Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 1405 - 1403: The Hearts of Human and Demon Immortals Are All Stirred

Chapter 1405 -1403: The Hearts of Human and Demon Immortals Are All Stirred

In the Mortal World, Chang’an City.

Recently, the entire Tang Dynasty has been very quiet, giving people an oppressive feeling of a storm brewing over the pavilion!

Since Li Shimin’s prayer to the heavens, proclaiming that the Human Clan would no longer heed the Jade Emperor’s governance, nearly a fortnight has passed!

During this nearly half-month, the civil and military officials of the Great Tang have felt as if a blade is hanging above their heads, ready to drop at any moment!

This feeling can nearly drive a person insane.

If you think about it, if there’s a place within the Great Tang that suddenly declares itself a new nation, no longer under the control of the Great Tang Imperial Court, how would the court respond?

Naturally, they would take direct action and suppress the rebellion, right?

Thus, putting oneself in another’s shoes, now that the Human Clan has declared to the heavens that they are no longer under the Jade Emperor’s rule, would the Jade Emperor not take action?

Although it appears peaceful recently, with no movement from the Heavenly Court!

But the quieter it is, the more the civil and military officials of the Great Tang feel uneasy!

Because, the Jade Emperor’s action is certain, and the longer this waiting period, it indicates the more prepared he is, right?

And this, further illustrates the Jade Emperor’s resolve!

“Father, don’t worry…”

On this day, even as Li Shimin was reviewing memorials, he was somewhat absent-minded, feeling a heaviness in his heart, when suddenly, Princess Gaoyang’s voice sounded.

Hearing this, Li Shimin looked towards the voice, only to see Princess Gaoyang approaching with a calm demeanor.

“Oh? What do you mean by this?” Hearing Gaoyang’s words, Li Shimin asked in surprise.

“Jiang Liu and I already have a plan, and we are preparing to take a trip to the Immortal Realm!” Gaoyang replied.

“To the Immortal Realm? The relationship between you and the Jade Emperor is nearly like water and fire; for what purpose are you going to the Immortal Realm?” Upon hearing this, a trace of worry appeared on Li Shimin’s face.

“To assassinate the Jade Emperor!” Gaoyang spoke directly of her goal without wasting words.

“Assassinate the Jade Emperor!?” Li Shimin’s face involuntarily changed upon hearing this!

Unexpectedly, the goal Gaoyang spoke of was this.

“Yes, with Jiang Liu and I joining forces, plus the collaboration of the Demon Master of the Ancient Demon Clan, barring any surprises, the Jade Emperor will surely die!” Gaoyang nodded.

Of course, she left unsaid the latter half of her words—that with the Jade Emperor dead, the Human Clan would naturally no longer need to worry about suppression from the Heavenly Court, and surely the Heavenly Court would fall into chaos first.

“This…” Li Shimin understood Gaoyang’s meaning; indeed, if they could assassinate the Jade Emperor, it would greatly alleviate the Human Clan’s crisis!

Even taking the opportunity to reestablish the Human Emperor is possible!

However, after a brief silence, Li Shimin still had some concerns and said, “After all, he is the Jade Emperor, the master of the Three Realms. Are you truly confident in killing him?”

“According to our calculations, the success rate should be ninety percent!” Hearing this, Gaoyang nodded seriously in affirmation.

Alright, Li Shimin knew Gaoyang would not deceive him in such matters, and therefore, since she said so, it must be true.

After a silent moment, Li Shimin’s expression was filled with sighs of sentiment, saying, “I never thought, in the blink of an eye, eleven years have passed!”

Hearing her father’s words, Gaoyang’s expression also softened significantly!

Indeed, in the blink of an eye, eleven years have passed!

She clearly remembers, eleven years ago, she was still a young girl. At that time, not to mention the Jade Emperor, even a mere small fry like the Dragon Subduing Arhat forced her father to bow his head.

In the blink of an eye, eleven years have passed, and the changes are truly tremendous!

The most important thing is the changes in status and power, which have undergone revolutionary changes!

The Dragon Subduing Arhat, who seemed invincible back then, is now just a slightly bigger ant!

Now the target she must deal with has switched to an existence like the Great Jade Emperor.

“Alright, it’s getting late, Father, I’m off to the Immortal Realm!” After the father and daughter reminisced about the past years, and sighed for a while, Gaoyang collected her thoughts and spoke.

“Mm, off you go!” Hearing this, Li Shimin seriously nodded in response.

But, watching Gaoyang’s departing figure, Li Shimin, after a brief moment of silence, still couldn’t help but shout, “Gaoyang, you and Jiang Liu must be careful!”

“Understood, Father!” Knowing well the care in her father’s words, Gaoyang nodded in response!

Then, with a swift motion, she left the Imperial Palace headed towards the Immortal Realm.

The Heavenly Court, situated within the Immortal Realm, naturally requires passing through the South Heavenly Gate to enter.

However, if just entering the Immortal Realm without reaching the Heavenly Court, passing through the South Heavenly Gate is unnecessary!

Upon reaching the Immortal Realm, according to the predetermined location, Gaoyang flew towards a secluded Immortal Mountain within the realm!

About an hour later, she arrived at an Immortal Mountain floating in mid-air!

At this moment, Jiang Liu and Kunpeng were already waiting inside the Immortal Mountain.

“Senior, has the space-sealing formation been set up?” Jiang Liu, who also just arrived, asked Kunpeng.

“I’ve been preparing here for so long. If the formation is activated, it can completely seal the space around the entire Immortal Mountain, covering dozens of miles. Even the Jade Emperor would have no hope of breaking this sealed space in less than an hour!”

Hearing Jiang Liu’s inquiry, Demon Master Kunpeng nodded, almost patting his chest to guarantee it.

And upon hearing Kunpeng’s words, both Jiang Liu and Gaoyang felt much relieved.

The Jade Emperor would need an hour to break through, which naturally no one was going to give him.

“Since everything is ready, shall we proceed?” asked Jiang Liu as everything was set.

“Alright, let’s begin!” Gaoyang and Demon Master Kunpeng both nodded in agreement.

Beside them, even the soul of Master Wuchao nodded heavily.

On the surface, it appeared that Jiang Liu, Gaoyang, and Kunpeng were dealing with the Jade Emperor!

However, if they first use the Fusang Divine Tree to recall Master Wuchao’s corpse, then naturally, he would be given a fortified Soul-Returning Pill first!

When Master Wuchao comes back to life, naturally, they will add a quasi-saint level of strength!

With the four of them joining forces against the Jade Emperor, there is no reason for failure.

Once everyone was ready, Jiang Liu wasted no more words and took out the Fusang Divine Tree from his spatial pouch!

Then, according to the guidance of Master Wuchao, he infused his power into the Fusang Divine Tree.

With a boom!

The Fusang Divine Tree inserted into the ground suddenly burst into golden flames, the power of the True Sun Fire!

The Golden Crow resides within the Fusang Divine Tree, and the True Sun Fire had long been fully integrated within it, indistinguishable from one another!

Meanwhile, in the Lingxiao Hall, the Jade Emperor sat on his throne, looking down at a divine general reporting on the deployment of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals!

The Heavenly Court naturally planned to mobilize the army against the humans to suppress the rebellion, following their declaration of autonomy.

Buzz!

However, at that moment, the Jade Emperor’s expression changed slightly, sensing something amiss.

All the Immortal Gods in the Lingxiao Hall naturally noticed the change in the Jade Emperor’s expression, exchanging puzzled glances.

Soon, in the void, a corpse appeared; it was the corpse of a three-legged Golden Crow!

Then, golden True Sun Fire ignited on the corpse, and it flew out of the Lingxiao Hall.

“The corpse of a three-legged Golden Crow? That’s Master Wuchao!?” The sudden appearance of the corpse startled the Immortal Gods in the Lingxiao Hall, then they reacted.

Recently, Master Wuchao’s demise had caused heavenly anomalies, something everyone knew!

But who was behind Master Wuchao’s death was unknown!

Now, seeing Master Wuchao’s corpse in the Lingxiao Hall caused an uproar.

Regardless of the uproar among these deities, seeing the Golden Crow corpse, which he had stored, flying out of the hall, the Jade Emperor couldn’t sit still!

His form flickered as he chased after it.

With the Jade Emperor gone, naturally, the other deities in the Lingxiao Hall felt less restrained, and discussions erupted.

Could it be Master Wuchao died at the hands of His Majesty the Jade Emperor?

Who could have anticipated such a thing!?

Meanwhile, another group of deities in the Lingxiao Hall looked very grim!

Those like Kuimu Wolf, of demon clan descent who became immortals, wore troubled expressions.

They hadn’t expected that the last crown prince of the demon clan, Master Wuchao, would fall under the Jade Emperor’s hand?

At this moment, these beings of demon ancestry only felt a wave of sorrow in their hearts.

Similarly, another group in the Heavenly Court, immortals who ascended from the human clan, like the Eight Immortals, weren’t pleased!

It’s not the matter of Master Wuchao concerning them, but the fact that the Jade Emperor was mobilizing against the humans.

The Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court were generally ennobled during the Deification War, and naturally, many of these ennobled were of the human clan!

Now that humans announced their autonomy, and the Heavenly Court wanted to wage war on them, the ennobled human gods naturally felt displeased!

Mobilizing against humans saddens the human immortal beings! 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Now, the demise of Master Wuchao at the hands of the Jade Emperor also made the demon immortal beings uneasy.

Adding to the previous loss of the God-Beating Whip…

The current Immortal Realm could be described as precarious and turbulent.

Let’s leave aside the thoughts of the deities in the Lingxiao Hall for now!

Chasing the corpse of the three-legged Golden Crow, the Jade Emperor flew ahead with a solemn face.

What’s happening? How did this corpse of the three-legged Golden Crow suddenly start moving on its own? Where is it flying to?

The corpse’s speed was remarkably fast, but the Jade Emperor was not slow either!

In just a quarter-hour, the corpse of the three-legged Golden Crow entered an Immortal Mountain in the Immortal Realm!

In the mountain stood a Fusang Divine Tree! The corpse of the three-legged Golden Crow landed on this Fusang Divine Tree.

“Sandalwood Merit Buddha!?”

Following the corpse of the three-legged Golden Crow, seeing the figure standing beside the Fusang Divine Tree, the Jade Emperor’s face turned dark as he spoke.
