~8 min read 1,403 words

"Junior Brother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Gu Xiu bow toward the direction of the Biyou Palace and then be stunned for a long time, Holy Mother Huo Ling has doubts in her eyes and asks.

"Nothing, just thinking about how to deal with the Ren Sect." Gu Xiu comes back to his senses and says slowly.

Holy Mother Huo Ling looks at Gu Xiu and reminds him: "Since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the subsequent Human Emperors have all had names but no reality. This time you want to reshape the position of the Human Emperor and let the Human Emperor return, which will definitely touch the interests of many parties, especially the Ren Sect, so Junior Brother, you must be careful and cautious in your actions."

Gu Xiu nods and gives a smile that makes the other party feel at ease: "Senior Sister, rest assured, I have a plan in my heart."

Holy Mother Huo Ling smiles satisfactorily: "It's good that Junior Brother remembers."

Having said that, Holy Mother Huo Ling suddenly stops talking, becoming hesitant.

"Junior Brother, can I follow you?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiu does not answer immediately.

Thinking of going to Chaoge this time to help Di Xin ascend to the position of Human Emperor.

Once the Human Emperor truly returns, it will definitely attract various phenomena of heaven and earth.

By then, the Saint's gaze will gather in Chaoge.

In asking Di Xin to abolish the status of the Ren Sect within the human race.

Taiqing Laozi will definitely bring Yuanshi Tianzun to kill him.

By then, a Saint's war will inevitably break out.

Although Holy Mother Huo Ling's fate has undergone some subtle changes and she has broken through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

But following her this time will inevitably be dangerous. After thinking about it again and again, Gu Xiu speaks up.

"Senior Sister, going to Chaoge this time to help Di Xin ascend to the position of Human Emperor and then abolish the Ren Sect will definitely attract Saints, and a Saint's war might break out. It is too dangerous. You should stay on Jin'ao Island this time, and leave this matter to me."

"Can you really do it alone?"

Gu Xiu reveals a confident smile: "Senior Sister, don't forget, not long ago the Sect Leader took the Chaos Bell to suppress the Jie Sect's fortune and handed it to me for safekeeping. This plan was also proposed by me, so no one is more suitable for the Chaoge trip than me."

Seeing Gu Xiu's firm attitude and that the idea is set, Holy Mother Huo Ling sighs lightly.

"Okay, since Junior Brother has his own ideas, I won't say anything. I will return to Jin'ao Island to report this matter to my Master."

Gu Xiu bows and sends her off: "Senior Sister, walk slowly."

Watching Holy Mother Huo Ling's gradually receding figure, Gu Xiu takes out the Kongtong Seal, stares at it, and mutters in a low voice: "After disappearing from the world for so long, you will soon be able to reappear in the world."

Putting the Kongtong Seal away, Gu Xiu goes to the dojo of the Three Immortals and tells Yun Xiao.

Then he sets off for Chaoge.

At this time.

Chaoge.

After Wen Zhong quelled the rebellion in the East Sea, he returned to the court with his army and has now returned to outside Chaoge City.

As the Grand Master of Yin-Shang and a veteran of three dynasties, Wen Zhong is highly respected and has made great contributions to Cheng Tang's country over the years, and is deeply loved by the people of Chaoge.

Learning the news of Wen Zhong's army's return, the shops in the city are decorated with lanterns and colored streamers, and the people line the streets to welcome them.

Wen Zhong rides the Ink Qilin and bows to the people.

Surrounded by the people, Wen Zhong rides the Ink Qilin toward the palace.

Before the Noon Gate, the civil and military officials have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Grand Master Wen appear majestically riding the Ink Qilin.

The officials immediately bow and shout in unison.

"Congratulations to the Grand Master for his triumphant return, may our King have great fortune, and may Yin-Shang be prosperous!"

The sound is neat and loud, resounding over the Noon Gate.

Grand Master Wen hurriedly gets off the Ink Qilin, steps forward quickly, helps up the leading ministers, and says: "Prime Minister, fellow officials, you are too polite. The success of this rebellion suppression cannot be separated from your assistance and support in the court."

After some polite exchanges.

Wen Zhong leads the generals and, surrounded by civil and military officials, goes to the palace to meet Di Xin.

Inside the main hall.

Di Xin sits high on the throne, wearing a crown and a gorgeous brocade robe.

He praises Wen Zhong's merit in quelling the East Sea rebellion without end, and orders a grand banquet to reward the three armies.

And asks about the follow-up matters of guarding the East Sea.

Grand Master Wen takes a step forward and says: "King, the East Sea rebellion has been quelled, but troops still need to be left to guard it to prevent further trouble. I have already arranged it properly, leaving some elite soldiers to guard it to ensure the stability of the East Sea. In addition, this rebellion could be quelled so quickly, besides the assistance of my fellow disciples, there was also the assistance of the East Sea Dragon Palace. So I boldly ask the King for an imperial decree to build Dragon King statues in the human towns of the East Sea to thank the Dragon Clan for their assistance in quelling the rebellion."

Di Xin nods slightly: "Grand Master's move is very good. The Dragon Clan helped our dynasty quell the rebellion and should be thanked. The matter of building Dragon King statues will be left to the Grand Master to arrange for manpower."

"The King is wise!" Seeing Di Xin agree, Wen Zhong breathes a sigh of relief. Finally, he owes the Dragon Clan a favor.

Su Daji on the side has not made a sound from the beginning, her eyes flowing.

Thoughtful, she suddenly speaks, softly and charmingly.

"Grand Master Wen, you just said that it was thanks to the assistance of your fellow disciples and the assistance of the Dragon Clan that the rebellion was quelled so quickly. Is it true?"

Wen Zhong frowns slightly: "That is indeed the case. I wonder why Concubine Su asks this?"

Su Daji smiles beautifully: "I heard that Grand Master's master comes from the Jie Sect, and the Immortal Gu who came to Chaoge before is your Junior Brother, Grand Master. I wonder if Immortal Gu participated in quelling the East Sea rebellion this time?"

Not long ago, Antarctic Immortal Weng came to Xuanyuan Tomb to force the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit and the Jade Stone Pipa Spirit to go to the Chaoge Palace to wreak havoc on Cheng Tang's fortune.

The two demons had to change their names to Hu Ximei and Yu Guiren to find Su Daji in the palace and inform her of this matter.

Let Su Daji contact Gu Xiu quickly.

But Gu Xiu did not give Su Daji a way to contact him actively.

This caused Su Daji to be worried about this matter these days.

She did not expect Wen Zhong to return triumphantly, so Su Daji intends to contact Gu Xiu through Wen Zhong.

Wen Zhong did not expect Su Daji to ask about Gu Xiu.

Although Di Xin is obsessed with beauty, he has some complaints, but fortunately Su Daji brings Di Xin to court every day.

And she has assisted him many times in some matters, so Wen Zhong speaks slowly.

"Reporting to Concubine, the East Sea rebellion was exactly because my Junior Brother took action to assist, so I returned so quickly."

Learning Gu Xiu's whereabouts, Su Daji is secretly happy in her heart.

Following that, she speaks up.

"That's great, this is a great merit. I wonder if the Grand Master can contact Immortal Gu and let him come to Chaoge to accept the King's reward."

Wen Zhong shakes his head: "I have no way to contact my Junior Brother. Usually, it is my Junior Brother who finds me." ===== CHAPTER 428 =====
