"Zong Ling Qifei Tiangong, dare to sit in Lian Wanlu Tiangong?"
Thoughts raced through the mind of the Marquis of Zhennan as he tried to recall the many ancient books related to the underworld, trying to find the origins of the names of these two gods.
But even if he racked his brains, he could not recall any relevant information.
The gods in the underworld are strictly guarded. Even if it is a lower-ranking god, as long as one enters the rank of the underworld gods, he can be compared to the gods of Hebo and other mountains in the outside world.
What's more, when the two envoys, White Tiger and Vermillion Bird, appeared before their eyes, the ghost generals who had transformed into gods knelt on the ground in worship. The god position shown was definitely not an unknown small god position. The information behind this was enough to move the Prince of Zhennan.
You must know that the two envoys are both people from the Yang world and have close relations with the entire Daxia court. If you can use the identities of the two envoys to establish close ties with the underworld, it will be of great benefit to the entire Daxia.
The only thing that puzzled the Marquis of Zhennan was that Baihu and Zhuque, the two envoys of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, were top-notch in cultivation in Daxia and were the top geniuses of the younger generation, but they seemed not good enough in this eternal underworld.
Any one of the ghost generals at the peak of the incarnation level standing on both sides of the city gate could easily suppress the two envoys of the Imperial Observatory.
Under such circumstances, how did the two envoys, White Tiger and Vermillion Bird, take the throne of the underworld? What happened in the previous turmoil in the underworld?
All kinds of complicated thoughts flashed through the mind of Marquis Zhennan, and his thoughts were temporarily suppressed. Marquis Zhennan walked out of the carriage and greeted the two envoys with a smile on his face.
"There has been no news since the two envoys entered Fengdu City, which makes me very worried.
The two envoys must have been credited with the great contribution in quelling the turmoil in the underworld. Your Majesty has issued an edict and is preparing to announce to the court that the two envoys will be rewarded and given titles."
The White Tiger Envoy is in charge of the Luofeng Six Heavenly God's throne. He has taken off his spiritual armor and is now wearing white gorgeous clothes with a majestic figure. His every move can attract the extraordinary power of the underworld's incense gods.
He nodded slightly to the smiling Zhennan Marquis and said in a rather reserved tone:
"You are too kind, Lord Zhennan. Zhuque and I only contributed a little to the matter of the underworld this time. We dare not take credit for it."
He was once a genius who was specially trained by the Great Xia court. Although his strength and status were both top-notch, he was still inferior to powerful princes like the Marquis of Zhennan.
But after witnessing the real battle between gods and coming into contact with the top strong men in the Xuanhuang Realm, the White Tiger Constellation's horizons have been greatly broadened.
In addition, the God of the Six Heavens of Luofeng was personally appointed by the Emperor of Fengdu and is one of the six ghosts and gods in charge of the underworld. Although he and the Suzaku Seat Envoy are at the last position, they can still be considered to have a respected status.
Such a status was even several points higher than that of the prince Zhennan Hou, so naturally he no longer had the previous awe in his heart.
Even towards the so-called imperial decree from Emperor Xia, the White Tiger Envoy felt somewhat disapproving.
Although Emperor Xia was the Human Emperor in name, the position of the Human Emperor had been vacant since he severed the connection between heaven and earth ten thousand years ago, and successive dynasties over the past ten thousand years had been unable to restore the Human Emperor's power at his peak.
In this case, how can the title bestowed by Emperor Xia compare to the title of the Six Gods of Luofeng bestowed by Emperor Fengdu?
The Marquis of Zhennan keenly noticed the change in the White Tiger Envoy's attitude. His expression changed slightly, but he still smiled and said:
"White Tiger humbles himself."
At the side, Suzaku was wearing a slim-fitting dark red dress with a graceful figure. His brows were slightly furrowed on his delicate face, and he glanced at the White Tiger Envoy with some dissatisfaction.
She knew very well that White Tiger's mentality had changed at the moment, but it was difficult for her to interfere because of her different identities.
He took a step forward, stood in front of the White Tiger Envoy, bowed to the Zhennan Marquis, and said in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant:
"Bai Hu and I represent the underworld, so we cannot meet you as envoys. I hope the Marquis of Zhennan will understand."
When Marquis Zhennan heard the words of the Suzaku Envoy, he felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't care about the change in the White Tiger's attitude. As an old-fashioned prince, he still had some magnanimity.
What really worried him was the attitude of the two emissaries towards Daxia after they obtained the throne of the underworld.
When Daxia was in decline a hundred years ago, many people crossed the oceans and went to overseas countries to try to settle down.
Once these people go overseas, in order to show that they have completely severed ties with Daxia, they will spare no effort to discredit and attack Daxia, and even develop strong hostility towards Daxia.
Although the two envoys are definitely not ordinary people and should not be judged with such petty minds, the future of the entire Daxia is involved and the Marquis of Zhennan must be cautious.
Fortunately, the response from the Suzaku Envoy made Marquis Zhennan secretly relieved.
Baihu did not realize the change, but was somewhat dissatisfied with Zhuque for interrupting him.
The atmosphere quietly eased, and Zhennan Hou said:
"Our Great Xia is also quite concerned about the matter of the underworld this time. I hope the Suzaku Envoy can give me some advice."
"It's not really a question of guidance." The Suzaku Envoy shook his head slightly and said:
“This matter is not a secret. In order to seek further advancement, the six Yin Marshals, led by the Sun Wandering God, tried to lead the Ten Kings of Hell to invade the Xuanhuang Realm.
The Ox-Headed Yin Shuai noticed what had happened and drove the imperial chariot to bring the King of Fengdu back to Fengdu City.
The emperor slaughtered the Yin Shuai, killed Yama Luo, and finally put down the rebellion in the underworld. "
"During this period, the Great Emperor appointed the six gods of Luofeng to take charge of the underworld in order to maintain order in the underworld. Baihu and I were both fortunately spotted by the Great Emperor of Fengdu during this process and became one of the six gods of Luofeng."
Marquis Zhennan showed a look of horror and his pupils suddenly contracted.
He had already guessed that the two messengers, White Tiger and Vermillion Bird, held extraordinary divine positions, but he had never realized that they had reached such a level.
The six gods of Luofeng are in charge of the underworld, which is almost equivalent to the ten great underworld generals of the underworld in the past.
Even because there are only six ghosts and gods in the Six Heavens of Luofeng, their number is smaller than that of the Yin Shuai, and the power they hold must be greater than that of the Ten Yin Shuai.
Moreover, this is not the underworld that was once completely controlled by the Humane Dynasty and could only maintain the order of yin and yang and the reincarnation of living beings, but a real behemoth that holds great power and is enough to make Daxia and the blessed land of caves and paradise fear it.
For Baihu and Zhuque to become the six gods of Luofeng is a complete leap forward. As long as they digest the status of gods and wait for the recovery of heaven and earth, they will be able to easily enter the fairyland and live forever in the future.
It can be said that after taking charge of the six gods of Luofeng, Baihu and Zhuque have entered another level. In the court of Great Xia, only Emperor Xia can suppress them.
However, while marveling at the change in the identities of the two envoys, Marquis Zhennan keenly noticed another thing, that is, the Emperor Fengdu mentioned by Zhuque.
“The shadowy figure of the emperor that appeared in the sky above Taizhou should be the Emperor of Fengdu who quelled the rebellion in the underworld.
Being able to use the title of Great Emperor, could he be the incarnation of some emperor? Or even a true Shinto emperor?"
This thought frightened Zhennan Hou again.
Forcibly suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Zhennan Hou couldn't help but speak:
"I wonder where the Emperor of Fengdu is now?
I am here on behalf of the Great Xia court, so I should pay my respects to the emperor."
The Emperor of Fengdu has already left Fengdu City. This is something known to all the ghosts and gods in the underworld. Baihu, who was standing aside, was about to speak when he was glared at by Suzaku. He immediately realized that the information about the Emperor was not something they could spread at will.
"The Great Emperor is unpredictable. How can we possibly know him?" Zhuque rejected the Marquis of Zhennan's inquiry without leaving a trace.
Marquis Zhennan was somewhat disappointed, but he did not dwell on the matter.
Being able to know the honorable name of the Great Emperor of Fengdu is already a great gain. When we ask the Imperial Observatory to go to the Langhuan Blessed Land later, we may be able to find some clues.
Reaching out and patting his head, the Marquis of Zhennan pretended to be annoyed and said:
"Look at my memory. I was so busy reminiscing about the past that I forgot to talk about the business."
"This time, I came to Fengdu City to discuss the establishment of diplomatic relations between the underworld and Daxia. In addition, the rules of the Xuanhuang Realm have revived to the point where they can accommodate powerful people in the God Transformation Realm, and the world is no longer stable.
With the revival of rich spiritual energy, demons and monsters are rampant. Even if there had not been the chaos in the underworld that affected several states this time, the number of ghosts and monsters would have gradually increased.
The imperial court wanted to unite with the underworld to rebuild the City God Temple on the territory of Daxia, in order to suppress the evil spirits with incense and magic.
Once the incense and fire domain is built, its prosperous incense and fire can also feed back to the ghosts and gods in the underworld. I wonder what the ghosts and gods in the underworld think?"
Baihu and Zhuque looked at each other, and the information exchange was completed in an instant. Then Zhuque took the initiative to respond:
“The Great Emperor had issued a decree before, banishing the Yintian Palace from the underworld, while Baihu and I will be in charge of the affairs of the Humane Dynasty.
As for establishing diplomatic relations with the underworld, Baihu and I can take the lead."
“Rebuilding the City God Temple and establishing a legal domain for incense burning is related to the foundation of the underworld. The City God’s position and the lands of the various states all need to be divided in detail.
This matter requires us to discuss it in detail with the other six gods of Luofeng, and since it concerns the overall situation of the underworld, we cannot make concessions at will to harm the interests of the underworld. I hope that the Marquis of Zhennan will understand."
Zhuque's words were very magnanimous, and he directly laid out the interests involved.
At the same time, Zhuque was also very clear about where he could bring convenience to the Daxia court and where he could not make random promises that would infringe on privacy interests.
Her current identity is no longer the envoy of the Imperial Observatory, but the god of the six heavens of Luofeng in the underworld.
The fact that he can sit on this throne is because of the favor of the King of Fengdu. If he acts recklessly, he will be cast back into the dust sooner or later.
Zhuque's answer made the Marquis of Zhennan feel relieved.
As long as we establish contact with the underworld, this mission will be accomplished.
As for the subsequent establishment of the city god system and the division of the incense and worship areas, it should be handed over to Taichang, the head of the Nine Ministers, and it has little to do with him. He just mentioned it casually to see the attitude of Baihu and Suzaku.
After the initial communication, both parties achieved satisfactory results and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
The Marquis of Zhennan began to chat with Suzaku, surprisingly placing the focus on Suzaku, which made the White Tiger secretly feel unconvinced.
After chatting for a while, Zhennan Hou suddenly changed the subject and said with interest:
"Before entering Fengdu City, have you heard of the ancient forbidden land of Beimang Mountain?"
Zhuque frowned slightly and said softly:
"Is what the Marquis of Zhennan was talking about? The Supreme Daoist killed the Ghost King and ordered Luozhou to send ordinary people to excavate the ancient forbidden valley?"
The Marquis of Zhennan said with great emotion:
“You may not know that you have been in Fengdu City these days, but the Supreme Taoist actually used those ordinary people to thoroughly excavate the ancient forbidden land and buried the Lord of Beimang Mountain in it.
It is said that before the Lord of Beimang Mountain died, he attracted a ghost to attack him, but was easily killed by the Supreme Taoist.
“As expected of him, he is a peerless genius who has been famous in this world for thousands of years. I really don’t know how much strength he can exert under the restrictions of the rules of heaven and earth.
With such means, it is not an exaggeration to call him the best in the world."
Hearing this, the White Tiger Envoy said unconvincedly:
“No matter how extraordinary the Supreme Daoist is, he is nothing more than a mere earthly immortal, relying only on special means to travel in the world.
The great power of Fengdu Emperor is so great that he can even kill the Ten Kings of Hell under the suppression of the rules of heaven and earth, not to mention that the Supreme Taoist is just a mere earthly immortal. "
"White Tiger, be careful with your words!" Suzaku scolded in a low voice.
Baihu glared at Zhuque and retorted:
“The Great Emperor has descended upon the Xuanhuang Realm, and we should promote His supreme power.
Do you want to see a mere earthly immortal overpower the emperor?"
Marquis Zhennan, who was standing by, heard the argument between the two with a smile on his face, and there seemed to be a subtle light flashing in his eyes.
"Brother Shen, I have to rush to the factory, so I can only send you here."
"Thank you, Brother Li."
A large truck slowly stopped outside the Beimang Mountain. After Shen Yuan got off the truck, it drove off into the distance in a hurry.
Shen Yuan withdrew his gaze from the cart with emotion.
It took more than a day to travel back to Luozhou from Taizhou by car, which was much slower than Shen Yuan's escape speed.
But the journey was not without gains. As the truck moved forward, Shen Yuan used the mysterious energy to sense the earth, sorting out the veins that had been eroded by the underworld, and bringing life back to the land of Taizhou.
Without this step, it would take at least several years for Taizhou to recover to its original vitality.
During this process, Shen Yuan sorted out the earth veins and obtained a lot of blessed energy from the Xuanhuang Realm, which was of great benefit to ordinary cultivators and gods.
However, for Shen Yuan, the blessing energy from combing the veins of the earth was of no great use, so he gave it to Li Kuang who was driving a large truck along the way.
With this aura of blessings and blessings, it was difficult for ordinary demons to approach Li Kuang, which could be regarded as paying for Shen Yuan's trip.
After arriving at Beimang Mountain, Shen Yuan no longer had any reservations. The space under his feet transformed into a beam of light and flew straight to the top of Beimang Mountain.
The valley has been thoroughly excavated and the ancient forbidden land has become history, but the number of practitioners from all sides on the top of Beimang Mountain has not decreased at all, but has increased instead.
Many practitioners personally dug up the corpses in the ancient forbidden land, trying to find a glimmer of opportunity, and the stone tablet of the Ten Courts of Hell also became the focus of attention of all parties.
Shen Yuan did not go to the ruins of the ancient forbidden land, but instead came to an elegant little attic several miles away.
In front of the attic, Gong Buyu stood with sword in both hands as graceful as a fairy from the Moon Palace, quietly waiting for Shen Yuan's return.
Seeing Shen Yuan's light falling into the courtyard, Gong Buyu took the initiative to step forward and salute:
"Greetings, Master!"
After saying that, Gong Buyu picked up the Huiming Sword in her hand and handed it to Shen Yuan. There was no trace of reluctance or nostalgia in her beautiful eyes.
Reaching out to take the Huiming Sword, Shen Yuan looked at his eldest disciple in front of him and said softly with approval:
"You did a good job in the Beimang Mountain matter."
Gong Buyu shook his head slightly, and said seriously with a cold and pretty face:
"I was able to kill this powerful enemy entirely thanks to Master's backup plan. I won't take credit for it."
Shen Yuan laughed dumbly: "Even if the Wheel King falls to the realm of transformation, you can't deal with him. It is enough for you to do your part well."
After a slight pause, Shen Yuan looked at Gong Buyu with increasing satisfaction and said softly:
"Luoyun Sect has always rewarded those who have made contributions. Since Master has nothing, I will teach you a magical power."
"The supernatural power was obtained by Master unexpectedly, and its name is: Taking the Moon."
