The Great Yu State Preceptor
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were deeply moved when Lan Ting spoke up for them; this kindness was no less than that of their second parents.
In contrast, the Immortal Fairy seemed to be enjoying the spectacle, and luckily Lu Yang reacted quickly, covering her mouth tightly; otherwise, Lu Yang's fate today would have been uncertain.
"Let's go back together." Yun Zhi left these words and flew to the foot of the mountain. Seeing this, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou said goodbye to Lanting and the other two and quickly followed.
"We'll go first!"
Until we meet again.
"Come visit the Laurel Palace sometime!"
The five said their goodbyes, the ceremony ended, and they all had their own things to do, so it was impossible for them to stay together forever.
When Lu Yang and his companion arrived at the foot of the mountain, Yun Zhi lifted the carriage curtain. "Get in."
Meng Jingzhou looked at Old Ma with a strange expression. Old Ma's coat was usually dull, and his eyelids drooped, giving him the appearance of someone who was just trying to make the most of every day in his old age.
The old horse before them had a gleaming coat and was full of energy; it was a rare and magnificent steed, completely different from its previous appearance.
Yun Zhi held onto the soul chain, the other end of which extended out of the carriage. The Heavenly Calamity Venerable floated outside the carriage like a balloon, looking quite comical.
Seeing that Old Ma had curbed his arrogance as a great demon king and was willing to pull the cart for Yun Zhi, Venerable Tianzai became certain of his guess.
This dragon-horse demon king is the mount of a powerful demigod!
"Don't be so arrogant! The Imperial Preceptor will surely restore the Great Yu!" Venerable Tianzai laughed wildly, his expression fierce.
Yun Zhi frowned, finding the laughter of the Heavenly Calamity Venerable annoying. She casually cast a seal, sealing his five senses and six perceptions, rendering him unable to make a sound or sense any changes in the outside world.
"The Imperial Preceptor? Is the Grand Preceptor of the Great Yu Imperial Preceptor behind this?" After getting into the carriage, Lu Yang searched his mind for information about the Grand Imperial Preceptor.
"What is Imperial Preceptor?" the Immortal Fairy asked. She hadn't even fully grasped the various kinds of knowledge in the present world, let alone the now extinct system of the Imperial Preceptor.
"The Imperial Preceptor is a unique system of the Great Yu Dynasty. You can think of the Great Yu Dynasty as a sect, and the Imperial Preceptor is like the sect's protector, ensuring the sect's long-term existence."
"The system of the Imperial Preceptor can be traced back 200,000 years. At the beginning of the Great Yu Dynasty, it is said that the first Imperial Preceptor was the teacher of the first Emperor of Yu. The first Emperor of Yu established the Great Yu Dynasty with the help of the Imperial Preceptor."
"To overthrow the previous dynasty and unify the Central Continent, the first Emperor Yu was naturally a great hero. Unfortunately, none of his children were worthy of his talents; they lacked both the talent for cultivation and the vision to govern the country."
"At this time, the First Emperor thought of his teacher, so he established the position of Imperial Preceptor and invited his teacher to serve as Imperial Preceptor. This is the origin of the first Imperial Preceptor."
"Historically speaking, the system of Imperial Preceptor did indeed make great contributions after the death of the first Emperor of Yu. The early prosperity of the Great Yu Dynasty was largely due to the Imperial Preceptor' training of the emperors and their effective governance."
"But this would have another consequence: the Imperial Preceptor would become the de facto ruler of the Great Yu Dynasty. When the Imperial Preceptor's power reached its peak, he could even replace the Emperor of Yu with a single word. Although replacing the Emperor of Yu would indeed make the Great Yu Dynasty better, how many emperors would be willing to have an emperor emeritus above them?"
"Moreover, the first Grand Imperial Preceptor devoted himself wholeheartedly to the Great Yu Dynasty, but was the Imperial Preceptor's motivation for the Great Yu Dynasty, or was it for his own selfish desires?"
"In the later stages of the dynasty, the Great Yu appeared to be thriving, but in reality, it harbored hidden murderous intent. The struggle between the Imperial Preceptor and the Emperor of Yu intensified, with assassinations, schemes, honey traps, and the struggle for the throne... one thing led to another, and no one knew what the other was up to."
"At the 'Pingdingshan Conference' 110,000 years ago, conflicts erupted. The Imperial Preceptor's side and the Emperor Yu's side completely broke off relations and launched a great battle at Pingdingshan. At least eight Tribulation Transcendence participated in the battle, and it is unknown how many more Tribulation Transcendence cultivators secretly intervened."
"With both the Imperial Preceptor and Emperor Yu severely wounded and lacking top-tier combat power, the Great Yu Dynasty's rule has plummeted. Conflicts that were previously suppressed have erupted, and the Great Yu Dynasty is entering its final days."
"Do you remember that ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, the Blood Demon Venerable, who was captured by Senior Sister? He was also a former Imperial Preceptor."
"Blood Demon? Oh, I remember now, isn't it because of the strange tales in Buyi Town about a few ancient cultivators at the Body Integration Realm? Yun'er learned from them that they left behind a treasure in Sanli Cave Heaven that could allow one to rise again."
"Later, Yun encountered Tribulation Transcendence cultivator who was sleeping in the Sanli Cave Heaven; he was the Blood Demon Venerable you mentioned."
"Yes, I looked it up later. At the end of the Great Yu Dynasty, the Blood Demon Venerable supported a Yu Emperor and became the Imperial Preceptor himself. Later, for the sake of the Great World War, he chose to fall into a deep sleep. When he woke up, he was captured by Senior Sister."
"I remember the Blood Demon Venerable was only at the early stage of Tribulation Transcendence. Was he really that weak at the end of the Great Yu Dynasty?"
As the leader of the Five Immortals of High Antiquity, the Immortal Fairy thought that every single one of the Tribulation Transcendence Stage cultivators was trash.
However, the fact that he could become the Imperial Preceptor in the early stages of his Tribulation Transcendence reflects how weak the Great Yu Dynasty was at that time.
The Heavenly Calamity Venerable and the Blood Demon Venerable are at the same level, both in the early stage of Tribulation Transcendence. Judging from the Heavenly Calamity Venerable's high regard for the "Imperial Preceptor," the "Imperial Preceptor's" cultivation level must be ridiculously high.
"The late Great Yu Dynasty was in chaos, and the high-level combat power was severely depleted. There were hardly any Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators left. Those stronger than the Blood Demon Venerable were not interested in the position of Imperial Preceptor, which is why it benefited the Blood Demon Venerable."
"For example, the first and second Imperial Preceptors Imperial Preceptor highly skilled. Some speculate that they were at the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence stage, while others speculate that they were at the Half-Immortal level. As for their exact realm, no one knows."
The Immortal Fairy said, "Oh, that's not high either. Does Great Imperial Preceptor? This immortal can reluctantly serve as one."
Lu Yang thought to himself, "If you, sir, become the Grand Imperial Preceptor will probably fall apart before it even reaches a great age."
"Fairy, have you forgotten? I've said before that the position of Imperial Preceptor is unique to the Great Yu Dynasty; the Great Xia Dynasty doesn't have this Imperial Preceptor."
"Tsk, what a pity." The Immortal Fairy lamented the loss of a great opportunity to showcase her talents.
Lu Yang was about to say something when he heard his senior sister say calmly, "We've arrived. Get off the bus."
Lu Yang was surprised. What? They've arrived?
He poked his head out and found that he had arrived at his own mountain gate.
How much time has passed? Has it been an hour?
Meng Jingzhou glared at the old horse with an unfriendly expression. It had taken several days to carry Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to Qingzhou, but on the way back, carrying his senior sister, it had taken less than an hour.
They've gone too far in hiding their talents!
"Old Ma, give me a hint, what level are you at?" Meng Jingzhou whispered, putting his arm around Old Ma's neck.
Old Ma snorted and ignored Meng Jingzhou.
Meng Jingzhou was furious but helpless; he couldn't beat Lao Ma.
"I'm going to Prison Peak to see if I can get any information out of them. You two can do as you please."
The eldest sister carried the Heavenly Calamity Venerable and flew towards Prison Peak.
The second update will be at 10:30 PM.
