Chapter 25: Legal System

"Your Majesty, I need to leave for a while!"

As soon as he entered the back hall, the black-robed old man couldn't wait to say goodbye to the Chu Huang.

"What is the Mountain Lord in such a hurry for?"

The Chu Huang looked at the anxious black-robed old man, curious in his heart.

"This matter involves a lot, Your Majesty had better not ask. I need to personally report to the Demon Lord, otherwise, it will hinder the master's great cause!"

"Is it that serious?"

The Chu Huang knew exactly what the Demon Lord was plotting. A mysterious faction where a True God could only be an errand boy, a peerless powerhouse planning to establish a divine court and rule over all living beings. Today, a mere King of Equal Rank could hinder his great cause—the Chu Huang didn't quite believe it.

"Is the Mountain Lord joking with me? Although that King of Equal Rank is terrifying, he is not enough to make the Demon Lord wary, right?"

The Chu Huang was full of disbelief. If what the black-robed old man said was all true, he would have to rethink his cooperation with the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord had promised the Chu Huang the position of Heavenly Emperor, eternal life, and the ability to deter all living beings. Now, a mere King of Equal Rank who popped out from nowhere made the people of the Three Mountains and Four Seas panic like this.

Wouldn't that make people lose confidence?

"Your Majesty does not know, the tree behind that person today involves ancient secrets and contains the plane origin of the Tianhuo Domain!"

The black-robed old man's expression was serious.

That was the Origin Divine Tree they had been looking for for a thousand years, spending countless manpower and material resources, but never found. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had to plot for such a long time. With the power under the Demon Lord, they would have long since swept through the factions of this world.

It is said that one must have a righteous name to act.

This matter of establishing a divine court was not something that could be accomplished by force alone. Although the black-robed old man didn't know the reason very well either. But the thing the Demon Lord had always been thinking about must be an extraordinary thing.

The Chu Huang looked at the black-robed old man's constantly changing expression, and his heart was also heavy. However, the Chu Huang was a smart man and didn't ask any more questions.

"Since you say so, I won't pursue it anymore. But now that the Empress is under house arrest by the Nine Thousand Years Old, and those useless things from the Qing Lian Immortal Mansion have also been wiped out by that person, have you thought about who to replace the Empress with to destroy the Great Chu 'Legal System'?"

Originally, the Three Mountains and Four Seas intended to use the Empress to usurp the throne to destroy the "Legal System" of the Great Chu Dynasty, which was the dragon energy in the ordinary sense.

However, unlike dragon energy in the secular sense, the dragon energy here included tradition, etiquette, and the world values shared by everyone on this land for thousands of years, so the Three Mountains and Four Seas called the dragon energy the Legal System.

The mystery of this was probably only understood by the mysterious Demon Lord. In short, wanting to completely rule everything in the world seemed very difficult; there was suppression by the laws of the Great Dao in the dark, so it must be destroyed from the legal principle to realize a series of plans.

"If we can get that tree, everything else is unimportant," the black-robed old man smiled mysteriously.

Li Qingxian knelt tremblingly, his heart now filled with mixed feelings. He had always thought that the ancestor didn't have much airs and had always been trying to plan and manage. In fact, over the years, from the Empress holding power to the Qing Lian Immortal Mansion running rampant, the Xuan Yi Wei had been precarious and in danger. Although the Nine Thousand Years Old had taken care of them because of past feelings, the four major families relied on Li Xianzhi's glory to get ahead, and the disciples in the family were mostly incompetent, so Li Qingxian was anxious.

Wanted to make contributions, wanted to cling to a big thigh.

"What's wrong with me? I am Li Qingxian of the Burning Silence Sword." Li Qingxian looked dull, his old face full of shame.

Think of his youth, how high his spirit was, how ambitious he was, how free and easy he was. And now he was calculating with humility to everyone.

"General Commander, are you okay?"

Li Hongyu looked at Li Qingxian with concern. "Don't hold it against my father, he is just like this. I have seen him worried a lot these past few days, always thinking about things, I'm afraid something terrible is going to happen."

Li Hongyu had felt uncomfortable since entering the capital, and everything that happened here seemed to be known to her last. She didn't have a concept of how much was involved. It was not as happy as living in Dongjiang City.

Plus her father was here, and now such a big thing happened in the Great Chu. The Empress was under house arrest by her own father, and the Qing Lian Immortal Mansion was wiped out in one pot. The Nine Thousand Years Old controlled the court and followed her father's lead, and it was said that the Chu Huang was ill and couldn't get up.

Li Hongyu was scared.

Plus Li Xianzhi had just questioned the General Commander, and nominally he was still her master's ancestor. Was this still the idle father she knew? Li Hongyu really wanted to make a scene with Li Xianzhi like before, but she couldn't.

The aura of the superior on Li Xianzhi made Li Hongyu afraid. Li Hongyu was not a little girl who didn't understand anything.

"General Commander, I understand what you are thinking. But I think you should try your best to do your own duty, so you don't have to look at anyone's face. I think my father is not questioning you, but waking you up. I have heard many legends about you from my master, what do you think?" Li Hongyu smiled and stepped forward to support Li Qingxian's arm, looking at Li Qingxian affectionately.

"Truly a good child."

Li Qingxian didn't call any aunt, but looked at Li Hongyu with love.

Yes, do your own duty.

"This daughter of mine, really can't be underestimated." Li Qingxian narrowed his eyes and looked at the flowers in the garden with a smile.

The voices of the two outside the mansion were transmitted to his ears without missing a word. His intention today was to point out Li Qingxian. Since the last contact with Li Qingxian, Li Xianzhi had seen the obstacles in Li Qingxian's cultivation.

Li Qingxian's talent was quite extraordinary. Logically speaking, at this age, not to mention achieving True God, stepping into the Ascension realm was more than enough. People, you can't forget the most fundamental things.

"Go, let's find the Nine Thousand Years Old, I will personally take people to Qingyang County."

Li Qingxian wanted to say something more, but he was interrupted by Li Xianzhi.

Qingyang County, located in the south.

At this moment, it was the golden autumn of October, the harvest season. At this time, a group of mortals were not busy harvesting grain, but were pulling up big flags to challenge the entire Great Chu, which was truly puzzling.

"What to do, what do you say to do? News came from the capital that the Nine Thousand Years Old and that old man Li Qingxian actually came in person. You are trying to kill me." In the garrison mansion of Qingyang County, the garrison general Bailong was scratching his head in anxiety.

A young man seemed not to care about this at all, and the young man's companions were giggling as they watched Bailong's appearance. The young man stood up, comforted Bailong, and said: "General Bailong, what are you afraid of? Isn't it just a eunuch? We will kill him for you, why be so sad, and don't be afraid of outsiders laughing at you."

These people were men and women, five in total. Their dress was strange, not at all like people from the Great Chu Dynasty.

"You say it lightly, I know your background is great, and your cultivation is high. But don't underestimate this Nine Thousand Years Old. You probably don't know what happened in the capital recently, the Empress was under house arrest, the Qing Lian Immortal Mansion was wiped out, guess who did it?"

"Nine Thousand Years Old?" The young man looked at Bailong, not knowing what he wanted to say.

"If it were the Nine Thousand Years Old, it would be fine. The Nine Thousand Years Old has a master you don't know. The Nine Thousand Years Old is now a Half-step Supreme powerhouse, and it is said that his master is even more terrifying. Many people suspect that person is a true Supreme powerhouse. Now do you still dare to underestimate this Nine Thousand Years Old?" Bailong looked fiercely at these guys of unknown origin.

If it weren't for his own misconduct, being caught by the handle, and being tricked, he wouldn't have rashly waded into this muddy water.

"God Monarch!" The young man's eyes finally revealed a trace of shock. There was actually a God Monarch powerhouse hidden in this world. "This is not right, when we came, the news was clearly inquired, the highest in this world is only Half-step God Monarch." The young man cast a puzzled look at his companions.

"Oh, I said Captain, what are you afraid of? Is it strange that there are a few old antiques in such a big world? Besides, we are not going to directly confront the God Monarch powerhouse. We are just here in this world to help others plant seeds. Now that the seeds are sown, we can just withdraw from this world." Another young man spread his hands, his face without any worry at all.

"Xiuqin, what do you think? I remember you have some connection with this world. The domain where your family is located is very close to here, tell me your opinion."

"My purpose is different from yours, I'm just here to find some things. As for your mission, it has nothing to do with me." Bai Xiuqin didn't want to get involved in this matter at all, she just came to see her daughter.

"You..."

Someone seemed very dissatisfied, pointing at Bai Xiuqin with anger on his face.

This white lotus, all the way, relying on her high cultivation, always looked at their group with contempt, really don't know what she was proud of.

Isn't it just a better birth, but now she is not reduced to being with them.

"Alright, Mo, stop arguing."
