Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 727 'Yuan Tiangang' (2)

You know, the Shangqing Saint is the proudest among the saints!
During the great calamity of the Conferred Gods, the Sage of Shangqing knew that the Sage of Taiqing and the Sage of Yuqing were trying to make things difficult for the Two Sages of the West and himself, but he did not back down in fear, but chose to confront them head-on.

You should know that during the Conferred Gods Tribulation, there were many disciples of the Jiejiao who were born in the demon tribe. Based on this reason alone, the Shangqing Saint could ask Nuwa to help fight Jiejiao. If Nuwa really joined forces with the Shangqing Saint, and with the help of the power of the Four Swords of Zhuxian, even if the four saints joined forces to besiege, the outcome of the Conferred Gods Tribulation would be unknown! However, the pride of the Shangqing Saint did not allow him to join forces with others, let alone bow to others.

Therefore, from the fact that the Shangqing Saint tacitly approved the Zhunti Saint's plot against the demon race, it can be seen that the Shangqing Saint values ​​​​the "Martial Ancestor".

In fact, Saint Shangqing is not clear about the situation of "Martial Ancestor" now!

As a saint of the Heavenly Dao, the Saint of Shangqing should join other saints in suppressing and containing the Martial Ancestor. Because the existence of the Martial Ancestor is too threatening to the Heavenly Dao and the saints. Once the Martial Ancestor returns to the human race, the human race with the Martial Ancestor in charge will really have the determination and strength to resist the saint. Therefore, the saints are more afraid of the Martial Ancestor than other saints.

However, the feelings of the Shangqing Saint towards the 'Martial Ancestor' did not allow him to embarrass the 'Martial Ancestor'! Therefore, the Shangqing Saint pretended to be deaf and dumb about the matter of the 'Martial Ancestor' and did not care!

Just now, after the Saint Shangqing concealed the disciple token of Yuan Tiangang, he did not further deduce or investigate Yuan Tiangang's background.

And this is the preference of the Shangqing Saint for the 'Martial Ancestor'.

East China Sea!

Kui Niu waited for a long time, but did not receive any edict from the Shangqing Saint to rebuke him. He immediately understood that the Shangqing Saint had tacitly approved of his actions.

After the Conferred Gods, many reforms were made within Jiejiao. For example, if a disciple of Jiejiao's inner sect or above wanted to join the sect, he had to burn incense and pray to the saints. Only after the saints of Shangqing allowed him to grant the Jiejiao disciple identity token, could he be considered to have officially joined the Jiejiao sect. Therefore, it was impossible for Kuiniu to forge the identity of a Jiejiao disciple for Emperor Gouchen without being able to hide it from the saints of Shangqing.

Kuiniu's promotion to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal (quasi-saint) was due to the karma of Emperor Gou Chen. Kuiniu had already prepared himself to be punished by the Sage of Shangqing because of Emperor Gou Chen's request. After all, forging the identity of a Jiejiao disciple was an evil act that destroyed the foundation of Jiejiao, and even Kuiniu, the head of Jiejiao's earthly immortal world, could not afford it.

But the indifference of the Saint Shangqing made Kuiniu feel completely relieved.

Of course, Kuiniu believed that the reason why the Sage of Shangqing did not punish him was not because he was favored by the Sage of Shangqing, but because of Zhu Qi or the "Wu Zu".

Kui Niu believed that Emperor Gou Chen was involved with Zhu Qi, and that Emperor Gou Chen's rude request was definitely related to Zhu Qi. Therefore, the reason why the Sage of Shang Qing did not punish him was definitely because of the "Martial Ancestor". Since the Sage of Shang Qing tacitly approved of what he had done, Kui Niu put aside his worries and became more active.

……

"Disciple Han Xiang pays respect to Master, congratulations on Master's advancement to Primordial Golden Immortal, great avenues are in store for you!"

In the Jiejiao Hall, Han Xiang was full of joy as he congratulated his master. The importance of a disciple of a Daluo Jinxian and a disciple of a Quasi-Sage was completely different. Now that Kuiniu had been promoted to Hunyuan Jinxian, his background and support had become more solid, so how could Han Xiang not be happy?

The news of Kuiniu's promotion to Hunyuan Jinxian was not spread. At this time, the great catastrophe of heaven and earth was breaking out, and Jiejiao and Kuiniu both pursued a low-key strategy. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, even the Jiejiao disciples on Sanxian Island did not know that their leader had been promoted to Hunyuan Jinxian (quasi-saint).

However, Han Xiang was Kuiniu's direct disciple, and the master and disciple were connected by destiny. Kuiniu could hide it from others, but not from the Shangqing Saint and Han Xiang. Han Xiang was also a cautious person. Seeing that his master had not publicized his promotion, he also kept his mouth shut. Apart from himself, even the Dragon Girl did not know about Kuiniu's promotion.

Kuiniu looked at the gentle and capable Han Xiang and said, "It seems that you have grown a lot in Jiuyi Mountain over the years." As he spoke, Kuiniu's face changed and he said, "You are not on duty in the Netherworld at this time. Did you come back to the East Sea to congratulate me?"

Han Xiang hurriedly said: "Master, this disciple has already asked for leave from the Imperial Palace for this trip, and it is definitely not an act of laziness."

Han Xiang was a gentle gentleman, and Kuiniu did not doubt what he said.

Seeing Kuiniu's expression softened, Han Xiang continued, "Han Xiang has been in the Netherworld for many years and has not served Master. I miss Master very much, so I took a few days off to come and see Master." Kuiniu nodded and said, "Okay, Xiang'er, don't act like a child."

Kuiniu gently comforted Han Xiang and reminded her, "Xiang'er, the Great Emperor Tianqi Rensheng thinks highly of you. You should do your best in Jiuyi Mountain and not let the Great Emperor down."

Han Xiang nodded and said, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. I will never dare to do anything reckless, bring shame to Jiejiao, or fail the trust of the Great Emperor."

Kuiniu nodded when he heard this.

Kui Niu was very satisfied with the disciple that Zhu Qi had planned for him and snatched from Taoism. Throughout the Jiejiao, there were very few disciples like Han Xiang who had excellent qualifications, character, conduct, wisdom, understanding, and perseverance. Therefore, Kui Niu valued this disciple very much.

After Han Xiang finished speaking, Kuiniu continued, "Since you have returned to the East China Sea, I have a letter here. Go to Nanshanbuzhou and deliver it to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

It is only natural that the master should do the work for the disciple. Han Xiang took the jade pendant from Kuiniu without thinking and said, "The disciple obeys the order and will present the master's letter to the emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

Kuiniu said softly, "This matter is not urgent. It is not easy for you to serve on duty at Mount Jiuyi. You can also go to Nanshanbuzhou to visit your people."

Han Xiang felt warm in his heart and said, "Thank you, Master. I understand."

Back then, Han Xiang was named by Tianqi Rensheng Emperor to go to Mount Jiuyi. In these years in Mount Jiuyi, Han Xiang worked diligently and did not disappoint the expectations of Tianqi Rensheng Emperor.

However, the way of immortals is free and easy, while the way of gods is majestic.

Han Xiang has been working in Jiuyi Mountain for many years. Although his life is fulfilling, he has rarely been free. In these years, Han Xiang has not even left the Netherworld, let alone come to the East China Sea to pay respect to his master or go to the Southern Continent to see his family.

After all, the earthly immortal world is a supernatural world of gods and demons.

Although Han Xiang never left the netherworld, time meant nothing to the immortals and gods.

Although the human race has a limited lifespan, Han Xiang's only concern is Han Yu, who is already a great sage of the human race. A little time is of no importance to Han Yu.

Kuiniu arranged for Han Xiang to deliver the letter.

Gou Chen Imperial Palace.

Emperor Gou Chen also gave a jade bead to the Monkey King and asked him to go down to the mortal world to meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in Jambudvīpa.

Since 'Wu Zu' used the alias 'Yuan Tiangang' to plot against the human race, Emperor Gou Chen would naturally support him in secret.

The jade pendant of Emperor Gou Chen was quite simple, it just informed the Tang Dynasty about the war in the world.

The Gou Chen Imperial Palace controls the human world's wars, and the Tang Dynasty is the orthodox of the human race's earthly immortal world. It is only natural for the Gou Chen Imperial Palace to report military affairs to the Tang Dynasty.
