Riding on the Imperial Observatory's star ship, they traveled day and night to the capital of the Great Zhou. The director Li Tianxing only had time to change his clothes before hurriedly heading to the imperial city to meet the emperor.
In the side hall, Emperor Kong Yan had just climbed out of the bed, but he did not look angry. He knew that Li Tianxing's request to see him so late at night must be for something extremely important, and he felt that there could be no delay, otherwise he would not have waited until dawn.
Twenty years have passed, Kong Yan has aged a lot and looks very old. After all, he is approaching the end of his life. The life span of mortals is two hundred years. Without breaking through to the realm of immortality or having elixirs, even the emperor cannot escape the cycle of life and death.
"Your Majesty, I am here to see you!"
"Why do you have to come to see me so late at night? But what happened..."
As soon as Emperor Kong Yan finished speaking, he saw Li Tianxing's appearance and was immediately shocked: "Why do you look like this, my dear?"
Li Tianxing now looked as old as an eighty-year-old man. He no longer had the same immortal temperament as before. His face was pale, and it seemed that he might gasp and fall to the ground at any time.
You must know that Li Tianxing is at the peak of the Possession Realm and may enter the Tribulation Crossing Stage at any time.
Li Tianxing did not talk about his own affairs, but directly changed the topic to the main business: "Your Majesty! I have lived up to your trust and finally found the person with the Purple Star Fate."
As soon as the words came out, the emperor was stunned for a long time, and then he helped Li Tianxing up without caring about his own imperial dignity: "Are you telling the truth? The evil star has finally appeared in the world?"
Li Tianxing nodded and said, "I am 80% to 90% sure that I have found the reincarnation of the Purple Star. Yesterday, I searched the world with the help of the Great Zhou Dragon Vein and the Nine Heavens and Ten Directions Formation at the Imperial Mausoleum, and finally found the trace of the person who devoured the dragon energy of the Great Zhou."
“Only the Purple Star can intercept the dragon energy destiny of the Great Zhou Dynasty as soon as it descends to the world, so this humble minister rushed back to Kyoto to pay homage to Your Majesty. I want Your Majesty to immediately order the person with the Purple Star destiny to be brought back. If you are a step late, this humble minister is afraid that something unexpected will happen!”
Emperor Kong Yan nodded, "That's right! This is extremely urgent and we cannot afford to make any mistakes. I will immediately assign the Imperial Guards and Shadow Guards to you, and allow the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to bring out the Ten Directions Divine Mirror. You will be in charge of this matter and must bring back this person with the Purple Star Fate."
Emperor Kong Yan was anxious but also a little happy. He had searched all the provinces and counties in the Great Zhou Dynasty for more than ten years but had not been able to find the person with the Purple Star destiny. Today he finally got a clear clue.
If he really brought back the person with the Purple Star destiny, it would mean that the plan that Li Tianxing had told him before, which was for Great Zhou to avoid the Star God's killing calamity, could be truly tried out. If successful, he might be able to seize the destiny of this person with the Purple Star destiny and complete the Star God's killing calamity on his behalf.
The old Emperor Kong Yan's face was burning, but he calmed down in an instant, showing a fierce look: "Even if I can't bring him back, I must get rid of him."
The Imperial Guards are the emperor's personal troops, and the Shadow Guards are the hidden power of the Great Zhou. Both are led by martial arts immortals, and are the last trump card and strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
With the addition of Supervisor Li Tianxing, and the Ten Directions Divine Mirror that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Imperial Observatory and has almost been refined into a magical weapon, there is really a chance that they can kill the Ziwei Star Lord who has not yet awakened his star destiny.
If an accident occurs and the person cannot be brought back, if someone with the Ziwei star destiny can kill him, the killing can be delayed.
Marquis Wuwei suddenly raised the banner of rebellion and brought forward the killing spree, which not only caught everyone off guard, but also left the Great Zhou Dynasty completely unprepared. Many of the original secret plans had not yet been deployed, and the eight northern counties were lost. The situation suddenly became bad.
If the battle could be delayed a little longer, the new army would be reorganized and the five counties of Panzhou would be recovered, forcing back the Rong people who invaded Shenzhou. With the new army firmly under the control of Emperor Kong Yan, the situation would be completely different.
Thinking of this, Emperor Kong Yan finally asked: "By the way, where was this demon star born after reincarnating into the lower world? Who is he?"
Li Tianxing: "I saw him born in Siqiong Mountain in Zhengzhou, and now he is in the spiritual realm of the ancient Xuanyuan clan."
At the foot of Siqiong Mountain, Shanyin County of Zhengzhou is located on the northwest border of the Great Zhou Dynasty and can be considered an extremely remote place.
The former Xuanyuan Kingdom had long since disappeared in the ancient times. The Xuanyuan clan, who considered themselves to be a clan of ancient gods, had also gradually withered away with the demise of Dapan and the death of the ancestor god Xuanyuan, and were no longer as glorious as before.
After hundreds of years of suppression by the Great Zhou Dynasty and the revenge and exclusion by the major sects that were once severely damaged by the ancestor god Xuanyuan in the underworld, the Xuanyuan family seemed to be a lonely branch in the world, belonging to neither the Taoist sect nor the demon clan, and it did not have the momentum of the crazy development of the emerging demon sects.
More and more people of the Xuanyuan clan walked out of the spiritual realm of Mount Siqiong and integrated with the human race. Over thousands of years, most people in Shanyin County, including those in the nearby villages, had the blood of the Xuanyuan clan, but they no longer regarded themselves as descendants of gods, but called themselves human beings. Most of them had long forgotten their former glory.
They established villages and towns in Shanyin County and lived like human beings. They no longer used the surname Xuanyuan, but changed their surnames to Ji, Si, Xuan, Tang, etc. They gave up their past customs and no longer possessed the symbol of being descendants of gods like a snake's tail. Some of them even entered the Great Zhou Dynasty as officials, and some became military generals.
Only the remaining part of the Xuanyuan clan within the spiritual realm of Mount Siqiong clings to its past glory and refuses to forget it, always thinking that one day it will be able to rise again.
Inside the Xuanyuan Clan Ancestral Temple, the magnificent temple carries the heritage of thousands of years. The bright red wood supports each other, and the ancient architectural structure carries an aura of sacredness and vicissitudes.
The high priestess of the Xuanyuan clan this generation is a middle-aged beautiful woman who has not even reached the realm of immortality. Slight wrinkles can be seen at the corners of her eyes, which is enough to tell how low the Xuanyuan clan has fallen.
A young man followed behind him. The high priest of Xuanyuan's generation took him to walk inside the ancestral temple. They looked at the statues and tablets of generations of high priests. The grand temple had layer upon layer. When they reached the innermost part, the tablets of generations of dead sacrifices and high priests seemed to occupy the entire temple, which was amazing.
It also represents the history of the Xuanyuan clan, which is even older than that of the human race. Only the Taoist traditions passed down by the mighty ones who walked on the earth in the ancient times can compete with the Xuanyuan clan in terms of foundation, but they do not have the vicissitudes and heaviness of the Xuanyuan clan.
The high priest looked at the young man and introduced him the legend of Xuanyuan clan bit by bit, the names and stories of the high priests of Xuanyuan clan from generation to generation. The young man listened quietly. Just standing there, it was as if he had returned to thousands of years ago in an instant.
"In the ancient wilderness, there was a battle at Longqiu. If it weren't for the conspiracy and trickery of Emperor Longqiu, my Xuanyuan clan would be the master of Dongzhou today."
"The Tai Sui Star Palace fell into the underworld, and cultivators from all over the world went down to the world to fight for it. I, Xuanyuan Ancestor God, transformed into an immortal body of gods and demons to dominate the world. If it weren't for the attack from the back by the Blood God Boy, I would have ascended to the position of Tai Sui Star Lord by now."
"During the Dapan Dynasty, my Xuanyuan clan's high priest Xuanyuan Chi was about to succeed in his plan to seize the throne of the emperor, but it happened that the King of Hell was born and the Yangjing Demon Tribulation occurred."
The high priest knelt before the statue of the ancestral god, covered his face and wept, and said angrily: "How biased God is, not blessing us Xuanyuan clan!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the young man with tears in his eyes: "Ji Chongming! Do you understand? You are our last hope."
