Chapter 1745: Representatives
“Master, White Emperor, please have a chat in the hall,” Si Wuya said as he extended his hand and made an inviting gesture.
Everyone walked into the hall.
After taking a seat, Bai Zhaoju looked around in admiration. Although it was not as glorious as the Great Void, it was beautiful in a down-to-earth manner. Most importantly, this was the Unholy One’s cultivation ground. If the Unholy One was willing, Golden Court Mountain could be the second Grand Mystic Mountain.
Liu Wenjun, Princess Yong Ning, walked into the hall with a pot of tea and cups before she poured tea for everyone.
Jiang Aijian said with a sigh, “My sister is a Princess of Great Yan, and yet, she’s reduced to being someone’s maidservant. How pitiful, how pitiful…”
Bai Zhaoju did not understand Jiang Aijian’s meaning, and it was his first time meeting Liu Wenjun. He said, “You don’t need to remind me again and again. Many things have already been decided. I know that if Qi Sheng wanted to stay in the Lost Kingdom, he wouldn’t have returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
Jiang Aijian did not explain himself and only said with a smile, “Of course.”
Liu Wenjun was embarra.s.sed again. After pouring the tea, she bowed and said, “Please enjoy the tea.”
Then, Liu Wenjun hurried away again.
Even Lu Zhou felt that Liu Wenjun was a good woman. It must be known that on Earth, there were countless bachelors who could not find a woman to marry. Even if they could marry, they still had to consider if they had enough money to do so.
After a while, Lu Zhou said, “Now that three Pillars of Destruction have collapsed, apart from Dunzang’s pillar that corresponds with Shang Zhang Hall, the other two halls must have begun to fight. In your opinion, what should we do if the Great Void invades the nine lotus domains?”
Although Lu Zhou was very powerful, it was still extremely difficult to deal with so many cultivators. Moreover, these cultivators were not very weak.
There would be no fear of invasion if the Great Void did not collapse. Alas, the Great Void was destined to collapse. To survive, the people from the Great Void could only invade the nine lotus domains. No matter from which angle Lu Zhou looked at it, the invasion was inevitable.
Si Wuya said with a smile, “Based on my current deduction, it won’t be long before the Great Void starts to invade the nine lotus domains. If that’s the case, then we should comply with their wishes.”
“Comply with their wishes?” Bai Zhaoju was puzzled. He a.s.sumed Si Wuya would want to unite everyone, join forces, and stand against the Great Void.
Si Wuya said, “Yes, comply with their wishes…”
“Reason?” Lu Zhou asked.
“If war breaks out, countless people will die. Even if we win, we’ll have to pay a huge price. So, we’ll compromise,” Si Wuya said, “Master’s prestige is quite high in the golden lotus domain. Everyone respects you and reveres you like a G.o.d. On behalf of Great Yan, you can invite the cultivators to live in the nine lotus domains. Although the nine lotus domains aren’t as vast as the Great Void, they’re more than enough to accommodate the entire cultivation world.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhou’s heart moved. ‘Isn’t this the same as taking in refugees?’
If Lu Zhou did not know better, he would have thought Si Wuya was a transmigrator as well.
Lu Zhou said, “The Great Void has always been arrogant and thought highly of themselves. Do you think they’ll agree so easily?”
“We can find representatives from each of the nine lotus domains. Master, you’ll be in charge. The White Emperor, the Green Emperor, the Scarlet Emperor, and the Black Emperor can be the witnesses. We’ll make an agreement with the ten halls. Apart from Shang Zhang Hall, there are no divine emperors in the other halls. They won’t be arrogant when faced with the Four Emperors of the Lost Lands. The Scarlet Emperor and the Black Emperor’s stances aren’t clear, but it doesn’t prevent us from making use of their reputation. When they find out, what’s done is done. They won’t be able to do anything,” Si Wuya said.
Bai Zhaoju said, “Wonderful!”
Jiang Aijian also did not expect Si Wuya to come up with such a method. It was truly not a bad method.
“What about the Sacred Temple?” Lu Zhou asked.
It was easy to deal with the ten halls, and the cultivators would likely blindly follow the ten halls. However, that was not factoring in the Sacred Temple. In the end, they still depended on the Sacred Temple.
“The Sacred Temple and the Sacred Region can’t stop the fall of the Great Void. They’ll have to find a place to seek refuge as well. We don’t need to worry about this. Ming Xin should have his own ways.”
Bai Zhaoju said, “I’m afraid Ming Xin won’t allow you to complete your plan so easily. If he insists on bringing chaos to the world, what will you do?”
“Indeed, this is the most crucial problem,” Si Wuya said. Then, he looked at Lu Zhou.
Bai Zhaoju and Jiang Aijiang followed Si Wuya and looked at Lu Zhou as well.
Si Wuya said, “If master pressures Ming Xin, he won’t have a choice but to obey.”
Bai Zhaoju laughed heartily. “This is indeed an amazing method! Your master crushed everyone 100,000 years ago! He can be said to be invincible! Ming Xin and the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple all, at some point, learned a thing or two at Grand Mystic Mountain. In terms of status and strength, they’re much weaker than Brother Ji. As long Brother Ji calls for me, I’ll join forces with the other three Emperors of the Lost Lands to pave the way for Brother Ji! At that time, no cultivator would dare to disobey!”
“...”
Lu Zhou frowned imperceptibly. ‘You’re all dreaming so beautifully…’
Only Lu Zhou knew that his current strength was far from that of a divine emperor. Moreover, Ming Xin’s Scales of Justice could raise the strength of more than 1,000 Templars at the same time. Who could deal with such a heaven-defying treasure?
Jiang Aijian said excitedly, “The White Emperor is right! I wish Senior Ji would return to his peak and take back Grand Mystic Mountain!”
Lu Zhou remained silent. After a moment, he rose to his feet and said, “Let’s stop here for today. Make sure the others are safe when they comprehend the Great Dao.”
Si Wuya rose to his feet and said, “Understood. I’ll take my leave first.”
Bai Zhaoju wanted to continue chatting, but when he saw Lu Zhou’s solemn expression, he could only say, “Qi Sheng, I want to chat with you all night!”
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Si Wuya said and left with Bai Zhaoju.
Only Jiang Aijian was left in the hall with Lu Zhou. He suddenly felt like there was something wrong with Lu Zhou’s expression so he forced a smile on his face and said, “Farewell.”
After everyone left, Lu Zhou returned to the eastern pavilion. He brought his blue and golden avatars out. As he absorbed the energy from the four power cores, he formed his second sun disk.
Lu Zhou wanted to try to sprout the 15th leaf. After activating his Birth Charts with the divine soul pearl, he was only left with 1,260,000 years. He did not know how much life it would take to sprout the 15th leaf, and he was not sure if he would succeed.
“How can I know if I don’t try?”
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
With that, the two lotuses of the two avatars began to spin at the same time.
…
At the same time.
At the upper core of the Pillar of Destruction at Zhu Yong Hall.
A huge flying chariot hovered in the air above the upper core.
Zhu Yong sat on the deck of the flying chariot. When he saw three figures, he said with a smile, “According to the rules of the Great Void, Miss Zhao Yue is the new Commander of Zhu Yong Hall. I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for three commanders from the other halls to show up here, right?”
Yu Zhenghai said in a clear voice, “I’m Zhao Yue’s Eldest Senior Brother before anything else. I’m naturally obligated to ensure her safety. It’s important to comprehend the Great Dao, but we also have to guard against those with evil intentions, right?”
Some of the cultivators next to the flying chariot were furious. Those words were clearly scolding them.
Zhu Yong said with a smile, “I’ve heard about the incident at Rou Zhao Hall’s upper core. You can rest a.s.sured. I won’t make such a low-level mistake.”
“I’m not worried about you; I’m worried about the others,” Yu Zhenghai said clearly.
“No matter who it is, they’ll have to face me,” Zhu Yong said, “Miss Zhao Yue, please enter the upper core.”
Zhao Yue cupped her fists together at Zhu Yong and flew over.
Ye Tianxin said with a smile, “Fifth Senior Sister, don’t worry. Calm down.”
“Alright.”
Zhao Yue walked toward the entrance.
Boom!
A powerful force sent Zhao Yue flying back. She flipped a few times in the air before she managed to stabilize herself.
The cultivators around the flying chariot looked confused. Everyone said that the owners of the Great Void Seeds were highly talented, and it would not be difficult for them to enter the upper cores.
Zhao Yue calmed down before she tried to enter the upper core again.
Buzz!
The powerful force swept out again.
Zhao Yue, who was now prepared, pushed her hand out. However, it was difficult to advance.
Upon seeing this, Ye Tianxin said, “Don’t resist it. Treat the power as yours…”
“Treat it as my own?” Zhao Yue lowered her hand.
Boom!
Zhao Yue was sent flying again.
Ye Tianxin flashed and appeared behind Zhao Yue in a blink of an eye, supporting her.
Zhu Yong was shocked upon seeing this. ‘The great law of s.p.a.ce?’
