Chapter 838: Not Worried

~8 min read 1,488 words

"The Great Qin has made a move." When Zhang Liang came to the top of Taohua Peak again, Su Fan also woke up from his seclusion.

The great calamity of the Jiuzhou had begun, and evil qi filled the sky, but fortunately, it had nothing to do with Su Fan, an outsider. The evil qi of this great calamity could not affect him.

After all, the Universe Mirror—this thing was at least an innate spiritual treasure, or even at the level of an innate supreme treasure.

With it suppressing Su Fan's entire body, he was not disturbed by the great calamity of evil qi, and his cultivation proceeded as usual.

The spiritual energy of the Earth Immortal World was naturally not something the Yuanyang World could compare to.

Even if it was down and out, it was still refined from fragments of the Primordial World. This acquired spiritual energy was much higher than the spiritual energy of the Yuanyang World.

Therefore, cultivation was also easier.

And the Earth Immortal World was more advanced, so perceiving the laws of heaven and earth was naturally a bit more relaxed; of course, this was only relative.

However, in such an environment, Su Fan naturally did not slack off.

Over the past few years, his cultivation realm had improved quite a bit, especially after obtaining some of the Confucian heritage.

Su Fan's gains were even greater.

Of course, as Su Fan cultivated to the present, when he discussed the Dao with Zhang Liang, some of his cultivation concepts also provided the other party with quite a bit of supplementation.

The two often discussed the Dao with each other, and after several times, their gains were mutual, and their realms improved quite a bit.

Therefore, Zhang Liang also liked to come to Su Fan's place.

Through Su Fan's arrangement, his Taohua Peak was filled with the charming fragrance of peach blossoms, and the red of the peach blossoms reflecting the human face set off the beauty of the scenery here even more.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Su Fan suddenly asked.

"That's right, they made a move."

"And they even sent that general, Li Xin, to take action."

"Li Xin."

Hearing this, Su Fan was no stranger to this person. Whether in history or in the Great Qin world he had experienced, Li Xin was a fierce general.

His ability was not bad either; perhaps compared to Wang Jian and his son, he was relatively inferior, but in the Great Qin military sequence, he had always been considered a high-level general.

"But looking at you, you didn't succeed?"

Su Fan then looked at Zhang Liang.

"It seems nothing can escape your eyes."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang smiled and said: "It did indeed fail. There were experts from the Heavenly Court protecting them on the side."

"Who did they arrange?"

Hearing this, Su Fan immediately became interested.

"Taibai Jinxing, Li Changgeng."

"It was actually him."

Su Fan knew this person; he was the Jade Emperor's confidant. Of course, he was most famous for the beginning of the Journey to the West, the times he descended to the mortal world to invite Sun Wukong.

He looked like a white-haired, decrepit old man, but if anyone dared to ignore his strength, that would be too short-sighted.

After all, how could he become the Jade Emperor's confidant without a bit of strength?

"This person and that Li Xin both have Golden Core level combat power. With him blocking, Li Xin had no way."

It was not that the Great Qin did not have stronger people, but the Great Qin now needed manpower everywhere.

There were more and more rebels in the south, and Wang Jian and his son had already been dispatched.

Bai Qi and these veteran generals were guarding Xianyang City. Although the Heavenly Court did not dare to easily descend to the mortal world, who knew if the Jade Emperor would come up with a plan to pull the firewood from under the cauldron.

If they really broke Xianyang City, then for the Heavenly Court, paying a certain price was not unacceptable.

Therefore, the guards at Xianyang City had to be stronger, and experts like Bai Qi could not easily leave Xianyang City.

That was why Li Xin appeared in Pei County.

It was a pity that he still failed.

"You don't look disappointed."

Su Fan looked at Zhang Liang.

"Aren't you the same?"

"You forgot, I am a Daoist, a person outside the world. How the Great Qin fares has nothing to do with me."

Su Fan spoke from his heart. If the Great Qin succeeded, he would naturally be happy for the Great Qin; as for failure, it was also normal.

In the Primordial Mythical World, small trends could be changed, but the great trend could not be reversed.

He felt that there was a very high probability that the Great Qin could not succeed.

So he had long been mentally prepared that Liu Bang, this Emperor Star, could not be slain before he even appeared.

Wouldn't that make the Heavenly Court look too useless?

This is not a coordinated performance like in *Journey to the West*, where the Heavenly Court appeared somewhat incompetent; the current Heavenly Court is still extremely powerful and assertive.

"Hehe!"

Zhang Liang had learned Su Fan's usual smile and also gave him one.

"What are you laughing at? You are an orthodox Confucian disciple, cultivating oneself, regulating the family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. Although the Great Qin does not value Confucianism now, it at least conforms to the peaceful world your Confucianism hopes for."

"Now that the Heavenly Court wants to destroy the peace that this world has worked so hard to obtain, are you willing?"

"What's more, the Great Qin's actions benefit the human race."

Confucianism is attached to political power and the human race; naturally, it hopes that the political power is more stable and the human race is more powerful.

"The Emperor Star has escaped, aren't you worried?"

"That is the Emperor Star, an Emperor Star controlled by the Imperial Court."

"So what?"

"Now that this Emperor Star has been discovered, since it has been discovered, the price it needs to pay to exert its effect will be tenfold, or even a hundredfold."

"Do you think the Great Qin will do nothing?"

Zhang Liang looked confident; in fact, he knew more. Li Xin had been chasing the Emperor Star.

The Heavenly Court's Emperor Star had been exposed, and the role of this chess piece had greatly diminished.

Originally, they hid this Emperor Star, let its python pave the way, contend with the Great Qin's dragon qi, and continuously consume the Great Qin's dragon qi.

The dissipated dragon qi could continuously nourish this Emperor Star, allowing it to develop and grow, and finally, it could contend with the Great Qin's Black Dragon.

At that time, their Heavenly Court could openly dispatch divine generals to descend to the mortal world to help the Emperor Star fight the Great Qin.

The backlash from the human race's luck would also be reduced to the limit.

And once they won, they would instead harvest a wave of human luck.

However, they never expected that this Emperor Star would be exposed before it had even awakened.

Next, if they wanted to implement their plan, the price they would have to pay would increase tenfold or a hundredfold, and it might not even succeed.

After all, the Great Qin was not a fool and would certainly keep an eye on the Emperor Star.

As for descending another Emperor Star, it was not so simple. The reincarnation of an Emperor Star involved the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

And the Six Paths of Reincarnation was the most important place in the Difu.

The previous Emperor Star also relied on the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha to secretly descend to the mortal world of the Jiuzhou.

It was difficult for Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha to help once, and even harder to want to help a second time.

Moreover, the Difu was controlled by that Lady; even if Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha was willing to take action, it was not certain that he could help achieve it a second time without anyone noticing.

Once discovered, the new Emperor Star would have no meaning.

So wanting to bury a second Emperor Star and giving up on this Red Emperor was not so easy.

Now the Heavenly Court was caught in a dilemma.

This was also the reason why Zhang Liang was relaxed now. At the moment, the Great Qin indeed had the upper hand; as long as they kept a close eye on that Emperor Star and didn't let it develop and grow, that would be enough.

There was no need to do too much.

With Li Xin in constant pursuit, it would even be difficult for that Emperor Star to awaken. ===== CHAPTER 839 =====
