After the Jingling Mountain tragedy, the Xizhou Alliance attached great importance to it, and Zao Wou-Ki sent elite men and horses to investigate, at that time, there were many survivors in the Fang City, and through the confessions of the survivors in the Fang City guards, Zhao Wouji's men and horses found a lot of loose cultivators at that time, and then through the confessions of those scattered cultivators, they found out that many businesses were actually smugglers from the desert.

So the Xizhou Alliance sent a note to the Heavenly Dao Sect in the name of the alliance, asking the Heavenly Dao Sect to thoroughly investigate the matter and hand over the murderer of the Jingling Mountain tragedy.

Killing people and snatching treasures is a thing that undermines the stability of the region, this kind of thing is not allowed to exist in the mainstream immortal cultivation world, this is the same even on the side of the Heavenly Dao Sect, once there are frequent murders and treasure grabbing incidents in a city or Fang City, then it will inevitably make the cultivators decide that this area is not safe and reduce trade, not to mention that this matter is still looting the entire Fang City, so the Heavenly Dao Sect has to investigate.

However, the Heavenly Dao Sect casually checked, but found that this kind of thing had happened too many times over the centuries, not only the rest of the Great Desert was doing it, but even his disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect had also done countless such things.

If it is to be strictly investigated, then this will be a nest case, and the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect will also be involved, although Yu is suppressing the rest of the factions in the Heavenly Dao Sect, the basic face still has to be maintained, if he does too much, the rest of the factions will definitely not do it, and the Heavenly Dao Sect will immediately have a tendency to split.

And ** Yu also thinks that this is a temptation by Xizhou, once he softens, then Xizhou will turn over the rest of the cases and suppress his prestige.

Therefore, ** Yu quickly gave an extremely perfunctory investigation, claiming that those who killed people and robbed treasures were all loose cultivators, I don't know the origin, there are thousands of scattered cultivators, they can't find anyone, they want people, go find them themselves.

Such perfunctory words naturally made Zhao Wuji extremely angry, at this time, Xizhou did not have an Eighth Realm cultivator, and he was not able to resist the Heavenly Dao Sect at all, but Zhao Wuji didn't want to swallow this breath.

Because this kind of thing has happened too many times over the years, this makes Xizhou and the rest of the states seem to be a chaotic place, which is something that the Xizhou Alliance can never bear.

So the Xizhou Alliance gathered 500,000 horses again and rushed to the Jin Kingdom of Xizhou, blockading the borders and strictly investigating the desert monks and desert merchants.

Among them, the most pitiful are those desert merchants, they do business in Xizhou, do not enjoy the benefits of the rest of the region, high tariffs, high costs, low profits, and now they are strictly investigated again, and immediately many small businesses go bankrupt, and big businesses are hurting.

And the desert monks are not much better, they are often investigated by the Xizhou monks, those Xizhou monks are not polite, and conflicts often break out between the two sides, and under the conflict, it must be the desert monks who suffer.

In just a few months, the desert monks have left Xizhou and returned to the desert, they are now unable to survive in Xizhou at all, as for the smuggling operation, it was severely investigated and punished, and for a time the various forces in the desert mourned.

Although the desert territory is very large, the production of the desert is not much, and it is extremely dependent on the flow of resources to ensure their daily needs, so various forces have admonished the Heavenly Dao Sect and asked the Heavenly Dao Sect to deal with this matter.

**Yu immediately felt the crisis, the desert has been suppressed by Lin Xiao over the years, and the business in various places is extremely difficult, which makes the development of the desert very unsmooth, and the development speed is far weaker than the rest of the places.

At that time, the Heavenly Dao Sect family will have a great cause and can hold on, but those small forces may not be, once a large number of small forces are annihilated, there will be only one Heavenly Dao Sect family left, no matter how strong they are, as strong as Kunlun, don't they also need the support of a large number of forces?

The Heavenly Dao Sect immediately sent someone to contact Xizhou, expressing his willingness to re-investigate and severely punish the murderer, and his attitude began to soften, while the Heavenly Dao Sect was willing to soften, and Zao Wou-Ki did not want to completely turn his face.

At this time, there was no Eighth Realm monk in Xizhou, if they turned their faces directly, it would be unfavorable for Xizhou, and after discussing with the Moon Emperor and others, Zhao Wuji and the Moon Emperor and others decided to give the Heavenly Dao Sect a step down, and they still needed to forbear, until they had the ability to deal with the Heavenly Dao Sect before deciding to turn their faces.

After Xizhou gave face, ** Yu immediately ordered the secret guard to investigate, after hundreds of years of operation, the secret guard of the Heavenly Dao Sect has increased in strength, and it may not be anything externally, but it is extremely strict internally.

Soon, the secret guard found out about Zhang Laozu, this Zhang Laozu is a Daogang cultivator, not a master, but the problem is that Zhang Laozu is a clansman of a golden body monk of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and it is quite valued.

"Sect Master, this matter is actually not difficult to deal with, what Xizhou wants is an attitude, they don't want to turn their faces against us and start a war, then we will give him an attitude, this matter was done by ten small family monks, just take them out to take the blame"

**Yu felt a little headache, and convened his henchmen to discuss the matter, Zhong Linyu opened his mouth and suggested, pull out a few scapegoat top bags, is this kind of thing difficult?

"It's easy to take the blame, but I also have to take care of the overall situation, our desert cultivators are already weak, if we lose the hearts of the people, how can we rely on our Heavenly Dao Sect family alone?"

**Yu shook his head, the boss is not so easy to do, the Heavenly Dao Sect is the boss of the desert monks, if you don't stand up for the younger brother, but if you have something to let the younger brother go out to apologize, then it will inevitably make people feel cold, once these vassals are detached from the Heavenly Dao Sect, it will be bad.

"Sect Master, I don't think your worries are completely necessary, we are now on the right path, and it is our duty to maintain the rules of the righteous path, these ten monks have committed public anger by behaving like this, who let them do it, and they didn't do it cleanly, and it is natural to kill people to pay for their lives, we are more tough and simple, only punish the evil, and then compensate them from somewhere else, forgive them and don't dare to say anything"

"Elder Zhong is right, Sect Master, we have to be responsible for the entire desert, and now because of the actions of these small family cultivators, our entire desert has been restricted by Xizhou, and we have already suffered heavy losses, and the rest of the forces will inevitably accept this result."

Another person also said that the location of the desert is very embarrassing, the north is Beizhou, but Beizhou is poor and weak, otherwise they don't have to go to Dongzhou to develop, and the desert monks can't get any benefits from going to Beizhou to trade.

To the southeast is Kunlun, which is profitable, but Kunlun was suppressed by Lin Xiao even worse, the market has shrunk by most of the time, only to the south into Xizhou is the focus of their development, Xizhou has a vast territory, and the development is good, it is the key area of the desert monk trade, at least about thirty percent.

Now Xizhou has used the excuse of suppressing the desert to make the various forces in the desert suffer extremely huge losses, which has long made people unhappy and resentful.

"Okay, leave this matter to Zhong Linyu to do, at the latest half a month, I want you to give me a perfect answer"

"Sect Master, please rest assured, it won't take half a month"

Zhong Linyu replied, there are only ten small families, and there are not 10,000 people in total, and they don't even have a spiritual light period, how can they be his opponents.

········

"Master, what did the sect master say over there?"

Back at his residence, Lian Xin greeted him, Lian Xin is now also a high-level of the Heavenly Dao Sect, but his status is obviously not comparable to Zhong Linyu and these old men.

"Almost all of them are going according to our plan, and the sect master has decided to sacrifice these ten small families in exchange for Xizhou's forgiveness"

"That's good, let the desert accumulate more grievances, and when the time comes, when we launch it, the Heavenly Dao Sect will have no relatives."

Lian Xin was suddenly overjoyed, this result was also what they had predicted, and in the current situation, it was impossible for the two sides to fight, so their current strategy was to divide the desert and let the Heavenly Dao Sect deviate from morality.

"This matter is entrusted to me by the sect master, and the specific details are up to you to execute, no problem."

"No problem, but what to do with the Zhang family's side"

"It's time to deal with it, but you have to get the evidence, you also know the order from Boss Ye's side, it may take a few years to do it, and our hard days are almost over."

Zhong Linyu replied, Ye Nanyu had already sent him a message, as long as Yu Tianxiang broke through the Cave Xuan Period, he could make a move against the Heavenly Dao Sect, and when the time came, the four Dong Xuan Period would beat ** Yu together, and the odds of victory would not be small.

"Master, why didn't Boss Ye ask the head to do it, if the head of the house made a move, why would we be so troublesome, just push it horizontally"

"The head of the sect is planning big things, all the high-level elixirs of the immortal cultivation world have gathered on the side of the Shenmu Sect over the years, and what the head of the sect wants to do is not something we can guess.

And on the sect's side, the head of the sect is also choosing an heir, we have to push Boss Ye up, and we can't let Bai Zichen occupy this position."

"Bai Zichen, Master, why did he rob Boss Ye, in terms of merit and ability, where can he compare to Boss Ye?"

Lian Xin was stunned, and his tone was quite complaining, in the eyes of these people in the night owls, their boss Ye Nanyu was wise and martial, resourceful, and had excellent operational ability, why should Bai Zichen be the heir of the head.

"Shut up, just say this kind of thing in front of me, if you go back to the sect, you must not say it"

"I see"

"I see that you didn't listen to it, Nan Xuan is in charge of the sect over there, and what he hates the most is the mountainism in the sect, if he knows that the wind on the mountain of the sect is rising, I'm afraid it will be a moth again, the Bai family has been suppressed very badly over the years, if it weren't for Bai Zichen's struggle, the Bai family would have been demolished by Nan Xuan"

"Master, what's going on with this Nanshou Tower, why can't he get along with his family disciples?"

Lian Xin couldn't figure it out, Bai Zichen and the others had also made great achievements for the sect, why did Nan Xuan keep getting along with them, and always suppressed the family disciples.

"What do you know, it's the same with me in power, forget it, let's not talk about this matter, you go and rest"

Zhong Linyu shook his head, this matter is related to the balance of the power of the sect, if it weren't for the master's instructions, how could Nan Xuan have the courage, they can't control it now, and it's not in the sect.
