Heaven and Earth as the Chessboard, All Living Beings as the Pieces
After staring at Bai Ze silently for a long time, Heng'e was surprised to realize that he might know more than she had imagined.
When did you first guess who I was?
This was the part that Heng'e was most curious about.
She asked herself if she had been careful enough to not have given herself away at all.
Even among those Dao Proving One, Chi Men never doubted Heng'e's identity.
Otherwise, those twelve enormous moons wouldn't still hang peacefully high in the night sky.
"You were indeed very cautious and didn't reveal any flaws."
"However, the Heavenly Emperor and Empress's attitude towards you, as well as the actions of the other eleven princesses who suddenly went into seclusion before the three hundred years of turmoil began, all reveal your special nature."
A sudden realization flashed across Heng'e's eyes, and she finally understood what she had overlooked.
While few people know Dao Proving he has successfully attained enlightenment, it's not that no one knows at all.
First, there is the Father God, who has been repeatedly obstructed by himself across the long Long River of Time.
Chi naturally knew Heng'e's background, but for some reason he chose to acquiesce and even actively covered for her.
Secondly, there is Changxi, the moon goddess who was the first to demonstrate her Dao Proving.
Heng'e's eventual success in Dao Proving enlightenment through a relay system was largely due to the solid foundation laid by Changxi. After Heng'e's Dao Proving, Changxi, though still the Moon Goddess, had been largely inactive for a long time. Finally, and most importantly, Heng'e dedicated herself to freeing her eleven sisters from their destined deaths.
After all, they are neither Dao Proving One nor important figures with great influence.
Due to the deliberate interference and influence of the Heavenly Emperor, these eleven daughters of the Heavenly Emperor did not even leave behind their complete names for posterity.
Therefore, rewriting their fate of death is far simpler than rewriting the fate of the ten Golden Crow.
However, as a result, Heng'e's various actions, when observed by those with ulterior motives, naturally led to speculation and calculation.
This is especially true for a wise man like Bai Ze who possesses a powerful intelligence network.
The slightest unusual clues were enough for him to guess the truth.
It wasn't just a simple matter of guessing the truth; Bai Ze also saw through Wu Heng'e Wu Jun. In a sense, Bai Ze's final choice of Heng'e over the Great Golden Crow was also due to his understanding of Wu Jun's attitude.
At least in Wu Jun's mind, the Heavenly Emperor, Chi, as the father, actually preferred Heng'e as his successor. "I see. It seems my self-righteous 'caution' was nothing but a cover-up in the eyes of those with ulterior motives."
She chuckled softly, Heng'e quickly regained her initial calm expression.
"Then look at that ' Azure Dragon ' in the starry sky. Do you think Chi could become our ally?"
Pointing to the thirty lit stars in the east, Heng'e's question was tantamount to agreeing to Bai Ze's request for an alliance. From day to night, the Seven Mansions of the East remained brightly lit.
This also means that the battle between Divine Lord Meng Zhang of the East Sea, and the Ink Qilin is still ongoing, and it seems unlikely to end anytime soon. "Allies?"
Having already noticed those thirty unique stars, Bai Ze frowned slightly.
Bai Ze never hesitated to speculate about the Chis's behavior from the most malicious angle regarding those Dao Proving One could travel through time and space.
Whether they are friend or foe, we'll only know after we get to know them.
"Of course, if you have any information you can share with me, I might be able to make a judgment in advance."
With his gaze fixed intently on Heng'e, Bai Ze spoke with a certain certainty.
Bai Ze never believed in chance or coincidence.
The Heng'e would mention those thirty special stars at this time means she must know something or have some idea.
If Heng'e wanted to win over that Azure Dragon, Bai Ze, even if he had objections, would definitely sympathize with her and offer advice. This was Bai Ze's consistent approach as the Heavenly Emperor Emperor's strategist, and it was also the fundamental principle that had allowed him to survive among the powerful gods until now. "Chi is called Divine Lord Meng Zhang, the Lord of the Seven Mansions of the East, and one of the four pillars supporting the future world order."
At this point, Heng'e paused slightly.
"If I were to describe him in terms you can understand, in a few possible future timelines, he would be equivalent to my Father God."
"Most importantly, in the vast majority of timelines, Divine Lord Meng Zhang has an inseparable relationship with the Dao Ancestor."
Although it was the first time he had heard the title "Dao Ancestor," Bai Ze, with his wisdom, quickly understood many things he hadn't grasped before. "Dao Ancestor? That title does suit Chi's identity quite well."
The thought of that future being who would spread wisdom to all living beings made Bai Ze's gaze towards the Seven Mansions of the East change. "If that Divine Lord Meng Zhang is related to the Dao Ancestor, I personally suggest we don't try to win over Chi for now."
Seeing the puzzled Heng'e on Heng'e's face, Bai Ze explained in a deep voice.
"Too many eyes are focused on Chi, and Chi doesn't seem like the kind of person who can be won over."
"Someone of Chi's caliber must have come to this era with his own purpose."
"If we share the same goal, we don't need to win over Chi; we'll eventually become allies."
"If our goals are different, even if we try to win Chi over, we still have to guard against Chi betraying us in the end."
Heng'e's doubts gradually faded, but Bai Ze's explanations did not stop.
"My personal suggestion is that instead of trying to win over those enlightened ones who have already arrived in this era and each has their own ulterior Dao Proving One..."
"It would be better to find a way to recruit those Dao Proving One."
The former represents risk, while the latter represents reward.
Bai Ze believed that Heng'e could understand what he meant.
"With such great achievements in the future, you must have allies."
Even if our interests don't align for the time being, we can compromise a little and get the Chis on our side.
Heng'e glanced at Bai Ze with a strange expression, wondering where this guy got such confidence in himself.
However, after Bai Ze's reminder, Heng'e did indeed think of two suitable candidates.
If I could bring them all into this era, not only would I not have to expose myself beforehand, but I would also gain tremendous assistance.
[I just don't know if they'd be willing to get involved in this.]
If it Dao Proving One in her pond, Heng'e had no doubt whether they would accept her invitation.
However, Heng'e had absolutely no idea what to do with the two people she wanted to invite.
[Wangshu, Dayi, are you willing to help me?]
