Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

Chapter 316: Killing with a borrowed knife?

"Master, what are you looking at?" the emperor asked doubtfully.

"Haha, it's nothing."

Qingjingzi smiled lightly and said: "I just heard that Lord Wenquxing is in Dongming City, so I want to see if I can find him."

"Have you found the Imperial Master?"

"No, he seems to be hiding himself."

Qingjingzi shook his head: "Let's get down to business, Your Majesty. Pindao will set up the formation outside the city later, and then Your Majesty will live in the formation."

"It's safer this way. At least you don't have to worry about being infected by that weird 'plague'."

"Okay, everything will be arranged by the Imperial Master."

Inside the city.

Under the incense peach tree, Zhao Mu and Liu Dun sat opposite each other, while Jiang Hongyun was making tea next to them.

Suddenly, Liu Dun seemed to feel a gaze and turned his head to look outside the city.

"Sir, they are already here."

"Well, do you feel it? What kind of cultivation level?"

"That Qingjingzi should have a cultivation level of manifesting the spirit realm, and is no weaker than me. As for his disciples, there is nothing to fear. The strongest ones are only at the Yuanshen realm."

Liu Dun replied.

"Shen Shen Realm? It seems that a master is here."

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Have you sensed anything weird about him?"

"No, at least for now, in my perception, he is just a normal immortal cultivator, there is nothing weird about him."

Liu Dun shook his head: "Sir, do you need a disciple to take action and test him?"

"There is news from the capital that this Qingjingzi came to Dongming City after receiving a revelation from heaven."

"It's simply ridiculous. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? We live in Dongming City and he happened to come to Dongming City?"

"In my opinion, he came just for us."

"No rush, let's see what he does next."

Zhao Mu smiled lightly and said: "Qingjingzi is not the focus, the focus is the people behind him. The results we are waiting for are almost here."

"Haha, I really want to see who the person behind this is?"

"He has done so many things in a roundabout way, but I don't know what his purpose is?"

After the emperor arrived at Dongming City, officials from nearby cities were very discerning and came to pay their respects.

So for a time, many big shots suddenly gathered in Dongming City, which had been silent in the past.

According to court practice, after the emperor left the capital, wherever he stationed, he would entertain local dignitaries and nobles to show his favor.

This time is no exception.

On the third day after the emperor came to Dongming City, he held a grand banquet and invited all the dignitaries of Dongming City and other nearby cities to come to the banquet.

For a time, the camp outside Dongming City was in full swing and the lights were brightly lit.

However, many people noticed that as the only god in Hanhai Kingdom today, Wenquxingjun Liu Dun, who lives in Dongming City, was not invited.

As for whether the emperor forgot or deliberately failed to invite him, everyone is not a fool, so how could he not guess it?

As for the grievances between the emperor and Liu Dun, the dignitaries knew all about it.

It can be said that Liu Dun's existence itself was the biggest stain in this life for the emperor.

Therefore, it is normal for the emperor not to like Liu Dun.

What the powerful people didn't expect was that the relationship between the emperor and Liu Dun had become so bad?

So that the emperor is not even willing to maintain superficial intimacy?

But no one in the powerful family dared to say anything about this.

After all, neither the emperor nor Liu Dun were the ones they could afford to offend.

On this matter, everyone wisely chose to keep silent to avoid getting into trouble.

In the camp.

The banquet has been laid out, and the dignitaries are sitting down, waiting for the emperor who will appear last.

At this time, in the emperor's tent, the third prince hurried over, trying to persuade the emperor not to break up with Liu Dun so quickly.

"Father, do you really not invite Liu Dun?"

"What, do you think I should invite him?"

The emperor sneered and said: "It's a joke. I am the king of a country. I have clearly arrived in Dongming City, but that Liu Dun didn't come to see me at all."

"What does he mean?"

"Even if he has been canonized as a god, he is still a subject of our Hanhai Kingdom, and I am still his king."

"As a minister, the king is here, but he didn't come to see me immediately, which shows that in his heart, he doesn't take me seriously at all."

"Hmph, why should I invite such a man to a banquet with no king or father?"

"But……"

The third prince said helplessly: "But after all, he is very powerful and has the ability to defeat an army with one person. So before we have no strength to deal with him, it is best for us to maintain a superficial closeness with him."

"Otherwise, if he becomes dissatisfied and desperately breaks into the camp to kill the king, wouldn't my father be in danger?"

"After all, my father had already humiliated his mentor once when he withdrew his canonization decree."

"Now that he's being slighted again, there's no guarantee he can hold back and not take action."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

But the emperor burst out laughing at the third prince's worries.

He shook his head: "Your Majesty, do you know that my father is actually looking forward to Liu Dun and rushes into the camp desperately."

"What?"

The third prince was stunned and asked, is his father crazy?

Liu Dun is no longer the mortal he once was, but a god with the power to reach heaven and earth.

If Liu Dun really went crazy and rushed in to kill people, how could they stop him?

"Haha, Your Majesty, have you forgotten? We now have a national master."

The emperor smiled and said: "The Imperial Master has said that he has set up an extremely dangerous formation around this camp."

"According to the National Master, this formation is quite powerful. Even if a monk with a higher level of cultivation than him comes in, he will die without a burial place."

"So I am really looking forward to Liu Dun rushing into the camp regardless of the risk. In this way, I may be able to watch with my own eyes that annoying guy die in front of me."

So the emperor had this intention?

He wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and use Qingjingzi to get rid of Liu Dun.

The third prince frowned slightly: "Father, is the Imperial Master really sure of killing Liu Dun?"

"Yes, the Imperial Master said that Liu Dun is not a real god. In the world of immortal cultivation, there is actually only one kind of god that can be recognized by all monks, and that is the end point of monks' cultivation - human gods."

"The National Master said that human gods are second only to immortals. Only one can appear in each era. In this era, no one has been able to prove the human gods."

"As for Liu Dun's so-called gods, they are just deceiving us mortals. In the eyes of real immortal cultivators, it is just a way of cultivation that is different from the immortal way."

"And in the world of immortality, cultivation of the immortal way is the orthodox one, while the cultivation of the Shinto is just a heretic."

"The Imperial Master said that although he has not actually met Liu Dun, he can vaguely feel that he is probably equivalent to the cultivation level of the Manifestation of Gods."

"If someone with this kind of cultivation dares to enter the camp, there is no way they can resist his formation."

"That's why I deliberately didn't invite Liu Dun today. I just wanted to see if he would break into the camp to question me because he was dissatisfied."

"But unfortunately, he never showed up."
