Yujing City, Tianjie, and the meeting platform.
Tianjie is located at the northernmost part of Yujing City. It is a street that runs across the east and west of Yujing City. However, compared with other streets, it is extremely deserted. Only the nobles who occasionally pass by in carriages and the patrolling soldiers walk on this road.
The reason for this is that Tianjie is where the 'Daodao Palace', the 'Five Regent Daochang' and the 'Conference Platform' are located, and it is the center of the entire Dadao Court.
The Dadao Palace is located in the north of the center of Tianjie. Going north from the intersection in the center of Tianjie leads to the Dadao Palace. On the left side of the intersection to the north are Taiyi Palace, Taichu Palace, and Taishi Palace, and on the right side are Taiji Palace, Taiyi Palace, and the meeting platform.
The six palaces are neatly arranged in the order of three on the left and three on the right, in front of the Avenue Palace.
The five regent Taoist masters usually do not show up. As long as it does not involve the affairs of the Great Dao Lord and the Xiantian Yuanshi Treasure Seal, the five regent Taoist masters will stay in seclusion and leave the affairs of the five major cabinets to their subordinates, the "Tai Fu".
The five great assistants are: Taoist Taizhen Taoist Master, Shangshu Taoist Master Taigu Taoist Master, Honglu Taoist Master Taihe Taoist Master, Central Office Taoist Master Taichong Taoist Master, and Imperial Palace Taoist Master Taiwei Taoist Master.
The five great auxiliary Taoist masters are all disciples of the five great regent Taoist masters, and their Taoism has all reached the second level of purity.
At this moment, in the council hall, the five great assistants were sitting on their thrones, discussing the return of Fang Jian and his party.
I only heard the Taoist Master Taizhen say, "Shangqing Renmi has sent a letter reporting that the special envoy of the Heavenly Court Dao Kingdom, Zhen Qian, has died. She was killed by the night patrol captain named Fang Jian."
"That's fine." Taikoo Daozun said, "There's no evidence after death."
Taiwei Daozun said, "But if this is the case, I'm afraid the Pure Good Dao Nation may not fully believe it."
Taoist Taizhen smiled and said, "We never expected the Pure Good Dao Nation to go to war directly with the Heavenly Court Dao Nation. The most important affairs of a nation are sacrifices and war. A single Cloud Pill is not enough."
The other four great assistants nodded slightly. The only things they cared about were sacrifice and war. The "sacrifice" here did not refer to the sacrifice to ancestors, but the worship of the "Tao" and the innate and infinite world of "Heaven and Earth". War was the matter of conquering with weapons.
Taoist Taichong nodded and said, "The military strength of the Jingshan Dao Nation is relatively strong among the many Dao Nation states, especially their general Huan Min, who is in charge of the army. His ability in leading troops in battle is probably no less than that of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman."
Taihe Daozun said: "This matter cannot be rushed, and must be handled step by step. As long as the Jingshan Dao Kingdom and the Tianting Dao Kingdom become enemies, it is only a matter of time before the two families go to war. As long as the Jingshan Dao Kingdom and the Tianting Dao Kingdom become enemies, it will be extremely beneficial to our Da Dao Court."
"Yes." The Taoist priests all nodded.
But when Taoist Taizhen saw the second half of Ren Mi's letter, his expression changed slightly and he said, "Not good, things have changed."
"Oh?" The other four Taoist priests raised their eyebrows and looked towards Taoist Taizhen.
Daoist Master Taizhen said, "The Golden Witch Clan's main altar and all its branch altars have been destroyed. Their leader, Shuzhi, has died. Now only the Xuechuanjian branch altar remains."
Hearing this, the four Taoist masters present frowned, "Who did it?" asked Taoist Master Taihe.
Taoist Taizhen said, "It's still Fang Jian. The letter says that when they were capturing Zhen Qian, the leader of the Golden Witch Clan, Shuzhi, had a conflict with Fang Jian for some unknown reason and fled into the Snowy Stream. Afterwards, Fang Jian directly destroyed many of the Golden Witch Clan's branch temples and the main temple, and Shuzhi was also killed in the end."
Upon hearing this, the four Taifu Daozun's expressions suddenly became solemn. They looked at each other, and Taiwei Daozun said, "I didn't expect that this Xuanjian Dao Country's hostage would have such strength."
Taoist Taizhen also nodded and said, "It seems that we underestimated him."
Taoist Taichong asked, "How is the man imprisoned in Duqing Valley?"
Hearing what Taoist Taichong said, Taoist Taiwei, Taoist Taihe and Taoist Taigu all turned their concerned eyes to Taoist Taizhen.
It doesn’t matter to them whether the Jinwu tribe is destroyed or how Shuzhi died. The person inside Duqing Valley is the most important.
Daoist Master Taizhen sighed slightly, then said, "That person was also rescued by Fang Jian and has been escorted back to Yujing City."
Taoist Taichong's eyes fixed, and then he was slightly startled, then he sighed and said: "This will cause some trouble."
The person who captured Di Meng and imprisoned him in Duqing Valley was none other than Taichong Daozun. However, this was not a decision made by him alone, but a joint decision made by the five great assistants, and he was the one who carried it out.
Why did they do this? The reason was not complicated. It was because after Di Meng was born, someone had taken a fancy to her and wanted to take her in as a disciple.
This person is the 'Taoist Master Tai Yan' of Yuzang Mountain. Although Yuzang Mountain is a sect and belongs to the ranks of 'common people', the Taoist Master Tai Yan in Yuzang Mountain was still honored with the title of 'Taoist Master' by the Dao Court.
There is no other reason, it is just because this Tai Yan Dao Zun is a powerful being in the Three Purities Realm, and is at the same level of strength as the five regents.
However, these powerful dragons in the Three Purities Realm are elusive and not everyone knows about them. Even the Taoist Master Tai Yan is rarely known in the Dao Court.
When Taoist Tai Yan came to Yujing and said that he wanted to accept Di Meng as his disciple, the five great assistants tried their best to stop it.
But at that time, Huisheng Da Daojun agreed directly "on his own initiative", which made the five great assistants very passive. However, Huisheng Da Daojun did another wrong thing immediately afterwards, which gave the five great assistants an opportunity.
That is, although Huisheng Daojun agreed to let Di Meng worship Taiyan Daozun as his master, he did not let Di Meng leave with Taiyan Daozun immediately. He wanted to keep Di Meng by his side for a while.
