Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7119

Chapter 7030: The Shadow of That One!

Jiuding recalled briefly and said, “It was Tower Master Moyu! Back then, he had his eye on a genius from the Divine Ruins Clan named Panyan and went to the site to check on the assessment. But later, Li Tianming rose to power, and Panyan was probably terrified. He insisted on giving up his chance to enter the Heavenly Emperor Sect and following Li Tianming instead. Thus, the name ‘The Only Emperor’ Li Tianming, who later became famous throughout the Heavenly Emperor Sect, came about. Speaking of which, this opportunity was also given by Tower Master Moyu. He decided that the Ascending Heaven Gate would only accept Li Tianming that year.”

“Moyu? It was him?”

Hearing this name, Jiu Siheng stopped worrying and became quite interested.

“What’s wrong, Third Brother? What’s the background of this Tower Master Moyu?” Jiuding frowned slightly and asked in surprise.

“Tsk! Just a defeated opponent, not worth mentioning.” Jiu Siheng said disdainfully, “To be honest, his talent is not bad compared to others, but he was touted as so amazing back then, yet he couldn’t even last three moves against me. Now that I am a top-tier Celestial Venerable, the gap between us is probably even wider.”

“I see, there’s such a story…” Jiu Ding nodded, seemingly lost in thought.

“Let’s not talk about those old stories.” Jiu Yangui frowned and interrupted, “By the way, why didn’t Yuan’er come with you?”

Jiu Ding smiled and said, “She’s probably having a hard time right now. Being the Emperor’s concubine isn’t easy.”

Jiu Yangui was slightly taken aback, then rolled her eyes and scolded, “You men just can’t live without those trivial matters.”

“I wish there were no such trivial matters, but the problem is you won’t let me rest…” Jiu Siheng sighed and spread his hands.

“Then don’t worry about it.” Jiu Yangui rolled her eyes, then smiled and said, “However, it’s a great thing that the Emperor is interested in Yuan’er. It would be best if she could give birth to an heir for the Li imperial family.”

“Third brother and sister-in-law, let’s talk about what to do next.” Jiu Ding said helplessly, “The Emperor hasn’t made any moves yet, but we are practically his personal guards. Should we help him solve his problems?”

Upon hearing this, the two fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time.

Jiu Yangui frowned, her red lips parting slightly as she said, “This is a sensitive time. Without a comprehensive plan, we probably can’t do anything right. If we do something good but end up doing something bad, it would be a loss.”

“Indeed,” Jiu Siheng said coldly. “Huansheng has been executed, and judging from how Li Tianming was able to produce so many corresponding video spheres as evidence, he must be able to hide a large number of video spheres to record our words and actions at any time. So we have to be even more careful.” “

But that means our options are very limited. When will this farce end…” Jiu Yangui sighed softly.

“The conflict between the Emperors should have ended long ago. I don’t know what gives Li Tianming the confidence to resist until now,” Jiu Ding said coldly. “The Emperor’s method of gradual erosion should have been enough to give him a hard time, but somehow it was exposed, and now he’s still making a death throes, disgusting people.”

Jiu Siheng said coldly, “This kid must have someone behind him to be able to comprehend the young Emperor’s method of gradual erosion, and his courage to resist is probably related to that person.”

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly sneered, “I suddenly thought of a way.”

“What way?” Jiu Ding asked, looking blank.

Before he could ask, Jiu Yangui’s eyes lit up, “That’s right! Let that person take action. Anyway, no one knows he’s also in the Emperor’s army.”

Jiu Siheng and Jiu Yangui smiled at each other, both understanding what the other was thinking.

“Third sister-in-law, who exactly are you talking about?” Jiu Ding asked, even more puzzled.

Jiu Siheng and Jiu Yangui smiled slightly and said, “It’s not important. It’s better if no one knows. This way, we can avoid being caught red-handed.”

Jiu Ding, though puzzled, felt that what they said made sense.

“Now we really don’t know where Li Tianming’s spies are. Since Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law have made their plans, I won’t ask any more questions. I wish you a successful plan.” Jiu Ding clasped his hands in greeting.

…

With the intervention of the Heavenly Mandate Army, the pressure from the Heavenly Venerable experts facing the Divine Treasure Clan can be temporarily alleviated, but only to a limited extent.

With the law as the boundary, the two sides are now like two opposing sides of a rushing river.

For now, overall, things have been relatively calm for a while.

Although the three thousand Heavenly Venerables are still exerting pressure, they will not directly take action like Huan Sheng did. Huan Sheng’s death had a warning effect.

They each control a region, using their Heavenly Venerable power to suppress many people, disrupting their normal lives.

Li Tianming, in the Governor’s Mansion, looked at the situation in the entire city, his brows slightly furrowed.

Aurora, standing beside him, said softly, “It seems that executing one of the rule-breakers won’t solve the fundamental problem.”

“It’s already a fight to the death. In such a battlefield, Huan Sheng is merely a dispensable sacrifice. Besides setting the stage for the true confrontation between Little Li and the young Emperor, his role is limited,” An Ning said solemnly.

“The current methods of these Celestial Venerables, while slowly eroding the Emperor’s path, don’t offer me a good solution for now,” Li Tianming said, his gaze deep as he looked across the entire Old Capital. “We have to wait, we have to wait for an opportunity. In this struggle for the Emperor’s path, one wrong step could lead to an abyss. I can proceed slowly, but I absolutely cannot stumble.” He continued to look at the Old Capital, where

most of the Divine Treasure Clan members stood with their gates tightly shut, their hearts filled with unease, sensing an impending storm…

…

One day.

In the central area of the Old Capital stood a massive building, its style vastly different from the surrounding houses.

This place was used for introductory lectures on the Great Dao to children, a long-standing tradition of the Divine Treasure Clan.

Guiding children on the path to enlightenment in this way will bring immeasurable benefits in their future cultivation.

The school was vast, housing at least tens of thousands of children, all attentively listening to a kind-faced old man preaching on the stage.

A group of boys and girls with darker skin tones had hopeful eyes, seemingly forgetting many of their troubles in their learning and cultivation.

The old man, with a benevolent smile, shared his understanding of the Great Dao.

Among the tens of thousands of young Shenzang people below, some listened attentively, while others were distracted.

But regardless, these were the future lifeline of the Shenzang clan, a group that the Shenzang clan was focusing on nurturing.
