Honghuang: Senior Brother of the Chan Sect, I am Guangchengzi

Chapter 254: The Emperor Returns to the Netherworld

Guangchengzi never thought of ending Chiyou's life with his own hands, because this was Xuanyuan's greatest enemy, not his nor anyone else's. If others intervened without authorization, changes would surely occur in the future.

Therefore, Xuanyuan must personally kill Chiyou before all this can end.

The white crane was extremely fast. When it first appeared, it was no bigger than a sesame seed. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of them and transformed into a fair-skinned boy holding a flower basket with two swords in the basket.

The boy bowed to the twelve immortals and said, "Bai He greets all the senior brothers. I came here today to offer this gift to wish you all to kill Chi You."

The person who came was the White Crane Boy. After the White Crane Boy finished speaking, he immediately threw the flower basket in his hand upwards. The two swords in the basket turned slightly and immediately fell into Xuanyuan's hands.

Xuanyuan picked up the two swords. He was not interested in one of them, but instead stared at the other one.

The sword is three feet long, with two sides of the blade, one side is engraved with the sun, moon and stars, the other side is painted with mountains, rivers and plants. The hilt is also divided into two ends, one side is written with fishing, animal husbandry and farming, and the other side is written with the teachings of saints.

At this moment, Xuanyuan held the sword in his hand. He did not feel that the sword was some kind of sacred killing object. Instead, he felt that the sword carried an indescribable compassion, as if it was not born to take lives, but to educate all living beings.

"Xuanyuan Sword!"

For some reason, Xuanyuan blurted out these three words, and the sword shook. A tassel spontaneously appeared on the hilt, and a jade plate was tied to the tassel. Three words were written on the plate: Xuanyuan Sword.

After seeing it, Guang Chengzi clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This is a good sword, and it also has a good name. Disciple, kill Chi You quickly, so that this matter can be put to an end."

Others did not understand, but Guangchengzi knew the origin of these two swords. They were the Tuwu Swords that he had obtained from the Heavenly Palace before.

However, he asked the great master Xuandu to help him refine it, so it turned into these two swords.

With the Tuwu Sword in hand, Xuanyuan could naturally use it to kill Chiyou. After all, even the twelve ancient witches could not withstand the power of this sword.

Xuanyuan held the Xuanyuan Sword and felt that the sword was in perfect harmony with him and he could not let it go. After hearing this, he did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward and slashed at Chiyou with several sword strikes.

Only a few crackling sounds were heard, and Chi You's limbs and head were cut off, and he was divided into six parts.

But even so, Chi You did not die. He was still staring at the sky in silence, without any fluctuation.

Xuanyuan was helpless about this. After all, he had already used all his means. He had no choice but to look to Guangchengzi, hoping that his master could give him a solution.

However, Guangchengzi didn't have any better solution. After all, after cultivating to the level of Chiyou, nothing could completely wipe him out.

Therefore, he had to personally take the six parts of the corpse away and seal them in various places between heaven and earth. Only then would it be over.

Chi You was no longer a threat, and the battle for the emperor of mankind was finally over. The immortals cheered and held a grand event for nine days and nine nights in the Youxiong tribe.

Finally, they all escorted Xuanyuan to the Lieshan tribe. Under the watchful eyes of the immortals and gods, Shennong offered sacrifices to their ancestors and the saints in heaven, and officially passed the position of co-leader to Xuanyuan.

Afterwards, he boarded a carriage pulled by a thousand dragon horses and returned to Huoyun Cave. Xuanyuan officially became the leader of the human race.

After becoming the co-leader, the first thing Xuanyuan did was to completely wipe out the Jiuli tribe. He searched everywhere but did not leave a single witch alive.

As for the human tribes that had defected to the Jiuli tribe, he did not kill them. After all, they were not members of the Wu tribe, and each served his own master. There was no need to massacre their own people and ruin their reputation.

So Xuanyuan let them replace the name of Jiuli, and demoted them to the border area where the Jiuli tribe once lived. This was the end of it.

After consulting Guangchengzi's opinion, Xuanyuan revered him as the Holy Master of the Human Emperor. Because Guangchengzi used a pair of male and female swords to force Xingtian back, he was also known as the ancestor of swordsmanship.

Also, because Guangchengzi had often traveled with the Great Master Xuandu among the human race, and the Great Master Xuandu had often listened to Guangchengzi's advice, they were seen by some interested people and some rumors began to spread.

Finally, due to false rumors, Guangchengzi was called an incarnation of the sage Laozi. Otherwise, why would the great master Xuandu be so obedient?
After hearing this, Guangchengzi and Master Xuandu just smiled and didn't take it to heart. They were both open-minded people and would not get angry over such a small matter.

As for the other immortals who helped Xuanyuan, they also obtained corresponding things, were revered as gods, and enjoyed the fortune of the human race. They left the human race with smiles on their faces.

After pacifying these immortals and gods, Xuanyuan officially began his conquests in order to completely unify the entire human race, which inevitably included confrontation with the Jiejiao immortals.

After all, these Jiejiao immortals have been doing well in those human tribes for many years. Today, they are suddenly asked to submit to others, and they are all very dissatisfied.

However, after Guangchengzi hung his male and female swords on Xuanyuan's mount, no one dared to obstruct him. Everyone had to humbly let Xuanyuan take away their totems, and finally they were branded with the mark of the Yellow Emperor.

However, Xuanyuan didn't want to waste time on these small border countries, so these marks were merely symbolic, and he didn't even send anyone to garrison there, which also made these Jiejiao immortals feel relieved.

After that, Xuanyuan marched towards the southeast, northwest, and northeast. Wherever there were human beings, they could not escape Xuanyuan's conquest and had to submit to the Youxiong tribe. After subduing the last small tribe, Xuanyuan felt that his destiny had come to an end and he could leave the human race and enjoy the tranquility in the Fire Cloud Cave.

However, he did not want to plunge the human race into chaos again, so at the advice of his five wives, he began to expand his harem, using the yin energy of the women to temporarily suppress his own yang energy, while he himself continued to work hard for the human race.

Guangchengzi was also happy to see this happen, so he asked Tianhuo Taoist, who had just returned to the Sun Star, to issue an edict, meaning that Xuanyuan should manage the stars for him.

With this decree, the luck of the stars descended, which could be considered as temporarily suppressing these lucks.

The great gods did not suspect anything and thought that the Lord of the Sun wanted to make friends with humans, so he came down to help. After all, even the Heavenly Court had taken action, so it was nothing for the Lord of the Sun to step forward.

Because Guangchengzi did not reveal this, Xuanyuan also felt the same way. And since he did not want to return to Huoyun Cave so soon, he also helped Tianhuo Taoist manage the stars.

Looking at the many ancient stars outside the Sun, Xuanyuan divided them into twenty-eight constellations, seven of which were continents, named after the four sacred beasts of heaven and earth, namely Qinglong Continent, Zhuque Continent, etc.

In addition, there are the Three Enclosures of Heaven and Earth surrounding the Ziwei Star, the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, and the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper, all of which are stars divided by Xuanyuan.

Just at this time, Yinglong came and asked Xuanyuan to help the dragon clan. Out of the friendship in the past, Xuanyuan also made this trip.

However, due to Guangchengzi's previous proposal, Xuanyuan did not easily give in to Zhulong's request. Only after the other party agreed to set a time for the human race did Xuanyuan agree to make the dragon clan the national beast of the human race.

But in addition to the Dragon Clan, Xuanyuan had also promised the Phoenix Clan long before, so the Dragon Clan had to be subordinate to the Phoenix Clan, which made them very angry, but they could do nothing about it.

With the help of Zhulong, Xuanyuan officially set the time. In order to express gratitude to the demon clan for their help, Xuanyuan also allowed the demon clan to join in setting the time.

One day is divided into twelve hours, represented by the twelve previously determined zodiac animals, starting with the rat and ending with the pig, and the divisions rotate in this way.

Then thirty days make a month, and there are twelve months in total. This is to commemorate the help of the twelve Moon Rabbit Princesses; and twelve months make a year, and this year is to commemorate the repentance of Prince Jinwu.

In order to formally resolve all disputes, Xuanyuan once again borrowed the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler from Guangchengzi. He meditated on this immortal ruler day and night, and finally figured out the weights and measures.

With these two things, no one would be able to cheat in the future. To be fair, Xuanyuan required every tribe to put down these two things in the square or public place.

Anyone who is dissatisfied with the results of a transaction can use these two items to determine fairness. Because they are placed by the tribe, they are absolutely accurate and are also called fair scale and fair balance.

After doing all this, Xuanyuan felt that destiny could not be stopped, so he begged for mercy from Guangchengzi, intending to abdicate the position of co-leader to someone else.

Guangchengzi naturally agreed to Xuanyuan's request, and even led the Twelve Immortals to watch the ceremony in person. The Three Sovereigns had already finished, and the next was for the Five Emperors to choose.

Because Jiejiao lost first, the next three emperors were taught by the Western Sect first.

Guangchengzi was also very familiar with who the first emperor's teacher was. He was Jie Yin's first disciple, the Medicine Master.

The Five Emperors are not like the Three Sovereigns. The Five Emperors are assistant emperors. The real decision is made by the Three Sovereigns. Therefore, the saints do not care much about them, and let their disciples decide who will be the one.

The first emperor chosen by the pharmacist was the grandson of Xuanyuan, named Zhuanxu.

The reason why Yaoshi chose Zhuanxu as the emperor was naturally to save trouble. After all, with the name of Xuanyuan above, it would be very easy for Zhuanxu to succeed to the throne.

Watching Xuanyuan lead his many wives, concubines, and children to kowtow to him three times and nine times, and then get on the chariot pulled by a thousand dragon horses and leave, Guangchengzi sighed slightly, feeling a little complicated.

Then he turned to the pharmacist and said, "Since you have already chosen the emperor, I will not stay here any longer. Please stay. I have something important to do, so I will leave first."

The pharmacist couldn't stop him after seeing this, so he nodded and said, "In that case, I won't send you off."

After the two said goodbye, Guangchengzi immediately led the immortals, the mother goddess Huaxu, and the soul-guiding messenger Jingwei to the underworld.

"The time for mourning is over. Now we start to settle accounts with the Heavenly Court!"

Guangchengzi's cultivation was extremely high, and he had long since gotten rid of these ordinary emotional troubles, not to mention that he had already entered the sixth level of Hunyuan at this moment. He was only waiting for an opportunity to kill the second corpse, and naturally he was even more detached.

After hearing his shout, these gods of the underworld, who were feeling a little sentimental, immediately came to their senses and followed Guangchengzi's steps, returning directly to the underworld.

Seeing that the immortal light from heaven had begun to gather in the underworld, Guangchengzi sneered, and then without hesitation, he immediately led all the immortals to kill towards the immortal palace in the sky.
