This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
In the Great Xia Dynasty.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s face turned pale.
He looked at Taishang Xuanji, who was kneeling on the ground, with anger in his gaze.
He had asked Taishang Xuanji to investigate Su Changyu’s whereabouts.
However, he didn’t expect Su Changyu to have gone missing.
How could he not be infuriated?
Twenty-seven years ago, Su Changyu had disappeared once, and now, he disappeared again.
The same thing happened twice. How could the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty not be furious?
“Your Majesty, according to the scouts, Changyu disappeared at the Jin Nation Teleportation Array.”
“He originally intended to come to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.”
“However, for some reason, he did not appear in the capital. I’ve already sent people to investigate and we found out that there’s something wrong with the Teleportation Array. Changyu might have been… teleported to somewhere else.”
Taishang Xuanji lowered his head, not daring to continue.
“He got teleported to somewhere else?”
“Where?”
“Taishang Xuanji, you’d better tell me the truth. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty slammed his hand hard against the table.
He knew that Taishang Xuanji was definitely not telling the truth, so he compelled him to speak up.
“Your Majesty, the Teleportation Array involves spatial formations, and I cannot find out anything about it. We can only rely on the divinations of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.”
“But don’t worry, Your Majesty, Changyu is blessed. I’m sure he won’t encounter any danger.”
“He might have the opportunity of creation.”
Taishang Xuanji could only use such words to comfort the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
He couldn’t possibly say that Su Changyu was about to be doomed.
“Opportunity of creation?”
“Hmph! There are opportunities of creation everywhere in the treasure vault of the Great Xia Dynasty. Why does he need it?”
The emperor’s voice was full of anger.
To him, the Great Xia Dynasty would give Su Changyu everything he needed.
What was a creation considered?
“You’re right, Your Majesty. I was wrong.”
At this moment, there was nothing Taishang Xuanji could say. Anyway, he would just take the scolding.
At this moment, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty spoke again.
“Xuanji, relay my orders now. Resort to all means to find Changyu. If anything terrible happens to Changyu, I’ll hold you responsible.”
As he spoke, he took out a dragon talisman.
He looked at Taishang Xuanji.
“Xuanji.”
“I’m here.”
Taishang Xuanji knelt on the ground and looked at the dragon talisman that landed in front of him, overwhelmed with shock.
That was the dragon talisman.
The dragon talisman of the Great Xia Dynasty was a supreme talisman.
“Deploy the imperial guards of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Five Divine Battalions, the Golden Dragon Guards, Black Dragon Guards, and Violet Dragon Guards to quickly check up on Changyu. Even if you have to search high and low in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, you must find Changyu. Do you understand?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty ordered.
“Yes.”
“But…”
Taishang Xuanji swallowed his saliva.
At this moment, the reaction of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty made Taishang Xuanji completely understand how important Su Changyu was to the emperor.
The Great Xia Dynasty imperial guards, Five Divine Battalions, Golden Dragon Guards, Black Dragon Guards, and Violet Dragon Guards.
That was half of the military force stationed in the Great Xia Dynasty.
There were a total of three million troops and it seemed a little exaggerated to send such a huge military manpower to search for Su Changyu.
More importantly, the huge manpower would definitely arouse suspicion.
“What?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty frowned and looked at the latter.
“Your Majesty, I’m afraid we’ll arouse unnecessary suspicion if we deploy so many troops.”
“I hope that you will reconsider this.”
Although Taishang Xuanji obeyed the order, he could not help but admonish the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, hoping that he wouldn’t let his recklessness rule his head.
“What’s the trouble?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty looked at Taishang Xuanji calmly with a cold gaze.
Sensing the cold gaze in the eyes of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Taishang Xuanji was a little scared but he couldn’t help but speak up.
“Your Majesty, if you mobilize such a large army, there will be three problems that we have to face.”
“Firstly, there are now five major dynasties here and they have all already put pressure on the sacred lands of the various immortal sects. These sacred lands of the immortal sects have become more and more sensitive.”
“If we rashly dispatch the troops, I’m afraid that those immortal sects and saints will find out and then mistakenly think that the Great Xia Dynasty is going to start a new order.”
“If that is the case, there will be lots of civil unrest in the Great Xia Dynasty.”
“Secondly, there will be chaos and internal strife. Now that the Heavenly Fiend Cult has been revived, there will be a considerable impact if the Heavenly Fiend Cult forces roam around in the major sacred lands, even though we don’t know who is behind them.”
“Thirdly, it’s again the issue about the internal strife. If the opposing troops find out that we’ve suddenly deployed a large military power, they will definitely investigate seriously. Once they find out that the Tenth Prince is still alive, there will definitely be more trouble.”
“Your Majesty, how about this? I’ll make a trip to the Jin Nation personally and ask the king to thoroughly investigate this matter. I will also supervise the whole process and strive to find Changyu within a month.”
Taishang Xuanji suggested.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t empathize with the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, but rather, he understood the feelings of the people of the world even more.
Deploying three million troops in one breath would result in civil unrest in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Taishang Xuanji’s voice made the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty gradually calm down.
It was not that the emperor was not smart, he was just momentarily overwhelmed by anger.
However, he regained his rationality in a moment’s time.
He knew that Taishang Xuanji made a lot of sense and there was nothing wrong with his words.
At the thought of this, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty finally took a deep breath.
He said slowly, “No matter what, bring the Golden Dragon Guards along.”
That was the emperor’s final compromise. He didn’t find it safe enough to rely only on the national power of Jin Nation and would be more at ease if the Golden Dragon Guards were deployed.
“Yes.”
“Your Majesty is wise.”
Taishang Xuanji knelt on the ground and exhaled a long breath. He was really worried that the emperor would be impulsive. Besides, his subjects would have to obey all his orders.
“Xuanji, if you don’t find Changyu…”
“You should know the consequences.”
Finally, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty slowly spoke very clearly.
Taishang Xuanji also understood. Hence, he immediately got up, bowed to the emperor again, and left the place with the Dragon Talisman.
After he left, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was the only one left in the main hall.
However, someone soon spoke up.
“Your Majesty, Defender Marquis is here.”
After he heard that, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s expression gradually became calmer.
“Come in.”
In the next moment, a figure walked into the hall.
Clad in a four-clawed python robe, he looked very majestic and walked on a steady and formidable gait.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.”
The Defender Marquis bowed to the emperor.
The marquises of the Great Xia Dynasty did not have to kneel to the emperor.
The Defender Marquis, Marquis Qingming, was one of the 19 marquises of the Great Xia Dynasty.
There were three kings and 19 marquises in the Great Xia Dynasty. The Defender Marquis was the most powerful person apart from the emperor and crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty.
“Forgo the formality.”
The emperor said slowly. His expression was extremely calm and all his emotions were hidden.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty continued to speak.
“How’s the discussion going?”
“I went to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Great Li Dynasty, and the Great Ze Dynasty to negotiate.”
“The Great Zhou Dynasty and Great Li Dynasty are willing to start the new policy together with the Great Xia Dynasty. This matter has already been agreed upon, but the Great Ze Dynasty does not want the Great Xia Dynasty to take the lead even though they’re interested.”
The Defender Marquis answered.
His words made the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty frown slightly.
“Must the Great Ze Dynasty compete even in the implementation of a new policy?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked with a frown.
“Your Majesty, in recent years, the Great Ze Dynasty has been advancing rapidly and they think that they’re already the top of the five major dynasties. They’ve even repeatedly gotten into a conflict with the Great Qian Dynasty.”
“Besides, the implementation of the new policy will benefit both the nation and the people. If we succeed, we will be able to obtain the destiny of heaven and earth. Naturally, the Great Ze Dynasty would want to be the leader.”
“However, since this is Your Majesty’s idea, we can’t let the Great Ze Dynasty snatch it away, so I didn’t agree to anything.”
The Defender Marquis said.
“At the end of the day, it’s still a battle of luck.”
“Hmph, the Great Ze Dynasty has been coveting the Great Xia Dynasty over the years, but they ought to remember that although the Great Xia Dynasty’s national luck has indeed declined over the years, we are not pushovers.”
“Qingming, make a trip to the Great Zhou and Great Li Dynasties. Since the Great Ze Dynasty doesn’t want to, we won’t bring them along.”
“Once the new policy is implemented, it will benefit the country and the people. With this opportunity, I can also step down from the throne and let the Crown Prince ascend to the throne. There will be peace and the luck of the Great Xia Dynasty will definitely soar.”
“Qingming, you have to handle this matter well. If you do, there will be four kings in the Great Xia Dynasty instead of three.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s words made Marquis Qingming excited.
King!
That title had a huge appeal to the courtiers of the Great Xia Dynasty.
What is a king?
A king is one who can have an equal standing with the emperor.
The three hereditary kings of the Great Xia Dynasty had done great merit for the Great Xia Dynasty.
Two of the kings had achieved immense merit and thus raised the bar for marquises and kings in the future.
Naturally, the temptation of becoming the king was too great for the marquis.
“I will do my best.”
Marquis Qingming took a deep breath and said so.
“Alright, Qingming, do your best and don’t let me down.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty nodded.
He asked Marquis Qingming to leave.
The latter didn’t say much. He then turned around to leave.
After Marquis Qingming left, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn’t help but look at a piece of white paper on the table.
The words ‘prohibit immortals’ were written on it.
That was the new policy of the Great Xia Dynasty.
It was also the thing that the various major dynasties had to accomplish now.
The so-called prohibition of immortals was the complete suppression of all immortal sects and sacred lands.
All land belonged to the king.
They wanted to conquer all land.
That was the goal of the Great Xia Dynasty and the four other major dynasties.
The battle of the world was a battle of luck.
The sacred land of the immortal sects was the extreme Dao.
They hoped to rely on the Three Thousand Great Dao to clinch the immortal position.
The battle between dynasties was a battle of the luck of the world.
However, the five dynasties were now at their pinnacle. Even though the luck of the Great Xia Dynasty had rapidly declined, they were still a hegemon.
Hence, there hadn’t been a unification of the five dynasties.
However, the five dynasties were very close to clinching the luck of immortals.
Hence, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty thought of a solution.
That was to plunder the luck of the sacred lands and complete the unification. That would not only increase the luck, but also stabilize the dynasty.
It was to use martial arts to reinforce the prohibition.
The sacred lands of the immortal sects had been a thorn in the flesh of the dynasties, and it would naturally be a good thing for them if they could obtain the immortal position while suppressing the immortal sects.
Prohibiting immortals.
That was the new policy.
However, they had to plan for that continuously.
They could not be casual with it.
Otherwise, it would instantly lead to chaos in the world.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was well aware of that.
So were the emperors of the other four dynasties.
Time passed very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
In the Qingyun Mountain Range of the Jin Nation.
Two figures were walking in the mountain range.
They were Ye Ping and Xue Zhuan.
Lin Bei planned to stay in Chenzhou to appraise treasures. Although the Chenzhou Treasure Appraisal Meet had already ended, Lin Bei refused to leave because he hadn’t found any treasures yet.
As for Ye Ping, he followed Xue Zhuan back to the sect.
“What?”
“You learned it?”
“What did you learn?”
Xue Zhuan asked.
He looked at Ye Ping with curiosity.
He was somewhat confused about what Ye Ping meant.
“Senior Brother, I seem to have learned the Omnipotent Wealth that you imparted to me a few days ago.”
Ye Ping answered.
However, Xue Zhuan was dumbstruck.
‘Omnipotent Wealth?’
‘I made that up myself.’
‘You managed to learn it?’
‘Ye Ping, you might have extraordinary aptitude, but you shouldn’t blow your trumpet like this.’
‘If you want to say that you know a little bit of the Sword Dao or alchemy, that’d be fine. But you learned this too?’
On the mountain.
Xue Zhuan found it strange.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Ye Ping, but mainly because what he had taught Ye Ping was something that he had made up.
‘You managed to learn it?’
‘That doesn’t make sense at all.’
‘Do you know what immortal cultivation is about at all?’
“Little Junior Brother.”
Even though he was criticizing Ye Ping, Xue Zhuan could only cough a little before continuing.
“Do you know why you were able to comprehend?”
Xue Zhuan asked Ye Ping.
Ye Ping was at a loss for an answer.
However, after thinking about it, Ye Ping tried to ask.
“Did you intervene?”
Ye Ping asked.
“That’s right.”
Xue Zhuan told Ye Ping. He didn’t care if Ye Ping had learned it or not, he was going to boast first.
“I was scared that you can’t learn it, so I spent lots of Spirit Stones to demonstrate it. But since you managed to learn it, it’s all worth it.”
Xue Zhuan’s voice was calm and he seemed transcendent.
Ye Ping was, of course, extremely grateful.
“Thank you for your kindness, Fourth Senior Brother. Unfortunately, I can’t repay you.”
Ye Ping thanked him gratefully.
However, Xue Zhuan shook his head to gesture that there was no need to repay him.
“Ye Ping, you’re my junior brother, you don’t have to be so polite.”
Xue Zhuan didn’t think that Ye Ping had really learned it.
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly spread from the Qingyun Dao Sect.
“Ye Ping, hurry.”
A voice sounded.
It belonged to Xiao Muxue.
Upon hearing her voice, Ye Ping immediately headed to the sect.
Although he didn’t know why she wanted to see him, he knew that it must be for something urgent.
