Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

Not only did Su Ji associate the chaos in the capital with the Lesser Yin God, but the deities in the City God Temple did the same.

The City God said with a heavy expression, "Logically speaking, even if a deity or immortal were to assassinate the emperor, it would be hindered by the fate of humanity and the nation... This incident should not have been caused by deities or immortals."

Humanitarian national destiny differs from ordinary incense and faith; through countless years of accumulation, it has long since transformed into a humanistic dragon vein.

If we must draw an analogy, then the Heavenly Emperor is the master of the Heavenly Way, and the Emperor is the master of the Human Way. Under the protection of the Human Way's dragon vein, immortals and gods probably can't even enter the imperial palace.

As a result, cultivators such as Demon Kings and Martial Kings can use their powerful physiques to take the heads of enemy generals among thousands of people, posing a great threat to the powerful and noble people protected by the human dragon veins. Even the emperor dares not casually lead his troops into battle.

After pondering for a moment, Su Ji thought to himself, "Could it be that the Taiyin Emperor has made a move?"

Empress Taiyin is not only a powerful being, but also has a divine kingdom within the Taiyin star, inhabited by various creatures that have ascended from ancient times to the present.

The Taiyin Divine Kingdom not only contains divine beasts with physical forms, but also powerful gods who pursue physical sainthood. Physical strength alone is not enough to break into the palace.

Just as Su Ji's thoughts were swirling in his mind, news came from the City God Temple in the prefecture, revealing a shocking truth.

It turns out that many immortals and gods went to the capital to investigate in order to find the Lesser Yin God.

Some immortals and deities personally gathered information in the capital, while others sent their disciples to the mortal realm. Some were disciples of the Xuanmen sect, while others were disciples of aristocratic families...

Unexpectedly, this investigation led the gods to discover a shocking secret.

It turns out that neither the Crown Prince nor the Second Prince were born to the Emperor; only the Third Prince was not the problem.

This was already explosive enough, but for some reason, the emperor learned of the investigation results.

Upon learning that the adulterers were none other than his trusted Commander of the Palace Guard and his younger brother, Prince Fu, the emperor was overcome with rage and fainted.

After the emperor awoke, he felt that his health was not as good as before, and he thought of his only son, the third prince.

Therefore, the emperor drafted two imperial edicts, one for the chief eunuch and the other for the prime minister.

Now, the emperor has passed away, the prime minister has been assassinated, the crown prince has occupied the capital, the second prince has disappeared, and the third prince is being protected by the Tiger Guards as he heads west. The whole country is in chaos.

If the Crown Prince wants to secure his throne, he must not only deal with the Third Prince, who has the support of the Tiger Guards, but also the Second Prince.

Therefore, the Crown Prince ordered the Commander of the Palace Guards to send people to search for the Second Prince who had disappeared in the capital, dispatched the Dragon Guards to hunt down the Third Prince, and used the connections of the Crown Prince's faction to mobilize the local troops along the way to intercept the Third Prince.

With the imperial edict in hand and supported by many officials, the Third Prince traveled westward until he reached the territory of Yuzhou.

At this point, if one were to go further west, one would be leaving the central region of the world. The Third Prince then arrived at Dazhen Prefecture in Yuzhou, intending to use it as a base to contend with the Crown Prince.

In less than half a month, many generals from the surrounding areas brought their troops to surrender, and Yuzhou quickly became one of the political centers of the world.

According to royal custom, after the emperor's death, one must wait half a month before ascending the throne.

As a result, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince ascended the throne at the end of April, and Yuzhou was also renamed Xijing.

Just as the world was in chaos, with the help of the East-West Chamber of Commerce, Constable Li Hui finally found evidence that the young nobleman had abducted a woman and murdered the people.

At this time, the young nobleman's maternal grandfather was in Tokyo. Even though he had the intention to support the Western Emperor, he had become a subject of the Eastern Emperor.

Li Hui, no longer burdened by such worries, directly exposed the young master's crimes to his superiors and even reported it to the prefect.

However, what Li Hui didn't know was that the Western Emperor was currently short-handed and was about to employ nobles and relatives of the emperor. The young nobleman's father had already been recommended as the Protector General, responsible for the defense of Yuzhou Xijing.

"The abduction of a woman and the murder of a civilian... This case is probably not suitable for trial at this time!"

That being said, since Li Hui has already reported the case, it still needs to be investigated.

However, when the case officially began to be heard, important evidence suddenly disappeared, and even the witnesses suddenly changed their statements on the spot.

Even when the woman who was robbed was summoned, the couple who ran the oil mill stated in court that they did not know her.

In an instant, the case to which Li Hui had poured countless efforts became a joke. Although he was not suspended from his post, his future career was over.

Li Hui found the oil mill couple with an incredulous look on his face. Besides feeling guilty, he also saw happiness in their eyes.

Obviously, how could they not recognize their own daughter?

However, their daughter has now become the concubine of the son of the Protector General. If they were to convict the young master as Li Hui thought, not only would they not fare well, but their daughter would also lose her innocence.

As for the death of the swill carrier, the couple at the oil mill felt some sympathy, but they didn't have much interaction with each other... Their only sense of guilt was towards Li Hui, the constable who had kindly helped them.

After leaving the oil mill, Li Hui became completely dejected.

He never imagined that the justice he upheld would be so insignificant in the face of power and profit, and that his position as a constable would not only fail to help him but would become an obstacle.

So, a few days later, Li Hui resigned from his position as head constable and returned to Jinfeng County with the East-West merchant caravan.

They did not encounter any assassins on the way. For the young nobleman at this time, killing Li Hui would not only bring no benefit, but would also arouse the prefect's disgust. It would be better to keep Li Hui alive and let him be shrouded in the shadow of criticism and ridicule.

"There's nothing wrong with becoming a guard for the Chamber of Commerce..."

With the world in chaos, Li Gong, the spirit guide of Jinfeng County, did not want his son Li Hui to get involved in the struggle between the two emperors. He believed that being in the caravan would be safer and freer for him.

The struggle between the two emperors, East and West, gradually escalated over time. By July, both sides had suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, and the battle lines were gradually stretched out.

Just then, Prince Fu suddenly raised an army in his southern fiefdom, produced an imperial edict, and supported the second prince as emperor.

Indeed, it was Prince Fu who assassinated the prime minister, and he made some changes to the contents of the document.

The Crown Prince's identity as the son of the Commander of the Palace Guards was made public, while the Third Prince was given the title of the son of the Commander of the Tiger Guards. Only the Second Prince was the late Emperor's only heir.

Suddenly, public opinion surged again, and a three-way power struggle between the Eastern Emperor, the Western Emperor, and the Southern Emperor was formed.

Many immortals and gods were also unsure whether the Second Prince was the reincarnation of the Lesser Yin God or the Third Prince, but he was definitely not the Crown Prince.

"If the Second Prince is the reincarnation of the Lesser Yin God, then killing him is fine. But if the Third Prince is the reincarnation of the Lesser Yin God, then we're in real trouble!"

The Third Prince is the Emperor's only son. If he is truly the reincarnation of the Lesser Yin God, the immortals and gods not only cannot punish him, but must also protect the Third Prince's status as the Human Emperor.

Just then, Su Ji finally adjusted the five elements of the Bright Moon Spirit Realm to a state of harmony. However, he did not immediately activate the Fairy Realm Project. Instead, he went to find Zhang Xiaolian.

Nearly three years have passed since Zhang Xiaolian became a high-level cultivator, and all she has done is cultivate.

"Golden Toad God, I have now comprehended the three Lesser Dao Fruits of the Real Dream World. With just a few days of preparation, I can use the aura fluctuations during my ascension in the Bright Moon Immortal Realm as a cover to completely master these three Lesser Dao Fruits!" (End of Chapter)
