Chapter 312 Makes sense
Shan Gao disappeared so quickly with a man on his back that King Zhou almost suspected he was dazzled.
He was stunned for a long while before he said to Jiang Lisheng, "It is worthy of being a pet raised by the immortal of the immortal sect. It is so spiritual."
Jiang Lisheng said: "It likes me, it also likes to eat earthly food."
King Zhou smiled and nodded, "Sit down, both immortals. I just woke up and you are leaving. Let's talk a little more. Just now, the immortal said that there have been several major events in the world of immortal cultivation, and also mentioned the ghost world. So, the four worlds have begun to be turbulent again? I want to hear it too."
Wei Qinglan usually doesn't like to talk much, so she gestured to Jiang Lisheng to speak.
Jiang Lisheng actually didn't want to waste any more words. In the past, she had always let Shan Gao do all the talking. Now that Shan Gao had been sent away, Wei Qinglan obviously didn't want to speak. She could only pick out the general ideas and talk to King Zhou and others herself.
What she said was really too simple. She talked about the secret trial in the immortal world, the deaths of many immortal disciples, the disappearance of some elders in each immortal sect, and she also mentioned her and Wei Qinglan. Because she was greedy, she accepted a meal from the Pei family in Hexin City, and thus was involved in the cause and effect of the human world. She took over the Pei family's affairs, and naturally encountered the burning of Hexin City. She saved tens of thousands of people, and was involved in the current Yunshan City, etc. She just mentioned the general things in a few words.
Even though she said it simply, King Zhou and everyone else were still shocked. Especially when they heard that when Hexin City was burned down, tens of thousands of people who were infected with the poison had lost their souls.
Someone is arresting souls in large numbers, and I don't know what the purpose is.
Even the ghost world would not be happy if the Ghost Gate was overcrowded, right? After all, not all ghosts can practice. Many ghosts pass through the Ghost Gate and are reincarnated. There are also many ghosts who are reborn as animals. If there are too many ghosts, the ghost world will also be a burden.
Jiang Lisheng finished speaking after a moment, "Anyway, this is what happened. Brother Wei and I don't know who is causing the chaos behind the scenes, but we can be sure that someone from the immortal cultivation world is causing the chaos. The Feng family from the mortal world is also involved. Since the Yinsha ghost is being controlled by someone, the ghost world is obviously involved. Now the only thing missing is the demon world. We haven't encountered it yet, but we can't say for sure. After all, in the secret realm, high-level monsters have injured countless people, and maybe the demon world is causing trouble."
King Zhou sighed, "Alas, how long has the Four Realms been peaceful? Now there is unrest again."
Jiang Lisheng said casually: "It has been stable for tens of thousands of years. Hasn't it been stable since the war between gods and demons?"
King Zhou's heart ached for a moment. She casually said tens of thousands of years, but you have to know that the lifespan of people in the human world is only a hundred years, and even more, most of them are only a few decades. For people in the immortal sect, it is really a blink of an eye. It is nothing. He sighed deeply, "So, only my human world has always been weak. Ten thousand years ago, my human world survived in the barren mountains. Ten thousand years later, it was not easy to establish a stable dynasty and make the people live in peace. I really don't want the four realms to be turbulent again."
He was afraid of the collapse of mountains and rivers, constant natural disasters, flooding of rivers, and rampant plagues. He was afraid that his dynasty would collapse overnight.
"Don't worry, we in the immortal sect will protect the human world." Jiang Lisheng stretched out his claws and wanted to pat King Zhou on the shoulder, but Wei Qinglan stopped him by gently raising her hand and holding her claws in his.
She turned her head to look at Wei Qinglan, and touched her nose. She really needed to change her bad habit of patting people on the shoulder. She continued, "After all, many of us in the Immortal Sect also come from the Mortal Realm. Those with spiritual roots are selected into the Immortal Sect, just like the children of the Yun family, who have been selected into the Immortal Sect in every generation. And, I am also from the Mortal Realm."
"You were born in the mortal world?" King Zhou was really surprised. "No wonder this immortal likes to eat food from the mortal world."
"Yes, I eat whole grains and have never given up since I was a child. My master also likes to eat them, so he lets me do as I please." Jiang Lisheng said.
King Zhou nodded, "I feel relieved now that you have said that, otherwise I would be really scared."
"Don't be too scared, you're still pretty lucky. God probably doesn't want to take you away yet, otherwise you wouldn't have waited until we got here." Jiang Lisheng comforted him, "And you have a good prince, who is very kind and filial."
"That's true." King Zhou finally smiled and looked at Ji Man. "Man'er, I am very happy to have you."
Ji Man shook his head, "My father taught me since I was young that loyalty, justice, reason and trust are the ways of a crown prince, so I naturally cannot be unfilial."
King Zhou patted Ji Man on the shoulder and said, "You have worked hard recently. I am sorry for you."
Ji Man shook his head, "Father was also harmed by others, it's not Father's fault."
King Zhou said with relief: "When the Yunshan City incident is resolved, I will abdicate. You have grown into a qualified crown prince and can ascend the throne."
Ji Man immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Father, you can't do that. You have been rescued by the immortals and you are in your prime. I and the court officials will wholeheartedly assist you and protect the country."
King Zhou reached out his hand and helped him up. "I know you are filial. You should get up first. We can discuss this matter later."
Ji Man stood up and wanted to say something else, but then he realized that it was not appropriate to say more, since the two immortals were leaving soon. He looked at Wei Qinglan and Jiang Lisheng reluctantly, "Immortal Wei, Miss Jiang, when you leave this time, will you really, as Miss Jiang said, not come to the capital for a hundred or eighty years?"
"Well, that's about right!" Jiang Lisheng nodded.
Wei Qinglan nodded, "If it's not a serious matter, or something too involved, I won't come easily."
Ji Man said: "I have only known the two immortals for a short time. I thought I would stay for two more days, but I didn't expect that the two immortals would leave in just one day. I will never see them again in this life. I really... feel reluctant to let them go."
Jiang Lisheng tilted his head, "Meetings and separations are common in life, don't be so hesitant, you are the crown prince, you are the one who can do great things."
Ji Man's emotions were suddenly blocked by her words, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wei Qinglan chuckled, "My junior sister is right."
His smile was like a blooming ephemeral flower, so beautiful that many young eunuchs were stunned.
Jiang Lisheng stretched out his hand to cover Wei Qinglan's face and groaned, "Brother Wei, when we were in Hehuan Sect, you still said something bad about me. What are you doing now? Stop laughing."
Wei Qinglan stopped laughing and said, "Yeah."
Jiang Lisheng withdrew his hand, and everyone quickly looked away.
King Zhou sighed, "I have no spiritual roots, so I can only sigh and accept my fate. I really envy the immortals."
Jiang Lisheng disagreed with this, "King Zhou, you are the emperor of the human world. Look at the palace you live in, with carved beams and painted buildings, magnificent and splendid, golden bricks and green tiles, glory and wealth in your hands, power in your hands, the emperor gets angry, millions of people die, gold and jade are precious, what spiritual roots do you need? Even if it's just a hundred years, it's still interesting. What's good about the immortal gate? Practicing all day long, some people practice hard for hundreds or thousands of years, but they can't experience the seven emotions and six desires, some people's paths are blocked, they are eaten, torn, or eaten alive by monsters, or killed by people for treasures, or they can't get out of the secret realm and are trapped and die as a mummy, or they can't get through the thunder tribulation and are struck to death by thunder and turned into ashes, and so on and so forth, the way they die is different, do you think it's good?"
"Uh..." King Zhou was stunned and couldn't say anything good for a moment.
Jiang Lisheng stretched out his claws, wanting to pat his shoulder again, but just as he was about to stretch them out, he controlled himself and put them down, scratched Wei Qinglan's palm, and said something shocking, "So, the mortal world is so good, people have seven emotions and six desires, there are delicious food, drinks, and fun things, even if there are birth, aging, sickness, and death, so what? As long as you treat others kindly and have a good heart, even if you die and reincarnate, there will be another life, and the next life, and if you cultivate goodness in ten lives, maybe you will become an immortal."
After she finished speaking, she asked Wei Qinglan who was standing quietly beside her, "Brother Wei, right?"
Wei Qinglan nodded and agreed with her, "Yes."
King Zhou stroked his beard and suddenly realized, "The immortal is right. I have made a mistake."
