This thing is much more important than leaving Zhong Shouzheng here.
And he could see that Zhong Shouzheng didn't seem like a righteous person, greedy, cautious, and he could sell out a dead man so smoothly for his own benefit.
He needed soone like that.
"Do you have any more intel?"
Zhong Shouzheng seed to slowly calm down, with a trace of struggle in his eyes, and remained silent for quite a while, saying nothing.
Seeing that Zhong Shouzheng seed about to leave, the Cliff Divine King beca sowhat anxious instead, realizing that there must be sothing more important.
"Intel, traded for Zhan Dao as a transaction."
Zhong Shouzheng looked conflicted, truly at a loss.
Because Yu Ziqing said that getting things back from this individual's hands would be extrely difficult.
The most feasible thod, first cut off his intel channel, then betray Yu Ziqing.
Given the grievances between Yu Ziqing and the Cliff Divine King, the feasibility would be significantly higher.
But when fishing, you have to let the fish run a bit, can't be too hasty, or else it might break away.
Zhong Shouzheng sighed with so regret, said nothing, patted Kun You, and turned to leave.
The Cliff Divine King watched Zhong Shouzheng leave, suppressing any reaction, seeing clearly the greed and delight in Zhong Shouzheng's eyes, having seen this look many tis before.
Be patient and wait.
Zhong Shouzheng closed his eyes, reflecting on this acquisition.
Yu Ziqing was right, it's quite dangerous, but for him, it's still within the acceptable range, and there might even be a significant advantage.
This advantage is indeed quite substantial, getting this Divine King for free is just thrilling, like a sudden insight.
Zhong Shouzheng returned to the starting point, back to the present world, found a high-end brothel in Kuihou Country to rest, and after two months of nurturing his spirit, set off again.
This ti, he ca to the Void, and after calling the Cliff Divine King, he said with a somber face.
"I have more important intel."
"Speak first, I'll evaluate it by its worth in Zhan Dao."
"My previous associate was actually killed by Jinlan Mountain.
And I was actually sent by Jinlan Mountain, to retrieve the Faceless Man's face and their past, to control them.
I was previously just a loose cultivator, gravely injured and near death, greatly indebted to Jinlan Mountain.
Now working for them, just like the last ti I ca here."
Zhong Shouzheng, with a dark face, said these words, implying that this ti he's not here to work for them.
Just didn't state it clearly, letting the Cliff Divine King interpret as he sees fit.
The Cliff Divine King had an epiphany, overlooking Zhong Shouzheng, also understanding.
What Jinlan Mountain likely desires isn't the faces or the past of those Faceless n, for they're not of value.
The only thing of value might just be the new Emperor Qian of Daqian.
And clearly, Zhong Shouzheng wasn't aware of this crucial secret.
Jinlan Mountain's ambition is truly grand, wanting to control the new Emperor Qian of Daqian.
asured by others' motives, this makes perfect sense.
The Cliff Divine King generously opened the Dao for Zhong Shouzheng to comprehend.
Overlooking Zhong Shouzheng, the thoughts Zhong Shouzheng left behind slowly faded away.
Having another alias might not necessarily have much effect.
His intel channel can be considered severed.
Qingping is dead.
The White Water Egg is almost useless, loyalty doesn't matter.
He now needs a new, reliable intel channel.
What could be more fitting than Zhong Shouzheng?
He is still soone sent by Jinlan Mountain, allowing him to plant a piece there.
The intel Jinlan Mountain knows, he can also obtain.
And the only cost is providing the Dao enlightennt.
He is so familiar with the look in Zhong Shouzheng's eyes, having seen too many similar looks, this greedy fellow, especially since he is a loose cultivator, daring to do anything to seek the Dao.
Especially after the Dao enlightennt ended, this sense of disparity appears, leaving him with no choice.
For two months of struggle before coming, the Cliff Divine King felt it took a bit long.
He kept pondering, those Faceless n didn't matter, pondering instead whether giving the new Emperor Qian's past was worth it or not.
What was valuable to him were actually those forr aliases.
Unfortunately, every alias was destroyed, the remaining faces and pasts of others were really not important, nor did he care much.
To make Zhong Shouzheng work for him, others must not know that Zhong Shouzheng has beco a traitor and betrayed Jinlan Mountain.
Furthermore, Zhong Shouzheng must not return empty-handed.
The faces and past of the Faceless n, if given, then so be it.
Finally, ti for the Dao enlightennt session concluded.
He was very pleased with the expression on Zhong Shouzheng's face, that sense of disparity, that greed, even a touch of resentnt mixed with fear, was just perfect.
"Did you know, the new Emperor Qian is also a Faceless Man?"
Zhong Shouzheng was taken aback, his eyes shook, he indeed didn't know this.
However, following this, he realized that when Yu Ziqing was giving him instructions, he emphasized the word "all" several tis, fearing he wouldn't grasp the key point.
Now he finally understood why, and also why Yu Ziqing left so words unsaid previously, but deliberately omitted the words "new Emperor Qian."
It couldn't be explicitly stated; the intention was for his natural reaction upon hearing this information.
The Cliff Divine King was very pleased.
"I can give you the Faceless Man's face and past, for you to take back.
Moreover, I can also open the Dao for you, to comprehend the truth.
But I need you to provide information."
