Emperor Xin?
How did you know?
It seems some people have already lost their temper...
Two thoughts flashed through Lin Feng's mind, then he calmly nodded: "To be precise, it's not about helping. I just don't believe those who deliberately belittle Di Xin, especially those bystanders who want to skin Di Xin alive just because someone said a few words."
"So I'd like to meet this emperor, see the people around him, and find out what truly reflects the changes of this era."
"Is that so?" Chi You slowly picked up the celestial fruit on the table and savored its taste. "Don't you want the era you envision to arrive quickly?"
"In my eyes?" Lin Feng was taken aback.
Chi You couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Hahahaha, you don't think no one has come looking for me, do you? Quite a few of you have come to the Fire Cloud Cave with history books, directly laying out all the future changes in front of you!"
"You are one of the few who said you wanted to search, but... their search was to follow the changes in history, not to make useless interference, and to lead the people across those historical chasms and wounds. But you... seem to want to find new changes from them."
"Why don't you tell me, what do you see now?"
Chi You picked up the wine jug, poured himself a small cup of immortal wine, and then said, "The one who was eavesdropping behind me doesn't need to eavesdrop anymore. Let's come out and have a chat."
Clang... The wine cup was placed on the table, and the Jade Emperor, who had been hiding, walked out generously: "I also want to hear how you intend to see Di Xin."
How do we check it?
Lin Feng felt a complex mix of emotions. The relationship between the Jade Emperor, the Three Sovereigns, King Zhou, and Chi You was far more complex than the question before him.
The Jade Emperor can cooperate with the Three Sovereigns, but only on the Demon Sealing List, because the Demon Sealing List targets cultivators, which would benefit not only the Jade Emperor but also the human race.
However, the Jade Emperor will not cooperate with King Zhou. After the death of the current human emperor, he was enshrined on the Investiture of the Gods. This humanism, which has deviated from its original purpose, will surely decline.
The Three Sovereigns didn't care whether King Zhou lived or died; what they wanted was peace on earth, not the fighting and killing among these cultivators, nor the merits and fame they sang about.
The humanity they perceive is certainly not the same as the humanity that ordinary people see, which can contend for power with the Way of Heaven!
Therefore, the cooperation between the Three Sovereigns and the Jade Emperor can be more profound. The Three Sovereigns hope that the human race can see clearly, and the Jade Emperor hopes that humanity will not compete with the Heavenly Way.
Therefore, the drought demon and Chi You will appear here.
Therefore, the slightly different look at King Zhou that Lin Feng mentioned now would make them pay special attention.
Furthermore, it was precisely because Lin Feng spoke of his understanding of humanity and the Way of Heaven that they gathered here without prior agreement.
"The way of Heaven is constant; it does not exist for Yao, nor does it perish for Jie... All things in Heaven and Earth follow their own path. The prosperity of humanity does not depend on Heaven." Lin Feng murmured, "You understand the struggle between the Way of Heaven and the Way of Humanity better than I do. If Di Xin, caught in the middle, dies, does that mean that Wu Ming and Xian Qin will no longer have a clear objective, and can start an even bigger struggle to seize land, seize the human race, and seize the Lord of Humanity?"
From Wu Ming's perspective, King Zhou cannot die, and he cannot be listed on the Investiture of the Gods after his death.
From the Jade Emperor's perspective, King Zhou's death should not trigger a greater war.
From Chi You's perspective, with the world still unsettled, the Zhou Dynasty still unstable, and the people unable to escape the chaos of war, King Zhou could not die.
"Yes." Chi You nodded, and the Jade Emperor also bowed his head in acquiescence.
Seeing this, Lin Feng continued, "But what if King Zhou wins? He can control the heavens with a single word, decide everything, and all resources will favor the human race. What will happen in the end?"
"What will happen?" The Jade Emperor thought of an answer: "Yin and Yang will be reversed, the Heavenly Way will be disordered, and the Three Realms will be shattered."
"Yes and no." Lin Feng slammed his weight onto the table, pointing outside as he said, "Spiritual energy is scarce, all things are decaying, it's the end of the Dharma era!"
"Oh?" Chi You seemed to have noticed something.
Seeing the Jade Emperor frown, Lin Feng said again, "The decline of heaven and earth is also part of the cycle of reincarnation. Let's see if he can manage all of this. Besides, the Shang Dynasty is just a small part of the world."
"If cultivators help, how could the world fall into chaos?" The Jade Emperor did not think Lin Feng's idea was good.
“The cultivators help because the Heavenly Dao is maintaining balance behind the scenes. What would you do without it?” Lin Feng laughed. “Then I’ll let you go out and have some fun. I can trade you the right to travel to other worlds.”
"Oh?" The Jade Emperor was secretly pleased, but he didn't show it. "That's... also an idea..."
"Your Majesty, while the principles of Heaven exist, not everyone can understand them. Ordinary cultivators cultivate against the heavens to achieve immortality and to do as they please, never in accordance with Heaven and Earth. If they only want to see what they want to see, then let them see what they want to see. Let's see if they can truly defy Heaven and do as they please if you ignore these things." Lin Feng said, waving away a scene of apocalypse: "Just like this future, without coexisting with all things, the final result will be nothing but destruction."
"So that's how it is! Hahaha, I get it!" Chi You laughed loudly, "You brat, you don't even want to leave them a way out!"
"Your Majesty," Lin Feng said to the Jade Emperor, "what do you think?"
"Sounds good..." The Jade Emperor nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty," Lin Feng said again, "If you could temporarily close the Heavenly Court and conceal the Heavenly Dao, this matter would be much easier."
"Demon Emperor, this is no simple matter," the Jade Emperor said with difficulty. "Sealing off the Heavenly Court... concealing the Heavenly Dao, this is even more ruthless than severing the Heavenly Connection!"
Lin Feng couldn't help but shout, "It's not that we're ruthless, it's that they've always thought the Heavenly Court is easy to bully, and the one that escaped from the Heavenly Dao is themselves!"
Are they the one who escaped from the Heavenly Dao?!
The Jade Emperor's expression suddenly changed. Yes, these cultivators, even the saints, felt that this was them, and that they should fight against the heavens!
"Master, do you really think this is what they see as 'one'?" Lin Feng asked again.
"Hahaha, Demon Emperor, this is not true." Chi You did not answer directly. He had roughly guessed what Lin Feng wanted to do. The key was not him, but the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor's eyes were flashing wildly. He already foresaw what this would ultimately lead to. The cultivators were turning the world into chaos, which suited his current thoughts, but... countless innocent lives would be caught up in this battle.
The Jade Emperor spoke up: "Demon Emperor, if I close the Heavenly Court, these cultivators will likely become completely out of control."
"Your Majesty, hasn't Venus already discussed this with Wu Ming?" Lin Feng smiled slightly: "They won't sit idly by. Moreover, your sealing of the Heavenly Court and the appearance of the four lists of gods, demons, ghosts, and monsters will draw out all those troubles."
Four lists?
Chi You's gaze sharpened, and all his doubts were instantly answered. The Heavenly Court was sealed off, the Four Rankings appeared in the world, and there would never be peace in the world again.
Seeing the two pondering, Lin Feng said, word by word, "The Way of Heaven, the Way of Man, the Four Rankings, restore clarity to the world."
After a long silence, the Jade Emperor finally spoke, asking, "Demon Emperor, how confident are you?"
"Nine-tenths sure!" Lin Feng replied, "Unless they curb their greed."
Put away your greed?
The Jade Emperor chuckled inwardly. If he had curbed his greed, the current situation wouldn't have occurred.
