812: Chapter 283 Heavenly Emperor’s Speech at the Conference_2 812: Chapter 283 Heavenly Emperor’s Speech at the Conference_2 “Your Majesty, the obstruction of the Human Race lies behind the Great Sects supported by the Great Demons!”

Li Jing, standing in the third row, took a deep breath, stepped forward, and with a respectful bow, loudly said:

“Your Majesty!

The obstruction of the Human Race!

Externally comes from the scheming of the Great Sects, and internally from the menace of Demon Cultivators, yet, internally and externally are essentially unified, both stemming from the West!”

“Indeed.”

Li Ping’an nodded with a smile, descended from the cloud, and stood on the high platform in front of everyone, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, and spoke calmly with a chuckle:

“You all are aware of such matters, which has saved me a great deal of talking.

Indeed, the Great Sects’ schemes.

Within the Human Race, sages are revered, propriety and integrity are cherished, loyal hearts and courageous spirits are valued, but when viewed by formidable foes outside the Human Race, we’re still seen as prey to be pounced upon for their blood and soul consumption.

To simply say ‘Great Sects’ schemes’ seems to legitimize everything, as if it were acceptable and permissible.

Ridiculous.

These Great Sects still adhere to the behavioral norms of the ancient and archaic times; in their eyes, there are only the strong, because they cannot defeat the strong;

In their eyes, the weak are but fertilizer for plants, human-shaped Magic Artifacts for creating incense fire, because they can trample upon the weak at will.

You may all consider, has the Human Race ever wronged the Western Sect?

The eyes of everyone were ablaze as they looked at Li Ping’an, many shook their heads subconsciously.

Li Ping’an sighed:

“The Human Race has merely denied some of the excessive demands of the Western Sect, like establishing them as the religion of the Human Race, like turning the entire Human Race into incense fire Magic Artifacts for them.

After that, the Western Sect flew into a fury out of humiliation.

They incited the ancient Hundred Clans to besiege the Human Race, and even plotted behind the scenes to create a demon king like Chiyou, leading to the destruction of the golden age in war.

Since then, they have used the power of the Sect Hierarch to forcibly cut off the Human Race’s destiny, causing the Human Race, though narrowly winning with a desperate counterattack, not to reap full rewards, causing the heroes who fell into demonization in ancient times to merely end in melancholy, their rage turning into ceaseless sighs.

Nowadays, the Western Sect still wants to support the Hundred Clans and suppress the Human Race.

Why do they act this way?

Such matters should not be told to you, but today, I feel that I must inform all of you.

What the Western Sect wants to do is to domesticate beings, to gather the weak, to have all creatures between heaven and earth acknowledge their teachings, to constrain the Heavenly Dao by that, and through this, to let their Sect Hierarch achieve sanctity and immortality!”

He spoke sternly and rebuked:

“The justice upheld by the Human Race is might without oppression, not the weak wielding the knife against the weaker!

If the West succeeds, what of the Heavenly Dao in this world?

What of any fairness!

I fear that then the world will swiftly become desolate!”

The Immortals below were stirred in an indescribable way.

Buzzing discussions arose from all around, as many Qi Cultivators, hearing these things for the first time, couldn’t help but discuss with those next to them.

Li Ping’an quietly waited a moment, and seizing the emotional atmosphere, decisively continued to call out:

“The obstacles faced by the Human Race are not merely those along their path to greatness; in fact, there are even greater predicaments.

The West holds the Hundred Clans hostage, the Hundred Tribes’ Great Demons hold the Hundred Tribes’ Creatures hostage, and beyond this ruling world, there lie the Three Thousand Worlds, with countless millions of creatures!

Among these creatures, none are aware of the Human Race’s Qi Cultivators in this primary world, none know the source of the Human Race lies here, ignorant of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, unaware of the meaning of the Way of Humanity, they are bred like livestock, drained of their blood, living daily in fear, serving as blood food for the demons cultivated by the Western Sect, serving as Magic Artifacts for gathering incense and merit for the Western Sect, becoming pawns for the Western Sect to constrain the Heavenly Dao!

And who knows when the Western Sect will roll out a sky full of Dao Soldiers from the Three Thousand Worlds to extinguish the flame of the Human Race!”

The expressions of the Qi Cultivators changed dramatically.

Many experts also frowned in deep thought.

“Now you must understand why the Human Emperor and Holy Mother are so eager to establish the Heavenly Court!”

Li Ping’an’s voice returned to calm as he continued:

“I, Li Ping’an, was fortunate to resonate with the Heavenly Dao and became a candidate for the Heavenly Emperor, receiving many gifts from the Human Emperor.

His Majesty the Human Emperor had originally intended to test me for a few thousand years, but who would have thought that the Western Sect would place the knife at my neck, attacking my sect, killing my teachers, destroying my lineage!

So much so, that I perceived through the Great Vow Method and made the vow that turned me into this quasi-Heavenly Emperor.

I have personal grievances with the Western Sect, but the Western Sect’s Liù Chì Tiānchán, the Daluo Golden Immortal behind the Wanmo Heaven, previously known as the Qia Feng Daoist, has already been slain by me in the Misty Realm, so this cause and effect have mostly been settled.

Therefore, my condemnation of the Western Sect today does indeed contain personal resentment, but it’s not solely for venting my personal grievances.

”

“My fellow compatriots!

“Heavenly Dao is now flourishing, and the Human Race is its foundation.

The Human Race’s Heavenly Court is emerging accordingly, and you all are the very pillars of this future Heavenly Court!”

His voice gradually quickened, yet every word was crystal clear:

“Thwarting the Western Sect’s schemes, helping the Human Race through its plight, is but the initial mission of the Human Race’s Heavenly Court!

“We must not fear the current colossal threat of the Western Sect, nor can we be arrogant or complacent, nor should we think that because the Heavenly Dao is on the side of the Heavenly Court, we are invincible.

“We must always remember, the Heavenly Dao stands forever with those who have the majority of living beings!

Now, in confronting us, the Western Sect actually holds a significant advantage!

“The current issue for the Human Race’s Heavenly Court is how to establish itself, and then, how to survive!

“But so long as this Heavenly Court survives and gradually grows stronger, becoming a refuge for more and more creatures, then it must fulfill the mission of the Human Race’s Heavenly Court!

“To uphold justice, to administer fairness!

“To protect the weak, to restrain the strong!

“To establish laws in Desolate Era, to usher an upright spirit for all creatures!

“When our Heavenly Court hovers in the firmament of this primeval world!

Spanning sun, moon, and stars, ruling over mountains, rivers, and seas!

Shielding all beings, suppressing the mighty!

Then, we will carry out even greater endeavors!

We will embark on even greater journeys!

“To liberate the Hundred Clans from the oppression of ancient great demons!

“To free the enthralled creatures of Three Thousand Worlds from the suppression of the Great Sects!

“The Heavenly Court shall stand tall!

“You all are stars!”

All the immortals bowed in unison.

Nearly a thousand young Qi Cultivators were stirred with emotion within, while outside, millions of Qi Cultivators chanted for the Heavenly Emperor.

Li Ping’an glanced at the speech draft, which was all but useless after the first sentence, and stood firm on the high platform for a long while.

As the noise from every corner abated, he began to announce the most critical part.

Effective today, a secret realm will be opened beside the Holy Mother Palace, establishing the [Heavenly Emperor Academy].

The initial enrollees from the Holy Mother Palace assembly, these Yuan Immortal Realm and Heaven and Earth Bridge Realm young Qi Cultivators, will automatically enter the [Heavenly Emperor Academy] to practice, learn, improve themselves in all aspects, unlock their potential, and choose their future paths.

By the way, the honorary principal of [Heavenly Emperor Academy] is Human Emperor Shennong, Human Emperor Xuanyuan, with the head of academic affairs being Casting Cloud Sect’s Sect Hierarch Li Dazhi.

These nearly a thousand young Qi Cultivators are the future hope of the Heavenly Court.

The subsequent enrollees in the second and third phases, those above the True Immortal Realm, some will enter the Heavenly Emperor Academy, while others will follow the Heavenly Emperor to the Misty Realm.

This is Li Dazhi’s meticulously conceived…

Desolate Era Military Academy.

…

Watching Li Ping’an stand on the high platform and call out passionately, the Human Race’s group of immortals raised a towering chorus, and Li Dazhi’s eyes were full of emotion; he even couldn’t help but turn his head to wipe the corner of his eye.

Old Tianli chuckled, “Dazhi, Ping’an really is the best candidate for the Heavenly Emperor.”

Li Dazhi said wistfully, “This boy, he’s like me.”

Old Tianli’s mouth twitched a few times, but he didn’t know how to retort.

He just felt, this guy was rather too insufferable.

At the same time.

In an inconspicuous corner of the hidden arms realm beneath the Eastern Alliance’s main stronghold.

A few figures silently materialized, hunkering down beside an old well like several fallen leaves, going unnoticed by anyone.

The admonishing voice of Calamity Sovereign still echoed in the ears of the Liù Chì Tiānchán.

“Remember, this surprise attack isn’t for Magical Combat.

“If things can be stolen, don’t try to seize them by force.

“Act simultaneously at five locations, then retreat using the routes I have set for you.

If necessary, sacrifice a few decoys to quickly transport the items out of the primeval world.

“The moment to strike is right after the start of the banquet during the interval of the Holy Mother Palace assembly, you’ll only have a brief window.

“If you don’t succeed, it’s not a big deal.

If the attack fails, fleeing for your life is what matters most.

I have other plans that can be put to use.”
