Chapter 205: 204: Defend the Righteous Path (Thanks to Book Friend Ling Cage Bird for the league leader's reward)_1



Lu Yang and Man Gu were focused on selecting their rewards.

“Man Gu, what do you want to buy?”

“I want to buy a writing manual. My master says my writing is not good and I need to practice more.”

Man Gu was attracted by a writing manual on the exchange list.

“Thunderbolt Manual, Ha! What a domineering name! I’ll take it!”

Lu Yang wanted to advise Man Gu to think more carefully, but before he could speak, Man Gu had already bought it.

The cover of the Thunderbolt Manual was a huge lightning bolt. The first page contained the user instructions.

“Let me see the instructions… When writing with a brush on the manual, once it goes beyond the edge, the manual will burst with powerful thunderbolts. Please use with caution.”

“Attention: Please do not soak this manual in water, as there is a risk of electric leakage.”

Man Gu: “…”

Is writing so dangerous now?

Man Gu didn’t buy anything else. He wanted to use his remaining contribution points to go to the Refining Peak in order to strengthen his iron hammer.

Fighting while automatically reciting the “Words of the Saint” was not enough to fully display his identity as a Confucian Cultivator. Man Gu wanted to inscribe the “Words of the Saint” on his iron hammer and add two more corners to it, making sure that every strike punches a hole.

Perfect.

At the palace.

The Chief Eunuch had served Emperor Xia for over forty years. He thought he knew the ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty very well, but what came next completely shattered his understanding.

Emperor Xia, sitting on the imperial chair, saw Yun Zhi slowly approaching and actively stood up to welcome her with a smile on his face.

“Daoist Yun Zhi has arrived, please sit down.”

Emperor Xia surprisingly prepared a chair for Yun Zhi. He then took his seat next to her, not returning to his Imperial chair.

“Bring the fruits that were just tribute from the south for Daoist Yun Zhi to taste.”

A young eunuch quickly came over with a plate of fruit, which contained a variety of fruits, some resembling lychees and some resembling bananas…

Yun Zhi peeled a fruit that looked like a lychee. Inside was a golden pulp that contained astonishing natural treasures. Just eating one could improve a cultivator from the late stage of Qi Refinement all the way to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

“The taste is not bad.” Yun Zhi politely sampled and praised it. This delighted Emperor Xia.

“Quickly bring a box for Daoist Yun Zhi to take away!”

Even the Chief Eunuch, with his inherent ability to keep a straight face, looked slightly taken aback at this sight.

He had never seen the emperor treat anyone so cordially.

Yun Zhi stopped Emperor Xia’s behavior. “Your Majesty doesn’t have to be like this, just say what you want.”

Emperor Xia ordered everyone to leave, leaving only him and Yun Zhi.

Rubbing his hands together in excitement, Emperor Xia asked, “I’ve heard that your cultivation level, Daoist Yun Zhi, seems to be much higher than that of our family’s ancestor?”

Yun Zhi slowly shook her head. “It’s just a small difference. Please don’t exaggerate, Your Majesty.”

Emperor Xia said, “Our ancestor has been feeling very superior lately, thinking he’s invincible. This mindset is not conducive to cultivation. So I was thinking of finding someone to teach him a lesson. I thought about it, and I think you, Daoist Yun Zhi, are the most suitable.”

Yun Zhi: “… Does Your Majesty have any grudges against your ancestor?”

To Yun Zhi’s knowledge, Emperor Xia’s Ancestor was not that kind of person.

Emperor Xia chuckled, “Daoist Yun Zhi, you really have a sense of humor. I’ve been tormented by my ancestor since I was a child. How could I possibly bear any grudges against him?”

Yun Zhi: “…”

“Alright, alright. What I said was just a joke. Please don’t take it seriously.” Emperor Xia’s laughter subsided as he said this.

Yun Zhi wanted to say that His Majesty didn’t look like he was joking, but she decided it would be better not to say anything that could damage their relationship.

Yun Zhi was well aware of this simple formality.

“On your call, Daoist Yun Zhi summoned the Four Great Immortal Sects to the Great Xia Dynasty. I presume you’ve made a significant discovery while eradicating the Eternity Sect?”

“Yes.” Yun Zhi simply nodded in response and didn’t say anything else.

Seeing Yun Zhi remain silent, Emperor Xia thought she must have her reservations and said: “Daoist Yun Zhi, are you worried that the information will be leaked here? You don’t have to worry about that. This place is protected by an Immortal-level array set up by our ancestor. Even an immortal would not be able to secretly eavesdrop.”

“Or, are you implying that this information is too sensitive to be spoken of directly and must be expressed through gestures instead?”

Emperor Xia contemplated the meaning hidden in Yun Zhi’s silence. Was she subtly indicating that the enemy was everywhere? Was silence the best method to handle the enemy? Was Daoist Buyu the key to resolving the issue?

Yun Zhi hesitated a moment before saying: “I just didn’t want to repeat the same words with Your Majesty and then with the masters of the Four Great Immortal Sects.”

Emperor Xia: “…”

The masters of the Four Great Immortal Sects soon arrived at the palace, including Qiu Jin’an from the Five Elements Sect, who had only parted ways with the others a short while ago.

Qiu Jin’an had not expected the Seek Dao Sect to act so quickly. In less than five days, the Eternity Sect had been eradicated, and even the breeding grounds established by the Eternity Sect’s Master were sealed.

“Daoist Yun Zhi, nice to see you again.” Qiu Jin’an greeted her with a bow.

“The Seek Dao Sect did a splendid job! One of the Four Great Devil Sects has been eradicated directly! I wonder what reaction the remaining three devil sects will have when they hear this news. They must be terrified!” The Sect Leader of the Prison Suppressing Sect laughed heartily. There was no news more exhilarating than this.

He decided that once he returned to his sect, everyone would have a five-day holiday to celebrate.

“So it is.” The Abbot of the Suspension Temple, holding his Buddhist beads, was sparing with his words, but his expression showed he was pleased.

Luo Hongxia, the Palace Master of the Laurel Fairy Palace, dared not speak to Yun Zhi for fear that Yun Zhi might bring up the marriage proposal between Lu Yang and Lan Ting.

Through this operation, the Four Great Immortal Sects changed their initial judgement of the Seek Dao Sect.

The former evaluation was: “The Four Great Immortal Sects defend the Righteous Path; the Seek Dao Sect shakes the Righteous Path.”

Now, the assessment had changed to: “The Five Great Immortal Sects defend the Righteous Path.”

Yun Zhi was not aware of their internal thoughts and went straight to the point.

“This time, I have convened you all here to share some information that we obtained from the Eternity Sect – information the Eternity Sect’s own master did not know.”

“Let me start with the conclusion.”

“The existence of the Four Devil Sects may overturn our previous understanding. We used to think that the existence of the devil sects was simply the result of demon cultivators banding together, posing less of a threat than the upcoming Great Era.”

“Now, I wish to correct my own view. I believe that the mastermind behind the Four Great Devil Sects is an ancient immortal. The purpose of their existence is to condense the Dao Fruit’s embryonic form. At the appropriate time, this ancient immortal will take the Dao Fruit’s embryonic form and convert it into his own power.”

Upon hearing this, the five people were all stunned.

They were all of astonishing backgrounds, privy to many secrets associated with immortals, including matters about the Dao Fruit and its embryonic state.

Emperor Xia asked urgently: “Do you have evidence?”

The existence of the four devil sects was all to condense the Dao Fruit, and the ancient immortal took the Dao Fruit.

This meant that one immortal could have two Dao Fruits!

This was a terrifying prospect!

“Of course, I have a witness.”

Yun Zhi snapped her fingers, and an old immortal appeared from another space.”

“This is the Eternity Sect’s belief, the Immortal Eternity.”

“Nice to meet you elders, please call me Little Face.”
