My Master Knows It All

In the crowd, Du Xingchen sneered upon hearing the words, "Yang Yudong, do you really believe his words so easily, unable to discern such a crude and obvious method of framing?"

"Framing?" Cao Zhen was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "Why would I frame anyone? I have no need to frame anyone, because between East Breeze and your Eastern Border, there lies our Eastern Wasteland."

As he spoke, he glanced around, his mind settling slightly. It was clear that the leader of this group was the woman in front of him, and moreover, these people did not seem very aggressive.

It appeared that they were not like East Breeze, seeking to attack the Eastern Wasteland to seize resources.

He was not afraid of them attacking the Eastern Wasteland. Apart from himself, there were two reincarnated individuals with great abilities in the Eastern Wasteland, and his disciples, each of them exceptionally strong, especially Xiang Zi Yu, who was almost at his level.

However, it would certainly be better if no large-scale battles occurred.

For the past fifty years, he had lived the life of a mortal, fully aware of the struggles of human life.

If a great war were to occur in the world of immortal cultivation, countless cultivators would die, but even more mortals would perish. After all, most, if not all, cultivators do not consider the mortals during battle.

Mortals, even if only slightly impacted, would die.

Even if the mortals are not directly affected, when cultivators battle, even if they do not directly impact the mortals, what about the crops? Destroyed farmland and a lack of food would lead to a series of problems, resulting in chaos and the inevitable appearance of bandits, plunging the human world into further turmoil.

Thus, a peaceful world was preferable.

Du Xingchen seemed to want to say more, but Song Nianzhu preemptively asked, "You mentioned East Breeze attacked your Eastern Wasteland? What was their purpose?"

Cao Zhen did not hide anything, directly saying, "They wanted to seize our resources, but they got nothing. Instead, they lost more than two hundred at the Golden Core Stage, each carrying a Qiankun Bag, effectively sending resources to us instead."

"Oh? It seems then that the strength of your Eastern Wasteland is not weak," stated someone in the crowd, looking at Cao Zhen, "May I know the current situation in the Eastern Wasteland? Can you share with us?"

"How should I describe our Eastern Wasteland?" Cao Zhen replied, looking back at the questioner, "Do you, from East Breeze, have any kind of alliance, like an Alliance Hierarch or something? As far as I know, East Breeze has an Alliance Hierarch, with all their major immortal sects united. But it's not just about others querying me, I also need to learn about the situation in the Eastern Border."

"The entire East Breeze united?" The other person was taken aback, then shook his head, "Our Eastern Border has not united, but the various major Immortal Sects in our Eastern Border do coordinate with each other. And here in our Eastern Border, we have ten major Immortal Sects."

"This place is home to one of the ten major Immortal Sects of our Eastern Border, the Qingfeng Sect. The major decisions in our Eastern Border are decided through consultation among the ten major Immortal Sects. How is your Eastern Wasteland managed?"

Cao Zhen nodded slightly, interpreting the Eastern Border as having a loose parliamentary system.

"Our Eastern Wasteland isn't allied either, and similarly, we don't have the concept of ten major Immortal Sects. Of course, the major Immortal Sects in our Eastern Wasteland are also interconnected. Moreover, we have the largest dynasty.

The decisions in our Eastern Wasteland are mostly made by the largest dynasty, and the major Immortal Sects usually adhere to these decisions."

He wasn't deceiving these people. Although the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty had ten major Immortal Sects, the Eastern Wasteland did not.

And surely, the affairs of the Eastern Wasteland were indeed dictated by the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, since he served as the State Preceptor, and his orders were generally obeyed by the other Immortal Sects.

For instance, he had ordered the various Immortal Sects to aid mortals, which they diligently complied.

"The dynasty decides?" Du Xingchen scoffed, "Your Eastern Wasteland cultivating community obeys a dynasty's orders, suggesting that your cultivating community is perhaps not all that remarkable.

Moreover, you mentioned that East Breeze, though allied, sent people to attack your Eastern Wasteland and were effectively sto...
