Ever since Zhao Yanran obtained this gourd by chance a few years ago, she had been collecting the ingredients out of curiosity for the godly quality of the wine.
Until three months ago, she finally collected all the ingredients needed to brew the Dream of a Thousand Autumns and officially started the brewing process.
After three months, she succeeded. However, even though she was already a Heavenly Transformation Stage powerhouse, she could not withstand the strength of the wine. If not for Lin Xuan's help, she would have been drunk for at least a few months.
After obtaining the gourd of the Dream of a Thousand Autumns, Lin Xuan secretly made up his mind to treat Master Jin to a good drink when he had the chance in the future and let that old fellow have a taste of drunkenness.
After walking out of the bedroom, Lin Xuan came to the door of Yin Xueqiao's alchemy room. However, Yin Xueqiao was at a critical juncture in her alchemy and he did not know how long it would take for her to finish, so he could only leave resentfully.
Before leaving, he left the method of controlling the Luck Devouring Demonic Physique that he obtained from the Hall of Knowledge Seeking for Yin Xueqiao at the door.
After a while, he came to the Political Affairs Hall where Mu Qingxue was.
However, when he found Mu Qingxue, she was in the prison behind the Political Affairs Hall.
Mu Qingxue was surrounded by a group of guards, patrolling the prison.
Looking at the vicious but unrepentant villains in the prison, Mu Qingxue's beautiful face faintly revealed a trace of confusion.
"Hall Master, these fellows are all evil people. They kill the ordinary people in their jurisdiction as they wish, causing the heavens to be angry and resentful. Even killing them ten times is not enough to atone for their sins." A prison guard respectfully stood behind Mu Qingxue.
Mu Qingxue did not comment. Looking at the crowded prison, her beautiful brows slightly furrowed.
In the past six months, she had been in charge of the Political Affairs Hall and had achieved remarkable results. The security of all the cities under the Political Affairs Hall's control had greatly improved, and the economy and people's lives had improved significantly. Compared to before, it was an earth-shattering change.
It was just that martial artists broke the rules with their martial arts, but it did not stop there.
In this world, the numerous mortals were the cornerstone of the Human Race, but they were also the most lowly existences of the Human Race. They lived in poverty, living a precarious life. They worked like cows and horses for martial artists, but they couldn't even guarantee their own lives.
Although Mu Qingxue had formulated many laws to protect mortals, they had little effect. In places where the laws could not control, the lives of mortals were still as cheap as grass. This made her feel sad and helpless.
Even though the people in the Hall of Political Affairs were strictly following the law, in reality, most of them only believed in the law of the jungle, where the strong were respected.
Mu Qingxue walked to the front of one of the cells and looked at an ugly devil cultivator with sinister eyes. She asked the prison guard, "What crime did this person commit?"
The prison guard respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Hall Master, this person massacred more than two thousand people in Three River City in order to cultivate the Demonic Arts."
Mu Qingxue raised her eyebrows and looked coldly at the devil cultivator. She questioned, "Why did you do this?"
The devil cultivator was not afraid at all. He laughed strangely and said, "Kekeke, aren't you asking the obvious? Of course it's for cultivation! "
"With your cultivation, you could have killed ferocious beasts and wild beasts to cultivate. Why did you kill those mortals who had little blood Qi and weak souls?" Mu Qingxue asked coldly.
"Kekeke, My Lord, most of the time I cultivate using the blood Qi of ferocious beasts and wild beasts. I rarely kill people to cultivate.
That day, I was just tired from cultivating and went into the city to look for women to pass the time. Then, I casually killed a few thousand people. That's not a big deal, right? "The devil cultivator laughed strangely without a care.
"Hmph! That's not a big deal? Those few thousand people were also living people with parents and children. But you just casually killed them. Damned devil cultivator! "
Murderous intent flashed in Mu Qingxue's eyes. She raised her hand and waved out a white light. It pierced through the devil cultivator's skull and destroyed his soul.
The rest of the prisoners could not help but jump in fright. They all shrank back into the shadows and looked at Mu Qingxue in fear.
After killing the devil cultivator, Mu Qingxue did not feel the slightest bit of joy. She looked at the prison that was almost filled with prisoners and fell into a deeper confusion.
"Was I wrong?"
Mu Qingxue sighed in disappointment and disappointment. She only felt a wave of exhaustion.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her. "You're not wrong. It's this world that's wrong."
Mu Qingxue's delicate body trembled. She turned around and looked at the familiar face that she had been thinking about day and night. She could not help but be stunned.
Lin Xuan smiled at the beautiful woman. He turned to look at the prisoners and said indifferently, "Actually, we're not wrong. They're not wrong either. It's just that we have different views of the world that's wrong.
In their eyes, the world around them should be like this. They can casually kill the weak and are prepared to be killed by the strong at any time. They enjoy this way of life.
If you don't like this kind of world, you can change them. If you can't, then it's because we're not strong enough. "
Mu Qingxue bitterly said, "Changing them is a hundred times more difficult than killing them."
Lin Xuan said, "The people fear power and not virtue because they lack education. If they were taught not to bully the weak from a young age and to have a kind heart, most of the people here would not have reached this point.
Haven't you already established many academies all over the world?
This is a very good idea.
I believe that if you can strengthen the rule of virtue and education, this world will one day become what you want to see. "
Mu Qingxue's beautiful eyes gradually lit up. She hesitated for a moment and asked hopefully, "You also agree with my way of doing things?"
Lin Xuan warmly smiled, "Of course."
If it was a few months ago, he might still have a reserved attitude towards Mu Qingxue's way of doing things.
But now, as the Sword Master of the Human Sovereign Sword, he was connected to the rise and fall of the human race. Naturally, he had to look at the big picture.
Mu Qingxue had always wanted to create a paradise for mortals in the depths of her heart. She hoped that mortals and martial artists could live in harmony.
If such a world could be realized, it might be beneficial for the development of the human race. Therefore, Lin Xuan was happy to see it.
Of course, he was not naive enough to think that education alone could accomplish this. Furthermore, he did not think that the current Divine Lotus Way could do it.
In order to let the forces under his command develop in a direction that was more beneficial to him in the future, Lin Xuan felt that the Divine Lotus Way needed to change.
A simple sect was not enough to realize his ambitions, nor was it enough to support him to go further.
In his plan, the Divine Lotus Way would be divided into two parts.
One part would be devout believers. After eliminating the influence of the Lotus God, they would return to the Taiyi Way and worship the Taiyi Sage King.
The other part would build an imperial court called the Taiyi Imperial Court.
In the future, the separation of the Taiyi Imperial Court and the Taiyi Way would become two sharp swords in his hands. He would flatten the world and spread his might across the four seas.
Of course, these were only Lin Xuan's ideas. It was not a good time for reform yet.
At the very least, he had to wait until he had swallowed up the Great Undertaking, the Great Xia, the Great Li, and completely devoured the Qiannan region before he could consider these things.
He and Mu Qingxue walked out of the prison. The two of them had changed their appearances and walked side by side on the streets of Greater One City. They were like a pair of lovers shopping, enjoying a rare moment of solitude.
As they walked, Mu Qingxue sold her dreams and ambitions to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan listened with a smile. Occasionally, he would buy some silver hairpins, gold bracelets, and other accessories for Mu Qingxue to wear. This made Mu Qingxue, the popular Lord of the Political Affairs Palace, gradually put down her airs and became more shy and sweet like a girl.
After half a day, the two had strolled around half of Taiyi City, eating, drinking, and having fun. Their interest gradually faded and they returned to the Illusory Demon Orb secret realm.
As for Mu Qingxue, even though Lin Xuan really wanted to bring her back to the room and have a deep conversation with her, but the beauty didn't cooperate. Moreover, she clearly warned him that before they officially got married, she definitely wouldn't let him take advantage of her. This caused Lin Xuan to be very depressed, but there was nothing he could do.
"Lin Xuan, the Mu family has sent people many times to urge me to go back and take over the position of Patriarch. What do you think?" When they parted, Mu Qingxue asked seriously.
Lin Xuan said, "This is a good thing. With the Mu family as your backing, it will be easier for you to do what you want to do in the future.
However, I'm not sure how sincere the Mu family is. You'd better be mentally prepared. "
With that, he stuffed the memory crystal ball that Zhao Tiehu gave him into Mu Qingxue's hand.
Mu Qingxue's mind entered the crystal ball. Gradually, her eyebrows furrowed and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.
"I didn't expect that the highly respected ancestor Zhanfeng of our Mu family would be such a despicable person!" Mu Qingxue said angrily.
Lin Xuan smiled indifferently and said, "You don't need to be angry. We still have to go back to the Mu family. En, wait a few days, I'll accompany you back."
"Good! I'd like to see how they will treat me! "
Mu Qingxue said in a deep voice, then turned and walked back to her courtyard.
The beautiful woman's back gradually disappeared, and Lin Xuan sank into the ground and disappeared.
He first went to the vicinity of the passage to the Demon World that was suppressed by the Chaotic True Gold and found that it had completely turned into a Chaotic Dead Zone. The passage to the Demon World had long been completely destroyed, and the demons who came here before were all dead.
In the center of the Chaotic Dead Zone, the fist-sized cyan metal was quietly buried deep in the endless chaos, still constantly releasing chaotic energy.
Lin Xuan thought for a moment, then summoned the ancient bluestone spear and stabbed it into the edge of the Chaotic Dead Zone. He wanted to see if the Laws of Chaos could fuse with the ancient bluestone spear.
Roar!
A ferocious beast roar sounded. It was the artifact spirit of the ancient bluestone spear, Beast Emperor Long He.
It bared its fangs and brandished its claws, vigilantly guarding its surroundings. While resisting the chaotic energy, it was also trying to do something …
Lin Xuan didn't stay to watch. He turned and left, returning to his personal cultivation room.
This was a space filled with endless origin energy. The ground was covered with countless origin stones that were more than thirty meters thick.
At the edge of this space, spirit veins of origin stones could be faintly seen.
There was no doubt that this was the seventh floor of the Dragon Sealing Pagoda, a space where energy was stored.
In the following time, Lin Xuan planned to stabilize the realm he had broken through not long ago. With the help of the vast origin energy on this floor, he would polish the Golden Body of Manifestation even more.
