin-Yang Cave Master, but also to everyone present.
With the power of the Great Dao of the Universe empowered, Wan Tianzhou's words were solemn and contained a sense of compassion for all humanity, which was beyond the comprehension of outsiders.
However, those who were deeply involved, including the members of the Huanyu Sect and its affiliated forces, were so distraught that some were in tears and speechless.
The wars that have lasted for so many years have been so bitter. This kind of suffering is something that those in high positions who give orders cannot understand. Only those disciples and vassals who are not at the center of power can truly feel the pain.
For the elders of the Holy Lord Sect, the damage caused by war is just a series of numbers, but for them, it means their friends and even their relatives.
"The same applies to the Yin-Yang Grotto-Heaven!"
Upon hearing this, the Yin-Yang Cave Master couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. If the Holy Land of the Universe was like this, how could the Yin-Yang Cave Heaven be any different?
It was known that for many years, Yin Yang Cave Heaven had been at a disadvantage in the war with the Universal Holy Land, suffering even greater losses than the Universal Holy Land.
Although he, as the main force of Yin-Yang Cave, turned the tide, they could only barely achieve a balance of power.
However, the continuous wars have left the two immortal powers without a successor, and their power has not only failed to grow but has actually weakened over the years.
Moreover, during their war, a new immortal force emerged in the Tai Shi Dao Domain: the Pantheon.
The Pantheon emerged by taking a huge bite out of the two immortal powers and continued to profit from their wars, thus expanding its influence.
It can be said that in the war between the Holy Land of the Universe and the Yin-Yang Cave Heaven, neither side was a winner; the only winner was the Pantheon.
In this situation, anyone who can weigh the pros and cons would know that they cannot continue fighting.
Unfortunately, once the bloody battle begins, it is difficult to stop, especially with someone fanning the flames. Under normal circumstances, unless one side is completely wiped out, it is difficult to stop.
But now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which is why the Yin-Yang Cave Master took the initiative to go with Zhou Xingdou without him even having to say a word.
Looking at Wan Tianzhou and the Yin-Yang Cave Master, who were staring at each other but remained silent, Zhou Xingdou knew what he had to do.
Although both Wan Tianzhou and the Yin-Yang Cave Master now harbor a desire for peace, ideological biases still inevitably linger in their hearts.
The Yin-Yang Cave Master is not Bai Yulong, so Wan Tianzhou may speak frankly. They are all waiting for someone, or rather, a lubricant. Otherwise, whoever speaks first about peace talks at this time will be seen as giving in.
This lubricant is Zhou Xingdou, or perhaps the Zhou family behind him.
Because only the Zhou family is qualified to facilitate peace talks between the two sides, and the intervention of a third party can also reduce gossip within their respective sects.
