Singing and Dancing (Second Update!)
Chapter 925: Peace and Prosperity (Second Update!)
Although Yue Tianzun is a disabled person with useless legs, she is the most ancient Tianzun after all.
Even though she has been in seclusion for many years, she should not be underestimated.
The space near Yao Chi was almost completely shattered by these terrifying existences, leaving only the island where Man Huilang Pavilion was located as a safe haven.
Standing on the island and looking out, the space shattered into countless pieces, forming a terrible space storm that was rolling wildly, while those horrible beings stood still in the broken space turbulence.
This scene was so horrifying that it gave Qin Mu and the others an illusion that the outside world had been destroyed and only their isolated island remained.
"If the Heavenly Lord War breaks out, I'm afraid Heaven will be completely destroyed."
Qin Mu kicked the sleeping Long Qilin and said with regret, "It's a pity that we can't fight."
Long Qilin woke up, looked around, and asked in surprise: "Master, it's not over yet?"
Qin Mu nodded, and Long Qilin fell asleep on the ground again.
Yun Jianli smiled and said, "This guy is so lucky that he can still sleep."
Long Qilin opened his sleepy eyes and said in a muffled voice, "If the sky falls, the leader will hold it up. If the leader dies, I can't survive, so I might as well just go to sleep."
Everyone burst into laughter.
But if you think about it carefully, what Long Qilin said does make sense.
The current situation is no longer under their control. Even Qin Mu, the culprit who started this incident that tore apart the heavenly court, is unable to influence the trend at this moment.
No matter how much they care about the situation, they have no way to change its course, so worrying is useless.
However, Long Qilin was able to still sleep at this critical moment of life and death. This ability is truly admirable.
"There are already ten Heavenly Lords, six of whom are Heavenly Lords in the Heaven Court."
Yun Jianli analyzed: "In this case, there are still four Tianzuns in the Heavenly Court, and they still have an overwhelming advantage. Mu Tianzun, the situation has not really become bright and optimistic. If a few more Tianzuns appear, will you have reinforcements? Will Qin Tianzun appear?"
Qin Mu smiled slightly: "Kaihuang is guarding Wuyou Township. He would not appear before, and he will not appear now. Besides, who said that the remaining four Tianzuns would definitely not help me?"
Yun Chuxiu, who was not far away, was slightly startled and looked at him, as if thinking about something.
Among the ten celestial masters in heaven, Hao, Huo, Xiao, Zu, Lang, Qiang, Yan, Hong, Xu and Gong, only the Ancestral God King revealed his true face. Others did not reveal their true faces in order to avoid giving their political enemies the handle to kill Lord Mu.
And the emperor and empress are hiding among them, helping Qin Mu.
The emperor and empress helped Qin Mu because Madam Yuanmu's body was in Qin Mu's hands, and she was worried that her sister would be resurrected, so she had to help.
Qin Mu vowed that someone would help him, so which one of the Ten Heavenly Lords would be the one to help him?
The Ten Heavenly Lords of Heaven have never been a whole.
In the past, everyone was arguing with each other and tripping each other up. Not long ago, Lord Haotian drove the most powerful artifact to the human world, but was forced back, causing the metaverse to fall into the hands of others?
Another Heavenly Lord came, and even the island where the Man Huilang Pavilion was located could not bear it. The edge of the island began to collapse, and the rocks continued to shatter into powder.
The palace maids on the island screamed and retreated, rushing towards the Man Huilang Pavilion to avoid being wiped out by the terrifying aura of the Heavenly Masters.
Although the Man Huilang Pavilion where Qin Mu is located is on the seaside, it is secretly protected by Tian Gong, Tu Bo, the Emperor and the Empress, so the situation will not affect here for a while.
However, the arrival of this Heavenly Lord disrupted the balance once again. The island where they were located would not be able to hold out for long before being ground down to ashes, and they would be shattered along with their bodies and souls!
At this time, another Heavenly Lord descended and came to Yaohai.
His arrival restored balance to the situation and the island was no longer broken.
"Among the Ten Heavenly Lords, there are actually people who stand against the Heavenly Court!"
A celestial master whose face was hidden in the heavy light laughed coldly and said, "We usually call each other fellow Taoists, but I didn't expect that you can only see the face but not the heart. However, you are still a minority!"
At this time, another Heavenly Lord descended, the balance was broken again, and the island continued to collapse!
However, just as this Heavenly Lord stopped, another Heavenly Lord came, and the situation was balanced again, and the collapse of the island stopped immediately.
The ten great celestial masters of heaven are all present!
Together with Tian Gong, Tu Bo, You Tian Zun and Yue Tian Zun, there are a total of fourteen most powerful ones!
Yun Jianli was filled with emotion and sighed, "This kind of scene is rare to see. It is a grand scene that has never been seen before. If fourteen Heavenly Lord-level beings start fighting, it will definitely be unprecedentedly magnificent!"
"Bullshit!"
Qi Jiuyi was so angry that spit was everywhere. He said angrily: "Now we should beg and plead with them not to do it! If they do, we will all die very quickly! Second brother, your uncle is still sleeping! Now the problem is how to end it!"
Qin Mu suddenly said: "If you think about it, only His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, who rules the entire Heaven, can stop this dispute. Perhaps, the Emperor of Heaven's will will come here soon."
Everyone was filled with awe; after all, the Emperor of Heaven was still the Lord of Heaven, and all gods, no matter if they were ancient or celestial, were his subjects.
Although the Emperor of Heaven has not been involved in state affairs in recent years and handed over the government to the Ten Heavenly Lords, and although Tu Bo and Tian Gong rarely obey the orders of the Emperor of Heaven, he is still the nominal ruler of Heaven after all.
If he came forward, he would definitely be able to stop this dispute.
However, Qin Mu and the Emperor and Empress both knew very well that the Ancient God Emperor, the nominal ruler of Heaven, had died in the Longhan era. The reason why Heaven still retained the Ancient God Emperor as the nominal ruler was only because of the issue of interest distribution among the Ten Heavenly Lords.
If there is no ancient god Emperor of Heaven, then who among the ten of them will be the Emperor of Heaven?
They must maintain their identity as the Ancient God and Heavenly Emperor, continue to weaken the power of the ancient gods, while strengthening their own power. Only when their own strength and power surpass those of the other nine people, can they depose the Ancient God and Heavenly Emperor and proclaim themselves emperor.
If they cannot do this, none of the ten of them will take the initiative to expose the fact that the Ancient God Emperor is dead. They will still recognize the Ancient God Emperor as the common ruler of the world.
——As for Yun Jianli, he didn’t know that the Ancient God Emperor Tian was dead, and the Yun family didn’t pass this matter down.
Because the death of the ancient god Emperor Tian was of too great a consequence, if the Yun family had passed this matter down, the Yun family would have been exterminated long ago and would not have become a major family in Heaven.
Sometimes only ignorance can survive, this is an unwritten rule in heaven.
Suddenly, a voice came to break the deadlock in Yaohai: "The Holy Emperor has issued an order! Mu Tianzun has worked hard and made great contributions. He has come up from the lower world without any complaints. I will give him fine wine and beautiful women to reward him!"
Yun Chuxiu glanced at Qin Mu, and Qin Mu smiled.
Yun Chuxiu snorted.
Above the Yaochi Lake, a celestial being snorted coldly, retreated into the darkness, and disappeared without a trace. The thousand-mile peach forest also disappeared rapidly, and finally the peach forest and the palace in it disappeared one after another, leaving only a peach blossom floating in the air, spinning away.
The other Heavenly Lords disappeared one after another. Tian Gong turned into a stream of light and soared into the sky. Tu Bo sank into darkness. You Tianzun's paper boat sailed into Youdu. Soon it was empty, leaving only the ruined Yaohai. The turbulent space could not calm down for a moment.
Many divine soldiers and generals lined up neatly, supporting a priest who broke through the broken space torrent and landed on the island with great effort. Holding the imperial edict in his hand, he shouted loudly: "Mu Tianzun, accept the edict!"
Behind him followed some beautiful palace maids, holding various treasures given by the Emperor of Heaven, including fine wine and delicacies, various rare treasures, and some of them were treasures bestowed by the Emperor of Heaven to Qin Mu.
Qin Mu bowed and said in a clear voice: "Your Majesty, I accept your order."
The priest placed the imperial edict in his hand and said hurriedly, "Heavenly Lord, please get up quickly. You are the Heavenly Lord, just act like one, no one can accept your courtesy. Someone, clean up the Heavenly Lord's resting place!"
Many divine soldiers and generals took out various treasures, captured the broken pieces of space one by one, refined them together, and repaired the Yao Chi. Some divine soldiers and generals took out the treasures of creation, created land, and made islands. They were busy here and there, but did not make any sound.
Some people also found many corpses in the broken Yaochi Lake and ordered people to load them onto ships and transport them out for burial.
This was obviously not the first time that Heavenly Court had encountered such a thing, so they were well prepared and therefore handled things in an orderly manner.
There were some fairies dancing in the sky. The sound of drums and music was very pleasant to the ears, and their dancing postures were graceful and moving. It was a scene of prosperity and peace.
The priest was courteous to Qin Mu and said with a smile, "Mu Tianzun has not been back to heaven for a long time. Are you used to living here now? The Holy Emperor is worried that Tianzun may not have enough to eat or sleep well, so he sent some women to Tianzun for him to enjoy. If Tianzun needs anything else, just tell me. Although I cannot make the decision, I can report it to the Holy Emperor, and he will definitely not neglect it."
Qin Mu looked at the palace maids and said with a smile: "There are already enough palace maids in Yaochi, why bother with this?"
The priest didn't seem to understand and asked in confusion, "The maids in Yaochi? Where are there maids in Yaochi? It is precisely because Yaochi is empty and has no one to serve that the Holy Emperor ordered me to bring some people to serve the Heavenly Lord."
Qin Mu was stunned for a moment, then heard a scream and turned around in a hurry.
I saw many divine soldiers and generals who came with the priests were capturing the palace maids of Yao Chi. After locking up those women, they directly beheaded them, annihilated their souls, and beat them to death.
Those divine soldiers and generals acted quickly. They slaughtered all the palace maids, dragged the bodies of many palace maids from Yao Chi, threw them onto the boat, and ordered their men to take them away.
There were still goddesses dancing in the sky, the sacred music was melodious, the songs were still being sung, the dances were still being performed, and those dancers and actors seemed unable to see the river of blood flowing below.
Qin Mu felt a chill in his heart and turned to look at the priest beside him.
The priest smiled and whispered, "Tonight they heard words they shouldn't have heard and saw things they shouldn't have seen, so they must be punished. Your Majesty, please don't blame them, and don't embarrass me. This is customary."
Qin Mu fell silent.
What is scary is not the words of the priest, but the convention.
He looked at Qi Jiuyi and Yun Jianli, and the two of them did not express anything. It was obvious that to them, such things happening in Heaven were already commonplace, and this was the most terrifying thing.
"Reform and reform, we must not only change the Taoism and magical powers, but also change this terrible mindset. If we only change the Taoism and magical powers without changing this mindset, even if we overthrow this corrupt heaven, we will only build an even more corrupt heaven!"
He felt a little sad.
From the idea that human life is more important than heaven that was promoted in the Shanghuang era, to the idea that man is his own god and is used by man that was promoted in the Kaihuang era, to the idea that breaking the gods in one's heart and the way of sages lies in the daily life of the people that was pursued by Yankang, generations of people have fought for it and shed blood and sacrificed for it.
However, this concept has never reached the heaven!
If reform is merely a change of Taoist laws and magical powers, it can never be called reform!
"What is the Heavenly Lord thinking about?" the priest asked with a smile.
"I was wondering..."
Qin Mu's face was calm, but beneath the calm surface was surging magma, like a volcano about to erupt: "Sooner or later I will smash this corrupt world to pieces."
The priest was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "The Lord's idea is good, but no one can resist the overwhelming force. Hurry up!"
He shouted to the divine soldiers and generals: "Clean this place up! Don't delay Tianzun's rest!"
Not long after, the darkness that shrouded the Yao Chi dissipated, and the Yao Chi was refreshed. The Yao Chi was like the sea, vast and boundless. It turned out that the divine tortoises that carried the sacred mountains and islands here had died in the battle that night. At this moment, Heavenly Court had gotten another batch of divine tortoises from somewhere, and moved some sacred mountains and islands from somewhere, and let these divine tortoises still carry the sacred mountains and islands and swim in the Yao Sea.
There are also some goddesses planting giant lotus flowers, which are in full bloom. Many petite girls transformed from flower elves live in the kingdom of flowers. They sit on the beach, wash their feet and hair, play the piano and sing. The scenery is beautiful.
The priest bowed to Qin Mu and said, "God of Heaven, this place has basically been restored to its original state. Are you satisfied?"
