Chapter 652 Choice
Lu Hongyi just watched Chen An and his men leave the palace.
She didn't go, and she really didn't plan to go.
Because she has more important things to do, which concerns the life and death of Fengshenmen, and even more so the life and death of Chen An.
Retracting her gaze, Lu Hongyi calmly asked, "How's Lu Zhitang?"
Huang Ji lowered his head and said, "Master, the Great Elder still hasn't repented!"
Lu Hongyi narrowed her eyes, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her slightly narrow eyes.
"Go to the prison!"
Prison of sin!
When Hu Tong saw the Queen coming again, he suddenly became excited.
He hurried over and said, "Your humble servant greets Her Majesty the Queen!"
"No need to be polite!"
"Madam, are you going to interrogate the prisoner?"
Lu Hongyi gave Hu Tong a strange look: "What's wrong?"
Hu Tong perked up: "Your Majesty, I used to help Your Majesty interrogate prisoners. I could get any prisoner to speak..."
Lu Hongyi understood that this prison official wanted to serve her and interrogate the prisoners!
However, Lu Zhitang was just an ordinary prisoner, and she didn't want to interrogate him, but to make Lu Zhitang wake up!
"No need, step back!"
Hu Tong, who was full of expectations, suddenly lost his spirit and had to bow and leave in disappointment.
When Lu Hongyi saw Lu Zhitang again.
I found Lu Zhitang sitting very calmly in the cell.
Seeing Lu Hongyi coming in, Lu Zhitang remained calm and said, "Hongyi, you are really wrong!"
Lu Hongyi looked at Lu Zhitang calmly: "What is the meaning of the Fengshen Sect's existence?"
"The Conferred Godship and the continuation of the sect!" Lu Zhitang said calmly.
Lu Hongyi shook her head, walked up to Lu Zhitang, and spoke in a firm voice.
"The Fengshen Sect has been lingering on until now, just to wait for someone, the successor to the Fengshen Jue!"
“Only when the successor of the God-conferring Art appears, will the existence and continuation of the God-conferring Sect truly have meaning!”
After finishing speaking, Lu Hongyi shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that as the purple-robed elder of my Fengshen Sect, you have forgotten the responsibility of the Fengshen Sect's existence!"
Lu Zhitang frowned. "But you have to know that no matter what, the Conferred God Sect will never be as powerful and prosperous as other sects, because the inheritance of the Conferred God Technique is uncontrollable and too elusive. Therefore, our top priority right now is not to assist the successor of the Conferred God Technique, but to gain the support of the Heavenly Dao Palace and learn a large number of immortal techniques so that the Conferred God Sect can at least stand at the top of Shenzhou. This is meaningful!"
"Really? The successor of the Conferred God Technique is not worthy of the support of the Heavenly Dao Palace?" Lu Hongyi became more and more indifferent.
Lu Zhitang said solemnly, "Although he has inherited the Secret of the Gods, the Heavenly Ranking shows that his talent is too poor. How could the Heavenly Dao Palace support someone with such low potential?"
"The destiny of the Divine Land has been unified. If it is given to someone with extremely strong talent and even greater potential, there is a chance that another Human Emperor will appear. Only someone with talent like you has hope!"
Lu Zhitang seemed to be heartbroken. "I made all my efforts, but they were all destroyed. Now there is still a chance. You can become emperor immediately. The deaths of my two senior brothers can be blamed on Chen An. As long as we give up Chen An and are free from the constraints of the Conferred God Technique, with someone like you who has the appearance of a human emperor leading us, the Conferred God Sect will surely become the foremost sect that will shine through the ages!"
After hearing this, Lu Hongyi's eyes grew even colder, and she asked, "Even if I eventually become the Human Emperor and the Conferred God Sect becomes the number one sect, what's the point if there's no one to inherit the Conferred God Technique?"
"Why is it meaningless? Even if a false god comes, you can still be deified. You are the Human Emperor, and the destiny of the world is unified. Who can be your opponent!" Lu Zhitang said with some excitement.
Lu Hongyi coldly asked back, "What are false gods? The most important thing is the existence behind these false gods. Fifty-five thousand years ago in Tianzheng, there was an unknown war, a brilliant cultivation momentum, the destiny of the Human Emperor was unified, countless peak-level heavenly beings were born, and there were also powerful sects like our Fengshen Sect, Tianmo Palace, Xuanmen, and countless powerful families and sects. What was the result?"
Lu Hongyi said this, looking at Lu Zhitang with cold eyes: "As a result, Shenzhou collapsed, the world was almost destroyed, and finally Shenzhou was divided into five parts. Do you know why?"
Lu Zhitang frowned and said nothing.
"You should know this history. After all, you were once the purple-robed Grand Elder of our Fengshen Sect. Back then, something happened to our Fengshen Sect's ancestor, the inheritor of the Fengshen Jue. Otherwise, how could such a strange battle have come to this!"
Having said that, a strong murderous aura flashed from Lu Hongyi's body, and she stared at Lu Zhitang coldly.
"And judging from some of the information left by the ancestor, I'm afraid it's closely related to the Tiandao Palace!"
"this……"
Lu Zhitang opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Hongyi just after he said a word.
"That battle nearly wiped out the Shenzhou cultivation world. The Tiandao Palace was so amazing and powerful, so why didn't they show up? Lu Zhitang, have you ever thought about this?"
Lu Zhitang looked solemn and said nothing, as if he had nothing to say.
Lu Hongyi took a deep breath and said, "Then let me ask you again, why did you go to Tiandao Palace?"
Lu Zhitang still didn't say anything, but sighed.
"I'll answer for you. The leader of the Fengshen Sect asked you to go to the Tiandao Palace, not to change your ways, but to investigate what happened to the Fengshen Sect's ancestor in the Tiandao Palace. And you didn't find out anything, but you became a disciple of the Tiandao Palace!"
Lu Zhitang suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Lu Hongyi: "Hongyi, who can find out the truth about what happened back then? All the people who were there are dead, and there is not even a single word left behind!"
"Isn't the Tiandao Palace still fully wiped out?" Lu Hongyi said indifferently.
Lu Zhitang gave Lu Hongyi a deep look and said, "If you had ever been to the Tiandao Palace, you would know that the Tiandao Palace is not something that we, the Fengshen Sect, can afford to provoke. They... have overturned our perceptions!"
"So, I really have no way to investigate. Only you and the Conferred God Sect, standing at the pinnacle of heaven and earth, are qualified to have a direct dialogue with the Heavenly Dao Palace. Otherwise... even if you find out something, what can you do?"
Lu Hongyi raised his chin and looked up at the prison.
After a long while, Lu Hongyi said dejectedly, "Any last words?"
Lu Zhitang's expression changed slightly: "If you really want to make this choice, Human Emperor, the opportunity for Fengshen Sect to become the number one sect is right in front of you!"
Lu Hongyi closed her eyes, as if she was talking to Lu Zhitang, but also seemed to be talking to herself!
"My Fengshen Sect, my husband, and I, Lu Hongyi, do not need the help of a sect with ulterior motives. My Fengshen Sect can still stand at the pinnacle of the world!"
