Chapter 712 – Heaven and Earth Association Group Chat

The snow-white divine steed beast appeared from the sea of clouds and slowly walked towards the immortal mountain.

It is like a divine beast above the nine heavens that is stepping into the mortal world.

White clouds rose from beneath its hooves, holding it up as it stepped into the void.

Buzz!

The air shook steeply, like ripples on water, which spread downward, outlining a bowl-shaped barrier that enveloped the rolling and cascading Immortal Mountains.

“Mountain guarding formation ……” The White Emperor knew that his position was too high and triggered the Heavenly Sect’s mountain guarding formation.

At that moment, a gap opened up in the formation, and an indifferent voice came in synchronization:

“A guest from afar, please, fellow Daoist.”

The head with the horns gave a slight nod as the White Emperor took a hoof step and disappeared into the air.

When it reappeared, it was at the top of the Immortal Mountain, the lofty and tall Immortal Palace.

Thick pillars supported the hundred-foot-high dome, and the pillars were carved with patterns of clouds, flames, and blistering winds, and the overall style was one of grandeur and loftiness intertwined with coldness and silence.

Because the fairy palace was empty, there were no furnishings.

At the end of the columns, on the tall pedestal was the lotus platform glittering with nine-colored light, the lotus petals slowly rotating, on which sat an old Taoist with white hair and white beard.

His eyes were closed and his head hung slightly, as if he were dozing.

The old Taoist priest’s appearance and temperament were plain and ordinary, but in Bai Di’s eyes, the old Taoist priest was somewhere between the real and the unreal, as if he was just a projection in history.

“You may call me Bai Di, that’s what the people of Yunzhou call me.”

The White Emperor spat out a low voice.

“What is the purpose of coming to my Heavenly Sect.”

The Heavenly Father wasn’t polite, his style of speaking was straightforward, and he didn’t have any mood swings because the visitor was of divine or demonic blood.

The White Emperor stood in the great hall, leveled his eyes at the Heavenly Father, and said:

“Back then, the Daofather expelled all the divine and demonic blood descendants from the continent of the Nine States, do you know about this.”

“Not really concerned.” So replied the Heavenly Father.

The White Emperor was unsurprised by the Heavenly Father’s attitude and said indifferently:

“The way you look, you remind me of Him back then.”

It continued:

“I went to the Southern Border to meet the Compassion God, and the Compassion God told me that the Daofather may have already perished. For the Compassion God to make such a judgment, the likelihood of Dao Zun perishing is extremely high. However, I couldn’t figure out that in the Nine States back then, the only existence that could threaten him was the sleeping Compassion God.

“But Daolord’s perishing clearly had nothing to do with the Compassionate God, so what exactly is the reason for a Superlative to perish?

“Those who can answer me, looking at the Nine States, are probably only the Compassion God, the Sorcerer God, the Buddha, and if the Confucian Sage isn’t dead, he counts as one. But these superpowers are either dead or sealed.

“Perhaps, you can answer me.”

A gust of wind blew into the great hall, and the mane on the White Emperor’s neck brushed lightly as its azure vertical pupils gazed at the Heavenly Father:

“I heard that second-ranked warlock in Yunzhou say that the Heavenly Father of the Taoist Sect would disappear for no reason.”

It suspected that the fall of the Dao Zun was of the same nature as the disappearance of the Celestial Zuns.

The Heavenly Father sat with his head hanging down and his eyes closed, not speaking, but a voice came:

“What’s it to me!”

The White Emperor didn’t get angry, and seemed to think that this was how the Heavenly Sect should be, and opened his mouth to ask:

“When I left the continent of the Nine States back then, there were many schools of Dao, but there was no Human Sect or Earth Sect. I heard that he founded them later? Does the Heaven Sect have the heart method of these two sects. I want to see the cultivation methods of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Sect.”

The Heavenly Dignitary was silent, but in front of the White Emperor, three tomes floated up, with blue covers, one of which read Tai Shang Oblivion.

The other two books are nowhere near as thick compared to “Too Much Forgetting”, not even half as thick.

The heart methods of the two human and earthly sects, the Heavenly Sect only had the opening chapter, and the higher depths would naturally not be there.

Bai Di gazed at the canonical books of the Human Sect and the Earth Sect.

“Claptrap …….”

The pages flipped quickly, and within a few moments they were at the bottom, and the White Emperor was silent, confusion flashing in his eyes:

“These two sects’ heart methods are very different from the Heavenly Sect and are extremely flawed. When His Holiness the Dao drove us out of the continent of Kyushu back then, we were already superbly qualified, so why bother in creating the Human Sect and the Earth Sect?”

With doubts, his eyes fell on the “too much forgetfulness” canon, the pages of the book “clattering” flipped, and soon saw the bottom.

Then once again, he flipped it over and over again, and Whitey read it several times and closed his eyes.

After a long time, it opened its azure beast eyes and a huge sigh echoed through the hall:

“I see what’s going on.”

“You also think He has perished?” The Heavenly Father opened his mouth in rare questioning.

The White Emperor was silent for a moment and slowly said:

“The matter here is too complicated for me to give an accurate answer. But as far as the current clues are concerned, Dao Zun did perish. The Confucian Sage is not the gatekeeper, and neither is Dao Zun, so who exactly is the gatekeeper ………”

It collected its thoughts and said, “I will not reveal this matter.”

The Heavenly Father sat silent and unresponsive.

The White Emperor turned around and disappeared into the great hall as white light.

…………

A flat boat, going with the flow.

The sunlight on the sea was cool, and Mu Nanjian, wearing a drapery hat with a fine veil hanging down and a thin dress, sat in a boat and fished.

Baiji dog-paddled in the swirling turquoise waves and circled around the flatboat, cheerful as a husky.

The short limbs ploughed vigorously in the clear water.

Xu Qi’an was naked, lying on the flatboat, holding pieces of the earth book in his hands, just like he was lying on his bed playing with his cell phone in his previous life, watching the members of the Tiandi Association pass on the book.

After a period of practicing, the men and horses under the command of the members of the Tiandi Association possessed a certain level of combat power, weaker than the regular army and stronger than the miscellaneous army.

Among them, Li Miaochen’s army was the strongest, Chu Yuanjian was the second strongest, and Li Lingsu was the weakest.

As for Hengyuan, because he couldn’t convince himself to plunder the rich merchants and families, he didn’t gather stragglers and form an army, but only helped the starving people as much as he could.

“Sometimes being too adamant about principles is a form of pedantry, Master Everest.”

Xu Qi’an commented silently in his heart.

It is not possible for people to stick to fixed principles forever, and those who know how to be flexible should consider changing their principles appropriately according to the environment and situation they are in.

Of course, this has to be within certain, reasonable limits.

[7: The day before yesterday, I was encircled by the government soldiers, and the ones who came were all elites. I didn’t want to fight to the death with the officers and soldiers, and led my troops to break out of the encirclement, but I didn’t realize that the group of officers and soldiers were in hot pursuit.]

Li Lingsu talked about the trouble he had recently encountered, when his base camp was annihilated by soldiers sent by the local authorities.

They had encountered this situation before, but they were all stragglers with little combat power, or simply militias formed by the local gentry.

This time it was different, this time the ones who came were elite and were equipped with military crossbows and cannons.

[2: About half a decade ago, I also encountered the imperial elite. What’s wrong with the Emperor? We helped him stabilize the situation and pacify the displaced people, and he didn’t even appreciate it, but he sent troops to surround us?

Flying Swallow Woman strikes hard inside the Tien-Di Association:

[There are so many troops, can’t you put them into Qingzhou? I see that this little emperor is not much better than his old man, all are corpses of people, see my mother early opportunity to stab him to death.]

[4: It shouldn’t be, although Yongxing didn’t agree to Erlang’s plan, he was moved by his heart and knew the beauty of this plan. Now that someone is risking the world for him, plundering the gentry’s prestigious families and pacifying the displaced people, he should be happy.]

Chu Yuanzhan did not encounter any siege, mainly because his territory was not fixed. Every once in a while, troops would be sent out to crusade against nearby roving bands of bandits, either eliminating or absorbing them.

Wherever you hit, stay there for a while and push your route slowly towards Qingzhou.

[I: It is precisely because it is not his promised one that I am uneasy.]

At this time, Huaiqing, the wise counselor of the Tiandi Association, sent a message:

[Since he didn’t agree, who was behind gathering the stragglers and accumulating power? Emperor Yongxing is afraid that he suspects that the mastermind behind this is a certain Prince. For example, this palace’s brother, Prince Yan.

[To an emperor, a brother who covets the throne is the same as a rebel.]

It dawned on the members of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Chu Yuanjian passed the book: [I see, long time not in the courtroom, my sense of smell become slow. Yongxing boldness is still not enough, in my place, simply will be a trick, first let the coveted throne of the brother to help stabilize the displaced people, such as winning the battle of Qingzhou, and then cross the river to break the bridge, or house arrest, or assassination, or will be the brother’s plot to the public.

[Anyway, as an emperor, it’s not too difficult to deal with a prince. As for the masters who gather stragglers outside, meh, since they were originally from the imperial court, then recruiting them can be said to be without difficulty. Even if there are one or two with inflated ambitions, they can be snuffed out.

[If you can’t win against the rebels, all is lost, and there is even less need to worry about the stragglers.]

Huaiqing Chuanshu commented: [Yongxing was originally a conservative ruler, in terms of ability, vigor, as well as sleight of hand, he could not manage the current situation].

Chu Yuanjian mused, [Compared to that, the Fourth Prince is indeed even more outstanding.]

In terms of ability, intelligence, and boldness, Prince Yan, Huaiqing’s sibling, was better than Emperor Yongxing.

It is a great sin to speak presumptuously of the king in a semi-public place.

However, Chu Yuanjian has long since withdrawn from the court for many years, and the Tien-Di Association per capita anti-bone boy, so there is no need to be jealous.

Angry as they were, the members of the Tien-Di Association were powerless to do anything about Emperor Yong Xing’s maneuvering.

First of all, this is the kind of operation that a king is supposed to have, and secondly, boldness and courage are not something that can be cultivated in a short period of time.

Yongxing Emperor is like this, no amount of scolding will help.

At that moment, Huaiqing passed the book:

[The other day, Emperor Yongxing gave Lin’an and Xu Qi’an a marriage.]

There was a steep silence within the Heaven and Earth Society.

Xu Qi’an couldn’t hold the pieces of the ground book steady and snapped it onto his face.

[2: What? It’s almost time for the country to fall apart, the little emperor still has the heart to worry about his sister’s marriage, he’s really a dimwitted ruler, I must stab him to death!

Li Miaozhen has put Yongxing Emperor on the must-kill list, which has nothing to do with giving marriage, but mainly because Yongxing Emperor is too dim and incompetent.

[1: This is a good thing, I thought that I should tell the State Master about such an important matter, but it is a pity that the State Master was not in the capital a while ago.]

[II: What the Princess said is very true.]

You really sent someone to Ling Bao Guan to inform the State Master? Xu Qi’an’s heart sank, thinking, “Myojin ah, you don’t need to stab, the State Master will do it for you. But my little Lin An is going to be in danger.

But he didn’t panic, because the state teacher who went back was the genuine cool imperial sister, the kind sister-in-law.

Not Sick Little Love, Steady Little Sorrow, and not Witch Little Evil.

A kind sister-in-law wouldn’t do such a thing.

[4: Ning Yan is going to be the emperor’s son-in-law ah.]

Chu Yuanjian gave his heartfelt blessing.

Bah, scum go to hell ………. Lee Ling Soo gave his heartfelt blessing:

[Congratulations to Brother Xu on becoming the emperor’s son-in-law. Well, I’ve had a sense of cultivation lately and couldn’t help but go to the capital to seek advice from the State Master. Ah, right Elder Xu, does Mrs. Xu know about this.]

The saintly son gradually began to yin and yang.

This damaged friend ………. The corner of Xu Qi’an’s mouth twitched, and he sheepishly glanced at Mu Nanjian who was concentrating on fishing.

If the Flower God knew about this, he would have to run to the Floating Pagoda again and practice Buddhism with the old monk of the Pagoda Spirit.

[2: Yes, congratulations to Xu Yinluo. Xu Yinluo will be the emperor’s son-in-law, and that’s what everyone wants. When will you get married? I’ll bring the folks from Tianzong to have dinner and drinks.

Daisy Phoenix is no worse than Crouching Dragon when it comes to being shady.

Li Lingsu arched his fire: [So why not marry Her Highness Huaiqing as well, and set a precedent for the Daebong, a beautiful story for the world].

Anyway, it was online, and there was no fear that Huaiqing and Xu Qi’an would kill them along the ground book.

Okay, when we return to Kyushu, I’ll gather all your confidants and let you have a good time ……….. Xu Qi’an wrote quickly with his fingers:

[The Southern Demons have driven the Buddhist Sect out of the Southern Border, and the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox has rebuilt the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.]

[Four: Nice.]

The members of the Heaven and Earth Society didn’t have much of a reaction, it was expected, after all, they had known that Xu Qi’an would help the Southern Demon to restore the country.

[Seven: Brother Xu is changing the subject?

Xu Qi’an let out a “heh”, thinking that the main event had yet to come.

[3: On my trip to the southern border here, I found out a great deal about the Buddha.]
