Are we really just leaving like this?

"If you don't leave, you'll be forced to do chores. Yuanshi Tianzun has been flying back and forth for so many days looking for someone; he's exhausted and is asking for your help. You have to help him, right?"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan followed alongside the Imperial Shuttle.

He had some intention of joining forces with Yuanshi Tianzun and others to directly wipe out Mount Ling, but with Zhang Xuezhou's escape, Divine Lord Zhenyuan ultimately decided to leave the immortals and gods.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan seemed somewhat puzzled, while the new emperor shrugged and offered an explanation.

He had been unable to command Zhang Xuezhou as a beast of burden in the imperial court for many years, so the Jade Emperor's desire to use Zhang Xuezhou and others as free laborers was nothing short of wishful thinking.

Making Zhang Xuezhou work was unpleasant, but following Zhang Xuezhou to avoid hard work and risks was incredibly comfortable.

As long as you stand on different grounds, you will see things differently. The new emperor exhaled a breath of pent-up frustration that had accumulated over the years, and he felt extremely relieved at that moment.

He gave Divine Lord Zhenyuan a few pointers, and when he learned that Divine Lord Zhenyuan had been doing all the dirty and hard work in the Kunlun Sacred Land Kunlun Sacred Land, including planting trees and collecting corpses, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Young people should be doing more work, shouldn't they?"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan hadn't really thought about many things. He always believed that the capable should do more, and as the youngest male in the Kunlun Sacred Land, he took on all sorts of tasks, big and small. He never imagined that it was precisely because of this 'good-natured' personality that he had so much to do.

"You should tell Dongfang Shuo about this," the new emperor said with a smile.

"Human life is of paramount importance; I must save Nezha," Zhang Xuezhou could only reply.

"Your words have really choked me!"

Just as the Jade Emperor was unable to solve the problem back then, the new emperor is now in the same predicament.

The new emperor felt he understood Zhang Xuezhou's mindset perfectly and knew why Zhang Xuezhou had left, but Zhang Xuezhou simply wouldn't admit it, leaving him helpless.

"See? I told you Dongfang Shuo wasn't like that. He was just preoccupied with saving people. If this hadn't happened, he would have gone to West Ox Hezhou long ago!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan certainly didn't want to admit that he had been taken advantage of in the past. After repeated reflection, he felt that he and the new emperor were not on the same path.

After repeated exchanges among the three, the new emperor discovered that he had actually been ostracized.

He analyzed and judged Zhang Xuezhou from the perspective of someone in a high position, and his conclusions perfectly matched the behavior and mentality of the Jade Emperor and others. The new emperor felt that he was absolutely right in his judgment, but he discovered that Divine Lord Zhenyuan had never been in a high position before and did not have this kind of understanding at all.

"We made the arrangement more than half a month ago, and I don't know if Yang Jian has handled it properly," said Divine Lord Zhenyuan.

"We can go check out the situation at Mount Milu first!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded.

His main purpose in going to Xiniu Hezhou was to seek Laojun's "Shuqing Shen" (art to purify the body) and see if he could make Nezha a variable to break the deadlock in the struggle between Houtu and Hongjun.

Even if Houtu and Hongjun don't completely identify Nezha's soul as Zhang Xuezhou, even if they are only confused for a moment, this might become an advantage for him.

"Mount Milu is a key location for the Western Sect to hide their treasures, and perhaps even the Immortality Elixir," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Can we take this Immortality Elixir?" the new emperor asked doubtfully.

"If there's nothing wrong with it, you can eat it!"

Zhang Xuezhou responded without turning his head, and the new emperor felt his previously relieved mood begin to plummet again.

Zhang Xuezhou's response was always this quick. If the emperor couldn't quite grasp it, he would nod in agreement. But now he knew very well that Zhang Xuezhou's answer was useless; it seemed to answer the question but in reality, it offered no guarantee.

Of course, the new emperor felt it would be very difficult to get Zhang Xuezhou to come up with a better response.

"If you have a problem, you can't eat it!"

When Divine Lord Zhenyuan intervened, the new emperor felt that the topic could no longer be discussed.

Fortunately, as they continued their rambling, nonsensical conversation, they got closer and closer to their destination.

When there was no need to adhere to the rules and avoid standing out, Zhang Xuezhou greatly increased the speed of the Imperial Shuttle, and Divine Lord Zhenyuan's flying speed was also not bad. The new emperor saw a secret place in the sky.

"These high-altitude secret locations are constantly changing location, how did you find this place?"

As the new emperor gazed into the distance, his fingers resting on the longsword at his waist, he couldn't help but wonder for the true answer.

"There's a special marker here; I can find this place using that marker!"

As long as the 'white's favor mark is on Mount Milu, Zhang Xuezhou will not get lost in this secret place, even if the shuttle array leading to the secret place of Mount Milu is dismantled.

He glanced at Divine Lord Zhenyuan Divine Lord Zhenyuan had already unleashed his sleeves as he stomped through the wind and waves, slamming them down heavily at the entrance to the secret realm of Milu Mountain.

"Where are Jieyin and Zhunti is here; it's your turn to go out and greet the guests!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan lost the Blood Transformation Box, but gained a new emperor skilled in swordsmanship by his side.

This is a top-tier swordsman capable of breaking through the demonic body of an emperor. He can easily go toe-to-toe with the Sect Master Jieyin. Divine Lord Zhenyuan is very satisfied with their partnership.

If the Zhunti Leader's injuries had not yet healed, he could still join forces with the new emperor after defeating his opponent with a few punches and kicks, thus coordinating a double Sect Master Jieyin.

"What kind of junk is piled up at the entrance!"

Once you've ventured into the secret realm of Mount Milu, you'll be familiar with the mechanisms at the entrance and won't be bothered by the formations within the secret realm.

With a flick of his sleeve, Divine Lord Zhenyuan snapped a fire-breathing mechanism in half amidst the roaring winds and waves.

As the swordsmen unleashed their attacks, the violent destruction instantly filled the entrance to the secret realm, drawing the powerful cultivators within to quickly approach.

"The ones attacking the mountain gate are here!"

"Bring out the people from the Immortal Court!"

"He's not from the Immortal Court; he's that powerful cultivator who was expelled by the sect leader last time!"

"Then our methods of restraint will be useless against him!"

Several familiar voices rang out, indicating that someone intended to threaten the cultivators imprisoned in the Immortal Court, but they were quickly reminded by a cultivator who recognized Divine Lord Zhenyuan's identity.

When the means of control cease to work, even beheading the cultivators of the Immortal Court won't make Divine Lord Zhenyuan hesitate to act.

"You vicious Daoist, take this!"

When Divine Lord Zhenyuan dismantled the twelve fire mechanisms one after another, a cultivator finally couldn't hold back any longer.

A samaya-shaped flame appeared, and a cultivator carrying a ten-foot-long banner swept across.

"Be careful, Buddha Baozhuang! He held his own against the sect leader; his strength is formidable!"

Vishnu's warning was still ringing in his ears when the Buddha of the Precious Banner, who was sweeping towards him with a banner and a blazing fire, was pulled and pushed by Divine Lord Zhenyuan and thrown out of the secret place of Mount Miluo, banner and all.

"Prajnaparamita, the wise awaken to this..."

The Buddha, seemingly unaware that the jeweled banner had been thrown, was still gathering his strength to prepare an attack. Only when the gust of wind caused him to lose his footing did he let out a shout and frantically rush back on the clouds.

Although he survived, the Buddha Ratnavali was badly injured by the wind and even lost the banner he was holding.

"I'm going to Zhunti. If you want to act quickly, then hurry up. But I'm warning you, this is the third time. I held back the first time, and I'll hold back the second time too, but I will definitely kill the third one!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan stretched out his hand towards the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and disciples in the secret place, and then pointed to the Treasure Banner Tathagata Buddha floating in the distance, whom no one dared to approach.

His words left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment, exchanging glances and exchanging pleasantries, and for a moment no one dared to rush forward.

"Wonderful!"

The new emperor had previously thought that Divine Lord Zhenyuan was pedantic, but when Divine Lord Zhenyuan made his move, he sensed that the other party's character had changed instantly.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan has flaws in personnel matters, but his combat methods are impeccable.

There were more than ten powerful cultivators in the secret realm. After Divine Lord Zhenyuan revealed his skills and threatened them, none of them dared to make a move.

Being the second to make a move is one thing, but being the third might mean getting killed.

In a life-or-death moment, people are destined to feel more aversion to inequality than fear of scarcity.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan treated them differently, and none of the powerful cultivators in the secret realm dared to attack together.
