Zhang Dafu was drinking tea; he was in a pretty good mood today.
Because Zhang Youzhao led his men to ambush the people of the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty, killing tens of thousands of Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty soldiers in one fell swoop.
Although this minor victory is insignificant in the struggle between the two superpowers, winning is still a good thing.
This proves that my offspring, Zhang Dafu's, are still quite good.
As long as he doesn't compare to the young master of the Ye family, this son isn't at the point where he needs to be killed.
At the same time, he was also aware that although the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty now seemed to be mobilizing troops and generals, as if it were about to start a full-scale war with the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect.
But we are still a long way from a full-scale war.
The war between the two super powers is not simply a contest of combat strength and resources; it also involves other forces.
If they were to launch a full-scale attack regardless of the consequences, even if they managed to wipe out the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect, the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty would never have another chance to return to its homeland.
Do you think that other sects and forces that have existed for over ten thousand years are all kind-hearted people who eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures?
They were all wicked, each more cunning than the last, their scheming unfathomable.
Therefore, before launching a full-scale war, the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty must do something to divide and win over others, thereby isolating the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect.
Zhang Dafu was well aware of this.
But the Zhang family's way of thinking is different from others.
Logically speaking, if the Yunqin Dynasty is lobbying other forces to unite and attack, thereby dividing up the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect, then the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect should also be trying to find allies to confront the Yunqin Dynasty head-on.
But the Zhang family never acted logically.
Or rather, outsiders have never been able to understand the Zhang family's logic.
Because Zhang Dafu directly ordered, "Go out and beat these sons of bitches to a pulp."
The "sons of bitches" he was referring to weren't just people from the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty, but included people from other forces who came to investigate the situation.
Anyone who dares to wander around the borders of my Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect will be crushed.
It doesn't matter which faction it comes from.
Knowing that those bastards from the Yunqin Dynasty wanted to start a war with me, they even sent people to try and win you over to fight me together.
And they even sent people to check my reaction! What the hell? If I don't mess with them, who will I mess with?
In Zhang Dafu's view, it was far more practical to teach them a lesson and make them fear him than to compete with the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty for an alliance with these bastards and let them extort money from him.
If I don't form alliances, you'll think I'm confident enough; if I attack you all together, you'll think I'm fearless and must have some trump cards up my sleeve.
The more arrogant I am, the less likely you bastards will dare to easily agree to the alliance request from the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty.
It's a business where you're afraid of both sides, so why shouldn't I do it and let you stay for the New Year?
Beat them! Beat them as hard as you can!
Damn it, I know you old bastards all too well.
Before Zhang Dafu became the sect leader of the Nine Heavens Profound Path, he spent his days wandering aimlessly around the Imperial Land.
Saying he was just wandering around isn't quite right, because he was constantly scheming, beating people up, and robbing them.
Every major superpower and every genius of his generation has suffered a setback at his hands.
Or do you think this unwanted title was something you only got after becoming the sect leader?
After becoming the sect leader of the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect, he has toned down his behavior somewhat, not because he feels he should cherish his reputation.
Instead, his father thought that since you're the sect leader, even if you want to do something sneaky or underhanded, you shouldn't do it yourself.
Even if shamelessness is the Zhang family tradition, we still have to consider things to some extent.
With so many disciples in the sect, can't you teach a few even more shameless ones?
That's right, Zhang Dafu's father, the previous sect leader of the Nine Heavens Profound Dao Sect, didn't die. Instead, he's enjoying his retirement in the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.
Just a few days ago, I sent Zhang Dafu some good news: your uncle was born three days ago, and your grandfather's sixth concubine has added another member to our family.
Oh, and there's some good news too, your little brother will be three years old next month.
It was born to your sixteenth concubine, son. Let's just enjoy this between us, but please don't tell Feng'er.
Your grandfather meant the same thing. Last time, Feng'er got so angry that she plucked all of your grandfather's beard, and it hasn't grown back yet.
My right leg is still sore. Please keep a close eye on Feng'er and make sure she doesn't come back to the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.
Last time, luckily I ran fast, otherwise Feng'er would have broken my legs.
Your grandfather and I have discussed this. If you still can't keep an eye on Feng'er, we'll let her reappear in the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.
Your father is preparing to bury his son, so you should think it over carefully.
The terrifying aspect of a super power is not its cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, or its vast number of disciples.
Rather, they are those ancient beings who have long since disappeared from the world's sight.
These old fogies seem destined to die at any moment, yet they persist indefinitely.
And the power possessed by these immortal old men was terrifying to the extreme.
Just as terrifying as their power is their cunning and scheming.
A single act of cunning can span thousands of years; that is true depth.
It is also the most terrifying thing.
That's why Zhang Dafu could travel freely and boldly within the imperial territory back then.
My name is Zhang Dafu, and I am the next successor to the sect leader of the Nine Heavens Mystic Dao Sect.
Do you dare to kill me?
No, nobody dares, and nobody dares to start this.
If you can kill someone else's heir, then someone else can kill your heir.
Once this loophole is opened, the true super geniuses of the Imperial Land will be wiped out.
With his incredibly powerful background and unique style of doing things, Zhang Dafu was once extremely popular in the capital, but he was also notorious.
