"He has talent, but he doesn't have self-discipline. In the end, he will only bring disaster to himself and others. Suo Mingzhang is a good example." The Exalted Earth Luminary – Jiang Shen's gaze traversed through space as if he was looking through the cosmos and landed on the faraway World beyond Worlds.
Yang Ce said, "Now, I only hope that the North Star Emperor can make a decisive move and prevent the heretics from getting involved too deeply. In this way, Daoist Suo's matter will be settled, and Daoist Brother can set things right."
Without Suo Mingzhang's interference, Jiang Shen, who had already become a Virtual Immortal Heavenly Monarch, naturally possessed the ability to rule over the World beyond Worlds.
"The trouble that Daoist Suo has caused this time is too huge. It might cause the Immortal Court heretics to decide to invade our Dao universe. When that time comes, it would be a huge calamity." Jiang Shen's eyes were filled with worry, "After the storm, how many would be left?"
"I am unable to see what the result of this trial will be. Being in it, I can only try my best to save myself."
Yang Ce nodded silently. After pondering for a moment, he said, "I wonder if Fellow Gao and Fellow Ling will intervene?"
He was naturally referring to the Exalted Solar Luminary – Gao Han and the Exalted Lunar Luminary – Ling Qing who had left the World beyond Worlds and the Dao universe together with the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor.
"Definitely." Jiang Shen's expression was very calm.
He had known Gao Han and Ling Qing much earlier than he had known Yang Ce. His understanding of the two who had survived the Great Calamity was much deeper than others.
"The Pill Hall ended up in Daoist Suo's hands? Or … "Yang Ce asked.
Jiang Shenyan said, "He's not in Fellow Daoist Suo's hands. The people from the outer path have arrived, so he's busy dealing with them."
"According to Daoist Zhang of the Prime Clear lineage, the Pill Hall might end up in the hands of Yan Zhaoge and his son."
Yang Ce shook his head slowly, "What a pity, there might be more twists and turns. I can only hope that the heretics won't get it in the end."
"Although our paths are different, I must say that Fellow Daoist Shao is indeed a genius. Although she is not like Suo Yanlong, who is famous for his martial prowess, sometimes she is even more valuable. It is truly a pity that she has fallen."
Hearing this, Jiang Shen did not speak. His gaze was serene.
A figure seemed to appear in front of him.
She was a beautiful woman with a noble temperament, a hint of domineering strength amidst her laziness, and a hint of determination and fortitude amidst her casualness.
In the past, she had addressed him as Teacher Jiang, and he had also thought of her as the most talented junior and friend despite the difference in age.
But in the end, they parted ways and even became enemies.
Several thousand years had passed, and by the time Zhang Xuan had received any concrete news of him, it was already news of his death.
And now, he still had to compete with her successor.
Jiang Shen's gaze fluctuated slightly before returning to normal.
"However, I really didn't expect Fellow Suo to be so furious about Fellow Shao's death," Yang Ce said.
Jiang Shen said slowly, "The two of them used to be Dao companions in the past, but they had different aspirations, so they separated later on."
Yang Ce tilted his head slightly. "Then, now that fellow daoist Shao has fallen, could it be that fellow daoist Suo wants to change his tune?"
"It's not impossible." Jiang Shenwei said, "So, he's not just avenging Junhuang. After this disaster, it's just the beginning. He may no longer be neutral, but will side with His Majesty and Fellow Daoist Gao."
Yang Ce shook his head, "This isn't good news."
"Previously, he had already killed his way out from the encirclement of the Immortal Court heretics. Now, he might have returned to the World beyond Worlds," Jiang Shen said and strode forward, "We have to return as soon as possible."
Yang Ce walked with him. As they walked, he asked, "Fellow Daoist Chen has escaped, has Fellow Daoist Chen heard about it?"
"I've heard of it. It's expected that fellow daoist Chen would help fellow daoist Yan's descendant." Jiang Shen sighed and said, "It's a pity that he couldn't consider the big picture, and was trapped in his own personal matters, just like in the past."
The old man passed through layers of void and left behind a sigh.
"The storm is coming, and it's just around the corner."
Concealed Sovereign Yang Ce nodded, "Yes."
The two figures turned into streams of light and disappeared into the vast void's outskirts, heading towards the Dao universe.
…
Demon universe, Astro Mountains Starry Seas.
Amidst the vast universe, there was a vast world that connected the heavens and formed a vast universe.
Rays of lights and clouds were circulating around the universe, making this place look like a fairyland.
Outside of this world, within the cosmic void, a black wind passed through and arrived at this grand world, falling into it.
Although the black wind was filled with bloodlust and evil intent, it restrained itself when it arrived at this world.
After entering this world, there would be someone who would receive him.
Within this world, there were many celestial mountains that were overflowing with spiritual qi. The black tornado arrived at one of the celestial mountains and entered a cave manor.
There was already someone waiting for him in the cave manor. Upon seeing him, he smiled and said, "Didn't you receive the decree and leave the Astro Mountains Starry Seas?"
"I'll leave immediately." The black wind dissipated, and a figure appeared. He sat on the futon on the ground with familiarity, "Before I leave, I have something to tell you."
The cave manor's owner smiled and said, "What is it that requires you to make a trip here?"
"That old white deer almost died. The Longevity God's Coiling Dragon Crutch was broken, and he managed to escape with his life," said the Black Wind Great Demon.
"Oh? Who did it? "The cave manor's owner didn't seem to mind and asked casually.
The Black Wind Great Demon said, "In the past, the Awakened Sky Hall within the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace was used to store spiritual pills. It wasn't destroyed after the Great Calamity, and it still exists. That old white deer obtained a clue and went over there, but he suffered a huge loss."
"The Awakened Sky Hall still exists?" The cave manor's owner became interested, "What happened in the end?"
"In the end? That old white deer was almost killed on the spot. How could he care about the Awakened Sky Hall? "The Black Wind Great Demon snorted," The one who defeated him was the Three Clear Lineage. "
The cave manor's owner said regretfully, "That old deer should've been killed. He was too greedy and wanted to take everything for himself. However, he didn't even look at his own capabilities and ended up benefiting others."
He looked at the Black Wind Great Demon, "Are you thinking of going to the dao universe and fight for the Awakened Sky Hall with the Three Clear Lineage? You have a mission on your shoulders. "
"That's why I'm here to see if you're willing to take action." The Black Wind Great Demon said, "After everything is done, don't forget to share some of the benefits with me."
The cave manor's owner thought about it seriously and said, "Let's wait and see. If we take action now, it'll be the same as helping the Immortal Court. It'll be disadvantageous to our plan. However, after everything is done, we can look for an opportunity."
"You're overthinking too much." The Black Wind Great Demon was shocked.
The cave manor's owner smiled faintly, "I've waited for so many years. Why do I need to rush? You, on the other hand, have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders. Don't be careless and delay the important matter."
The Black Wind Great Demon chuckled, "I won't delay the important matter. However, it's just a small matter. The bald donkeys of the Blessed Lands of Saha are used to having a smooth life. Now that they're too complacent, it's fine to teach them a lesson."
"In any case, don't delay the important matter. I don't want to wait for tens of thousands of years." The cave manor's owner said indifferently.
"I don't want to either. We've waited for too long." The Black Wind Great Demon stood up and transformed back into a black tornado. He left the cave abode of immortals and left this fairyland-like world. He traveled far away and left the Astro Mountains Starry Sea where the Demon Clan lived and rested.
