824: Chapter 288: Plotting Against the Hundred Clans, Xuanyuan Continues the Ancient Battle!

“Cough!

Cough, cough!”

Li Ping’an’s Primordial Spirit coughed a few times as he slowly climbed up from the Spirit Platform, pushing his head with his hand.

What a situation, even speaking with the Sect Hierarch exerted such tremendous pressure.

According to the legends he knew, the six Great Sect Leaders were Saint of the Heavenly Dao, and here he was in the Heavenly Immortal Realm of the Dao Realm, hardly qualified to communicate normally with the other party?

And that was still from a distance of a hundred miles…

It was indeed reasonable for everyone to dread the six Great Sect Leaders.

“How long have I been unconscious?

Six days?”

Li Ping’an slightly frowned; at this moment his Dao Body felt incredibly fatigued, as if his body was cracking all over, so he released his Immortal Consciousness, allowing it to extend like flowing water.

The first thing he saw was the white-robed celestial maiden meditating on a chair at the foot of the bed, his master Qing Su.

Her appearance was delicate and lovely, her figure slender and graceful, as if nourished by the pure air from above the nine heavens, her skin like creamy jade glowing faintly, as though Nüwa, in creating humanity, had given her ancestors a special favor, thus adding such beauty to the world.

“After reaching the Golden Immortal Realm, the master indeed seems to have become even more ethereal.”

As the Immortal Consciousness flowed outward, Li Ping’an saw Zi Yao Xianzi quietly reading by the windowsill and Mother Gui Ling Guilingling, who was in the warm pavilion outside, teasing two small fish with two foxtail grasses.

With his Immortal Consciousness he saw the Isles of the Immortals of the Holy Mother Palace, and the stars that adorned the sky like glass ornaments.

The Holy Mother Palace had regained its tranquility; the second and third phases of the great assembly of the Holy Mother Palace had concluded.

This made Li Ping’an feel slightly regretful.

He had wanted to take a good look at the ‘Human Race talents’ at or above the Heavenly Immortal Realm during the third phase; these were the experts he would need to familiarize himself with next.

However, when he spotted his father’s figure, he immediately pushed this regret to the back of his mind.

His father was with the chief maid of the Holy Mother Palace and several high officials from the Eastern Alliance, located in a corner of the secret realm of the Holy Mother Palace, planning the approximate location of the Heavenly Emperor Academy, with thousands of celestial troops carrying various treasured materials on the side, waiting for the command to rush and construct the new palaces and pavilions.

This Heavenly Emperor Academy was using the land of the Holy Mother Palace and borrowing the officials of the Human Emperor as teaching staff to train the future talents of the Heavenly Court.

“Brilliant!”

Li Ping’an was clear about his own position.

At this stage, if the Heavenly Court were seen as a startup group, then he was the chairman of the board, Xuanyuan Huangdi was the major shareholder, Nüwa Niangniang was the second largest shareholder, and his father was akin to the general manager.

“Why don’t I see my wife?”

Li Ping’an wondered inwardly.

Logically, given that he was injured and unconscious, his junior sister should have been the one caring for him.

But Ningning was nowhere to be seen.

This made Li Ping’an slightly worried.

After carefully searching with his Immortal Consciousness, Li Ping’an quickly found Ningning Mu—she was indeed nearby, leading a few maids from Nüwa Palace, in a nearby side palace concocting medicinal soup and dishes for nourishment.

Ningning’s face was flushed red with a few beads of sweat, which made Li Ping’an feel a bit heartache.

As the Immortal Consciousness continued to spread, Li Ping’an saw the True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals recently selected by the Heavenly Court;

He carefully counted them, and there were five to six hundred in number, many of whom appeared old and frail, probably elders from various sects.

Even, Li Ping’an saw that elder from the sect ‘What is Happy Cultivation’—ahem, the one that had been renamed ‘Guanghai Leisure Sect.’

Being able to pass the assessment set by his father, their character was certainly not to be worried about.

And this batch of Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals were effectively the main strength relied upon during the founding stage of the Heavenly Court.

These hundreds of immortals were meditating in a large hall.

Next door was the grand hall where Mother Nüwa often stayed, with a dozen Golden Immortals standing in a row, listening to the admonitions of Mother Nüwa and Xuanyuan Huangdi.

“Why has His Majesty come over again?

Shouldn’t he be finding Chiyou’s demonic body or preparing to use troops against the Western Continent?”

While Li Ping’an was pondering, he suddenly heard Xuanyuan Huangdi laugh:

“Our Heavenly Emperor must be awake by now.

You all go and cultivate for now, and later, when the Heavenly Emperor Academy is built, you will also enter to study.

“Mother, I have something to discuss with the Heavenly Emperor, I’ll go to him first.”

“Go.”

Nüwa Niangniang waved her hand: “These past few days have been noisy, I am also somewhat tired.

If there are military actions later, Your Majesty, please prioritize the well-being of the common people and avoid unnecessary bloodshed.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi stood up and saluted: “Your child will keep that in mind.”

Nüwa Niangniang was slightly taken aback.

She looked at Xuanyuan Huangdi’s youthful face but did not say much else, casually scattering a cloud of mist and quickly disappearing without a trace.

In her presence, it had been a long time since Xuanyuan Huangdi had referred to himself as ‘your child.’

In the deep palace of the Holy Mother Palace, Nüwa Niangniang sighed softly, leaning back into the soft couch, lost in her ancient and extended memories.

…

When Xuanyuan Huangdi found Li Ping’an, he was still paralyzed in bed, unable to move.

However, Li Ping’an was now able to open his eyes, smile, and speak with a hoarse voice.

“Your Majesty…”

“You stay lying down!”

Xuanyuan Huangdi pressed down on Li Ping’an’s form, frowning and said: “Wasn’t it a minor injury?

How did it get so severe?

Was Zhunti really so shameless as to launch a sneak attack on you, a mere Heavenly Immortal?”

“The Great Dao was shaken,” Li Ping’an sighed, “It’s still because I am not strong enough.”

“You have only been practicing for a few days, a few months, while Zhunti has been roaming the world since the creation of heaven and earth.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi patted Li Ping’an on the shoulder, laughing:

“Thank you for this time, using the Taoist Sect’s experts to eliminate three major threats of the Human Race, it’s truly commendable.”
