Chapter 100: The calculation of the Heavenly Court, the Phoenix cries in Qishan

Seeing this scene, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's face was terribly gloomy.

This was his first time leading troops on an expedition, and he didn't expect the final result to be like this. How could he explain this to the Jade Emperor!

"Marshal, we can't fight anymore!" The Giant Spirit God came to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

"Yes, Marshal, if we continue to fight, we will be wiped out," the Fire Virtue Star Lord also said hurriedly.

The reason they didn't want to fight anymore was partly because the losses were indeed a bit large, and partly because they didn't want to lose the face of the Saints.

Most of the people who joined the battlefield now were ordinary heavenly soldiers and generals, and those with official positions had not moved yet. These people with official positions were all Saint disciples. If the heavenly soldiers and generals were finished, they would have to go on the field. If they won, it would be fine, but if they lost, the face of the Saint sect would be completely gone.

"Retreat!" Seeing everyone say this, and looking at the heavenly soldiers and generals who had no fighting spirit, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King finally gritted his teeth and said retreat.

Upon hearing the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's order, everyone felt as if they had been granted amnesty, and then they turned and ran, fearing that if they ran slowly, they would be caught up by Wen Zhong and others.

"Hahaha!" Seeing the people of the Heavenly Court retreat, Di Xin laughed loudly.

Di Xin was happy, but the Jade Emperor was not happy, because the Heavenly Court lost, and lost miserably.

Just when the Jade Emperor was about to get angry, Daoist Huanglong came to Yaochi and sent a jade slip into the Jade Emperor's hand.

After seeing the content in the jade slip, the Jade Emperor's face turned from cloudy to sunny, and his eyes flashed with a look of determination.

"Your Majesty, what is in this jade slip? It actually makes Your Majesty so happy," the Queen Mother asked curiously.

"Here!" The Jade Emperor did not speak, but handed the jade slip to the Queen Mother.

"This is?" After reading the content in the jade slip, the Queen Mother looked at the Jade Emperor in surprise.

"This is the suggestion Yuanshi Tianzun gave me, and I feel it is very good," the Jade Emperor said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I think we should not blindly do this thing, we should still understand it first," the Queen Mother thought for a moment and said.

"Yes!" The Jade Emperor nodded.

Of course, he could not go rashly. If Di Xin discovered it, he might end up losing his wife and soldiers.

"Go and call Taibai Jinxing." The Jade Emperor said very casually.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The heavenly soldiers guarding Yaochi responded upon hearing the Jade Emperor's voice.

Soon, Taibai Jinxing came to Yaochi.

"You go to Xiqi of the Human Race." The Jade Emperor said upon seeing Taibai Jinxing.

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor say this, Taibai Jinxing was a bit confused. Why did he suddenly ask him to go to Xiqi of the Human Race? Did something happen?

"You go and see what the people there think of the current Human King." Seeing Taibai Jinxing was a bit confused, the Jade Emperor explained.

"Your Majesty, do you want to win over the people of Xiqi? Use the Human Race to govern the Human Race?" Taibai Jinxing suddenly said.

"Exactly!" The Jade Emperor nodded with a smile.

It is no wonder that talking to smart people is effortless. Taibai Jinxing guessed the matter after hearing only one sentence, which made the Jade Emperor very happy.

"Your Majesty, I will go now!" Taibai Jinxing nodded, and after speaking, he exited Yaochi.

"Your Majesty, do you think Xiqi will be the same as we thought?" After Taibai Jinxing left, the Queen Mother asked.

"Didn't this Yin-Shang also grab it from Xia Jie?" The Jade Emperor looked at the Queen Mother with a smile.

Seeing the Jade Emperor say this, the Queen Mother did not say anything more. As long as the Jade Emperor had a plan in mind, it would be fine.

"Xiqi! Good fellow, it is actually still the mode of the Great Investiture Calamity, but the reason has changed," when Pan Huang knew that Taibai Jinxing went to Xiqi, he thought of this for the first time.

"It seems this should be Yuanshi's idea. After all, in the Great Investiture Calamity of the previous life, the Phoenix crying in Qishan, Jiang Ziya, etc., were all his handiwork. In this life, it is estimated that he is calculating behind the scenes," Pan Huang rubbed his chin.

"In this case, it should be the Heavenly Court helping Xiqi, and my Ren Sect helping the Human Race. If the Ren Sect wins, the Human Dao will emerge; if the Heavenly Court wins, the Human Dao will hide, and the Human King will be the Son of Heaven, subordinate to the Heavenly Dao," Pan Huang murmured.

Taibai Jinxing galloped all the way and soon arrived at Xiqi. He transformed into a begging beggar and mixed into Xiqi, starting his intelligence gathering journey.

It didn't take long for Taibai Jinxing to collect the information he wanted, but looking at Xiqi before him, he always had a feeling that it was unreliable.

This Xiqi and Zhaoge, as well as other places, had no comparison. Could this become the sharp blade of the Heavenly Court? Taibai Jinxing was quite suspicious of this.

But suspicion aside, he still had to report the information that should be reported.

After returning to the Heavenly Court, Taibai Jinxing told the Jade Emperor what he had found out.

"Hahaha, good, I'm not afraid that they have no ambition, I'm afraid that they are a monolith. Since the Xibo Hou of Xiqi has the intention to become King, then my Heavenly Court will achieve Xiqi and let him become King," the Jade Emperor stood up and said with a smile.

"But Your Majesty, with Xiqi's current ability, it simply cannot beat Zhaoge." Taibai Jinxing thought he hadn't made it clear, so he emphasized it again.

"It is precisely because of this that I want to help Xiqi. You now arrange for people to go to Xiqi, first spread the reputation and dignity of my Heavenly Court, then help them improve their lives, and then instill in that so-called Xibo Hou the various impacts after Di Xin abolished the sacrifices. When the time is ripe, it will be the time for my Heavenly Court to enter the field," the Jade Emperor looked at Taibai Jinxing with a solemn face.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Taibai Jinxing nodded.

Soon, Di Xin heard a piece of news, saying that Xiqi had restored the sacrifices, and a large number of Mountain Gods and Land Gods had all gathered in Xiqi, which made Di Xin furious. He had gone to great lengths to abolish the illicit sacrifices, but he didn't expect Xiqi to support them again.

"Your Majesty, this matter should not be that simple." Wen Zhong was a disciple of the Ren Sect, and he saw a little more than Di Xin, so he said such words to Di Xin.

"Are you saying that there is a shadow of the Heavenly Court in this?" Di Xin could become the Human King, so he was naturally not a fool. When Wen Zhong said this, he understood.

"Last time they suffered a big loss here, it is impossible not to think of changing. The Human Race is now in its prime, so disintegrating the Human Race from within is the best way," Wen Zhong said in a deep voice.

"Damn it!" After hearing this, Di Xin said coldly, and the wine cup in his hand was directly crushed by him.

"Your Majesty, we have the Saint Master behind us, so we don't fear the Heavenly Court at all," Wen Zhong said at the right time.

"Yes! To avoid similar things from happening, you go and call all the other three town princes to Zhaoge. The time for the audience has come, and I will also take the opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk with them," Di Xin looked at Wen Zhong.

"Good!" Wen Zhong nodded.

Soon, except for the Xibo Hou, the remaining three town princes received Wen Zhong's message, and they stepped on the road to Zhaoge without any hesitation.

In this life, Di Xin was not calculated, in this life, Daji did not enter the palace, in this life, Fei Zhong and You Hun were not corrupt officials, so the Dongbo Hou was very firmly standing on Di Xin's side.

In this life, Pan Huang was the leader of the Ren Sect, in this life, the Human King could practice, in this life, there were many human cultivators, the Beibo Hou was a disciple of the Ren Sect, and was still loyal to Di Xin.

"I didn't expect that even if it comes again, Ji Chang's ambition is still not small!" In the Sheng Huang Palace, Pan Huang said with a smile.

"Husband, do we need to do anything?" Xihe asked.

"No need, we just need to watch," Pan Huang shook his head.

"By the way, I will go out for a while during this time, you keep an eye on Zhaoge and Xiqi," Pan Huang suddenly said.

"Yes!" Xihe and Changxi nodded.

Mount Buzhou, Pangu Palace.

Pan Huang looked at the Wu Clan in front of him, his eyes full of bitterness. In fact, he had also thought about letting the Wu Clan live a good life, he even thought about letting the Wu Clan replace the Human Race as the protagonist of heaven and earth.

But Pan Huang did not have a system. Although he was a transmigrator, there were very few things he could change. Being able to continue the Wu Clan and let the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Great Witches serve in the Underworld was already Pan Huang's greatest ability.

He also thought about letting the Wu Clan run rampant in the prehistoric world like in the prehistoric novels of his previous life, and let the Wu Clan become the protagonist of heaven and earth, but he couldn't do it. After all, the Heavenly Dao was still the Heavenly Dao, and he was still living in this prehistoric world.

"Perhaps I should be the most failed transmigrator. As a member of the Wu Clan, I did not strengthen the Wu Clan, but instead strengthened the Human Race." Sitting in front of the Pangu statue, Pan Huang murmured to himself.

What he could do now was to let the prehistoric world shatter during the final battle of the war between heaven and man, and then isolate the place where Mount Buzhou was located, so that the Wu Clan could appear in the sunlight.

"Father God! Did I do something wrong? But my ability only goes this far! I also want the Wu Clan to live well, but I really tried my best." Pan Huang looked up at the Pangu statue, and at this time he took off all his disguises.

After a long time, Pan Huang sorted out his mood and stood up again.

"Father God, the Wu Clan will definitely descend on the prehistoric world again, I promise." Pan Huang looked at the Pangu statue with burning eyes, and then left the Pangu Palace.

In fact, as people around Pan Huang, Changxi and Xihe had long discovered that Pan Huang was not right. Since Pan Huang became a Saint, they found that Pan Huang would often be in a daze alone.

But they didn't know how to comfort Pan Huang. After all, Pan Huang didn't tell them what his troubles were.

But since becoming a Saint, Pan Huang ran to Mount Buzhou more frequently. They could also guess a little bit, which made them even more unable to persuade him. In the end, they could only pretend not to see it, and then think of ways to make Pan Huang happy every day.

When Pan Huang returned, it was ten years later. Xiqi had changed a lot with the support of the Heavenly Court, and Ji Chang's ambition had also been cultivated under the subtle influence of the Heavenly Court.

In Ji Chang's words, the Yin-Shang's country was also grabbed from Xia Jie's hands. Since Cheng Tang's country could come this way, why couldn't I grab it from Cheng Tang's hands again?

At this time, Ji Chang had already become the appearance of the Heavenly Court, and the people of the entire Xiqi had also become the appearance of the Heavenly Court at this time.

"The time is ripe!" In Mount Kunlun, Yuanshi Tianzun murmured to himself.

At the same time, in Yaochi of the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor also murmured to himself.

After Yuanshi Tianzun finished speaking, he pointed his finger, and a golden light flew out of his hand, and then appeared in Xiqi.

When this golden light came to Xiqi, it transformed into a phoenix. In the surprised eyes of the people of Xiqi, this phoenix let out a loud cry, and then said eight words.

"Yin-Shang is unrighteous, Xiqi shall flourish!" After saying these eight words, the phoenix turned into light spots and disappeared over Xiqi.

The Phoenix Ancestor and the Huang Ancestor in the Immortal Volcano had livid faces. Yuanshi Tianzun actually used the name of the Phoenix Clan to stir up internal chaos in the Human Race, but then they sighed again. Now they were suppressing the Immortal Volcano, and they really had no way to find Yuanshi Tianzun to reason.

"Rest assured, someone will replace us and ask Yuanshi for the cause and effect," the Huang Ancestor said with a smile, as if thinking of something.

"Why?" the Phoenix Ancestor asked.

"Our children are now in the Ren Sect," the Huang Ancestor said with a smile.

"So that's it!" the Phoenix Ancestor said with a smile.

After the Phoenix cried in Qishan, Ji Chang began to recruit soldiers and buy horses. At the same time, Ji Chang also posted a list of recruiting talents, wanting to recruit some cultivators. After all, there were not a few cultivators in Yin-Shang, and the disciples of the Ren Sect were basically serving in Cheng Tang.

But now he had the help of the Heavenly Court and had the capital to wrestle with Cheng Tang, so why should he still be a town prince?

"Taibai Jinxing, you go and send a message to those Saint disciples, let them go to Xiqi to help Ji Chang," the Jade Emperor said to Taibai Jinxing.

"If they are unwilling, you tell them to go find their Master," the Jade Emperor thought for a moment and said to Taibai Jinxing.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Taibai Jinxing nodded.

In Xiqi, a few days after the list of recruiting talents was posted, many capable people and strangers came to Ji Chang, which made Ji Chang very happy.

The news of Ji Chang soon reached Di Xin's ears. After hearing this news, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, but endless anger flashed in his eyes.

"Let me see how much ability your Xiqi has," Di Xin murmured to himself.

When Di Xin received the news, Wen Zhong also received the news of Xiqi. His performance was exactly the same as Di Xin's. In his view, Xiqi was just a bunch of chickens and dogs. Even with the help of the Heavenly Court, it was still a bunch of chickens and dogs.

When other ministers in the Zhaoge court heard this news, there was no expression on their faces, but anger flashed in their eyes. What is this? This is betrayal, this is betrayal of Yin-Shang, this is betrayal of the Human Race.

The people of Yin-Shang were filled with righteous indignation. The people of Zhaoge were very satisfied with their current life, but Xiqi wanted to disrupt their life, which made them impossible to be willing, so when they knew that Xiqi was preparing to rebel, the people of Zhaoge came to the government office to sign up for the army one after another.

When Wen Zhong and the others knew this news, a smile appeared on their faces. I didn't expect Xiqi to make such a fuss, which actually made Zhaoge's army grow a lot.

"In those days, the Yellow Emperor fought against Chi You and cleared a batch of human moths. Maybe we should also take this opportunity of the struggle between the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao to clear the inside of the Human Race again," Wen Zhong looked at the direction of Xiqi, and a flickering light flashed in his eyes.

Just when Ji Chang was training soldiers and horses, Pan Huang also called all the disciples to the Sheng Huang Palace.

"Since the Heavenly Court has already made a move, our Ren Sect cannot fall behind. You all go down the mountain too, go to Zhaoge to find Yun Xiao and the others, and by the way, bring all your disciples," Pan Huang said to Zhao Gongming.

"Yes, Master!" Zhao Gongming nodded.

"Go!" Pan Huang waved his hand.

"Greetings, Senior Brother." After seeing Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiao sisters bowed to him.

"Greetings, Senior Uncle." Kong Xuan and Dapeng also bowed to Zhao Gongming.

Nezha, Yang Jian, and others also bowed to the Three Xiao sisters.

"Senior Brother, did Master ask you to come?" Yun Xiao asked.

"Yes, Master said that since the Heavenly Court has already started to act, we cannot fall behind, right?" Zhao Gongming said with a smile.

"Yes!" Yun Xiao nodded.

When going to court the next day, Yun Xiao introduced Zhao Gongming and others to Di Xin. Seeing this, Di Xin hurriedly got up to salute. Zhao Gongming and others hurriedly dodged. Di Xin was the Human King after all, and they simply did not dare to accept Di Xin's salute.

"Human King, please get up. We are disciples of the Ren Sect, and it is reasonable for us to come to help the Human King," Zhao Gongming said with a smile.

Afterwards, Di Xin arranged identities for Zhao Gongming and the others. At the request of Zhao Gongming and others, no real power identity was arranged for them, and the third-generation disciples of the Ren Sect were all arranged in the army.

"Almost there, now just wait for the movement of Xiqi," Zhao Gongming looked at the direction of Xiqi and murmured to himself.

Xiqi was also ready, the manifesto had been written, just waiting for the auspicious day to sacrifice to heaven and send troops.

Just when Xiqi was preparing for war, Pan Huang was discussing the arrangements for the New Year and the Eve with the Great Golden Crow.

Nowadays, there are not many festivals in the Nine Provinces, only the birthday of Nüwa, the birthday of the Three Emperors, and the birthday of the Ancestor of Literature, as well as the birthday of Pan Huang, the Saint Master. After that, there are no other large festivals.

In order to introduce the concept of New Year's Eve and New Year to the prehistoric world, and to get the merit, Pan Huang found the Great Golden Crow, which could also allow the Demon Race to gain some merit.

Pan Huang did this to allow the Golden Core Great Dao of the Human Race to be inherited. If the Demon Race declined, then there would be no good blood essence for the Demon Transformation in the Golden Core Great Dao in the future. Without blood essence, the strength of the Human Race would be greatly reduced.
