660 The Response of the Divine Wind Palace (2/2)

But even though it was clear, it could not be revealed!

Because they had no proof, they were only speculating, and the speculation was made by the Master of Celestial Mystery, so it was ill-advised to make it public.

Ordinarily, they would not care whether they had proof or not, they could just come straight out with it. But it was no longer like the old days. Even though Divine Wind Palace was a powerful sect of the Four Eastern Regions and they had many strategies they could employ, when compared to yesteryears, their power was declining, and they did not have the absolute superiority they had before. What was more, if it truly was Immortal Palace who had done all this, then they was really more powerful than they had previously imagined.

Under these circumstances, having an all out war with Immortal Palace would not be good for Divine Wind Palace. If anything else, it would merely spur Immortal Palace to action. The fact of the matter was, that once the Supreme Fairy Weapon was used, what could Divine Wind Palace do?

Therefore, Divine Wind Palace had to hold themselves back; they could not go all out to attack.

Since you stabbed me in the back, so I'll stab you back too.

Zhou Bao was raised by you. Although initially, it was to attract our attention, he has since grown and not only holds a high position at your Immortal Palace, but he has strong combat capabilities and is your ace card. And it is a most powerful card. If I were to destroy this card of yours, I think you would regret it for quite a while, right?

But this Zhou Bao was not easy to understand, and he was carrying at least one fairy weapon, as well as several Pure Yang Celestial Devices. God knows how many more secrets he had. Killing him would not only cause serious trouble to Immortal Wind Palace, but would also mean one less general for them, which would be a good advantage for Divine Wind Palace.

But now that Zhou Bao has already come of age, it would not be that easy to get rid of him.

Therefore, Divine Wind Palace started plotting in secret, and asked the Master of Celestial Mystery to make a carefully thought-out calculation. They concluded that waiting for Zhou Bao to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation would be the best time to overcome him.

Because of Zhou Bao's current situation, crossing the Void Thunder Tribulation would surely be difficult. Even if he had the fairy weapon for protection, he would inevitably have a period of weakness, and this would be the best moment to strike.

But the hollow was so vast, how would they know where this guy was actually going to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation?

This was another problem.

But it was not difficult for Divine Wind Palace to deal with Zhou Bao. They had already investigated Zhou Bao so thoroughly that they found out about Wang She.

Wang She was one of the 28 constellations of Immortal Palace and was closely linked to Zhou Bao. Before Zhou Bao came of age, Wang She helped him a lot. And after Zhou Bao rose to power, he in turn helped Wang She a lot. He helped Wang She in the hollow to rise to the Individual Immortal Karma Rank. So when it came to crossing the Void Thunder Tribulation, of course Zhou Bao would help him. At the very least, the two of them could cross together. The two men were in the same phase. So, wherever Wang She was crossing the tribulation, it was very likely Zhou Bao was going to be there.

That was why there were a lot of men on the ship today.

The Master of Celestial Mystery had figured out where Wang She was going to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation and that was at the Desolate Ancient Star Area.

Once he had figured out the location and had gained enough strength, he would at least be able to force the eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven into submission, even someone with the power of a Human Immortal!

Why is this so? Because ten years ago Zhou Bao had already overpowered Hai Tonghe, an eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven. Although he could not reach a very high phase because he had not crossed the Thunder Tribulation, at the speed he was growing, his combat capability could reach terrifying levels. What was more serious was that he was carrying a fairy weapon.

After crossing the Void Thunder Tribulation he would have a period of weakness, but how weak would he actually be then? It was ill-advised to be complacent.

Therefore, Divine Wind Palace started a policy of alliances with surrounding states, but this policy was not effective in the Four Eastern Regions. But supposing Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple, which had the worst relationship with Zhou Bao, didn't want to get involved, there would be no choice for Divine Wind Palace but to resort to teaming up with the Three Western Regions.

The relationship between the Four Eastern Regions and Three Western Regions was not great, in fact, they were having a feud. But this did not mean they could not find allies there. The Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty and the Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain all had an interest in Zhou Bao. It was due to this great interest that Divine Wind Palace managed to draw Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty and Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain into the situation. Then they could begin the operation.
