Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 312 Doctor Chen Xuan

At this moment, Yang Jian looked thoughtful, and finally asked Chen Xuan, "Ancestor, if the King does as they say and kills the treacherous minister and eliminates the evil concubine, what will they do? Will they withdraw their troops?"

Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "Do you think Emperor Xin, as the human emperor, would bow down to a traitor? At that time, all that awaited Emperor Xin was his own suicide."

At this moment, Bigan finally understood the key point and sighed, saying, "Your Highnesses have been tricked by the Chan Sect and will surely die on the battlefield."

"And the king will be forced to end his own life, and then the Shang Dynasty will have no heir. At that time, all the feudal lords will jointly recommend Ji Chang, and he will rightfully become the new ruler of the world."

After hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "As expected of Bi Gan, who has a brilliant mind. Indeed, this is the plan of the Chan Sect."

"That's why Yang Jian followed his master Yu Ding's instructions and had Huang Feihu go through the motions, making as much of a commotion as possible."

"After all, as long as Yin Jiao and Yin Hong are not captured by Di Xin, the Chan Sect's plan must be changed, or even Yin Jiao and Yin Hong may be taken away directly."

"Because they cannot allow Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to reach Donglu, otherwise Dongbo Hou Jiang Huan Chu General could legitimately send troops to avenge his daughter."

"At that time, with Princes Yin Jiao and Yin Hong in the hands of Marquis Jiang Huanchu of the East, he would become the leader of the rebellious lords in the world. This is not in line with the interests of the Chan Sect."

Huang Feihu nodded in agreement and said, "Does the Azure Lotus Saint mean to send the two princes to Eastern Lu, so that the Chan Sect will have a headache?"

Bigan shook his head. "It's impossible. The Chan Sect will not allow the two princes to reach Donglu smoothly."

“I even suspect that they will use some tricks to make the two princes feel that if they don’t leave with Guang Chengzi and the others, they will die at the hands of the king.”

At this moment, Di Xin suddenly spoke up and asked Chen Xuan, "Sage Qinglian, what if I send someone now to bring Yin Jiao and Yin Hong back?"

"Then not only will I not send them to the execution ground, but I will also let them know why I banished their mother to the cold palace. What will the disciples of the Chan Sect do then?"

These were the words Chen Xuan most wanted to hear when he arrived at the Xiande Hall, spoken by Emperor Xin. So he smiled and nodded.

The decision to entrust the Investiture of the Gods to Yu Ding Zhenren was not made by the Three Pure Ones, but by Chen Xuan.

According to the original plan, it wouldn't be long before Master Yuding entered the court to serve as the Imperial Preceptor, and then assisted Emperor Xin in dealing with the upcoming events.

However, to Chen Xuan's surprise, he had revealed the direction of the Investiture of the Gods to Jade Cauldron Immortal. This, in turn, made him somewhat hesitant and restrained.

All of Yu Ding Zhenren's plans were not intended to change the Investiture of the Gods from the beginning. Rather, they were intended to break the deadlock step by step, following the trajectory of the Investiture of the Gods calamity.

While that might not necessarily result in a loss, the victory would certainly not be particularly spectacular. This was not the outcome Chen Xuan desired.

Otherwise, Chen Xuan wouldn't have come to Chaoge City in person. After all, Chen Xuan didn't want the Investiture of the Gods, which is so much admired by fans of the prehistoric era, to have any imperfections.

As for replacing Jade Cauldron Immortal, Chen Xuan had considered it. He felt that the final outcome would likely be the same.

He might as well go there himself and get everyone to cooperate with him to create the most perfect Investiture of the Gods in Chen Xuan's mind.

Of course, Di Xin and the others were unaware of these things, but seeing Chen Xuan nod, Di Xin said, "In that case, I will have someone bring those two rebellious sons back."

After Di Xin finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Huang Feihu. Huang Feihu was already preparing to go outside to lead his troops and bring Yin Jiao and Yin Hong back.

However, Chen Xuan spoke up, saying, "Yang Jian, go and take a look. If you encounter Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi, teach them a lesson they won't forget." Yang Jian agreed and transformed into a streak of light, heading directly towards the outside of Xiande Hall.

After Yang Jian left, Di Xin finally came to his senses. He immediately gestured for Chen Xuan to enter and said with a guilty expression.

"It is my fault that I have kept the Azure Lotus Saint standing for so long. Please, Azure Lotus Saint, take a seat."

When Di Xin invited him to take the main seat, Chen Xuan did not stand on ceremony. Instead, he sat down in the main seat and began to speak.

"My arrival in Chaoge City must not be known to anyone other than you. And from now on, do not call me the Azure Lotus Saint."

"Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives overhears this, my presence in Chaoge City will be leaked. At that time, that person in Zixiao Palace will probably arrive soon."

"Therefore, from now on, I will use the name Chen Xuan. I am a junior official promoted by Bi Gan."

Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, Di Xin and the others naturally dared not refuse. However, they felt that addressing Chen Xuan by his name inevitably carried some unsettling connotations.

To this, Chen Xuan simply waved his hand and said, "What you call me is not important. What matters is where you place me in your hearts."

"If I am a saint in your hearts, what difference does it make what I am called? If I am a villain in your hearts, what use is it to call me a saint?"

Chen Xuan's words caused everyone to completely let go of their last shred of resolve.

At this moment, Chen Xuan had already stood up from his seat and walked towards Bi Gan's side.

When Chen Xuan arrived at Bi Gan's side, both his appearance and clothing had changed.

Seeing this, Bigan couldn't help but smile and say, "Doctor Chen, please take a seat to my left."

When Bigan uttered these words, everyone present was taken aback. They thought to themselves that Bigan's words were rather disrespectful to Chen Xuan.

At this moment, Bigan spoke up directly, saying, "Your Majesty, this is how the Azure Lotus Saint will appear in public from now on."

"At the same time, we also kept in mind that when the Azure Lotus Saint appears in his true form, we must not show the slightest disrespect."

"But when he appears with this face, he is Chen Xuan, a high-ranking official of our Great Shang Dynasty. We can no longer treat Chen Xuan with the same respect as the Azure Lotus Saint."

"Otherwise, if even the King treats a mere junior official with utmost respect, who wouldn't realize that this junior official is no ordinary person?"

Once Bi Gan uttered these words, everyone finally understood what he meant. Even Chen Xuan couldn't help but nod with a smile.

He thought to himself that before Bi Gan lost his cleverness, he was indeed a very shrewd and resourceful person.

Chen Xuan couldn't help but wonder to himself if he were to replace Emperor Yi and make the Shang Dynasty even more prosperous and powerful than it is now.

Of course, the problem is assuming there was no great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods. Otherwise, even if Fuxi were to become the king of the Shang Dynasty, the Shang Dynasty would inevitably be engulfed in war.

Chen Xuan then asked about Di Xin's plans for the future. Upon learning of Di Xin's plans, Chen Xuan was quite shocked.
