Emperor Xin was relieved to hear this. Moreover, he felt it necessary to increase the strength of Chaoge and to recruit strong individuals from across the country.

Some powerful individuals were unwilling to come, so he used his resources to invite them, determined not to let anyone harm him.

"Your Majesty, I am truly afraid. What if we release Li Jing and Nezha and they harbor rebellious intentions?"

Su Daji didn't want Nezha to return because he had only just begun his cultivation and had already displayed astonishing talent. If he were to return to Chen Tang Pass, wouldn't Chen Tang Pass become nothing more than their own little territory?

"However, the Chen family has occupied Chentang Pass for a very long time and has deep roots. Once I kill Li Jing and Nezha, Chentang Pass will surely rebel! At that time, it will only deplete the manpower of my Great Shang."

Emperor Xin wasn't afraid of a rebellion at Chentang Pass, but losing more troops at Chentang Pass would be a bad deal.

It would be better to bring Grand Tutor Wen back and form a team of cultivators, so that we wouldn't be afraid of them.

Chapter 85 Grand Tutor Wen's Doubts

"Damn it, I can't believe Lin Yaoxie managed to get away even with something like this." Many people in Chaoge City said in anguish, as Lin Yaoxie had offended quite a few people in Chaoge City.

Therefore, many people want him dead. So, the fact that Lin Yaoxie escaped means that he is not dead. You must know that he has a powerful master. Once Lin Yaoxie reaches the Earth Immortal realm, no one will be able to stop him when he returns.

"Master, will we still be able to go to Chaoge?" Ouyang Xue was learning a sword technique on Kunlun Mountain, but Jiang Ziya was divining for her by the side.

"No need, the demon has successfully escaped. Li Jing and Nezha have been released back to Chen Tang Pass. Now what we need to do is master the sword technique."

After Jiang Ziya finished speaking, he put down the divination tortoise shell in his hand and looked into the distance. A star shone brightly. Lin Yaoxie's destiny star had not fallen, which meant that he had escaped danger, or at least was no longer a threat.

"Jiang Ziya, I hope you will keep our agreement." The Queen Mother of the West said, then gave Ou-Yang Xue a meaningful look.

She didn't help Jiang Ziya for no reason. The conditions Jiang Ziya offered weren't bad, which is why she was willing to teach the Kunlun Sword Technique to Ouyang Xue.

"Study diligently. The Kunlun Sword Technique is unparalleled. If you master it, you can reach the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. Becoming an immortal is not easy, and becoming a god is even more difficult. So I think you still need to study hard."

Jiang Ziya chuckled and then prepared to leave, since swordsmanship could not be learned in a short time.

"Master, I heard that the Investiture of the Gods is coming soon?" Ouyang Xue asked, because the Investiture of the Gods list had already appeared, and she wondered who would be on it.

Jiang Ziya smiled but remained silent. The Investiture of the Gods was just a gimmick; being on the list did not make one a god.

Unfortunately, many people don't know that this is just a conspiracy, but it's a conspiracy that forces people to jump in.

Grand Tutor Wen felt something was amiss in his own military camp. The entire 300,000-strong army of the Great Shang was here, and they would soon be at war with the Qiang Di, yet he was filled with unease.

"Has anything happened in Chaoge recently?" Grand Tutor Wen asked, and someone quickly answered.

"Grand Tutor, recently a powerful figure appeared in Chaoge City. He was wearing a white robe with the color yin and yang. He appeared in the sky above Chaoge City and killed Lin Yaoxie without a trace with just one finger."

"The Yin-Yang White Robe!!" Grand Tutor Wen sensed something was wrong upon hearing these words. How could a Yin-Yang White Robe appear? This is not right!

Moreover, the mention of the yin-yang white robe reminded him of a figure: their sect's leader. The leader's power was extraordinary; otherwise, how could he dare to use a name like "Tongtian Jiaozhu" (Master of the Heavens)?

That is why Grand Tutor Wen had almost never seen his sect leader make a move, but this time he used a single finger to deal with a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

This is utterly ridiculous. You should know that the Tongtian Sect Leader doesn't know how to use supernatural powers. He can beat a Daluo Golden Immortal half to death with just his physical body. If he used his true strength, not to mention a Daluo Golden Immortal, even a true Celestial Immortal would be killed.

"Grand Tutor, His Majesty has ordered us to resolve the war quickly and return to the capital!" The order that had made the Grand Tutor uneasy had finally arrived; it was the most outrageous order he had received all day.

Chapter 86 Di Xin's Request

"This is impossible. Before I left, I clearly told His Majesty not to call me back unless there was something urgent. What happened?"

Grand Tutor Wen glanced at the Qiangdi tribe not far away; they were the enemies of their Great Shang Dynasty. Grand Tutor Wen planned to spend ten years defeating the Qiangdi tribe.

Yes, that's right. It was a defeat, not a annihilation, because the Qiang people all practiced Taoism. A country that practices Taoism cannot easily defeat "Six Three Three".

Now the odds of winning are going to drop even further. If Grand Tutor Wen goes back, then the plan here will have to be terminated, which means that the Qiangdi clan will have time to grow stronger.

"What is Your Majesty doing? How could you issue such an absurd order?" Grand Tutor Wen really wanted to respond with the idea that a general in the field may disobey orders, but he held back.

Now he couldn't afford to make the king dislike him, and Grand Tutor Wen was also helpless. If someone who didn't understand his arrangements came, his plan would probably fall apart.

"I'm going back now. You tell the soldiers to continue the attack," Grand Tutor Wen said angrily. He wanted to see what had happened to make the king summon him back like this.

Grand Tutor Wen mounted the black unicorn and flew swiftly towards Chaoge City. All the way, he kept thinking about who was threatening Di Xin's safety.

"Grand Tutor, you're finally back!" Di Xin recognized Grand Tutor Wen as soon as he saw a flash of green light.

"Your Majesty, what exactly is going on? Last time I said that if there was nothing else, I shouldn't be called back. The Qiangdi tribe is too powerful now, and I need to fight them there."

Grand Tutor Wen looked at Emperor Xin helplessly, then his gaze swept across the hall and he spotted an extremely beautiful woman, Su Daji.

Su Daji could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive Grand Tutor Wen. Grand Tutor Wen saw through Su Daji's demonic aura at a glance, but he remained unperturbed.

"Your Majesty, who is this?" Grand Tutor Wen asked, then pointed at Su Daji and drew out a pair of whips from behind his back.

"This is my beloved concubine, Su Daji. Grand Tutor, let me tell you about some recent events." Seeing Grand Tutor Wen return, Di Xin felt relieved.

With Grand Tutor Wen's assistance, he enjoyed a very comfortable reign, even indulging in leisurely travels. He also trusted Grand Tutor Wen implicitly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please tell me what's going on." Grand Tutor Wen withdrew his hands from behind his back, glanced at Su Daji, and spoke calmly to Emperor Xin.

He decided not to expose Su Daji. Although he didn't know why Su Daji had come, he was still unable to deduce her origins.

Therefore, he planned to personally ask Su Daji about her background and purpose later, in order to prevent her from doing evil around King Zhou.

"Grand Tutor Wen, that's it. If you can assemble a team of cultivators to protect me, then I won't be afraid of anyone plotting against me."

Ultimately, Emperor Xin still wanted to assemble a team of cultivators, but Grand Tutor Wen had already refused before, so refusing again now would not make sense, which put Grand Tutor Wen in a difficult position.

"Grand Tutor Wen, do you intend to watch me die?" Di Xin began to feign his impending death, which made it difficult for Grand Tutor Wen to cope.

Chapter 87 Grand Tutor Wen's Conditions

"Alright, alright, Your Majesty, I'll grant your request. However, I still need to rush back to the Qiangdi battlefield," Grand Tutor Wen said with a hint of helplessness. In truth, he didn't want to do this at all.

Although the Grand Tutor agreed, he didn't have the manpower. Cultivators generally don't want to be disturbed by these things, so he had to find people from the Jie Sect.

Although Di Xin was a mortal, he had one advantage: as an emperor, he could help find the resources needed for cultivation.

Regardless of the sect, all cultivators need resources to cultivate, but some people don't need to worry about cultivation resources, which is quite normal.

After obtaining Grand Tutor Wen's consent, Emperor Xin allowed the Grand Tutor to make the decision. Su Daji waited until Emperor Xin left the hall before looking at the Grand Tutor.

"Tell me, what are you doing infiltrating Chaoge?" Grand Tutor Wen was not someone to be easily fooled; his eyes could see through all evil spirits.

"Grand Tutor Wen, I'm not your enemy. Besides, I'm only doing this out of necessity. You don't need to keep an eye on me." Su Daji glanced at Grand Tutor Wen, still somewhat flustered.

Grand Tutor Wen thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. In any case, having another person with spiritual power by Di Xin's side would actually be able to protect him.

"Your clan must produce two immortals who join my ranks, or don't blame me for annihilating your soul," Grand Tutor Wen said coldly. Although he had no fondness for demons, he wouldn't deliberately try to destroy them.

"I will obey the Grand Tutor's orders." Although Su Daji had a lot of opinions about Wen Zhong, with her strength, she was only at the Golden Immortal level, while Grand Tutor Wen was at least at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. They were not opponents of the same level at all.

Just as everyone was wondering where Lin Yaoxie had gone, in the Hengshan Mountains, beside an ancient tree, a figure lay under the tree.

"I've told you so many times, you're just a Great Luo Golden Immortal, but you won't listen to me." A golden light flashed, and the ancient tree transformed into a person, then dragged the person on the ground into the tree hole.

This man was Lin Yaoxie. He used his last bit of spiritual power to teleport from Chaoge to Hengshan.

"I didn't want to either, but the Tongtian Sect Master is too ruthless!" Lin Yaoxie never expected that this quasi-god would attack him.

If he had stayed in Chaoge, he would probably have been captured. Now that he's here, he's escaped death.

"You should rest and recuperate first. Your meridians are severed and your spiritual energy is exhausted. Just stay here and heal your wounds," the ancient tree said.

"What reward do you want this time?" Lin Yaoxie asked. This ancient tree had already undergone eight tribulations of lightning. Once it passed the ninth tribulation, it would become an Earth Immortal. 633

However, their existence is quite special. There are very few cultivators in the world, and ancient trees are even rarer.

"My request is very simple. If I revive you, you give me a defensive formation." The ancient tree said this, seven hundred years after its last tribulation.

During these seven hundred years, he had been searching for defensive formations. He had once saved Lin Yaoxie by chance, so Lin Yaoxie became his friend.

"Sure, but can you bring me back?" Lin Yaoxie looked at him, indicating some doubt.

Chapter Eighty-Eight: Departure

"What kind of talk is that? Don't you know who I am!" the ancient tree said, and then began to treat Lin Yaoxie. Lin Yaoxie had just consumed too much spiritual energy and hadn't recovered for a while.

"The whole of Chaoge is looking for you now. I doubt you can escape the Great Shang territory. So, you should stay here with me and recuperate."

He has a point. There are many powerful figures in the Shang Dynasty, especially Grand Tutor Wen. If Grand Tutor Wen were to take action personally, Lin Yaoxie would probably be no match for him in his current state.

"As far as I know, the current Chaoge patrol team has already gained several powerful members, such as Hu Lei, Ji Li, and Yu Qing..."

Lin Yaoxie recognized these names; they were all extraordinary individuals. Several of them had impressive backgrounds, and there were even a few names he had never heard of before.

"These are all fourth-generation disciples of the Jie Sect, and some are outstanding disciples from the outer sect. It seems that Grand Tutor Wen has staked everything on this."

Lin Yaoxie listened to the list with a sense of helplessness. It seemed that war between Xiqi and Da Shang was inevitable. Moreover, he had no way to change this war, and his master Jiang Ziya was still unaware of it.

Where.

Lin Yaoxie received a blow from the Tongtian Sect Leader and naturally needs time to cultivate. However, he is currently being searched for outside, and if he is discovered, he will be in trouble if he does not recover his strength as soon as possible.

Although the ancient trees on Hengshan Mountain possess abundant spiritual energy and recover quickly, this place is, after all, the base camp that these ancient trees built over two thousand years.

This was a preparation for him to successfully pass the ninth tribulation of lightning, but if Lin Yaoxie ruined his plan, then this place might be discovered.

Although Emperor Xin was incompetent, his Shang Dynasty did indeed have many powerful figures. If even one of them could catch up, this ancient tree would be completely useless.

Even a Great Immortal like myself would find it difficult to stop these guys. Therefore, the only strategy now is to run away first.

While Lin Yaoxie's strength may not rank in the top three, he is certainly capable of protecting himself. His cultivation level as a Great Luo Golden Immortal is definitely among the mid-to-high level even within the Jie Sect.

“I can’t drag you down here. You’ve worked so hard to make this place what it is. This is the formation I’m giving you. Set it up sometime.”

After saying that, Lin Yaoxie left Hengshan. It wanted to stop him, but Lin Yaoxie was right; he wanted to successfully pass the ninth tribulation.

He had poured countless efforts into preparing for this ninth tribulation. He had consulted countless fellow cultivators. If he were to help Lin Yaoxie, his place would likely be destroyed very soon.

“Demon, once I have survived the ninth tribulation, I will come to help you!” the ancient tree said, and then all its trunks disappeared.

Lin Yaoxie nodded. He couldn't let his friends worry about him anymore, nor did he want anything to happen to Wang Haohao because of him.

Moreover, his current strength is indeed insufficient to help him, so his most important task now is to escape.

"Do they really intend to start a full-scale war?" Now that Grand Tutor Wen had returned, he was searching for Lin Yaoxie's location.

Strangely, after chasing him all the way to Hengshan, he disappeared. This couldn't have happened without a reason. After Grand Tutor Wen did some more calculations, he realized that the man was gone.

Chapter 89 The Cloud Fairy's Anger

"He actually escaped! Let's go back to Chaoge!" Grand Tutor Wen said, then gave up the pursuit of Lin Yaoxie, because he knew that if a Great Luo Golden Immortal wanted to escape, he could disappear without a trace in such a short time.

Therefore, continuing the pursuit was pointless, so he might as well return to Chaoge. Grand Tutor Wen was not one to hesitate, so he quickly led his men back.

Little did they know that Lin Yaoxie would actually appear in Chaoge City. The most dangerous place is the safest place, and Lin Yaoxie wanted to wait here for Jiang Ziya and the others to return.
