554: Chapter 195: The One Who Solves the Problem [Third Update, Seeking Votes~] 554: Chapter 195: The One Who Solves the Problem [Third Update, Seeking Votes~] ‘I am willing to burn my meager life, to illuminate truth and justice!’

Wang Shan’s words echoed long in Li Ping’an’s ears.

Li Ping’an could slightly empathize with Wang Shan’s feelings.

The Wang Shan of those years, was just like the current him;

Naturally, although his cultivation wasn’t as high as Wang Shan’s, because of Yun Zhongzi’s teacher’s favoritism, his background was somewhat more substantial than Wang Shan’s.

Later, Wang Shan encountered great resistance, and after the Holy Mother left, the Human Race was left without a Sect Hierarch-level expert, hence Fenghou had no choice but to abandon the second extermination of the Ten Thousand Demon Heaven, and Wang Shan became a sacrificed pawn.

‘And me?’

Li Ping’an asked himself.

He had now genuinely felt the astonishing effects of his father’s Great Fortune.

Because he and his father pioneered the assembly line technique of using artifacts to refine artifacts – a concept unheard of in the Desolate Era – which happened to draw the attention of his teacher, Yun Zhongzi;

And because of the existence of Yun Zhongzi behind him, the Human Emperor wanted to use the power of the Chan Teaching and favored him in every way;

Now, with the authority given by the Human Emperor, he was able to move in and out of the Eastern Alliance freely, could directly converse and laugh with the various Vice Alliance Hierarchs, and had become a new power elite unreachable in the eyes of others.

Ride the momentum, leverage the power;

If the power were taken away, what then should he do?

Li Ping’an sighed softly with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sky ahead, and strolled to the front end of the Azure Dragon Cloud Boat, overlooking the vast stars above the Southern Continent.

The brilliance of the starry sky was cast upon the dome of the Skycutter Great Array, creating a tranquil scene akin to a mirror-like sea.

“Are you troubled?”

A soft voice entered Li Ping’an’s ears.

He turned his head to look at his master who had approached him, watching the master leaning on the railing, with those eyes that harbored not the slightest trouble or dust of the mortal world, watching over this disciple who always caused worry.

Li Ping’an smiled and said, “There’s nothing to be troubled about, just thinking of Wang Shan’s ordeal, feeling a bit sorrowful.”

“Hmm, he indeed had a rough time,”

Qing Su said:

“Ten Thousand Demon Heaven is the largest organization of Demon Cultivators, surely filled with powerful experts.

I’ve heard they are quite arrogant, not even putting the Eastern Alliance in their eyes.

“If you encounter them in the future, I’d rather protect you personally.”

“Thank you, master…”

“I’m not speaking out of turn here,”

The loud voice of Tianli the elder rose, as he and two Golden Immortal war generals strolled over.

“Qing Su the combat envoy is indeed not weak in strength, but she is still not at the peak that Wang Shan reached.

Wang Shan was ambushed by an expert in an instant, and our side’s experts didn’t even have time to react,”

Tianli sighed:

“If Ten Thousand Demon Heaven were to really get tough, they could invite a Daluo Golden Immortal to sit in for them.

“I remember it all too clearly, the first time we encircled Ten Thousand Demon Heaven, I followed Minister Feng leading hundreds of experts in pursuit of the remnants of Ten Thousand Demon Heaven.

In the end, they fled deep into the Western Continent, into that master’s battleground filled with the glow of dawn skies, and we?

We could only withdraw at the gate, staring angrily at the remnants of Ten Thousand Demon Heaven.

“At that time, I even felt an extremely strong Great Dao clashing in the heavens, which was undoubtedly the Holy Mother joining hands with several Human Emperors.

“But the result was not to everyone’s satisfaction; Ten Thousand Demon Heaven still remained.

“Now, in these recent six thousand years or so, Ten Thousand Demon Heaven has begun to stir again, but we won’t be able to attack that battleground.”

The two Golden Immortal war generals also looked quite frustrated.

Li Ping’an crossed his arms and clicked his tongue lightly: “So, senior, are you sometimes deliberately playing dumb, instead of actually favoring those people?”

“You’re the one playing dumb!”

Tianli roared:

“You tell me where the old man has ever played dumb in the past!

“Only you, young man, dare to say such words; otherwise, this old man would have to hang you up and give you a good beating!”

Li Ping’an grinned sheepishly and quickly changed the subject.

“Senior, where do you think the clue to the Holy Mother’s departure might be?”

“In the Holy Mother Palace, of course.

Isn’t that obvious?”

The elder Tianli walked beside Li Ping’an, also crossing his arms and looking up at the sky.

His beard was much fuller than Xu Sheng’s, shining with a silvery white luster.

Tianli sighed: “If you really can find the whereabouts of the Holy Mother, that’s indeed a great achievement.

The position of the Alliance Hierarch should be yours.”

“That’s too difficult.”

Li Ping’an retorted:

“Senior, do you think I, a mere Heaven and Earth Bridge realm cultivator, can really accomplish something even the Human Emperor cannot do?”

Tianli clicked his tongue: “Ah?

Otherwise?

Why did His Majesty entrust you with this matter?

His Majesty must have His Majesty’s reasoning.”

“At that time, His Majesty was merely employing a compromise,”

Li Ping’an sighed deeply, continuing with the matter at hand:

“I believe that the clue is on that Wordless Stele.

“Isn’t that obvious?”

Tianli spoke calmly:

“The Wordless Stele harbors the Dao Charm of the Creation Path.

Perhaps, if someone were to comprehend the Creation Path, they would know what clue the Holy Mother left behind.

“The problem now is, who can comprehend the Creation Path.”

Tianli, Qing Su, the distant Xing He and Xinghan, the two Golden Immortal war generals, and even the far-off standing immortal soldiers all looked towards Li Ping’an at the same time.

Li Ping’an had several black lines on his forehead.

Who gave these people the illusion that he had such high comprehension, able to contemplate the Great Dao of a Sect Hierarch or a Quasi-Saint at the level of Heaven and Earth Bridge realm?

He hadn’t even fully comprehended the Great Dao of Clouds!

Right now, at most, he was just capable of arm-wrestling with a True Immortal!

These people really!

What they themselves could not achieve, still, they pinned their hopes on someone else!

“Don’t look at me!”

Li Ping’an muttered discontentedly:

“Currently, even becoming an immortal is difficult for me, and the reason, as you know, I won’t mention again.

Aspiring to comprehend the Creation Path is basically not possible.

“My visit to the Holy Mother Palace this time is just a try, and thereby I would have at least attempted to complete His Majesty’s command.”
