Chapter 834: The Three Aspects Reunite as One
Chapter 834: The Three Aspects Reunite as One
Sai Bayar didn't hide his intentions, "Yes, I lean towards Noerland, but Noerland is far enough from us that we can borrow their strength without them being able to effectively control us. This gives us enough autonomy and prevents us from being constrained by them in every aspect."
"Moreover, to make us confront Great Harmony Republic, they will spare no effort in supporting us. This gives us more opportunities to develop our own technology and industries."
Chen Chuan paused, thinking. In order to cope with the great collision, the major powers were concentrating their resources as much as possible. However, this had created a certain competition among the major powers. To prevent themselves from falling behind or allowing other countries to become too powerful, the major powers were tripping each other up. As a result, small countries became the sacrificial victims caught in the middle.
These small countries not only had to provide various resources to the major powers but also had to be pushed to the forefront to fight, which was indeed quite distressing.
Sai Bayar continued, "Hmm, thinking about it now, I wonder if the news of my return has already reached Zhen Guan, so he's been hiding and waiting for an opportunity. This time, you won't be able to win."
Zhen Guan was referring to the fighter in the capital city of Barkut.
Chen Chuan had a different opinion on this matter.
The foreign intelligence department of Great Harmony Republic didn't know about his return, and the person in Barkut couldn't have known either. Even if they had known, they would have definitely informed him beforehand and wouldn't have deliberately concealed it.
Because without knowing his strength, they wouldn't dare to let him face two fighters alone. If something went wrong, Great Harmony Republic would definitely hold him accountable.
Suddenly, Sai Bayar spoke up again, "Do you know why Tamur willingly died at my hands?" Without waiting for Chen Chuan to ask, he continued, "This is because, in our Besa Khanate's 'Puchan Wenjing,' the one who establishes the heavens is Shi Yi, and Shi Yi transforms into three aspects: Dabuchatta Wang, Moliti Wang, and Vira Devi.
We three each cultivate one aspect, and when the three aspects unite, we can achieve Shi Yi, greatly enhancing our original power level. This time, if I obtain Tamur's strength, I can make Zhen Guan surrender his power, and Besa Khanate will no longer be a small country!"
Chen Chuan understood. He wasn't sure if the unification of the three aspects would lead to a higher level, but transcending the current level was possible.
Fighters also had varying strengths, and if a powerful fighter emerged, they could indeed gain some influence. Perhaps they could even expand their country's territory to some extent.
The unification of the three aspects required the sacrifice of two people, and all three of them must have had similar thoughts. This time, an opportunity had presented itself.
He looked at the man on the ground, "This should be your secret. Why are you telling me this?"
Sai Bayar said, "We are the losers in this game. Zhen Guan will definitely take our strength to achieve his own goals. What will you choose to do? Kill us or take us back?"
Chen Chuan understood. No wonder the other party was willing to tell him these things. If they directly killed the two people, it would be unfavorable for Great Harmony Republic's public opinion and would give other countries an opportunity to intervene.
If they didn't kill them, in the end, Zhen Guan might benefit. But when that time came, would he still listen to Great Harmony Republic's government after gaining enough strength?
However, at the root of it all, Sai Bayar didn't want to die. He didn't want to be taken back, so he told Chen Chuan these things.
Chen Chuan said, "I won't kill you, nor will I leave you here. I'll take you to Barkut. I've done what I should, and from now on, it's your own Besa Khanate's business. You'll have to figure it out yourselves."
Sai Bayar was startled and seemed resistant, "I thought you would consider Great Harmony Republic's interests. You wouldn't do this."
Chen Chuan said, "There's no need."
Sai Bayar seemed to understand, "You think that even if the three aspects unite, Great Harmony Republic still has enough strength to suppress us? Then you underestimate the power of the three aspects' unification. Moreover, when strength reaches a certain level, it's not just about brute force suppression. It also requires the respect it deserves. I dare say that once Zhen Guan gains power, he won't respect you as much as he used to. He will be courted by more countries."
Chen Chuan said, "According to what you're saying, isn't that beneficial for your country?"
Sai Bayar fell silent.
Chen Chuan said, "Although I don't know what level of power the unification of the three aspects will reach, I know that if such a power emerges, it must have matching resources.
As far as I know, Besa Khanate is already struggling to support one or two fighters. Otherwise, you wouldn't have had to go abroad. After the unification of the three aspects, the consumption required will be even greater, and you can't afford it. In the end, you'll still have to seek help from the outside. Since Besa Khanate is right next to Great Harmony Republic, the cost of supporting you is much lower than that of other countries. So, I believe that even when the time comes, the situation won't change much."
Sai Bayar's face changed slightly upon hearing this, and he fell silent.
Chen Chuan looked up at the sky. Under the pressure of the great collision, a large number of fighters had emerged, and the world had begun to consolidate itself to support these fighting forces. As a result, after the dissolution of the coalition, one could see the emergence of superpowers and regional forces.
Small countries like Besa Khanate only existed as buffers between major powers, and the fighters they could support were limited in number and strength. If they wanted to improve, they still had to seek help from major powers to secure their resources. No matter how hard they struggled, it was futile.
He turned and walked outside, circled around, and found a fully fueled off-road vehicle below. He returned to the vehicle, brought the two people down, and placed them in the car. Then, he drove back.
After more than two hours, the strong winds gradually subsided. He reunited with Chao Ming and, under Chao Ming's guidance, found the driver who was rushing towards them. Upon learning that he had completed his task, the driver was delighted and promptly used the radio to report back. Together, they headed back.
The next day, just before dawn, Chen Chuan saw the light emanating from the inner ring of Balktu.
It was as if a giant fire disc had descended upon a high mountain, and the surrounding buildings, scattered with twinkling lights, looked extremely prosperous. This was something that couldn't be compared to anywhere else in Besa Khanate.
At that moment, a hot air balloon he had seen before, spraying colored smoke, flew out from the city and headed towards them. As it approached, it slowly descended.
Chen Chuan stopped his vehicle accordingly.
After the hot air balloon came to a stop, a man dressed in the traditional robes of Besa Khanate descended from it. It was none other than the revered Zhen Guan, revered as a deity in the capital of Balktu.
Zhen Guan had a refined appearance, his skin well-maintained, and looked to be in his early thirties based on his outward appearance. He didn't resemble a martial artist at all but rather a religious scholar immersed in scriptures.
Zhen Guan performed an outer Zen ritual towards Chen Chuan and spoke in a gentle and standard Great Shun language, "Mr. Chen, I am honored to invite you to Balktu Palace as a guest for your efforts in resolving this difficult matter."
Chen Chuan replied, "There's no need for that. I have already obtained the item the nation entrusted me with. I need to return it as soon as possible. The person is from your Besa Khanate, and I'm handing him over to you. You can handle it yourself, Zhen Guan."
Zhen Guan glanced at the two men and bowed respectfully to Chen Chuan, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your mercy."
At this moment, Sai Bayar coldly mocked, "Zhen Guan, you don't need to put on such an act. We three have all sworn an oath. Whoever defeats the other two will have the right to absorb their powers and become Shi Yi. You won the victory, even with the help of Great Shun. But in our Besa Khanate, we value both strength and wisdom. Since you are the winner, it's up to you to do this."
"What if we seek Shi Yi? What then?"
Zhen Guan sighed.
"That would only increase the burden on Besa Khanate. Our Converged Land can barely support one person, and the other can barely get by with a little. If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have to seek other means."
He looked at Chen Chuan, "Mr. Chen, I know that I'm speaking hypocritically after benefiting myself. But I also know that even with my martial prowess, I cannot change the order of the nation from above. If we want to change, we must first destroy, and destruction is easy. But to rebuild is difficult.
How can a weak and bleeding beast withstand the covetousness of tigers and wolves?
Besa Khanate only seeks a place to lean on, a shelter from the wind and rain. Perhaps this way, we can prolong our existence for a few more years. We dare not think beyond that."
Chen Chuan understood that this was his stance, whether these words were true or not. In any case, the higher-ups would handle it. He said, "I will deliver the words of the master as they are."
Zhen Guan said, "In that case, I won't delay Mr. Chen any further. I'll have someone send Mr. Chen off, and since you came to our country, I feel it's impolite not to have entertained you properly. So, I've prepared some gifts as a token of my apologies. I hope Mr. Chen will not refuse."
Chen Chuan did not decline. After handing over the person to Zhen Guan, he called out to Chao Ming, who was flying above, and got into the driver's vehicle. Soon, they departed from the area.
Zhen Guan watched him leave, bowing respectfully and maintaining his posture for a long time.
Sai Bayar sarcastically remarked from behind, "Alright, he's gone. You don't need to put on such a show."
Zhen Guan didn't explain but walked back and untied the bindings on him and Tamur.
Sai Bayar was surprised. He hesitated and said, "You... you don't intend to..."
Zhen Guan took a few steps back and looked down, saying, "With you on the outside, Great Shun will support me."
Sai Bayar was taken aback. He snorted, "You're quite straightforward." He thought for a moment, "Zhen Guan, what you said to him earlier made some sense, but you don't have to worry about things like cultivation resources. I know of a way..."
Zhen Guan sighed, "Have you had contact with them?"
Sai Bayar said, "They approached me first. They're willing to provide resources first. Who knows what will happen when Dahongzhuang arrives?"
Zhen Guan said, "Neither Great Shun nor Norland is something we can easily manipulate or deceive. Do you think we can't do without me?"
Sai Bayar was surprised. His expression changed several times, and he said reluctantly, "So, we can't do anything? We can't change anything?"
Zhen Guan said, "Besa Khanate has tried in the past, but what good did it do to take advantage of East Land's weakness? In the end, we had to return what we took. If it's not meant for us, we shouldn't dwell on it. Unless..."
He looked up at the sky, "If heaven and earth change, then perhaps there's a glimmer of hope. But who knows what the future will bring?"
