Thinking about those two appetizers earlier, he didn't dare to touch them, nor did he try to kill them directly, but instead gave them to Yu Ziqing, which was indeed wise.
Those two appetizers certainly won't die anyti soon; if they don't die, they won't alarm the nest, allowing him to fish patiently.
...
On the other side, Yu Ziqing wasn't aware that the Mountain Lord had found new amusent. He wanted to visit the furthest eastern edge of the East Sea, but couldn't cross the deep sea directly and could only co through the land of the Four Divine Dynasties.
Returning to Dadui, Yu Ziqing first contacted Yang to ask for his opinion on whether or not to visit the Big Island.
Yang said it's unnecessary to worry; if so many deans cannot handle the waves of tsunamis, with the Cloud Whale also around, and the Southern Sea being the territory of Ji ng and his wife.
If all these can't withstand it, there's no point in going; it would be useless.
Yu Ziqing agreed that it made a lot of sense, so he didn't ddle in these affairs.
He set off from Dadui, choosing not to take the Abyss route but instead entered Daqian.
Daqian now has no Emperor.
Entering West Qian, he felt a starkly different atmosphere from Dadui, filled with chaos, anxiety, and violence.
The area closest to Dadui, previously sparsely populated, now surprisingly had fields being tilled, at least for the year, with quite a few residents living there.
The chaos hasn't spread here yet; pure because when chaos reaches here and inevitably spreads to Dadui's border, Dadui doesn't have chaos, and Dadui's people won't be soft-handed.
Jia Shisi personally sits at Jiachen City, so no one with reckless courage dares to cause trouble at East Dui anymore, and even those below naturally get the signal.
Needing Jia Shisi to sit in command ans they can't afford to be soft and can't retreat even a step.
Hence, the border area closest to Dadui, perhaps only twenty to thirty miles before entering Dadui's territory, ironically becos the most stable.
Continuing eastward, Yu Ziqing almost felt like he was entering the forr Kuihou Country.
Smoke and gloom, even able to sense Evil Qi, proved that Evil Dao had started to beco active and increasingly bold.
As he passed by, he saw so so-called rebel forces, a group of mortals, following several cultivators into the mountains and forests, purely because local cultivators ca back to protect the forr locals and give them sustenance, keeping them from becoming consumable materials for Evil Dao.
Occasional skeletal remains are visible by the roadside, while earthen graves in the forest have noticeably increased, with so even being dug open, coffins tossed aside.
Yu Ziqing sighed quietly; Daqian truly has fallen into chaos.
Increasingly frequent rebellions of all sizes; in truth, not a single major force has participated in the rebellions.
A few individuals, either traitors within major forces or exceedingly bold, are rely using pretense.
Major forces understand well that Daqian's chaos won't persist indefinitely; once the accounts settle later, the court's suppression of the revolt will require but a single coordinate.
Swallowing an entire major force is enough to feed many people at once, and the court can imdiately regain so blood.
Yu Ziqing spent a few days in West Qian, largely confirming that Song's and the Riddler's intelligence isn't far off, but so discrepancies exist compared to the chaotic situation in West Qian.
The chaos he imagined involved many forces, but in reality, West Qian's largest forces fled with their Grotto Heaven during the world collapse earlier.
Their main forces have yet to return, leaving behind only those who didn't want to flee, maintaining their basic territory.
Thinking of Dadui people's obsession, rembering seals at the end of Dingmao related to wars with Daqian.
The territory taken by Daqian; many from Dadui still yearn for it.
Zhang and the others never ntioned it, only due to practical considerations, advancing steadily.
Zhang and others also wish to reclaim their holand.
Now is actually the best opportunity.
Old Emperor Qian has died, the new Emperor Qian has died, no Emperor has taken the throne, causing utter chaos within the court.
Major forces in West Qian fled, abandoning their territory themselves.
Thinking it over, Yu Ziqing sent a ssage to Zhang, instructing them to prepare a plan based on the current situation to reclaim their holand.
West Qian is too close to Dadui, even the Evil Dao dares to openly appear, truly an eyesore.
Especially considering the Deep Sea Strange plotting to infiltrate the Four Divine Dynasties, Yu Ziqing finds the Evil Dao even more repugnant.
If Deep Sea Strange seeks to land, Evil Dao and Evil Cult would offer the most direct and simple path.
And the most chaotic Daqian now presents the most fitting entry point.
From a broader perspective, Daqian's chaos mustn't continue; pressure must be applied to prompt internal disputes to cease swiftly.
Losing so territory and falling in national fortune is better than allowing Daqian to dash towards collapse, continuously declining, and then becoming a bridgehead for Deep Sea Strange's rejoicing.
From Dadui's perspective, now is also the best opportunity.
After sending a ssage to Zhang, Yu Ziqing continued eastward, entering Daqian's heartland.
Arriving here, though far less chaotic than West Qian, Yu Ziqing saw different things.
