Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 1278 - 1277: This Is Not Something You Should Know
Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277: This Is Not Something You Should Know
"Great Bean Dynasty?"
Yu Qian couldn’t help but be puzzled in his heart. What exactly was the Great Bean Dynasty? The name didn’t even sound like a major power.
He looked to his two colleagues, both of whom shook their heads; they had never heard of the Great Bean Dynasty.
"Are you sure it’s called the Great Bean Dynasty?"
Seeing Yu Qian’s reaction, the Emperor also had his doubts. Recalling what Lu Yang had said, he had indeed mentioned "our Great Bean Dynasty."
The Emperor said they were a vassal of the Great Bean Dynasty, worrying that the divine beings would look down on them as mere posturing, brandishing the tiger’s skin as a flag.
But how could it be that the other party seemed to have never heard of the Great Bean Dynasty?
Now that the words had been spoken, it was too late to take them back.
Yu Qian noticed the Emperor’s expression and sensed there were untold reasons, "Speak freely; there is no harm."
The Emperor broke into a cold sweat on his forehead, not knowing how to reply, "Immortal, please don’t ask any further."
...
"The White Horse Dynasty said they are a vassal of the Great Bean Dynasty?" When Yu Qian reported this, Emperor Xia was as shocked as if he had seen a ghost.
Yu Qian was able to find the White Horse Dynasty because Lu Yang had told him. Now, the White Horse Dynasty claimed they were a vassal of the Great Bean Dynasty; it was clear that this was Lu Yang’s doing.
How could Lu Yang act so quickly? It hadn’t even been a day since the seal was lifted, and he had already aligned the outer world forces under the Great Bean Dynasty?
Emperor Xia remembered the masters of Great Xia, Buddha Country, Demon Territory, East Sea, and the Extreme Northern Lands and how they were all subjects of the Great Bean Dynasty. He chuckled self-mockingly, murmuring softly, "Indeed, where in this world isn’t part of the Great Bean Dynasty?"
"Your Majesty, what exactly is this Great Bean Dynasty?"
Yu Qian’s heart skipped a beat. His Majesty spoke softly, but Yu Qian’s senses at the Body Integration Realm were sharp enough to catch every word clearly.
"Stop asking, this is not for you to know." Emperor Xia’s face darkened slightly as he dismissed Yu Qian.
Of course, he could not divulge the matters of the Great Bean Dynasty. How could he say that besides himself, all others in the Great Bean Dynasty started as Semi-Immortals, while he was the only one at the Spirit Transformation Stage?
Such an admission would be a loss of all dignity.
Yu Qian was even more shocked. Just what was this Great Bean Dynasty? Even his Majesty was tight-lipped about it, touching on a taboo, unwilling to discuss further.
If such a powerful force existed, why had he never heard of it before?
Suddenly, Yu Qian thought of the existence of the Heavenly Court. Before the Heavenly Court Sect had made its appearance, who knew that such an enormous entity existed in Ancient Times?
Could it be that the Great Bean Dynasty was a terrifying existence comparable to the Heavenly Court, lurking in the shadows?
When His Majesty said that the whole world was the Great Bean Dynasty’s, did it mean that Great Xia was part of it too?
The warm sunlight streamed into the Daming Hall, yet it cast a shadow in Emperor Xia’s eyes. Yu Qian shivered, feeling an eerie chill in Daming Hall.
Yu Qian retreated and left the Daming Hall, leaving Emperor Xia alone.
Emperor Xia wasn’t aware of Yu Qian’s reaction. He was pondering whether there was a deeper meaning behind the White Horse Dynasty being a vassal of the Great Bean Dynasty.
Emperor Xia was uncertain and wanted to consult the ancient ancestors, but they had gone beyond the realm, and it would certainly be some time before their return.
He could only rely on his own thoughts.
"The White Horse Dynasty is far too weak. Even the weakest of cities could overpower them. With such a disparity in strength, it’s hard to assure that White Horse Dynasty would be treated as an equal."
"Now that the White Horse Dynasty has become a vassal of the Great Bean Dynasty, and the countries of the Great Xia Buddha Country are nonetheless vassals of Great Xia."
"Lu Yang has given us a reason to treat the White Horse Dynasty equally and without bullying, or is this a warning?"
"Perhaps this is not Lu Yang’s intention, but the will of that primeval first Immortal behind him!"
Emperor Xia marveled at the wisdom of Fairy Eternity, truly deserving the title of the greatest Immortal from Ancient Times. After a brief encounter with the White Horse Dynasty, he had thought of this method.
Moreover, the White Horse Dynasty was not averse to becoming a vassal.
"With such maneuvering, I am indeed less capable." Although people praise Emperor Xia as the once-in-an-eternity Emperor, and he believes he lives up to that reputation.
But compared to Emperor Dou, he falls far short.
"We still need to inform the Demon Emperor and the others about this." Emperor Xia wrote four identical secret letters.
They, the five speakers, had made an agreement during the meeting that important intelligence discovered during their exploration of the outside world should be shared.
The secret letters contained not only the information about the White Horse Dynasty but also Emperor Xia’s speculations.
Emperor Xia felt that if he didn’t write down his speculations, Zhu Tian and the others wouldn’t be able to see through this point.
...
"Senior Yu Qian must have already registered the White Horse Dynasty, right?"
Lu Yang flew through the universe, which was vast and intriguing with asteroids passing by now and then, and he no longer dwelt on the matters of the White Horse Dynasty.
When he sent those in the Body Integration Realm back home, the powers they belonged to had already learned about the existence of the White Horse Dynasty.
Since all the major forces were aware, no cultivator would dare to have designs on the White Horse Dynasty.
As for the issue of rising sea levels in the White Horse Dynasty, there were plenty of cultivators in the Cultivation World capable of resolving it.
"Is this the Calamity Star?"
Lu Yang found the star that Daoist Sui Han had shot and exploded with an arrow.
He came to wrap up for Daoist Sui Han, who could create the South and North Poles, but was unable to restore the Calamity Star.
"Fortunately, there was no one on the Calamity Star."
Immortal Fairy Eternity yawned and flew out of the Spiritual Space: "Of course, there wouldn’t be anyone. Do you think life-bearing stars are common? During Ancient Times, perhaps one in tens of thousands of stars harbored life, and the number must be even less now."
"Do we need to use the Dao Fruit Outline to restore the star?"
"Let’s give it a try."
Lu Yang rubbed his hands together excitedly. Theoretically, using the Dao Fruit Outline to restore a star was possible, but it was uncertain in practice. The Calamity Star had a radius of ten thousand miles, bigger even than the White Horse Star.
The Calamity Star was blown to bits by Daoist Sui Han, countless fragments turned into meteors flying in all directions, leaving behind only a Star Core and the Earth Core clinging to it.
Lu Yang activated the Trace Origin Dao Fruit Prototype, connecting his thoughts to the Star Core, achieving a delicate balance.
"Trace Origin!"
The Star Core generated a kind of suction force. At first, the nearby fragments sensed it and reattached themselves to the Star Core, followed by the meteors that had flown off in all directions. They flew back in reverse, returning to their original places.
Like a jigsaw puzzle, they gradually formed the shape it was meant to be.
Finally, the cracks on the surface of the Calamity Star closed up, and nobody could tell that the star had ever exploded.
"We did it!" Lu Yang was overjoyed, unexpectedly smooth, and it hadn’t consumed much spiritual essence.
"Little Yang is impressive." Immortal Fairy Eternity clapped her hands in applause.
"Let’s go, continue to find stars that harbor life." Lu Yang waved his hand grandly, directing his way forward.
He felt more powerful than ever before, like he could do anything.
Ten days flashed by in the blink of an eye.
"Why haven’t we come across any life-bearing stars after flying for so long?" Lu Yang’s spirit, once high and mighty, waned, thinking he would quickly find another White Horse Star, but it now seemed he was too optimistic.
Immortal Fairy Eternity was not surprised: "I told you, life-bearing stars are rare, not even one in tens of millions."
"Besides, you’re flying slowly, it’s definitely going to take a while to find one."
Hearing Immortal Fairy Eternity say this, Lu Yang regretted not following Eldest Senior Sister and choosing to explore alone.
Among this first batch of explorers, Ao Ling, Jiang Lianyi, Jin Caiwei were with the Qilin Immortal, Old Meng with Meng Junzi, and Sister Mengmeng with Eldest Senior Sister—all following Immortal beings, who surely flew faster than he did.
In contrast, he was alone, without support.
Lu Yang’s gaze fell on Immortal Fairy Eternity, who was spinning around, amusing herself.
Oh, wrong, there was also an Immortal accompanying him, but she wasn’t much use.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Immortal Fairy Eternity felt Little Yang’s gaze was disrespectful to an Immortal; with such a beautiful Immortal as herself for company, he should be secretly delighted.
