Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader immediately became excited and hurriedly asked, "Really?!"

After searching for so long, we finally have some leads!

Yunxiao nodded slowly, "Such an important matter cannot be taken lightly. After investigation, the leader of the branch sect is very likely to be Lu Chuan."

Lu Chuan!?

The Master of the Heavenly Sect was slightly taken aback. He seemed to have some impression of Lu Chuan, but not much.

In his memory, Lu Chuan was not very talented; this was the only impression Tongtian Jiaozhu had of him.

"Where is the branch temple that Lu Chuan built?" Tongtian Sect Leader hurriedly asked Yunxiao.

Yunxiao replied, "It's an unknown blessed land within the Eastern Continent of Divine Victory."

"Have you gone to investigate?" the Tongtian Sect Leader asked hurriedly.

Yunxiao nodded slightly, "They've gone, but the place is deserted. However, the various traces and auras remaining in the dojo suggest that the branch leader is most likely Lu Chuan!"

Upon hearing this,

The joy of the Tongtian Sect Leader instantly subsided, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Search carefully around the original dojo, and be quick! Report back immediately if you find anything."

"Yes, Master!" Yunxiao replied.

After Yunxiao left, the Tongtian Sect Leader carefully recalled Lu Chuan, but the impression he retained was indeed limited.

Unable to recall anything, the Tongtian Sect Leader sighed softly, "Never mind! Everything will become clear once I see it."

...

at the same time,

Chaoge,

Imperial Palace

Di Xin paced back and forth in front of the palace gate with some worry. The queen had given birth, so naturally he was anxious and nervous.

Emperor Xin still married the daughter of Jiang Huanchu, the Marquis of Dongbo, as his queen, who was originally the established Queen Jiang.

"Your Majesty, do not worry, the Queen will surely be alright, and both mother and child will be safe!" Wen Zhong said from the side.

The other senior ministers echoed these sentiments, offering words of comfort to the king.

Di Xin nodded slightly, saying nothing, but his worry and tension remained undiminished.

Only when a cry rang out did the senior officials breathe a sigh of relief.

It's born! It's born!

At this moment, Di Xin did not relax in the slightest. The next second, a maid ran out to report, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! The Empress has given birth to a little prince!"

"How is the Queen?!" Di Xin asked hastily, showing no joy.

The maidservant hurriedly replied, "The Queen is safe!"

Upon hearing this, Di Xin finally smiled. "Good! Good! Issue the order: let the whole country celebrate!"

"yes!"

Several senior officials also said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

In a short time,

The entire imperial palace and the entire city of Chaoge were quickly filled with joy, and this celebration spread throughout the entire Shang Dynasty.

...

at this time,

Taoyuan Cave on Jiuxian Mountain

When Guang Chengzi awoke from his seclusion, he sensed that Yin Jiao had already been born.

Calculating the timeline, it was far too late, but Guang Chengzi wasn't surprised. After all, before his seclusion, more than a thousand years before the Investiture of the Gods began, some changes occurred in the prehistoric world, affecting the entire Investiture of the Gods procession.

However, the master once said that minor trends can be changed, but major trends cannot be defied, and the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods will still come.

It's a bit late, but it's good that you're here!

immediately,

Guang Chengzi's figure flashed and disappeared into the cave. In a short while, he arrived in Chaoge.

Looking at the current prosperity of Chaoge City, Guang Chengzi was completely dumbfounded.

What's going on?!

Is this really Chaoge?!

The nation is prosperous; has the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods ended?!

this……!

Something's not right! This is very wrong!

Never mind, let's go to the Imperial Palace first and see what's going on.

soon,

Inside the imperial palace,

The eunuch reported,

"Your Majesty, a Taoist priest is requesting an audience outside the palace. He claims to be a disciple of a sage named Guang Chengzi and says he wants to bestow upon the Crown Prince a destiny of immortality."

Di Xin's eyes flashed slightly. Guang Chengzi! ? A stroke of good fortune! ? Hmph!

According to Master, in the originally established course of events, this guy was Jiao'er's master.

It's truly surprising that someone so stubborn as to dare to come to the gate of the Primordial Celestial Venerable!

at this time,

Several important officials present, including Wen Zhong, were also surprised. This guy is really brave!

Yuanshi Tianzun has already died once, yet he still dares to let his disciples act so recklessly. He truly deserves to be called a saint!

"Announce!"

At Emperor Xin's command, the eunuchs went to summon Guang Chengzi to the palace.

When Guang Chengzi stepped into the palace, he noticed that the ministers were looking at him with a slightly strange expression.

but,

Guang Chengzi didn't seem to care, his celestial aura unmistakable. But when he looked at Di Xin, his expression faltered slightly, a sense of unease creeping over him.

Such overwhelming imperial might! It was merely a mortal emperor, yet it instilled fear in him.

Judging from Emperor Xin's auspicious appearance, there was no sign of the Shang Dynasty's impending demise.

What exactly happened?

"To disobey the king is outrageous!" Wen Zhong's voice rang out.

Guang Chengzi snapped out of his daze, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty! Please forgive my rudeness!"

Di Xin's indifferent voice rang out, "It's alright. You said there was a predestined opportunity with immortality, and I'd like to know what kind of opportunity it is?"

Guang Chengzi replied, "He can summon wind and rain, move mountains and fill seas, live as long as the heavens, and be ranked among the righteous gods!"

"I am a disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, and I have a karmic connection with Prince Yin Jiao. I wish to take the prince as my disciple, and I will impart all my knowledge to him!"

After saying that,

Wen Zhong and the others were stunned. ⊙?⊙!

You really dare to get your teeth opened!

Di Xin's lips curled into a cold smile. "Come, kneel down. I have a favor to ask of you!"

Guang Chengzi: ? ? ?

Am I hallucinating?!

He asked me for a favor, and he wants me to kneel down?!

What kind of logic is this? This... doesn't make sense!?

"Um?!"

Di Xin's face darkened. "Kneel down!"

instantly,

A terrifying imperial aura was released, and Guang Chengzi's expression changed. He felt as if the words "kneel down" were exploding in his ears like the sound of a divine bell. With the imperial aura enveloping him, Guang Chengzi involuntarily knelt down.

Di Xin's icy voice rang out, "I want to beg you, please don't mislead the younger generation in the future. You think you can be Jiao'er's teacher?! You're not worthy!?"

"snort!"

"You bastard, watch your step in your next life!"

"Guards! Drag this thing away and tear it apart by five horses!"

As soon as the sound faded,

Guang Chengzi realized what was happening and immediately stood up. "I gave the prince a chance at immortality, and you want to kill me? You are truly a tyrant! Today I will show you what supernatural powers are!"

As soon as the voice fell,

Wen Zhong and several other high-ranking officials shouted, "Insolence!"

at the same time,

Huang Feihu made his move, throwing a punch that sent Guang Chengzi flying outside the hall. Simultaneously, Huang Feihu flashed forward and attacked Guang Chengzi again.

However, Guang Chengzi caught the attack steadily, but he was also somewhat surprised.

Huang Feihu's cultivation level was actually at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, which was completely different from the established trend!

and,

He could now sense Wen Zhong's aura, which was even stronger than his own.

This is... complete chaos! Absolutely complete chaos!

"Di Xin, you tyrant! Didn't you say I'm misleading the youth? Why don't you come and test my divine powers yourself!" Guang Chengzi shouted coldly.

Di Xin was slightly surprised, "You...are you sure you want me to do it!?"
