"I thought this Celestial Emperor was some kind of powerful figure, but it turns out he's just a hypocrite who can't properly raise his children."
The paper in Han Feng's hand caught fire and quickly burned to ashes.
He also disliked the prince, finding it strange that a monk would be so superstitious about such things.
Whether the alchemy was successful or not was believed to be related to the involvement of an immortal.
The immortals only possess endless lifespan; they have no other effect.
Li Changsheng's sacrifice of his own son was despicable, but compared to the Immortal Emperor, it was nothing.
The Immortal Emperor's ability to comprehend the Great Dao of Time owes much to Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng's wood carvings are so lifelike that they are almost indistinguishable from real people.
If a soul could be infused into them, these wood carvings could become real people.
The carpenter Han Feng encountered was Li Changsheng, who was very likely also cultivating the Great Dao of Time.
Li Changsheng has lived a very long life, and no one understands the great principle of time better than him.
Han Feng stopped thinking about the Immortal Emperor. Since the Immortal Emperor's realm hadn't broken through to the Heavenly One Realm, he was nothing to fear.
Needless to say, his son was under Han Feng's protection in Changsheng Town.
Anyone who wants to harm the people of Changsheng Town must first get past Han Feng.
Han Feng recalled the life described by Li Changsheng and was deeply moved.
Li Chang lived for so long that he had become indifferent to many things.
Faced with a life-or-death situation, Li Changsheng chose to sacrifice his son to survive.
Throughout his life, Li Changsheng always felt that he took life and death lightly.
But when faced with a true life-or-death situation, Li Changsheng decisively chose to live.
Han Feng thinks Li Changsheng is despicable, probably because he hasn't experienced the same life.
If he had experienced Li Changsheng's life, he wouldn't find it despicable.
Six paths of reincarnation appeared behind Han Feng, beginning to take place in Li Changsheng's life.
A light drizzle fell on my clothes.
Han Feng walked along the stone path, reflecting on Li Changsheng's life.
Three people were watching Han Feng from a distance, but dared not get too close.
They were afraid that getting too close would anger the elders of Changsheng Town.
“I’ve already given the letter, but I don’t know if this senior will leave or not,” Chen Huiming said.
“I don’t think he’ll leave. This senior just burned the letter, which makes his meaning quite clear,” Zhao Changjian said, shaking his head.
"We've already given the reminder. Whether this senior leaves or not is not something we can decide," Li Lihua sighed.
What are your plans?
Chen Huiming asked.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Chang decided, "I have decided to leave the Immortal Dynasty."
"ah?"
Li Lihua asked in surprise, "Senior Brother Changjian, why do you suddenly want to leave?"
"We are just guarding this place. If the Crown Prince makes a move against it, we will just watch and not leave. After all, we are acting on the orders of the Immortal Emperor. As long as we do not stop him, the Crown Prince will not make things too difficult for us."
Chen Huiming offered words of advice from the side.
"It's not entirely because I can't bear to see the people of Changsheng Town die; I'm disappointed with this Immortal Dynasty. Once upon a time, I thought the Immortal Dynasty was the most perfect rule."
“In the Immortal Dynasty, cultivators and mortals lived peacefully. The imperial examination system was replaced by cultivation. Originally, only sects and cultivation families had cultivation methods, but these methods became widespread in the Immortal Dynasty.”
"Back then, I was just a cowherd. I was able to cultivate to the Dao Heaven Realm entirely thanks to the Immortal Dynasty's system, for which I have always been very grateful."
"Now I see the dark side of the Immortal Dynasty, and I realize that the Immortal Dynasty is not perfect and has great flaws. The Longevity Clan is just a group of mortals with endless lifespans."
"They were displaced in the Immortal Dynasty just to survive. I think whoever arranged for these people to stay in Changsheng Town is very kind, even showing compassion to the people of the Changsheng Clan."
"It wasn't until one of them went into seclusion that I realized that perhaps one of them had been acting from the beginning, and that the truly benevolent one was the sea god, and that everything he did was to please the sea god."
Zhao Changjian shook his head.
Chen Huiming and Li Lihua fell silent, tacitly agreeing with Zhao Changjian's meaning.
Preventing the Crown Prince from taking action against the Longevity Clan is actually quite simple.
As long as the Celestial Emperor gives the Crown Prince a single instruction, the Crown Prince will not dare to take action.
But the Celestial Emperor did not do that; he simply handed over the power to the Crown Prince.
The crown prince had many bad habits, such as a fondness for killing.
Not long after the Immortal Emperor went into seclusion, the Crown Prince began killing people.
All the prisoners in the imperial prison were tortured to death by the Crown Prince.
Many of them committed minor offenses that did not warrant death.
The Celestial Emperor had many sons, but the Crown Prince was not the eldest son of the legitimate wife, yet he was still made Crown Prince.
The true eldest son was extremely kind; he wouldn't even kill an ant.
Many people hoped that the Immortal Emperor would make his eldest son the Crown Prince, but the Immortal Emperor overruled all objections and insisted on making his cruel son the Crown Prince.
Everyone has preferences, and people tend to associate their own things with those of others who share those preferences.
The Immortal Emperor's choice of the cruel prince over his eldest son clearly indicates his intentions.
Perhaps the Celestial Emperor has been suppressing his true nature and is not as benevolent as he appears.
The person who forced the Celestial Emperor to restrain himself was the Sea God deep in the ocean.
The Southern Ocean is home to various ethnic groups, who have long since united as one.
The one who unifies the seas is the Sea God, a compassionate sea creature.
After the sea god unified the sea, he saw constant wars on land.
So the sea god took pity on them and hoped that the land-dwelling humans and all the other races could be united, and he did not want there to be any more war.
With the help of the sea god, the land has been unified over the years.
Zhao Changjian felt that the land would soon descend into chaos again.
Because the sea god chose the wrong person, that person was the Celestial Emperor.
The Immortal Emperor was pretending from beginning to end, pretending to be a kind person.
If the Immortal Emperor realm were to break through to the Heavenly One realm, he might not act according to the Sea God's wishes.
The Celestial Emperor was inherently violent, which caused much suffering to the Celestial Dynasty.
“You’re right. The Crown Prince is indeed tyrannical enough. Who else could be even more tyrannical if they were hiding their true nature?” Chen Huiming sighed.
"After hearing what you said, I want to go to the sea, so I can avoid seeing it and being bothered by it," Li Lihua said.
"The Crown Prince will be arriving soon. You two should make your choice as soon as possible, or the Immortal Dynasty will not be at peace."
Zhao Chang clasped his hands in greeting.
"Senior Brother Changjian, are you leaving now?"
Li Lihua said with some surprise.
"There's no point in staying; it's better to leave sooner rather than later."
Zhao Chang said helplessly.
“You’re right. There’s nothing we can do here, so we might as well leave sooner.”
Li Lihua nodded.
“Master Huiming, Junior Sister Lihua and I have decided to go to the sea. There is a lot of land in the sea, and I feel that those places will be more comfortable than the Immortal Dynasty, and we will be more likely to survive.”
Zhao Changjian and the other two were not highly skilled, only at the Daotian Realm.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this level of cultivation is already very powerful.
However, in the eyes of the Crown Prince and other ministers, the three were no different from ants.
Chen Huiming fell silent, contemplating whether to stay or leave.
