Chapter 348: The Arrangements of the Way of Heaven

Master!

On Golden Turtle Island, the immortals of the Sect of the Severed all bowed to the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven who had just returned.

At this moment, the immortals of the Sect of the Severed looked solemn.

Simply because Zhao Gongming's death cast a shadow over everyone's hearts.

After all, Zhao Gongming's methods were top-notch even among the Sect of the Severed.

Yet such a ruthless person died a vague and miserable death.

That's right; in the hearts of the Sect of the Severed's immortals, Zhao Gongming's death was vague and unclear.

After all, aside from Yun Zhongzi and his disciples, no one thought Zhao Gongming died at Yun Zhongzi's hands.

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven glanced over the immortals of the Sect of the Severed, his gaze lingering a few breaths longer on several female immortals.

"Good, not bad. It seems that among you, these people have understood the true meaning of the decree I issued earlier."

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven said.

Upon hearing this, most of the immortals present, aside from a few, were completely bewildered.

They still remembered that the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven had issued two decrees earlier.

One was 'kill', the other was 'life'.

"Kill,' everyone understands; the calamity is a killing calamity, to stop killing with killing, showing no mercy—this must be the meaning of the first decree.

However, among the immortals, most still haven't figured out the meaning of the character 'life' even now.

"Upon hearing the Master's words, it seems someone among us has grasped the true meaning of the character 'life'; our Sect of the Severed truly hides dragons and crouches tigers!"

Duobao Daoist secretly thought to himself.

After all, he himself had not fully understood the meaning of the character 'life'.

Thus, it instead showed that this senior brother of the inner door lacked some insight.

The immortals of the Sect of the Severed gazed eagerly at the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven, but he seemed unwilling to give an explanation.

Thus, the immortals also found it hard to ask.

"What are your thoughts on the matter of Gongming?"

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven spoke.

"Master!"

At this moment, Lü Yue stepped forward, bowed, and said: "As a disciple, I feel that Gongming senior brother's death cannot simply be let go; at the very least, Yun Zhongzi and his disciples must die!"

"This is just a small matter!"

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven waved his hand.

In his eyes, Yun Zhongzi and his disciple Leizhenzi were insignificant minor figures, not worth much attention.

"Duobao, what do you think?"

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven looked at Duobao Daoist.

Upon hearing this, Duobao Daoist stepped forward and said: "Master, I suspect this matter may involve sages; we should still be cautious."

"Indeed, that's correct!"

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven nodded and said: "I suspect it was the doing of those two bald donkeys in the West; therefore, I decide to send you to the Western Pure Land to give them an explanation."

"This, Master, given my abilities, I fear..."

Duobao Daoist was still preparing to say something when the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven raised his hand to interrupt.

"Don't be afraid; as the Master calculates, the Two Sages of the West will not make things difficult for you; going there will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Duobao Daoist's eyes flickered slightly, and he finally bowed and said: "Yes, Master!"

"Good, when you go, select some disciples; remember, you must not lose the aura of our Sect of the Severed!"

The Sect Master of the Way of Heaven said: "The matter of Gongming will be handled by your senior brother; then I will discuss the upcoming calamity."

"Ten Heavenly Lords, go down the mountain, set up the Ten Absolute Formation to assist the Yin-Shang army and block the Xiqi army."

Upon hearing this, the Ten Heavenly Lords showed a hint of joy on their faces.

They have cultivated for years and longed to display their ambitions, but the vastness of the three realms means few opportunities worthy of their action.

Now that this opportunity has arisen, they will certainly let the Immortals of the Sect of the Abstruse know how formidable their Ten Absolute Formation is.

"We will obediently follow the Master's decree!"

The Ten Heavenly Lords stepped forward in unison.

"Good"

After giving instructions to the Ten Heavenly Lords, the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven turned his gaze to the Holy Mother Jinling and said: "Jinling, you have made considerable progress lately; keep striving, for the Sect of the Severed will come to rely on you in the future."

"Disciple, I am overwhelmed!"

The Holy Mother Jinling quickly said:

"Alright, you all may retreat now!"

Waving his hand, the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven had the immortals retreat.

Upon hearing this, the immortals of the Sect of the Severed said nothing more and all left the hall.

After the disciples had left, suddenly, the Sect Master of the Way of Heaven's figure flickered, and a young man stepped out from his youthful form.

"Huh? You've finally recovered!"

The youthful form looked at the young man and said:

"Yes!"

Stretching lazily, the young man said: "That nap was really comfortable; thanks to that fellow Yuanshi, otherwise I wouldn't have had this chance to relax."

"Alright, you've rested enough; switch back now. You know I'm still growing, so I need more rest too!"

The youthful form said:

Tsk, as expected, even I myself quite dislike my younger self.

The youth curled their lip, extended their right hand, and said, "Come back!"

Nodding, the youth prepared to likewise extend their right hand.

But halfway through, they suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, there's one more thing: are you sure you want to send all those disciples into the Measure Tribulation? They are the foundation of the Sect of the Cut; if they're all gone, our Sect of the Cut could be affected."

"Hah, the foundation of the Sect of the Cut? It's long since not theirs; right now there are still many fools occupying positions that aren't theirs, and if they don't step aside, how can we make room for the next generation?"

The youth sneered.

"Exactly!"

The youth nodded and said, "Although that Primordial fellow is stubborn, he's not wrong about one thing: education without distinction is good, but it sometimes inevitably leads to mixed quality, so it's time for us to clear out those who hold positions without merit."

As they spoke, the youth's hand clasped with the young adult's hand.

The next moment, the youth's figure gradually faded and merged into the young adult's body.

……

Ding— congratulations to the host for successfully enabling Fairy Yunxiao to bear offspring; reward: five hundred thousand years of cultivation, reward: secret art, Three Purities Unite!

Congratulations to the host's offspring for carrying vast qi fortune; reward: vast qi fortune of the Sect of the Cut; reward: the seed of the Shang Great Dao.

After Ao Yifan's painstaking efforts, they finally succeeded in letting Zhao Gongming reincarnate successfully.

After being fully attired, Fairy Yunxiao immediately unleashed her Primordial Golden Cauldron.

The next moment, a chubby baby wearing a red dudou flew out from her belly.

If observed carefully, one could see that the chubby baby vaguely resembled Zhao Gongming.

The chubby baby neither cried nor fussed, glancing around at the surroundings.

The next moment, seeing its hand forming a seal, and then its surroundings flashing with spiritual light, the infantile chubby baby, at a speed visible to the naked eye, transformed into the appearance of a youth.

Young Zhao Gongming, looking at his own appearance, nodded in satisfaction, then lifted his gaze to Ao Yifan and Fairy Yunxiao.

"Dad, Mom!"

The exclamation of "Mom and Dad" made both Ao Yifan and Fairy Yunxiao feel a bit uneasy, after all, this was their first child born with memories, and they just felt weird.
