Capítulo 2396: Chapter 201: Visit (Part 2)

At this moment, Yin Tianzhi felt a sense of frustration and regret in his heart.

In the past, under the instigation of the false Palace Master of the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, forces such as the Spirit Origin Prefecture and the Illusion Sky Realm gathered outside the Yin Ruins Arena to force the Taiyi Tributor to leave.

Despite doing everything he could, he could only watch as the other party was forced away.

If the Taiyi Tributor were still here, perhaps the Bai Qu Yin Family wouldn’t have to be so passive as Yin Penglai said.

However, he didn’t dwell in such meaningless emotions, and instead said solemnly:

“Have Yutang Prefecture and Longcong Prefecture shown any recent activity?”

The Second Ancestor slightly shook his head:

“They’ve contacted us, also saying they want to form an alliance, but I think most likely they want to stabilize us while taking the opportunity to absorb the remnants of the Ten Thousand Demon Palace… The Laowen Sect’s friction with them has become increasingly severe recently, so the Laowen Sect is probably worried about us collaborating with Yutang Prefecture and thus acted swiftly.”

Yutang Prefecture and the Golden Water Pond are forces suppressing the Ear Acupoint, Longcong Prefecture and the Ten Thousand Demon Palace suppress the Eye Acupoint, and the Laowen Sect suppresses the Xin Gate.

The five forces are close to each other, and it’s the most complex area in Zhang’s Ruins.

However, ever since the Master of the Ten Thousand Demon Palace was silently replaced by someone from the Supreme True Buddha and Jiu Futu, who was second only to the Master, was captured by True Man Taiyi, with the dragons headless, the four surrounding forces saw an opportunity. After returning from the Cloud Sky Realm, the four forces acted simultaneously to divide the Ten Thousand Demon Palace.

The Yin Family, Spirit Origin Prefecture, and Illusion Sky Realm, though aware, were unable to act in time, and wary of one another. By the time they were free to act, the Ten Thousand Demon Palace no longer existed, with its site occupied by the four forces simultaneously, each vying without giving an inch.

The location is also one of the entrances to the Chaos Origin Substance, securing it brings significant benefits to any force, so no one is willing to give it up.

After hesitating for a moment, the Second Ancestor spoke softly:

“Great Ancestor, the Laowen Sect has been entrenched in Zhang’s Ruins for many years. The founding Patriarch achieved Mahayana and ascended to The Heavens. Although it has declined now, the foundation remains. The Sect Master ‘Cheng Lianzi’ is also the person closest to the late-stage of Crossing Tribulation in Zhang’s Ruins, ready to advance at any time, looking around, perhaps only the Laowen Sect has the greatest hope of unifying Zhang’s Ruins…”

“And then?”

Yin Tianzhi’s face turned colder as he looked at the Second Ancestor and said coldly:

“If the Laowen Sect gains power, even unifies Zhang’s Ruins, will they leave a place for our Yin Family?”

“I know Cheng Lianzi better than you; he appears generous but is inwardly cautious, harsh, and unkind.”

“Many years ago, a group of Rogue Cultivators who came to Zhang’s Ruins relied on them, did countless dirty work for them, only to be refined into Human Pills by Cheng Lianzi!”

“If they truly take over Zhang’s Ruins, we of the Yin family fear we’d be worked to the bone, and he’d be unsatisfied if he hadn’t squeezed us dry!”

“This…”

The Second Ancestor was stunned, then bowed in shame:

“I was too careless.”

Yin Tianzhi snorted coldly but ultimately did not continue to rage.

His heart filled with a helpless and rare sense of confusion.

Although he was well aware of the Laowen Sect’s situation, what the Second Ancestor said wasn’t wrong. Even in his view, among the thirteen major forces in Zhang’s Ruins, the Laowen Sect indeed had the greatest chance of standing out.

This was exactly why he felt more conflicted.

Yin Penglai hesitated for a moment, then reminded:

“Great Ancestor, Second Ancestor, the envoys from the Laowen Sect and the Golden Water Pond are waiting outside, how should we respond to them?”

Yin Tianzhi fell silent for a moment, his mind racing, and finally nodded:

“Let the envoys come, I will write a letter to them…”

As he was speaking, a figure pushed open the ancestral hall door and rushed in, excitedly exclaiming:

“Great Ancestor, Elders! Good news! Great news!”

“Yin Fu?”

Yin Tianzhi frowned slightly but did not blame him for his rudeness.

Yin Penglai quickly asked:

“Yin Fu, what’s the good news that makes you so excited?”

The Chief Steward of the Yin family, Yin Fu, beamed and anxiously pointed outside:

“Tai, Taiyi Tributor!”

“The Taiyi Tributor is outside the Taoist Field, here to visit!”

Upon hearing this, the ancestral hall fell silent.

After a brief silence, Yin Tianzhi flashed and disappeared from where he stood.

“Great Ancestor, Great Ancestor, what about the envoys?”

Yin Penglai called out loudly.

The Second Ancestor shook his head slightly and said softly:

“What is there to do, just stall them for now.”

Then he too disappeared.

Seeing this, Yin Penglai couldn’t care about anything else, instructed Yin Fu, and hurriedly left the Taoist Field.

As soon as Yin Tianzhi exited the Taoist Field, he saw a familiar figure in a blue robe standing with their hands behind their back, seemingly lost in thought. Noticing the movement, they turned to look with a smile and raised their hand:

“Long time no see, Taoist Brother Yin, how have you been?”

“Hahaha! It truly is Taoist Friend Taiyi! I thought Yin Fu was fooling me!”

“I’m glad, glad, I have missed you dearly since you left!”

Yin Tianzhi, both surprised and delighted, flew towards him, then stepped back to carefully size him up, revealing a hint of shock in his eyes:

“I can’t even see through your current realm…”

Wang Ba laughed heartily:

“Just a minor technique of concealing aura! I see you, Taoist Brother, more radiant than before, it seems your Cultivation has progressed?”

Yin Tianzhi couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly:

“You jest, a minor breakthrough, not worth mentioning.”

With that, he perked up:

“I’ve been neglectful, your return isn’t easy, let’s talk inside the Taoist Field.”
