Master of Strange Dao

Moreover, many have already achieved complete freedom, so you need not worry.

Just wait here, and arrangements will be made for you, with all expenses covered by Daqian."

The visitor, paying no heed, transformed into a tunneling light, preparing to breach the checkpoint.

Song Chengyue cast a faint glance at the other party.

"Unappreciative, seeking your own doom.

Assaulting the border checkpoint, assaulting the Jinyi Wei's examination.

Men, disable his Qi Sea, lock his scapula, capture him alive."

When mutations occurred in the Wilderness, the Jinyi Wei would naturally be the first to know, and even if the spies were unaware, Song Chengyue had already been informed in advance.

On the night of August 16 at 1:45 AM, there might be a mutation in the southern Wilderness.

Song Chengyue had a rightful reason to mobilize a large number of troops, even kindly informing the Langya Institute.

He was there to perform thorough examinations.

In the Wilderness's southern region, the Sealed Land of Dadui's Jade Seal opened. As long as the Jade Seal was found, it symbolized Dadui's return and the firm first step.

This was significant, and since the dong chang was abolished, the chief director harbored resentment, even going so far as to provoke conflict between the Shadow Department and the Jinyi Wei, causing the dong chang's spies to turn against the Jinyi Wei.

It was too easy for Song Chengyue to obtain evidence, and it was guaranteed not to be false.

Thus, publicly, the chief director's targeting of the Jinyi Wei changed the nature of matters.

Song Chengyue even dared to openly accuse the chief director of rebellion, with the dong chang already becoming the chief director's rather than Emperor Qian's.

Fortunately, it was abolished in advance; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Song Chengyue spoke somewhat unreasonably, but his stance was impeccably correct.

Emperor Qian could abolish the dong chang, but the chief director still could not target Daqian.

Thunder and rain were both blessings from the emperor, and the chief director had to accept them quietly, not make this seemingly rebellious move.

Therefore, at the first signs of a mutation in the southern Wilderness, Song Chengyue sought a nocturnal audience with Emperor Qian to request troop mobilization.

Even if Daqian didn't actively send help for the southern Wilderness, they could not allow anyone to cause disruption.

This overtly sought stability while secretly preventing the chief director's actions, a proposal Emperor Qian approved.

Presently, Song Chengyue had captured seven or eight incarnations, all below the Ninth Tier.

He immediately requested Kun You relay the message.

The chief director's incarnations appeared in large numbers, all converging on the southern Wilderness. They forced their way through checkpoints, preferring to self-destruct rather than be captured alive, injuring several people.

Only descriptions existed, without conclusions.

Subsequently, news came from the Capital City of Daqian.

From that day, the chief director was officially labeled an Evil Dao Demon.

Song Chengyue received the transmission, grinning, adjusting the wording to suit the situation.

"Order, whenever encountering a victim of the Langya Incarnation Evil Technique, capture them alive. For those who resist, kill without mercy."

Song Chengyue understood Emperor Qian all too well.

He knew that as long as the chief director didn't return voluntarily for an audience or explanation, Song Chengyue didn't need to fabricate anything; Emperor Qian wouldn't trust him again.

Emperor Qian wouldn't gamble on the chief director's loyalty or that he wasn't seeking revenge.

Even though they knew there was a 99% chance the chief director wasn't causing trouble, ultimately, people couldn't trust completely.

A dog with a completely unruly heart, unwilling even to pretend loyalty, must die.

Song Chengyue blocked the Daqian border, looking towards the southern Wilderness, silently thinking.

All he could do was this much; regrettably, he couldn't go or act personally.

He hoped the Langya Institute would send a couple more strong individuals.

Currently, besides Song Chengyue, those in Daqian who most wanted the chief director dead were undoubtedly some people in the Langya Institute.

As long as the chief director existed, the name of the Langya Incarnation Technique or Langya Incarnation Evil Technique would grow stronger by the day.

Consequently, the Langya Institute's name would accumulate more and more blemishes.

If too much time passed and it became ingrained in people's hearts, those stains would become impossible to wash away.

...

At the Dazhen border, King Xiang's banner shone in the darkness.

A wisp of lightning moved within the clouds, the mark of the Lei Clan.

A Ninth Tier Strong was blocked at the border.

King Xiang sat at the prow of a boat, smiling.

"Kind Dao Brother, have a seat and drink some tea; whatever the matter, discuss it tomorrow.

Today, not a single Ninth Tier is allowed to leave all of Dazhen."

"Your Highness King Xiang, are you attempting to usurp the throne again?"

King Xiang extended his hand, tossing a token which grew in the wind, transforming into a giant gold token thousands of feet tall, landing with a booming sound.

"Emperor Zhen's Stop Token is here; try crossing it at your own risk. I guarantee I won't stop you."

Seeing the person dare not make reckless moves, King Xiang smiled.

"I don't care if you're being threatened by that demon; after today, I can personally request someone to help you undo the Evil Skill."

...

Within Dali's borders, Fu Xiao stood high in the sky, smiling at two Ninth Tier Strong.

"Respected Seniors, please stop here."

After long contemplation, upon learning of the movements of Daqian's Jinyi Wei, he made a decision.

He didn't want to, but Dali's situation was as such, and he had no choice but to comply, inconveniencing the chief director.

Today, whoever wanted to go to the southern Wilderness must accept inspection.

Even if, after inspection, they weren't incarnations, as long as they were above the Sixth Tier, nobody was permitted to proceed.

He might not stop many; if a Ninth Tier really wanted to pass, he couldn't stop them, nor could he necessarily detect them, but actions had to be made overtly.
