Zhou Yu lost his composure at that moment, and a bit of his aura leaked out, which immediately attracted the attention of the immortal masters in the convoy.
"who?"
The two monks in the Yuling Realm shouted loudly and rushed into the depths of the dense forest with their swords.
"I'll do it!"
Zhou Yu shouted in a low voice to stop Lu Qing, Yang Wu and others. He held the sword in front of him, jumped out, and slashed with the sword light, knocking the two Yuling Realm monks back.
The convoy suddenly fell into chaos, and hundreds of Sky Controlling cultivators were shocked and angry, and surrounded Zhou Yu.
However, facing Zhou Yu, who could have chopped two Yuling Realm monks away with just one sword, he felt a little afraid and did not dare to step forward.
"Why are you so grateful for saving my life after not seeing you for so long?"
Zhou Yu ignored the monks around him, looked at the luxurious four-horse carriage, and laughed softly.
"It's you?!"
A surprised voice came from the carriage, and the curtain was immediately drawn open. A man jumped out, shouting at others to stop.
"Put them all away! This is not an enemy! He is my savior!"
"You two, this is the one who saved me after the last Luoshui City mission."
After Zhang Yuze's explanation, the tense atmosphere finally eased.
While smiling, Zhou Yu asked Lu Qing and others to push the cage cart out of the dense forest.
Seeing this scene, even Zhang Yuze was slightly stunned.
Afterwards, Zhou Yu had a brief discussion with Zhang Yuze, and then let Zhou Yu and others join the convoy. After resolving all the follow-up matters of killing the Yue cavalry, they hurried to Luoshui City together.
The caravan moved forward slowly, walking along the edge of the official road.
Facing the sunlight that was spreading all over the ground, clusters of tree shadows moved backwards like a revolving lantern. The entire caravan was silent except for the snorting of horses, the sound of horse hooves and the creaking of carriages.
In one of the luxurious carriages with four horses drawn side by side, Zhou Yu and others as well as Zhang Yuze from Yuyang Country sat together.
As for the two Yuling Realm monks under Zhang Yuze, they were on other carriages.
The Yuyang Kingdom has been destroyed for many years, and the various industries run by the Restoration Organization over the years have also achieved little success.
Although on the surface it was a business alliance of several wealthy people and looked prosperous, in fact it was secretly cultivating many forces for the restoration of the nation and was almost penniless.
One of the reasons why they attacked Luoshui City in broad daylight and stole a large number of crystals last time was because of this.
Although these four-horse carriages are luxurious, they are actually only good-looking but not practical. They are bumpy even when traveling on the official road.
Fortunately, everyone is a monk and can tolerate this.
"I am Zhang Yuze, the descendant of the Yuyang Nation. Thank you again for your help!"
Zhang Yuze found a set of silver drinking utensils from somewhere, poured the fine wine that he had brewed for ten years, and raised his glass with a happy face to thank everyone.
"You're welcome. It's just a piece of cake."
Among all the people present, only Zhou Yu had had some interactions with him, so he raised the wine glass in his hand and responded.
The others also raised their glasses slightly to signal, but no one drank.
It has become a norm not to eat other people's food or drink other people's alcohol when traveling outside.
Zhang Yuze didn't care and drank the wine in one gulp while smiling.
"What is going on?" Zhou Yu did not drink, but put down the silver wine glass in his hand and asked softly.
Even though he saved Zhang Yuze's life, he still had to be on guard against others.
"What else could it be?"
Zhang Yuze grinned, and added another glass of wine, drank it all, and then said with a smile: "Of course, we are ready to restore the country!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly changed.
Even though he knew that everyone had already used their spiritual energy to isolate the inside and outside of the carriage to prevent being eavesdropped, Zhou Yu was still stunned when he heard this.
"Restore the country?" Zhou Yu glanced at Zhang Yuze and said with a strange look, "Yue is powerful. After all, it is one of the nine major countries in the Northern Territory. It may not be easy for Yuyang to restore the country with such a big fanfare."
Speak tactfully and not too bluntly.
But everyone present could hear that Zhou Yu had some doubts about what Zhang Yuze said.
After all, Yue State is one of the nine major countries in the Northern Territory. It has cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Realm in charge, and its national strength is strong. There are also a large number of Spirit Control Realm cultivators. The Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators serve the royal family, and the army under its command is as huge as millions!
Yuyang Kingdom, a small country that has been destroyed for a long time, can only survive in secret. How can it have the energy to counterattack
"You really don't know?"
This time it was Zhang Yuze's turn to look confused. He glanced at everyone's expressions and slowly put down the silver wine glass in his hand.
"What exactly happened?" Zhou Yu asked again.
The others also looked at Zhang Yuze with interest, wanting to know what had happened.
Zhang Yuze put away the smile on his face and explained solemnly.
"Ever since the news broke about the Qingfeng Mountain Secret Realm, the Yue Kingdom and various forces sending out Divine Transformation Realm cultivators, the Yue Kingdom has been in trouble."
"Many forces are exerting pressure on the Yue Kingdom's royal family and various forces. The Yue Kingdom is on the verge of collapse!"
“It’s on the verge of collapse…”
Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhou Yu calmly. This matter was just something Zhou Yu shouted out.
Otherwise, even if the news leaked, it wouldn't have happened so quickly.
"Even if Yue State and the various forces violate the Northern Territory Convention, it will not cause the situation to collapse. At most, they will cede their interests and suffer a little pain, but it will not shake the foundation of Yue State and the various forces."
Zhou Yu didn't look at everyone's gaze and spoke seriously.
The Northern Territory Convention is an unwritten rule that constrains cultivators in the Divine Transformation Realm.
But there are many ways to avoid it, such as Long Zhen's treatment is one way, or ceding land and paying compensation is also a way to deal with it.
No matter what method is used, although the Yue State and various forces will suffer some damage, their foundation will never be shaken.
It is very difficult for Yuyang Kingdom to restore its independence.
"That may not be the case! This time is different from the past. This time the chaos will be difficult to calm down."
Zhang Yuze shook his head confidently and spoke again: "According to intelligence, wars have broken out in various parts of the Northern Territory, and many forces and countries have been involved in the war."
"Yue's enemies, Jiang and Man, are taking advantage of this opportunity to take a bite out of Yue."
"If I can help disrupt Yue from within, both countries will be more than happy to have me. Then we can achieve great things!"
Listening to Zhang Yuze speaking, Zhou Yu keenly grasped a point.
There are forces all over the Northern Territory, the country is caught in war and the situation is chaotic.
With the Yuyang Kingdom's caravan as cover, Zhou Yu and his companions naturally had no obstacles along the way.
All the cages containing the red fire foxes were placed in a convoy, and there were also more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages and dozens of cavalrymen to cover them. They were treated as pets for sale and did not attract anyone's attention.
