Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation

Chapter 490: Abandoned by All



Many officials from the Immortal Court looked at Ji Changsi as if he were an idiot. The Great Emperor and Ding Huan's greetings were because they were not afraid of Emperor Wushang.

Yet, you, an Immortal Sect Master who fled from the Great Immortal Domain, also dare to take the initiative to befriend Ding Huan. Even if there's no trouble here, once Ding Huan has left, you'll be the first one Emperor Wushang will settle accounts with.

"Thank you, Sect Master Ji," Ding Huan hurried to express his thanks.

He was also somewhat speechless inside.

In fact, he understood clearly why Ji Changsi wanted to stand out and pick sides; Ji Changsi was somewhat righteous but also a gambler.

He saw that he and Xing Pan had come to the Immortal Court, and there seemed to be a bunch of bigwigs in the Immortal Court who appeared to support Xing Pan, suggesting that the Immortal Court Emperor might be changed.

Another possibility was that Ji Changsi had too much involvement with him. Even if Ji Changsi didn't stand out now, once he left, this guy would probably be cleaned up by Emperor Wushang.

This guy saw things very clearly and might as well take a desperate gamble now for a chance at a better future.

But he genuinely hadn't planned on helping Xing Pan reclaim the Heavenly Emperor's Position and then lead everyone to take back the Great Immortal Domain.

And right now, he couldn't even say it.

"Xing Pan, don't you know we're negotiating how to repel the demon and Demon Race?" Emperor Wushang knew all too well that being an outsider was at a complete disadvantage.

Even though he hadn't acted against Xing Pan in the past, there were still many people who were displeased with him.

Ding Huan scoffed, "Wushang, your words are so righteous, but you want to offer women to the Alien Clan to beg for mercy. Is this the solution you've negotiated? You're doing a really poor job as an emperor; it's better that you don't."

Emperor Wushang glared at Ding Huan, regretting that he did not forcefully take Ding Huan away last time: "Ding Huan, you, a mere Loose Cultivator, have no right to make noise here."

Ding Huan said indifferently, "I admit you're the Heavenly Emperor, and you have the right to say that. I don't acknowledge you as the Heavenly Emperor. What are you even?"

After speaking, Ding Huan stepped on the glabella of Wu Wudu, who lay on the ground: "Tell me, where did you confine the girl from the Yaochi Jade Maiden Sect?"

Wu Wudu struggled and said, "Let me go, and I'll tell you."

"Then don't bother, I'll just Soul Search." As soon as Ding Huan finished speaking, a wild blast of Divine Will charged directly into Wu Wudu's Sea of Consciousness.

"I'll talk! In my world," Wu Wudu blurted out, helplessly.

Ding Huan raised his hand to snatch Wu Wudu's ring, which was yet another from the True Spirit World.

The prohibition on Wu Wudu's ring was a seventh-level Immortal Restriction, which Ding Huan directly shattered through brute force.

Fifteen minutes later, the prohibition on Wu Wudu's ring was torn apart by Ding Huan, and with a wave of his hand, a woman appeared on the ground.

Ding Huan frowned, "Why is it you? Where's Wen Zhixi?"

He had not expected the woman who came out to be Hua Xiaoqian.

He wasn't very fond of this woman.

Confused by the situation, Hua Xiaoqian heard Ji Changsi hurriedly explain on the side, "Elder Hua, Mr. Ding is asking if your friend Wen Zhixi is with you?"

Hua Xiaoqian had already realized that this should be the Treasure Hall of the Immortal Court. She had heard about this place but was appearing in such an upscale location for the first time.

Then she saw Ding Huan and Wu Wudu lying on the ground, bloodied and half-dead.

Had she been rescued? Had Wu Wudu been taken down?

No matter what the cause, Hua Xiaoqian hurriedly said, "Zhixi left early; I don't know where she went."

Ding Huan frowned.

Having sobered up a bit, Hua Xiaoqian explained hastily, "It was because Wu Wudu knew that our Yaochi Jade Maiden Sect had an Immortal Spirit Body, so he captured me to help him find Zhixi.

He said—for the safety of the Immortal Court—it was unavoidable to sacrifice one person."

"Is that so?" Ding Huan sighed in relief, seeing that it seemed Wen Zhixi had entered the Chaos Zone and wasn't caught.

With difficulty, Wu Wudu responded with a grunt, and Ding Huan's foot pulsed with Dao Rhythm, and in the next moment, Wu Wudu's life force was torn apart by Ding Huan's foot.

Immediately, a bundle of Law Flame enveloped Wu Wudu. Without even a chance to beg for mercy, he disintegrated into nothingness.

The Treasure Hall of the Immortal Court fell silent.

Ding Huan was so merciless; he killed a Star Lord without hesitation.

"Brother Ding Huan, how about we take this opportunity to wipe out the Demon Race and the Demon Clan and reclaim the Great Immortal Domain?" Xing Pan rubbed his hands, looking some embarrassed at Ding Huan.

He was intent on having the Human Tribe dominate the Pangu Great World, but he knew Ding Huan had little interest in the matter.

Now he realized that by seizing his Heavenly Emperor's Position, Emperor Wushang hadn't gained control of the Immortal Court.

Though these people in the Immortal Court were here physically, they each had their plans.

The Taoist Ancestor had forcefully made Wushang the Heavenly Emperor, but he didn't have the time to linger here to help Emperor Wushang stabilize his position.

After the Taoist Ancestor left, Emperor Wushang could only use soft measures, coming up with the laughable Nine Court Immortal Law to maintain the dignity of the Immortal Court,

Xing Pan had seen the weakness of Emperor Wushang and simply decided to take this opportunity to quickly eliminate those races that had overrun the Great Immortal Domain.

Ding Huan pondered for a moment as well.

If he left today, he would be fine, but Emperor Wushang would retaliatively deal with everyone he knew, even Emperor Ping Wei wouldn't be spared.

This was also the reason why Ji Changsi decided to take sides: he had a way out, but others did not.

Here, Ding Huan spoke aloud, "The Great Immortal Domain has always been a part of the Immortal Court, yet Emperor Wushang has been indolent and unworthy of the Heavenly Emperor's position.

He witnessed the Great Immortal Domain being eroded by the Alien Clan and saw many Human Clan Cultivators being slaughtered without even blinking an eye, and yet, he still wastes time here over some Immortal Spirit Rice.

How disheartening it is for us, being of the same Human Tribe, to be so indifferent and selfish?

I nominate Emperor Xing Pan for Heavenly Emperor, to lead us in the attack against the Alien Clan. If you are willing to join us in the fight against the Alien Clan and reclaim the Great Immortal Domain, please stand up now."

Xing Pan was not skilled in such tactics, but Ding Huan was adept indeed.

"I am willing…" The first voice of agreement came from the group of Immortal Sect Masters in the Great Immortal Domain.

They had nowhere to go in the Immortal Court; it's true that the territory of the Immortal Court was vast, but it was not theirs.

Every inch of this land had its master.

"We all are willing." These Immortal Sect Masters quickly formed a force and stood up in a very short time.

Before, when Ding Huan had not made his stance clear, they dared not take a position, because if Ding Huan left, they would surely be doomed.

Now that Ding Huan had actively promoted Emperor Xing Pan, what hesitation could they have?

Just by looking at the attitudes of the cultivators in the Immortal Court Palace, it was clear that Emperor Xing Pan was more popular than Emperor Wushang.

"Ha ha, I, Pei Yishui, support Emperor Xing Pan for Heavenly Emperor." The first to stand out was the Northern Taoist, Pei Yishui.

The Southern Taoist, Ju Feihe, was just a step behind and quickly stood up to express his stance as well.

Previously, he did not realize that Xing Pan was with Ding Huan, and even when Ding Huan greeted him, he did not dare to fervently invite him, which made him somewhat regretful.

"I, Ping Wei, naturally follow Brother Xing Pan." Emperor Ping Wei immediately made his position known.

Before, he came to talk to Xing Pan but did not express support for Xing Pan for the Heavenly Emperor's Position, and now his words meant support for Xing Pan for the Heavenly Emperor's Position.

Emperor Jin He followed with his stance: "I have always thought that Brother Xing Pan is the number-one choice for the Heavenly Emperor's Position. Sadly, I am too weak alone to make a difference."

"I, Bu Yue, support Emperor Xing Pan for Heavenly Emperor; I'm sick and tired of these oppressive days."

Hearing Bu Yue make a stand, Ding Huan was stunned.

Wasn't this guy the number one lackey of Emperor Wushang?

If the number one lackey took a stance, then wouldn't Emperor Wushang be left isolated?

Sure enough, seeing Bu Yue stand on the side of Xing Pan, the remaining Star Lords, Taoists, Commanders, and officials from various departments swiftly stood up to support Emperor Xing Pan.

Ding Huan thought it would take a fight to bring Wushang down, even considering which people in the Immortal Court Palace supported Emperor Wushang and which supported Emperor Xing Pan.

He was contemplating whether it would be abrupt to take down Emperor Wushang when they acted.

To his surprise, the matter was so simple.

After he stood up to help Emperor Xing Pan with a call, they all supported Emperor Xing Pan. It was a bit comical.

It was not so much comical as it was that Emperor Wushang, an outsider, had never been acknowledged by the people of the Pangu Great World.

Emperor Wushang's face turned an ashen hue: "Ding Huan, where have I wronged you for you to scheme against me?"

He knew very well that, without Ding Huan, even if Xing Pan came, he would not have been able to make everyone speak for him.

Ding Huan responded with sarcasm: "Me, scheme against you? Do you have any shame? Tell me, what exactly have you done since you've been on the Heavenly Emperor's throne?

When the Alien Clan attacked, your first act was not to strike back at the Alien Clan but to seal off the Immortal Court and hide here, struggling to survive within your small corner.

That aside, you even came up with a self-deceptive Nine Court Immortal Law?

Haha, the Nine Court Immortal Law is so full of unfair laws - you must see it all with your own eyes, right? How did you handle it when Star Lord Chang Yi slaughtered Qianyuan Immortal Manor?

The first time you didn't kill him, you just let him go. And that wasn't enough, the Nine Court Immortal Law was already nonsensical, yet you created an even more nonsensical one, hidden within the Space Law.

What about today? Do you still want to falsify and capture me to grow Immortal Spirit Rice for you? Is your face getting any paler?

Sure, your Mr. Huan can grow Immortal Spirit Rice, but I adamantly refuse to do it for you. What can you do to me?"

Emperor Wushang clenched his fists, his tone as cold as ice: "Ding Huan, do you know who decided on my position as the Heavenly Emperor? It was the Taoist Ancestor. Do you dare to defy the orders of the Taoist Ancestor?"

Ding Huan calmly said, "The Taoist Ancestor has his matters to attend to, and if he knew you've done nothing here for all these years, he'd probably kick you down himself."

Emperor Wushang looked at the people in the Immortal Court Palace, none of whom were willing to meet his gaze and instead lowered their heads.

They were unwilling to die for Emperor Wushang and did not want him to bear them any grudge.

"Very well, I abdicate." Emperor Wushang stood up.

Ding Huan watched Emperor Wushang: "So, you're just going to leave like this?"

"Do you wish to detain me?" Emperor Wushang's killing intent surged, but the next moment, his domain of killing intent was blasted back by Xing Pan's domain.

Ding Huan's eyes twitched slightly.

He clearly sensed that Emperor Wushang had not used even a third of his strength, while Xing Pan had used half.

Which meant that Emperor Wushang's strength was actually higher than Xing Pan's.
