Duke Shengyang first tried to persuade Mo Ruyi with his emotions and then with reason.
But.
From beginning to end, Mo Ruyi had only said one sentence. The Ancient World was directly under the Nine Heavens and only listened to the Nine Heavens' decree. Without the Nine Heavens' decree, there was no need to talk about anything else.
Duke Shengyang placed one big hat after another on Mo Ruyi. The small hat was to maintain the order of the world and the big hat was to protect the safety of the common people. He placed himself on the moral high ground and used morality to kidnap Mo Ruyi. If Mo Ruyi did not cooperate with him, then she would be letting down the Nine Heavens' prestige and the common people of the world.
However.
Mo Ruyi seemed to be impervious to fire and water. She was also unmoved by force or persuasion. No matter what you said, she remained indifferent.
This time.
Duke Shengyang's expression was a bit ugly. Not only did he lose face, he was also a bit embarrassed.
After all, this time he came in the Great Sun Dragon Carriage with a hundred Sky Domain Elders and tens of thousands of Sky Domain Immortal officials. Before he came, he already knew that Mo Ruyi was a difficult bone to chew. Duke Shengyang had been in the Lingluo Sky Domain for so many years and naturally knew that the existence of the Ancient World was more complicated. To be able to be conferred by the Nine Heavens as the Lord of Sengoku of the Ancient World and be able to make the Nine Heavens independent of the Ancient World, Duke Shengyang knew that Mo Ruyi's existence was definitely not simple.
It was because of this that he put on such a big show today. It was not only to intimidate Mo Ruyi, but also to let the other party know how firm his attitude was.
However, Duke Shengyang did not expect that as the ruler of the Lingluo Sky Domain, he was already being courteous for the sake of the big picture. However, Mo Ruyi did not give him any face at all!
Although Duke Shengyang was very unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
After all, the Nine Heavens had already decreed that the Ancient World was not under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Court of the Lingluo Sky Domain. Even if he was the Sky Domain Great Elder, who was both the ruler of the Sky Domain and the ruler of the Immortal Dao, he did not dare to openly go against the Nine Heavens' decree.
"Since Sengoku is unwilling to cooperate, I will not force you, but …"
After thinking about it, Duke Shengyang could only settle for the next best thing. He said in a deep voice, "The Ancient World is the hometown of that criminal, Emperor You. This old man suspects that he may be hiding here. If the Ancient Sengoku is unwilling to come out and search, then this old man will do it personally. Although the Nine Heavens have decreed that the Ancient World is not under the jurisdiction of our Lingluo Sky Domain, this old man should be qualified to search here, right?"
"Duke Shengyang."
Mo Ruyi stared at Duke Shengyang and said calmly: "I advise you not to cause trouble in Ancient World. You won't be able to bear the consequences if something happens."
"Hahahaha!"
Duke Shengyang laughed loudly and proudly said, "As the Great Elder in charge of the Celestial Domain, this old man's duty is to protect the safety of the Celestial Domain. For the dignity of the Celestial Dao, this old man is willing to do his best until his death. Even if something big happens, this old man will bear it alone. There is no responsibility that this old man can bear!"
As his voice faded.
Duke Shengyang waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!"
Watching Duke Shengyang leave with a group of Celestial Domain Immortal Officials in the Great Sun Dragon Carriage, Mo Ruyi, who was standing in the sky, shook his head slightly and said, "You seem to be righteous and selfless, but in fact, you are ambitious. Monopolizing the power of the Celestial Dao and coveting fame and fortune. If the Celestial Dao of the Nine Heavens falls, you pedantic and ignorant people will definitely take the credit."
A faint smile flashed across the corner of his mouth, as if he was somewhat disdainful. He said to himself, "You were not destined to die in the ancient times, but you may not have such good luck in the modern times. You can forgive the sins of the heavens, but you can't live with the sins you bring upon yourself."
As he said this, Mo Ruyi looked towards the northwest. That direction was the Red Cloud Sect. He murmured, "I wonder what kind of storm he is going to stir up in the Great Wilderness this time."
"He clearly knows that someone is adding fuel to the fire behind this incident. The purpose is to use him to stir up chaos in the Great Wilderness, and also to use the Nine Heavens to test his original sin. He knows, he must know, but since he knows, why does he still insist on doing this?"
"Does he want to take revenge on the Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens, or does he want to stir up chaos in the Great Wilderness?"
Slightly shaking his head, Mo Ruyi sighed and said, "If he just wants to take revenge on the Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens, then that's good … But if his goal is not just to take revenge on the Immortal Dao, then it's already too bad."
…
In the sky.
Duke Shengyang sat in the Great Sun Dragon Carriage, leading a group of Immortal Officials of the Heaven Domain towards the center of the world.
"Duke Shengyang, where are we going now?"
"Naturally to the Shang Qing Sect." Duke Shengyang's voice came from the Great Sun Dragon Carriage, "Emperor You's disciple used to cultivate in the Shang Qing Sect, and I heard that he has a master who lives in seclusion in the Shang Qing Sect. It is said that every time Emperor You returns, he will come to the Shang Qing Sect to pay his master a visit. If that disciple of Emperor You comes back from the dead, his master will definitely know."
"But …"
A Heaven Domain Elder beside him said worriedly, "The Shang Qing Sect's background is too complicated. If we rashly go and search, won't it be inappropriate?"
The Shang Qing Sect wasn't just the number one sect in the Ancient World, it was also the number one sect in Lingluo Heaven, perhaps even in the myriad worlds.
This was the number one sect.
Not only did it have many disciples and great power, but it also had a complicated background. The Shang Qing Sect was definitely worthy of being called the number one sect in the Great Wilderness.
As for how complicated the Shang Qing Sect's background was, it would definitely scare someone to death.
Legend has it that behind the Shang Qing Sect was Shang Qing Dong, one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Grotto-Heavens. Behind Shang Qing Dong was Shang Qing Heaven, one of the Nine Heavens. Behind Shang Qing Heaven was the true overlord of the world, the Heavenly Dao.
Even though the Immortal Dao was called the number one Great Dao in the Modern Age, it ruled the Great Wilderness.
But that was only a title.
In other words, the Heavenly Dao was still the true overlord of the world. The reason was simple, the Heavenly Dao had always been the overlord of the world. Only the overlord of the world could control the Heavenly Dao.
However, the Heavenly Dao had been sleeping since the Ancient Age. Even though the Modern Age had opened for ten thousand years, the Heavenly Dao still hadn't awakened. There was very little news of the Heavenly Dao in the Great Wilderness, so many people thought that the Heavenly Dao had fallen. As for whether the Heavenly Dao had fallen or not, no one knew. They only knew that the Immortal Dao had been managing the laws of the myriad worlds for the past ten thousand years.
Because of this, there was the saying of the Immortal Dao in the Nine Heavens. Many people in the Modern Age thought that the Immortal Dao represented the Nine Heavens and the Nine Heavens were the Immortal Dao.
Actually, this wasn't the case.
The Nine Heavens was the Sacred Ground of Radiance, the Nine Heavens. The Immortal Dao was only the overlord of one of the Nine Heavens, the Profound Heaven.
In addition, the Buddhist Dao was also the overlord of one of the Nine Heavens, the Western Heaven.
The Heavenly Dao was also the overlord of one of the Nine Heavens, the Azure Heaven.
Because in the Modern Age, the Heavenly Dao had yet to awaken. Buddhism was also in a semi-hidden state. Only the Immortal Dao was relatively high profile in the Nine Heavens. It was also called the number one Great Dao and was in charge of the order of the world. Over time, in many people's hearts, the Immortal Dao represented the Nine Heavens.
