Xuanyuan Huangdi glared at Li Ping’an.
Li Ping’an smiled and opened his right hand, slowly clenching it into a fist, creating visible wrinkles in the cosmos, and said with a smile:
"The Phoenix Clan battle body gifted by the Primordial Phoenix, however, lacks Phoenix Clan war skills, only Golden Crow war skills. I used it as an external avatar; what the peacocks want is this battle body to help propagate the Phoenix Clan’s bloodline."
Xuanyuan Huangdi’s lips twitched continuously.
This guy...
"Why does it feel like your father’s Great Fortune is not as heaven-defying as yours?"
"Perhaps it has sothing to do with the protection of the Heavenly Dao."
Li Ping’an said with a beaming smile, then changed the subject:
"Now that I have Greater Luo Combat Power, I want to solve the problem of the Southern Continent God Court. This kind of hidden danger must be eliminated early, lest it be used by Kunpeng."
Xuanyuan Huangdi asked, "Do you have a way to resolve the God Court?"
"No, let’s play it by ear."
Li Ping’an said:
"I first want to enter the God Court and find a way to replace the Divine King; only after entering will I know how to proceed."
Xuanyuan Huangdi, however, said: "You think it’s simple because you’re not in the Southern Continent at the mont, and you can call upon the power of the Heavenly Dao at any ti, but once you enter the Southern Continent, the Heavenly Dao there is your enemy."
"Even so, I must try. The Southern Continent has almost endless incense and virtue, which the Heavenly Court could perfect."
"I’ll go with you!"
Xuanyuan Huangdi slapped his leg:
"I also bear half of the responsibility for the current state of the Southern Continent. Human sacrifices and offerings make , the Human Emperor, very uncomfortable.
"I and the many warriors have fought since ancient tis for the sake of letting mortals live peaceful lives and stand tall with freedom. Who would have thought that once the Southern Continent was closed to mortals only, they would start playing with each other!
"Anyway, the Holy Mother can resolve this matter upon returning in nine hundred years, so we might as well give it a try."
Li Ping’an, however, found it difficult.
He frowned at Xuanyuan Huangdi, his eyes filled with suspicion.
Xuanyuan Huangdi was amused imdiately: "Are you thinking I’ll hold you back?"
"Not really holding back," Li Ping’an muttered softly, "Are you going to slash your own descendants?"
Xuanyuan Huangdi was taken aback.
He then chuckled awkwardly: "They died long ago; the gods in the God Court rely used their forms. The birth of gods relies on sacrifices and prayers, and they are ultimately just monsters mixed with mortal desires."
"If you can restrain yourself from casually slaying gods, then there’s no reason you can’t co along."
"Goodness, Li Ping’an! Now that your wings have hardened, you start to threaten !"
"See, you’re getting anxious again!"
Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit almost laughed out loud; he certainly wished for a strong ally.
"Please arrange family matters first? Once it’s settled, we’ll visit the Left Attendant Leader and find a way to let her open the passage for us."
"As if she’d dare not to!"
Xuanyuan Huangdi got up and flew off hurriedly.
"Wait for a mont, I’ll go arrange the Xuanyuan Palace defenses and claim I’m in seclusion.
"If we can resolve the Southern Continent God Court, the Holy Mother should be a bit happier upon her return."
Li Ping’an shook his head with a smile, concealed his presence, dispersed the furnace fire, and gazed at the endless waves.
If not for worrying that the Two Saints of the Western Sect would make a move on the Southern Continent God Court to snatch those incense virtues after returning, he couldn’t be bothered to plot these things.
’Ah, Fuxi Shi.’
’Before my senior brother returns, I should first visit the Demon Infant Island to see our master; it’s been a few years... how much has Yao Ji grown?’
...
When Li Ping’an saw Yao Ji again, she could already speak and cultivate, appearing like an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, slightly short, delicate, and adorable.
He did not directly show himself to Yao Ji; he only took a distant glance and chatted with his master about the cultivation progress of the many demon infants.
Interestingly, these demon infants, mostly in adult forms, maintained a high ’synchrony’ with Yao Ji.
They could not learn anything on their own.
But whatever Yao Ji learned, they would learn after a night’s sleep.
Learning to read was like this, speaking was like this, and cultivation was more so.
Li Ping’an’s eyes lit up as he asked: "So that ans, as long as Yao Ji can reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm, we’ll have a group of Heavenly Immortals?"
"Unlikely."
Qing Su folded her arms, her voice very gentle:
"Yao Ji’s cultivation is very, very slow. She has a Fragnt of the Great Dao within her, but cannot enhance her Dao Realm using our cultivation thod; she can only slowly wear away the years.
"These demon infants, though they can share insights with Yao Ji, likewise cannot generate a Dao Realm.
"They seem to have their own cultivation thod, all subservient to that Fragnt of the Great Dao, for which I’ve researched for three years, yielding almost nothing."
Li Ping’an sighed: "Master, you’ve worked hard."
"What’s hard about it?" Qing Su slightly shook her head, "There are many matters in the Heavenly Court I can’t assist with, and now that you have the Phoenix Clan battle body, you don’t need my protection anymore."
Her eyes showed a touch of loss.
Li Ping’an felt a slight impulse rising in his heart, but that impulse, at his throat, inexplicably turned into...
"Master, I intend to go to the Southern Continent to solve the God Court issue next. Would you like to co?"
Qing Su asked: "Do you need ?"
"Likely so," Li Ping’an said quietly, "It’s just that the Southern Continent poses so risk to us; that God Court can deploy nearly infinite Power of Heavenly Scourge."
Qing Su thought for a mont: "I’m now rely a Golden Immortal, far below your battle body in capability..."
"Oh co on! Let’s go!"
A cute round face jumped out from the side; it was of course Guilingling.
Guiling directly said, "Yao Ji now has seventeen or eighteen teachers, and Heavenly Emperor Father visits once or twice a month; we’re not needed here! If you, Qing Qing, aren’t going, I won’t either! Let the senior nephew get struck by lightning and die, whatever!"
Li Ping’an’s forehead filled with black lines.
No, being a wingman is one thing; such a vicious curse is too much!
His main body was hiding in the Heavenly Court, so naturally, the Southern Continent God Court couldn’t reach him.
"Very well then," Qing Su said, "I’ll go and instruct them to take good care of Yao Ji. Will the trip to the Southern Continent take long?"
"Specifically, I don’t know," Li Ping’an said, "Probably cannot be done in one shot, might have to make multiple trips."
"Oh, alright."
Qing Su replied softly and turned into an Ice Blue Immortal Light, departing swiftly.
Guilingling blinked those lively big eyes, making a few faces at Li Ping’an.
Li Ping’an took out so Jade Pool-exclusive snacks from his sleeve and secretly gave them to Guilingling, who imdiately bead with joy.
An hour later.
Carrying the Xuanyuan Sword and wearing golden armor, Xuanyuan Huangdi returned to the small island, looking at the figures of Li Ping’an, Guilingling, and Qing Su, and couldn’t help his lips twitching.
"Cousin~"
Guilingling raised both hands, swaying like seaweed.
"Hmm, alright, with Cousin’s help, the Southern Continent is surely settled!"
Xuanyuan Huangdi responded with a broad smile, casually grabbing Li Ping’an by the neck, and cursed at him through sound transmission:
"Are you really going to solve the great calamity of the Human Race, not taking the opportunity to get closer with your master?"
Li Ping’an transmitted back, earnestly: "What do you take for? My master is pure and virtuous; don’t say things like that, senior brother."
"Alright, alright, having two ladies is purely a burden."
Xuanyuan Huangdi didn’t hound Li Ping’an further, rely said:
"The two of us brothers going to the Southern Continent and slaughtering everywhere, how exhilarating that would be!
"Forget it, follow ; I’ve already secretly sent a ssage to the Left Attendant Leader, instructing her to wait in the Holy Mother Palace."
"Senior brother, let’s keep a low profile, try not to let others know we’re heading to the Southern Continent."
"How to keep it low-key?"
Li Ping’an turned his head to look at Guilingling, who couldn’t help but tilt her head.
A mont later, Guilingling had an Ice Blue necklace on her neck, a golden sword in her hand, a jade pendant on her waist, and was riding a cloud towards the Holy Mother Palace.
