Chapter 305 – The truth about the Pan Yang Rebellion
As the unparalleled genius of the Tongtian Pavilion, he unexpectedly had impure thoughts towards a girl transformed from a plate goat, causing his Dao heart to waver and be invaded by the demon god.
When this young man woke up, he had already completed the analysis of the plate goat and the demon god himself, leaving behind numerous manuscripts in the ancient buildings surrounding the seal.
"But how could he have impure thoughts towards a plate goat?"
Su Yun was quite puzzled. It was just a plate goat, how could he have impure thoughts towards it?
But then he thought of his own impure thoughts towards Senior Sister Xiaoyao, and he felt relieved.
"Senior Sister Xiaoyao was originally the auspicious dragon that evolved from the silver fish in the Long River. If she seduces me like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself... No, Ying Ying, are you still in my mind? You forcefully put these strange thoughts into my mind! Come out!"
Su Yun suddenly remembered that because he was worried about the danger of this journey, he had let Ying Ying leave his spiritual realm and go to Chi Xiaoyao's side.
"Is this senior of the Tongtian Pavilion tempted and fallen by the demon god? Could it be that Ying Ying is a little demon god? Otherwise, why would these strange thoughts suddenly appear in my mind?" he thought to himself.
The Divine Emperor continued, "After realizing that I was being used, I tried to kill the demon god suppressed there, but I deeply felt my own weakness. After trying, I ignited the underground Ash City with a fire, and escaped from there."
Su Yun raised his eyebrows.
Although the Divine Emperor spoke lightly, there were many hidden meanings in his seemingly casual words.
Firstly, his mention of trying indicated that he had broken into the underground palace in order to kill the demon god, but after exhausting all methods, he found that he couldn't do anything to the demon god.
In fact, he might have unintentionally done a good deed and unintentionally helped the demon god escape!
Only in this way could it explain why he set fire to Ash City when he escaped. The purpose of setting fire to Ash City was to cover up his mistakes and failures. Many arsonists set fires to conceal their incompetence.
His mistake was being used by the demon god, cracking some of the seals left by the Holy Emperor, Winged Dragon, and others, allowing the demon god to escape ahead of time!
Another consequence of his burning of Ash City was that the fire ignited in Ash City's underground Ash City, engulfing the above-ground Boshan City, causing countless deaths and turning Boshan City into an above-ground Ash City.
There was another consequence, which was that the Ash King in Ash City was also freed and led his people to live in Boshan City, which had turned into an above-ground Ash City. As a result, the Ash King's Disease slowly spread during the chaos caused by the plate goat.
"His words hide so much meaning. It seems that his words are true, and ninety percent of the records in the Saintess's Notes are fake."
Su Yun silently thought to himself, "The Saintess's Notes were just fabricated to lure me in."
For someone as clever as him, even with just a tiny bit of information, he could deduce many things.
The Divine Emperor continued, "After I escaped from there, about a month later, the disaster of the plate goat broke out."
Su Yun's eyes flickered as he said, "Then, Senior saw the numerous disasters caused by the plate goat, countless casualties among the people, and being buried under the plate goat's claws and teeth. Senior suddenly felt that an opportunity had come."
He showed a mocking smile, "Senior can use the people's fear of the plate goat and death to gather faith and become a deity, becoming the biggest winner. Thus, the Heavenly Court was established."
The Divine Emperor slightly bowed, "Su Sect Master is clever and guessed correctly, but the establishment of the Heavenly Court was a few years later than what Sect Master guessed. In the first few years of the plate goat disaster, I was restless. Others didn't know what the plate goat disaster meant and thought it was a natural disaster, but I knew the truth because the plate goat had been demonized, which I discovered."
He narrated that piece of history. The technique of demonizing the plate goat was created by him, but it was not released by him. It was released by the demon god in the underground of Boshan County, sweeping across the Western Continent overseas.
Although the demon god used the Divine Emperor's true body to break the seal, it was not completely undone. He still needed to use the plate goat disaster to enhance his own strength by creating boundless fear and slaughter.
The Divine Emperor's fear of the demon god gradually dissipated after a few years, so he established the Heavenly Court.
Su Yun's eyes twitched as he asked, "Did the demon god enhance his strength through fear and slaughter?"
The Divine Emperor nodded, "Yes."
Su Yun continued, "Just now, Senior said that the demon god transformed into a girl to seduce you? And then, after you woke up, he used you to break the seals in the palace?"
The Divine Emperor raised his eyebrows, neither admitting nor denying.
Su Yun frowned and asked, "Do you have this kind of thought? All your actions are under the control of the demon god, even the arson that burned Ash City, should also be under the control of the demon god?"
The Divine Emperor's body was enveloped in a faint light, his face couldn't be seen, only the faint light was trembling slightly, "This is just your thought. The Divine Emperor of the Heavenly Court would not make such mistakes."
Su Yun's face darkened as he coldly said, "The one suppressed underground in Boshan County is a demon god who has cultivated into a human and demon. He is manipulating you. When you entered the underground Ash City, you became his tool! That's why he gave you such great fear, to the point where you haven't been able to escape from his shadow for years!"
The Divine Emperor burst into laughter, and his laughter echoed throughout the Lingxiao Palace.
"But I eventually broke free. A few years later, I suddenly realized that the reason he did all this was because he hadn't completely escaped from his prison. So I used the fear he caused to strengthen my Heavenly Court."He smiled and said, "Things are going even smoother than I imagined. He brings destruction, fear, and despair to people, while I bring faith, hope, and redemption. My cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and one day, I will become stronger than the gods and demons. I have searched through ancient myths, and no god or demon has ever been stronger than me. After the chaos of the Pan Yang Rebellion is over, I will be the first person in history... No, I mean the first divine being."
The Divine Emperor smiled and said, "You mean the first divine genius."
Su Yun ignored his self-praise and asked, "So, senior, how did the Pan Yang Rebellion end?"
The Divine Emperor fell silent.
Su Yun understood and said, "You used each other, and he finally broke the seal and escaped from the underground. After his escape, he no longer wanted to use people's fear to strengthen himself..."
"No, Su Sect Master, you're wrong again."
The Divine Emperor's tone was calm. "In the later stages of the Pan Yang Rebellion, we reached an understanding. He created fear and harvested it, while I absorbed faith and forged more golden bodies. We did not interfere with each other and lived in peace. But after manipulating the world for thirty years, we discovered the birth of Xin Xue. We both stopped and nervously watched this seedling that could either benefit us or overthrow us."
Su Yun shivered.
He had many speculations about the birth of Xin Xue and even suspected it was a conspiracy against Yuan Shuo. But from what he saw now, the birth of Xin Xue was just a coincidence, or even luck! n0VeluSb.c0M
Because the Heavenly Court and the Demon Gods, the two giants, could have easily eradicated the seedling of Xin Xue!
The Pan Yang Rebellion ended so mysteriously, but Xin Xue managed to survive tenaciously. The Divine Emperor seemed to have taken advantage of this new force and supported many leaders of Xin Xue.
"Even so, I still feel that people's faith in the Heavenly Court is declining."
The Divine Emperor said, "But that demon god is thriving, manipulating the wars of various countries in the Western Region, harvesting death and fear. I can feel his power growing day by day, becoming more and more dissatisfied. He has already released many demon gods that were suppressed underground. Not long ago, I discovered that he had a big plan. He entangled other gods and demons and injured the sealed Winged Dragon."
Su Yun blinked his eyes and thought, "So, Brother Winged Dragon was turned into a great demon god by that person, entangled with the existence that was suppressed by Brother. That's why Brother was sealed back and they tried to deceive me, making me kill Brother. Fortunately, Brother's younger brother, which is me, is clever and didn't fall for it..."
The Divine Emperor smiled and said, "So, Su Sect Master, have you figured it out?"
Su Yun smiled and said, "I have figured it out."
The Divine Emperor said, "Oh," and asked, "What have you figured out, Su Sect Master?"
"I have figured out that you must join forces with me to fight against that person and other demon gods. I have also figured out that the Overseas Heavenly Tower Master is not your enemy."
Su Yun smiled and said, "It is very likely that the Overseas Tower Master has already joined forces with the great demon god. Although you have bestowed upon him the title of Holy Emperor at such a young age, he seems to not care about your reward! He is ambitious and does not want to submit to the divine authority. So, he plotted against me through Ming Yufei, causing a conflict between me and you."
Su Yun said lightly, "Although you are not a good person either, he and the great demon god are not good people either. You are all the same."
The Divine Emperor laughed heartily and said calmly, "But you have no other choice but to cooperate with me. Only by cooperating with me can you get rid of him and become the true Tower Master! You don't know his power, nor do you know his wisdom. He already has the support of many elders in the Heavenly Tower!"
Su Yun felt a chill in his heart.
When Ming Yufei plotted against him, Tai Sui was present. Obviously, Tai Sui, as an elder, had already chosen to support the Overseas Tower Master.
Did White Ze, Brave Troops, and other elders also make their own choices?
"It is almost impossible for you to gain the legitimate position of the Tower Master with only the support of the Yuan Shuo Heavenly Tower, because since its establishment, the focus of the Heavenly Tower has always been on the overseas regions."
The Divine Emperor said calmly, "But in the upper echelons of the Heavenly Tower, I have power that is no less than that of the elders! With my support, your position will be secure! Join me, and I will give you power!"
Su Yun smiled and said, "But I can also join forces with the Overseas Tower Master, eliminate you first, and then determine the outcome between us. If you join me, I promise you won't die."
The Divine Emperor sneered, "After eliminating me, do you think you will be a match for him and the great demon god? Don't overestimate yourself, Su Sect Master. If Winged Dragon is injured, the demon god will definitely chase after him. It won't be long before they find out that Winged Dragon is hiding behind you. Do you think those gods and demons sealed within you can resist his temptation?"
Su Yun's heart throbbed violently.
Among the 96 gods and demons sealed in his memory, except for Winged Dragon, none of them were willing to be suppressed. If that great demon god reached an agreement with them, both he and Winged Dragon would have no place to bury themselves!
The Divine Emperor knew his thoughts and said, "But I can help you resist them. As long as you pledge your loyalty to me."
Su Yun laughed heartily, stood up, turned and walked outside the hall, saying calmly, "I am the Tower Master of the Heavenly Tower. How can I pledge my loyalty to you? We can cooperate, and since it is cooperation, it should be mutually beneficial."
Su Yun stood outside the hall, raised his left index finger, and smiled, "You have underestimated me. I will handle the pursuit of the great demon god myself! Goodbye!"
The Divine Emperor sat there motionless. "Handle it yourself? How will you handle it?"
He watched Su Yun leave, and at this moment, Yu Shuangyun and the others finally climbed up the steps and arrived at the entrance of the hall.
Yu Shuangyun looked at Su Yun, then at the Divine Emperor in Lingxiao Palace, hesitating. She saw that the other scholars from the academies had already rushed into the palace and bowed to the Divine Emperor.
Yu Shuangyun was momentarily unsure of what to do.
At this moment, in the East Sea County of Yuan Shuo, it was late at night. In the Great Qin Navy, a Great Qin general had a dream in which the Divine Emperor appeared and sent him a dream message, along with a letter, instructing him to deliver it to the Prime Minister of Yuan Shuo, Wen Guanshan.
When the general woke up, he indeed saw a letter placed by his pillow.Several days later, Dan Qing unfolded the letter sent by the renowned Wen Guan Mountain, and read, "My brother in Wuling: Seeing your words is like seeing your face. It has been nearly sixty years since our hurried farewell in Xingdu, yet the sound and image of my brother still linger in my ears and eyes. Now, there is a man named Su Yun from Yuan Shuo, who has crossed the sea. He possesses the aspects of a demon god, causing chaos in the western lands..."
Dan Qing closed the letter, surprised, "Even he can't handle Su Yun? To the extent that he has to write to me, asking for Su Yun's weaknesses, and requesting sealing runes from me."

Chapter 305 – The truth about the Pan Yang Rebellion

Su Yun silently thought to himself, "The Saintess's Notes were just fabricated to lure me in."
For someone as clever as him, even with just a tiny bit of information, he could deduce many things.
The Divine Emperor continued, "After I escaped from there, about a month later, the disaster of the plate goat broke out."
Su Yun's eyes flickered as he said, "Then, Senior saw the numerous disasters caused by the plate goat, countless casualties among the people, and being buried under the plate goat's claws and teeth. Senior suddenly felt that an opportunity had come."
He showed a mocking smile, "Senior can use the people's fear of the plate goat and death to gather faith and become a deity, becoming the biggest winner. Thus, the Heavenly Court was established."

We did not interfere with each other and lived in peace. But after manipulating the world for thirty years, we discovered the birth of Xin Xue. We both stopped and nervously watched this seedling that could either benefit us or overthrow us." Su Yun shivered. He had many speculations about the birth of Xin Xue and even suspected it was a conspiracy against Yuan Shuo. But from what he saw now, the birth of Xin Xue was just a coincidence, or even luck! n0VeluSb.c0MBecause the Heavenly Court and the Demon Gods, the two giants, could have easily eradicated the seedling of Xin Xue! The Pan Yang Rebellion ended so mysteriously, but Xin Xue managed to survive tenaciously. The Divine Emperor seemed to have taken advantage of this new force and supported many leaders of Xin Xue. "Even so, I still feel that people's faith in the Heavenly Court is declining." The Divine Emperor said, "But that demon god is thriving, manipulating the wars of various countries in the Western Region, harvesting death and fear. I can feel his power growing day by day, becoming more and more dissatisfied. He has already released many demon gods that were suppressed underground. Not long ago, I discovered that he had a big plan. He entangled other gods and demons and injured the sealed Winged Dragon." Su Yun blinked his eyes and thought, "So, Brother Winged Dragon was turned into a great demon god by that person, entangled with the existence that was suppressed by Brother. That's why Brother was sealed back and they tried to deceive me, making me kill Brother. Fortunately, Brother's younger brother, which is me, is clever and didn't fall for it..." The Divine Emperor smiled and said, "So, Su Sect Master, have you figured it out?" Su Yun smiled and said, "I have figured it out." The Divine Emperor said, "Oh," and asked, "What have you figured out, Su Sect Master?" "I have figured out that you must join forces with me to fight against that person and other demon gods. I have also figured out that the Overseas Heavenly Tower Master is not your enemy." Su Yun smiled and said, "It is very likely that the Overseas Tower Master has already joined forces with the great demon god. Although you have bestowed upon him the title of Holy Emperor at such a young age, he seems to not care about your reward! He is ambitious and does not want to submit to the divine authority. So, he plotted against me through Ming Yufei, causing a conflict between me and you." Su Yun said lightly, "Although you are not a good person either, he and the great demon god are not good people either. You are all the same." The Divine Emperor laughed heartily and said calmly, "But you have no other choice but to cooperate with me. Only by cooperating with me can you get rid of him and become the true Tower Master! You don't know his power, nor do you know his wisdom. He already has the support of many elders in the Heavenly Tower!" Su Yun felt a chill in his heart. When Ming Yufei plotted against him, Tai Sui was present. Obviously, Tai Sui, as an elder, had already chosen to support the Overseas Tower Master. Did White Ze, Brave Troops, and other elders also make their own choices? "It is almost impossible for you to gain the legitimate position of the Tower Master with only the support of the Yuan Shuo Heavenly Tower, because since its establishment, the focus of the Heavenly Tower has always been on the overseas regions." The Divine Emperor said calmly, "But in the upper echelons of the Heavenly Tower, I have power that is no less than that of the elders! With my support, your position will be secure! Join me, and I will give you power!" Su Yun smiled and said, "But I can also join forces with the Overseas Tower Master, eliminate you first, and then determine the outcome between us. If you join me, I promise you won't die." The Divine Emperor sneered, "After eliminating me, do you think you will be a match for him and the great demon god? Don't overestimate yourself, Su Sect Master. If Winged Dragon is injured, the demon god will definitely chase after him. It won't be long before they find out that Winged Dragon is hiding behind you. Do you think those gods and demons sealed within you can resist his temptation?" Su Yun's heart throbbed violently. Among the 96 gods and demons sealed in his memory, except for Winged Dragon, none of them were willing to be suppressed. If that great demon god reached an agreement with them, both he and Winged Dragon would have no place to bury themselves! The Divine Emperor knew his thoughts and said, "But I can help you resist them. As long as you pledge your loyalty to me." Su Yun laughed heartily, stood up, turned and walked outside the hall, saying calmly, "I am the Tower Master of the Heavenly Tower. How can I pledge my loyalty to you? We can cooperate, and since it is cooperation, it should be mutually beneficial." Su Yun stood outside the hall, raised his left index finger, and smiled, "You have underestimated me. I will handle the pursuit of the great demon god myself! Goodbye!" The Divine Emperor sat there motionless. "Handle it yourself? How will you handle it?" He watched Su Yun leave, and at this moment, Yu Shuangyun and the others finally climbed up the steps and arrived at the entrance of the hall. Yu Shuangyun looked at Su Yun, then at the Divine Emperor in Lingxiao Palace, hesitating. She saw that the other scholars from the academies had already rushed into the palace and bowed to the Divine Emperor. Yu Shuangyun was momentarily unsure of what to do. At this moment, in the East Sea County of Yuan Shuo, it was late at night. In the Great Qin Navy, a Great Qin general had a dream in which the Divine Emperor appeared and sent him a dream message, along with a letter, instructing him to deliver it to the Prime Minister of Yuan Shuo, Wen Guanshan. When the general woke up, he indeed saw a letter placed by his pillow.Several days later, Dan Qing unfolded the letter sent by the renowned Wen Guan Mountain, and read, "My brother in Wuling: Seeing your words is like seeing your face. It has been nearly sixty years since our hurried farewell in Xingdu, yet the sound and image of my brother still linger in my ears and eyes. Now, there is a man named Su Yun from Yuan Shuo, who has crossed the sea. He possesses the aspects of a demon god, causing chaos in the western lands..." Dan Qing closed the letter, surprised, "Even he can't handle Su Yun? To the extent that he has to write to me, asking for Su Yun's weaknesses, and requesting sealing runes from me."
