"I need one person, someone with enough weight, to stir up this stagnant water from within, to unify those fearful forces, and ultimately guide them to gather together for what is called a final battle with me."
"And this person, Yun Tianji, is most suitable. He hates you to the core. By offering your head, it serves as a pledge, greatly gaining his trust, making him believe that I share his goals, thus willingly being used by me to bring about that battle I need."
Before Sun-Eroding Cry could recover his senses, Chu Zheng spoke again, his tone slightly softened:
"Of course, Martial Ancestor, you need not worry about your life. With Yun Tianji's current means and cultivation, he is simply unable to truly annihilate you, at most he can use the foundation of the Immortal Court to suppress and seal you. Afterwards, when the situation stabilizes, I will find an opportunity to release you, allowing you to return to the Martial Path."
