Human Realm, Tianyue Capital, Observation Tower of the Imperial Palace.
Shi Potian stood on the highest platform of Tianyue Capital with his hands behind his back, looking towards the north.
A few hundred thousand miles in that direction was the capital of Fire Country, the current Ming Country's Guang Ming Capital.
Although Shi Potian was at the Divine level, his gaze could not penetrate through the distance to see the Guang Ming Capital that was a few hundred thousand miles away. He could only faintly feel some changes in the atmosphere there.
Not long ago, he also received an urgent summon from the Supreme Security Committee, but he did not go. This summon was not forceful, nor targeted. It did not have any restrictions on an expert like him.
Moreover, he was the commander-in-chief of Tianyue Capital. This matter was of great importance, and he had the right to make decisions on the spot. No matter what happened, he did not need to obey the orders from the rear.
Before clarifying the situation, Shi Potian would not act rashly no matter what.
Princess Yu Qing floated over. She wore a yellow palace dress, a phoenix crown on her head, looking graceful and luxurious. Because she had entered the Saint level, there was no sign of aging on her face, instead, she looked younger, like a woman in her early twenties.
"Imperial brother, what happened?" Princess Yu Qing also received an urgent summon from the Supreme Security Committee. Of course, she would not act rashly. Then, she received Shi Potian's summon.
Shi Potian looked at the distant night sky in the north, shaking his head: "I don't know, but I feel the violent fluctuation of the Divine level aura."
Princess Yu Qing's expression also became solemn. There were only three Divine level experts in the Supreme Security Committee. If something happened to any of them, it would have a huge impact.
However, to her imperial brother, it was a good thing no matter which Divine level expert was in trouble. He looked somewhat uneasy.
Although Princess Yu Qing's cultivation was high, she was not at the Divine level. She also could not feel any change in aura. She could not make any judgment.
"Imperial brother, do you want me to rush over to take a look?" If something happened to a Divine level expert, it was a big matter. Princess Yu Qing felt that it was necessary to investigate.
Shi Potian shook his head again: "Forget it, someone will send a message soon. Moreover, I keep feeling somewhat uneasy, as if something bad is going to happen. "
Princess Yu Qing's expression became even more solemn. A Divine level expert's aura was divine and could predict fortune and misfortune. Even Shi Potian felt a strong sense of uneasiness, it was definitely not a good thing.
The two of them remained silent for a while. Abruptly, the magic formation on the observatory lit up with a dazzling light. Next, a paper crane condensed from golden spell symbols flew out from the void and landed on Shi Potian's hand.
After the paper crane landed, the golden runes on its body shone brightly. Shi Potian activated the runes one by one according to the special order that they had agreed on, and finally shut down the golden talisman that was about to explode.
This was a Level Ten Talisman, and the spell contained within it was enough to injure a Sage. If the array was not opened in the correct order, the talisman would explode.
Even a Divine-level expert or an even higher level expert would not be able to rely on brute force to break the talisman.
In the more than one hundred years of confrontation between the Human Race and the Devil Race, the magical arts of the Human Race had developed rapidly, and all kinds of powerful and wonderful magical arts had been developed. This paper crane technique was only one of them.
Shi Potian undid the formation, and the paper crane turned into a letter. The message was simple: Gao Zhengyang has returned and killed Bai Xinyuan.
There were a total of ten words, but Shi Potian read it three times. His expression was originally not good, and after reading the letter, his expression was so cold that it was about to freeze.
Princess Yu Qing could not see the contents of the letter, but just by looking at Shi Potian's expression, she knew that the situation was not good. But since Shi Potian did not say, she did not ask.
In these hundred years, as Shi Potian continued to break through, his power became stronger and stronger, and his desire for power also became heavier. Princess Yu Qing and Gao Zhengyang's relationship was ambiguous, and this made Shi Potian feel very uncomfortable. Towards Princess Yu Qing, he could not help but have some suspicions.
Princess Yu Qing also knew Shi Potian's thoughts, and she tried her best to keep a distance, and not take the initiative to seize power.
Of course, although Shi Potian had the Mountain Country, he did not have many subordinates. There were many things that he still needed her help as his younger sister.
Shi Potian was silent for a while, and passed the letter to Princess Yu Qing.
After Princess Yu Qing finished reading the letter, her expression did not change, but her heart was in turmoil.
Gao Zhengyang had returned!
To the newly born human race in these hundred years, Gao Zhengyang was just a name, a legend. It could be said that ninety percent of the human race in this world did not understand Gao Zhengyang.
But Princess Yu Qing knew Gao Zhengyang well, knew that he was overbearing and arrogant, knew that he was cold and heartless, knew that he was talented and bold.
When Gao Zhengyang was in the human realm, all the heroes and experts were his foil. He was like the blazing sun in the sky, and no one could shine in front of him.
It could be said that when Gao Zhengyang was around, he was an insurmountable peak to all the experts of the same generation.
Bai Xinyuan, such a peerless talent, was overshadowed when Gao Zhengyang was around. The red sun, the idol of countless women. She was merely one of Gao Zhengyang's women.
Her royal brother was so proud and arrogant. But in front of Gao Zhengyang, he still had to bow and scrape, trying to please Gao Zhengyang.
It was also that experience that left a shadow in her royal brother's heart. So when he reached the god level, he started to think of ways to eliminate all of Gao Zhengyang's influence.
Princess Yu Zhen could understand Shi Potian's thinking, but she did not agree. If Gao Zhengyang died, these would not be a problem.
Over a hundred years had passed, and everyone thought that Gao Zhengyang had died and would never appear again. But he appeared just like that.
Princess Yu Zhen felt that other than a few people, no one would welcome Gao Zhengyang's return. Even Wu Xiang would not like to have another person above him ordering him around.
Gao Zhengyang was also that kind of arbitrary and ruthless person. When he was around, everyone had to listen to him. This kind of boss was even more of a headache.
"What does royal brother want to do?" Princess Yu Qing asked.
Shi Potian said gloomily, "He is just a god level expert, why should I be afraid of him."
He paused and said, "If he comes back, then he comes back. I am overseeing Tianyue Capital, and have no time to see him. Let Lu Jiuyuan and Xiong Ba worry about it. "
Princess Yu Qing heard that Shi Potian was a little guilty, but they were family after all. She thought and said, "Then I will go and see the situation."
"You are not allowed to go."
Shi Potian shouted, and then realized that his attitude was too rough, so he lowered his voice and said, "Our Shi family does not need to beg anyone."
Princess Yu Qing sighed helplessly. Sure enough, Shi Potian still could not forget about the past. But at that time, Shi Potian took the initiative to please Gao Zhengyang, and no one forced him.
Now he put all the shame on Gao Zhengyang, it was a little too much. More importantly, Shi Potian could not afford to be calculative with Gao Zhengyang.
What kind of person was Gao Zhengyang, he had already displayed the power of a god level expert over a hundred years ago. Until now, none of the god level experts dared to say that they could be compared with Gao Zhengyang back then.
Bai Xinyuan was also publicly recognized as the strongest sword god of the human race. So what, Gao Zhengyang killed him the moment he came back. Although she did not know what Gao Zhengyang was thinking, he undoubtedly proved his strength again.
Princess Yu Qing did not agree with her royal brother, but she would not go against him at this time. She would only say, "Then we will wait for the news first."
Shi Potian thought for a while, then relaxed his expression and explained to Princess Yu Qing, "I do not want to go against Gao Zhengyang, but he is an extreme person, and his methods are ruthless. Back then, Yue Qingyu and Shi Han died in battle at Tianyue, he will probably find trouble with me because of this. "
Princess Yu Qing looked at Shi Potian indifferently, "Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
Shi Potian originally wanted to scold Princess Yu Qing, but under Princess Yu Qing's clear and cold gaze, his lips moved, and in the end, he did not say those self-deceiving words.
After a long silence, Shi Potian said, "No matter what, those matters are in the past."
"Actually, you can make it clear to Gao Zhengyang." Princess Yu Qing suggested, "He is ruthless, but he is also magnanimous. If you admit your mistake, there is still a chance … "
Before Princess Yu Qing finished, Shi Potian said sharply, "What did I do wrong, why should I admit my mistake. For a hundred years, billions of humans died under Tianyue. Yue Qingxue, Shi Han, what are they! "
Princess Yu Qing could not help but sigh. In these hundred years, Shi Potian controlled one-third of the human army, and also reached god level, his mentality had long become inflated. He could no longer lower his head to anyone.
Shi Potian sneered, "Gao Zhengyang may be stronger than me, but so what, does he dare to touch me!"
Shi Potian said as he walked a few steps forward, pointing to the dark east, "There are billions of demon army stationed there. If I have an accident, Tianyue will immediately collapse. At that time, not only the billions of humans in Tianyue will die, even the humans hiding at the back will not be spared … "
Tianyue was the strongest fortress against the demon race, the hope of all humans, and also the most important barrier for the human race.
In these hundred years, it was all because of Shi Potian leading the army and soldiers to firmly block the demon race under Tianyue. Shi Potian had great prestige in Tianyue, no one could compare to him.
Gao Zhengyang, who disappeared for a hundred years, could not be compared to Shi Potian.
Not to mention that Shi Potian had recruited countless disciples in the past one hundred years. In addition, the royal family was originally a powerful force, firmly controlling the army of Tianyue.
From the generals to the soldiers, everyone only knew Shi Potian. Without Shi Potian's approval, the orders of the human race's Supreme Security Council could not be carried out.
It was also because he held such great power that Shi Potian dared to challenge the Supreme Security Council. Although he was wary of the returning Gao Zhengyang, he was not too afraid.
Shi Potian was also very clear that although Gao Zhengyang was ruthless and ruthless, this person's mind was abnormally clear, and he acted appropriately. Just because Tianyue was in his hands, Gao Zhengyang did not dare to touch him.
Moreover, Shi Potian had been tossing and turning for more than a hundred years, he had also found some other ways. It was not that he did not have people supporting him.
Therefore, after the initial shock, Shi Potian quickly calmed down and regained the demeanor of an emperor.
He said to the deep night sky, "I won't provoke you, you also won't provoke me!"
Hundreds of thousands of li away, Gao Zhengyang could not hear Shi Potian's words. But Xiong Ba, Lu Jiuyuan, and Wu Xiang all expressed similar intentions.
"Shi Potian is the commander of the army of Tianyue, the soul of the entire army, we cannot touch him."
Xiong Ba emphasized, "Indeed, he is somewhat arrogant and despotic, and has made some mistakes. But compared to his achievements, these are all small matters. "
Lu Jiuyuan also said, "Shi Potian is a person of great talent and bold vision, he is the cornerstone of our human race, we cannot touch him lightly."
Gao Zhengyang smiled, "You two, I only asked about Shi Potian's situation, you speak as if I want to do something to him."
Lu Jiuyuan stroked his long silver beard and said indifferently, "You mistakenly killed the Heart Monkey as soon as you came back, we are only reminding you not to make trouble. The human race only has these few Deity level experts, we cannot afford to make trouble. "
If it was a hundred years ago, when Gao Zhengyang's reputation was at its peak, Lu Jiuyuan naturally would not dare to speak to Gao Zhengyang like this. But a hundred years was a bit too long for the human race.
Although Lu Jiuyuan did not forget Gao Zhengyang's tyrannical strength, he did not have the same reverence as before. After all, the current Supreme Security Council was completely presided over by them, this was their power.
Although Gao Zhengyang was the chairman of the Supreme Security Council, he almost did not manage a single thing. This position of chairman had become a completely empty position.
To the Supreme Security Council, Gao Zhengyang was an outsider. What was even more outrageous was that Gao Zhengyang killed Bai Xinyuan as soon as he came back.
No matter what reason Gao Zhengyang had, killing Bai Xinyuan like this completely broke the rules of the Supreme Security Council.
Lu Jiuyuan had a lot of resentment in his heart. Therefore, he expressed his dissatisfaction directly, which was rare for him.
Xiong Ba was even more angry, but he restrained himself. Because just now, he clearly felt Gao Zhengyang's impatience.
Gao Zhengyang nodded, "About the Heart Monkey, it was indeed my fault. But he is not dead yet. I will always have a way to bring him back to life. "
Hearing this, Xiong Ba and Lu Jiuyuan were full of doubt and disbelief. Wu Xiang, however, knew that Gao Zhengyang did not care to lie, and his old face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.
"Zhengyang, then quickly save the Heart Monkey."
Wu Xiang sighed, "In these hundred years, the Heart Monkey has made great contributions to the Supreme Security Council."
Wu Xiang was Gao Zhengyang's Shishu, and he was indebted to him for grooming him. Gao Zhengyang could be rude to Lu Jiuyuan and the rest, but he could not be rude to Wu Xiang.
He said with a straight face, "Saving the Heart Monkey needs to wait for the right time. Shishu, don't worry, I will not let him die."
"That's great." Wu Xiang was very pleased.
Bai Xinyuan had always been protective of him and the Buddhist sects. Although it was because of Gao Zhengyang, Wu Xiang was very grateful. He sincerely hoped that Bai Xinyuan would have a good ending.
Xiong Ba was also a little excited. If Bai Xinyuan could come back to life, that would be great. Although he liked to play with power, he knew that the foundation of power was not in politics, but in strength.
Although Bai Xinyuan was on Gao Zhengyang's side, he was still a barbarian. As long as Bai Xinyuan was around, Xiong Ba's words in the Supreme Security Council would carry a lot more weight.
Lu Jiuyuan was a little embarrassed, but he was very shrewd and could quickly adjust himself. He cupped his hands at Gao Zhengyang. "Zhengyang, I wronged you just now, please don't blame me."
Gao Zhengyang flicked his sleeves and said casually, "Daoist, you are too polite. More than a hundred years ago, it was because of everyone's united efforts that we could create the Supreme Security Council. "
These words also awakened the memories of Xiong Ba, Lu Jiuyuan, and the rest.
That's right, more than a hundred years ago, Gao Zhengyang was at the peak of his power. That was why he could break through the barriers of the country and establish the Supreme Security Council.
It was also this organization that unified the power of the human race. In these more than a hundred years, it had played an extremely important role. If not for the Supreme Security Council, the seven countries would have fought each other, the Buddhist sects and Daoist sects would have plotted against each other, and the barbarians would not have joined this mess.
The scattered human race and barbarians would have long been swallowed and destroyed by the demon race.
Now that they thought about it, Gao Zhengyang was really far-sighted at the time. His vision and knowledge were far above them.
However, as time passed, too many things had happened in the past hundred years, and too many people had changed. No matter what, it was difficult to return to the way it was in the past.
Soon, Xiong Ba and Lu Jiuyuan were silent. Wu Xiang wanted to say something, but after hesitating, he did not say it in the end.
Wu Xiang was willing to support Gao Zhengyang's rise to power, but the current situation was very complicated. There were many rising stars in the Buddhist sects, and they had their own demands. Wu Xiang also had to coordinate internally.
Moreover, he would not live for long. He also had to consider the problem of his successor and the future of the Buddhist sects.
Originally, Gao Zhengyang was the most suitable successor, but seeing him establish the Palace of Great Light and the Supreme Security Council, he knew that he did not have much affection for the Buddhist sects. He had no desire to promote the Buddhist sects.
However, this problem could not be solved.
Wu Xiang looked at Gao Zhengyang with some guilt, hoping that he could understand his difficulties.
Gao Zhengyang nodded to Wu Xiang, indicating that he understood Wu Xiang's difficulties.
Who would be willing to hand over power after obtaining it?
After more than a hundred years, the Supreme Security Council had gone through all kinds of breakthroughs and also had its own power structure. His sudden return had broken the balance of power.
No matter what the other parties thought, they needed time to digest this shock.
Everyone warmly welcomed his return, and then bowed their heads to worship him, willingly obeying his orders …
Gao Zhengyang did not believe that there was such a good thing in the world. Only Hong Ri, who was his woman, would be willing to give everything unconditionally. Even Yue Qingxue had her own problems. He could not throw caution to the wind just because he was alone.
Power, social class, benefits, these invisible laws bound everyone together. Whether it was Xiong Ba, Lu Jiuyuan, or Shi Potian, they were all part of it. They had to act according to the invisible laws.
Gao Zhengyang completely understood all of this. However, he was different from everyone else. He was an outsider, not belonging to the human world, not even belonging to the universe. He had nothing to do with Cerulean Planet.
His unparalleled power and vision allowed him to jump out of these barriers and restrictions.
Just like Bai Xinyuan's leap, free and unfettered.
Gao Zhengyang said to Xiong Ba and the others, "In a few days, we will go to Tianyue City together to see Shi Potian and the demon army …"
Xiong Ba and Lu Jiuyuan were a little surprised that Gao Zhengyang was willing to go to Tianyue City. That was Shi Potian's territory. He also had the Tianyue Token, which controlled the center of Tianyue City's formation.
Within Tianyue City, Shi Potian could kill ten Divine level experts by himself. Out of the most basic safety considerations, no Divine level expert would go to Tianyue City unless it was necessary. Even if they went, only one Divine level expert would go. This was to prevent Shi Potian from going crazy.
"Good, this is very sincere …" Xiong Ba praised.
