Chapter 398 Fang Tiandi, Dao Ancestor’s Favor [Third Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Chapter 398: Emperor Fang, Dao Ancestor’s Favor [Third Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Back in reality, Han Jue silently wondered, “Who was that person who just awakened the Chaos Physique?”

He wanted to understand a bit first, in case it was an enemy, he could deal with them early.

If not an enemy, he could still keep an eye out in the future and avoid offending them easily.

[Do you wish to deduct eighty million years of lifespan?]

Yes!

Only eighty million years; it seems this fellow isn't very strong, at most a Divine Realm cultivator.

A line of text then popped up before Han Jue’s eyes:

[Zhao Xuanxuan: Three-Profound Divine Origin, descendant of the Human Emperor, disciple of a Saint, merged with the divine soul of a Human Emperor at birth, evolved into a Chaos Physique after being modified by the Human Race, possesses immense luck, destined to be the Human Emperor.]

Disciple of a Saint!

Quite an impressive background!

It seems this fellow will become a prominent figure in the next era.

Han Jue thought silently, without any particular feeling.

Three-Profound Divine Origin, just average.

As long as their cultivation is weaker than his, they can never surpass him!

Having cultivated to this point, Han Jue still had that much confidence.

What is a Chaos Physique? He has a Grandmist Physique!

Comparing vertically, it’s hard to beat the great figures; but comparing horizontally, what is there to fear?

At the same cultivation realm, Han Jue has the best aptitude and cultivates the fastest!

Unless the Heavenly Dao opens a back door for them!

Han Jue closed his eyes and continued cultivating.

He must reach Six-Profound Divine Origin within three hundred years, then strive for the Great Luo Realm!

Meanwhile, the Immortal World was undergoing great changes.

The fall of the Heavenly Emperor caused turmoil in the Heavenly Court, and many immortals and gods defected.

After all these years, the newly appointed Heavenly Emperor, Fang Liang, had become a joke because he was merely an Immortal Emperor.

For a time, more and more beings viewed the Heavenly Court with pessimism.

The Dark Forbidden Lord once again became a hot topic of discussion throughout the heavens, a topic that never faded.

Seventeen years is a long time for the mortal world, but very short in the Immortal World.

Fang Liang had just taken office and was struggling with how to be a good Heavenly Emperor.

In the High Heavens Palace, immortals and gods gathered, all looking at Fang Liang, who was seated on the imperial throne.

He had already donned the Heavenly Emperor’s robes, and his demeanor had become imposing.

Li Daokong, Li Xuan’ao, Ji Xianshen, Huang Jihao, the Grand Divine General, the Heavenly Divine General, the Martial Divine General, and many others, hundreds of figures stood in the hall.

Ji Xianshen looked at Fang Liang with encouraging eyes.

Fang Liang slowly spoke, “This is my first time as emperor, and it coincides with the arrival of the Immeasurable Calamity. In the future, all matters must be discussed with all you immortals and gods.

However, there is one point: the Heavenly Court will always be the enforcer of the Heavenly Dao, and will always take protecting all living beings as its duty!”

The immortals and gods knelt one after another, shouting, “Your Majesty is wise!”

Only the two disciples of the Human School did not kneel; they had not knelt before the previous Heavenly Emperor either, as they were not members of the Heavenly Court but merely assisted it.

“Currently, the Heavenly Court should stabilize its existing territories, and the war with the Human Race should temporarily cease.

Immortals and gods are meant to protect the Human Race; for whatever reason, they should not be enemies with the entire Human Race.

Immortals and gods are not tyrants, nor butchers.”

Fang Liang continued, his words causing a stir.

Waging war against the Human Race was the previous Heavenly Emperor’s order; Fang Liang overturning it immediately after ascending the throne showed he was not to be trifled with either.

Li Daokong smiled, pondering something, but many immortals and gods looked at him.

In the war against the Human Race, Li Daokong was the primary supporter.

“I think it’s acceptable. The warning to the Human Race is sufficient. The Human School will support Emperor Fang’s arrangements!”

Li Daokong suddenly spoke, startling many immortals and gods.

How did the Human School suddenly switch sides?

Wait a minute!

Could it be… The immortals and gods looked at Fang Liang and Li Daokong with different eyes.

No wonder Fang Liang could ascend to the throne; it turns out Li Daokong was behind him.

Perhaps the Heavenly Emperor intended to bind the Human School and the Heavenly Court together, which is why he chose Fang Liang?

Suddenly, the immortals and gods no longer dared to underestimate Fang Liang.

Fang Liang remained expressionless, though he was also very surprised.

He had thought Li Daokong would be difficult to deal with, but he never expected Li Daokong to actually support him!

What’s going on?

Was it the Heavenly Emperor’s arrangement?

…Thirty years passed in a flash.

Han Jue suddenly had an idea to give the Heavenly Emperor a dream message.

He always felt that the Heavenly Emperor revealing the truth of his feigned death to him had an element of probing.

Soon, the two entered the dream realm.

Seeing the Dark Forbidden Lord again, the Heavenly Emperor showed no panic.

Han Jue feigned mockery, saying, “Do you think your feigned death could deceive me?”

The Heavenly Emperor asked, “How did you figure it out?”

“Back then, Ancestor Tu also feigned death, but I made him truly die,” Han Jue said profoundly.

The Heavenly Emperor frowned slightly.

He didn’t doubt Han Jue’s words. Ancestor Tu’s cultivation, being directly cursed to death, was indeed suspicious.

However, after so long, Ancestor Tu’s fate had remained absent, making it very likely he was dead.

It was said that Ancestor Tu’s figure appeared in the Nine Nether Purgatory, but he believed it to be a trap by the Golden Crow Divine Race to lure the Divine Palace in.

And indeed, after the Divine Palace cultivators entered the Nine Nether Purgatory, they never returned. According to the disciples of the Jie School, they were all suppressed by the Golden Crow Divine Race.

The Heavenly Emperor narrowed his eyes and said, “Do you intend to target me?”

“Aren’t you targeting me?”

“Then what do you want?”

“I want you to be my pawn!”

This was the method Han Jue thought of. Without a motive, the Heavenly Emperor would sooner or later associate the Dark Forbidden Lord with him and would continue to secretly undermine him.

The Heavenly Emperor frowned, his eyes burning with anger.

Han Jue said, “Actually, like you, I want to protect the prosperous Heavenly Dao era created by the Dao Ancestor. It’s better for you to be my pawn than a Saint’s pawn.”

The Heavenly Emperor’s expression changed drastically.

Han Jue dropped a final remark and then directly ended the dream message:

“Sometimes, the existence behind you is also untrustworthy, especially when it comes to the Heavenly Dao.”

…Back in reality, Han Jue was smug.

The Dao Ancestor was definitely the Heavenly Emperor’s soft spot. For the sake of the Dao Ancestor, the Heavenly Emperor dared to fight to the death with Emperor Zhou Yan.

Now, the Heavenly Emperor should have reached some kind of consensus with the Dark Forbidden Lord, right?

[The Dao Ancestor has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 1 star.]

A line of text suddenly popped up before Han Jue’s eyes, startling him.

He quickly checked his interpersonal relationships.

The Dao Ancestor’s avatar was a patch of darkness, standing out among his friends’ avatars.

[Dao Ancestor: Cultivation unknown, Chaos Fiendcelestial, creator of the Dao, will of the Heavenly Dao, patriarch of Saints, eternal deity, transcendent Daoist, Lord of Immeasurable, transformed into billions of dharmakayas. A trace of his lingering will in the Heavenly Dao heard that you were plotting for him and has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 1 star.]

This series of titles made Han Jue’s breathing quicken.

That’s too awesome!

The Dao Ancestor could even detect Han Jue’s dream messages?

Could it be that everything was within the Dao Ancestor’s sight?

The more Han Jue thought about it, the more he felt a chill down his spine.

This was just a trace of will, yet it was so terrifying. What about his true self?

However, what was fortunate was that the Dao Ancestor had a favorable impression of him, not hatred.

Then again… does the Dao Ancestor like flattery?

No!

The Dao Ancestor should have been paying attention to the Heavenly Emperor and happened to hear his heartfelt words.

From the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, everything Han Jue did was indeed protecting the Heavenly Court and the forces created by the Dao Ancestor.

After realizing this, Han Jue felt no more pressure.

He hadn’t plotted against the Dao Ancestor, so what was there to fear?

In the future, he couldn’t let his disciples talk nonsense; the Dao Ancestor was still alive!

Even if it was just a trace of will, it was an existence unimaginable to all living beings!
