The old man Xueying and the Taoist Three Delicacies were somewhat surprised to find that as they chatted, Wu Wang suddenly changed.

Their eyes became sharp, and their expressions became a bit stern.

With the rich life experience of the two old men, they probably understood what had happened...

Jealousy.

Xueying has always been talking about the romantic stories between Master Wuwang and the women of the various tribes in the Great Wasteland. These stories came from nowhere and had a common feature.

The women in the stories were either exotic princesses or legendary women from different tribes, and their status was not low.

As a young man, Yan Chixia felt a bit aggrieved by Master Wuwang, which was normal.

- However, Wu Wang's eyes suddenly became sharp because he had received a response from the senior Shen Nong.

This time, when Junior Deity of Lifespan took away Lin Qi, the Human Realm would fight to the end, using this as an opportunity to challenge the Heavenly Palace.

In the room, Wu Wang stood up and said, "From what I know, Master Wuwang is still a pure Yang cultivator... I have some things to attend to, so I'll go back to my room first."

With that, he arched his hand and floated away.

Lin Suqing hurriedly followed, and as she left, she smiled at Xueying, "It's well known that Master Wuwang has been practicing in the Human Realm, and he can't even hold the hands of women from different tribes."

Xueying was taken aback and muttered, "Yes, the forces of the Heavenly Palace cannot enter the Human Realm..."

Suqing smiled lightly, turned around, rolled her eyes, pouted, frowned, and hummed lightly in her heart, a whole set of small expressions flowing smoothly.

Wu Wang didn't dare to delay and quickly returned to his residence.

Senior Shen Nong had already given his support, urging him to fight against Deputy Deity of Lifespan and Junior Deity of Lifespan;

Half of it was his own effort, and the other half was bestowed by the Human Realm. He was now sitting on one side of the chessboard, having placed a few pieces.

One decision could lead to heavy casualties among the Transcendents;

One mistake could cause irreparable losses.

Wu Wang didn't like such heavy responsibilities. His consistent principle was "If you don't do it, you won't make mistakes";

But things had come to this.

Things had come to this!

The Heavenly Palace had made great efforts to capture and destroy him. The gods had entered the Human Realm in disguise, and Junior Deity of Lifespan had taken action.

Then the Heavenly Emperor appeared, talking high and mighty, full of order and chaos, but in reality, he was sitting at the top of the established order, enjoying the supreme power above all living beings.

And then there was Mother...

In the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor, Mother had become the swordbearer of the Heavenly Palace, holding the key to destroying the existing order at any time.

But at the same time, the pressure on Mother was immense.

Wu Wang could feel that Mother was also hesitating now, hesitating whether to break the seal of heaven and earth;

She had said several times that the Shenlong divine lineage, compared to the Heavenly Palace, was more brutal, more ruthless, and more unreasonable.

Since that was the case, Wu Wang would prove it to Mother.

Even without destroying the existing order, without summoning the ancient gods back, the living beings still had the strength to fight against the Heavenly Palace!

Of course, it was just a matter of spirit and determination, and it only made him feel uplifted and comfortable.

"If problems could be solved by emotions and determination alone, the Heavenly Palace would have exploded long ago."

At this moment, what Senior Shen Nong wanted to hear was a complete action plan, a sufficient response to various possible situations.

So when Senior Shen Nong asked, "How do you plan to proceed?"

Wu Wang immediately replied, "The current plan remains unchanged, using the dismantlable and reconfigurable teleportation array for a surprise attack, but we need to consider more aspects now.

Search bit.ly/3iBfjkV for the original.

And I also need a general to help me wholeheartedly, preferably without reservation."

"Who?"

"Lin Nuhao," Wu Wang said, "No matter how deep this general's city is, he actually has no reservations about his son."

Shen Nong said slowly, "The more this is the case, the more we should avoid direct intervention by close people, to avoid disobedience and disrespect, and to avoid affecting the overall situation."

Wu Wang said, "Your Majesty doesn't trust General Lin?"

Shen Nong said, "Lin Nuhao was also a young man I had assessed before. He can be trusted to take charge of a part of the Human Realm's defenses."

"In that case, Your Majesty, General Lin Nuhao will be particularly important in the upcoming plan."

Wu Wang's primordial spirit manipulated the immortal platform in the divine mansion, using immortal power and breath to condense a simple map of the southeastern region, on which he drew three arrows, with Lin Nuhao's name on one of the arrows.

"First, let's talk about the overall plan.

We must divide the mobilizable experts into three groups: one to face the enemy head-on, one to maintain the retreat route, and one to snipe the Heavenly Palace's reinforcements.

As for the specific arrangements, I cannot make the decision. Your Majesty, please find three capable experts to take charge."

"Good."

"We also need to adjust the strategy."

Wu Wang said, "Previously, we only had one visible and one hidden force, but now we need to increase it to three visible and one hidden.

On the surface, the Lin family's power and the Ji family's power are one visible force, the Elder Miao disguised as me is one visible force, and the cultivators in the Human Realm who are dissatisfied with the Heavenly Palace and hold the token to save the Yan Emperor are one visible force.

Of course, none of these three are the real main force. The main force still consists of the experts from the Human Realm who will charge in with the large formation.

This time is different from the last time. This time, we need three groups of experts to arrive in the southeastern region on the surface, forcing the Heavenly Palace to face us head-on.

This is the strategy of open attack and hidden retreat, and the road can also be used for marching."

Shen Nong asked in return, "I understand what you're saying, and I think it's good, but what does 'open attack and hidden retreat' mean?"Wu Wang was also confused.

Yes, this idiom is a historical allusion from his hometown, and Shen Nong should not have heard of it.

Mumbling and hesitating, Wu Wang managed to cover up the matter with a few vague words, feeling a little shaky inside.

"Elder, let me first talk about the several strategies that have been formulated."

Wu Wang's primordial spirit fiddled around in the immortal mansion, and several marked points appeared on the map of the southeastern region, with the Nine Wasteland City among them, serving as a springboard for the experts of the Human Realm to advance.

Like this, like that.

Wu Wang carefully explained his thoughts and the majority of the already formed plans to Shen Nong.

Gradually, the old Shen Nong's gaze at him became somewhat different.

But Wu Wang also knew his current shortcomings.

A good leader needs to know how to use people and understand the personalities of each general under his command.

Wu Wang couldn't do this, so he only spoke to Shen Nong about how many experts were needed for the surprise attack, the harassment, and how many experts should be arranged to maintain the retreat route and snipe the Heavenly Palace reinforcements.

As for who specifically would carry out these tasks, it could only be personally arranged by Shen Nong.

The Human Realm has many talents.

Half a day later.

The flames of the Yan Emperor's command were somewhat dim, and the virtual image of Shen Nong withdrew the majesty of the Human Emperor.

Wu Wang also breathed a sigh of relief, waiting for the old elder to say something.

Shen Nong said, "With the set of strategies you have provided, I will also discuss with those skilled in the art of war. This is not a lack of trust in you, but to check for any omissions and see if there are aspects that we have not considered."

"Of course," Wu Wang said slowly, "Single combat is not as good as teamwork, and the actual situation is definitely extremely complex."

Shen Nong smiled and said, "You always come up with some new tricks for me."

"Well..."

Shen Nong asked, "Wu Wang, where did you learn so many military tactics?"

Wu Wang smiled and said, "My mother taught me... Elder, do you have an idea? How many people have read those scriptures and know that I wrote them?"

"A total of one hundred and ninety-two people have come into contact with these scriptures."

Shen Nong sighed, "Fortunately, the number is not too large, and it is not too troublesome to investigate. In fact, it has always been like this since ancient times. There are always people in the Human Realm who are swayed by the Heavenly Palace. But rest assured, before I convened to discuss this matter, only Liu Bairen and a few other pavilion masters were present."

Wu Wang asked, "Have we resumed monitoring the Heavenly Palace?"

"A new internal response has been activated," Shen Nong said, "but there is still no news coming back."

"Right," Wu Wang said, "Deputy Deity of Lifespan is not someone to be trifled with after all."

Shen Nong sighed lightly and said slowly, "In a great battle, only success or failure matters. If the Human Realm cannot gain the slightest advantage in the confrontation with the Heavenly Palace this time, for the next thousand years, we can only defend the Human Realm and will no longer be able to actively expand the battlefield beyond the Human Realm. After a thousand years, it is feared that it will be another dark and turbulent era."

"Elder, is there no way to extend lifespan for a second time?" Wu Wang asked.

"I can face this matter calmly now," Shen Nong smiled, "and to be honest, if it weren't for the Human Realm making me worry, and there were no successors I could trust, I would have let go long ago. Being the Human Emperor is really too tiring, and it's never as carefree as collecting herbs and refining elixirs everywhere. But Wu Wang, someone will always step forward, and there will always be someone. To be the Human Emperor, you must first win the support of the people and have the means to deter the villains. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Wu Wang blinked, was he implying what would happen after the next Human Emperor ascended to the throne?

He said, "Elder, don't worry too much. No matter who takes your place in the future, as long as he doesn't offend me and has a good character, I will definitely help him."

Shen Nong: ...

"Enough, I will go find someone to study your tactics."

"Remember to arrange for the Four Seas Pavilion to investigate the matters in the southeastern region as soon as possible," Wu Wang hurriedly said, "The sooner the better, we need to let the Heavenly Palace see that we are about to take action."

"Good."

Shen Nong replied in this way, and the flames of the Yan Emperor's command crackled, no longer carrying the aura of the old elder.

Wu Wang's primordial spirit couldn't help but tilt his head slowly.

Just now, was the old elder hinting that the position of the Human Emperor could be passed to him?

This was unlikely. His identity was too complicated, he was the young master of the North Wilderness, the son of the Ice God, and his own path of cultivation was no longer pure. Most of his strength came from the innate god.

How could he win the support of the people to be the Human Emperor?

"Should be saying, let me help the new Human Emperor after he takes office."

As Wu Wang pondered this, his mind returned from the immortal mansion, he stretched lazily, and continued to plan tactics at his desk.

This was all so complicated, he must not get himself entangled in it and create a mess.

Before long, someone walked over.

Lin Suqing brought tea and greeted him.

Wu Wang smiled and responded, feeling even more motivated.

At this moment, in the Nine Wasteland City in the southeastern region, which was quite far from the Human Realm, he was directly contacting the Human Emperor through the Yan Emperor's command, influencing all aspects of the Human Realm.

In the next three days, the Human Realm's series of reactions were dizzying to watch.

The covert mobilization of experts;

The experts of the sects and aristocratic families were successively summoned to the Ren Emperor Pavilion for discussions;

The conflict between 'Master Wuwang' and Liu Bairen escalated, and the latter had ordered the experts of the Ren Emperor Pavilion to destroy the sect and withdraw, and 'Master Wuwang' would soon set out to the southeastern region to rescue Lin Qi.Lin Nu Hao, the head of the Lin family, invited his friends to express his dissatisfaction with the Ren Emperor Pavilion.

Lin Nu Hao got drunk and went crazy.

The power of the Lin family in the southeast region became restless, constantly sending out scouts to the city above the clouds.

At the same time, a large number of elite forces from the Four Seas Pavilion poured into various major cities in the southeast region...

In just three days, the atmosphere in the southeast region began to become tense. The human realm cultivators in the southeast region more or less heard rumors that Lin Nu Hao of the Lin family had vowed to rescue his only son.

In the city above the clouds, the guards of the feathered tribe increased several times, and some areas of the city had begun to close off to the outside world.

A storm is brewing.

Another group of golden-armored divine guards entered the southeast region from the East Wilderness and headed towards the city above the clouds.

But the movements of these divine guards had long been monitored by the people of the Four Seas Pavilion.

...

Jiu Huang City, Zhen Mo Tavern.

Wu Wang had been buried in those maps for several days.

Earlier, scouts from the Four Seas Pavilion had arrived here, bringing a package containing twelve precious communication jade symbols, representing the pinnacle craftsmanship of the current human realm alchemy.

As a result, Wu Wang was not only able to contact the old seniors, but also to communicate with Liu Bairen, Feng Yezi, Celestial Sword Taoist, and Lin Nu Hao.

He seemed to be taking charge of the overall situation.

Except for Emperor Di Shun, who could capture Wu Wang's movements, no one else could have guessed...

The main military tent of the human realm was placed in front of the three armies.

The troops did not move, but the commander moved first.

That night, Lin Suqing brought a pot of fruit wine and two plates of snacks, and said gently, "Senior Uncle, you should rest first. You've been under too much stress these past few days."

Wu Wang shook his head and transmitted his voice, "Lin Qi is currently in the hands of the enemy, suffering who knows how much. I'm just looking at the map and talking."

Lin Suqing smiled, "Senior Uncle, you've been acting like a different person these past few days, suddenly becoming very serious, and saying fewer annoying things."

"Really?"

Wu Wang picked up the wine pot and took a sip from the spout, "Niece, you must be mistaken. Your senior uncle is still as carefree as ever."

"Is that so?"

Lin Suqing couldn't help but make a face.

"Let's talk about business," Wu Wang stood up, holding a jade symbol in his hand, and took another sip of the sweet and mellow fruit wine.

This fruit wine was obviously different from the grape wine in his previous life. It tasted good, moistened the throat, and most importantly, it was not easy to get drunk on.

The fruit wine of the human realm was also a rare commodity within the human realm, commonly found in the boudoirs of various young ladies.

Wu Wang laughed, "What I'm doing now doesn't allow me to be carefree."

Although she noticed the young master's desire to confide, Aunt Suqing wisely did not ask too much.

"That's something to pay attention to," Aunt Suqing complained, "It's not like you're the only one in the world who can do these things. Just leave it to someone else."

"I also want to leave it to someone else."

Wu Wang said, "But many forces have pushed me to my current position, at the convergence of three powerful forces. There's no use in avoiding it at this point. Going with the flow will only be crushed by the forces on all three sides. It's better to take a more proactive approach and take control of my own destiny."

Lin Suqing nodded thoughtfully.

"I'm just confiding in you to relieve some pressure," Wu Wang finished the fruit wine in the small wine pot, feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

But there was no other way. Drinking would lead to mistakes, so he had to give up on this fruit wine. At a time like this, he couldn't afford to get drunk.

Suddenly, the jade symbol in Wu Wang's hand flashed, and the voice of a stranger came from within it:

"Lord, the group of bald eagles is about to break into the formation. Should we attack?"

Wu Wang thought for a moment and said firmly, "Yes, wipe them all out."

"Yes!"

The light of the jade symbol disappeared in an instant, and Wu Wang raised an eyebrow, walked back to the bed, and sat down, lost in thought.

"What's wrong?" Lin Suqing asked softly, "Do you want to rest for a while?"

"I can't rest now. I have to wait for a reply," Wu Wang muttered, "If there's a problem, I have to take remedial action in time."

He pondered for a moment, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Strictly speaking, this was Wu Wang's first time participating in a major battle as the overall commander.

In his understanding, achieving success was an honor for everyone, but if he failed, he would have to take the blame himself for tactical mistakes.

Tonight was quite crucial.

Of course, it was more symbolic than anything else. In reality, it wouldn't hurt the Heavenly Palace. Those golden-armored divine guards were just strong among the hundred races, belonging to the divine guards trained by the Heavenly Palace...

"Niece, bring me a cup of strong tea."

"Okay!"

Lin Suqing went to a corner and fiddled with the teapot.

She gently touched it, and a wisp of flame enveloped the teapot, evenly heating the spring water inside.

Wu Wang sat by the bed for a while, then went to the window sill for a while, listening to the two old troublemakers upstairs.

He calculated and speculated, trying to figure out what it meant that there was no reply at this time, and what the result of launching an attack after such a long time would be...

Finally, the jade symbol lit up again, and a somewhat panting voice came from within.

"Lord, except for the two intentionally let go, none of them escaped!"

Wu Wang let out a sigh of relief, stood by the bed, and smiled slightly.

"How are our casualties?"

"Very small, almost negligible."

"According to the previous plan, immediately disperse and leave that area, and be on guard against retaliation from the Heavenly Palace!"

"Yes!"The jade talisman flickered a few times, cutting off the communication once again.

"Wang, is the tea ready?" Wu Wang asked.

"It's ready," Lin Suqing hurriedly brought the hot tea over. Wu Wang, however, had already walked back to the desk, laying out hand-drawn topographic maps, his eyes shining brightly.

At this moment, in Lin Suqing's eyes, Wu Wang seemed to be emitting light.

...

In the southeast region, in the city above the clouds.

Lin Qi couldn't move, sitting in a gorgeous side hall.

In front of him was a graceful figure dancing, with seductive women on both sides, constantly making provocative movements, and someone constantly whispering in his ear.

Lin Qi's eyes were full of indifference, his lips tightly sealed.

Behind a few screens, two figures stood quietly.

The middle-aged man transformed by Poverty-stricken smiled with his hands behind his back, "Look, this method is useless on him. This child must first break through his mental defenses, then make him indulge in his own desires."

The seductive woman transformed by Hissing Snake said, "The leader's method is also useless, isn't it?"

"I didn't expect Lin Qi's will to be so strong," Poverty-stricken marveled, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. "A young man like this cannot be left in the Human Realm. After this matter is settled, it's best to just eliminate him directly."

"You go tell the leader," Hissing Snake said leisurely. "Don't you understand the temperament of Junior Deity of Lifespan?"

Poverty-stricken narrowed his eyes and chuckled.

Could he easily tell others about the matter of asking Deputy Deity of Lifespan to send reinforcements?

It's possible that Deputy Deity of Lifespan is already on the way...

"Quickly come to the main hall for a meeting! Something has happened!"

The loud voice of Kuiniu came from behind, Poverty-stricken and Hissing Snake glanced at each other, their figures flashed, and they disappeared from the place.

After a few hundred feet of passage, the two had appeared in a magnificent hall, with large groups of people in black robes kneeling on both sides, representing various tribes.

At the main seat, Junior Deity of Lifespan frowned lightly, and several Evil Gods stood by.

Below, two heavily injured divine guards knelt, each looking anxious and trembling all over.

Poverty-stricken asked, "Leader, what's going on?"

Kuiniu, transformed into a burly man, said in a low voice, "Three thousand divine guards who came to the Southeast from the Heavenly Palace were ambushed by a large group of Human Realm cultivators 16,000 miles north of the Cloud City. The enemy's forces were three times ours, and as soon as they made a move, a large array was formed, and various treasures were shot in unison. They had no chance to fight back... Only the two of them managed to escape."

Poverty-stricken smiled, "The Human Realm really made a move?"

"No top experts from the Human Realm were found," Kuiniu said. "Earlier, Junior Deity of Lifespan had already investigated the north, and the aura of those cultivators was not particularly strong, with mostly Transcendent and Elemental Immortals, and a large number of them."

Junior Deity of Lifespan said, "You two, repeat the words that the Human Realm cultivators shouted."

"Yes, yes..."

The two divine guards looked at each other, their furry faces full of fear.

One of them gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted, "Lonely souls wandering between heaven and earth! Unite! Gather together! The era of living beings is about to come, and the rule of the gods is about to end!"

Another person shouted, "The Human Realm is not weak, even the scattered soldiers have courage!"

After speaking, the two divine guards lay on the ground, not daring to move.

The expressions of Junior Deity of Lifespan and the Evil Gods were quite wonderful.

"Scattered soldiers of the Human Realm?"

Poverty-stricken frowned, "What's going on here?"

Kuiniu grinned and said, "As the name suggests, they did not come on behalf of the Human Emperor, they came to oppose us in the Southeast. These human cultivators are really interesting, they can come up with all sorts of tricks."

Hissing Snake said, "The location of the enemy's ambush is also intriguing."

"In the north of the Cloud City, in the direction of the East Wilderness."

Poverty-stricken's eyes flashed with a hint of light, murmuring, "It seems that the Human Realm is going to have a direct confrontation with us in the Southeast."

An Evil God said, "The attitude of the Ren Emperor's Pavilion is unclear at the moment. Liu Bairen and Master Wuwang had a big fight. Master Wuwang is always a bit impulsive, after all, he is a young man. We have a good chance of capturing Master Wuwang."

Another Evil God said, "What if this is a show they're putting on for us?"

"Junior Deity of Lifespan!"

Poverty-stricken said, "I have a plan!"

"Speak."

"Dispatch a large army here to clear out the Human Realm forces in the Southeast."

Poverty-stricken sneered, "As long as we push them hard, they will come out of the Human Realm on their own. The matter of Lin Qi has already caused a big commotion, so we might as well start the fire of war..."

Kuiniu muttered, "Look, look, they're starting to provoke again."

"Now is not the time for a major battle," Junior Deity of Lifespan said. "Our goal is just to capture Master Wuwang."

"Tsk."

Suddenly, a light laughter filled the hall.

Golden light seemed to appear in the void, surrounding in a circle, and there were a few holes in the void, from which figures stepped out.

The one in the lead had a handsome face and a tall figure, wearing an ancient robe and a green headscarf.

It was Deputy Deity of Lifespan.

Behind him, a dozen or so strange-looking innate gods stepped out, totaling more than ten divine spirits.

Following them, there were countless tall divine guards, most of whom had fur and faces resembling tigers and leopards, with an overall appearance similar to innate gods.The Deputy Deity of Lifespan chuckled, "Well done, my sister. Although you didn't capture Master Wuwang, the results you achieved are even better than capturing him."

The Junior Deity of Lifespan stood up calmly and said impatiently, "Are you here to direct the overall situation?"

"The situation is too complicated and beyond your ability to handle," the Deputy Deity of Lifespan said gently, "I will need your help later."

The Junior Deity of Lifespan:...

"Can I not return to the Heavenly Palace?"

"Now is the time to use people," the Deputy Deity of Lifespan said with a hint of request in his eyes, "If you could stay, that would be even better."

"I'm tired."

The Junior Deity of Lifespan said calmly, and then walked towards the circle of light without looking back.

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan said, "You didn't capture Master Wuwang this time. Starting something and not finishing it, giving up halfway, is not like you."

This simple provocation...

"Boring."

The Junior Deity of Lifespan stopped, but did not enter the teleportation gate. His figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared in the main hall.

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan smiled warmly and took his seat.

The divine guards marched forward, and more than ten innate gods took the place of the evil gods, leaving Poverty-stricken and other evil gods standing in a more remote area.

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan said gently, "Poverty-stricken? Tell me in detail about the situation you mentioned in your letter."

Poverty-stricken immediately ran forward, slightly leaning forward with his hands on his thighs, his eyes very clear, and a smile of immortality on his lips.

"Sir, the Human Realm is about to launch a strong attack on Cloud City..."

In a corner of the main hall, a bald, muscular man in a black robe and hood, who was lying there, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

'Who am I, where am I, and why am I here.'

This is bad!

Yang Wudi just wanted to infiltrate the Third Main Hall, but he didn't expect to infiltrate the enemy's headquarters!

So many innate gods, if anyone looks at him, then it's over!

Calm down, calm down, make your mind empty, think more about the loving scenes with a few wives, and guard against the evil gods probing the heart.

"Master, I really did my best this time!"

...

At the same time.

In the Human Realm, in a dark little world, figures sat in a spirit-rich array, seemingly contemplating something.

The aura of the Fire Dao was visible everywhere, and people were breaking through their realms from time to time, emitting waves of fire around them.

This was one of the several major garrisons of the Yan Emperor's Forbidden Army, a small world opened up by the Fire Dao in conjunction with the array, focusing on concealment and no unnecessary intervention of the Great Dao, completely out of sight of the Heavenly Palace.

In a corner, Xia Guan Huoling stood with his hands behind his back, discussing something with three other leaders of the Forbidden Army in front of a map.

A few flashes of fire passed, and the figure of Shen Nong appeared here.

The four leaders bowed in unison:

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Shen Nong said, "How is the deduction going?"

The four leaders spoke in turn:

"Your Majesty, this plan is absolutely feasible. However, there is one point: there are too many experts responsible for the retreat. One-third of the experts are used to maintain the retreat, which is a waste of combat power."

"Your Majesty, there is a very important part of the overall plan, which is about infiltrating the enemy's rear. How well this part is completed will determine what kind of results we can achieve. This matter should be arranged with elite soldiers. I am willing to make a military order!"

An old man said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I think this matter should be entrusted to someone as steady as me, which is more appropriate."

Xia Guan Huoling said, "Your Majesty, I am the most suitable for this matter."

"No need to fight over this," Shen Nong smiled, "The person who infiltrates the enemy's rear is the one who devises the overall plan. Do you think this person is worth assisting?"

The four officials remained silent.

The old man said, "Your Majesty, the Human Emperor is not a strategist. Based on this alone, it can only be said that he is a person skilled in warfare and planning, and may not necessarily be the right choice for the Human Emperor."

Shen Nong said slowly, "This person is Master Wuwang."

"Then it's fine," the old man smiled, "Leaving aside other matters, I already admire Master Wuwang's reform strategy for the Ren Emperor's Pavilion. His ability to see the suffering of mortals is very rare."

Xia Guan Huoling frowned slightly and said softly, "Isn't he not good at leading troops?"

"Do you believe this little rascal's words?"

Shen Nong chuckled and the Xia Guan Huoling pursed her lips, looking a bit embarrassed. At this moment, she, who was tall and valiant, also seemed a bit awkward.

"Each department is to prepare for immediate deployment to the southeast. Xia Guan, you will gather the experts of the Ren Emperor's Pavilion later and restrain them in secret. There must be no leaks. Your department will guard this end of the teleportation array and participate in the main front station."

"Yes!"

Xia Guan smiled slightly, while the other three looked a bit depressed.

It had been tens of thousands of years since such a big battle, and they were all eager to try. If they let their subordinates know afterwards, and all the credit was taken by Xia Guan, there would definitely be trouble.

'Why don't you dare to fight His Majesty!'

There's probably going to be this kind of talk.

Shen Nong's gaze passed over the map, with a hint of tranquility in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a while, his figure disappeared from this place, and the four leaders quickly bowed in salute.

The Human Emperor did not return to his residence, nor did he go to the Northern Territory, but crossed the world and arrived in another hazy little world.

There were countless such little worlds hidden in the Human Realm; each one had a grand hall with no doors or windows, and more than ten figures sitting on the roof of the hall.In this small world, connected to the underground training grounds of the main hall of Renhuang Pavilion, Wu Wang had already visited twice, extracting sixty percent of the divine power from the Evil God's nephew.

Now, the chains extending from the great hall had doubled, and aside from the nephew's half-remaining corpse, two other massive creatures were bound here, each sprouting ten small flowers.

Shen Nong stood silently for a moment, then reached forward with his left hand, causing the body of the carved insect to shatter directly into a pile of yellow sand.

The dozen or so small flowers danced and chased after each other, flying towards Shen Nong, continuously shedding and merging in the air, and by the time they reached Shen Nong's palm, they had transformed into a lotus flower.

He walked away with his cane, leaving behind only a half-sigh.

Moments later;

At the back mountain of the Mysterious Female Sect, in front of the treasure pond shrouded in fairy light.

The Sect Master of the Pure Moon, having received Shen Nong's Voice Transmission in advance, had already dismissed the old women guarding the place and set up several layers of formations.

When Shen Nong appeared, Pure Moon immediately stepped forward to pay respects, but Shen Nong gestured for her not to bother.

"No need for formalities... How is she?"

"Everything is normal," Pure Moon said softly, "Your Majesty need not worry, the princess's divine soul is growing strong. In just over forty years, she will be able to leave the Nurturing Spirit Pond."

"There's no time."

Shen Nong sighed lightly, walking to the edge of the pond, his aged face showing a mix of complex emotions.

Pure Moon, not understanding, asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Shen Nong flipped his left hand, and the lotus flower slowly emerged, its clear divine power flowing within, causing Pure Moon's expression to change.

"Your Majesty! Shouldn't we consult the princess about this?"

"Emperor Di Shun has already visited Master Wuwang."

Pure Moon, puzzled, said, "What... What does this have to do with the princess?"

"It means that the Heavenly Palace is determined to reclaim the Great Dao of Fire. When they launch their full assault, my son will inevitably be affected."

Shen Nong spoke slowly:

"It's too late for her to start her cultivation anew. Having the power to protect herself is the only way she can survive better in the future.

Besides, walking this path, she will have someone to look after her later on."

Pure Moon closed her eyes and sighed softly, saying nothing more, stepping back to watch.

Shen Nong slowly sat down by the pond, his figure slightly hunched, his demeanor somewhat helpless.

He murmured something, placing the lotus into the treasure pond.

A faint silhouette of a young girl emerged above the pond, showing Shen Nong a slight smile, her figure gently drifting forward, bowing slightly in front of him.

'My daughter has caused her father much trouble.'

'It is I who have implicated you.'

The girl gently shook her head, gazing at Shen Nong, her form returning to the treasure pond.

Gathering the divine power of the Evil God, refined by the Human Emperor, condensing the true essence of the precious lotus, assembling a demigod's body.

In the next instant, the treasure pond surged with rich fairy light, which circled the back mountain of the Mysterious Female Sect for several hours. Unaware of the truth, others thought a Dao treasure had been born.
