The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 336: Buddha Teams Up [Third Update]
Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Buddha Teams Up [Third Update]
"Possessed by a demon leader?"
Ren Hai muttered with furrowed brows as the entire hall was also set abuzz; this was a bombshell revelation!
"Old monk, are the words you speak true or false?" a True Immortal Realm mighty one stood up and pointed at Sang Liang, asking. This matter was of great consequence; if the Qin Emperor were truly possessed by a demon, they could exploit this situation and report it to the Sacred Emperor.
It wasn’t that they were incompetent; rather, a demon had emerged out of nowhere.
Once they joined forces with the entire Righteous Dao, even the most powerful Qin Emperor would have to kneel!
"It is indeed true. As disciples of Buddhism, we must act as Heaven’s agents of justice!" An imposing monk behind Sang Liang declared solemnly, his righteous appearance leaving the cultivators of the Righteous Alliance at a loss for words.
Sang Liang understood that they didn’t believe these high-sounding statements, so he explained: "Have you ever heard of the Valley of Death in the No-Man’s Land? On that day, I personally witnessed the demon possessing the body of Qin Emperor; it is an ancient demon we’re talking about. If we let it regain its full strength, the Southern Domain will surely face a great catastrophe!"
Valley of Death!
With these words, everyone was moved. They had all heard of the legend of the Valley of Death; after all, it was one of the most famous forbidden grounds in the No-Man’s Land, a place where opportunity and danger coexisted, and every cultivator who ventured into the No-Man’s Land would make a trip to the Valley of Death.
They too had been young once and had visited the Valley of Death.
Ren Hai’s brows furrowed even more. He was not only shocked by the incident of the Qin Emperor being possessed but was also astonished by the strength of Sang Liang and his four companions, especially the four burly monks behind Sang Liang, whose aura was so intimidating that even he felt a chill down his spine. This indicated that these four burly monks could pose a threat to his life.
"Which Buddhist sect do you belong to?" Ren Hai asked, turning the topic back to Sang Liang and his four companions.
Under the gaze of the entire Righteous Alliance, Sang Liang replied softly with a smile: "Western Region’s Buddhism!"
The four words struck the assembly into silence!
...
In the Great Qin kingdom, within the royal military camp.
"If you encounter any suitable talents, remember to send them to the No-Man’s Land; I urgently need more talents there."
Qin Jun said while strolling along, followed by Evening Star, Jia Xun, Shen Yan, and a host of Great Qin high officials who were earnestly taking note of every single word Qin Jun said.
The current Qin Jun was no longer the spendthrift prince of the past; his every word and deed carried an immense imperial authority that made them dare not slack in the slightest.
"Starting tomorrow, we will begin selecting talents, and we won’t neglect our duties," Jia Xun hurriedly assured.
Qin Jun nodded; he only needed to speak, and his subordinates would carry it out, a most satisfying arrangement.
"Your Majesty, the noise you’ve been making recently is rather loud; I fear that..." Evening Star hesitated to speak.
Qin Jun paused in his steps and turned to look at him, smiling as he asked, "Evening Star, could it be that you have predicted something?"
In the matter of divination, Evening Star was far stronger than Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen, by more than just a small margin.
"I don’t wish to conceal it and hope Your Majesty won’t blame me; indeed, I have predicted something," Evening Star spoke through clenched teeth. With more than a handful of subordinates stronger than him, he also feared offending Qin Jun.
Qin Jun waved it off with a smile, "Frank advice grates on the ear. Why would I blame you?"
The others looked toward Evening Star with curiosity, wondering what he had foreseen.
"I detected that Your Majesty might encounter a major disaster in the upcoming year," Evening Star said through clenched teeth.
Hearing this, Qin Jun’s pupils contracted while the rest secretly smacked their lips, thinking, you really dare to say it?
Qin Jun didn’t get angry. Indeed, he had managed to offend quite a few powers recently. The Demonic Dao’s nine revered ones would probably look at him unfavorably because of the attack by the Flat Sky Demon Monarch; as for the Flat Sky Demon Monarch, there was no need to mention, the hatred had already triggered a side quest. Moreover, there was the mighty Western Region Buddhism, a terrifying force with Tathāgata as their leader.
He had also recently offended the Righteous Alliance, which could further provoke the Sacred Emperor.
Damn!
Upon closer reflection, beneath the calm surface, tumultuous currents were already surging.
Qin Jun’s brows were tightly knotted, causing everyone else to dare not even breathe heavily.
"Don’t worry, I shall have the fortune that favors the brave," Qin Jun finally said, flashing a dazzling smile before stepping through the portal without looking back.
Even if a thousand demons stand as enemies, and Heaven and Earth become foes, what of it?
Harbor grudges or gratitude, why bother over so much! Throughout his journey, hasn’t he always tread upon stacks of white bones? Whoever obstructs him will surely come to regret it!
Even in death, it would be a death with defiance, maintaining the posture of vaulting towards the sky.
Watching Qin Jun’s resolute figure vanish into the portal, Jia Xun couldn’t help but lament to Evening Star, "Evening Star, why would you speak so directly?"
"Don’t worry, our emperor is no ordinary ruler. Didn’t you feel the aura he exuded just now? It’s a powerful confidence that fears nothing," Evening Star shook his head with a smile, leaving everyone else exchanging glances.
Really?
...
Returning to Guarding Slaughter City, Qin Jun once again went to the lord’s mansion courtyard for training.
As Nezha walked in munching on an apple, he chuckled and asked, "Your Majesty, what drives you to work so diligently?"
Being at the fifth level of the Golden Immortal Realm was incredibly powerful, and Nezha considered himself invincible in the Southern Domain.
Thus, he couldn’t understand why Qin Jun was so diligent. Being an emperor, wasn’t it enough that his subordinates were strong?
"Well, I’m bored," Qin Jun replied with a laugh, continuing his energy absorption without opening his eyes.
However, the words of Evening Star earlier had cast a persistent shadow over his heart.
"Your Majesty, shall I take them on alone?" Nezha shrugged and asked, "I’m bored too."
Sweat!
Could you be any more eager for battle?
Qin Jun instinctively wanted to refuse. After all, if he actually let Nezha do it, there would be an irreparable breach between him and the Righteous Alliance.
"Ding! A side quest triggered—The Alliance of the Righteous and Buddha! Quest details: The Western Region’s Buddhism and the Righteous Alliance have joined hands, preparing to wage war against the host. They also plan to spread the news of the host being possessed by the demon leader. If the host defeats them, the host will receive one God and Demon summoning opportunity, one God and Demon dungeon-chance, and one talent search opportunity!"
"Special reminder: with even the slightest carelessness, the host may face repulsion or even being hunted down by the entire Righteous Dao!"
Damn!
The consecutive notification tones from the system made Qin Jun swear inside his mind. The Western Region’s Buddhism had unexpectedly gotten involved at this point!
And they were spreading rumors that he was possessed by a demon; soon it might not just be the Righteous Dao that was conspiring against him, but a united front with the Demonic Dao...
"Alright! Go now, but remember, do not reveal your relationship with me," Qin Jun said darkly, "Drive the Righteous Alliance out of the No-Man’s Land!"
Upon hearing this, Nezha’s eyes immediately lit up, and he threw away the apple he was holding, exclaiming, "Alright! I’m on it!"
Having said that, he leaped into the air, and Hot Wheels appeared under his feet, whisking him away into the sky.
Nezha was naturally combative; as a youth, the trouble he caused his parents was due to his belligerent nature. freēnovelkiss.com
"Since you lack compassion, don’t blame me for my ruthlessness!"
Qin Jun muttered coldly to himself. The Righteous Alliance and the Western Region’s Buddhism were spreading rumors that he was demon-possessed, which was a venomous action that could potentially plunge the Great Qin kingdom into chaos.
