Upon hearing this, Fang Jian slowly sat up, then looked at Wude Xingjun and asked, "What do you think?"
Wude Xingjun pondered for a moment, then said, "Immortal Lord, I have a bold idea."
"Tell me about it." Fang Jian said.
Wude Xingjun said, "I suspect the Outer Path True Demons deliberately withdrew in order to cause us to 'encounter' the people of the Bright Cult. They might be plotting a conflict between the Heavenly Court and the Bright Cult."
Fang Jian said, "You're saying that the Outer Path True Demons withdrew their forces from the borderland surrounding the Golden Liubao Realm in order to sit back and watch the fight unfold, hoping to provoke a fight between the Light Cult and us?"
"That's what I mean." Wude Xingjun nodded.
However, at this time, Heavenly General Tao Yuanxin said: "Immortal Lord, General Zhentian, I think this is impossible."
"Why?" Fang Jian turned his head and looked at Tao Yuanxin and asked.
Tao Yuanxin said, "The Outer Path True Demons have invaded the Unified Heavens and are the enemies of all living beings in them. Neither the Church of Light nor the Pantheon will likely leave the Outer Path True Demons alone and allow them to clash with our Heavenly Court. I believe the Outer Path True Demons must have been attacked by the combined forces of the Church of Light and the Pantheon. Therefore, they were temporarily underpowered and feared the might of our Heavenly Court, so they withdrew from the border heavens surrounding the Golden Liubao Realm."
Wude Xingjun looked at Tao Yuanxin and smiled, "But this doesn't make sense. According to the information Feng Puzi told us, the combined forces of the Bright Cult and the Pantheon Cult can only defend themselves against the Outer Path Demons. If they had the ability, they would have launched a counterattack long ago. Why wait until today?"
"This..." Tao Yuanxin was stunned for a moment, then said: "Maybe something happened in the rear."
"Something has happened." Fang Jian immediately said with a smile: "Earth, human demon."
Fang Jian continued, "The Outer Path True Demon is withdrawing his power. First, he wants to temporarily escape the fierce battle with the Bright Cult and the Pantheon Cult. This allows him to concentrate his power and break through the Heavenly Court's barrier on Earth, allowing him to enter and strangle the demon Chi Xiao. Second, the Outer Path True Demon wants to drive the tiger to devour the wolf."
After saying this, Fang Jian looked at Wu De Xing Jun and Tao Yuanxin and said, "You each guessed half right."
"Driving a tiger to devour a wolf?" The generals were slightly startled when they heard this. Then Tao Yuanxin said, "Does the Church of Light really want to ignore the outsiders and the true demons and attack us in Heaven first?"
Fang Jianyan said, "This is just my guess, but when it comes to controlling people's hearts, no one here can compare to the heretic true demons. Especially since there is an irreconcilable conflict between my Heavenly Court and the Bright Cult."
The gods looked at each other, and finally they were all a little skeptical.
At this time, Wude Xingjun asked again: "Immortal Venerable, didn't Feng Puzi go on a diplomatic mission to the Bright Cult?"
Fang Jian shook his head and said, "Since Feng Puzi left the Golden Liubao Realm, there has been no news until now. Now all he can do is rely on his own luck."
...
Feng Puzi was currently trudging through a vast expanse of ice and snow, and above his head was an 'angel' who was glowing with holy white light, wearing a long robe, holding a large sword, and with two pairs of snow-white wings on his back.
This angel's name is Rachel, and she used to be Feng Puzi's good friend. But this former good friend is now closely monitoring Feng Puzi.
The ice and snow below were extremely thick and the cold was so strong that even though Feng Puzi was a cultivator at the Yangshen realm, he still felt the biting cold when he walked on it.
Feng Puzi's face was covered with frost, his legs were shaking constantly, and the magical Taoist robe on his body, which was warm in winter and cool in summer, now looked extremely thin in this world of ice and snow.
Seeing Feng Puzi's body getting stiffer and stiffer, Rachel couldn't help but say, "Confess to the Lord. The Lord will forgive your sins."
Hearing this, Feng Puzi stopped walking immediately, then raised his head with difficulty and said to Rachel, "First of all, I am innocent. Secondly, I do not believe in your 'Creator', and I never have!"
"This is your sin," Rachel said. "You have attracted the power of paganism and brought chaos to the chaotic world."
Feng Puzi couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. He looked at Laqier and said, "It was your supreme master who asked me to go to the Jambu World to seek help."
Rachel said expressionlessly, "I don't know about this, but even if it's true, we, under the leadership of the great Lord, have already achieved victory in our counterattack against the outer demons. A great victory is imminent. The realms we lost are gradually returning to the rule of light... including those in the Heavenly Court. Our holy warriors are already approaching those realms."
Rachel continued to say to Feng Puzi, "You attracted them here. You are guilty, so the Lord is punishing you and washing away your sins with ice and snow. If you repent to the Lord and return to His faith, He will not only forgive your sins but also return all the treasures from your past life to you."
Feng Puzi sneered and looked at Raqier, saying, "Although I don't know what happened to the Church of Light that caused Yahweh to break his promise, I am now the messenger of the Huntian Palace. Don't even think about making me confess even a word!"
When Rachel heard this, her face suddenly turned cold and she said, "How dare you address the Lord by name!"
As soon as Raqier finished speaking, she raised the sword in her hand and slashed it towards Feng Puzi's position. In an instant, the thick ice under Feng Puzi's feet cracked, and Feng Puzi fell into the huge ice crack.
Then the ice crack closed again, freezing Feng Puzi inside.
