Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 1416 - 823 Let Your Immortal Buddha Make a Sound_2

Chapter 1416: Chapter 823 Let Your Immortal Buddha Make a Sound_2

In response to the same question, Shen Yi’s previous answer was... it should have ended.

This time, one "should" was missing.

...

The vast Imperial City gradually returned to calm.

Gu Li sat dazed outside the courtyard, their eyes vacant. The group of True Buddhas had already left the Divine Dynasty, rumored to have more important matters to attend to, such as pursuing the invincible criminal of the Immortal Court below First Rank.

The remaining Great Freedom Bodhisattvas were busy helping the Imperial Court rectify the political state.

No one was guarding this insignificant courtyard anymore, even though it concealed enough Emperor’s Aura to shake heaven and earth.

Because the key to activating this Emperor’s Aura was already firmly controlled by the Immortal Court.

This key now wore splendid clothes, sat high in the Jinluan Hall, worshipped by hundreds of officials, and was called the Human Emperor. It had entered the seat of Medicine King True Buddha, swallowed the Fruit Position Path, and would undoubtedly gain eternal life... until the day it lost its usefulness to the Two Sects.

The world seemed to gradually become peaceful.

Even Gu Li did not meet their demise.

This was the unimaginable confidence of the Immortal Buddhas, strong thus tolerant, capable of forgiving everything, because beneath them were mere ants, unable to shake them in the slightest.

But Gu Li still dared not step into this courtyard.

She didn’t know how to face that pool side, nor how to inform the lost souls of the former emperor what the Divine Dynasty had become.

"His Majesty summons the General, we ask the General to accompany us to the court."

Two monks appeared behind the woman, lifting the limp Gu Li up from the courtyard forcibly.

Creatures of the Red Dust should not fear and evade the Great Sect but should revere and submit, even if the heart does not submit... the mouth must!

This woman, as the Divine Dynasty General, how could she be absent from court assembly?

"..."

Gu Li’s gaze was vacant, her steps unsteady, dragged like a walking corpse along the long street, stumbling all the way into the deep palace.

The lights in Jinluan Hall were too bright, piercing her eyes.

The court officials wore appropriate attire, neatly lined on both sides, on the high steps paved with jade, a man’s head adorned with Imperial Crowns, sitting sternly on the throne.

Beside the man, Lin Shuya had changed into new clothes, standing gracefully and elegantly at a high place.

The Immortal Department no longer existed, naturally, he was no longer its head but was the Divine Dynasty’s Emperor’s Tutor, responsible for conveying the Immortal Court’s edicts to the Human World.

On the sides of the throne, they had meticulously crafted luxurious platforms, high and wide, even overshadowing the Human Emperor.

Azure smoke blurred mortal vision, Bodhisattvas sat within, observing every movement of the Red Dust.

"Please, General, join the ranks."

Lin Shuya’s expression was gentle, his words sincere.

The two monks directly pushed Gu Li into the crowd, forcing her to stand upright.

On the throne, the man watched all this coldly. He had once sat in this position for many years but never felt such a powerful strength.

Even with only thirty percent of the Emperor’s Aura’s effect, he felt as though he was about to ascend to immortality, his feet not touching the Red Dust.

He hardly dared to imagine, when mastering all of these powers, to what extent he should become formidable, especially since he had cultivated great skill, soon to possess immortal lifespan years.

This feeling, his father had experienced for so long, and finally it was his turn.

The Imperial Crowns slightly trembled, the man carefully touched the armrest of the throne, fearing to apply too much force, lest he break it and discover all of this was just a dream.

Lin Shuya was equally satisfied with the scene before him.

With the help of the Bodhi Sect, the court quickly stabilized the situation, the edicts spreading across the Four Continents, peace in the world was imminent, and everything was returning to normal, no one dared to voice any dissent.

And with the Three Immortals Sect drawing themselves out, similarly dispatching Immortals to the mortal realm, this stability would only rise further.

He cleared his throat, preparing to request Bodhisattva for initial guidance.

However, at that moment, the bright Azure Sky outside the hall suddenly dimmed slightly, as if brewing a storm and rain.

Lin Shuya frowned slightly with displeasure.

Now, the Divine Dynasty and Immortal Court co-governed the Human World, according to reason, the changes in the sky should also be controlled by them, at such a perfect time, how dare the heavens not cooperate?!

Meanwhile.

Ye Lan, hiding in the humble corner of the Imperial City, looked up somewhat numbly. When she saw the rolling black clouds enveloping the entire Imperial City at a visible speed, the despair in her eyes gradually faded.

She dashed out of the courtyard like a madwoman, pursuing the summit of the clouds towards the depths of the palace.

Relying on her cultivation, she overpowered all the guards on her path, and like someone who had lost her mind, she burst into the Imperial Palace, panting heavily as she stopped before the Jinluan Hall.

Those truly possessed with cultivation, whether it was the generals or the monks of the Bodhi Sect, looked on expressionlessly as she broke in.

The Emperor’s Tutor had already ordered her capture, but unexpectedly she had delivered herself right to their doorstep today.

"Heh."

Lin Shuya also noticed Ye Lan’s arrival and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh; without needing to give a command, a general imbued with Emperor’s Aura walked towards her, intending to capture her.

"..." Gu Li’s distracted gaze refocused, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately wanted to rush out of the crowd to stand in front of Ye Lan.

Lin Shuya might overlook others despite past grievances, but she would never spare the woman who once competed with him for the former emperor’s trust.

Unfortunately, Gu Li had already been stripped of the Emperor’s Aura; even with some martial skills, he was no more than a mere mortal and couldn’t possibly obstruct these generals and monks.

"Run!" She could only let out a hoarse shout.

However, Ye Lan seemed as if she hadn’t heard, continuing to stare straight at the sky curtain. After a long while, she suddenly withdrew her gaze, turned, and looked at Lin Shuya beside the throne, her parched throat slightly moving:

"Emperor’s Tutor... your time as Emperor’s Tutor is at an end."

The moment her words fell, the entire Imperial Court officials altered their expressions.

Who didn’t know that nowadays Lord Lin couldn’t even be considered one rank below the top; he was only beneath the Immortal Court, yet above all in the Red Dust!

A fleeting hint of murderous intent flashed through Lin Shuya’s eyes.

He certainly wouldn’t care about the mad ramblings of a crazy woman; under the watchful eyes of countless Immortal Buddhas, who could possibly challenge his position?

Who would dare!

"Detain her and await His Majesty’s decision." Lin Shuya casually waved his sleeve robe.

Just then, the surrounding crowd all froze in place.

In the vast Jinluan Hall, a tall figure had appeared at some unknown time.

He stood quietly before Ye Lan, his black hair was neatly smooth under the golden hairpin, his luxurious Xuan Shang adding to his nobility, yet only his fair face carried a few traces of an unapproachable coldness.

The court officials dared not act rashly; after all, the newcomer resembled a figure of an Immortal Master, perhaps an Immortal Official sent by the Three Immortals Sect?

"Master Lin..." The man on the throne was already somewhat bewildered by the scene before him, only able to turn his head doubtfully.

Lin Shuya’s pupils narrowed like needles; though the young man had changed his attire, he instantly recognized that familiar face.

This was the one who had saved the Southern Continent, yet ignored his invitation, that arrogant youth.

Wasn’t this boy supposed to be avoiding pursuit from Southern Sumeru, fleeing to other places to save himself, how could he appear here?!

But the situation at this moment was already different.

The Four Continents no longer needed people to garrison, and he was no longer the head of the Immortal Department who needed to intercept this person by nightfall for conversation.

"Who allowed you to enter the palace?"

Unhurriedly, Lin Shuya adjusted his attire, stepping down the long stairs.

When the Divine Dynasty and the Immortal Court were at odds, this person was the General of Southern Defense; but now, within this Human World ruled jointly by gods and humans, this person was freely breaking the Immortal and Mortal Alliance as a criminal.

This individual was the one who had once met the former emperor, was privy to those matters, and still had the opportunity to speak out; only he was left.

That also meant that whatever Lin Shuya called him, he would be.

"Can you bear the consequences of disturbing the Immortal Buddhas?"

At this moment, Lin Shuya was utterly fearless; his voice was calm, not to mention, there were four Great Freedom Bodhisattvas seated on the altar behind him.

Even if the opponent had some skills, he was merely a Third Grade General of Southern Defense, easily suppressed with a flick of a finger; what waves could he stir?

"You seem quite afraid of the Immortal Buddhas?"

Under the suspicious gaze of the crowd, Shen Yi slowly walked towards Lin Shuya, slightly lowered his gaze, his lips curled lightly, and said softly: "Go on, let them take a breath, let me hear."

As the two stood so closely, Lin Shuya suddenly felt a chilling cold envelop his heart, causing his fingertips to tremble slightly.

What terrified him even more was the eerie silence behind him.

Lin Shuya stiffly turned his head.

He saw the high altar above, the blue smoke gradually dispersing, and the four Great Freedom Bodhisattvas all wore expressions of utter terror, their faces twitching and convulsing, as if they had seen some monstrous flood beast, their bodies stiff as stakes, not daring to breathe.
