The moment Hong Yi stepped into Marquis Wu Wen's mansion once again, even with his mind as strong as a Creator's, he still felt a myriad of emotions. Wave after wave of thoughts rose like a tide. Although it couldn't shake his heart, he truly felt the taste of exhaling and raising his eyebrows.
These emotions naturally couldn't affect his soul, but they allowed him to comprehend the various aspects of life.
Especially when he entered the main garden of the mansion, many gazes fell on him. Some of them were filled with reverence, as if they were looking at an emperor or a sage. This made him feel an indescribable emotion.
Five years ago, when he stepped out of Marquis Wu Wen's mansion, he was still a nobody.
But today, five years later, he was already a great sage and saint whose name shook the world. He founded a school and established the theory of the Eight Trigrams of Taiji.
Moreover, his martial arts and dao techniques were unfathomable. He was at the Creator Realm. No one in the world dared to look down on a Creator, the pinnacle of cultivation. Although the ancient Divine Emperor was a Yang God, he didn't dare to look down on a Creator.
Thoughts surged like a tide and filled his soul, allowing his thoughts to flow smoothly. However, they were soon controlled. Hong Yi's entire being became extremely calm. His clothes fluttered in the wind as he walked, completely attracting all gazes.
Yuan Ziyan, the Ziyan Academy's Chancellor, thought to herself, "Indeed the aura of a sage. It would be a pleasure to discuss the dao with him."
"Prince Yu is here." Hong Xuanji's eyes moved slightly when he saw Hong Yi walk in, but he soon returned to normal. He didn't greet him and only nodded slightly at Prince Yu, but didn't greet Hong Yi.
"I came with Master Yi of the Zhouyi Academy." Prince Yu said, "There's no need to be so polite, Grand Tutor."
"Your Holiness, I didn't expect to see you here. For the people of the Western Regions, you are willing to become a concubine. I really admire you."
Hong Xuanji didn't greet Hong Yi, but Hong Yi didn't greet him either. He just stared at the Essence Temple's pontiff like an eagle staring at a chick. Then, Hong Yi cupped his fists and revealed the identity of the Essence Temple's pontiff for the first time.
"What? What? "
When Hong Yi pointed out the identity of the Essence Yuan Temple's Supreme Pontiff, everyone present was shocked. This was because this news was too shocking.
Many speculated that the Grand Tutor Hong Xuanji's concubine was only a princess of Chara. They didn't expect her to have such a great background. She was the leader of a great sacred ground and the Essence Temple's pontiff!
If news of this got out, it would cause a riot. The entire Western Regions would be in complete chaos.
Especially when it came from Hong Yi's mouth, it was simply a matter that was set in stone. Clearly, what he said was the truth. Everyone knew that Hong Yi would not lie. How could the words of a sage be false?
"I knew it. I can't hide this from you, Hong Yi." The Essence Temple's pontiff frowned and suddenly said, "But I am willing to marry as a concubine to prevent the Western Regions from being affected by the Da Qian war. The Qian Emperor also agreed to this. This is permitted by the Qian Emperor. Hong Yi, are you trying to interfere with the national policy? "
"I'm afraid there's a conspiracy behind you." Hong Yi smiled. "This matter is complicated and confusing. It concerns the orthodoxy of the Tianzhou people. I had to come today. In the past two years, I've been meditating and studying the Precelestial Divination. I imitated the Middle Ages and traveled the Human Realm beyond Heaven. I found out that the Human Realm beyond Heaven and your Essence Temple are in cahoots. "
Hong Yi's words were very clear. At this moment, they had already reached the ears of many people. Those who heard these words immediately became vigilant in their hearts.
Those who could attend the banquet by Lake Haizi were all important figures. Naturally, they knew some clues and some big changes in the Imperial Palace in recent years.
Now that Hong Yi suddenly appeared at Hong Xuanji's concubine banquet and revealed the mystery, everyone seemed to have understood something. Suddenly, they had guesses about the core of the Imperial Palace. There were cracks.
This was the effect Hong Yi wanted.
The Imperial Palace had always been the orthodoxy. However, colluding with the young marshal and the power of the Human Realm beyond Heaven was not an honorable thing to do. Hong Yi's sudden appearance today to reveal some secrets was to plant a seed in the hearts of the nobles here that the Imperial Palace was not the orthodoxy and that it was not honorable. In the future, when the seed bloomed and sprouted, the effect would be achieved in one fell swoop.
Today's events would definitely be publicized. When that time came, everyone would speculate and the Imperial Palace's position in many people's hearts would be shaken.
"That's enough!" Hong Xuanji suddenly said, "Hong Yi, come in. Let's talk in private."
As he spoke, Hong Xuanji said calmly, "Everyone, today is the day I take in a concubine. It doesn't matter who the concubine is. If you have any ideas about national policy, you can submit a memorial to the Imperial Palace. I still have something to discuss with the Zhouyi Institute's Master. Please do as you please. "
As he spoke, Hong Xuanji's body moved and he walked into the mansion behind him.
"Everyone, this matter concerns the orthodoxy of Tianzhou. You must be careful. I, Hong Yi, am not in the Imperial Palace. It is not convenient for me to speak to the Emperor. However, you are in the Imperial Palace, handling political affairs is beneficial to the country and the people. One word can prosper the country, and one word can ruin it. Everyone, please take care. If you have time, you can come to the Zhouyi Institute. I will use the study of Yi to predict the future. Even though it is only one person's opinion, everyone should have an idea. "
Hong Yi spoke. His words were not clear, but they left an endless aftertaste.
"The Master of Yi is very profound and can see the future. If you talk about the Dao of Yi, I will definitely come and listen. If I can get my hands on Master Yi's calligraphy, that would be even better, "Yuan Ziyan suddenly said.
"That's fine."
Hong Yi nodded and quietly walked into Marquis Wu Wen's official residence, leaving behind many nobles in the courtyard. These nobles didn't know what Hong Yi and Hong Xuanji, the father and son who controlled the Imperial Palace and led the civil society, were going to talk about.
A flurry of discussion arose.
"I didn't think that Senior Tutor Hong's concubine would have such a powerful background!"
"I wonder if it's true?"
"Hong Yi has spoken. How can it be false?"
"Luckily, Hong Yi told us the truth. Otherwise, how could we know? We thought it was Chara's princess. This is too bizarre. Why would the Emperor agree to such a bizarre thing? "
"It seems that the Emperor and the Senior Tutor are playing a very big game of chess. Even the royal family is in the dark."
Hearing these discussions, Madam Zhao's eyes were filled with ruthlessness. She followed them in. She didn't believe that Hong Yi would do anything in Marquis Wu Wen's official residence.
In a hall in the deepest part of the Marquis's official residence.
It was very quiet and serene. It was completely different from the hustle and bustle outside. In the middle of the hall, there was a huge "Li" character placed in the center.
Hong Xuanji walked into the hall and sat down on the armchair at the front. He looked at Hong Yi, who had also walked in.
"Father, how have you been recently?" Hong Yi walked in and cupped his hands. He found a chair at the side and sat down. He said gently, "I hope I didn't disturb father's wedding night?"
Although the hatred between him and Hong Xuanji couldn't be washed away no matter what, Hong Yi didn't show any signs of wanting to kill Hong Xuanji. The two of them seemed to have an ordinary father and son relationship.
"You're very good." Hong Xuanji only said these three words. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Of course. Five years ago, father seemed to be reprimanding me here. However, after I made some progress in my cultivation, father failed to kill me several times. I killed Zhao Feirong, Wu Housekeeper, Hong Kang and Zhao Feier, and finally passed seven Lightning Tribulations. Father, Kong, the Young Commander, the Emperor, the Dark Emperor Daoist, the Yuan Qi God and the Sky-Splitting Emperor tried to kill me, but they still failed. Given my cultivation base, isn't it already earth-shattering? "Hong Yi said confidently with a smile in his eyes.
"Do you think I can't restore the souls of Fei Rong and Kang 'er?" Hong Xuanji said coldly.
"I know that father is very powerful and your cultivation base is close to the peak of the Martial Path, which is the Vacuum Shattering Realm. However, it's useless. Even if you can shatter the Vacuum Shattering Realm, you won't be a match for me. Do you believe me? It's as easy as flipping my hand to defeat you now? "
Hong Yi said. Although his tone was gentle, his words were dripping with blood and contained a strong sense of provocation.
"You are not a match for me!"
"I will defeat you! Yi Xin Flipping Palm! "
There was probably only one person in the world who could say these words in front of Hong Xuanji so directly and clearly.
However, Hong Yi was indeed qualified to say these words. The seven experts had failed to kill him, and they had even used the Boat of Fortune. Now that Hong Xuanji was here alone, it would not be difficult for Hong Yi to defeat him.
"Is this what Yi Zi said?" After hearing this, Hong Xuanji was not angry. Instead, he laughed. "It seems that although you have cultivated to the Creator Realm, you still have resentment in your heart. However, do you think that I can't use the power of the Boat of Fortune? Defeating me is as easy as flipping your hand. It won't be too late to say this when you become a Yang Spirit. "
"Of course, that's what I said." Hong Yi did not disobey. "The Way of Heaven punishes evil and promotes good. If you are evil, I will punish you. If you are good, I will promote you. This is also the Way of Yi. However, so what if you use the Boat of Fortune? An Immortal Monument has already been taken by me. "
"The Immortal Monument!"
When Hong Xuanji heard Hong Yi's words, his expression finally changed. "The Immortal Monument of the Divine Wind Nation was taken by you? No wonder Your Majesty didn't find any traces when he went deep underground. "
"I am proficient in Innate Divination, which is even better than the Future Lifeless Scripture. It is reasonable for me to be first. Do you think that the Book of Changes is just empty talk? "Hong Yi said slowly when he saw Hong Xuanji's expression change.
"Do you think that the Book of Changes is written by you? You were just born according to the Book of Changes. " Hong Xuanji's words became colder. "Meng Bingyun named you Hong Yi. I thought it was just an ordinary name. I didn't expect that it would help you seize the fortune of Heaven and Earth."
"Oh? Seize the fortune of Heaven and Earth for me? The fortune of Heaven and Earth can't be seized. Only the virtuous can occupy it. " Hong Yi felt like he heard the funniest joke in the world. "You are also a scholar. Can't you see through this? I'm afraid that one step away from the Vacuum Shattering Realm is a thousand miles barrier. It is impossible to break through. "
Hong Xuanji and Hong Yi's words seemed calm, but they were attacking each other's Dao Heart. They were trying to plant the seeds of failure in each other's hearts.
The dangers were all unbeknownst to him.
"I am about to break through. It might be tomorrow, today, or the next moment. Shattering the void externally and the acupoints of the True God internally. Do you think I didn't see through the mystery of the Vacuum Shattering Realm? Double shattering is the Vacuum Shattering Realm. It contains the mysteries of the world internally and the mysteries of the skin externally. You will never be able to imagine the mysteries of this realm. "Hong Xuanji's tone changed from cold to calm.
"Hmm?"
The secret of the Vacuum Shattering Realm was deduced by Hong Yi using the Book of Changes after he fought with the leader of Sky Beyond Sky. This was the highest secret of the Central World of Sky Beyond Sky. He did not expect Hong Xuanji to understand it as well.
"The Vacuum-shattering Realm is a hundred times more profound and powerful than the Peak-Stage Human Immortal's One Acupoint Opening One Hundred Acupoints. I've already taken half a step into that realm. I've gone further than anyone else, even Kong." Hong Xuanji said again. His tone revealed a strong determination to cross over to the other side. There was also cruelty, ruthlessness, coldness, and killing intent.
"Is that so? In the face of the Dao of Changes, what is it? "Hong Yi looked at Hong Xuanji as if he was watching a joke.
"Hmph! Others treat the Book of Changes like a treasure, but I use it as a material to ignite a fire. "Just then, a voice sounded.
It was a middle-aged noblewoman with a cold expression. It was Madam Zhao. She held a scroll in her hand. It was the gift from High Duke Li, Hong Yi's handwritten manuscript of the Book of Changes. At this moment, she held the manuscript and threw it into a burning cauldron.
"The words of the sages are the Great Dao of the world. How can it be burned by fire? " Hong Yi did not move, nor did he stop her. However, the manuscript of the Book of Changes was not burned when it fell into the fire. Instead, it floated up and the scripture flowed in the fire, burning more and more vigorously.
"This time, I have personally written a copy of the Book of Changes and asked High Duke Li to send it as a gift. It is to be used as a family heirloom of the Hong Family and to safeguard the fortune of the Marquis's Residence." Hong Yi said quietly, "This Book of Changes is more qualified to be a family heirloom than the Taishang Path's Universe and Two Scriptures. Back then, your Two Scriptures of Universe and Two Scriptures conspired so much. Today, I have sent you an even more profound treasure, but you refuse it. You want to burn it. You are destroying your own fortune! "
