Upon hearing Master Xuantian's words, Li Zhu finally realized a statement Master Xuantian had made earlier.
'Soul is not soul, body is not body; two lifetimes cannot change fate!'
Does "fate" refer to his destiny?
"Master, what other dangers are there? Why is all this happening? And what's with the demon within me?"
Li Zhu couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering him!
"Now that you've reached the Transcendent Realm, there are indeed some things I can tell you..."
Upon hearing Master Xuantian's words, Li Zhu realized that his strength had unintentionally broken through to the Transcendent Realm, a realm that others could only dream of, he had actually reached after dying once. If this were to get out, wouldn't it be a bit infuriating?
"The demon suppressed within you is none other than Chi You, who once existed..."
This sentence made Li Zhu suddenly realize why the Miao people respected this demon god so much; it turned out to be their ancestor…
Everyone thought he was dead, but his shadow could be seen in every major upheaval; he was still plotting his comeback…
However, this world is no longer what it once was. It is said that after King Zhou, there will be no more human emperors, and this is not just empty talk, because the fortune of this world is no longer sufficient to support the existence of a human emperor...
Therefore, after the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor was only called the Son of Heaven. In order to suppress the demons and gods, the Zhou Dynasty built the Nine Tripods to gather the energy of heaven and earth, so that the Son of Heaven would have the ability to suppress the demons and gods...
Every time a demon god appears, it brings chaos to the world, and rivers of blood flow...
Countless people were displaced and their lives became unbearably miserable. Even so, each time, someone destined by fate would appear and suppress the demon god…
And you are the chosen one. Your future is shrouded in mist, impossible to see clearly. Countless possibilities can be seen within you. Whether you can suppress the demon god once again depends on you…”
Upon hearing Master Xuantian's words, Li Zhu recalled the scene from his previous life before his transmigration. He had transmigrated while offering incense at the Dragon Head Temple on Wudang Mountain, and it was at that moment that the power of the demon god entered his body…
The timeline he lived in did indeed descend into chaos every few hundred years. Could all of this be related to the suppressed demon god?
If that's the case, it would be terrifying. Countless facts prove one thing: the people who suffer the most from war are always ordinary civilians, because they can only drift along with the tide of war, and are even used as food...
The distortion of human nature is vividly displayed in war, and there is even a saying: those who kill their mothers can be promoted and ennobled, and those who eat their fathers can be promoted and made rich!
This is one of the rules for survival in war: no matter how many people abandon their humanity, it shows that war is always cruel…
"So, Monk Duobao wasn't lying after all, because my appearance will plunge the world into chaos once again..."
Li Zhu murmured to himself, in his view, whether it was the source of the chaos or the chosen one of destiny, it all stemmed from the great disorder that brought endless suffering and harm to the world…
"Your Highness, even if you didn't appear, the world would still descend into chaos. When calamity comes, no one can escape it. All you can do is end this calamity as soon as possible and restore peace and order to the world..."
Master Xuantian spoke calmly, which impressed Li Zhu. He was truly a highly accomplished master, remaining unmoved even when faced with a collapsing mountain. No matter how big the matter, he could handle it with equanimity…
"Your Highness, Chen Qingzhi has returned..."
Just then, the Marquis came to report. Li Zhu looked at the Taoist Master Xuantian, and before Li Zhu could speak, the Taoist Master Xuantian cupped his hands to Li Zhu and said with a smile.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now..."
"Please take care, senior. This junior will see you off with utmost respect..."
Li Zhu said respectfully, "Such a highly accomplished person, who helps others without seeking fame or fortune, deserves my respect..."
Only after Master Xuantian left did Li Zhu turn around and hurriedly say to the Marquis.
"Where is she? Quickly take me to meet her..."
"this…"
The Marquis looked at Li Zhu, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating, which angered Li Zhu, who immediately rebuked him.
"What are you doing? Take me there right now..."
"Your Highness...it's not appropriate for you to go like this..."
The prince finally stammered out his concerns…
"Me like this?"
Li Zhu looked at his clothes; there was nothing wrong with them. Then he couldn't help but ask...
"What's wrong with me? There's nothing wrong with it..."
"I wasn't talking about your clothes, I was talking about your behavior, it was really disrespectful..."
The Marquis said with a dark face!
Li Zhu raised his hands and realized that he had been holding Nazha's hands the whole time. His face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence for him. It was indeed inappropriate to go over like this. After all, capable people have their tempers. Bringing a woman along is fine, but going over hand in hand is really disrespectful. It makes the other person feel that she is not even as good as a woman...
"Cough cough..."
Li Zhu coughed lightly and finally let go of Nazha's hand, which made Nazha blush and run away...
Then Li Zhu acted as if nothing had happened and said to the Marquis...
"What are you looking at? Lead the way now, or you will be held responsible for disrespecting General Gao..."
The Marquis was so angry he wanted to chop Li Zhu up. This guy was truly inhuman; he didn't say anything about the trouble he caused, but instead blamed the person who reminded him. This double standard was truly despicable…
However, the Marquis did not refute this. He preferred to speak less and do more, otherwise, if Li Zhu set his sights on him, he would have a hard time...
As he approached the door, Li Zhu dashed out, shouting as he ran.
"Where is General Gao? Where is General Gao...?"
After seeing Chen Qingzhi, Li Zhu deliberately ran off and lost his shoes as well…
Upon reaching Chen Qingzhi, he immediately burst into laughter and asked...
Where is General Gao?
Seeing Li Zhu's urgency, Chen Qingzhi stepped aside and pointed to a middle-aged man beside him, saying...
"This is Gao Siji, General Gao..."
"So this is General Gao. He truly possesses extraordinary bearing and exceptional bravery..."
"Your Highness flatters me. I have long heard that Your Highness is a dragon among men, a great hero in the hearts of the people of the Central Plains at such a young age. I have heard of Your Highness's virtuous reputation even in this remote place of Youzhou, and seeing you today, I can confirm that you truly live up to your name..."
Gao Siji quickly replied politely, making Li Zhu extremely happy...
He had witnessed Li Zhu's actions just now. Although they were somewhat exaggerated, the respect shown to the surrendered general dispelled his last remaining concerns...
"General Gao, you flatter me. I have only ever had a dream: that justice and fairness in this world will surge forth like the waves of a mighty river..."
Li Zhu's words resonated deeply, stirring Gao Siji's passion. However, Wang Yanzhang and Zhao Feng, standing nearby, were puzzled, wondering why their crown prince's dream had changed.
