Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1816: Chapter 493: Unease, Acting for Heaven

He began to call upon the Cliff Divine King.

"We must hurry, hurry, we absolutely cannot wait any longer.

Today is the day of the Dadui Coronation Ceremony for Emperor Dui.

They too will have a sacrificial ritual.

Think of a way to intervene, we cannot let them proceed smoothly."

The Cliff Divine King felt something was wrong, the Ancient Sea God seemed a bit unstable.

"What has happened?"

The Ancient Sea God didn’t hide anything and directly recounted what he had been through.

"I again glimpsed the past, searching for various important nodes.

Yet I couldn’t discover what exactly happened, what that power was, or where it came from.

Someone has used the Black Ship Saints to carry out these deeds.

I feel unease, a profound unease, like a shadow following me.

I think we cannot delay any longer, no matter what, we must hasten."

The Ancient Sea God was somewhat agitated, but the Cliff Divine King remained rather calm.

"You should know that when they sacrifice, it’s certainly not to worship us.

But to sacrifice for the fortune of the Dadui Country, to sacrifice to heaven.

If I interfere, it certainly won’t be very effective.

The greatest possibility would be to merely prevent the surge of Dadui’s fortune."

"That will be enough, I will also act, there is no time, don’t waste it." The Ancient Sea God finished speaking and directly cut off the connection.

The Cliff Divine King frowned a bit, he didn’t quite understand what the Ancient Sea God had discovered that made him somewhat anxious.

He was also watching the great events happening in the world.

Before the coronation ceremony of Emperor Dui was settled, it was a well-known event, widely discussed, there was no way he wouldn’t know.

To say he had no intention of doing something would be impossible.

But after weighing the pros and cons, he felt that doing something at this time might not have a significant impact, so he decided to let it go for now.

To his surprise, while he gave up, the Ancient Sea God wanted to do something.

The Cliff Divine King was also pondering what kind of power could make even the Ancient Sea God uncertain whether that power dissipated or was assimilated.

At this moment, the coronation ceremony of Dadui had already begun.

A series of lengthy procedures were underway, Yu Ziqing had already changed into the coronation attire, sitting quietly, waiting for the moment when he needed to appear.

This moment was handed over to Zhang.

Zhang was reciting an essay, recounting the challenges and achievements of Dadui over the years.

Making all the citizens of Dadui understand what has been done to achieve today’s success.

Yu Ziqing observed with concentration, listening quietly, when the indication came, he stood up and strode towards the sacrificial altar.

As he stepped onto the avenue, walking step by step to the altar, his true form was revealed to everyone for the first time.

In the distant crowd, many Riddlers felt a jolt, their expressions slightly changing.

They all recognized him as the Riddler Yi Sijiu.

It turned out their majesty had been acting under an alias all along.

Yu Ziqing had roamed Dadui many times, traversing every populated place in Dadui.

Many Riddlers actually knew about this, but they didn’t ask more, just figured that this prominent figure among the Riddlers was on some secret mission.

Now everything was suddenly clear.

For the Riddlers had always been told not to look above oneself, as their majesty had been personally practicing.

Many rules were enforced by their majesty more thoroughly than by others.

Yu Ziqing roamed around like a wanderer, and people had begun to fill in the blanks in their minds.

And indeed, this filling in the blanks was quite reasonable.

For Yu Ziqing really knew the most basic people and matters in Dadui far better than most Riddlers, because he actually walked through, mixed meals in various villages.

Yu Ziqing did not care about everyone’s shocked and surprised gaze, having agreed with Zhang, he no longer cared whether this identity would be exposed.

For even Emperor Zhen, Emperor Li, and many others already knew his identity.

There was actually no point in continuing to hide it.

It was better to come forth openly, agreeing to Zhang’s request, which was, to some degree, a reward for Zhang’s hard work.

Because Zhang didn’t care for any other form of compensation.

Yu Ziqing walked his steps proudly, step by step ascending the sacrificial altar.

The most qualified Zhang, holding the Twelve-Streamered Crown, was already waiting here.

No one could crown the present Yu Ziqing.

As Yu Ziqing was about to crown himself, he saw the power of the Dadui Divine Dynasty flowing, the glow on the Twelve-Streamered Crown floating on its own, settling upon Yu Ziqing’s head.

Dadui’s fate had waited for this day for so long, even more anxiously than Zhang.

As long as there was no formal coronation ceremony, no formal completion of the sacrifice, Yu Ziqing truly had the chance to simply quit if he wanted to.

Besides, Dadui owed Yu Ziqing, he didn’t have to pay any price.

Yu Ziqing never relied on Dadui’s support for cultivation, even to this day, Yu Ziqing hasn’t undergone Qi Refinement.

The refining of God doesn’t rely on anyone, and Body Refinement is something Yu Ziqing gradually worked on his own.

The Dao Court was also deduced by Yu Ziqing himself, originally should have borrowed Dadui’s power.

Unfortunately, by some twist of fate, the power of the Kun Character emerged.

The Dao Court apparently couldn’t carry the power of two characters at once.

If the fortune of Dadui had feelings, its mouth would be skewed with anger.

Having worked so hard for so long, only for the Kun Character to take a large advantage.

The exceedingly rare instances of borrowing Dadui Divine Dynasty’s power could be completely ignored.

How could it not be urgent?
