Considering Changcun Immortal Elder is old, he shouldn't be too happy or too sad, Jiang Li decided to ask the question tactfully.
"The Red Dust Fairy is resurrected, what do you think?"
Changcun Immortal Elder's blood rushed to his head, and he stood up abruptly, using several Immortal Technique-level cleansing spells on himself. His spine gradually straightened, and he dressed himself in front of the bronze mirror, changing into Immortal Clothes.
Pure Heart Saintess only felt a flash, and he had changed from a farming old man to a rather old but elegant elder.
Without a word, Changcun Immortal Elder turned into a stream of light and flew towards the Red Dust Pure Land.
Before he could fly out of the cave, Jiang Li grabbed his ankle and dragged him back.
"Let go of me, let go of me, don't stop me from finding love!" Changcun Immortal Elder struggled hard, but Jiang Li held him tightly with both hands, unable to move.
"Can you call that love? I'm embarrassed to even mention it." Jiang Li curled his lips.
When the Red Dust Fairy first descended to the lower realm, she caused quite a stir. Changcun Immortal Elder, seeing an opportunity, went to take a look and immediately knelt on the ground, saying that he had found love and wanted to worship the Red Dust Fairy for the rest of his life.
After calming down, he said that the Red Dust Fairy was the embodiment of the "beauty" of the Heavenly Dao.
He was too embarrassed to say this in front of Pure Heart Saintess.
"Let go of me, you're bullying an old man!"
Pure Heart Saintess looked at this scene in surprise, not because of Changcun Immortal Elder's gaffe, but because Jiang Li could easily subdue a genuine Immortal!
After a while, Changcun Immortal Elder calmed down.
"You see the charm of the Red Dust Fairy, even Immortals can't resist it." Jiang Li said to Pure Heart Saintess.
This example was very convincing.
She hadn't seen the gaffe of Meng Jiang Emperor and the other two, and she didn't know the reason for Xuan'ai Daoist's coup.
This was the first time Pure Heart Saintess had seen someone go crazy because of the Red Dust Fairy, and it was an Immortal.
"So the Red Dust Fairy is really resurrected?" Changcun Immortal Elder knew that Jiang Li wouldn't joke about this kind of thing, but he couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Li and Pure Heart Saintess told Changcun Immortal Elder the whole story. Changcun Immortal Elder pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that a new soul has been born in the flesh!"
"There are examples of this in the Immortal Realm. After an Immortal dies, the Immortal Power remains in the body without leaking. The flesh is immortal, and after a long time, it may give birth to intelligence, without the original memory of the body, becoming a completely new existence. Among them, Immortals who cultivate the body are most likely to encounter this situation."
"Didn't you propose the theory of the birth of a new soul? Flesh and blood beings belong to this category. Whether it's spiritual power or Immortal Power, it will eventually lead to the creation of a new soul."
"Then why is she always sleeping?"
"Psychological problems. The newly born soul knows nothing about itself and the world, and it possesses extremely vast power. They will feel confused and scared, and like to use sleep to escape."
"Didn't you tell the Red Dust Fairy some things about her, and the time she sleeps is constantly decreasing? This is the process of gradually accepting herself."
Changcun Immortal Elder had stayed in the Immortal Realm for tens of thousands of years, and he was knowledgeable. After listening, he could make reasonable inferences and solve Jiang Li's doubts in a few words.
Seeing Changcun Immortal Elder eager to try, Jiang Li warned, "Don't sneak into the Red Dust Pure Land while the Red Dust Fairy is just born."
"How could I! Am I that kind of person!" Changcun Immortal Elder felt that Jiang Li was belittling his character, so he turned his head away, not daring to look at him.
How did this kid see through his thoughts at a glance?
"I'm not kidding you. What should we do with the Red Dust Fairy? It's okay if she stays in the Red Dust Pure Land all the time, but what if she wants to go out? Should we let her out? I have no idea yet. Only a few people know about her, so don't make trouble!"
Seeing Jiang Li's serious expression, Changcun Immortal Elder knew he wasn't joking. Being told about the Red Dust Fairy's revival was a sign of trust, and as his senior, he certainly couldn't betray the junior's trust.
"Yes, I understand."
Seeing Changcun Immortal Elder's solemn promise, Jiang Li relaxed his expression: "There's one more thing."
Jiang Li then told Changcun Immortal Elder about the Black-Clothed Man spreading the Demonic Path and plotting three hundred and eighty years in advance.
More than two months had passed since Jiang Yixing cultivated the Demonic Path, and Jiang Yixing had long been executed. As Human Emperor Jiang Li's cousin, Jiang Li had personally sent Jiang Yixing to prison. All sorts of eye-catching information had spread throughout the Nine Provinces, causing a huge reaction.
Some people thought Jiang Li put righteousness before family and supported Jiang Li. Some felt that Jiang Li should have executed Jiang Yixing when he discovered he was cultivating the Demonic Path, without going through legal procedures. Others believed that Jiang Li sending his own brother to prison was inhumane.
No one suspected that Jiang Li was also cultivating the Demonic Path.
The most direct impact of this incident was that the speed at which the bronze cauldron in the Human Emperor Palace collected Faith Power slowed down slightly.
However, Changcun Immortal Elder had been staying in Dao Sect for many years, and Pure Heart Saintess had just come out of the mountain, so they didn't know about this.
"Why could this Black-Clothed Man plot in advance? If I weren't strong enough to not need Faith Power, his trick might really have succeeded."
Now Jiang Li didn't think it was a coincidence that someone spread the Demonic Path to Jiang Yixing. Being able to casually raise Jiang Yixing from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Golden Core stage with a flick of a finger could only be done by someone at least in the late Spirit Transformation stage. At that time, Jiang Yixing's talent was average, and he had no power. Who would bother spreading the Demonic Path to him?
He felt that this was a conspiracy against him, or rather, against the Human Emperor! Changcun Immortal Elder stroked his beard and remained silent, before slowly saying after a while: "Either someone saw your future through the Time Dao, or someone is proficient in Fate Affinity or Aura Observation Technique, and saw that you have a Fate Affinity with the Human Emperor position, or saw that you have Human Emperor aura."
The Time Dao was not unique to the Great Zhou royal family, and perhaps some hidden cultivator had learned the Time Dao.
"Fate Affinity? Aura Observation Technique?" Jiang Li was unfamiliar with these terms.
"It's normal that you don't know. Fate Affinity emphasizes fate. You will eventually get what you are destined for, and things you are not destined for are just bubbles no matter what you do. Aura Observation Technique believes that everyone has an aura above their head, and the color of the aura is different, and the achievements obtained are also different."
"These things are all cultivation methods that have been lost for a long time. Maybe there are remnants of cultivation methods left in some broken temples or Taoist temples, and they were accidentally obtained by someone."
Although he got clues, Jiang Li didn't know where to start looking.
"Why would someone destroy the Human Emperor's faith?" Pure Heart Saintess asked in confusion.
Is it beneficial for the Black-Clothed Man if the Human Emperor becomes weaker? Then who will resist the Extraterrestrial Demons?
This was a very simple truth, but Jiang Li and Changcun Immortal Elder had overlooked it. Now, being unintentionally awakened by Pure Heart Saintess, they realized it.
They looked at each other and confirmed the answer in their hearts.
The Human Emperor becoming weaker is only beneficial to the Extraterrestrial Demons!
There are traitors in the Nine Provinces!
It is even possible that Extraterrestrial Demons have secretly infiltrated the Nine Provinces!
