Chapter 179: A Reminder!

"Pardon, appeasement—all of that is fine. I don't even need this Fairy. However, there is one thing I need you two to help with: take care of those people for me. I have matters to attend to, so I shall take my leave first. Remember to resolve it cleanly and thoroughly; do not leave any lingering troubles to give me a headache. If you give me a headache, the consequences will give you an even greater one."

Having said this, Zhao Changsheng vanished without a trace, as if no one knew whether he had ever been there. His words just now felt like they had been spoken by a ghost. This scene turned Old Monster Bai's Face pale with fright, for just now, he had felt the emergence of spatial power.

One must realize that even as a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, he did not possess such an ability to manipulate spatial power at will.

According to records in ancient texts, this was an ability only possessed by Mahayana Stage Cultivators or even True Immortals.

Suddenly recalling the various Divine Abilities and methods Zhao Changsheng possessed, Old Monster Bai's expression became even more unsightly. He even felt a hint of regret for coming to this Tiannan Cultivation World.

After leaving Demon Fall Valley, Zhao Changsheng found Lin Yinping. He did not hide anything that had transpired within the valley and informed her of everything.

"Husband, are you not worried that the Fairy from Great Jin is truly a descendant of a Senior from the Spirit Realm?"

After hearing Zhao Changsheng's account, Lin Yinping asked back with some concern. After all, this matter was truly terrifying; had Zhao Changsheng's strength been even slightly lacking, he might have fallen directly.

"Even if she is a descendant of a Spirit Realm Senior, so what? The price to connect the Spirit Realm and the Mortal Realm is far too great; it is not something an ordinary Spirit Realm Senior can achieve. Even if they could, why would they travel to the Mortal Realm for an ordinary descendant—an offspring left behind countless years ago—just to handle such a trivial matter?"

"He is no fool, so how could he do such a thing? Thus, you need not worry about this. Furthermore, the current situation in the Mortal Realm is not optimistic, making it even less likely. I just don't know how to successfully achieve a Breakthrough yet. Although the gains this time weren't small, I didn't find that garden."

"This is what gives me the biggest headache. However, while it is a headache, it isn't without a solution. I can just find another Opportunity to enter in the future. But for now, I need to discipline the whole of Tiannan again. If I don't, I fear even more fellows will think I'm dead, or that I'm no longer fearsome, and think my Cultivation Empire could be destroyed at any moment."

"Since that's the case, I will make them understand that since I dared to establish this Cultivation Empire, it proves I have the strength to hold it. I'll make them stop playing tricks. If they felt their own abilities were sufficient, that would be one thing, but unfortunately, they lack the ability and strength, yet are self-righteous to the extreme. Old Devil Hehuan's instigation last time was potent, but it doesn't mean everyone would fall for it. Anyone with half a brain wouldn't have. Since they've lost their brains, there's no need for them to remain."

Zhao Changsheng spoke with a voice that suppressed his rage; one could imagine just how incensed he was currently.

"If you do that, the strength of the Tiannan Cultivation World will be greatly reduced. Although I am a Cultivator from the Plains, I do not wish for Tiannan to suffer too many losses. After all, both the Plains and Tiannan will be part of the Cultivation Empire in the future."

"Enough, I will naturally handle this matter. It doesn't matter if some Cultivators are lost; to me, they are not important. There will always be more Nascent Soul Cultivators. The key is that they must not affect the Cultivation Empire I've established. No one is permitted to interfere with this. Whoever interferes, I will take their life. No matter who it is, if they affect this matter, they shouldn't expect an easy time. I am confident in this much."

"I only hope the remaining fellows can show a bit of sense and stop doing stupid things that provoke me. Doing something stupid once is fine, but if done too often, it will likely cost them their lives. In fact, if they do it one more time, they really will die; I certainly won't let them off easily. For me, letting them off is simply an impossibility."

"Alright, go and rest for now. In a moment, I must meet two distinguished guests. I need to have a good talk with them. It wouldn't be good if we didn't talk."

Lin Yinping nodded at Zhao Changsheng's words, raising no objections, and left his embrace.

After Lin Yinping left, the two distinguished guests Zhao Changsheng mentioned arrived as expected. They were the previous Old Monster Bai and the Fairy who was the descendant from the Spirit Realm.

But now, this Fairy was scared half to death. She absolutely did not dare to come, yet she had to, because she knew very well that her life was entirely at Old Zhao's whim. If she wanted to live, it all depended on Zhao Changsheng's mood.

"Please, both of you, sit. We can talk slowly; there's no need to be so restrained. If you both feel uncomfortable here, you can leave at any time. I won't have any objections."

"I'll trouble you two to inform me of the current situation of the Cultivation World in your region. I also want to hear what level your Cultivation World has reached and whether it is suitable for me to completely unify it. This is very important to me, as I'm sure you both understand. However, for you two to resolve those fellows so quickly was quite an achievement. So, please explain the information I want to know clearly, to save me the trouble of investigating myself."

"If you two don't explain clearly, then don't blame me for being impolite. Of course, I won't be impolite right now because I don't know the situation there, but when I have time, I will naturally pay a visit."

"After all, there is a big problem there that I need to solve. Not solving it wouldn't be good for me, nor for the entire Mortal Realm. For the sake of the Mortal Realm, I have no choice. Just as I told the Fairy before, I want to protect the peace of the entire Mortal Realm and collectively create a beautiful Cultivation World. Unfortunately, this Fairy didn't seem to appreciate it, but that's fine; it's nothing to me. If there are issues, I will let you know; if not, please don't waste words. Of course, I know you might think I'm talking too much right now, but that's fine."

"I'm just a bit long-winded when I speak. It's no big deal, at most it wastes a little time, which is also no big deal."

"I'm doing this to explain the situation clearly to you both, and I hope you can understand this. I hope you can be a bit more understanding and not do anything untoward. I truly have your best interests at heart."

"What Fellow Daoist says is absolutely right. We understand and empathize."

"It's good that you understand. If you understand, I can be at ease. If you didn't, it would be a truly regrettable thing. Actually, sometimes I don't understand why you both insisted on making trouble for me. To be precise, why did you come looking for me? Couldn't you just Cultivate properly on your own? Do you truly believe I possess some secret to Ascension?"

"Fellow Daoist must be joking; we absolutely had no such intention."

Old Monster Bai immediately spoke up to refute, because he knew very well that if he said yes, he would certainly be doomed.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, there's no need to be so nervous. Actually, it's not wrong for you to think that way. I do indeed have the secret to Ascension. Didn't I give it to you earlier? If not for that item, how could you have helped me? Don't you agree? Isn't that right? So your guess was correct. However, I also hope you can make the right choice and not make such a wrong one again. If you want to ascend, I can help you, but whether you can succeed depends on your luck. If your luck is good, you can naturally succeed in Ascension. If your luck is bad, you can only perish within space. I'm sure you know this well."

"Sigh, there's no helping it; this is the only way out. Aside from this path, there is no other way to live. Actually, I'm quite helpless because despite doing so much, I'm still not understood. Instead, I'm seen as ambitious and possessing many Opportunities, thinking that if I'm killed, the benefits to be gained would be countless. I'm far too used to this and have experienced it too much, yet I didn't expect that after all this time, I still can't deter everyone. Tell me, am I particularly foolish, particularly useless? I feel I am quite useless. But none of that is a problem, not a big problem at all, completely no problem. Don't you agree? I think that's exactly how it is."

"Alright, I've said all I need to say. Next, tell me about the current situation of the Great Jin Cultivation World. I might have to make a trip there in a while, as there are many things I need to resolve."

"I presume you won't try to stop me? If you do, then I can only say one thing: you won't be far from death."

Zhao Changsheng's threat-filled words caused Old Monster Bai to give a bitter laugh in his heart. Although he still wanted to stop him, Zhao Changsheng had already voiced the threat. If he were to interfere now, it would be truly failing to give Zhao Changsheng Face. Under these circumstances, how would he dare not give Zhao Changsheng Face? He didn't want to die.

It was precisely because he wanted to live that he had come to the Tiannan Cultivation World, yet he hadn't expected Zhao Changsheng to be so powerful. It truly exceeded his expectations and imagination. In this situation, he could only honestly recount the state of the Great Jin Cultivation World in full detail.

The woman beside him also added quite a bit. Under these circumstances, Zhao Changsheng gained a detailed understanding of the Great Jin Cultivation World, the number one Cultivation Holy Land of the Mortal Realm. Simply put, it was similar to what he knew, just more detailed.

The Righteous Path and the Demonic Path still held sway over the entire Great Jin Cultivation World, while the Imperial Family was merely a Puppet they had propped up.

"You probably don't know yet, but this Imperial Family—this Ye Clan—has already begun to take action, wanting to escape your control. Moreover, their target is precisely the legendary Kunwu Mountain. You should be very clear on how important this place is to the entire Mortal Realm; I needn't say more. Furthermore, they have left behind quite a few backup plans. Thus, you had better be prepared. If any error occurs, if anything happens to this place, it will be a disaster for the entire Mortal Realm—a cataclysmic one. So, the first thing you must do upon your return is to discipline this Ye Clan. Don't wipe them out yet; ask them how far they have progressed. If possible, you can even help them, because I need Kunwu Mountain to be opened. If it isn't, I won't be able to achieve what I need to do."

"So this Ye Clan still has some use. Just discipline them for now. The specifics will depend on their luck and ability. If their luck is good, there naturally won't be any problem. If their luck is bad, it can only be said they were unfortunate; nothing else can be said."

"I just wonder how long they can hold out. I hope they hold out for a bit longer and don't do anything bad. If they do, don't blame me for being impolite."

"How does Fellow Daoist know about the matters of the Ye Clan?"

Zhao Changsheng's words caused the woman to be the first to question him, because Zhao Changsheng simply knew too much.

The Ye Clan might have been somewhat careless, but since Zhao Changsheng clearly knew all this, why did he still ask them?

"That is not for you to concern yourself with, Fairy. Just do as I say. As for how I know, what does it have to do with you? It has nothing to do with you. I just wanted you to tell me; to be precise, I wanted to see if there was any difference between what you know and what I know, and if someone was deceiving me. If someone deceives me, I likewise will not be polite to them. I might even kill them directly and then cut them into a thousand pieces. This is not a difficult task for me, as I'm sure you both realize. However, what you two said is similar to what I knew, without much difference, just more detailed. Very good; I am very satisfied with what you've done. This is the item you came for; I cannot fail to give you a reward. These things will serve as your compensation. But remember, this matter must not be easily disclosed to anyone. Otherwise, you should know the consequences better than I. I can deal with you, and it will be in a most inhuman manner."
