Volume 3 The Controversy Between Immortals and Buddhas Chapter 3 The Storm Settles
Although the shares of Our Lady of Yaochi and Emperor Donghua were reduced from 40% to 30%, they still belonged to the entire Heaven Realm, while Queen Tu’s shares only belonged to Zhonghuang Yuzhou. Shadow’s 20% share was only symbolic, and the three emperors valued it more.
is 'intelligence'.
Empress Houtu nodded lightly, said nothing, looked at the two holy fruits in front of her, and asked:
"Where did these two holy fruits come from?"
When the empress asked this question, Wang Bin did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked up at the guards and maids around him. Empress Houtu understood what she meant and said to her left and right:
"You guys go down first!"
Seeing that only Empress Houtu and Wang Bin were left in the huge palace, Wang Bin hurriedly knelt down:
"Back to the Queen, when I joined hands with my humble wife to explore the 'Yinglai Immortal Palace', this holy fruit was obtained from the Immortal Palace, three of each kind. Later, I accidentally activated the mechanism and was transported to a secret place...
····
The opening ceremony of Mingdao City was held the day before yesterday, and all forces in the heavens sent representatives one after another...
The Heavenly Demon Palace directly proposed three conditions to the juniors: tell the murderer of the two Demon Lords of the Heavenly Demon Palace; hand over the artifact; and cede all the Jinyun Mansion and Shadow in Beiju Luzhou. If they don't agree, they will do it in one fell swoop.
Kill all our Mingdao City.
Madam, you have to make the decision for me!"
Looking at Wang Bin who was kneeling and crying below, Empress Houtu pondered slightly and asked:
"So, the 'artifact' refined by the Chenghuang clan was handed over as reward?"
"Go back to your Majesty, this junior didn't even have a single spiritual stone on his body when he came back. The travel expenses for the teleportation array were still taken from the Jinyun Mansion store."
Deliberately avoiding the ownership of ‘Flying Armor’.
"Who took action?"
"Returning to your Majesty, I once swore on my heart that I would never leak it to anyone. I hope that your Majesty will forgive me."
Empress Houtu didn't seem to care about Wang Bin's answer, and asked calmly:
"There are two secret places?"
"Go back to your Majesty, there are two places."
"Tell me about the situation inside!"
"Back to the empress, the first place I entered seems to be a place of sacrifice. The entrance is a crescent-shaped lake and a half-moon-shaped square. The square is covered with the bones of monks from all races. At the end of the square is a gate, and there is also a gate inside.
In the small square, there is a tall wordless stone tablet in the center. At the end are three main halls. In the main hall are nameless tablets. Behind the main hall is a high mountain, and there are everywhere on the high mountain.
They are all tombs; on the top of the mountain is an eight-sided attic, and there is a tall altar in the courtyard; the altar has nine floors, and the "Taiyin True Fire" is burning on it. The other is a circular lake, and next to the lake is a circular square, and there are also
There were corpses all over the place... The 'True Sun Fire' was burning on the altar. However, the 'True Sun Fire' and the 'True Taiyin Fire' from the two secret places were brought out by Ancestor Tianhuang.
"
Empress Houtu was silent for a moment, seeming to be imagining the scene in the secret place:
"Tell me about the situation in 'Immortal Palace'."
"Back to your Majesty, I have not visited all of the Immortal Palace. We entered from the main entrance, inside..."
After listening to Wang Bin's introduction to the situation in the Immortal Palace, Empress Houtu nodded slightly:
“Have you been to the ‘Lingnan Fire Domain’ before?”
"Back to your Majesty, under the instructions of Lord Yan of Baiquan Valley, I and my humble wife have practiced in the Fire Realm for nearly a hundred years. I spent my 'Breaking Immortal Tribulation' in the Fire Realm."
"How many kinds of 'Spiritual Flames' have you conquered now?"
"Returning to your Majesty, I have conquered two types, namely the 'True Sun Fire' and the 'Nirvana Spiritual Fire'."
As he spoke, two flames, one red and one yellow, appeared in his hands.
Empress Houtu looked at the two groups of divine flames and nodded slightly. She looked at the 'Sacred Fruit of the Sun' and the 'Sacred Moon Fruit' on the table, then looked at Wang Bin who was kneeling devoutly below, thinking deeply.
After a moment, he said:
"Get up!"
"Thank you, empress!"
"I can help you with the matters regarding the Heavenly Demon Palace. From now on, you should try to be more restrained within the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Demon Palace."
Hearing what Queen Houtu said, Wang Bin was almost moved to tears. He immediately knelt down and knelt down to worship:
"Juniors and sects thank you for your great kindness!"
"Get up!"
"Thank you, empress!"
"Zhonghuang Yuzhou will do as you just said. As for other continents, I have no intention of getting involved. However, I will send disciples to your 'Shadow' headquarters. Having my disciples here can be regarded as enlightening Daocheng for you.
Provide a guarantee.”
"Thank you for your love, my queen! You have settled in the Shadow Headquarters in Mingdao City. Do you want to participate in the management?"
"how?"
After hearing Empress Houtu's question, Wang Bin immediately knelt down:
"Go back to the Queen! The headquarters handles a lot of information every day. If you participate in the management, I'm afraid it will take a while to adjust. In addition, I will have to ask the Holy Mother of Yaochi and Emperor Donghua for instructions."
"If you don't want to participate, I just want to get first-hand information."
"Thank you, empress! Everything will be done as the empress said."
Empress Houtu nodded, looked at the ‘Sacred Sun Fruit’ and ‘Sacred Moon Fruit’ on the table, and said:
"I can't take so many benefits in vain. Just follow what Yinchuan said, the Sun and Moon Restaurant in the Central Region, Eastern Region, and Northern Region will be merged into your Jinyun Mansion. For the specific details, you can go to the side hall to wait. We will be there soon.
The disciples will connect with you."
"Yes, thank you, ma'am! I will take my leave!"
About an hour later, an old man and a young woman walked into the side hall together. The old man was an old acquaintance: the Yinchuan waiter, Taiyi Sanxian, was responsible for handing over matters at the Sun and Moon Restaurant; the young green-robed woman,
The names are Luhua Fairy and Taiyi Jinxian, and they are the general persons in charge of empress Houtu who are stationed in Mingdao City.
After a brief conversation, Wang Bin left the 'Guan Ming Duan Jing Tian'. After passing through Tiancheng, he went to the 'Tai Chi Meng Yi Tian' and informed the two emperors, the Holy Mother of Yaochi and the Emperor Donghua, about the results of the meeting with Empress Houtu.
.
The first floor of Wanhe Hall in Mingdao City.
Looking at the elite backbones of various ministries who were anxiously waiting, Wang Bin smiled slightly and informed everyone of the results of the talks with the princes, queens, mothers, and empresses. After hearing the final results, the backbones of the group had different expressions, some were happy and some were sad. Overall
Generally speaking, the result is positive. After all, the three emperors personally promised to prevent this crisis.
Wang Bin thought for a while and said to everyone:
"Although the cost is huge, this is the best choice at this stage! After all, what we lack most is time. By introducing the princes, queen mothers, and empresses, I believe that no force will dare to openly threaten us in a short period of time. At least in the
We are safe in Zhonghuang Yuzhou.
What we lack most is time, everyone, please practice hard. If one day there are dozens of immortal cultivators in our Taoist Academy and Mingyue Valley, and even more than a dozen Daluo Immortals, we can ignore any threats."
After a detailed discussion, Chu Yue led a group of shadow backbones, and Liang Yufensheng led a group of Jinyun Mansion backbones. They rushed to Tiancheng at the same time to discuss with the three emperor representatives the takeover of Sun Moon Restaurant, Shadow and other matters.
