#2696 - Very reasonable?

Jun Wuxie's gaze fell upon the scene displayed on the light screen in the sky.

Inside was a beautiful landscape of mountains and rivers.

Amidst that landscape, upon a mountain peak, stood a woman.

She had a slender figure, graceful and charming, with a cascade of raven hair flowing down to her waist, each strand shimmering with light.

The woman wore a light彩 dress, its sleeves fluttering gently, and her dark hair danced lightly in the wind, her body radiating a seven-colored glaze.

Without even seeing her face, her temperament and figure alone were enough to call her perfect.

Her skin was snow-white, like congealed fat, as smooth as jade, her features exquisite and flawless, the lines of her face extremely soft and feminine, yet her demeanor carried a hint of heroic spirit.

This was Liuli, a woman with a gentle and beautiful face, full of femininity, yet possessing a heroic and valiant spirit.

The fusion of her soft facial features and her heroic spirit gave her a unique beauty.

As the princess of a forbidden zone, with the blood of the divine phoenix flowing through her veins, her heroic spirit was tinged with an innate sense of nobility and mystery, further enhancing her charm.

"Is she beautiful?"

The Phoenix Empress wore a beaming smile, clearly quite confident in her daughter's appearance, figure, and temperament.

Although her appearance might be slightly inferior to some of the imperial consorts around Wuxie, she was definitely not weaker than the other imperial consorts.

"A beauty of unparalleled grace, a figure capable of toppling cities, naturally she is beautiful."

Of course, Jun Wuxie would not say anything insincere like 'not beautiful'.

"Then do you like her?"

The smile on the Phoenix Empress's face grew even brighter.

"This… it still depends on fate.

When Liuli and I meet in the future, let everything take its natural course."

"You little brat, just keep playing hard to get."

Tian Jianyi was so angry that he blew his beard.

Such an outstanding daughter, only to be one of his many consorts, and this kid was still being coy, refusing to give a straight answer, acting as if he was suffering some great injustice.

"Alright, don't blame Wuxie.

What he said is actually correct, it's a sign of responsibility.

After all, he hasn't actually met Liuli in reality, and he doesn't understand her.

I believe they will eventually come together, as long as Wuxie doesn't reject her in his heart."

"It's still Ancestral Matriarch who speaks reasonably, unlike Ancestor, who only wants to arrange a marriage.

That's feudal thinking from the Immortal Ancient era."

"I'm feudal?"

Tian Jianyi was furious, "We wholeheartedly want to marry our precious daughter to you as a consort, and you actually say we're feudal, as if you're suffering a great loss?"

"Ancestral Matriarch, look at Ancestor, he's being unreasonable again.

He's supposed to be a Heavenly Emperor, how can his emotional fluctuations be so great, like a vulgar old man from the marketplace?"

The Phoenix Empress covered her mouth and giggled upon hearing this.

"Alright, alright, I'm a vulgar old man! What about it?" Tian Jianyi snorted, "Anyway, it's settled, if you don't take Liuli as a consort, Ancestor will… will…"

He hesitated for a long time, then looked at the Phoenix Empress, "I'll make your Ancestral Matriarch cry for you to see!"

"What? My heavens…"

Jun Wuxie supported his forehead with his hand, defeated by him.

This was acceptable?

Perfectly reasonable?

He was threatening, but he dragged the Ancestral Matriarch into it, making it ridiculously reasonable!

"That's not good, Ancestor, how can you drag Ancestral Matriarch into this, and even make her cry for me to see, didn't you ask Ancestral Matriarch's opinion?

How about this, Ancestor, you cry for me to see, if you cry once, I'll call you Father-in-law once, how about that?"

"You little brat!"

Tian Jianyi made a gesture to give him a flick on the forehead, but Jun Wuxie dodged it and burst into laughter.

"At least in this life, I'm your Ancestor, and in the future, I'll be your Father-in-law, and you're slandering me like this?

You don't understand respecting your elders at all."

Tian Jianyi blew his beard and glared, but in his heart, he wasn't really angry at all, instead, he quite liked this kind of atmosphere.

The more it was like this, the more he felt that Wuxie was close to him.

Otherwise, thinking about his identity in the previous life, he always felt a bit of estrangement and awe.

…

Jun Wuxie stayed in this pavilion behind the mountain for several days.

During these days, he had been discussing various matters with Ancestor and Ancestral Matriarch.

Midway, the Lord of the Underworld Ruins and the Dragon Lord arrived one after another.

The Dragon Lord even took out his own biography, which was full of stories about Jun Wuxie's perspective.

These stories were not fictional, they were his life's growth experiences.

Jun Wuxie flipped through it, looking stunned, saying that if the Dragon Lord didn't want to be the Lord of the Forbidden Zone in the future, he could completely go write novels, he would definitely be loved by the world.

Tian Jianyi, the Phoenix Empress, and the Lord of the Underworld Ruins all laughed, and the Dragon Lord also laughed.

Another two days passed like this.

The heads of the major forces reported that they were ready and could go to the God Ancient at any time.

The Xuanjia Army's major legions were also ready.

The disciples of the sect who were outside had all returned.

It was time to leave the Lower Realm and return to the God Ancient.

"Lord Jun…"

Just as he was about to leave the pavilion, the Lord of the Underworld Ruins hesitated, and the Dragon Lord also seemed to have something to say.

"You guys can really hold back, you only want to say it when I'm about to leave."

"Does Lord Jun know what we want to say?"

The Lord of the Underworld Ruins and the Dragon Lord couldn't help but be stunned.

"Of course, confusion in cultivation, right?

For this matter, you should look for my Ancestor.

I have already shared my insights and experiences with Ancestor and Ancestral Matriarch, let them share them with you."

…

Jun Wuxie left and came to the sect's plaza.

It was already full of people.

The sect's millions of disciples were divided into two groups.

With the Constant God Realm as the boundary, those below the Constant God Realm were in one group, and those above the Constant God Realm were in another group.

The disciples of the Zhuxian Sword Sect, each with fiery eyes, were full of anticipation.

The Sect Master had returned, summoning everyone to go to the God Ancient to fight the dark creatures on the battlefield!

Killing dark creatures was an supreme honor, the honor of the predecessors of that year, and also the honor that some senior brothers had once possessed!

Most of them were not born in that era, and had not experienced the torrent of the apocalypse.

But they had all grown up reading the history of the torrent of the apocalypse, the thick history books, with too much tragedy, but also too much boiling blood.

Now, they also had the opportunity to experience such glorious things, even if they were stained with blood on the battlefield, they would have no regrets!

However, to the disappointment of many disciples, the Sect Master only chose the senior brothers and sisters above the Constant God Realm.

Those below the Constant God Realm were ordered by the Sect Master to stay in the sect and cultivate well.

Then, the Sect Master gave them lectures and imparted knowledge, raising their understanding of the Dao by several levels, benefiting them greatly.

"I know your feelings, I know you are very disappointed.

Being able to enter my Zhuxian Sword Sect means that you are all outstandingly talented people.

With your talents, you should cultivate well.

Below the Constant God Realm, if you go to the dark battlefield, the chances of dying in battle are very high.

After all, the disciples of my Zhuxian Sword Sect must be pioneers when facing darkness, rushing to the front!

Although, if you die in battle, I will also have a way to reunite your souls, revive you, and reshape your bodies.

But this process takes a long time, which is detrimental to your growth.

Cultivate well, I hope that in the future, in the torrent of the apocalypse in the Primal Chaos Great World, you will be qualified to go to the battlefield to sweep away the dark creatures!"

"Sect Master, we will definitely cultivate well and live up to your expectations!"

"Sect Master, you and the senior brothers and sisters must take care!"

The eyes of the disciples turned red, the dark battlefield was very cruel.

Although they had not experienced it, it could be seen from the historical records, as well as the cruel battle scenes of that year.

They were not afraid of darkness, they had a heart full of boiling blood, but they were worried about the senior brothers and sisters.

This time, some senior brothers and sisters would inevitably sacrifice.

The sect, for them, was a warm family.

Within the sect, there was no such thing as fellow disciples bullying each other, never.

The relationship between fellow disciples was quite good, taking care of each other, helping each other.

Everyone had a deep sense of belonging to the sect and the imperial dynasty, and treated each other like family.

"Look at you, how old are you, still shedding tears.

You just wait for our triumphant return in the sect!

When the time comes, the senior brothers and sisters will bring back the heads of some dark powerhouses to make wine cups for you, hahaha!"

The disciples above the Constant God Realm laughed.

With their words, some disciples couldn't help but wipe away their tears.

This time, they might not be able to see some senior brothers and sisters for a very long time.

"Alright, alright, let's all disperse, go cultivate quickly, what's with all the crying and sobbing, it's like sending off a funeral."

"Oh, senior brother, why are you saying such unlucky things, quickly spit it out!"

Many female disciples said anxiously.

"Alright, alright, spit it out, spit it out, is that okay?

We are going to send off the dark creatures that invaded the God Ancient.

Junior brothers and sisters, let's all disperse, don't worry about us!

Fighting the darkness again, we have been waiting for this day for many years, we will definitely return full of glory!"

…

Jun Wuxie looked at the deep affection between the sect's disciples, and was very gratified in his heart.

In this world, there were not many sects that could have disciples as united and loving as the Zhuxian Sword Sect, treating each other like family.

He left here and went to the gathering place of the various forces and armies in the Lower Realm, leaving a space for the sect's disciples to say goodbye.

On the central square of the imperial city, people from all forces had already gathered.

The square was very large, but its area was far from enough to accommodate the powerhouses from the various life ancient stars.

However, in the middle of the square, there was a space barrier, inside which there was a vast world, where everyone was gathered.

Inside, the vast land, countless people, from various races, stretched as far as the eye could see.

The number was at least in the trillions.

After all, it had gathered people selected from the various major forces of so many life ancient stars in the entire Lower Realm.

The Lower Realm was no longer what it used to be. In the past ten thousand years, the population of all races and creatures had exploded.

The number of creatures in the Lower Realm was hundreds, even thousands, of times greater than during the primordial flood!

The number gathered here was only a small fraction selected from the major forces.

After all, not everyone was qualified to go to the battlefield against the darkness.

The people selected by the major forces were only the strongest and some outstanding talents.

Before they came, they had all made arrangements for their affairs.

Each of them was prepared to die.

Although they believed that Lord Divine would surely wipe out the dark creatures invading the Godly Ancient Grounds,

in this process, countless people would inevitably bleed and sacrifice themselves, falling on the battlefield against the darkness.

The Dark War was extremely cruel, and many of the powerhouses from the major forces had personally experienced it.

And the Dark Invasion of the Godly Ancient Grounds would be far more violent than that of the Lower Realm.

The scale of the primordial flood in the Upper Realm was much larger than that of the Lower Realm, and the Godly Ancient Grounds was even more so.

Was death scary?

Of course, it was!

No one wanted to die!

But if it was to fight against the darkness, what was there to fear from death?

If the darkness was not wiped out, it would eventually corrode the Lower Realm.

The brilliant and prosperous era bought with the sacrifices of countless people would once again face the crisis of annihilation.

Their families, relatives, and descendants would all fall in pools of blood!

They only hoped that their generation could follow Lord Divine to fight all the wars against the darkness, so that their descendants would no longer need to go to the battlefield to fight the dark and bloody battles.

They did not want their future generations to experience the cruelty of blood and bones.

"Everyone, it has been nearly ten thousand years since the darkness in our realm was pacified.

These ten thousand years have been peaceful and prosperous.

But now, I must once again lead you to fight against the darkness, and once again lead you back to that cruel and bloody battlefield.

The prosperous era that I promised you is not eternal, at least not yet.

Those existing threats have not yet been eliminated.

Even the darkness eliminated by the Upper and Lower Realms back then was only the tip of the iceberg of the entire Dark Heavens."

"Lord Divine, we know that we are far from the time to enjoy comfort.

Since you quelled the primordial flood, our families and sects have flourished and reached a peak that we never dared to dream of.

We all cherish this prosperous era and this kind of life.

But the darkness has not been extinguished, and they are still trying to devour other worlds in the Bright Universe.

Our Lower Realm cannot stand alone. To achieve a truly eternal prosperous era, we must fight!

No matter how terrible the darkness is, we will follow Lord Divine unswervingly, even if we are crushed to pieces and our flesh becomes mud, we will not hesitate!

Lord Divine's will is where our hearts lie!

We swear to follow Lord Divine to the death, to fight for a peaceful and prosperous world, and a bright future!"

For a time, creatures of all races shouted enthusiastically, and the sound shook the world in the inner space, and the momentum was amazing.

"Hundreds of millions of Black Armors are the blade of Lord Divine, and will surely destroy the darkness!"

The Black Armor Army also shouted in unison, and their morale soared.

"Very good, I like your spirit. You deserve to be cultivators of my Immortal Execution Dynasty, and you deserve to be the Black Armor Army of my dynasty!

Now, I will take you to the Godly Ancient Grounds!"

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he opened the Eight Nine Profound Palace and loaded all the trillions of people into it.

After all, there were too many people. If he let them follow him to cross realms, it would take a lot of time to queue up for passage through the realm passage.

The realm passage of the Lower Realm was far less large than the passage between the Upper Realm and the Godly Ancient Grounds.

When he returned to the sect, only the disciples above the Heng Divine Realm were on the square, as well as Grandpa Jiu and Uncle Bird, and his senior brothers and sisters.

"Grandpa Jiu, you should stay, the sect affairs always need someone to handle."

"Are you looking down on my old bones?

Someone can handle the sect affairs, so many high-level people, why do you need an old man like me."

"Wuxie, don't say any words of dissuasion.

If you don't let us go to the Godly Ancient Grounds, then we will go by ourselves!

Even if you seal the realm passage, we can still ask the Ancestor to send us there!"

Uncle Bird said, He Qingyun was by his side, and their couple's attitude was firm.

So were the senior brothers and sisters.

"Okay, I will take you there.

But senior brothers and sisters, you must obey the arrangements and don't rush to the front to be pioneers."

"We understand."

They knew their strength well.

In this sect, although they were of the same generation as the uncles, their strength was not as good as the disciples of the same realm.

Back then, they were selected into the Sect King Academy because of their outstanding talents.

But that era could not be compared with the later great world.

The disciples recruited by the sect later were all carefully selected in the great world.

It can be said that anyone in the sect was a genius.

Their talent bloodlines were stronger than theirs, and they were especially suitable for cultivating the Sword Dao.

Therefore, they were much better than them in the Immortal Execution Sword Dao.

At the beginning, there were some years when they felt lost because of this, feeling that they were useless and too bad.

Later, they slowly figured it out.

It was something to be proud of that the sect's disciples were all geniuses, it was their honor.

If their talent was not good, then they should do their best within their ability.

"Then let's go."

Jun Wuxie used the Eight Nine Profound Palace to collect the disciples gathered on the square, a total of hundreds of thousands of people.

Three-tenths of these people had participated in the primordial flood in the Upper Realm and were the earliest batch of disciples of the Immortal Execution Sword Sect.

"Ancestor, Ancestor Mother, we are leaving."

Jun Wuxie said to the back mountain.

"Creatures of the Lower Realm, my people, we are leaving."

Jun Wuxie's voice echoed in the starry sky again, saying goodbye to the creatures of the Lower Realm.

Immediately, he and Grandpa Jiu and others stepped into the two-realm passage.

……

At this time, all the creatures in the Lower Realm faced the direction of the imperial city, praying in their hearts for Lord Divine and the heroes who went to fight against the darkness.

Lord Divine had left and was going to fight against the darkness again.

Lord Divine had been fighting against the darkness all his life, back then in this world, later in the Upper Realm, and now in the Godly Ancient Grounds.

Lord Divine had shouldered too much and had a difficult life.

The eyes of the creatures of all races turned red.

This prosperous era was won by Lord Divine leading the heroes of all races at the cost of their lives.

Living in such an era, under the protection of Lord Divine and the heroes of all races, they could not do anything, could not share Lord Divine's worries, and were not qualified to go to the dark battlefield.

All they could do was to build the dynasty better, maintain the order of the dynasty together, so that Lord Divine and others had no worries.
