Chapter 147

Nine Provinces, Tianmen.

Di Shitian smiled playfully upon seeing Jiang Yuyan on the ranking list.

"I never expected this, she actually hid herself in Great Qin. No wonder I haven't been able to find a trace of her for so many years."

Di Shitian said with a smile, stroking his chin.

Ever since he was injured by Wu Wudi back then, damaging his body's essence, a portion of the phoenix blood within Di Shitian had flowed away.

This caused his body to begin aging, and he needed to stay within Tianmen for long periods, wearing an ice-sculpted mask to delay his aging.

He wanted to seize that sacred object from the Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires to return to his peak.

"My God Di Shitian, may I ask what your orders are?"

The Divine Mother Luo Xian asked respectfully.

"Has there been any news of the sacred object from the Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires?"

Di Shitian asked.

"The spies in the Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires have searched everywhere, even the secret chambers, but still haven't found any trace of the sacred object."

"This subordinate believes the sacred object should be with the Saintess Jiang Yuyan."

Luo Xian voiced her speculation.

Di Shitian nodded and said, "That makes sense."

"You and the Ice Emperor go to Great Qin to find Jiang Yuyan and bring the sacred object back for me."

Luo Xian said with some concern, "Entering Great Qin directly might attract the attention of Great Qin."

Di Shitian said dismissively, "If anyone dares to block you, just kill them. Within the Nine Provinces, there is no one I hold in my eyes."

He styled himself as a god and had always felt he could manipulate the world at will and toy with everyone within the Nine Provinces as he pleased.

"As you command!"

"My God Di Shitian, how should we handle the Immortal God?"

"He is also drooling over the sacred object of the Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires; I fear this operation will be hard to hide from him."

Luo Xian continued to ask.

Although she was the Divine Mother of Tianmen and a disciple of Di Shitian.

She held a pivotal position within the entire Tianmen.

However, in front of Di Shitian, she still had to ask about every detail.

Only by doing so would she avoid being blamed when handling matters.

She had personally experienced the pain of being punished by Di Shitian, and she never wanted to go through it a second time in this life.

"The Immortal God is merely a clown."

"Do not pay him any mind!"

"Sooner or later, I will destroy him."

Di Shitian said with great disdain.

Originally, he thought he was the only immortal in the Nine Provinces.

Later, he discovered the existence of the God-Searching Palace, and ever since then, Di Shitian had viewed the Immortal God as a thorn in his side.

Di Shitian could not tolerate anyone else in the world being immortal like him.

God-Searching Palace.

The Immortal God slammed the table in front of him, shattering it.

"Damn it, this woman is hidden truly deep; she actually hid in Great Qin."

"Does she really think that just because of this, I will easily give up?"

"That sacred object will definitely be mine!"

"Great Priest, take your men and go to Great Qin immediately."

"This time, you must bring Jiang Yuyan back; I want to interrogate her personally."

The Immortal God said loudly.

"As you command!"

After the Great Priest left, the Immortal God sat at the table, seething with anger.

Just at this moment, a woman's voice spoke.

"You will never get the sacred object in this lifetime, Immortal God; one day you will be killed by someone!"

The Immortal God said angrily, "Bai Suzhen, shut up!"

The person speaking was none other than the Demon Lord of the God-Searching Palace, Bai Suzhen.

She was originally the wife of the Immortal God and had died in childbirth; to commemorate his wife, the Immortal God named his daughter Bai Suzhen as well.

Later on, the Immortal God spent immense effort to resurrect his wife, Bai Suzhen.

Originally, the two were very loving, but later, their philosophies diverged.

This was not the most fatal reason.

The most important thing, which led to their complete split, was that the Immortal God had violated his own daughter on a dark and windy night.

Later, the daughter fell in love with Xu Xian, and the Immortal God sent the Chief Protector of the God-Searching Palace, Zen Master Fahai, with a begging bowl to destroy his daughter.

The begging bowl, along with the Peerless Sword, the Snow-Drinking Saber, and the Ice Soul, were known as the Four Great Divine Stones.

Fahai was a high monk and did not do so, instead giving the bowl to Xu Xian; as a result, Xu Xian was too cowardly and used the bowl to kill his own wife.

This incident directly led to the Immortal God and Bai Suzhen becoming sworn enemies.

Relying on his powerful strength, the Immortal God sealed Bai Suzhen away.

"You killed my daughter, I will not let you off!"

Bai Suzhen said viciously.

"That was her own fault; defying the will of a god means she must die!"

The Immortal God's tone and attitude were extremely firm.

For someone like him who has lived for a long time, his mind would inevitably develop problems.

The most representative examples of this were him and Di Shitian.

Great Tang Imperial Palace.

When Yuan Tiangang saw the name "Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires," his mood was clearly not quite right.

"I didn't expect them to have survived that catastrophe back then."

"I just don't know if that thing is still in their hands."

Yuan Tiangang said faintly.

"Master Yuan, do you know this Sacred Land of Seven Emotions and Six Desires?"

Li Shimin asked with great curiosity.

It was the first time he had seen such a strange name.

"When the Great Han Jianghu was at its peak, this sect was hailed as the most evil demonic cult."

"Back then, when all the nations joined forces to deal with the Great Han Jianghu, it was mostly because of this sect; their methods were truly unimaginable."

Yuan Tiangang said.

"What is so magical about this sect? To be able to make the Great Han Jianghu decline to this day."
