Heavenly Court's Envoy Arrives in the Capital City
Li Hao frowned slightly, somewhat surprised.
Although he had long anticipated that the Heavenly Court would not allow the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader to develop recklessly, he did not expect the Heavenly Court to take action so quickly.
Zixuan: "What?! You've been targeted by the Heavenly Court!"
As a legitimate Nuwa Descendant, Zixuan naturally had no goodwill towards the Heavenly Court.
It can be said that the Nuwa Descendant and the Heavenly Court were inherently irreconcilable enemies.
Upon suddenly hearing that the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader was being targeted by the Heavenly Court, Zixuan was immediately startled.
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader pondered for a moment, then recounted the events of the evening in the group chat.
After hearing the explanation from the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.
It's not that the Heavenly Court Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader; if it weren't for the little paper doll tipping him off, the Moon Worshipper Leader might be fighting with the Heavenly Court tomorrow.
Li Xunhuan: "No, there's a problem."
Since this little paper figure knows so much about the Great Song Dynasty delegation and even the descent of the Heavenly Court Gods, the identity of its master is certainly worth considering.
In my personal opinion, the most likely candidates are high-ranking members of the Great Song's diplomatic mission or high-ranking officials of the Great Song Dynasty, and very high-ranking officials at that, otherwise they would not have been able to come into contact with such matters.
Why would someone like that go out of their way to deliver a message to the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader? Aren't they afraid of being discovered by the Heavenly Court and thus being punished by Heavenly Court?
Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "It is indeed a bit strange. This little paper figure appeared out of nowhere, and we don't know who its owner is. In my opinion, the sect leader should be careful."
Angel Yan: "Judging from the current information, the news that a celestial being from Heavenly Court has descended to earth should be true."
Since the other party sent such a message, it couldn't have been without any basis. The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader only needs to carefully investigate the Great Song delegation to find out the truth of the message.
Our most pressing concern right now is the Heavenly Court's intentions and why they've suddenly set their sights on the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader. If we can't figure this out, even if the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader heeds their advice and immediately flees from Nanzhao, he'll likely be forced to hide in the shadows in the future.
Does the cult leader have any thoughts on this?
"The Heavenly Court must have a reason for going to such lengths to capture you."
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader could only manage a wry smile.
He had no idea what was wrong with the Heavenly Court. If it weren't for the little paper figure's sudden reminder, the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader wouldn't have even noticed what was happening with the Heavenly Court Court's gods.
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, "I have investigated the Great Song delegation, and there are indeed two unusual auras among them, which should be the celestial beings from the Heavenly Court."
Furthermore, I also discovered a considerable number of cultivators within the Great Song delegation, the strongest of whom already possessed the cultivation level of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm."
Everyone was somewhat shocked upon hearing this.
Therefore, the paper doll's warning may not be false.
Otherwise, if it were just a simple delegation, why hide so many experts among them?
only.
Faced with the question posed by the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, everyone was momentarily at a loss.
Because they had absolutely no idea how the Heavenly Court had targeted the Heavenly Court Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, or why the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader was so determined to kill him.
Zixuan: "I do have some guesses about why Moon Worshipper has been targeted by the Heavenly Court."
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader's eyes brightened slightly, and he said, "Please enlighten me, Miss Zixuan."
Zixuan: "You have already seen the history of our world. Although my understanding of the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader's world is not very deep, judging from the development of the two worlds, the past histories are basically quite similar."
Everyone nodded slightly, indicating that they understood.
They had already read the story of the Legend of Sword of Immortals, so they naturally knew the history of Zixuan's world.
Zixuan: "In ancient times, due to the enslavement of the human race by the Divine Race, as well as the cruelty and corruption of the Divine Race, the human race and the Divine Race once fought an earth-shattering decisive battle."
Many people believe that the Heavenly Court ultimately chose to retreat because the human race won the war, but in fact, the opposite is true.
In the ancient war between humans and gods, the human race was defeated, utterly annihilated.
The reason why the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi withdrew his troops was not because he was afraid of the human race, nor because the Heavenly Court was powerless to resist them. Rather, it was because he had already achieved his goal: weakening the human race and the opposition among the Divine Race.
Therefore, the Heavenly Emperor does not need to continue attacking the human race. He needs a weak human race to continue serving the Divine Race, so as to demonstrate the Divine Race' authority over the six realms and to better enjoy the dignity of the gods. He also needs a weak human race to serve as the defense line between the Heavenly Realm and other worlds.
As for the person who sent the message to the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, I suspect they might be related to immortals who hid in the Immortal Realm in ancient times. Most of them were powerful mortals who did not obey the Heavenly Court's rule and therefore did not want to ascend.
These people have no goodwill towards the Heavenly Court, so it's normal for Heavenly Court to secretly sabotage it.
Everyone gasped in surprise.
It turns out that the ancient war between humans and gods had such a secret.
Heavenly Emperor Fuxi!
This guy truly lives up to his reputation as one of the original Three Ancient Gods; he managed to manipulate everyone with ease.
Li Xunhuan: "What Miss Zixuan means is that the Heavenly Court has always controlled the human world."
The various reforms implemented by the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader in Nanzhao may have attracted the attention of the Heavenly Court. This is why the Heavenly Court was so eager to deal with the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, and even secretly sent celestial beings down to earth.
Zixuan: "That's right, the Heavenly Court needs a weak human race, not a powerful one."
The reform plan of the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader is too good, and its impact on Nanzhao is too obvious. Any god in the Heavenly Court who is not a fool can see the significance of the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader's reform for the human race.
They will not allow such a powerful figure to emerge among the human race, nor will they allow the human race to become stronger as a result. This is not in the interest of the Heavenly Court, much less in the interest of the Heavenly Emperor."
Gu Santong: "My goodness, after hearing what you're saying, I feel like that Fei Peng didn't die unjustly. This man was hailed as the number one general in Heavenly Court, and was even capable of contending with the strongest demon Chonglou. He also had countless great achievements in Heavenly Court."
Such arrogant and fierce soldiers are bound to overshadow their ruler.
Moreover, Fei Peng frequently disrespects the Heavenly Emperor, openly and secretly defying his orders. No wonder the Heavenly Emperor wants to kill him; if such a threat isn't eliminated sooner or later, wouldn't he eventually threaten the Heavenly Emperor's position?
Everyone was taken aback for a moment, but after thinking about it, they felt that what Gu Santong said wasn't entirely unreasonable.
Throughout history, how many those whose achievements overshadowed their rulers have met a good end?
Zixuan: "Leaving aside Fei Peng's matter for now, the matter of the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, if there are no unexpected events, is because the Heavenly Court felt threatened, which is why they couldn't wait to get rid of Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader."
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader frowned deeply, remaining silent for a long time.
This answer was quite unexpected.
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader originally thought that the Heavenly Court had noticed something unusual about Nuwa Descendant, or that it had sensed a change in its own Destiny, which was why it wanted to take action against him.
He never imagined that the Heavenly Court wanted to get rid of him because of his reforms to the human world.
Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "O( ̄ヘ ̄o#) Hmph, the Heavenly Court is so wicked, especially that Heavenly Emperor, he's disgusting. Moon Worshipper, beat those gods to death and kick over that damned Heavenly Court!"
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Although he had mastered great divine skills, he was not arrogant enough to think he could easily defeat the entire world. Although those two Heavenly Court Gods were not strong, they still had the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage.
With the current strength of the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader at the Refinement Void Realm, he naturally has no fear of the two Celestial Gods.
He may not be afraid of the two gods, but he cannot help but worry about the vast Heavenly Court behind them.
That was a terrifying existence that had dominated the Six Realms for countless years. To say that the Heavenly Court had no truly peerless experts, the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader really didn't believe it. Especially since the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi was one of the three ancient gods born in the early days of creation, his cultivation and strength must be incredibly terrifying.
As Gu Santong said, the Heavenly Emperor might be wary of Fei Peng.
But if the Heavenly Emperor didn't possess the power to suppress Fei Peng and the power to prevent the Demon Chonglou from acting rashly, how could he have secured his position as the supreme ruler of the Six Realms?
Is it really necessary to base everything on so-called bloodline? Isn't that just nonsense?
Therefore, the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader was well aware that his true enemies were not just two mere celestial beings, but the terrifying Heavenly Court behind them, and the unpredictable Heavenly Emperor Fuxi.
Even so, the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader showed no intention of backing down.
Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "Master, what do you plan to do now?"
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader, "Escape is impossible. I will not give up my foundation in Nanzhao, nor will I give up my reforms for the human race. 'If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening.' If I abandon my ideals, what difference is there between living and dying?"
However, the Heavenly Court's problems are very complicated, and for now I can only deal with the Great Song delegation's affairs tomorrow. As for the future, we'll talk about it later."
Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "What a pity, Big Brother Group Leader just said yesterday that he wouldn't easily interfere in our affairs. Otherwise, if Brother Moon Worshipper had invited Big Brother Group Leader over, ╭(╯^╰)╮ Hmph, who cares about the Heavenly Court or the Heavenly Emperor, or the Three Ancient Gods Fuxi, Big Brother Group Leader could slap him so hard he'd shit himself."
Li Hao was both amused and exasperated.
Little imp, you're so confident in the Big Brother Group Leader!
No matter what, Fuxi is one of the Three Ancient Gods in the world of Chinese Sword of Immortals, transformed from a wisp of the essence of Pangu, the god who created the world.
Although the combat power in the world of Sword of Immortals isn't particularly high, it's not low either.
Based on Li Hao's estimation, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi certainly possessed the cultivation level of the Dao Realm, but whether he could reach the standard of the Immortal Realm in Heavens and Myriad Worlds was another matter.
Even so, Li Hao had no intention of interfering.
At least until the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader is in Extremis, Li Hao will not easily interfere in the group members' affairs. He needs the Chat Group members to grow as much as possible, instead of being weaklings who shout "666" under his protection.
Although the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader's current predicament is troublesome, it's not yet a Extremis, is it?
Moreover, Li Hao believed that with the trump cards he had left for Zhao Ling'er, although he dared not say that she could conquer the heavens and become the supreme ruler, she should be able to protect herself without any problem.
Omniscient Li: "I will no longer easily interfere in your affairs. As for the problem Moon Worshipper is currently facing, it is not without a solution."
Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow.
Moon Worshipper could keep an eye out and see if he can find the person who tipped you off. Since this person notified you to escape, they must already be dissatisfied with the Heavenly Court. If you can find them, perhaps you can use their position to your advantage."
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader nodded slightly, then fell into deep thought.
He has many things to consider.
For example, how should we deal with the Great Song delegation tomorrow, how should we deal with the Witch King who secretly betrayed us, and how should we find the mysterious person who helped us?
Time always flies.
The following day, the Great Song Dynasty delegation, accompanied by a grand procession, slowly entered the capital of Nanzhao.
