Chapter 1636 - 929: Special Bestowal from the Immortal Emperor, Ten Thousand Laws Divine Sword

Hearing these words, Ban Jincheng was already prepared, and quickly said, "Taoist Lord, I was just being used this time. It’s all the Full-time Immortal, Yun Taizhen, and several Upper Cultivators from the Innate Dao who want to attack you and obstruct the momentum of law reform. So they pushed me out as cannon fodder..."

On the other side, Si Shian nodded repeatedly and followed up, "Yes, yes, Lord Zhang, these people don’t love the sect, they don’t respect the Immortal Emperor, each one harbors malicious intentions. Next year, when you freeze the law chains, they will surely obstruct you more. I can help you."

Ban Jincheng quickly said, "I can also help you. I’m really familiar with the 16 layers, how those guys operate their law chains, how they secretly collude, how they profit. I know it all."

Si Shian said sincerely, "Taoist Lord, let us help you together. Law reform and obsoleting old laws is the trend. If I don’t freeze them, who will? To lend you a helping hand, it’s our duty, indeed."

Watching the two of them echoing each other, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Hmph, first they betray each other and desperately come to me. Seeing each other later, they immediately compete, causing inner turmoil. But after barely arguing, they secretly converse and ally again?"

Zhang Yu was not surprised at all by this. Ban Jincheng and Si Shian, such seasoned Refining Void cultivators, having struggled in the sect for years, can quickly adapt to different situation changes, a basic skill required for competent Sect Affairs Officers.

Zhang Yu was unhurried, merely saying calmly, "So tell me then how they plan to obstruct me?"

Ban Jincheng immediately said, "They want to retain the ’Dual Cultivation Duty’ and ’Breeding Duty’!"

Si Shian continued, "These two law chains simultaneously lift the Full-time Immortal and Taizhen Immortal Venerable, and are related to the doctrinal disputes of Wanfa and Heavenly Demon factions. Significant indeed..."

Zhang Yu frowned, looking at the list of law chains to be frozen next year, Dual Cultivation and Breeding Duty were prominently listed, and asked, "Since it is so significant, then why do you think the Immortal Emperor wants me to freeze them next year?"

Ban Jincheng explained, "Perhaps the Immortal Emperor wants to change hands, switching these two law chains to his control."

Si Shian on the other side had a similar answer, but no matter how Zhang Yu pressed further questions, they were unwilling to reveal more.

Clearly, without giving them more commitment, the two would not wholeheartedly assist Zhang Yu.

Nevertheless, Zhang Yu was in no rush, for even if there was a conflict with Full-time, Taizhen, Innate, and other factions, that would be in four months next year. He still had time to gather intelligence.

He calmly said, "Don’t even think about bribing me with money."

Only to see Zhang Yu bowing towards the sky and saying, "I, Zhang Yu, am loyal to the Immortal Emperor throughout my life. Even if you throw more money at me, don’t expect me to obstruct the great endeavor of the Immortal Emperor’s law reform."

"However..." Zhang Yu’s tone shifted, and he continued, "The order of freezing, the specific timing, the process, and the starting position of the 16 layers, these indeed need to be carefully studied."

"Since you two are both seasoned legislative Refining Void cultivators, if you’re willing to cooperate with me, I will consider your opinions. But all of this is unrelated to personal gain, it is entirely for the sect’s overall situation, for the Immortal Emperor’s interests."

Ban Jincheng and Si Shian nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

And shortly after they left, the conversation in the infirmary had already crossed the Spirit Realm and was presented to Dugu Ming in the Heaven Observation Hall.

Looking at Zhang Yu’s words, Dugu Ming sneered, "This kid is indeed quite aware of his situation."

With the ongoing fermentation of "Several Provisions of Law Chain Effectiveness," already rapidly shifting sect opinions overwhelmingly supported Zhang Yu.

In front of Zhang Yu, he no longer knew how many partnership requests had appeared.

"All are just people trying to profit from my tax exemption certificate."

Previously, when at a disadvantage, surrounded by countless attacking people, even presenting the tax exemption certificate didn’t really attract partners, even those considering cooperation were setting their conditions very low.

Yet now the situation has changed dramatically, suddenly many Sect Enterprises sought cooperation with Zhang Yu, hoping to use his tax exemption certificate to avoid taxes.

"But the conditions still aren’t good enough."

Looking at the contents of the emails in front of him, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "A monthly consulting fee of 1 million? Who do you think you’re looking down on? How can I repay my debts with this amount?"

"No need to rush, Zhang Yu, let’s wait a bit," Fu Ji said excitedly, "Your momentum is strong now, and the public opinion will only continue to ferment, growing stronger."

"Isn’t there still news in the Law Realm about forming an audit department for law chains? Your reputation is also high, if we were to become the head, why would we worry about cooperation then?"

Zhan Xian said, "Being the head of law chain audit... unlikely. Just Zhang Yu’s rank, cultivation, and assets aren’t enough, let alone other factors."

Fu Ji said, "Even if we can’t be the head, just having a position in there would be enough."

Zhang Yu sighed, looking at the debt statement, saying, "But the monthly debt interest, it weighs on me heavily."

Fu Ji unhesitatingly said, "First loan to pay debts, haven’t so many people invited you to take out a loan?"

"That’s right!" The Kao Sect Avatar said, "Inexhaustible strength, endless loans, continuous borrowing, is the true heroism. Sustaining debts is truly the great way of Wanfa’s good men."

"True Love Sect, is to strive in loans, fiercely speculate stocks, frantically trade currency, paying taxes on time. This is the righteous path of the Immortal Path, now you’re in countless gazes, but doing this, no one can fault your logic."
