Chu Xisheng commanded the entire Daluo Ant Clan and resud its march half a day later. On a branch of the Creation Divine Tree, the Master of Pure and Satisfied, Shen Jingli, had also recovered her injuries completely.
When she stepped out from the Divine Temple where she had been hiding, a ball of spirit light imdiately appeared at her side.
It was Shen Putian, who breathed a sigh: "The gods are extrely displeased with your actions four days ago, especially Ziwei Star Lord. He is very angry."
He referred to the incident four days ago when Shen Jingli was the first to retreat from the battlefield.
Shen Jingli’s retreat left several gods in an awkward situation as they were engaged in fierce combat with Chu Xisheng.
Among them, the blood and flesh avatar of Jun Star Lord was almost killed by Chu Xisheng.
And Jun is precisely the capable general and right-hand of Ziwei Star Lord.
This emperor, at a ti when preserving strength was crucial, sent his subordinates to the mortal realm to eliminate the hidden threat of Chu Xisheng.
As a result, after Ziwei Star Lord paid a huge price, Shen Jingli’s unauthorized retreat led to a failure in his plans. How could he not be furious?
To so extent, Shen Jingli was the instigator of the battle three days ago, the first advocate.
Yet Shen Jingli herself was the first to retreat, which is truly indefensible in terms of morality.
After the battle that day, Ziwei Star Lord personally went to ’Tianjing Star’ to confront Shen Jingli. However, Shen Jingli preemptively sealed her true form within the interior of ’Tianjing Star,’ leaving Ziwei Star Lord helpless.
Nonetheless, the emperor stared at ’Tianjing Star’ for a full half a mont before turning away.
"If I didn’t leave then, was I supposed to wait there to die?"
Shen Jingli’s face looked extrely unpleasant: "Besides, the situation was already hopeless at that ti. Before I withdrew, I had warned them. They didn’t take it seriously initially, yet now they bla ."
At that ti, she had been bombarded by Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber for a full hour, accumulating heavy soul injuries.
When Chu Xisheng broke through the mortal god boundaries, briefly stepping into demigod status and boosting his combat power, Shen Jingli could no longer withstand it.
If she continued, her Divided Soul Primordial Spirit would have been completely shattered by Chu Xisheng.
As a result, it took Shen Jingli’s blood and flesh avatar a full three days to finally recover.
She even had to hide in her own Divine Temple, extracting a large amount of power from followers to aid her recovery.
Shen Putian gave a bitter smile upon hearing her sentints, understanding his friend’s thoughts, but—
"You shouldn’t say these words to ; the gods above can’t understand you. Ziwei Emperor is bound to demand an explanation from you."
"I know, those weaklings, they rely need soone as a punching bag. I just happen to fit the bill. As for Ziwei Emperor, he’s venting; smoothing this over won’t be difficult as long as I’m willing to pay the price."
Shen Jingli’s voice was calm, but her complexion was pale.
"By the way, what happened after I left? Where is Chu Xisheng and what are his movents?"
Her blood and flesh avatar required seclusion to heal its injuries, while her true form sealed itself within a star to evade Ziwei Star Lord’s revenge.
Thus, she had been isolated from information over the past few days.
"What else could happen? Chu Xisheng was safely inscribing the Heavenly Rules Source Seal. He spent nearly three days on it, undisturbed throughout."
Shen Putian sighed.
This was a disgrace for the Giant Spirit Clans and the Eternal Giant God.
The Four Great Divine Mountains turned a blind eye to him.
The gods could only watch helplessly as that guy inscribed the Heavenly Rules Source Seal right under their noses.
"Recently, an important event occurred in the south. This brat is extrely troubleso and tricky, commanding the Ant Clan to loot the north while advancing to demigod status right under our eyes, while scheming against Emperor Jianyuan in the south."
Shen Putian gave a brief overview of the details of the great battle at Tianhuai River in the south, followed by a sigh: "Now, Emperor Jianyuan’s status is really bad. Less than half a day after the battle, their Prince Xiang raised an army of 2.7 million to march north, directly threatening Wang’an City. It’s still uncertain whether Emperor Jianyuan can repel them effectively, but at the very least, Prince Xiang forms a faction.
Moreover, the counties in Liang State and Iron State, together with the more than two million border army in these areas, all swapped to the Northern Territory Governor’s flag on the day of the war. Also, Cang Province, Jizhou, Juzhou, and other places—all regions previously occupied by Extre East Ice City—have changed their banners in recent days. The eastern half of Divine Continent is no longer under Daning’s control, and the Heluo Two States and Wang’an City are already in turmoil.
Friend, if you want Divine Continent Clan to maintain the balance, it may be hard to achieve. If we don’t intervene, Daning has at most half a year left, possibly even less. Yet intervening is very inadvisable—"
Shen Putian’s voice abruptly halted, followed by another bitter smile.
Emperor Jianyuan is a Yin-Yang unifier, a power seeker aiming to unseal Diwa.
How could the gods assist him?
Yet it seems equally inadvisable to stand by as Chu Xisheng unifies Divine Continent and becos the Human Clan New Emperor.
What if the Human Clan again produces a Holy Emperor capable of unifying all hearts in Divine Continent?
This must be guarded against, just like Diwa and Burial Sky.
"No need to worry about Emperor Jianyuan for now. The Master of Thousands of Deceptions, that lunatic, will not allow Chu Xisheng to ddle with his plans. Those Taiyin and Sun should not be underestimated. Chu Xisheng wanting to overthrow Daning isn’t that plausible. Therefore, let’s wait and see, and intervene when Emperor Jianyuan finds himself at his wit’s end."
After an ironic laugh, Shen Jingli imdiately thought of how after these tumultuous experiences, she had lost all influence over the judgnt of the emperors and Ancestor Gods.
Her opinion could no longer affect their decisions, leaving her utterly disheartened.
