The dark clouds in the sky had already dispersed, and it was once again a sunny day.
However, the haze in Lin Xuan's heart did not dissipate for a long time.
Under the heavens' might, he once again felt his insignificance.
"Teacher, what kind of world is this?" Lin Xuan looked at the sky and asked.
Mu Jianfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Although this old man is called a powerhouse by others, in reality, how can a Heavenly Transformation Realm cultivator be considered a powerhouse? The higher one climbs, the more one feels their insignificance and ignorance, and the more one feels the vastness and mysteriousness of this world.
Unfortunately, this old man's talent is limited, and I'm afraid I won't be able to truly reach the top and uncover the great secrets of this world. "
Lin Xuan asked, "Then teacher, do you know who has reached the top since ancient times?"
"In our human race, I'm afraid only the Demon Sovereign and the Human Emperor can be called supreme."
Mu Jianfeng's face was filled with fascination, but he continued, "However, as the saying goes, there's always someone better. Although the Demon Sovereign and the Human Emperor were once the supreme beings of this world, the world beyond the heavens is vast and boundless. Who knows what kind of existence the supreme beings of this vast universe are?"
"Demon Sovereign? Human Emperor? Teacher, how did these two Supreme-Being experts die? "Lin Xuan suddenly asked.
"Die?"
Mu Jianfeng was stunned, and couldn't help but laugh, "Who told you they died?"
Lin Xuan opened his mouth wide in shock, "They didn't die? Teacher, are you kidding me? The Demon Sovereign is a figure from the ancient era, no less than a million years ago. The Human Emperor is also a supreme being from the ancient era, born hundreds of thousands of years ago. You're actually telling me they're still alive? "
Mu Jianfeng shook his head, "Whether they're still alive or not, I'm afraid no one can say for sure.
However, not being alive doesn't necessarily mean they're dead.
Otherwise, what's with the Human Emperor Tablet? Where did the heavenly punishment come from?
That kind of existence is not something insignificant people like us can fathom. "
"Alright."
Lin Xuan was speechless for a while.
However, he actually understood what his teacher was trying to say. He didn't know much about the Human Emperor.
However, he had a deep understanding of the Demon Sovereign.
Perhaps, the mere existence of a sliver of will did not mean true death.
Lin Xuan shook his head. Those supreme beings of the world were too far away from him. They were so far away that he didn't even have the qualifications to hear their names. It was better for him to be down-to-earth and take one step at a time.
Perhaps one day, when he stood at the peak of this world, he would have the opportunity to sit down with such existences to have a cup of tea and chat about cultivation experiences.
Lin Xuan composed himself and asked, "Teacher, what do you plan to do next?"
"Hmm?" Mu Jianfeng was stunned for a moment, then sighed self-deprecatingly. "When I came to the Northern Wilderness, I planned to sacrifice my old life and contribute to the war. But now, it seems that I'm a bit of an eyesore."
He had been in the Heavenly Tripod City for more than 20 days, but neither the Qin King's Mansion nor the Heavenly Tripod City's military seemed to have noticed him. They treated him like he was invisible.
This undoubtedly showed that the people in power in the Heavenly Cauldron City were very wary of him and didn't want him to interfere in the war and get involved in military power.
Although he had a high and mighty military position as the Divine General of the Pillar of the Nation, he didn't have any concrete power, nor did he have any orders from the imperial court.
If no one invited him, he indeed had no reason to participate in the war in a local city.
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "Teacher, there's no need to belittle yourself. Those people are short-sighted and can't be plotted against. But if you want to contribute to the war, how many ways are there? If Teacher doesn't mind, why don't you come to my Magic Lotus Sect and become an elder?
To be honest, your disciple's cultivation level is low now. Facing the Magic Lotus Sect, which is in a state of disunity, I really don't have the strength to do anything. I hope that Teacher can lend your disciple a hand.
If we can integrate the Magic Lotus Sect, we will have both manpower and money under our command. We will definitely be able to play a greater role in the war against the Dragons clan. "
"Oh?"
Mu Jianfeng glanced at Lin Xuan from the corner of his eyes and laughed unhappily. "I knew that you wouldn't come to the temple for no reason. You actually schemed against me."
"Hehe, Teacher, look at what you're saying! Your disciple is also worried about the war and the great cause of the Magic Lotus Sect. Unfortunately, my strength doesn't match my desire, so I can only ask Teacher for help. "Lin Xuan smiled shamelessly.
Mu Jianfeng frowned and thought for a moment. He then smiled strangely and said, "It's not impossible for this old man to risk his life for you. However, this old man has a condition."
Lin Xuan was overjoyed. "Teacher, you agree? That's great! Teacher, feel free to state your conditions. This disciple will do anything to comply! "
He originally only wanted to give it a try. After all, Mu Jianfeng was a high-ranking military general of the imperial court. His rank was several ranks higher than the general of the Heavenly Cauldron Army. Coming to the Magic Lotus Sect to be an elder was really condescending.
But he didn't expect the old man to actually agree. This was simply an unexpected surprise!
Mu Jianfeng smiled and said, "This old man's condition is very simple. Choose one of my two precious granddaughters and marry her!"
"What?"
Lin Xuan was stunned. He opened his mouth wide in shock.
"What? You're not willing? This old man's two granddaughters are not only as beautiful as flowers, but also extremely talented. They can be said to be phoenixes among men. Could it be that you don't fancy them? "Mu Jianfeng frowned.
Lin Xuan's eyelids twitched. He quickly said, "No, no! It's just that, it's just that I'm your student. It's not very appropriate for me to marry your two nieces, right? "
"Hmph, that's easy! From now on, you're no longer this old man's student. "Mu Jianfeng sneered.
Huh? You're kicking me out just like that?
Lin Xuan felt a toothache.
To be honest, he wasn't against marrying Mu Qingxue. As for Mu Qingning, forget about it. That woman couldn't be considered a woman at all.
However, he had many women by his side. If this old man forced him to cut ties with other women, this humble concubine wouldn't be able to do it!
Mu Jianfeng seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He lightly snorted, "Don't worry. It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. This old man doesn't care how many women you have, but you must officially marry this old man's granddaughter. Moreover, you must treat her well! If you can't do that, then you can just stay where you want to be! "
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. This old man was giving him the green light. If he didn't agree, then he would be unreasonable.
He quickly said, "Yes, Master. This disciple agrees."
"Hmph, at least you're tactful. Then who do you plan on marrying?" Mu Jianfeng lazily asked.
"Of course I'm marrying Qingxue."
"Alright. Remember to send me the letter of appointment within three days. "Mu Jianfeng nodded in satisfaction. His old eyes faintly flashed with a trace of a smile.
Huh?
Lin Xuan's face darkened. Wasn't this too rushed? Why did this young master feel like he was tricked?
But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out where the problem was. It seemed like he really didn't lose out!
"Master, isn't three days too rushed?" He probed.
"It's only the letter of appointment. The marriage can be arranged later."
"Alright." Lin Xuan could only nod. Three days it was.
