Although they were shocked by Zhang Yun's talent and strength, as well as his miraculous methods of subduing Star Realm demonic beasts, they would not forget that after this incident, the Jianglan Holy Temple would definitely send a powerful expert, who would most likely seek revenge for Zhang Tiangu and Elder Yu.
The Lord of Jianglan Holy Temple is at the late stage of the Star Realm, and there are several other elders at the Star Realm in the temple. If they join forces with the Holy Gate to deal with the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace may very well cease to exist!
Even with this thought in mind, Qin Wuyai still felt that Zhang Yun had oversimplified things. So, before things became clear, he chose not to offend Zhang Yun and also to temporarily avoid becoming friends with him.
Let's assess the situation first.
As the crown prince of Qin, his choices would affect the future of the entire Qin royal family, so he had to be cautious.
Since Zhang Yun dared to issue the order to kill all the powerful figures in the Jianglan Holy Temple, he must have considered it carefully.
The Jianglan Holy Temple will likely send a Star Realm expert to probe first. It is unlikely that the Jianglan Holy Temple will launch a full-scale attack on his Zhutian Palace until the time is right. After all, the two sides are evenly matched in terms of their highest combat power on the surface. Once the war starts, it is still unknown who will be stronger.
This gave Zhang Yun time to recuperate.
For Zhang Yun, advancing to the Star Realm at an extraordinary speed was only a matter of time.
"Xinyan, I'm giving you a task now," Zhang Yun said to Zhuo Xinyan.
"Master, please give your orders. Xinyan will do her utmost to fulfill them and will never fail your expectations," Zhuo Xinyan replied, clasping her hands in a fist salute. (The last part, "My body contains countless worlds," appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)

Chapter 276 Little Cutie
"Master, please give your orders. Xin Yan will do her best to complete them," Zhuo Xin Yan replied, clasping her hands in a fist salute.
"In the next few days, the Jianglan Holy Temple will definitely send powerful experts to investigate the strength of my Zhutian Palace. You and Xiao Ba will go together to deal with them. Remember, you must be tough and not show any weakness," Zhang Yun instructed. With the eight-winged fire bat as a mount, Zhuo Xinyan's safety would be guaranteed.
Furthermore, he will be staying in the Palace of All Heavens during this period, so if any unexpected situation arises, such as his predictions being wrong, he can rescue Zhuo Xinyan immediately.
"Yes, Master!"
Zhang Yun crossed his arms and surveyed the entire Jinxiu Valley.
In the beautiful valley, there are lush forests and spacious open spaces. It is surrounded by towering peaks that reach into the clouds, and in the distance there is a shimmering lake. The scenery is picturesque, with the water and sky blending into one, but it does not look like a sect at all.
Since the Hall of All Heavens is located here, it should resemble a sect.
"Qianzhi, I have a task for you."
As he spoke, Zhang Yun took out a purple-gold card from his spatial storage and handed it to Ye Qianzhi, saying, "Go to the city and find some skilled construction workers. Price is not a problem, but don't get ripped off."
"Okay!" Ye Qianzhi's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Sister Xinyan, let's go."
Zhang Yun just smiled. He knew that Ye Qianzhi had always been playful since she was a child, but she just didn't show it in front of strangers.
"Um, sisters, may I go?"
Just then, the Golden-Eyed Spotted Ox suddenly spoke, causing Ye Qianzhi and Zhuo Xinyan to look at it with a strange expression, both scrutinizing its enormous body, which was over several meters long.
Such a huge size would be far too conspicuous to enter the city.
Are all monsters simple-minded and incapable of thinking?
"It's alright, I can transform!" The Golden-Eyed Spotted Ox naturally saw the doubt in Ye Qianzhi and the other person's eyes.
As soon as the words were spoken, both Ye Qianzhi and Zhuo Xinyan showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Ye Qianzhi asked curiously, "Transformation? Can you actually transform into human form?"
She had heard since childhood that some powerful demonic beasts, or those with special bloodlines or abilities, could transform into human form and blend into the human world without any sense of incongruity.
Does the Golden-Eyed Spotted Cow also possess the ability to transform into a human?
Zhuo Xinyan and Zhang Yun shared the same idea.
However, they were all wrong.
The golden-eyed spotted cow's massive body flashed with golden light, and then its figure rapidly shrank to the size of a normal cow. When it shrank to the size of a normal cow, a strange look appeared in Ye Qianzhi's beautiful eyes.
The thought of myself and Sister Xinyan leading a cow around the streets felt rather strange.
But the next moment, she completely abandoned the idea.
The golden-eyed spotted ox's body continued to shrink, eventually shrinking to the size of a palm, which even surprised Zhang Yun.
The difference between its enormous body, which was several meters long, and its size, shrinking to the size of a palm in the blink of an eye is simply too great.
"Wow, little calf, you're so cute!"
Ye Qianzhi's beautiful eyes immediately brightened. She held the golden-eyed spotted cow in her palm with her fair hands, then hugged it to her chest, her eyes showing undisguised affection.
In the past few days in the Monster Mountain Range, Ye Qianzhi had seen many monsters, but she had rarely seen such an adorable little pet.
Moreover, if one did not see it with their own eyes, who would have thought that this tiny, adorable creature was actually transformed from a massive, clumsy golden-eyed spotted cow?
However, the little guy was lying in Ye Qianzhi's arms with a look of enjoyment, occasionally snuggling closer and murmuring, "So...so...so soft!"
Ye Qianzhi was stunned by the golden-eyed spotted calf's words. This calf actually...
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes and said coldly, "Xiao Jin, watch your words and actions."
"What's wrong with my words and actions? They're just naturally soft." The golden-eyed spotted cow blinked, its expression innocent, which made Zhang Yun speechless. He didn't know if the golden-eyed spotted cow was genuinely innocent or just pretending.
"Pfft."
