Yu Ziqing was not particularly polite, showing pity towards a Ninth Tier strong in person.
However, regardless of how the Tong Family Master felt or believed, his actions were honest, sealing the area and transforming it into a temporary secret chamber.
His mind was awash with thoughts, like tumultuous waves. Though he maintained control over his facial expressions, his eyes revealed a complexity he could not hide.
Seeing this scene, Yu Ziqing knew that the drama could continue.
Nowadays, it was not uncommon for more than one or two people to have practiced the Langya Incarnation Technique, so finding a Langya incarnation was not very difficult.
According to the usual course, Yu Ziqing should have started with an ordinary Langya incarnation for his experiments.
However, this matter was reversed; preliminary experiments could not be conducted on regular Langya incarnations.
Firstly, those with insufficient strength might lack a certain disposition, unknown willpower.
Secondly, even if they were willing to risk their lives to sever the connection between the incarnation and the original body, there was a great chance that the Divine Soul would shatter and they would die.
Either the Divine Soul couldn't be maintained and shattered, or they couldn't endure the pain of the Soul Destruction Blade, and shattered.
Ultimately, the result was death.
At the time of their death, to avoid exposure, Yu Ziqing could only wield the Compass, forcibly obliterating the rune with crude means.
Even if the original body did not receive the news, the severable connection between the incarnation and the original body would inevitably be exposed.
Thus, Yu Ziqing could only start by seeking the strongest Langya incarnation.
The strongest Langya incarnation now was probably at the Ninth Tier, likely only obtainable by the chief director of the dong chang.
To reach the Ninth Tier, one must have a steadfast will, an independent personality, independent thoughts, and overcome various difficulties to soar to the Ninth Tier.
Only such a person would contemplate this matter when told and might believe it.
Even if he did not believe, he certainly would not turn around to report to his original body.
Because even if there was a slight chance it was true, he would first confirm it for himself.
Similarly, only such a person could withstand the pain of the Soul Destruction Blade.
Like Zhong Shouzheng, whose Primordial Spirit nearly split into two, yet he still lived vibrantly.
If a Ninth Tier incarnation followed the path of Refining God Dao instead of the Qi Refining Dao, it would be much easier to handle.
Unfortunately, no Primordial Spirit Realm incarnation had been observed so far.
The chief director himself might not even dare to let his incarnation practice Refining God Dao.
In Yu Ziqing's mind, information about the Tong Family rapidly emerged.
Back when Su Li provided him with comprehensive details on the major forces of Dali, even if the Tong Family ranked lower in the first tier, it was still in the first tier.
Besides the current Family Head being Ninth Tier, the Tong Family also had an ancestor who was Ninth Tier.
However, it was rumored that the ancestor, whose lifespan was nearing its end, had not surfaced for a long time.
So old to the point where Qi-Blood declined, True Yuan began to wither, and strength had long fallen short of the peak period.
But it was still a Ninth Tier, and if the Tong Family faced a great catastrophe, that was their foundation.
Essentially, everyone now assumed the Tong Family ancestor was dead, only the Tong Family kept it secret.
The current pillar of the Tong Family was the Family Master, Tong Weishun.
He had six sons and three daughters, which, for a large family, was considered very few, following a policy of concentrating resources to nurture elites.
To inherit the Family Head position, the descendants could not be merely ordinary elites. They must have comprehensive skills, be outstanding in some areas, have no major weaknesses, possess good talent, and fortune, make enough effort, and have the bearing of the Ninth Tier.
In such a family, the descendants who were nurtured closely, even if they were not geniuses, were unlikely to be useless.
Tong Weishun, the Family Head, had also emerged through fierce competition.
Thankfully, Su Li's arranged information was quite detailed, especially about important figures like the Tong Family Master, who were recorded meticulously.
Looking at Tong Weishun's expression, Yu Ziqing sighed softly.
"It seems you are not convinced."
"How do I believe?" Tong Weishun's expression was complicated as his memories and thoughts began to clash.
Yu Ziqing spoke to himself.
"The chief director is just a eunuch, born a eunuch.
He grew up in the dark recesses of the palace city, accustomed to plots and killings since childhood, where lives were as worthless as grass.
What kind of person is he... forget it, setting him aside, today I address only you.
Consider your wife; when you were insignificant, just an unimportant illegitimate son, she followed you.
Now, today, exalted as the Family Head, you never took concubines, never kept paramours.
Is the affection between you and your wife false?"
"Do you not wish for your descendants and heirs to face the taunts of legitimate heirs, nor malice from other illegitimate sons, nor even be able to call your own mother 'mother'?
Your relatives, your friends, your enemies, these ultimately are not false.
Your joyous smiles, your tears of sorrow, your attachment, your resentment, these ultimately are not false.
Your life is yours alone.
Whether you are an incarnation or a victim of some Evil Skill, or can be said to be both; it matters not.
You strived your whole life to reach today.
I only ask you, are you willing to abandon the wife who shared weal and woe with you all your life?"
