Bai Lingxi had just accepted the appointment of the Imperial Dragon Guards when she saw two men walking in outside the Taizheng Hall.
The one walking in front was of medium stature, dressed in a luxurious First Grade Robe, with a round face, fair and soft skin, small eyes, a small nose, and a kind and amiable smile, making him look like a white dough ball.
Bai Lingxi had gathered information about all the people around Chu Xisheng before she arrived.
She immediately recognized this white dough ball as the Grand Secretary of the Dalv Dynasty, ’Heaven and Earth’ Jian Cangfeng.
The one who followed behind was a tall and slender middle-aged man in his forties.
He wore a silver-white suit of light armor and had a refined, white complexion, with a neatly trimmed short beard under his chin. His sharp eyes were eagle-like and his demeanor was decisive and sharp.
This should be Chu Xisheng’s most trusted personal Dragon Guard—’Mad Sword’ Feng San!
It’s said he’s a top expert from the Kunlun Mountain Human Clan, deeply trusted by Chu Xisheng.
To what extent does Chu Xisheng trust this guy?
This person even managed to pull together a sizable faction right under Chu Xisheng’s nose, within the Dalv Dynasty’s court.
He actually recruited many experts from the Kunlun Mountain Human Clan into the Imperial Guards of the Inner Palace.
Among Chu Xisheng’s twelve Dragon Guards, it’s said that five are from Kunlun Mountain or have certain connections with Kunlun Mountain.
After the two entered the hall, Feng San’s steps suddenly stopped.
He slightly furrowed his brows and looked at Bai Lingxi with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Mad Sword Feng San’s gaze flickered, trying hard to recall where the familiar feeling came from but couldn’t find it.
This made his eyes gradually grow confused.
Bai Lingxi was slightly strange; did this Mad Sword Feng San recognize her?
That should be impossible. ’Bai Lingxi’ had not set foot in Jianghu for thousands of years.
She immediately suppressed this thought and stepped aside to stand.
As the Grand Secretary of the current dynasty, Jian Cangfeng, who dealt with myriad affairs daily, coming to the palace at this time must mean there was an important matter to discuss with the Emperor.
After Jian Cangfeng came in, he respectfully saluted Chu Xisheng.
Chu Xisheng did not stop him.
He knew this was part of Jian Cangfeng’s secret ceremony to follow the Heavenly Rule.
Because all the court rituals of the Dalv Dynasty were established by Jian Cangfeng.
The purpose of Jian Cangfeng in establishing various laws and rites of the Dalv Dynasty was to strengthen his ’Heavenly Rule’.
But now, he first had to make others abide by his rules.
If Jian Cangfeng himself didn’t care and didn’t abide by them, how could he make others take them seriously and abide by them?
After the salute, Jian Cangfeng looked at Bai Lingxi beside him, his eyes gleaming with brilliance: "Congratulations to Your Majesty for gaining yet another general under your command."
Chu Xisheng let out a loud laugh, took off the Pingtian Crown from his head, and took a step off the Imperial Platform: "This is the Chan Sect’s Envoy, specially here to assist in my grand endeavor. The words of the ancients do not deceive me; with my benevolence across the world, talents naturally gather, and wise people assemble."
As he spoke, he walked towards the back door: "Let’s go, we’re heading to the Heavenly Altar. Over at Wang’an City, there’s going to be action soon and it might require the senior brother to make a move. Calling him in temporarily was for this matter."
Just because new words had appeared on the blue screen in front of him.
Chu Yunyun: I’m about to start!
Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but marvel secretly.
Chu Yunyun’s escape skill is truly formidable; in such a short time, she had already reached Wang’an City.
Previously in the Northern region, Chu Yunyun managed to cross the Endless Icefield in an extremely short time, traveling from Yan State to Cold State to rescue her sister.
Chu Yunyun’s escape skill can directly tear through the Void, traveling long distances within the vast Void without fear of getting lost or the storms therein, incredibly swift!
And from here to Wang’an City, it’s only about fifty to sixty thousand miles.
"So, they’ve already taken the bait?"
Jian Cangfeng touched his nose, revealing a helpless smile.
This junior brother of his is digging traps again.
Chu Ming, Chu Yunyun—each one being thrown out as enticing bait, it would be best if they could lure the Gods into the trap; otherwise, it doesn’t matter.
He said with some trepidation: "I can make a move, no problem, it’s just that the disturbance is a bit large. Please, Your Majesty, be patient; in my opinion, there’s no need to use the Heavenly Altar this time.
Although I’m not sure what level of power Senior Sister has reached now, it’s definitely not something those avatars of the Eternal Gods can handle."
Jian Cangfeng, unless absolutely necessary, didn’t want to be too conspicuous.
Of course, if it meant injuring those divine avatars of the Upper Eternal by making a commotion, he would certainly be willing ten thousand times over.
But he hoped that his Senior Sister would display divine might and handle those Eternal Gods by herself.
Jian Cangfeng, when he spoke to this point, found it astounding.
Why were those Gods so foolish? How could they be so arrogant?
Had they not suffered enough at the hands of his junior brother?
Couldn’t they see such an obvious trap?
Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but laugh: "I certainly know your Senior Sister’s power has long surpassed the Limit of Mortal Gods. But we’ll still go over to prepare, as the saying goes, it’s better to be prepared, just in case."
He was smiling on his face, but his eyes revealed a sharp murderous intent: "I only worry that they might escape. One must know, there’s only a thousand days for a thief, never a thousand days to guard against a thief, better to seize this opportunity and eliminate them all cleanly."
