Chapter 498: I will exterminate your nine generations

The Emperor, looking like a man terminally ill, had nevertheless descended the hall in a few steps under such circumstances, which was enough to show his respect for Marshal Tianpeng.

Not to mention any other reasons, others could see that the Emperor’s body looked like it had little time left, and as the Emperor himself, he was naturally even clearer about it.

Now, because of Marshal Tianpeng’s appearance, there was a chance for his body to recover, so how could the Emperor himself not grasp it tightly?

So in this situation, it was not surprising that the Emperor was so respectful to Marshal Tianpeng.

"According to my deductions, seven days from now is an auspicious day for this world. I ask that you personally preside over the Heaven Sacrifice..."

Marshal Tianpeng had come in person this time to notify the Emperor of this matter.

Originally, if one were to follow the situation of the *Liaozhai* world, an auspicious day for this world would likely be a rare occurrence in decades.

After all, this world was dominated by the Demon Path, so naturally, auspicious days were very scarce for the human race.

Of course, the opposite was true for the demon and devil paths; it could be said that for a full third of the year, there were auspicious days.

However, because Marshal Tianpeng had previously dealt a heavy blow to the Demon Path, auspicious days for the human race in the *Liaozhai* world had increased.

Compared to the auspicious days that were hard to come by in decades before, now there would be two or three in a year for the human race.

It could be said that the current situation was already a tremendous improvement.

"Demon Dao!"

Li Qingyun, who had failed to kill himself, pointed at Marshal Tianpeng and said sternly: "I am acting on behalf of Heaven! You stopping me now is proof of your guilty conscience!"

Marshal Tianpeng did not care about this stubborn old man at all, and even ignored him directly.

If it were not for the mission to protect the human race, Marshal Tianpeng would not have taken action when Li Qingyun sought death earlier.

"Audacious Li Qingyun!"

The one who spoke now was no longer the eunuch beside the Emperor, but the Emperor himself:

"Marshal Tianpeng’s descent to the mortal realm is merely to restore a bright and clear universe to the world. Everything he does is for the righteous path."

The Emperor was thoroughly angered by Li Qingyun at this moment. One must know that whether the Emperor could extend his life now depended entirely on Marshal Tianpeng’s favor.

If Marshal Tianpeng were to flick his sleeves and leave because of Li Qingyun’s words, and no longer extend the Emperor’s life.

Then it could be said that Li Qingyun was the Emperor’s enemy.

'Old thing, if it weren't for the fact that you still have some use, for this sentence alone, I would exterminate your nine generations!'

Although the Emperor thought this way in his heart, the most important thing now was to appease Marshal Tianpeng’s mood, so the Emperor spoke again:

"Before Marshal Tianpeng descended, the imperial court, the world, and the people were all suffering from the harassment of demons. Looking at it, one could say the people were living in misery."

"What’s more, my dignified capital was actually occupied by a great demon, and the pillars of the state, especially you, Li Qingyun, were all played in its palms..."

"And now? Look at it now. Because Marshal Tianpeng descended, he protected our capital. During this period, not only have demons retreated, but he has also returned a bright and clear universe to the capital. Could it be that what Marshal Tianpeng does is not the righteous path?"

At this moment, the Emperor was truly furious. For a time, not to mention the civil and military officials, even Li Qingyun did not dare to speak again.

However, the eunuch beside the Emperor spoke up at this moment: **CHAPTER 870**

"He is just a stubborn old man. Marshal Tianpeng, please do not be angry. For the Heaven Sacrifice in seven days, His Majesty will definitely preside over it personally, and he will also establish the Tianpeng Temple as the state-protecting religion..."

One of the previous requirements between Marshal Tianpeng and the imperial court was to report any news of demons, ghosts, or monsters appearing within the dynasty’s jurisdiction.

However, Marshal Tianpeng had overestimated the speed of information dissemination in the *Liaozhai* world.

There had already been dozens of times where it was just reported to Marshal Tianpeng, but on the other side, the place where the incident occurred was already littered with corpses, and the mortals had been wiped out by demons.

Although Marshal Tianpeng arrived afterward and eliminated the demons, ghosts, and monsters.

But one must know that Marshal Tianpeng’s mission was to protect a portion of the human race, not to eliminate demons, ghosts, and monsters. Therefore, even if he eliminated them, for Marshal Tianpeng, the mission had failed.

So, based on the inspiration from the appearance of the Tianpeng Temple.

Marshal Tianpeng now changed his approach, having the Emperor issue an order to build a Tianpeng Temple in every county office in the kingdom.

In this way, Marshal Tianpeng could use the Tianpeng Temples spread throughout the country to monitor demons, ghosts, and monsters, thereby protecting a portion of the human race.

As for why Marshal Tianpeng wanted the Emperor to personally preside over the Heaven Sacrifice on the auspicious day seven days later!

The reason was to draw out the humanity of the *Liaozhai* world.

Although humanity had long been extinguished, it did not mean that humanity could not reappear.

One must know that the foundation of humanity is the human race, so as long as the human race exists, humanity can reappear.

It was just that now, under the suppression of demons, ghosts, and monsters, the human race could be said to be living in dire straits.

Therefore, even if humanity could reappear, in the face of such a situation, it would not dare to appear easily.

After all, once humanity appeared in such a situation, it would face suppression from the Demon Path, and if its strength were insufficient, it would even be devoured.

But now, with the existence of Marshal Tianpeng, even if humanity were weak, it would have no worries.

After all, the Demon Path was an existence that was vulnerable before Marshal Tianpeng. With humanity gaining the protection of Marshal Tianpeng, it could be said to be basically foolproof in this *Liaozhai* world.

Of course, Marshal Tianpeng doing this was not for the sake of doing good deeds for the human race.

Once humanity was reborn, Marshal Tianpeng could fully utilize humanity to monitor all the humans in the *Liaozhai* world.

At that time, once demons, ghosts, or monsters appeared anywhere threatening the human race, Marshal Tianpeng would be able to know at the first moment.

One must know that the *Liaozhai* world is very vast, and the country where Marshal Tianpeng is currently located only occupies a small piece of territory. **CHAPTER 871**
