"Our Great Sunlight Immortal Dao has always been responsible for protecting the safety of all living beings in the world. Killing Emperor You's criminal and eliminating evil for the people is the duty of us Immortal Dao cultivators. Regardless of whether the Immortal Dao decrees or not, as immortal officials of the Celestial Domain, we have the responsibility to protect all living beings in the Celestial Domain."
Duke Shengyang continued to talk about his responsibilities and obligations in a righteous manner. "Moreover, Yu Toad and Chaoyang are returning. I believe that when they return, they will bring the decree of the Nine Heavens."
Hearing that Yu Toad and Chaoyang were coming back, the surrounding elders were very happy.
This was because they all knew that Yu Chan and Chao Yang were the two people with the greatest achievements among the disciples of the Holy Sun Sect.
Yu Toad was the Immortal Dao Monarch.
Chaoyang was the Immortal Dao Star Monarch.
They were all people of the Immortal Dao and held important positions in the Nine Heavens.
If Yu Toad and Chaoyang Immortal Monarch returned, then they would have confidence. If they brought the decree of the Nine Heavens, then they would have nothing to worry about.
"Since Yu Toad and Chaoyang Immortal Monarch will return soon, Great Elder, we should quickly return to the mansion and prepare to welcome them."
"No rush."
Speaking of Yu Toad and Chaoyang, Duke Shengyang's gloominess was swept away. His face revealed a proud radiance. He stroked his beard and said: "There is still a place in the Ancient World that this old man has not searched."
Everyone was puzzled and asked: "Where is Great Elder talking about?"
Duke Shengyang looked towards the northwest of the Ancient World and said in a deep voice: "Red Clouds Sect!"
Hearing that Duke Shengyang wanted to search the Red Clouds Sect, the group of elders who were originally happy because of Yu Toad and Chaoyang Immortal Monarch's return suddenly panicked.
Everyone in the Ling Luo Sky Domain knew that when the Red Clouds Sect was founded, the Saintess Su'Er personally came to congratulate them. Moreover, the words on the Sect Monument were written by the Saintess herself. Even the Goddess of Nature, Yun Nishang, personally came and gave them a seven coloured Tree of Life.
Although the Red Clouds Sect was founded less than ten thousand years ago, because of the special care of the Saintess and the Goddess of Nature, not only was it very famous in the Lingluo Territory, it was also very famous in the Myriad Worlds. Usually, the major Immortal Domains and the major Sengoku didn't even have enough time to curry favor with the Immortal Court. But now, Duke Shengyang actually wanted to search the Red Clouds Sect.
Wasn't this clearly going against the Saintess and Goddess Nature?
Who was the Saintess?
What kind of person was Goddess Nature?
Even the 3,000 Great Daos had to give him some face.
Everyone knew that the Red Clouds Sect was under the protection of the two concubines. If they went to the Red Clouds Sect to search, offending the Red Clouds Sect was one thing, but if they offended the two concubines, who would be able to bear the consequences? This was even more terrifying than offending the heavens in the Modern Era!
"When Emperor You was young, he cultivated in the Red Clouds Sect. As far as this old man knows, there are many Chi Xiao people in the Red Clouds Sect who have a close relationship with Emperor You. If that criminal Emperor You returns, he may have also gone to the Red Clouds Sect."
Duke Shengyang continued in a deep voice, "Although the Red Clouds Sect is under the protection of the Saintess and the Goddess of Nature, we can't ignore the Red Clouds Sect because of this."
"But … …"
Just as Elder Tian Yu opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Duke Shengyang and shouted, "No buts, for the dignity of the Great Sun Nine Heavens Immortal Dao, for the Great Wilderness, and for the safety of all living things, this old man doesn't hesitate to offend the Saintess and the Goddess of Nature!"
"This old man still has the same words, if your heart is full of righteousness, you don't fear the Heavens or the Earth. If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, then stay here. This old man will go to the Red Clouds Sect alone to search!"
Duke Shengyang was worthy of being called Duke Shengyang.
Not only was he able to bear the great honor of being the pillar of the Ling Luo Heavenly Domain, but he was also able to bear the great authority of the Heavenly Domain's ruler. For the sake of the Great Dao and the common people, he was willing to do his best until his death. It was very admirable. His words won the entire hall. The gathered Immortals applauded and cheered. Many young people stood up excitedly and asked to follow Duke Shengyang to the Red Clouds Sect to search.
In the cheers of the crowd, Duke Shengyang sat in the Great Sun Dragon Carriage. Although the surrounding Elders and Immortal Officials didn't want to search the Red Clouds Sect, the current situation didn't allow them to not think about it. For the time being, if they didn't go, they would offend Duke Shengyang. Even if they didn't offend Duke Shengyang, Duke Shengyang's words had already put them on a pedestal. If they didn't go, they would be seen as greedy for life and afraid of death. They didn't deserve to be Immortal Officials of the Heavenly Domain, so they could only follow Duke Shengyang to the Red Clouds Sect.
Inside the Shang Qing Sect.
Yun Wan looked at the majestic group of people following the Great Sun Dragon Carriage to the Red Clouds Sect and said, "I have long heard that Duke Shengyang is a righteous man who abhors evil, selfless, and is not afraid of power. Seeing him today, he really lives up to his reputation. It's a pity that he doesn't know how complicated and terrifying this matter is. I don't know if his blind search will bring about a disaster."
"Ha!"
Granny Lotus leaned on her walking stick and looked at the majestic group of people leaving. She smiled and said, "Wan 'er, I didn't think that even you would be deceived by this hypocritical Duke Shengyang."
"Granny, what do you mean?"
"It's true that the Duke of Shengyang abhors evil. It's also true that he's righteous, honest, and not afraid of power. However, it's too fake to say that he's selfless." Granny Lotus smiled faintly and said, "I have seen many people in my life. I have seen many hypocritical people who talk about righteousness and morality, but I have also seen many of them. But to say that Duke Shengyang is a hypocrite, I admire him very much."
Yun Wan didn't quite understand and asked, "Hypocrite is a reality?"
"Duke Shengyang's ambition has always been great. It's just that he hides it very well and pretends it very well. Moreover, he is very greedy for fame. It can even be said that he is obsessed with fame. Do you really think that he is doing these so-called righteous things for the sake of the so-called justice? No! He just wants to use these things to raise his prestige. "
Granny Lotus sat in the pavilion and sipped her tea. She continued, "This time, many people from all over the world came to the Lingluo Territory to raise their prestige and become famous. Those geniuses of the Great Dao, those Heaven's Will, and Duke Shengyang is no exception."
"However, Duke Shengyang is a smart person. The Immortal Path of the Nine Heavens did not issue a decree. The other geniuses of the Great Dao only dared to shout slogans. However, Duke Shengyang did not just shout slogans. He used practical actions to raise his prestige. First, he announced the Lingluo Territory, then he imposed martial law. Now, he has mustered a large force to come to the Ancient World to search for the whereabouts of Emperor You."
