Ye You stood behind Gu Ping at some unknown moment, gently stroking Gu Ping's heaving back. At this point, Ye Youming's redness was evident, and in Gu Ping's eyes, those people meant something.
Half a year ago, Northern Town Pass had become a lonely fortress, cut off from the outside world. Wen Shixiong proposed to establish a temporary stronghold on the desolate mountains outside Northern Town Pass for mutual support.
Ye You shook his head. Regarding Jie Donglai's matters, even if Han Yu didn't speak up, he could guess what was going on.
Then the Nine Nether Sect sent a young man as bait to attack the mountain stronghold. Wen Ren and Hong Yulong, full of pride, went to defend the stronghold, only to suddenly discover that Northern Town Pass had been breached, trapping everyone inside the mountains.
Han Yu looked at Ye You in despair. She knew that in Ye You's eyes, this was an incredibly foolish decision.
What kind of people were surrounding the desolate mountains now?
They did not know that Bu Luo and Mu Qinglong were definitely there. He had reached the Late Stage of Nascent Soul, and Red Maiden had inquired about a Sword Cultivator.
Zhu Xian Mountain?
Gu Ping rubbed his forehead. Among that generation of young people, he least wanted to encounter two individuals: first was Ye You, and second was Zhu Xian Mountain. One was unfathomable, while the other was sharp and brilliant. The hidden sword techniques of Zhu Xian Mountain could easily overwhelm an ordinary Transcendent Practitioner, let alone their most commonly used leg techniques.
Did he know him?
He had encountered him before during a demonic incident. He was strong—no weaker than Hong Yulong or Mu Qinglong. In terms of offensive capability among the younger generation, almost no one could match him in leg techniques.
As Gu Ping and Han Yu focused their attention on Zhu Xian Mountain, Ye You frowned.
The Nine Nether Alliance had its own schemes in play; it was not the kind of group that would easily sacrifice bait or dare to gamble recklessly.
"I don't deny it." He spoke for Youluo and Hades, strategizing their plans. How could anyone else interfere?
He continued, "In that matter, only those with authority can make decisions. Without Ye Youluo, there would still be others. When discussing the Nine Nether Gate alone, aside from Tai Xu, Heavenly Gate would not deny its mistakes. After all, the foundation of the Nine Nether Gate is far deeper than that of ordinary sects, and almost every generation has a madman like Zhu Xian Mountain."
To Gu Ping and those Dust Realm cultivators, Zhu Xian Mountain's fratricidal actions seemed insane. However, if viewed from another perspective, the vast majority of people in the Ninth Underworld were not madmen.
Years of enduring the oppressive aura of the Ninth Underworld had led many to become indifferent to life and death. Ming Sheng, having experienced the lowest depths of the Ninth Underworld, was reluctant to speak of that painful past. Fortunately for her, fate had guided her and she had received protection from the Nine Nether Gate.
But for many others, they were willing to risk everything for a single bite.
The strength of the Nine Nether Alliance lay precisely in this.
It was a gamble—a battle where every life in the Ninth Underworld was at stake.
What about this generation?
Ye You shook his head. Gu Ping understood; just like the rise and fall of dynasties, the strength and weakness of the Cultivation World followed its own rules. If one were to say that during the Battle of Good and Evil, Zun Wei Guangming emerged as a beacon during a low point in the Cultivation World over millennia, then that battle—the Battle of the Three Realms—would usher in an unprecedented rise for the Cultivation World. It also marked Keke's first appearance, a genius rising like a comet.
There were too many geniuses vying for power, striving to stand out before chaos descended. From what it seemed now, time was on Gu Ping's side.
The Ninth Underworld could no longer wait; they were willing to abandon the territory of the Great Qin Ying Clan in order to breach Cheng Zong as soon as possible. Only then could the Ninth Underworld secretly transfer their troops, and if not, they would increase the pressure on Yuan Shi.
Some things Gu Ping did not understand; perhaps only the Celestial Realm could provide answers. However, it seemed that Yuan Shi was struggling to survive, no matter what.
Cheng Zong could not be saved, yet those people were seeking help. Perhaps the fall of Cheng Zong would not be a bad thing for the Dust Realm after all?
Ye You's words calmed Gu Ping down. He tried hard to sort out his thoughts but couldn't understand why Ye You had said that. Seeing Gu Ping furrow his brows tightly, Ye You slowly explained.
Cheng Zong served as a buffer between the Heavenly Gate and the Nine Nether Gate. As long as Cheng Zong existed, the Heavenly Gate would not recklessly engage with the Nine Nether Gate, which would prevent more common people from being drawn into the Endless War of the Distant Moon, depleting the strength of the Dust Realm. However, once Cheng Zong fell, there would be nothing to stop the Heavenly Gate and the Nine Nether Gate from clashing. The Great Jin would send troops, and the Treasure Pavilion would no longer hide in the shadows, placing their bets openly. After all, the Great Qin Ying Clan sought unity among the three realms, which was not a trivial matter.
What I mean to say is that Cheng Zong consumed their strength and depleted that of the Great Qin Ying Clan.
Gu Ping finally understood; no wonder the Jade Void Sect was so calm, and why other sects were not in a hurry. Those who watched coldly were likely waiting to see who would fight to the death at the forefront against the Ninth Underworld, only to later emerge under a grand banner to advocate for those who had fallen.
They sought to claim Tiandong and shape themselves as the righteous side.
Gu Ping leaned down and kissed Han Yu's forehead.
"Rest well; I will bring them all out."
