Chapter 153: Questioning the Motives

The matter between the Mortal Realm Walker and Emperor De stirred up a lot of commotion.

But since Lin Jiufeng had agreed to accompany the white cat on their tour of the Jiangnan area, he wouldn’t give up on it halfway.

“What if Emperor De actually died?” The white cat asked.

“The subordinates that Emperor De has groomed over the years and the powerhouses that he has recruited are all over there. There’s no need to worry. Didn’t everyone say that the King of Rogue Cultivators from the previous era went out to stop the Mortal Realm Walker?”

Lin Jiufeng stated.

“What if?” The white cat asked.

“What if…” Lin Jiufeng thought for a while.

“There’s no ‘what if’. I believe in Emperor De.” Lin Jiufeng smiled gently.

Counting the time, Monk Fusan should already be at the Imperial Capital.

With him around, Emperor De’s safety should be guaranteed.

“We just need to pay attention to the various rumors. After so many years, Emperor De is a child no more. He is already a grown-up.” Lin Jiufeng explained.

He looked at the peach blossom forest outside the peach blossom village and drank a mouthful of peach blossom brew, feeling relaxed and at ease.

Meow!

The white cat called out sweetly. She stuck out its pink tongue and licked the peach blossom brew. Her eyes immediately narrowed into crescent moons.

…

Every cultivator in the world paid close attention to this matter.

The Mortal Realm Walker of the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect was facing the King of Rogue Cultivators from the previous era.

The two sides were definitely on the verge of reaching their previous peaks, they couldn’t be underestimated.

People also dug up the deeds of the King of Rogue Cultivators, Li Chengfeng.

He made a name for himself when he was young and was a descendant of an aristocratic family. But before he turned 15, his family was annihilated and with their properties taken away, nothing from his family remained.

He became an orphan at the age of 15 and soon became a rogue cultivator.

In times of adversity, one’s character could be tempered.

The faction that exterminated Li Chengfeng’s family was a major sect.

He didn’t have a good impression of every sect in the cultivation world at all.

He refused to join any of the major sects and traveled through the martial world alone.

In the days to come, while improving his cultivation base, he secretly killed his enemies.

Finally, ten years later, he killed the culprit of that incident by the East Sea’s shores.

But these were Li Chengfeng’s life experiences, not the glory of his life.

The most glorious moment of his life was when the immortal of the Quan Zhen Sect was still in this world.

He went over to the Quan Zhen Sect to challenge that immortal.

He drew his sword against the immortal.

And after supposedly just one strike…

The immortal stopped attacking.

Li Chengfeng was injured and he stumbled away from Quan Zhen Sect.

Everyone had paid attention to their duel back then!

Not only did everyone not look down on Li Chengfeng, but they were instead shocked by him.

He drew his sword against the immortal.

The presence of his sword burned like a raging fire, alarming the immortal.

Then, the immortal struck him.

The strike was made by an immortal, but it didn’t kill Li Chengfeng.

It didn’t matter whether the immortal didn’t manage to kill Li Chengfeng or that he was lenient and didn’t want to take Li Chengfeng’s life…

In any case, Li Chengfeng had fought with an immortal before and managed to survive the ordeal.

Everyone knew that he had drawn his sword against an immortal.

The title of the King of Rogue Cultivators was then given to him.

This was the story of the King of Rogue Cultivators, Li Chengfeng.

He fought and won countless times in his life, but the people of the world only remembered that he once drew his sword against an immortal and then lost.

But despite his loss, the public’s opinion of him rose a lot.

Therefore, in a battle, the target’s reputation was also important to bolstering one’s influence.

Li Chengfeng’s lifelong enemies weren’t as influential as the immortal in that battle.

He had won countless times in his life, but it wasn’t as significant as the one where he lost.

This was enough to prove that in the eyes of the people, Immortals were powerful, terrifying, and distinguished.

Since the people of the world found out everything about Li Chengfeng, they naturally figured out the origins of Daoist Priest Daoyi too.

As the Mortal Realm Walker of this generation from the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect, he should have received the worship of the people in the world the moment he came down from the mountain.

But the origins of Daoist Priest Daoyi were very mysterious, no one knew about him.

Everyone dug for more information.

But in the end, the only information they managed to learn was about Daoist Priest Daoyi’s Master.

“In the previous era, there was a divine dynasty called Taichu.”

“The emperors of the Taichu God Dynasty also liked to cultivate, but because the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect was patrolling and supervising the world back then, they discovered the emperors who cultivated in the Dao…”

“No matter how powerful the Taichu God Dynasty was, they didn’t allow it.”

“The Daoist Priest Daoyi’s Master assassinated the nine emperors of the Taichu God Dynasty in succession, causing the members of the royal family of the God Dynasty to tremble in fear. When the newly ascended emperor saw the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect, he was truly terrified from the bottom of his heart.”

This information came from those people from the previous era.

To summarize, they dug up some of the Daoist Priest Daoyi’s past.

Many details could be hidden in the past.

If no one didn’t mention them, one would never think of them.

“I finally understand why the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect targeted the Yuhua God Dynasty the moment it came into being.” Some people guessed the conflict between the Daoist Priest Daoyi and Emperor De.

There were no personal grudges between them, it was just that their ideals and principles greatly contrasted each other.

‘If what you have done violates my rules, I will come and kill you. I don’t care who you are.’

Daoist Priest Daoyi was being observed by many scouts from all sorts of factions and forces in the dark every day. Because they knew that he was very powerful, the scouts didn’t dare to approach him. They could only watch silently and report the news quickly to their masters.

Daoist Priest Daoyi—who was being observed every day—didn’t look uncomfortable at all.

Instead, he traveled leisurely, not worried about Li Chengfeng’s arrival at all.

What’s more, in order to let Li Chengfeng find him as soon as possible, Daoist Priest Daoyi even made the yellow ox carrying him wait for half a day without moving.

Li Chengfeng thus came.

He was a young man who carried the spring breeze and warmth of the sun with him.

“Kid, move aside.” Daoist Priest Daoyi patted the back of the big yellow ox.

He had stopped in the middle of the forest, enjoying the scenery around him.

He sized up Li Chengfeng, then pursed his lips. “You’re already so old, yet you’re still pretending to be young. You’re really something.”

Li Chengfeng walked over from afar. In just a few steps, he directly arrived in front of Daoyi.

“Should I take that as you being jealous of me?” Li Chengfeng asked with a smile.

Daoist Priest Daoyi looked like a very ordinary old man with a potbellied stomach and slightly tanned skin.

“I’m jealous of you? What a joke!” Daoist Priest Daoyi shouted coldly.

“If you’re not jealous of me, then move aside and stop heading for the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty,” Li Chengfeng replied solemnly.

“Dream on. You can have everything in your dreams,” Daoist Priest Daoyi said disdainfully.

“Are you really going to kill Emperor De of the Yuhua God Dynasty?” Li Chengfeng asked.

“Yes!” Daoist Priest Daoyi nodded.

“Why?” Li Chengfeng raised his brows.

“He is a cultivator. His cultivation base will allow him to live for a thousand years. How can there be a thousand-year-old Emperor in this world?” Daoist Priest Daoyi replied.

“As for you, the King of Rogue Cultivators, your title is so awe-inspiring and powerful, but to think that you would actually join the Yuhua God Dynasty.”

“You didn’t become a part of any faction nor sect in the previous era, so why did you join the Yuhua God Dynasty the moment you came into being? The contrast is so great, what exactly are you trying to do?”

Daoist Priest Daoyi questioned Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng had never been weaker than anyone in his generation.

In the previous era, regardless of the circumstances, he never joined any faction.

“You don’t understand. I didn’t join the Yuhua God Dynasty, I just happened to discover what you were trying to do,” Li Chengfeng replied.

“Then for whom are you doing this for?” Daoist Priest Daoyi asked quizzically.

“For the bilions people of people in the world!” Li Chengfeng declared his stance.
