CHAPTER 1107: CHAPTER 313: ORDER HE WEIDAO TO DIE!

He Weidao considers himself a smart person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have treated the whole Eastern Administrative Region like a chessboard for so many years, manipulating so many demigods and high-level officials within his grasp.

Therefore, when Fang Ze entered his tent, he felt that something seemed a bit off.

And later, when Fang Ze mentioned some of his secret matters, he realized that things seemed to be gradually slipping out of his control.

And just now, when he discovered that Fang Ze knew not only about Outer Realm intelligence, but also the most important secrets between him and the Federation, he finally connected all the clues together.

What Fang Ze said was actually correct. The reason for his hurried initiation of the plan against Venerable Yuan Gu, aside from the mysterious deaths of Jiang Cheng and Qingping, was also due to this major shift in the Outer Realm.

Because the achievements of the Polaris plan had become increasingly prominent over the years, federal penetration into the Outer Realm has grown increasingly strong. Coupled with some peace-loving Venearables always sharing intelligence with the Federation, almost every major incident in the Outer Realm quickly becomes known to the Federation.

For instance, when Dahei Jialuo openly auctioned the Divine Fiend’s control method not long ago, only to be slain by the Bloody Colosseum during the auction, triggering a war among the Veneables, the Federation was the first to receive this news.

Later, Venerable Yuan Gu acted as a mediator, persuading over twenty Venerables to cease hostilities, and the Federation naturally received the relevant information.

Although there were too few parties involved in the mediation (only those twenty or so Venerables), the Federation couldn’t ascertain the specific reasons. Yet, based on some traces before and after the incident, they inferred some facts:

Yuan Gu is not among the powerful ones in Heaven Beyond the Heavens’ Venerables, so he definitely doesn’t have the clout to make over twenty Venerables cease their fight. The only link Yuan Gu has with this matter is his affiliation with Garo of Dahei Jialuo. Coupled with how Yuan Gu consistently denied having possession of the Divine Fiend control method before and after the auction, the Federation quickly judged the true essence of the entire matter: that Dahei Jialuo is likely problematic.

The Venerables likely realized that they were tricked by Dahei Jialuo or one of the mysterious persons disguised as Dahei Jialuo. That’s why they ceased hostilities and began searching for Dahei Jialuo or that mysterious person.

And the subsequent information indeed confirmed the Federation’s inference.

The only thing the Federation didn’t expect was that due to the gravity of this matter, Yuan Gu actually decided to abandon the two territories he arduously established in the Real World and return to the Outer Realm.

Although Yuan Gu’s descent was initially beyond the Federation’s expectations, afterward, when the Federation’s advisors carefully analyzed the pros and cons, they found that it was actually beneficial for the Federation.

Ultimately, the burden capability of Spirit Realm Mountain has an upper limit; someday, Venerables will descend to the Real World on a large scale.

Hence, the earlier the Federation obtains battle data of Venerables in the Real World, the more preparation time they have.

If after acquiring the combat data of Venerable Yuan Gu, it then takes decades, the Federation might construct military bases comparable to the Venerable level or develop secret techniques that can enhance oneself to the Venerable level in a short period without falling.

Thus, retaining Venerable Yuan Gu, or at least engaging him in combat several times to collect as much data as possible, became the Eastern Administrative Region’s primary task.

So, under this strategic shift, He Weidao’s original plan of "restricting, blockading, and observing Venerable Yuan Gu" turned into "harassing, delaying, and engaging Venerable Yuan Gu."

Only He Weidao and Chairperson Luo Su knew about these strategic changes throughout the Eastern Administrative Region. After all..... collecting data at the cost of lives, especially the lives of higher-ups, is not politically correct.

As for chairpersons from other states, commanders of military bases, and demigods, since they were unaware of the changes in the Outer Realm or even Yuan Gu himself planning to return to the Outer Realm, they were entirely kept in the dark by He Weidao, genuinely thinking He Weidao intended to expel Yuan Gu.

After reviewing the Federation’s strategic plan in his mind, He Weidao couldn’t help but focus again on Fang Ze.

Actually, his plan with the Federation wasn’t overly clever, relying primarily on an information gap. So, anyone acquainted with Outer Realm intelligence could unveil this plan.

However, now that the conversation reached this point, the question arose: How did Fang Ze come to know this intelligence?

And to such a detailed extent.

Keep in mind, much of this intelligence is only exchanged among the Venerables. Even the Federation obtained it through peace-loving Venearables.

Therefore, Fang Ze knowing this intelligence is inherently problematic.

And when considering the strong figure beside Fang Ze, whose presence even gave him pressure, coupled with Fang Ze’s incessant investigation into Dahei Jialuo over the years, a conjecture slowly formed in He Weidao’s mind.

He looked at Fang Ze and cautiously probed, "You... are the mysterious person who transformed into Dahei Jialuo and single-handedly disrupted Heaven Beyond the Heavens?"

Though He Weidao pondered much, in reality, only a few seconds elapsed. So, from Fang Ze’s perspective, as soon as he unveiled He Weidao and the Federation’s layout, He Weidao immediately inferred his identity.

This not only astonished Fang Ze inwardly but also led him to nod directly and admit, "Yes, it’s me."
