"Fantastic! The successor we've been waiting for has finally arrived! Esteemed Teacher, you are no longer a court sorcerer. And you... Liu Bang, is it? I'm entrusting the Great Qin to you. I'm off to seek immortality!"

With Bai Ming in his left hand and Liu Bang in his right, the First Emperor's expression was one of immense anticipation. "And the valiant Fan Kuai, come with us."

Is... is this the First Emperor?

Zhang Liang found this the hardest to accept.

This tyrant who let the world fall into chaos, who destroyed the six states... he looked nothing like a solemn ruler? What was the point of his rebellion against Qin then?

After dealing with Huhai's twenty-one princes, Gongzi Gao walked up to Zhang Liang and clapped him on the shoulder. "Master once said that people live to find peace. I believe Tai Xuan's rebellion was simply to avenge his family, wasn't it?"

Zhang Liang held the position of Tai Xuan Boy in the Daoist sect, which was why Gongzi Gao, as one of the Three Seven Boys, addressed him not as Zifang, but as Tai Xuan.

"Is... is that so?"

Zhang Liang wasn't sure.

[While Zhang Liang was caught in self-doubt, Liu Bang was also drowning in his own uncertainty. Could it be that the imperial throne was sealing something extraordinary? Otherwise, why wouldn't the First Emperor want to continue being emperor?]

"Liu Bang, let me tell you, I've already prepared a suitable imperial robe for you. Come, try it on and see if it fits."

The First Emperor's eager demeanor made Liu Bang very uneasy. Seeing Liu Bang's silence, the First Emperor spoke again, "Have you decided on the dynasty's name? Oh, and even if I'm abdicating to you like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, you can't make up stories about me in the history books. And also, even though you're the new emperor, this matter of the family tree..."

[The First Emperor rambled on with Liu Bang, making Liu Bang feel as if he were dreaming. He had never expected the First Emperor to have everything so perfectly prepared for him.]

[Meanwhile, you were in the Great Qin prison, having fun at Zhao Gao's expense.]

"Minister of the Central Secretariat, it's been over a year. You've become much thinner."

Zhao Gao, looking weathered and ancient in the prison, glanced at Bai Ming outside and said, "Xiang Yu—no, should I call you Xiang Yu or Bai Ming?"

"Both are my names," Bai Ming sighed. "You're a rotten scoundrel. I've prepared something for you, and I hope you'll like it."

Zhao Gao remained silent, watching Bai Ming. His face showed no emotion until Bai Ming produced the White Dragon's Root, at which point a look of terror appeared on Zhao Gao's face.

[Talent activated under the name "Brando".]

"Hee hee hee, Zhao Gao!" Bai Ming's laughter was perverse. "When you showed me hostility before, I took note. So, no matter what, I can't forget you. I've specifically found a few men who are fond of the same sex, and I hope you'll enjoy my hospitality."

"You can't do this! You can't do this!"

Zhao Gao shouted in terror. "You scoundrel, I won't let you go even if I become a vengeful spirit! How many people have you done this to?!"

"Heh—a vengeful spirit?" Bai Ming sneered. "If you become a vengeful spirit, I welcome you to find me. As for how many people I've done this to, do you remember how many biscuits you've eaten?"

[Four highly skilled men with a penchant for the same sex doted on Zhao Gao for a year. In 213 BCE, unable to bear the humiliation any longer, he was penetrated by the White Dragon's Root and stabbed to death.]

[Zhao Gao died, and Huhai was killed by his twenty-one brothers. During this time, you accompanied the First Emperor to Kunlun Mountain. The First Emperor, as he wished, became an immortal and even met the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. The Great Han was also established many years earlier.]

[However, did history follow its normal course from a subtle angle?]

Chapter Ninety-Nine: Old Bai Causes Trouble in the Underworld

[After Liu Bang became emperor, he did not alienate you or Fan Kuai. However, the conflict between Liu Bang and Lü Zhi began to surface at this time.]

[Lü Zhi had always been an ambitious woman—this was true whether she had suffered hardship with Liu Bang or not. Therefore, after Liu Bang successfully became emperor, this woman became restless.]

[After Liu Bang ascended the throne, he clearly felt Lü Zhi's ambition. This woman wanted to usurp the Han, and a sense of displeasure spread through Liu Bang's heart.]

[Due to Lü Zhi's ambitious behavior, Liu Bang began to detest her, along with their infant son, Liu Ying, who was only one year old.]

[Thus, Liu Bang unleashed his astonishing wisdom and decided to postpone appointing a crown prince, just like the First Emperor. He also thought that Fan Kuai was loose-lipped, so Liu Bang did not inform him of this matter, only telling you and asking for your opinion.]

[In Liu Bang's view, Lü Changxu was a concubine to you, and Lü Xu was a wife to Fan Kuai. Consulting you was better than consulting the garrulous Fan Kuai.]

[You told Liu Bang that there was no rush for this matter, but that you and Fan Kuai would always stand by his side. For now, the priority should be to quell the remaining rebel forces. Liu Bang readily agreed.]

[In 212 BCE, the world was completely pacified, ten years earlier than Liu Bang's historical ascension to the throne.]

[Afterward, Liu Bang began to reward those who had contributed. You told Liu Bang that you didn't want to be made a king or be granted land, and certainly not any official positions. A few property deeds would suffice. Liu Bang disagreed, but after your repeated requests, he compromised: he would grant you the title of king and land, but no official position. You agreed.]

[Liu Bang enfeoffed you as the King of Chu, allowing you to enter the palace freely, skip court sessions, or attend court with your sword and shoes on, and not bow to the emperor. Fan Kuai was also exempted from bowing to the emperor, but he dared not allow Fan Kuai to attend court with his sword and shoes on, as that brute might very well hack the ministers to death on the spot.]

[In the distribution of rewards, you, Fan Kuai, Lu Wan, Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Cao Can were considered first-class contributors, as they were the founding members of the Great Han group. However, since neither you nor Zhang Liang were interested in court affairs, you chose to remain on the sidelines.]

[Before you departed, you advised Liu Bang that all kings with different surnames should be like you; not all of their descendants would be as united and loyal as these few. Liu Bang happily agreed.]

[With the world newly pacified, Liu Bang retained most of the military officials and a small portion of the civil officials from the Qin Dynasty. However, this no longer concerned you. You eloped with Consort Yu and Lü Changxu, only communicating with Liu Bang every now and then.]

[Xu Fu returned from her voyage, her face gaunt. When she saw you again, she no longer had her former vitality.]

"Chief, I'm back."

Xu Fu said weakly, while Lü Changxu silently poured tea beside her. Bai Ming looked at the exhausted Xu Fu and said, "You're ill."

"Yes."

Xu Fu, who was devoted to finding the elixir of immortality and killing the immortal, said weakly, "But... I haven't failed my mission. I went to Fusang, and then I ran back."

Bai Ming said calmly, "You should rest."

"I know..." Xu Fu glanced at Lü Changxu beside her and said, "Lord Yu..."

Bai Ming replied, "I know what you want to say. Time hasn't synchronized yet. Her suffering, in a way, is self-inflicted—there's no shortage of immortal beings on this land, she just didn't seek them out."

"...Just like me."

"No, you're just outwardly gloomy. Consort Yu is nowhere near as eloquent as you," Bai Ming quipped. "Go get some rest. Or would you prefer to rest at my place?"

Xu Fu heard this, his face flushed, and he quickly refused, "No, no, no! It's absolutely unnecessary!"

[Xu Fu went to rest]

[Logically speaking, Xu Fu is supposed to die in two years, so you are struggling with whether or not to disrupt the cycle of life and death, to let this girl who calls herself Consort Yu's maid but mostly stays by your side when you're around, survive.]

[You decided to disrupt the course of history. After all, it's not the first time you've interfered. It's just a matter of life and death for one or a few people.]

[After saying a few words to Consort Yu, you left home and headed for Mount Tai.]

[You went to find the deities who control life and death, requesting them to change the lifespans of a few people, but they said it was very difficult. As the saying goes, "greed knows no bounds," and the benefits they demanded were far greater than the value of what you wanted to achieve.]

[Talent "Sha Po Lang" activated]

[Talent activated under the name "Brandu"]

[You thought that if it was difficult, you wouldn't do it. However, your objective still needed to be achieved, so you chose to fight.]

[You fought Bingling Gong, Righteous God of Three Mountains, and Huang Tianhua, Crown Prince of Mount Tai, and you won.]

[You fought Huang Feihu, the Great Emperor of Mount Tai, and you won.]

[You fought the Azure Emperor Taihao, you were covered in wounds, but you won.]

[You fought Jin Hongshi, your injuries worsened, but you won.]

[You rested briefly, covered in wounds.]

[You fought Yan Emperor, the Great Emperor of Fengdu Underworld, your injuries worsened, but you were fearless.]

[After a short rest, you changed Xu Fu's lifespan. As for Lu Changxu, although she was your concubine, she had no intention of seeking immortality. This was confirmed when you and Consort Yu showed her another side of the world. However, a day as husband and wife creates a hundred days of gratitude. You arranged for her future lives in the cycle of reincarnation, but some things still needed to be arranged, so you had to go to heaven.]

[After a brief rest, you ascended from the underworld to the heavenly court. The gods in the heavenly court heard that you had caused chaos in the underworld and believed you were here with ill intentions.]

[Taigong Wang tried to stop you, but you set his clothes on fire, took his God-Slaying Whip, and went to heaven on your own. You entered from the South Heaven Gate.]

[Taigong Wang knew you were from the future and that you were his junior brother, so he ultimately did nothing.]

[You were blocked by the seventy-two Earthly Fiends and thirty-six Heavenly Spirits of the Dou Shuai Department, a total of one hundred and eight Star Lords, and the Giant Spirit God. You scattered them with the God-Slaying Whip in your left hand and the Jade Purity Supreme Brick in your right.]

[Your injuries worsened.]

[You found Star of Heavenly Joy, Zishou. After explaining what you needed to do, Zishou agreed, and you left.]

[Heavenly soldiers and generals came to apprehend you, but they were again severely wounded by you and scattered. You fought your way out. The Heavenly Emperor did not intend to intervene, partly because of your identity and partly because the gods were indeed too lax, so it was a good opportunity for them to train.]

[Seeing that the Heavenly Court had many soldiers and generals, you went straight to Daluo Heaven, the Pure Clarity Immortal Realm. As you cultivated in alchemy, artifacts, and combat techniques, you were naturally a disciple of Lord Lao.]

[In fact, the Three Pure Ones were all your masters, but you mainly studied under the Jade Purity Primordial Heavenly Lord.]

[You stormed into the Pure Clarity Immortal Realm. Grand Master Xuandu of the Five Manifestations Spiritual View was greatly surprised to see you. However, you said nothing, only sweeping away all the pills refined by this unlucky senior brother and then inhaling the entire batch of pills from Grand Master Xuandu's furnace, followed by sweeping away all the pills Lord Lao had prepared and set aside. Grand Master Xuandu was dumbfounded. A slight calculation revealed that it was his future junior brother who had caused trouble in the underworld and the heavenly court in the past and was now here to freeload.]

"Senior Brother Xuandu, tell Master that I love him!"

Chapter 100: The Four Emperors and Five Elders, one and all, enjoy watching the fun.

[You went straight to the Jade Pool, took some Jade Pool water, then went straight to the Imperial Horse Stable and abducted a heavenly horse, then went straight to the Peach Garden and took a few peaches, and finally went straight to the Hall of Universal Brightness.]

[Then, under the calm gaze of the Greatly Honored One of Heaven, you swept away more than half of the celestial wine and jade liquid, and then shouted, "Your subordinate thanks the Greatly Honored One of Heaven for the wine and peaches," before making a swift escape.]

[The Greatly Honored One of Heaven smiled and said nothing. Afterwards, with a darkened expression, he began to discipline the righteous gods who usually slacked off and were beaten to a pulp by a junior like you when they actually had to exert themselves.]

[As you were preparing to leave, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King led his troops to apprehend you and immediately unleashed the Exquisite Pagoda. You immediately summoned the system and swept away the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's treasure pagoda. The Central Altar Marshal, seeing that the pagoda was gone, immediately shouted and pursued the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King with his spear at the South Heaven Gate.]

[The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King immediately became the "Pagoda-Shedding Heavenly King who perishes."]

[You fled back to the mortal world and then headed straight for the capital of the Han Dynasty.]

[Talent "The Joy-Seeker from Afar" activated]

"Big Brother! Third Brother!"

Liu Bang was holding court when Bai Ming, riding on clouds, rushed back from outside. "Open your mouths, good stuff."

Liu Bang and Fan Kuai immediately opened their mouths, and each received a golden pill. Liu Bang immediately felt as if he had returned to his youth in his twenties. Liu Bang knew that Bai Ming was an immortal, so he must have brought something good for him.

"Second Brother, this thing..."

"Don't ask. I got it (stole) from my senior brother. The situation is extremely urgent, so listen to me."

Bai Ming said hurriedly, "Big Brother, you will abdicate seventeen years from now and go to West Kunlun with Third Brother to live forever. Your help will be needed in the future."

[With that, you disappeared. Many new officials who were unaware of your abilities were greatly surprised, while the old officials were already accustomed to it. Liu Bang noted the time and, returning to his youthful vigor, began a grand reform of the court.]

[The first to be removed was Lü Zhi.]

[Lü Zhi had not been sitting on the Empress's throne for long before Liu Bang deposed her as Empress. The Lü family's maternal relatives also began to be suppressed by Liu Bang. Fan Kuai, considering that his wife was also from the Lü family, decided to retire gracefully. Who would have thought that after the court session, Liu Bang would directly kick Fan Kuai in the backside!]

[Meanwhile, Fusu was still happily chasing the Xiongnu in the north with Meng Tian. After driving the Xiongnu far away, he returned to the Central Plains with Meng Tian and the army. He then handed over the army to Liu Bang and took Meng Tian to West Kunlun to find a blessed land and a cave dwelling to further his cultivation.]

[You sped back home and then lay sprawled on the ground, unmoving.]

"Chief, you are..."

Xu Fu, with a gloomy expression, looked at Bai Ming, who had burst in like a whirlwind and was now lying on the ground, with a subtle expression. When Xu Fu noticed the multiple wounds and severe internal injuries on your body, he became frightened. "Lord Yu! Lord Yu! The Chief is dying! Waaah!"

Just as Xu Fu finished shouting, Bai Ming yanked him to the ground, and they lay together. "Dying my ass! I'm exhausted. I'm going to slack off now."

The overall process was to go to the underworld to change lifespans, then go to the heavenly court to add a name to the celestial registry, and at the same time arrange for Lu Changxu's future family circumstances for several lifetimes, and also proactively settle the mess with the Greatly Honored One of Heaven and help him discipline those lazy gods who contributed little.

Let Xu Fu try her best first. If she can't succeed, she'll just take a shortcut and join the ranks of the immortals.

Bai Ming let out a sigh of relief, "From today onwards, whether you're alive or dead, you belong to me."

Xu Fu's mind went blank, "Huh... Huh?!"

Just as Xu Fu was about to say something else, Consort Yu finally walked out of the room. She looked calmly at Bai Ming lying on the ground, then sighed after a moment. Right at that moment, the door to Bai Ming's house was knocked on again.

"Hey, hey~ I'm coming in directly."

A girl with squinting eyes and a bob haircut looked at Bai Ming lying on the ground and teased him, "Oh my, oh my, you look so disheveled. Can you return the God-Slaying Whip to me now? You modifying history so carelessly is really quite troublesome. You know that beasts can be born even in lostbelts. If you accidentally create any beast candidates, it'll be a big problem."

"Then you can work overtime."

Bai Ming sat up from the ground with Xu Fu's help and threw the God-Slaying Whip directly to Taigong Wang. Taigong Wang caught the God-Slaying Whip and said cheerfully, "You took so many elixirs, aren't you planning to eat them? Are you saving them to make more disciples? Or should I reluctantly—"

Bai Ming then put on the same squinting-eyed expression, and the two squinting-eyed people looked at each other and smiled.

Consort Yu watched from the side, completely unable to understand what these two were doing.

Taigong Wang sighed and said, "Alright, I was just joking, Senior Brother. I'm leaving now, leaving now. Enjoy your final moments. Among all the fellow disciples, you're the only lunatic."

Then, Taigong Wang shook his head and left.

Consort Yu finally spoke, "So what were you guys doing?"

"Well... we were discussing your future."

Bai Ming sat up and said, "Yu, I've always been worried about your future."

Consort Yu felt that Bai Ming's words were a bit off, giving her the feeling that he was making final arrangements.

[The Azure Emperor is not that easy to defeat. After fighting the Azure Emperor, you'll know that your current simulation is about to end. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been rushing around so frantically. When you devoured Grand Master Xuandu's entire batch of elixirs but your injuries didn't improve, you'll know the Azure Emperor dealt you a heavy blow.]

[But you didn't lose out either, you stole his Innate Eight Trigrams.]
