Bearing the blue sky

Chapter 243 The matter is settled

"————Zhu Ge saw through their scheme, and using the Six Paths Valley as a base, he summoned more than a dozen geniuses from the 'List of the Gods and the State,' and also contacted various cities and tribes in the Red River Prefecture to jointly lay a net of heaven and earth."

However, this statement sent chills down the spines of countless people.

"Is Redmi the mastermind behind this?"

"I actually cheered because he showed up?"

"So that's how it is! So that 'Redmi Master' was trying to trick us!"

Countless cities were in an uproar.

They may remember what happened today for the rest of their lives!

Even countless people still want to————

Could it be that the plague, insect swarms, and floods were all part of Red Rice Immortal's conspiracy?

As a result, countless people cursed and swore, while others cried out in anguish.

The scheme of the Redmi Master is obvious to any smart person.

"In this battle, Zhu Ge, at the second realm, fought against three great beings. The formation crumbled and was rebuilt; he bled to death and was reborn. The Wood Daoist ignited his nascent soul to ward off the plague; the five sorcerers used the Five Elements Emperor Jiang's Heaven-Slicing Hand to sever the evil Red Rice Immortal; Zhu Sisi swallowed the Dragon Pearl to break the root of the Red River Dragon Python. In the face of utter despair, Zhu Ge recited classic texts, opening a new path of Confucianism, named 'Yi' (易)."

On the celestial canopy, Zhu Ge stood in the void, his robes fluttering, his literary aura surging like a tide.

The scroll of "The Book of Man" took shape before him, surrounded by eight images: heaven, earth, wind, thunder, water, fire, mountain, and marsh, with a vast and righteous spirit sweeping across thousands of miles.

The illusory image of the bamboo slips slowly closed, gradually changing from bamboo slips to become more and more ancient and blurry, until finally only the two characters "historical record" remained.

Finally, even the illusory image of the words "history book" turned into starlight and disappeared into the sky.

But those images and those words are etched in everyone's heart.

Across Honghe Prefecture, a moment of silence was followed by deafening cheers.

In Jianshui City, Li Hao covered his mouth, tears streaming down his face.

In the underground caves of Eagle City, countless people embraced and wept.

On the city wall of Mengzi, Tong Zhen leaned on his bone cane and laughed loudly.

Beside the ruins of the strange dragon city, the surviving people knelt on the ground, kowtowing towards the direction of the Six Paths Valley.

On the mountain ridge of Fenshui City, Tieshanhe drew his long sword, pointed it to the sky, and roared like thunder: "Six Paths Palace! Congratulations, Palace Master!"

On the treetops of Lvchun City, Mr. Chunzhi wrote the four characters "Everyone for Me" with great admiration.

In the Six Paths Valley, Zhu Ge stood in the void, looked down at his tattered robes, his wounds, and his pale face, and then looked up at the Red Rice Immortal.

Red Rice Immortal had completely lost his power, and his body, like dried rice husks, slowly fell from the sky.

His eyes were still open, filled with resentment, bitterness, and anger—which finally turned into a stagnant pool.

"You—" His voice was hoarse and weak, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. Instead, he looked up at the sky and then at the ground.

He slowly descended, knelt on the ground, and reached out with all his might to grab the ground, but only managed to pick up a handful of soil.

The soil fell from his fingertips, and his body dissipated into dust.

At the very beginning, when Zhu Ge used the "Human Classic" to attack Hongmi Daxian, Hongmi Daxian was already dead.

All of this was just the process of Redmi Daxian's death.

"Fallen leaves return to their roots." Zhu Ge sighed and shook his head.

The great leader of Honghe Prefecture has fallen.

Redmi Fan deserves sympathy, but he also doesn't.

As can be predicted, Honghe Prefecture will be peaceful for a while after the death of the Red Rice Immortal.

Congratulations, Zhu Ge!

At this moment, Lord Lantern and Lord Annihilation descended.

Zhu Ge, supported by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, slowly descended and finally landed on the ground.

"I must thank Lord Ti Deng for this," Zhu Ge said, bowing to Lord Ti Deng.

If it weren't for Lord Ti Deng recording and announcing it in history books, it's likely that Immortal Hongmi's scheme to harm Zhuge before his death would have succeeded.

Of course, they have succeeded now.

Hongmi Daxian must have a lot of wealth. If anyone really believed what Hongmi Daxian said before his death, then there's no way he would come looking for trouble with Zhu Ge.

"This has nothing to do with me." Lord Lantern shook his head, his expression indifferent, and said frankly, "We arrived here earlier, but I cannot move an inch."

"Oh?" Zhu Ge asked in surprise.

The Annihilation True Lord laughed loudly, "Historians cannot manipulate historical moments; therefore, we can only act after the historical moment has ended and the curtain has fallen."

"I see." Zhu Ge suddenly realized, and then looked to the other side.

Yan Liyuan and the others stared blankly at Zhu Ge, not daring to say a word.

Zhu Sisi lay quietly on the ground, the dragon ball inside her body shimmering with light.

The dragon ball was originally bigger than Zhu Ge's head, and probably several times the size of Zhu Sisi's body.

However, after being absorbed into Zhu Sisi's body, it is now only the size of a grain of rice.

Even though the Red River Dragon Python and the Red Rice Immortal are dead, the Dragon Ball is still not so easy to tame.

That's the dragon pearl of the great demon Red River Dragon Python, and the Red River Dragon Python also cultivates the divine path, making the power within the dragon pearl even more difficult to deal with.

"True Lords—" Zhu Ge turned his pleading gaze to the Lantern-Carrying True Lord and the Annihilation True Lord.

Lord Lantern nodded and said to Zhu Sisi, "By circulating your cultivation technique, I will seal the Dragon Pearl in your Shangyuan Palace. It can be released once you break through to the third realm."

Although Zhu Sisi was unable to recover at this time, she had already begun to circulate her demonic energy.

The tiny speck of light, the size of a grain of rice, within her body slowly disappeared.

A moment later, Zhu Sisi opened her eyes and said to the Lantern-Carrying True Lord, "Thank you, True Lord!"

Lord Lantern smiled and then waved his hand again.

The next moment, Liu Jianjian, who had been lying unconscious on the ground, screamed and jumped up.

"Fight! Fight!"

"I can't believe it," Liu Jianjian said in a panic.

She immediately noticed a group of people looking at her, her cheeks flushed, and she realized that the fight was over.

"Your cultivation is quite good." True Monarch Tilan nodded slowly, probably having discerned Liu Jianjian's cultivation level and the demonic beast she had subdued.

Finally, he looked at Yan Liyuan and the others.

"Now that this matter is settled, your elders should be on their way. I still have things to discuss with Zhu Ge, so you may leave now."

After speaking, Lord Lantern waved his hand without waiting for Yan Liyuan and the others to say anything.

The next moment, Yan Liyuan and the others were all teleported out to the outside of the Six Paths Valley.

Only Zhu Ge, Liu Jianjian, Zhu Sisi, and the True Lord of the Lantern and the True Lord of Extinction remain here.

Zhu Ge glanced curiously at the True Lord of Obliteration.

His second brother seems to be a bit quiet.

"Don't look at him." True Lord Lantern glanced at True Lord Annihilation beside him and said, "He talks too much. I'll seal him first to avoid him interrupting."

"Oh, so that's what it is—ah?" Zhu Ge nodded, but then immediately realized something was wrong: "It's sealed off?"

The True Lord with the Lantern's expression turned serious: "Yes, that's what I'm about to say. Listen carefully, this matter has escalated too much. If we're not careful, we could be utterly destroyed, and everything would be over!"
