The Human Emperor has already returned to Xuanyuan Palace and is now summoning the gods of the Human Race!”

“Report!

The esteemed sages of the Hall of Esteemed Sages have come out of seclusion!”

“Your Majesty!

The Holy Mother has decreed that you should not leave the Holy Mother Palace!”

Li Ping’an sat in a side hall, his tea never quite reaching his mouth, each time interrupted by the hurried messengers and maids of the Holy Mother.

Li Ping’an gestured that he understood, finally bringing the teacup in front of him, not yet managing to take a sip…

“Ping’an!

A major incident has occurred!”

Li Dazhi, holding up the hem of his Daoist robe, flew into the great hall, grabbed the teacup from Li Ping’an’s hand, gulped down two mouthfuls, and plopped down on the wooden chair beside Li Ping’an, saying urgently:

“Chiyou’s Demonic Body has been stolen!

Xuanyuan is furious!

He has just ordered the execution of those vicious demons!

“More than ten masters have come out from the Human Race!

“They are all ministers of Xuanyuan Huangdi, and have killed more than twenty vicious demons!

But they have all pursued in the wrong direction!”

“I already knew about this, Dad.

“I even used the power of the Heavenly Dao to search, but there’s no way to confirm where Chiyou’s Demonic Body is.”

Li Ping’an pursed his lips and sighed, reaching over to the table for a teacup and took a big gulp.

His eyes filled with a hint of satisfaction, he continued calmly:

“Just now, Brother Xuanyuan came to see me, and when he left, he was cursing and his eyes looked as if they were ablaze with two flames, obviously he was truly enraged.

“He also wanted me to come up with a way to force the Western Sect to hand over Chiyou’s Demonic Body.”

“Ah?”

Li Dazhi exclaimed:

“What could you possibly do?

“Besides, you have not yet formally ascended as the Heavenly Emperor, you barely have four or five personal soldiers, and you haven’t even fully integrated the Misty Realm.

How can you directly press the Western Sect?

“With an invincible attitude comes vulnerability; in waters too clear there are no fish.

The Western Sect has always been an invincible force in this regard!”

Li Ping’an asked, “Are my uncles and grand-uncles still with the Holy Mother?”

“They are,” replied Li Dazhi, “a few of them had gone to assist Xuanyuan, and just returned.

They’re over there now, drinking tea and chatting quite leisurely.”

“The Chanjie Dual Sects shouldn’t get involved in this matter, unless Brother Xuanyuan personally asks for help, which would owe the Human Race a great karmic debt.”

Li Ping’an put down his empty teacup and began to ponder, murmuring:

“The Western Sect really can’t catch a break.

“First they stirred up the Witch Clan, and now they have started targeting Chiyou’s Demonic Body.

I suspect that the body of the Ancestral Witch Xuan Ming hasn’t been completely destroyed and may be used to resurrect Chiyou.

“Why didn’t the Human Race simply destroy Chiyou’s Demonic Body back then?”

“It couldn’t be destroyed,” said Li Dazhi, “I’ve talked about it a few times with Wen Rou, and after looking it up in the records, she said that Chiyou’s Demonic Body was tainted by the Dao principles of the Sea of Blood, and couldn’t be destroyed by any means, for the Sea of Blood would continually revive Chiyou’s Demonic Body.”

“The Sea of Blood, the ancestor Minghe, the Twelve-Petaled Red Lotus…”

Li Ping’an muttered a few times and then fell into deep thought.

A fairy brought tea, and Li Dazhi thanked her, taking out a Precious Mirror and began observing the situation outside the Holy Mother Palace.

The news that Chiyou’s Demonic Body was stolen and the Human Emperor’s ensuing rage had spread among the Qi Cultivators.

Countless Messaging Jade Talismans turned into streaks of light, shooting towards the North.

In no more than two days, such news would spread throughout the entire Qi Cultivation world of the East Continent.

Chiyou was the mortal enemy of the Human Race.

At this moment, there was a looming sense of a storm brewing.

Li Dazhi asked, “Have you thought of a solution?”

Father and son consciously began to communicate in their hometown’s dialect.

“Not yet.

Dad, do you have any ideas?”

“Why not just go for broke?”

Li Dazhi leaned to one side, a hint of ruthlessness crossing his eyes:

“Ask the Human Emperor to directly lead all the masters of the Human Race to Mount Ling, you come forward to request assistance from Yuanshi Tianzun, with the Holy Mother and all the distinguished masters following.

“Once at Mount Ling, say the thief who stole Chiyou’s Demonic Body has entered Ling Mountain and request to conduct a search!”

“That won’t work.”

Li Ping’an said:

“Firstly, my teacher might find it inconvenient to intervene.

“Secondly, it’s highly likely that the Western Sect hasn’t brought the Demonic Body back to Ling Mountain, and it’s probably in some minor world now.

“If the Western Sect allows us to search, and we find nothing, we’ll be in a very passive position.

“Chiyou’s Demonic Body is too unique to fake.”

Li Dazhi slapped his forehead and continued, “Anyway, you declared war in your sermon before, so now we might as well just attack Ling Mountain!”

“The power of the two Sect Hierarchs cannot be underestimated.”

Li Ping’an said seriously:

“The key issue is the attitude of my teacher, as Chan Teaching still needs to use the Western Sect to balance the pressure from the Jie Sect.

“Moreover, we have to consider, if we push the Western Sect too hard, they might directly summon their accumulated Dao Soldiers and fiends from the past thousands of years to attack the East Continent, which would be a major problem.

“Neither side is prepared for a major decisive battle right now.”

Li Dazhi stood up and began pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back.

Several figures arrived on clouds and landed outside the hall one after another.

The first to enter was Qing Su, followed by a beautiful young girl, naturally it was Zi Yao Xianzi who had just reported to Qing Su and claimed ‘Heavenly Emperor has asked me to follow you’.

Qing Su’s serene and beautiful face was full of seriousness as she sternly said, “Disciple, is Chiyou truly going to resurrect?”

“It’s very likely,” Li Ping’an said, “Don’t worry, Master.”

Qing Su said softly, “I just fear there will be another disaster and the Human Race will suffer another major setback.”

Zi Yao Xianzi reassured everyone: “Chiyou has been suppressed for nearly eighty thousand years; even if he could resurrect, he would be greatly weakened and not a cause for concern.”

“The Dao Body of the Ancestral Witch Xuan Ming might still possess the residual power of the Ancestral Witch!”

Li Dazhi sighed:

“The Western Sect’s actions this time are meticulous and flawless; they undoubtedly have grand ambitions, let’s hope they don’t actually resurrect Chiyou at the height of his power!”
