Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 580: An explanation!
"Zhao, you are one of the best among the new generation of Wu Clan priests. Why is it that after all these years, the position of the Gonggong Tribe's High Priest is still held by the Goulong Tribe?"
Li watched the battle for a while and felt relieved when he saw that Zhuanxu and Chong were under no pressure.
He looked at Chi Zhao and asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time.
Both the man and the witch were the favorite disciples of the high priest of the imperial capital. Li knew very well that the other party was no ordinary person.
When he left the imperial capital and resolutely returned north, he almost entered the realm of great wizard.
Now his cultivation level should not be inferior to his.
If Chi Zhao could have become the high priest of Gonggong earlier, would they have needed to mobilize such a large force?
Just write a letter to revise it.
Facing Li's question, Chi Zhao's face was filled with shame. He looked away unnaturally and said hesitantly, "Northern Continent is not like Eastern Land. Although we live in the same world of humanity, the witch tribe is not as prosperous as the human race...
Things like luck and merit are naturally rare, not to mention that you have seen all kinds of situations in Beizhou. In addition, the next priest of the Chishui tribe has not yet grown up, so..."
Chi Zhao kept talking, but by the end he became less and less confident, and his voice gradually became weaker.
"In short, the high priest from the Goulong tribe is worthy of the responsibility. I have no right to comment."
Li looked at Chi Zhao who was avoiding his gaze, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The last sentence is probably the real reason.
[It seems that the high priest of the Goulong tribe is no ordinary person. Even the usually arrogant Zhao was impressed.]
Li wanted to ask something, but seeing that his old friend didn't want to say more, he gave up the idea.
He simply said, "We from the Ruoshui Nation are here to see Ruomu off to establish friendship. I hope you can come forward and talk to your Red Dragon Clan Leader later."
"In this era, it's better not to make too much noise. It's better for everyone."
"After all, there are still many days ahead..."
Li looked at Chi Zhao with a meaningful look.
Chi Zhao nodded slightly upon hearing this. He looked at the battle in the sky and smiled, "With Bei Zheng's ability, it won't be difficult for him to subdue the Chishui tribe. Even among the twelve major tribes of Gonggong, the only one that can pose a threat to him is probably the Goulong tribe..."
Chi Zhao returned to his original position, his expression serious, and said to Li: "But what I want to say is that if he wants to achieve great things in Northern Juluzhou in the future, he will not only have to face the Gonggong tribe.
Zhurong, Qiangliang, Xuanming, and even Dijiang will all make some moves! Whether or not they can gain recognition depends on Zhuanxu's methods.
"So, your Gonggong Ministry is just getting started?"
Li raised his eyebrows and looked at Chi Zhao calmly.
Chi Zhao did not deny it. He continued, "Besides the Wu Clan, based on my understanding of the Demon Clan, they will not be too quiet either. They will definitely make other attempts."
"In the great world of humanity, the Great Emperor of the Human Race is respected as the common ruler of the world. This is already a huge concession for the two races."
"If the human race truly wishes to rule over Northern Continent, then we in Northern Continent have the right to inquire whether those who come are qualified!"
"It's not that our two races are too ignorant to see the bigger picture, nor are we too reveling in our past glory. On the contrary, as the former overlords of heaven and earth, we are more clear-headed than anyone else."
"Our era has long passed..."
Having said that, Chi Zhao sighed deeply, with a hint of loneliness in his expression.
But the trace of loneliness on his face was soon replaced by incomparable determination.
"What we need is an explanation!"
A firm voice sounded, and Chi Zhao's eyes fell on Li. His expression was full of seriousness: "Li, we need to give an explanation to ourselves and our people!"
"Do you understand?"
Li listened quietly to his friend's confession without saying a word.
It was not until Chi Zhao's question fell into his ears that he nodded slightly, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
“I understand!”
Of course he could understand.
Rather than saying that the Lich and the Wizard race need to give themselves an explanation, it is better to say that they need a reason.
A reason to convince myself and allow the two races to truly integrate into the world of humanity.
As the former overlords of heaven and earth, when the overlord of the new era rises and touches the living places of the two races, they certainly have the right to ask whether the newcomer has the qualifications to rule them.
This is the dignity of being a powerful race.
It is also the common pride of witches and demons.
If they don't even have the courage to ask, then the witch clan and the demon clan will be abandoned by the times and swept into the dust of history.
However, although we understand it, the human race will not stop its progress.
"You do what you should do, and we follow our path. There is no contradiction."
"If our human race can't even make it to Northern Juluzhou, then we are unworthy of leading this great world!"
The corners of Li's mouth curved up, his expression was gentle, his deep eyes shone with wisdom, his words were confident but not ostentatious, and he had a refined demeanor.
He was just stating a fact.
Chi Zhao looked at him deeply, then shook his head and laughed.
"Let's wait and see!"
…
As the two were talking, the battle in the sky gradually came to an end.
The Red Dragon fought with Zhuanxu with his physical body, which was the great wizard's greatest pride, but he was unable to defeat the opponent and instead gradually fell into a disadvantage, which made him very annoyed.
"drink!"
The red dragon pushed out with one palm, and the endless space instantly folded and pressed towards Zhuanxu.
The laws of water condense like a blue dragon, moving in all directions.
In an instant, the void was flooded, as if the Milky Way fell from the sky, filling the void, wanting to cleanse the world, causing ripples in countless timelines, which was extremely terrifying.
"This is Xiaodaoer!"
Zhuanxu raised his hand and struck back with a palm, his martial arts spirit spread throughout the heavens, and his inner scene was released outwards.
In an instant, in the vast sky and boundless void, one hundred and eighty thousand martial arts Yang Gods appeared, and at the end of time, they attacked the red dragon with their palms.
Boom!
The loud noise shook the sky, the sea turned upside down, and the Milky Way in the sky was cut off by Zhuanxu's palm. The water domain of the red dragon was shattered in an instant and scattered into thousands.
The Azure Dragon was bound, and the water elemental power between heaven and earth began to fade away.
The red dragon took three steps back, crushing billions of spaces.
Zhuanxu refused to give in and took a step forward. One hundred and eighty thousand Yang Gods merged into one. His aura rose to an extremely terrifying level. A faint glow appeared around his body, as if thousands of worlds were floating and sinking. It was too astonishing.
"Fellow Daoist, it's time to turn back!"
Zhuanxu threw a punch as big as a world, heading straight for the red dragon’s face.
The red dragon's face turned dark, and he cut the void with his finger. A terrifying crack appeared, and the power of water element rioted again.
The raging flood engulfed the heaven and earth. Even a drop of water was as big as a star. When this surging flood gathered together, not only would an entire world be destroyed, even all the heavens in the ten directions would be destroyed!
But Zhuanxu was not afraid at all. He fiddled with it casually, and the space-time order that had been messed up by the red dragon calmed down in the blink of an eye.
The fist is a palm, and when one hand presses down, there is a brilliant fairy light in the palm that shines through time and space.
Tao and principles are intertwined, law and technique are intertwined, and the huge palm is like a vast net in the sky, which is loose and nothing can escape it.
The violent law of water is like an angry dragon charging, like a mad snake struggling, and like countless immortal weapons and swords slashing against the sky.
"witch!"
"witch!"
"witch!"
Every drop of water contains the wizard's indomitable will, the indomitable will to fight against heaven and earth!
Endless slaughter filled the skies, and it seemed as if one could hear the dull horn blowing, and vaguely see billions of slaughter transformed into golden swords and iron horses rushing towards them.
Faced with all this, Zhuanxu's face was calm, his deep eyes showed no joy or sadness, and his expression was almost indifferent.
When he pressed down with that palm strike, it was like the sky was falling and the earth was cracking.
Everything was wiped out and everything returned to nothingness.
There is no sound in all directions, and all the heavens are silent.
Only a huge body slowly fell down!
“Chief!”
The great wizard Chi Yue, who was fighting with Chong, was furious.
"So excited? Then why don't you go and keep him company!"
He raised his eyebrows again, and slammed the halberd in his hand suddenly, instantly exploding the five sacred mountains in the void that were as vast as the universe.
Before Chi Yue could react and defend himself, he was photographed for nine days.
boom!!!
The body of the great wizard, as big as a mountain, fell into the Red River and almost cut off the river.
“Chief!!”
Chi Yue rushed out again, full of energy, and it was obvious that his injuries were not serious.
He ignored his opponent and rushed towards the tribe.
When they arrived at the sacrificial square, they saw the red dragon lying next to the statue of Gonggong, motionless, and the priest Chi Zhao was silent again.
Chi Yue's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he burst into tears with grief.
“Head of the clan!”
"Why did you..."
"roll!"
An angry shout made Chi Yue's wailing stop abruptly.
He was like a goose with its neck strangled, staring blankly at the dying red dragon that sat up again.
"Chief, you are not dead!"
Chi Yue touched the back of his head, the sadness on his face disappeared, and he laughed heartily.
He looks so honest!
Chilong's face was as black as charcoal. He wanted to curse something, but finally held it back.
He just responded muffledly.
"Um!"
The priest Chi Zhao beside him couldn't help laughing. He coughed twice and reminded in a low voice: "Chief, Zhuanxu is still waiting outside..."
Chilong's face turned even darker.
"You're welcome!"
Chi Zhao led the crowd out, calming the emotions of the tribe members while inviting Zhuanxu into the tribe for a chat.
"It would have been better if you had done this earlier!"
He curled his lips again, put away the halberd, and followed Zhuanxu.
Li looked at him and smiled, "Zhong, this responsibility is on you. If you had taken Chiyue earlier, we might have been able to get in earlier."
"I was boasting before, but now it seems that I'm still a long way off!"
Chong had long been accustomed to Li's squeeze, so he remained calm and did not get angry.
He simply said, "It turns out that even our high priest has his moments of dementia."
"What do you mean?" Li looked at him curiously.
Chong smiled and said, "If I don't fight harder, how can I show off our boss's strength?"
"If I end the fight first, wouldn't that steal the boss's limelight? How could I possibly do such a foolish thing?"
The reason why he took the initiative to fight Chi Yue was to clear the obstacles for the boss.
After all, it’s king against king, general against general!
[I never realized that Chong is also well versed in this.]
This caught Li a little off guard.
He looked at his old partner, who looked very proud, and said sincerely: "Zhong, letting you be a military officer is really an insult to your talent!"
"You should join our ranks of civil servants!"
"No! Don't trick me!"
The smile on Chong's face froze on the spot.
Family members know their own business. He is very knowledgeable, but when it comes to scheming and intelligence, he is no match for these dirty civil servants.
In the beginning, there was no distinction between civil and military affairs.
But later, the gods who advocated flying bricks with great force and breaking all laws with force found that they could not win if they played tricks, and they could not win if they fought.
What to do?
Stick together!
Everyone builds their own system and plays their own game!
So much so that in the human era, the system of civil and military officials became popular.
However, due to the first person who established the system, a certain unnamed emperor, the overall style of the human race was distorted.
As a result, the definition between civil and military is now very vague.
Military officers are not necessarily smart.
But civil servants can definitely fight!
"Zhong, you can't be disturbed by the outside world. The outside world has always had a deep misunderstanding of us civil servants!"
Li looked at Chong with regret.
He smiled again without saying anything.
Even if you say something fancy today, I won't be fooled.
In front, Zhuanxu listened to the dispute between the two subordinates and shook his head.
What era is it now? What’s the point of worrying about civil and military affairs?
Anyway, most of the time, it is not the civil officials or the military generals who are protecting the lord.
But the lord is protecting them.
Because the boss is better at fighting than the younger brother!
Bang!
Zhuanxu raised his leg and kicked open the door of the Chishui Hall.
Under the astonished gazes of the witches, he sat in the main seat with his horse and sword in his arms.
This made the red dragon, who had just stood up, look gloomy.
"You've finished your explanation. How about listening to mine?"
Zhuanxu's voice was solemn and powerful, like the roar of thunder, shaking people's hearts.
Chi Zhao's eyelids twitched. He had never expected Zhuanxu to act like this. He had no choice but to hold down the clan leader, Chilong, and asked in a deep voice, "What does Beizheng mean ?"
Zhuanxu raised his chin slightly, with a hint of looking down on the world. His majesty was so overwhelming that the witches dared not breathe.
"My reasoning is very simple!"
"Two words: be obedient!"
The Red Dragon suppressed his anger and asked through gritted teeth, "What do you mean by 'obedient'?!"
"Can't understand?"
Zhuanxu glanced at him sideways, then turned to look at his ministers.
"Li, come and translate for Chief Red Dragon what 'obedient' means!"
Li smiled slightly and answered.
"Come when called, go when dismissed!"
"Obey the wind and obey orders!"
"That's all!"
There was silence all around, and the air in the hall was frozen.
Seeing that no one said a word, he shook his head again: "Li, it's already this late, why are you still showing off?"
"Let me translate it!"
He put his hands on his hips and said arrogantly: "To put it simply, the meaning of 'obedient' is:
You can go east but not west!
You're told to catch a dog but not a chicken!"
"This is called being obedient!"
boom!!
The atmosphere in the hall exploded instantly.
"What an obedient one!"
Before the red dragon could move, an angry roar came from the sky.
The person who came was tall and strong, with a python head and a human body, covered with black scales, and stepping on a black dragon. He looked very similar to Gonggong!
As soon as he appeared, the sky darkened, dark clouds turned black, lightning snakes and electric pythons raged violently, and heavy rain poured down endlessly.
Zhuanxu looked at the great wizard in the storm, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Gou Long!"
