This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 971: If you offend the abbot, no one will be happy

Views:

Lu Bei invited Huang Xiao to jointly paint a picture of "Little Yellow Croaker in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters". The original plan was to submit the manuscript within three days, but unexpectedly, the distinguished guest showed up uninvited and the painting was finished halfway through.

I'll leave it for now and continue painting it another day.

Huang Xiao: (=_=)

Lu Bei patted his butt and left, using his five fingers to open up space and summon the guests waiting outside the South Heaven Gate to Daluo Heaven.

Looking at the immortal destiny disk hovering high in the sky, which is now the Heavenly Book, Ji Chang felt complicated and could not utter a word for a long time.

Out of courtesy to his guests, Lu Bei waited for a while, then put his hands behind his back and smiled, "What's wrong, Xiao Ji, do you feel jealous?"

"… "

"You don't need to explain. I understand. Just look at it more and you'll feel better once you get used to it."

"… "

Ji Chang remained silent. He did not care. He was mainly upset for Yinglong, who had worked hard for thousands of years and dreamed of getting something, but by some strange combination of circumstances, it all belonged to Lu Bei.

Fortunately, Yinglong was already dead, so Lu Bei’s smug look could not be seen, otherwise this scene would have been extremely cruel.

"The Emperor has met the Great Celestial Lord."

"That's wrong. You are not the Human Emperor, and I am not the Great Celestial Lord. At most, I am a Celestial Emperor, which is far from the Great Celestial Lord." Lu Bei waved his hands. The term Great Celestial Lord sounded unlucky, so the term Celestial Emperor sounded more pleasant.

Ji Chang nodded, changed his words and called Lu Bei the Heavenly Emperor, took over the topic and continued: "There is the Heavenly Emperor in the Heavens, there is the Ghost Emperor in the Underworld, and there should be a Human Emperor in the world. Chang came here today to ask the Heavenly Emperor for a set of rules for Fengshan, to worship the heavens and offer sacrifices to the earth and achieve the path of the Human Emperor."

"Xiao Ji is thoughtful, but although I am the Emperor of Heaven, theoretically I do not have the authority to interfere in the human world. Did you come to the wrong place?"

"Why would the Heavenly Emperor ask this question when he already knows the answer?"

Ji Chang shook his head slightly. Theory is theory, reality is reality. If he wants to sit on the throne safely, he must get Lu Bei's approval, otherwise his throne will not last long.

Just like the Ghost Emperor Huangquan who makes clouds and rain, Huangquan is his territory if he is obedient. If he does not follow orders, the Emperor of Heaven should consider replacing the person in charge of Huangquan.

Reality is so cruel.

A higher-ranking official can crush people to death. Lu Bei is the Emperor of Heaven, the highest official. The Great Heavenly Lord has not returned yet, so he has the final say on personnel arrangements in the three realms.

Unless your fist is bigger than that of the Emperor of Heaven, like Qi Li Jing, who tells stories all over the world to amuse the Emperor of Heaven, the result is that the Emperor of Heaven turns a blind eye and has no way to deal with it.

"I'm not asking knowingly, but I am the Heavenly Emperor, and I should follow the will of Heaven and the will of the people. The name of the Human Emperor is too complicated to be understood, and I don't want to randomly assign it and take all the consequences on myself."

Lu Bei said with a serious face, "What if a tyrant ruler is chosen, like Tai Su from the Wan Yao Kingdom, and I become a corrupt person, how can I say that I am in line with the will of the people in the future? Xiao Ji, do you think this is the truth?"

Stop acting, the news has spread, you are the first Demon King!

Ji Chang knew what Lu Bei was thinking, so he could only say, "Chang is the emperor of men, and all causes and consequences are in Daxia. Now we just need an imperial edict from the emperor of heaven, that's all."

"There is no edict, only a verbal agreement."

"Can."

"Great kindness."

Seeing Ji Chang's decisiveness, Lu Bei nodded happily and said to the honest man, "Since you are willing to bear the consequences, I will do you a favor, but let me be frank. To rebuild the Great Xia of the human race, you must not start a war and hurt the people. You can chop off as many heads of those dog emperors as you want. The grudges of the upper class are limited to the upper class, and should not affect the innocent people of the lower class."

Ji Chang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, for he was afraid that Lu Beilai would forbid the use of force and rely on benevolent rule to unify the entire human race.

The change is limited to the upper level, which sounds unreasonable. However, under the absolute military oppression of the immortal cultivation world, it becomes reasonable and coincides with his idea.

"You can bleed, but not too much. Xiao Ji, you are a smart emperor and you should know the standard of measurement." Lu Bei reminded again, and then asked Ji Chang about rebuilding Daxia's governing system.

As expected, in Ji Chang's plan, the future Daxia would still be divided into feudal lords and royal families, with the royal families of various countries being reduced to royal families, and collectively paying tribute to Daxia and becoming vassal states.

This was the case in Da Xia ten thousand years ago, and it will be the same ten thousand years later. This is related to the general background of the immortal cultivation world. If the royal family is regarded as an immortal cultivation family, everything will become logical.

"That sounds good, but..."

Lu Bei waved his hand and opened the cloud map of Kyushu Continent in front of him, and remained silent for a long while.

The position of the Emperor of Heaven hasn't even warmed up yet, but the Emperor of Heaven has already grasped his tone very well. It can't be said that he has reached the pinnacle, but it is definitely at the top. Ji Chang feels so angry that he has no place to vent and is quite helpless.

If you want something good, just say it directly. Why are you hesitating and asking people to beg you? Do they ask you three or five times before you reluctantly agree

Once upon a time, at the human race's holy land ceremony, he said nothing and Lu Bei had to smile obediently.

Thinking of Yinglong, Ji Chang immediately stopped being angry. He clasped his hands together and said respectfully, "I don't know what advice the Emperor of Heaven has, but where did Chang fail to consider it?"

"Your Majesty is overthinking. I can't say I can give you any advice. I have some immature suggestions. I wonder if Your Majesty is willing to adopt them?"

"Please correct me, Emperor of Heaven."

"Here, here, and here..."

Lu Bei waved his hand and drew a few circles to mark several private territories. "Although the Lion Country is in the human territory, it actually belongs to the Ten Thousand Demons Country. I hope the Human Emperor will be patient. There is the Western Religion in the Far West, which will become a major trend in the future. I advise the Human Emperor not to be ungrateful. If you offend the abbot, no one will have a good ending."

"Then there are Wu Zhou, Xiong Chu, Xuan Long, and the 23 small countries in the north. I fell into a trap set by a villain in my early years, and was blinded by beauty. I have marriage relations with these three countries. I hope the emperor will give me some face and take care of these three countries."

Hearing that Lu Bei had such a small appetite, Ji Chang was afraid that he would regret it, so he immediately nodded and agreed. After all, he was an old monster who was good at calculating. He hesitated and said in embarrassment: "Chang is stupid, please tell me how to take care of me, how to take care of me?"

"The twenty-three countries in the northern border belong to Wu Zhou, Xiong Chu, and Xuan Long. The three countries can pay tribute to Da Xia, but they don't need to pay tribute. They can keep their country names, and they have the final say on the royal family and internal affairs."

Lu Bei smiled and said, "The Emperor of Man does not need to feel embarrassed. If you feel embarrassed, the Three Kingdoms built the Temple of Heaven, which belongs to the Emperor of Heaven. They only pay tribute to the Emperor of Heaven."

“As it should be!”

Ji Chang said in a solemn voice that some minor flaws would not affect the overall situation, and as long as the human race was nominally unified as Da Xia, it would be within his acceptable range.

The "slight flaw" refers to Xuanlong. Zhao Baimao and he are from the same lineage. Ten thousand years ago, their ancestor was a prince of the royal family of the ancient country of Daxia who was exiled abroad.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Zhao family has inherited white hair from generation to generation. Their ancestors have extraordinary blood, and only they can pollute others, while it is extremely difficult for others to dye them black.

To get back to the point, Xuanlong is a small corner of the country and the people have been poor for generations. Ji Chang doesn't think the Zhao family can threaten him, and now he doesn't have the energy to take care of the Zhao family. He packs up the Zhao family together with Xiong Chu and Wu Zhou and sends them to Lu Bei, which saves him a lot of worries.

He is just a small character, not worth worrying about. Baimao's fate is already determined. He can be the ruler of a country, but he cannot become the emperor of the human race.

Ji Chang had never considered the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom and the Lion Camel Kingdom. They were the territories of two generations of demon kings, and both generations of demon kings were emperors of heaven. A smart person would know what to choose.

As for the Far West...

The third incarnation of Kunlun Immortal repeatedly reiterated that the Western religion would achieve great things in the future and sent one of his incarnations to become a monk. Even if everything went wrong, there would still be a son to settle down.

Ji Chang counted his only six remaining incarnations. His original body, the Human Emperor, could not be touched, his second incarnation, the Jade Emperor, was missing, his third incarnation was bound to the Kunlun Mountains, his fourth incarnation was trapped in the underworld, and his fifth and sixth incarnations were respectively the Lord of Humanity and a Sage. There was a suitable position for each incarnation, but there was not a single one suitable to be a monk.

Logically speaking, Yinglong is dead, Lu Bei has become the Emperor of Heaven, the return to the fairyland is irreversible, and the Jade Emperor II has no place to use his talents, so it is most suitable for him to become a monk.

The second is Jifa, the fourth generation. His plan for the Yellow Springs Road has failed. The first come first served is the cloud and rain. The latecomers can only become tools. There is little point in staying in the Yellow Springs Realm, so he is also suitable to be sent to the Western Church.

As luck would have it, there are two useless incarnations. One traveled through time and space to the future, and the other was detained in the underworld and unable to return to the human world. The rest of the incarnations are closely related to humanity. After counting them, I just can't pick out a suitable one.

Ji Chang knew that the Western religion had great opportunities, but he could only stare blankly. He could only blame his bad luck. He had made too many calculations. The previous people had important interests, and the three bodies that were used to ward off disasters and die in place of death were all lost in Taisu Wujitian.

He looked at Lu Bei in confusion. They were both traveling through a vortex of time and space, so why could Lu Bei's demon body go back to the past and become the invincible first generation Demon King, while his previous life body was still missing

Are you calculating

That's not depressing anymore.

Lu Bei gave Ji Chang a verbal promise, getting some benefits without having to bear any consequences, and happily watched the other party leave.

At the second node of the great changes in heaven and earth, Daxia is about to return, and the world is ushering in new changes.

Good thing!

When a sleepy man meets a pillow, it is just what he wants.

A white light flickered in Lu Bei's eyes as he looked at the List of Gods and the Divine Whip standing quietly in the Immortal Fate Plate. Ignoring the mysterious and unknown Great Celestial Lord, he already had targeted measures against several invincible people in his lifetime.

"The advantage is mine!"

"The Emperor of Heaven has a good opinion!"

Lu Bei waved his hand and planted a flag. He had a great advantage and felt at ease.

He used one hand and fingers to cut open space, summoning Zhu Qilan, Zhao Wuyou and Gu Xinli, the three wings, and informed them that Daxia was about to be rebuilt and Emperor Ji would make a big move.

The three countries of Wu Zhou, Xuan Long and Xiong Chu belonged to him and were nominally vassal states of Da Xia. He asked the three beauties to return to their respective countries and informed their clans to handle the matter properly.

Without any discussion, he directly declared that neither he nor Ji Chang had the ability to resist the Three Kingdoms.

You have to obey even if you don't want to.

The three beauties had complicated expressions, especially Zhu Qilan. The eldest princess had watched Lu Bei grow up, and had long believed that he had the potential to be invincible in this life and would become the second generation Immortal Sword Master after the Qili Sutra.

In the end, the Immortal Sword Master didn't see anything, but saw the first generation Demon King.

It's outrageous!

"What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that, cousin? Am I handsome again?" Lu Bei raised his hand and touched his face, looking a little shy.

The taste is right, it’s definitely a dead ghost.

Zhu Qilan snorted coldly, indicating that the cultivation had reached a critical moment, and asked Lu Bei to hand the task over to that person. Her surname was also Zhu, and she was also the eldest princess. She also had a part in the change of dynasties in Wu Zhou.

She is so sour and has no manners at all. She even has to call you sister!

Lu Bei nodded and agreed, thinking to himself that he would repay today's humiliation a hundredfold one day, and sooner or later let her know the feeling of excessive dehydration.

And the Sutra is abandoned, it's all because of this bastard spreading rumors everywhere.

Zhu Qilan was full of resentment, but Lu Bei didn't blame her. His cousin had always been very sensible. He should blame him for having established the image of a loyal, straight-laced man in his early years. She had been deceived for so long and had been given all kinds of tricks, so it was natural for him to lose his temper.

The camera turned and Zhu Xiushi looked confused. When he learned that he needed to go down to the human world to deliver the message, he immediately became embarrassed.

Zhu Xiushi: Brother, you have crossed the line. Let that person go. She is more qualified than me.

Lu Bei: Give your brother a hand, and we can repay the debt together in the future.

This excuse is reasonable and feasible.

Zhu Xiushi was worried that Lu Bei had no excuse, so when he saw that he had made one up, he was secretly delighted. He tried to refuse again and again, but he had no choice but to agree.

After that came Baimao and Dache. The two diplomats came with a mission. Now Emperor Ji wants to rebuild the glory of the ancient country of Daxia. Xuanlong and Xiongchu can keep the country's name and royal succession rights. All in all, they have completed their mission.

The target was exceeded and Lu Bei achieved far more than expected. They went from being invincible to being the emperor. Even though there was no love between them, this business was profitable.

Besides, how could there be no feelings

If I must find fault, it would be that there is no news from the hostages, let alone sowing seeds, the wasteland has not yet been reclaimed and canals have been dug. I am so worried that my hair has turned white.

"Well, if Emperor Xuanlong asks, just say it's a rumor. I have nothing to do with the First Demon King. Qili Jing just framed me."

Lu Bei first sent Gu Xinli away, and then reminded Zhao Wuyou that he had always had a good impression of Zhao's Baimao, and hoped that the other party would not fall into the instigation of treacherous villains.

Zhao Wuyou sighed, "You are overthinking, Sect Master. During the time of the first generation of the Demon King, the human race did not have Xuan Long. During the time of the second generation of the Demon King, Xuan Long was able to recuperate and recover his vitality. Your Majesty will not think too much about it."

"You are sensible. Come here and give me some perfume."

Twisting and timid.JPG

The three wings returned to their respective countries. The first to come back was Gu Xinli, the current Emperor Xiong Chu, who was also Gu Zongchen's old father. He had no objection to Lu Bei's arrangement.

The next one was Zhao Wuyou. Emperor Zhao Fangce of Xuanlong accepted the fact silently and brought a message to Lu Bei.

The Zhao family originally had the surname Ji.

Lu Bei suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Zhao family was not interested in the Great Xia Holy Land and no wonder Emperor Ji was unhappy with the Zhao family. It turned out to be a problem left over from history.

Bai Mao also had the surname Ji, which was beyond Lu Bei's expectation. He secretly thought it was a pity that this lineage went to a remote place instead of returning to the ancestral land of Daxia to become emperor. Otherwise, Bai Mao's value would skyrocket, and he would be more willing to support Bai Mao to become the emperor of mankind.

Zhu Xiushi left the earliest and came back the latest. The Zhu family once again demonstrated their short-sightedness.

The two princesses of the Zhu family were married to the Emperor of Heaven one after another and were the most favored in all the human countries. Why should they suffer such grievances

After discussing for a long time, they finally swallowed their anger.

You can't blame the Zhu family for being short-sighted. There are too many emperors, and the people who make decisions have different opinions. And they have good reasons to be arrogant. They hold the long legs of the Emperor of Heaven. The first/second generation of demon emperors and the second generation of immortal sword masters are all famous and invincible.

Of course, this did not prevent Lu Bei from continuing to despise the old Zhu family. He even felt superior by clinging to their powerful connections. The Xiongchu ancient family had the leader of the Western religion, the ancestors of the Xuanlong Zhao family were wealthy, so what did the Wu Zhou Zhu family have

What, the eldest princess of the Zhu family has a broad mind

That's no problem. I am deeply loved by the Emperor of Heaven and I have something to be proud of.

While the three wings were delivering the message, Lu Bei was not idle. He sent a jade slip to the human world, informing Jiang Suxin of the changes in the human world and asking her not to fight to the death with Emperor Ji.

We are family, so if you have any problems, let’s sit down and discuss them properly.

Lu Bei did not fight for Zhao Qin's interests, but Jiang Suxin had her own ideas and could fight for them herself.

After that, Lu Bei no longer cared about the changes in the human world. He believed in Ji Chang's brain and fists. The latter had been preparing for many years. There was no reason why he could not unify the entire human race as a person who was able to compete with Yinglong, the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao.

Go back to the quiet room, continue the dual cultivation, and continue the world famous paintings.

Huang Xiao: (=_=)

The camera turned to Lan Xing. Lao Wang finished his official business in a hurry, did not even sleep, and returned home with red eyes.

As expected, his daughter was addicted to virtual games. She would get enough sleep during the day and play games hard at night. He would get off work just in time for his daughter to go to work.

Lao Wang is a code name, his real name is Zhuang Wu, he was born in the army, he was brave and brave when he was young, he would not leave the front line even with minor injuries, he was famous for his toughness, what is commonly known as a strong man.

Such a strong man is naturally the focus wherever he goes. The encounter between him and his wife Tao Ying can be summarized in two words - car accident.

That year, Tao Ying had just graduated from college. The rich second-generation got his first new car. He chose a road with few people to practice driving. He found a strong man jogging in front of him. Out of curiosity, he went closer to take a look.

With a bang, they collided.

Zhuang Wu: Nonsense, you’re so close, how can you not bump into me

After a romance between a city soldier and a rich lady, the two stepped into the grave of love without hesitation and gave birth to their baby daughter Zhuang Xuan.

They have a happy family, a well-behaved and pretty daughter, a loving couple, and both are on the rise in their careers. They feel that their lives have reached their peak.

A bolt from the blue struck.

When Zhuang Xuan was young, she had a high fever. Her parents were busy with official duties and could not spend enough time with her. Later they learned that Zhuang Xuan did not have an ordinary fever, but a neurological disease caused by polio virus infection.

Common name: polio.

Zhuang Xuan's symptoms were quite serious and she was paralyzed in bed for a long time. Although her family was not short of money and her symptoms improved to a certain extent, she still suffered from the sequelae of bent and deformed legs.

It is impossible to walk normally and I need the help of tools such as a wheelchair.

When I was little, I envied the freedom of other children, who could go wherever they wanted. But when I grew up...

I can only say that her family education is still good. She is not depressed, but just became a stay-at-home girl, spending all day playing virtual games, pursuing the freedom of running.

Snap!

Zhuang Wu opened the game cabin, looked at his daughter in pajamas, grinning happily, and raised his hand to knock on her helmet.

"Who is coming?"

"Your father."

"Waiting for trial!"

"… "

The debts he incurred in his early years made it difficult for Zhuang Wu to speak with confidence in front of his daughter. He stood aside waiting for his fate and lit a cigarette by the window.

In the garden, a pair of round eyes lit up, and Heiyun stepped on the snow and jumped onto the wall onto the small balcony on the second floor, staring straight at the strange head of the family.

The two looked at each other, and Zhuang Wu frowned. He took a step back silently, glancing at the green plants in the house.

It's bare, like leeks that have been cut again and again.

Thinking about his daughter's level in the game and the observation target in the file, Zhuang Wu concluded that the silly cat in front of him already had a remarkable intelligence.

If it is brave enough, it can understand human language.

For a moment, Zhuang Wu's scalp went numb.

"Daidai, come here."

Hearing his daughter's voice, Zhuang Wu put out his cigarette and was about to say something when he saw his daughter waving at the silly cat. The latter, wearing white gloves and walking on each of its four legs, came over with a pace that showed no regard for any relative.

The reason why the silly cat is called Daidai is that as a cat, it can't even walk like a cat.

Because of this, he is loved by Zhuang Xuan.

“Meow~~~~”

Daidai jumped onto the wheelchair, stood on Zhuang Xuan's legs, rubbed them, stepped on them, and then lay down on the spot.

Only those eyes were staring straight at Zhuang Wu.

Zhuang Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was much better than those observation targets who looked at their masters with cold eyes.

"Boss, you got off work very early today. I am honored to have you visit my humble home. It is a great honor for me."

Zhuang Xuan said something sarcastically, and then said, "Tell me, which old Chinese doctor made a decision that went against his ancestors and refused to treat the royal family and relatives, but instead treated your daughter?"

"No, I won't get an injection or take any medicine today. I just came here to see you."

"Thank you for coming home to see me."

"It's my duty, it's my duty." Zhuang Wu smiled twice and lowered his 1.80-meter-tall back to 1.20 meters.

Seeing his sincere attitude, Zhuang Xuan was speechless: "Go home after you finish reading. I know you are all busy. I have an appointment with friends and something important to do tonight. Don't delay me."

"Is it the game [Jiuzhou Continent]?"

"Hey, an old antique like you actually knows about virtual games?"

It's not virtual at all!

"I also have an account in the game and have played it for a while."

Zhuang Wu opened his mouth, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words and said, "How are you doing? What level are you at? Have you found a master?"

"No way, you play virtual games?"

Zhuang Xuan was skeptical: "It's OK, he can run and jump, and he has learned to fly."

"… "

There's no point in talking about this!

Zhuang Wu retreated to the window, took out a cigarette, and snapped...

“No smoking area.”

Zhuang Wu put away the lighter with a snap, and after a long pause, he said, "Your game ID is Xiao Fengxian, and you worship an NPC named Lu Bei. He is invincible, right?"

"You know all this, you are not investigating me, are you?"

Zhuang Xuan looked suspiciously, "What's going on? Which doctor gave us this advice? We can't even play games anymore?"

"No, it's just..."

Zhuang Wu took two steps forward and said with a wry smile, "Is it possible that the NPCs really exist, your master Lu Bei is a living person, and the Kyushu Continent also really exists?"

"Ah, this..."

Zhuang Xuan was dumbfounded: "I believe you. You have really been playing virtual games recently. Listen to the doctor's advice. You are seriously ill and can't distinguish between reality and virtuality. You should quit the Internet."

After saying this, it’s just a laugh.

Although the old father acted silly today, he did make her laugh.

The cheap master is flesh and blood, not just a string of cold digital codes. It's so funny, how can it be real

"I'm not talking nonsense. I've been following this game for a year. You logged into the real world of immortal cultivation. It invaded Blue Star through you and other players."

"What?"

"Meow?"
