Investiture of the Gods: I am Bigan, the Master of Conspiracy

Chapter 56: Luoshen asks for advice, Yuanshi takes action!
After the court meeting, Yin Ziyu returned to the ancestral temple with Luoshen. At this moment, Luoshen's beautiful eyes were full of amazement.

"Brother Ziyu's plan is truly remarkable. It's truly astonishing that two ginseng fruits can cause three families to fall apart. Seeing this, Concubine Mi is a little confused. I hope Brother Ziyu can explain the reason behind this to Concubine Mi. Why is there such an incredible effect?"

The Goddess of Luo River is about 130,000 years old, and now she affectionately calls Yin Ziyu "Brother Ziyu".

Quietly, the name has been changed.

Yin Ziyu did not hide it. After all, the main reason why he brought Mi Fei in and formed a community of interests was because Fuxi was the only non-human teaching among the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Fuxi has no other bloodline, only this one daughter. Now the Emperor of Cheng Tang's lineage is in the Fire Cloud Cave with the Xuanyuan lineage, so a fight is inevitable.

It was only after King Cheng Tang severed Zhuanxu's connection to the sky and the earth that the human race achieved its present glory.

Moreover, the Xuanyuan lineage and even the Xianjiao also wanted to take action against Fuxi, so they were naturally allies of interests.

"These three families are the most prosperous branches of the Xuanyuan lineage. Ever since Your Majesty ascended the throne and issued the decree of ascension, all three families have sensed Your Majesty's ambitions. Forced by circumstances, they must have believed Your Majesty was targeting them. While they have united, they are inevitably at odds, with cracks already forming."

Luoshen frowned slightly and asked, "Where is the crack? Brother Ziyu, please tell me in detail."

Yin Ziyu nodded slightly and said slowly, "Ji Chang has always considered himself a direct descendant of the Xuanyuan lineage. Because he did not change his surname to Ji, many princes across the world recognized him. But this made Chong Houhu secretly dissatisfied. The Xuanyuan lineage is prosperous and powerful, and can be said to have the power of half a Human Emperor. In the long run, if someone can one day overthrow our Great Shang and ascend to the throne to become the Human Emperor, it will naturally be a direct descendant of Xuanyuan. Only the direct descendants of Xuanyuan have the ability to rule the Xuanyuan lineage. How could Chong Houhu be willing to accept this? He believes that he is the orthodox direct descendant of Xuanyuan and is unwilling to give up his position."

Luoshen listened, looking thoughtful, and nodded in agreement, "Brother Ziyu is absolutely right. This court has carefully examined the recent theory of the Human Emperor as the primary lineage, and Chonghouhu has proven that he is indeed a direct descendant. However, Ji Chang's surname is Ji, and based solely on his surname, he has always been a direct descendant of the Xuanyuan clan. This is what has caused Chonghouhu to feel resentment and dissatisfaction."

The direct lineage of Xuanyuan represents a huge benefit, but Ji Chang is gradually building up his power. How can Chonghouhu tolerate this?

In the final analysis, if the Chan sect chose Ji Chang, it would create momentum for him, and creating momentum for him would inevitably cause dissatisfaction from Chong Houhu.

However, Chonghouhu currently does not know that the Chan sect has chosen Ji Chang.

Yin Ziyu continued, "One of the strategies is that the ginseng fruit is a rare treasure, its value goes without saying. By giving it legitimacy and recognition of achievements, and placing it before the eyes of the princes of the world, forcing them to compete for the title of the first bloodline, this is also a struggle within the Xuanyuan lineage for the future throne of the Emperor. By exposing the secret rivalry between Chong Houhu and Ji Chang to the public, they will be unable to retreat."

Upon hearing this, Luo Shen's beautiful eyes were filled with amazement. "So, Chong Hou Hu is already furious and will naturally not let go. Therefore, there's no way we can move forward or retreat together. Even though he knows your majesty's strategy of division, he'll still fight for it. As long as one person fights, there's no room for maneuver."

Yin Ziyu nodded. "That's right. The so-called debate over merit is no simple matter. Its deeper meaning lies in leading to a reinterpretation of historical legitimacy, thereby shaking or even negating the foundation built by the Xuanyuan lineage in past history. However, once Chonghouhu became the head of the bloodline, Ji Chang had no way out. The various princes did not understand the mystery and were bound to argue!"

Luo Shen suddenly laughed and said, "Back then, that little prince proposed that the Jiuli also belong to the human race. Was it Brother Ziyu who arranged it?"

Yin Ziyu smiled and said, "Exactly. Naturally, they will introduce it to the human race, forming Ji Chang to provoke the denial of Xuanyuan's achievements."

After hearing this, Luo Shen exclaimed: "It's truly wonderful!"

At this moment, Luo Shen also bowed in submission.

Among the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Huangdi's power became increasingly powerful, and Shennong also had a direct lineage, while Fuxi's voice became increasingly reduced, and a factual contradiction was formed. Luoshen was naturally happy about the dismantling of Xuanyuan's foundation.

This is equivalent to reducing the pressure on the father and improving his luck and voice in the human race.

Yin Ziyu continued to explain, "Secondly, with all the princes of the world gathered at this time, this strategy aims to closely bind individual destiny with collective destiny. In this way, the ginseng fruit becomes a must-win for all parties, as it represents the belonging of the collective will. Obtaining it can unite the people and the destiny of a region, and even rule the world for the Xuanyuan lineage. After all, they all hope that the future Emperor will come from their own lineage."

"Thirdly, the Great Shang has long faced pressure from the vast Yellow Emperor clan. If such a large clan wishes to challenge the Human Emperor, it will inevitably elect a leader. Bloodline is a key constraint in this process. E Chongyu chose to commit suicide, firstly due to his stubborn and irritable temperament, and secondly, because he was deeply constrained by his bloodline and committed suicide after his failure. It is also because of this that we have opened up the southern border and the possibility of communicating with the Jiuli in the future."

After hearing this, Luoshen was filled with emotion and praised sincerely, "Brother Ziyu has a great plan. Every detail is interconnected and every step is carefully planned. The whole world and human nature are all contained in it. Mi Fei has truly been amazed and impressed today."

Yin Ziyu further explained, "Fellow Daoist, you're too kind. This plot, while seemingly motivated solely by two ginseng fruits, is actually about transforming personal competition into a fierce contest among three factions. From a battle of bloodlines to a contest of achievements, it ultimately escalates into a struggle for the right to interpret history. Ultimately, what we're aiming for is humanity's right to interpret history. Only by firmly grasping this right can we truly break free from its shackles. Without dismantling the Yellow Emperor's lineage's foundation within the human race, there's no way we can gain this right."

After hearing this, Luo Shen was stunned: "The human race's right to interpret? What does this mean?"

Yin Ziyu nodded. "The human race has the right to interpret. Originally, the human race was supposed to be the same lineage as the ancient human race. But after the Battle of Zhulu, the Xuanyuan lineage took control of the human race's right to interpret, defining the rules, laws, and right and wrong that the human race should abide by. Now, this plan allows us to define what the human race should be like in the future."

At this time, above Kunlun, Yuanshi Tianzun sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, quietly watching everything in Chaoge.

At this moment, the arrogance displayed by Emperor Xin in Chaoge City made Yuanshi Tianzun feel angry.

"How dare you, a brat, disobey the order of the saints!"

Even an ant dares to follow Di Jun's path and use his great luck to compete with the saint.

The order of saints cannot tolerate any blasphemy.

Seeing his master's anger, the Immortal Nanji, standing nearby, also reacted with a touch of indignation. "Master, this Emperor Xin is truly incredibly arrogant! He dares to attempt to change the established order of humanity. Such actions are undoubtedly a blatant challenge to the authority of the Saints. Master, will you personally descend upon Chaoge and punish this audacious Emperor Xin?"

Yuanshi Tianzun glanced at Nanji Xianweng and said, "Nanji, this Emperor Xin is extremely meticulous in his actions. His actions may seem arrogant, but he never acts in a disregarded manner. If I rashly go there in person out of anger, wouldn't I be known as a bully and a shameless person?"

Yuanshi Tianzun naturally saw it very clearly.

How can a saint give up his reputation for such a small matter?

To the Sage Yuanshi, this was like a cricket fight, a cricket biting through its string to try to fly free. Upon hearing this, the Immortal Nanji asked, "Master, the human race is in a state of utter chaos right now. The Southern Marquis' lineage is no longer relevant in balancing Emperor Xin. Furthermore, the Northern Marquis and Ji Chang are estranged over their bloodline legitimacy. Consequently, the three factions of princes who were once supposed to restrain Emperor Xin are no longer able to effectively constrain him. Furthermore, Emperor Xin possesses the aura of the Human Emperor and enjoys his protection. Without the personal presence of a Sage, no one else can control him!"

Yuanshi Tianzun pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "The great calamity of the Conferred Gods is imminent, and will arrive within a few years. We must not act rashly at this time. If I act unreasonably against Emperor Xin, Tongtian will surely intervene. Furthermore, Nuwa will not sit idly by. If I do, the Conferred Gods will be advanced, and my plans will be almost useless. As for the matter of the three families, you should quickly return to the human race and replace Chong Houhu's brother Chong Heihu with his younger brother. Then, try to mediate and bridge the rift between the two families."

Upon hearing this, Nanji Xianweng said respectfully, "Disciple will obey Master's orders and will go and make arrangements immediately. I will definitely not let Master down!"

No matter what, Xuanyuan is the grandson of Yuanshi Tianzun and the disciple of Guangchengzi. The Xuanyuan lineage belongs to the destiny of the Chan sect, so we must respond immediately.

After he finished speaking, the figure of the Immortal of the South Pole flashed and turned into a stream of light. He instantly disappeared in the main hall of the Yuxu Palace and headed straight for Chaoge!

Chong Houhu's younger brother, Chong Heihu is also one of the chess pieces of the Chan Sect.

Chong Heihu has been practicing under a Jiejiao immortal since he was young. He uses two axes as weapons, has a magic weapon, an iron-beaked eagle, a mount, a fire-eyed golden-eyed beast, and three thousand elite flying tiger soldiers!

After coming down the mountain from the place where the Jiejiao immortals practiced, he was appointed by his brother as the Marquis of Caozhou, one of the eight hundred princes.

Although he appears to be a disciple of Jiejiao, he is actually a hidden pawn of Chenjiao.

Otherwise, when the gods were canonized, he was given such a high position. This is the Emperor Zhaosheng of Nanyue Hengshan!

I didn't want to use this chess piece, but at this time the gap between the three princes has already been formed. Only by using thunder-like means and killing Chong Houhu can the gap between the two families be bridged.

Outside the city of Chaoge, in the Beibohou camp, the atmosphere was depressing and gloomy.

Chong Heihu's face was filled with anxiety and resentment. He quickly walked up to Chong Houhu, his tone tinged with reproach: "Brother, we shouldn't have rashly fought over the ginseng fruit in the court this time. It caused such a huge rift between our three families and even forced E Chongyu to death. Now, our Xuanyuan alliance is almost crumbling!"

Chong Houhu loved this younger brother the most. With a gentle expression, he gently soothed him, "Don't worry, dear brother. I know what's going on. I've eaten the ginseng fruit, and even attaining Daluo in the future isn't impossible. Furthermore, Ji Chang has long claimed to be a direct descendant of the Xuanyuan clan. How could I possibly accept that? Now I've already secured the title of direct descendant. Regardless, the princes of the world have witnessed that the Beibohou lineage is the direct descendant of the Holy Emperor. This is all worth it."

Chong Heihu frowned slightly, still feeling something was wrong. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Brother, the situation is delicate right now. It would be better for us to meet with Xibo Hou Jichang, at least to ease the tension with Xibo Hou's faction."

Upon hearing this, Chong Houhu immediately waved his hand, a hint of displeasure on his face: "No! Ji Chang has looked down on me for a long time, how can I let him see me!"

Seeing his brother's firm attitude, Chong Heihu had no choice but to turn around and return to his tent.

Chong Heihu had just stepped into the tent and had not yet sat down when a dazzling white light suddenly flashed, and the Immortal of the South Pole seemed to appear out of thin air and landed steadily in the tent.

Chong Heihu was horrified when he saw this. He quickly stood up and saluted, "Master Immortal, how did you get here?"

Although Chong Heihu became a disciple of Jiejiao, he is still a minor immortal after all, but with the cultivation level of a Xuanxian.

The human race today has a completely different respect for immortals than it did later on, but who is the Immortal of the South Pole? He is a true Golden Immortal.

Nanji Xianweng's expression was solemn, his eyes like torches as he stared directly at Chong Heihu. He said in a deep voice, "Emperor Xin is becoming increasingly arrogant, and has now nearly caused the Xuanyuan lineage to fall apart. He has even shaken the very foundation of the Xuanyuan lineage. If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous. As of now, only you can step forward and turn the tide."

Chong Heihu naturally understood the seriousness of this: "Heihu naturally knows, but as a disciple of Jiejiao, I dare not say more rashly. Moreover, my status is humble, and it is useless to say more. Please explain clearly, Immortal. Heihu is willing to listen to your instructions."

Nanji Xianweng looked at Chong Heihu and said, "Only if you replace Chong Houhu and become Beibohou can the two families reconcile and stabilize the foundation of the Xuanyuan lineage. Your brother Chong Houhu is impulsive, short-sighted, greedy, and even competes with Ji Chang. He is no longer suitable for this important task. He cannot stay."

Chong Heihu sighed deeply, his face showing an awkward expression: "Master, my brother has always been very fond of me. After returning from the mountain, he immediately appointed me as the Marquis of Cao State. Now I am asking you to... I really can't bear it."

Nanji Xianweng's eyes were like lightning as he stared at Chong Heihu and asked, "Do you intend to watch the foundation of the Xuanyuan lineage crumble? You shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the Xuanyuan bloodline and continuing the orthodoxy of the human race. You must not let a moment of family affection make you miss the big picture!"

Chong Heihu was torn between his conscience and his desires, his brows furrowed, and he pondered for a long time.

Finally, Chong Heihu looked solemn and nodded slowly. At this moment, he made an extremely difficult decision.

The sacrifice in Chaoge ended under the leadership of Emperor Xin.

The princes from all sides set out on their journey home one after another with mixed feelings.

At this time, Chonghouhu was in a good mood on his way back. He even planned how to build momentum after his return so that the Beibohou lineage could completely stabilize the orthodoxy of the Xuanyuan lineage!

The Beibohou army advanced slowly along the winding road, raising a cloud of dust.

While Chong Houhu was thinking about the affairs of Chaoge, he saw countless fairy lights shining in the sky around the road.

Thousands of people killed them instantly, and in a moment, all of Chonghouhu's men were surrounded.

When Chong Houhu's personal army saw this, they rushed over immediately!

"Oh no! Mutiny! Protect the Marquis!"
