The Jade Emperor looked at Zhun Ti without fear.
Because he knew that in his position, even a saint would not be able to touch him.
Zhun Ti smiled and said, “But I feel that there is still room for discussion on this matter.”
“What do you want to discuss?”
Zhun Ti rolled his eyes and smiled. “All living things in this universe are under your control, but regarding those who cultivate our Western orthodoxy, please return them to Mount Numinous. What do you think? Isn’t this too much?”
To put it bluntly, Zhun Ti wanted people.
The Jade Emperor also knew that he couldn’t be too disrespectful.
However, wanting Immortal stage cultivators didn’t actually harm the interests of the current Heavenly Court.
However, there was still a certain prerequisite. The Jade Emperor said, “What you said said makes sense. These people can naturally return them to Mount Numinous. I will tell Yun Xiao and Yang Jian to return the cultivators who cultivate the Western teachings to Mount Numinous. However, they can not enter the mortal world again!”
Zhun Ti narrowed his eyes when he heard this condition. He shook his head and said, “That won’t do. Our Western cultivation techniques emphasize on entering the mortal world to cultivate. If they don’t enter the mortal world, how can they cultivate? How can they enlighten all living things? In my opinion, these people can go back, but they can not use cultivation techniques beyond the Mahayana stage.”
The Jade Emperor sneered in his heart.
If these people returned to the mortal world, even if they restricted their cultivation, they would still far surpass ordinary cultivators. This would definitely cause the Western sects to grow even stronger! How great would this be?
“No, absolutely not.” The Jade Emperor rejected Zhun Ti’s suggestion and said in a deep voice, “Saint, in my opinion, it is better to let them return to the Mount Numinous.”
“That’s fine too.” Zhun Ti did not insist too much.
After the agreement was completed, he left the Heavenly Court.
However, after leaving the Heavenly Court, his expression turned gloomy.
If he was not allowed to return to the mortal world, then the role of these people would be much lower than he imagined.
He had always been a calculative person. By asking this question, he was actually testing the Jade Emperor’s attitude.
Because he wasn’t sure of the Jade Emperor’s true thoughts.
But just now, he saw ambition in the Jade Emperor’s eyes!
It was the ambition to control everything!
From the beginning of the primeval era, a group of cultivators had walked through a battle.
If they didn’t fight, they wouldn’t have anything!
This point was very clear.
But now, what methods would they use to fight?
The three religions had already died out in name, and the Heavenly Court had become a direct competitor to Mount Numinous.
The incense of merit was what both sides wanted.
However, it was clear that the Heavenly Court had the upper hand.
“Hmph, this move of yours is indeed not bad. Unfortunately, the people you’ve sent have yet to gain a firm foothold, and you’ve only sent two emperors. So what if I compete with you?”
No one else knew what had happened.
Lu Ping and the others were even more unaware.
Lu Ping’s life had once again returned to normal.
He cultivated every day and taught his disciples.
Naturally, he would be able to improve.
However, it had to be said that ever since there were more disciples, the sect contribution points grew faster and faster.
After learning about the wonders of the ninth level from Huang Xiaoqi, Lu Ping also yearned for it.
However, with eight million contribution points, even though Lu Ping enjoyed his disciples’ daily share, it was actually a different matter.
At this moment, a spaceship landed on Fengming Planet.
Just as the spaceship landed, celestial tribulation condensed in the sky!
In fact, there were several experts from other planets on this spaceship.
They wanted to come to Fengming Planet because they had received the news.
In their opinion, if there were no Immortal stage experts on Fengming Planet, they would be a piece of fat meat. They could definitely organize an invasion!
Unfortunately, with the celestial tribulation, everything was different.
Out of the five Immortal stage experts, two died and three ascended…
As for the rest of the people on the spaceship, they were immediately controlled by the local cultivators.
Soon, someone came to invite Lu Ping.
To put it bluntly, as the only Immortal stage expert on Fengming Planet, if something big happened, how could they not look for him?
A beautiful woman came to the front gate of the Seven Phoenixes sect.
“The commander of the Qingzhou state, Zheng Qianye, is here to see Sect Master Lu Ping! Please inform him.”
When the news was sent to Lu Ping, Lu Ping fell into deep thought.
There were a total of 365 states on Fengming Planet, which was equivalent to the number of stars in the sky. Each state commander was a ruler elected by the local sects. Those who could reach this position were all outstanding people.
He also knew Zheng Qianye. After all, she was the commander of the Green state.
She was also extremely popular in the Qingzhou state. With her flowing long hair, beautiful face, and ruthless methods, she became a household name on Fengming Planet.
She even introduced a rule in the Qingzhou state to punish the strong!
It could be said that she was a controversial and popular figure.
Soon, Lu Ping personally came out to welcome her. No matter what, she was an important figure who ruled Qingzhou state.
She had to be given the respect he deserved.
Lu Ping and Zheng Qianye entered the sect building and came to the reception hall. The two of them took their seats and Huang Shiliu brought them tea.
Zheng Qianye smiled and said, “This child is really beautiful. Just looking at her makes one fill with spiritual energy!”
One had to admit that Huang Shiliu’s appearance was really likable.
Huang Shiliu looked at Zheng Qianye carefully, then turned around and ran out.
Lu Ping looked at Zheng Qianye and asked, “May I know why Commander Zheng Is here?”
Zheng Qianye smiled and said, “A few days ago, there were extraterrestrial cultivators who came. Among them, there were some Immortal stage cultivators. Two died and three ascended. The rest were controlled. After interrogation, those people wanted to probe the situation of Fengming Planet and wanted to take control of Fengming Planet. I wonder what you think about this matter?”
Lu Ping frowned. He really didn’t know about this matter.
Although he was an official of Fengming Planet and could do many things, he was not omniscient after all.
As soon as this matter came out, the news was immediately blocked. No one in the outside world knew about it.
“Who are they?”
Zheng Qianye said, “According to the interrogation, they are cultivators from Deer Mountain Planet. On that planet, their sect, the Pure Void sect, is the dominant sect. It is said that the patriarch of the sect has the cultivation base of an Origin Immortal. This time, they sent people to check on us because they know that all the experts on Fengming Planet have ascended. They are also here to gather information.”
As Zheng Qianye said this, she stole a glance at Lu Ping.
Lu Ping smiled and said, “Ignore them. Haven’t I already said that the Heavenly Court is powerful? If they send someone here, they will be courting death.”
Zheng Qianye was here to test Lu Ping’s words.
In the end, although Lu Ping had been promoting the strength of the Heavenly Court, and Fengming Planet was also under the control of the Heavenly Court, in the end, no one had ever seen an immortal from the Heavenly Court make a move.
A Origin Immortal was an expert that had never appeared on Fengming Planet. With such a cultivation base, no one could guarantee what would happen to Fengming Planet’s cultivators if they really came.
No one knew if they would be forced to ascend.
Therefore, she had to gather some information from Lu Ping, who had connections in the Heavenly Court, to find out what was going on. Only in this way could she feel at ease.
Hearing Lu Ping’s words, Zheng Qianye heaved a sigh of relief.
According to Lu Ping’s words, there would definitely be no problems with the foreign enemies.
However, she had another purpose for coming here this time.
A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She looked at Lu Ping seriously and said with a smile, “Sect Master Lu, there’s one more thing I want to ask you. What do you think of me?”
Lu Ping narrowed his eyes and asked instead of answering, “What does Commander Zheng mean?”
“I’m the commander of a state. It makes sense for me to have a high cultivation base. Originally, the Azure Cloud sect was the dominant sect in the Qingzhou state. My words weren’t that effective, but I think I can make the decisions now. Sect Master Lu, what do you think?”
Lu Ping smiled. “I remember that Commander Zheng was also from the Azure Cloud sect, right?”
Zheng Qianye’s personal information was very transparent.
It could even be said that the Azure Cloud sect had given her a lot of support for being able to sit in her current position!
