Chapter 1090 The Emperor’s Decree
Cui Yu saw Ji Xiaofeng, and Ji Xiaofeng of course also saw Cui Yu. For a moment, the four of them looked at each other with mixed feelings and no one was speechless.
The relationship between Cui Yu and Ji Xiaofeng was ambiguous. It was Cui Yu who first discovered that Ji Xiaofeng was a girl.
Ji Xiaofeng could never have imagined that the foolish boy who had fought with him in Liangjie Mountain in the past had suddenly transformed into a world-famous master, becoming a hegemon, and vaguely influencing the fate of the world.
"Greetings, Your Highness." Cui Yu was the first to come to his senses and bowed.
"Don't be so polite. I don't know your character yet." Ji Xiaofeng said with a smile.
Cui Yu straightened his back and invited Ji Xiaofeng to sit in the backyard, then served tea to Ji Xiaofeng: "Your Highness, please."
Ji Xiaofeng looked at Cui Yu with complicated eyes: "I really didn't expect you to have such good fortune today."
"I never thought that my father would be the headmaster of Zhenwu Mountain, and he even gave the position to me." Cui Yu said with a smile.
Ji Xiaofeng didn't believe Cui Yu's lies. The Great Zhou Dynasty had also secretly spread countless spies. There were spies set up by the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past on Zhenwu Mountain. There were even many royal relatives who went to Zhenwu Mountain to learn skills. Ji Xiaofeng could not hide what happened on Zhenwu Mountain from his eyes and ears.
The two chatted about this and that for a while, and Ji Xiaofeng couldn't help but get straight to the point: "I'm here to announce the emperor's order. The emperor of the Great Zhou ordered you, the master of Zhenwu Mountain, to go to Haojing City to deal with Zhang Jiao of the Taiping Dao."
Cui Yu paused while drinking tea when he heard this, and looked at Ji Xiaofeng in surprise. He couldn't help but sigh that the Emperor of the Great Zhou had made a good plan. Taiping Dao and Zhenwu Mountain were the leaders of the Qi training school now, and the Emperor of Zhou actually wanted to use Zhenwu Mountain to curb Taiping Dao. What a good plan.
"Zhang Jiao of the Taiping Dao controls Huang Tian. Your Highness, do you think that I, Zhenwu Mountain, can be Zhang Jiao's opponent?" Cui Yu asked in return.
"It's true that Zhang Jiao has mastered Huang Tian, but your Taiping Dao was able to silently kill all the evil gods and Qigong masters in the world. I'm afraid your foundation is not worse than that of Taiping Dao, right?" Ji Xiaofeng stared at Cui Yu.
Cui Yu smiled and said, "This is just an appearance. If my Zhenwu Mountain had such a foundation, the number one sect in the world would not be Taiping Dao but my Zhenwu Mountain."
"You want to disobey the order?" The third prince frowned. "Don't forget that Zhenwu Mountain has already submitted to the Great Zhou Dynasty. It has long been a subordinate force of the Great Zhou Dynasty and has merged with the fate of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Zhang Jue defeats the emperor and sweeps the world with a great victory, do you think Taiping Dao will let Zhenwu Mountain go? Even if you have a close personal relationship with Zhang Jue, do you think Zhang Jue can disobey Huang Tian's order? Don't you know the principle of lips and teeth? We are now grasshoppers on the same rope."
Upon hearing this, Cui Yu looked at Ji Xiaofeng. He certainly knew that what Ji Xiaofeng said made sense, but he was more afraid of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After all, the Great Zhou Dynasty not only had a Heaven that had swallowed up the world's destiny for five thousand years, but also had an unfathomable Great Zhou Taizu, as well as more than a dozen innate spiritual treasures.
Cui Yu feels that Zhang Jiao’s winning rate is not high!
The Great Zhou is not simple. How can a terrifying force that can defeat the previous dynasty be simple?
Countless thoughts flashed through Cui Yu's mind as he pondered over how to deal with the third prince. To be honest, he had already settled down in the Buddhist Kingdom on Earth and Han Xin, and did not want to continue to tangle with the Zhou court.
Moreover, the strange forces he supports are beginning to rise. He wants to use the strange forces to override the human race and collect faith for himself. The unification of the human vassal states is of no benefit to him.
"Right now my Zhenwu Mountain is integrating the power of Qigong practitioners. We are really unable to continue. No one in my Zhenwu Mountain can spare a hand to support the Great Zhou. If the Emperor of Zhou does not abandon us, my Zhenwu Mountain is willing to dispatch hundreds of disciples to the royal court of the Great Zhou to await deployment." Cui Yu said with a burning gaze.
There are still some old people who stayed on Zhenwu Mountain from the past, as well as various interests that are not controlled by Cui Yu. It would be a good idea to take this opportunity to reorganize Zhenwu Mountain and send all those disobedient old people out to serve as cannon fodder to the Emperor of the Great Zhou.
Ji Xiaofeng stared at Cui Yu and said, "Only send some disciples and elders? What about you? Did the Jinzhi strongman from Zhenwu Mountain take action?"
Cui Yu smiled when he heard this: "Facing a strong man like Cang Tian, what can Jin Chi do? He is just an ant. Moreover, Jin Chi needs to stay in Zhenwu Mountain and suppress the fate of Zhenwu Mountain. He cannot move easily."
"Do you want to disobey the order?" Ji Xiaofeng asked, without any emotion in her voice.
Cui Yu smiled without saying anything. Although he did not answer, his attitude said it all. He told Ji Xiaofeng the answer with his attitude.
"The Emperor of Zhou will never allow you to disobey his order. I hope you don't get yourself into trouble, otherwise after Zhang Jiao is defeated, the Emperor of Zhou will definitely settle accounts with Zhenwu Mountain." Ji Xiaofeng looked at Cui Yu and said earnestly, "Your Zhenwu Mountain might as well send a strong man with a golden order to show his respect. The Emperor of Zhou only wants your attitude! If you can satisfy the Emperor of Zhou, he can even defeat Zhang Jiao and let your Zhenwu Mountain take over the power of Taiping Dao, support your Taiping Dao to become the number one sect in the world, and gather the luck of the entire Qigong lineage."
Cui Yu smiled when he heard this. He raised his head and looked into the void. His black and white eyes reflected the chaos in the Dharma Realm. He could feel the breath of the head of the Heavenly Dao coming from the chaos. After Emperor Zhou defeated Zhang Jue, or if Zhang Jiao really counterattacked Emperor Zhou, by then he would have mastered the torso and head of the Heavenly Dao. Would Cui Yu be afraid of Emperor Zhou then?
Cui Yu smiled when he heard this, picked up the teacup and motioned Ji Xiaofeng to drink tea: "If you can persuade Cui Lao Hu or the old Taoist priest to go to the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty to help, I will naturally have nothing to say. And although I am the head of Zhenwu Mountain, do you think I can command Cui Lao Hu and the old Taoist priest with my current cultivation level?"
Cui Yu directly chose to pass the blame.
Although Cui Yu had attained the status of Golden Immortal, he had already used the inversion of yin and yang to conceal the secrets of heaven. How come no one knew about this?
In the eyes of outsiders, Cui Yu is just a small cultivator in the realm of supernatural powers. He has not even survived a disaster. Why can he give orders to the old Taoist priest and Cui Lao Hu?
Ji Xiaofeng was choked when he heard this. He stared at Cui Yu with his eyes fixed on him, unable to speak. Although what Cui Yu said made sense, why did Ji Xiaofeng feel so awkward? If you were an ordinary headmaster, could you force Cui Lao Hu to bow his head? Could you force Cui Cancan to run to the Han Kingdom and start a new business?
Ji Xiaofeng took a deep breath after hearing this: "Okay! Since you, the headmaster, can't make the decision, then I want to see the old Heavenly Master."
Ji Xiaofeng wants to see the old Taoist priest and ask him to give an answer in person!
If the old Taoist priest dared to say no, the masters of the imperial court would have descended on Zhenwu Mountain and razed it to the ground before the Zhou emperor and Zhang Jue could decide the winner.
The imperial court couldn’t do anything to Zhang Jiao who had Huang Tian on his side, so how could it not do anything to you, the Zhenwu Mountain?
Although the old Taoist priest's cultivation looked very good in the eyes of outsiders, it was just so-so in the eyes of the imperial court. After all, all magical powers and Taoism were nothing but ants in the eyes of heaven.
Cui Yu could see the murderous look in Ji Xiaofeng's brows, but he remained calm and said, "I'll find someone to pass the message on."
Cui Yu took out the incense and lit it in front of him. The incense floated into the Dharma Realm, but there was no response. After the incense was burned out, Cui Yu replied, "The old Taoist priest is not at home, and I don't know when he will come back. How about waiting for a month? If the old Taoist priest comes back, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible."
Ji Xiaofeng gritted her teeth in anger when she heard this. A month later, the dust had settled and the matter was over.
"I hope you don't regret your decision today." Ji Xiaofeng waved his sleeves and left.
Looking at Ji Xiaofeng's departing back, the void twisted, and the old Heavenly Master appeared in the hall: "We have already submitted to the King of Zhou. Now that the King of Zhou has summoned us, is it really okay for us to disobey his order?"
Cui Yu looked at the old Taoist priest and said, "How about you go to Gaojing City to pay homage to the Emperor of Zhou?"
The old Taoist priest's face darkened when he heard this. If he went to Haojing City, what if the Zhou Emperor won and forced him to hand over his life aura and took the opportunity to master the great way of Qigong practitioners? Wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth? With the previous experience of Zhang Jiao, the Great Zhou Dynasty would never allow a second Taiping Dao in the world. Zhenwu Mountain wanted to unify the Qigong sects in the world, but the Zhou Emperor would never allow it! The future of Zhenwu Mountain and the Great Zhou Dynasty is foreseeable.
Either Zhenwu Mountain surrenders to the Great Zhou, or it is reduced to ashes.
But now Zhenwu Mountain is about to become a big success. As long as Emperor Zhou kills Taiping Dao, Zhenwu Mountain will become the only orthodox Qigong practitioner. At that time, it will gain incredible luck. Will the old master be willing to give it up? This luck is his only chance to transcend in the past five thousand years!
“If Taiping Dao wins, and if I choose to go to Da Zhou now, what if Zhang Jiao wins and uses the power of Huang Tian to force me to surrender? Wouldn’t that be a big trouble? No matter who wins or loses between the two of them, I will be in big trouble if I go there! I won’t have a good end in Zhenwu Mountain!” The old Taoist priest’s eyes were full of wisdom.
"Now the city of Haojing is the center of the storm. If I am not a fool, I will never go to the court of the Great Zhou. We must make preparations for both situations. If the Taiping Dao wins, we need to launch a surprise attack on the Taiping Dao with thundering means and uproot the Taiping Dao's foundation. The princes will not watch the Taiping Dao replace the Great Zhou and win a complete victory. After finally killing the Zhou emperor, a Taiping Dao that is superior to everyone will pop up. The princes will never allow it! Zhang Jue will only have the body of Huang Tian by then, but will lose the foundation of the world! Zhang Jue will fight with the Zhou emperor, and even if he wins, he will surely suffer heavy losses. At that time, facing the situation of my Zhenwu Mountain, he will have to accept it and compromise with us. If he refuses to compromise, we will just slaughter him! And the world..." The old Taoist priest's voice was full of confidence.
"If the Taiping Dao doesn't know what's good for us, we might have a chance to kill the sky ourselves!" the old Taoist muttered.
