If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 1460 Faith
Fuqiu Gong's smile faded, and he pondered, "Of course I hope that Yu Fengxian will take the time travel experiences of the heroes of Shenzhou as their true destiny."

But she wasn't exaggerating. She truly understood destiny and could discern truth from falsehood; at the very least, she wouldn't believe everything.

Li Futu disagreed, saying, "She understands fate; it's not like we just found out today."

I'm even certain that she knows a lot about the dragon veins of the Hidden Dragon.

They can predict their fate by examining the dragon veins.

Knowing the direction does not equate to understanding the specific evolutionary process.

Even with our combined calculations, we cannot determine who possesses the aura of an emperor in the southeast. We cannot determine who Heaven has chosen as the 'chosen one' to destroy Qin.

Not only us, but even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother cannot be certain.

The thousands of small worlds within the Lesser Cave Heaven are all simulating the evolution of the heavens, and aren't they just collecting information to serve the Queen Mother of the West?

Based on current observations, Xiaoyoudongtian concludes that Jingju possesses the aura of an emperor.

I, however, think that Jingju is likely covering for the true emperor.

My understanding stems from my detailed observation of the three hundred time-travel incidents. The Queen Mother of the West didn't observe them, so she doesn't know.

"No matter how powerful Yu Fengxian's celestial divination techniques are, can they surpass the Queen Mother of the West, whose cultivation is far superior and who possesses countless minor worlds to help deduce the destiny of heaven?"

Jiudian said, "What you said is common sense, and we all understand it. What we fear is that Yu Fengxian will break common sense."

Li Futu pointed to the starry dome, "The three hundred small worlds are completely hidden, and no one can find them."

Even if we were to happen to find them, it would alert us, who are concealing them under magic. What unexpected events could possibly occur?

“I’m not worried about Yu Fengxian finding the three hundred minor worlds. What I mean is, let’s think carefully, does Yu Fengxian have any other means to obtain detailed information about the transmigration? Sigh, I’m a little uneasy,” Jiudian said.

Upon hearing this, the immortals did not refuse.

They either squinted their eyes or had eyes that shone with a divine light, all using their most proficient methods to calculate good fortune, misfortune, and the future.

Gradually, more and more people, like those at Jiudian before them, frowned, feeling slightly uneasy.

“Our plan is flawless, where did things go wrong?” Fuqiu Gong murmured.

"In theory, only we have seen all three hundred time travels in a comprehensive and thorough manner, and only we have the true information about the heroes of China."

"If there really is a problem, could it be that one of us has a problem?" Li Futu asked hesitantly.

The prospective Grandmasters looked at each other, all feeling a sense of absurdity.

"How could we be possessed by Yu Fengxian's demonic thoughts without even realizing it?"

Yang Bosan's heart stirred, and he said, "Go and call Danhua God! We can't possibly have any problems, but once he's been targeted by Yu Fengxian, he probably won't be able to escape."

Fuqiu Gong waved his hand and said, "There's no need to call him over. If it were the original Lady Danhua, and she harbored disloyal intentions, she might be able to help Yu Fengxian secretly spy on the transmigrated world."

The current Cui Yulang (Danhua God's real name) has absolutely no ability to reveal our secrets.

At this point, he had not even fully embraced the faith of 'God of Danhua'.

Even gods cannot descend to the lesser mortal realms. To convey their will to believers, they must rely on the Immortal Transformation Pool.

Even if he were truly possessed by the demonic power of the Feathered Phoenix Immortal, what could he possibly do?

Well, Fuqiu Gong wasn't a fool; his analysis at this moment was completely correct.

What God Yu can do, God Danhua simply cannot do.

God Yu can even do things that Lady Danhua cannot.

Because her raw power is higher. The same Taoist technique will definitely be more powerful when used by someone with higher cultivation.

This was also because she possessed the Purple Mansion, a cheat code. The Danhua God was merely trying to imitate Lady Danhua, while the Feather God had broken through his authority, elevating the power of the "Divine God" to a higher level.

It sounds unbelievable. But Meng Shi Xiaoyu did indeed improve upon Daozu's "Demon-Suppressing Divine Incantation," making it even stronger. The "Thirteen Divine Incantations of Grand Tutor Yu" that she gave to Yumen Zhenren even received praise from Daozu.

Everyone has weaknesses, and no Daoist technique is perfect. Zi Fu cracked the loophole, and Xiao Yu patched it; the Daoist technique will definitely become stronger.

This was Yu Taishi's "common sense," but it broke the common sense of normal people like Fuqiu Gong.

Fuqiu Gong continued, "In any case, I have disguised the fate of every hidden dragon of the Divine Land after their journey."

Even if Yu Fengxian glimpsed some of the truth, she could not know it all like we do.

She only had a superficial understanding, and was likely more misled than understood.

After saying that, he threw the star chart towards the dome.

The eight-inch-sized plate rapidly expanded, transforming into giant star trails that merged into the starry sky above the dome, becoming invisible star orbits.

"Would you like to meet those heroes from the Central Plains? I must take them back to the Dragon Palace," said Fuqiu Gongdao.

"We should try our best not to show ourselves in public," Jiudian said, shaking his head.

A moment later, at the Immortal Transformation Pool.

"Master Fuqiu, I am still exhausted!" Liu Laosan called out, stretching his neck.

"Lord Fuqiu, I still feel decayed and old. I haven't soaked in the Soul-Nourishing Divine Water long enough!" Ying Bu stretched his neck as much as possible and called out to Lord Fuqiu above the Immortal Transformation Pool.

"Great Immortal, the effects of soaking in the Soul-Nourishing Water are much worse than before," Tian Rong exclaimed.

In the Immortal Transformation Pool, more than 80% of the heroes of the land were shouting.

After hesitating for a moment, Fuqiu Gong took out a quarter of a large red peach from his pocket and gently squeezed the peach flesh.

"Drip~~" A few drops of peach juice fell into the Soul Nourishing Bottle.

He put the peaches away, gently shook the Soul-Nourishing Bottle, and once again pointed the bottle's opening at the assembled heroes.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~" All the shouting heroes transformed into streaks of light and plunged into the bottle opening.

Fuqiu Gong shook the Soul Nourishing Bottle for a moment, then poured them all into the Immortal Transformation Pool.

This time, many heroes from across China calmed down and even showed expressions of satisfaction.

"Master, I haven't 'marinated' myself enough yet!" Liu Ji exclaimed with a dissatisfied look.

Fuqiu Gong activated his spiritual eye, stared at him carefully for a moment, and after confirming that his celestial soul was clear and without any "dust of time," he angrily said, "What are you doing in the Soul Nourishing Bottle? Do you think I don't know?"

This guy treated him like a sucker, cultivating a secret soul technique in the Soul Nourishing Bottle, and actually managed to forcibly seize the immortal spiritual energy.

The reason why the heroes failed to cleanse their souls earlier was probably because this bastard had drained their immortal essence.

They were ultimately reincarnated through the Immortal Transformation Pool, not living for dozens or hundreds of lifetimes.

The process of reincarnation naturally cleanses away the decay of time.

If they completely forget their past lives with each reincarnation, they will not experience mental fatigue or soul wear and tear, and will not need to soak in soul-nourishing water containing the essence of immortality.

Despite his anger, Fuqiu Gong ultimately did not expose Liu Laosan's secret.

"Liu Ji, what did you do?" the heroes asked curiously.

Liu Ji's heart tightened, his eyes darted around, and he said, "I... I needed to pee, I peed..."

I'll fuck your mother!

"Damn it, I'm drinking the soul-nourishing divine water, and you're peeing! Wait, how can you pee? We're souls now, we don't pee or poop."

"I do feel the urge to urinate, but I can't. Is Liu Ji perhaps gifted with some extraordinary talent?"

Fuqiu Gong shouted, "You're all having fun making a ruckus here, do you know what's going on outside? The Qin court has already taken action against you!"

The heroes were shocked. "How do we make a move? What's going on? We didn't spend much time traversing the small worlds, did we?" Before, when everyone was traversing, they weren't sure how long each traversal would take.

When some people can no longer withstand the poison of time and the wear and tear on their souls, they begin to stop time travel.

Those who remained in the Immortal Transformation Pool noticed that the transmigrators would reappear shortly after they went down.

It won't take longer than 15 minutes.

With a wave of his hand, Fuqiu Gong sent all the heroes of the Divine Continent flying out of the Immortal Transformation Pool. Just like when they came before, they were like shooting stars, streaking across the sky, falling from the Middle Realm into the mortal world, sinking into the sea, returning to the Dragon Palace, and entering their respective souls.

When they opened their eyes, they felt as if they had been transported to another world. The dozens or hundreds of lifetimes they had traveled through before seemed to have truly become their previous lives, creating a profound sense of ambiguity.

The details are vague, but the emotions and wisdom gained through experience are profound.

With a wave of his hand, the Eight-Turn Yang God Golden Pill, which had been emitting celestial light above their heads, stopped releasing its celestial power and returned to his sleeve.

A sharp-eyed hero noticed that the Yang Shen Golden Elixir had shrunk from the size of an apple to the size of an apricot, shrinking several times over.

"It's only been half a month, not a long time." Many heroes who understood the secrets of the Xuanmen sect could calculate the total time spent traveling through time with a simple calculation.

Fuqiu Gongdao said, "Half a month ago, Yu Fengxian submitted a list to the Xingyang court."

"Oh no, could our names be all on the list?" Liu Ji exclaimed.

"What's there to be afraid of? We're already infamous rebels. The tyrannical Qin court knows that all along," Peng Yue reassured him.

Liu Ji sighed and said, "Brother, of course you don't need to be afraid. You have already rebelled. I was planning to catch the magistrate of Pei off guard! Now that the commandery is on guard, it will be difficult for me to do anything in Sishui County."

Fuqiu Gong frowned, wanting to remind him: Shouldn't you be more worried about your wife, children, parents, and brothers?

Just as he thought this, Lu Wan, who was next to Liu Laosan, exclaimed, "Oh no! Brother Ji, we don't have time to worry about Pei County anymore. If the soldiers can't find us, they'll arrest our families!"
Previously, we were only falsely accused, and even with Lord Xiao and the elders of Pei County pleading on our behalf, the magistrate of Pei still arrested my sister-in-law and my great-grandfather.

Later, seeing that we had indeed stayed in Mangdang Mountain and had not rebelled, Pei Ling released them.

Now that Grand Tutor Yu has personally submitted the list, and the Xingyang court has issued an order, the magistrate of Pei will definitely capture our family members!
This time, not only you, but I'm on the list too.

Xiahou Ying's expression changed drastically.

He hadn't gone to Mangdang Mountain to become an outlaw; he was still a clerk in the government office. This time, he had taken a long leave and was driving Liu Laosan, who had traveled a long way, to attend the anti-Qin alliance meeting.

"Lord Fuqiu, what is the current situation in Kuaiji Commandery? Has Governor Yin Tong done anything to my 'Xiang Family Village'?" Xiang Liang asked excitedly.

Fuqiu Gong pressed his hands down to quiet everyone down and said, "I don't know the specifics either."

But I can assure you that if the authorities decide to take action, someone will definitely notify your families and subordinates in advance.

"Will Grand Tutor Yu take action himself?" Jingju was still terrified.

The other heroes also panicked when they thought of the fake Grand Tutor Yu's behavior in the transmigrated world.

Fuqiu Gongdao said, "She probably won't do it herself. I've explained the reason before: killing you would cause too much karma, and she values ​​her life."

Everyone was slightly relieved.

Xiang Liang looked regretful and said, "Yin Tong has been operating in Kuaiji for many years and has considerable prestige. Although he harbors rebellious intentions against Qin, he considers himself the lord."

Now that he knows I'm attending the meeting while he himself wasn't invited, he'll surely be furious.

Fuqiu Gongdao said, "Do you think Yu Fengxian only found out today that you want to rebel against Qin?"

Many of you have already fulfilled part of your destiny and nurtured dragon veins.

Yu Fengxian reconstructed the ley lines of the Divine Land; she knew perfectly well who possessed a dragon vein, the extent of its development, and its size.

Xiang Liang exclaimed in surprise, "I've also heard about Grand Tutor Yu's reconstruction of the earth's veins, but if she knows everything, why hasn't she come after us?"

Even if we are worthless dog shit, killing us would be a huge karmic consequence, and she could report it to the authorities!

Just like now, they don't lift a finger; they just hand the list over to the Xingyang court.

After thinking for a moment, Fuqiu Gong confessed, "She once told a short story to the kings of the Ying clan."

During the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, Jiang Ziya, who possessed the Mandate of Heaven, was killed several times by the immortals invited by King Zhou of Shang.

But Jiang Taigong's destiny was not severed, and he was repeatedly resurrected after dying.

She wanted to use this story to warn the kings not to be obsessed with competing with the hidden dragon. Only by regaining the Mandate of Heaven could the fate of the Qin Dynasty be fundamentally reversed.

Therefore, she and the Xingyang court were one inside and one outside. She was busy reconstructing the earth's veins and protecting the land of China; Li Si and his group were responsible for ten years of benevolent governance, distributing benefits to the people, allowing them to rest, winning back their hearts, and then using the people's hearts to rebuild the destiny of the Qin Dynasty.

To you, the chosen ones, she only wants to intimidate and restrain you, in order to buy time to reverse fate.

As I said before, she hoped that the Central Plains would enter a state of 'peace'.

For this reason, she was even willing to tolerate the establishment of a state by opposing the king.

How could they not tolerate a hidden dragon lying dormant among the people?

Your intimidation and inaction, which you keep delaying, is exactly what she wants.

Submitting the list to the Xingyang court will only provoke you, forcing you to rebel immediately and resolutely, thus preventing her ten years of benevolent rule from being implemented.

Now that the East China Sea Anti-Qin Alliance is convened, and you have completed your time-travel training, your potential is about to be unleashed. At this point, she has no choice but to take the initiative.

After all, if the imperial court doesn't deal with you, once you all return to your homes, you won't continue to lie low, but will immediately rise up in rebellion.

Since you're all going to revolt anyway, disrupting your plans now will at least buy you more time.

No immortal would be a fool, and a quasi-Great Luo who guides destiny is even less likely to be stupid.

They were very clear about Grand Tutor Yu's plans and ideas.

This is also the main reason why they organized the "East China Sea Anti-Qin Alliance" at this time.

When Grand Tutor Yu first took office, he immediately implemented several policies, including ten years of benevolent governance and moving the capital to Xingyang, which made Chen Sheng hesitate and dare not launch the uprising.

Immortals are not stupid, nor are the heroes who rebelled against Qin; they all know how to weigh the pros and cons.

With pillars of the state like Li Si, Feng Quji, and the Meng brothers all present, and no internal turmoil within the Qin court, wouldn't rebelling be suicide?
At this time, Chen Sheng's rebel army seemed to be a force to be reckoned with in China, having restored the states of Wei and Qi, and divided the Central Plains into many war zones.

Ambitious people can analyze the situation in the Central Plains and see that the Qin Dynasty has not used its full strength.

They naturally wanted to wait and see for a while longer, until the Qin Dynasty truly showed signs of decline. For example, Peng Yue originally planned to do just that, but he was misled by Jingjing and Kongkong, which led to his hasty uprising.

If the hidden dragons just watch and do nothing, wouldn't that let Grand Tutor Yu get what he wants?
It should be noted that Hu Hai's theoretical mandate of heaven had only one year left.

Given the current situation, it seems that the Qin Dynasty could easily hold out for another three to five years.

What should have been a year-long destiny has been delayed for five years. How much will the fate change?

“Great Immortal, didn’t you say that destiny rests on our shoulders? That we are resolute and possess the potential to destroy Qin? The common people are short-sighted, concerned only with the present, and cannot bear the mandate of heaven.”

As long as we remain calm and allow Grand Tutor Yu to stall for time, and allow the Xingyang court to implement benevolent policies, it should not affect the Mandate of Heaven!

"From what you're saying now, Grand Tutor Yu only needs to win the hearts of the people and doesn't need to care about us to reverse fate?" Liu Ji asked doubtfully.

Fuqiu Gongdao said, "No, that's not what I meant. I acknowledge that the Mandate of Heaven originates from the hearts of the people, but the Mandate of Heaven is borne by those who are destined to receive it, and the hearts of the people should be guided by you, the people who are destined to receive it!"

Now I am simply explaining to you Yu Fengxian's strategy and the underlying principles behind it.

She overestimated the "current public sentiment," believing that by delaying the inevitable and winning back public support, she could restore the mandate of heaven.

If we accept her foolish ideas, will we stand on the opposite side and wholeheartedly help you fulfill your predetermined destiny?
She will certainly fail, but her reckless behavior will also ruin her original destiny.

We must uphold destiny, so naturally we must stop her.

And the destiny we are protecting is you! That's why we've gathered here today, open and honest.
