Zha had waited a long time without seeing any movement from the Yellow Springs Realm, his heart filled with confusion.
The Yellow Springs Realm was Yun Zuoyu's lifeline. He had prepared it for years, and it could not be lost. With the Central Palace Yellow Emperor forcing his way in to seize it, compromise was impossible. They should have fought a great battle. Why had there been no movement for so long?
Had two useless wretches whose Dao hearts had been shattered by the Master of Ten Thousand Daos found solace in each other and lost themselves to passion?
Zha could never have imagined that Yun Zuoyu was no longer Little Yun.
Back then, when Yun Zuoyu had been Invincible for a Lifetime, he too had been a powerhouse who wore his pride on his face. After arrogantly declaring himself extraordinary and suffering a crushing defeat, he had never recovered. Lacking ambition and knowing only how to hide in the Yellow Springs Realm to protect himself, he had not been taken seriously by the other Invincible for a Lifetime. The strategies against him were either contemptuous, or...
There were no strategies at all—only tactics.
Lu Bei, Qi Lijing, the Central Palace Yellow Emperor, Zha, and Ji Longcheng had all thought the same way.
For an Invincible for a Lifetime to have fallen so low showed just how useless Yun Zuoyu was.
As the saying went, three days apart demanded a new appraisal. No matter how useless Yun Zuoyu had seemed, he had risen through sheer ability. He had once been an Invincible for a Lifetime who made Heaven's Will retreat three paces. Anyone who continued to view him through old eyes was bound to stumble badly.
The change was not hard to understand. The times had changed.
Things were different
