I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years!-Book 7: Chapter 4: Leave Everything To Me
Book 7: Chapter 4: Leave Everything To Me
In the heavenly palace, Eastern Emperor Taiyi quietly listened to the report from the gods below, saying nothing.
A solemn atmosphere lingered in the entire hall. Except for Jiang Lan and Bai Qiuran, other righteous gods of the nine divisions, the five Heavenly Kings, the remaining gods of the 33 layers of heaven, and the great steward of the emperor, Lu Wu, all were gathered here.
But at this moment, these high-ranking and mighty gods, all had their heads down and didn’t dare to take a breath.
“Really? The Goddess of Plague and Poison and Mighty Marshal of the Eastern Army are rebelling…”
After a long time, Eastern Emperor Taiyi sighed:
“Jiang Lan was in my expectation, but Marshal Bai actually rebelled with her… It seems that my worry was true. Marshal Bai’s true identity is actually a human.”
After a moment, he asked aloud:
“Lu Wu, what was the result of the purge?”
“Your Majesty, judging from the feedback from all over the world, there are no human settlements on the earth, and all human settlements have been smoothly eliminated by us, but…”
Lu Wu hesitated and continued:
“It’s just because of the rebellion of Marshal Bai last night, many survivors have been rescued by him, and even the remnants of souls have been taken away from the place by him. None of the gods who participated in the encirclement and suppression of these settlements survived.”
Eastern Emperor Taiyi said in a deep voice:
“Marshal Bai is really cruel. During the time he served in the Heavenly Palace, I treated him well.”
After murmured, he asked again:
“What is the condition of the shrine on land that I gave to Marshal Bai?”
Lu Wu lowered his head and replied:
“It has been taken over by the Divine Army, but… all the mortal servants inside have disappeared. They should have been taken away by Marshal Bai.”
“Did Tian Ting and Di Shi track down the whereabouts of Marshal Bai?”
“…No.”
Looking at Lu Wu who had his head down, Eastern Emperor Taiyi who was sitting behind the curtain took a deep breath.
“So, how many humans are brought to the heavens and raised in captivity?”
“There are about 1000 people, all are women and young children, but…”
Lu Wu hesitated a little, and said hesitantly:
“After returning, I used some to reward the soldiers…”
“Recover it all.”
Eastern Emperor Taiyi said mercilessly:
“At this juncture, I can’t tolerate you fooling around again. Lu Wu, this matter is left to you to deal with, and recover all those humans back. Raising them and letting them multiply, they will be against the rebel Bai Qiuran. In addition, to pass on my will, the nine divisions of the sky, the entire army under the five Heavenly Kings, immediately prepare for battle. Tian Ting and Di Shi must increase the search efforts. Once the whereabouts of Bai Qiuran and Jiang Lan is found, report it immediately.”
“We will follow Your Majesty’s royal decree.”
All the gods in the temple bowed together.
No god has questioned Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s decision, not only because of his terrifying power and authority but also because they have participated in and witnessed the encirclement and suppression of that celebrity.
The gods who were present were well aware of the fragility of human beings, but at the same time, they were also well aware of how terrifying power is hidden in the fragile body of mankind.
——————-
After officially becoming Bai Qiuran’s disciple, Li accepted Bai Qiuran’s suggestion and changed his surname to Bai. From now on, his name has become Bai Li.
Just after the catastrophe, Bai Qiuran didn’t directly teach him the knowledge of cultivation, but asked him to cut wood and build a house in the nearby woods, and build a residence for himself in this valley first.
The best way to calm a person’s heart was to let them work so they didn’t have time to think. Bai Qiuran also hopes to take this opportunity to let Bai Li stabilize his mind.
Then he went to check Jiang Lan’s situation and found that there was nothing serious, so he went out by himself and went back to the shrine. Taking the chance Heavenly Court hadn’t sent someone to take over his original residence yet, he picked up all the maids and attendants who were originally in the shrine.
He put them into the world of the picture, let them live with their ethnic groups, and then brought the human maids into the valley, and ordered them to take care of Jiang Lan’s daily life.
As for the remaining humans, after being sealed in the picture, they fell into a dormant state under the effect of his spells. Bai Qiuran was not ready to wake them up at this moment, as they did not have the ability to protect themselves.
At noon, Jiang Lan woke up and turned around. She was served by the maids and taken outside the house. Then she saw Bai Qiuran who was setting up a stove outside the house to make soup.
“Are you awake?”
Seeing Jiang Lan coming out, Bai Qiuran walked over, took her from the maid, and helped her to sit down where she was originally sitting.
“I just went out to hunt a beast, and found that there were some nourishing medicinal materials nearby, so I brought them to make soup. Drink more, this is good for your body.”
“Ok.”
Jiang Lan, who had lost her divine power, seemed particularly obedient and weak at this time.
Bai Qiuran picked up a wooden stick next to him, put it into the firewood under the clay pot, and looked at the indeterminate firework, he said:
“I asked Li to repair the house, and then we will stay here temporarily. You can rest and recuperate. I will teach you a method of exercise tomorrow.”
Jiang Lan took a sip of the hot soup, looking a little unwilling, but nodded honestly.
“You don’t have to worry about the human race’s matters, I will handle them.”
Bai Qiuran patted Jiang Lan’s palm.
“Don’t worry, leave everything to me.”
“I can’t put everything on your shoulders…”
After Jiang Lan hesitated for a moment, she said.
“We are husband and wife, aren’t we?”
Bai Qiuran looked at the campfire.
“Although each of us has our own reasons, after all, we all relied on our own wishes to bond with each other. It was neither Heaven nor the Eastern Emperor Taiyi who recognized the legality of this marriage, but you and me. Husband and wife should support each other, so even if we are a married couple in name only, you will give up your authority to make a sword for me. Thus when you are weak, I will naturally not abandon you.”
Jiang Lan hesitated for a while, then she finally nodded.
After she had eaten some more things, Bai Qiuran helped her back into the house, covered her with a quilt, and asked her to take a good rest.
Then he left the hut and walked to the back of the valley to find Bai Li who was building a house.
Walking to the place Bai Li chose, Bai Qiuran saw that some wood had been cut and piled on the ground in the surrounding forest, while there was a half-built wooden house on the ground, but he did not see Bai Li.
“Where is this brat?”
Bai Qiuran muttered:
“Don’t tell me he thinks about committing suicide?”
When he was about to release his Soul Awareness to search, Bai Li walked out of the forest beside him, looked at him, and said:
“Master, are you looking for me?”
Bai Qiuran breathed a sigh of relief and then asked:
“Where have you been?”
“I was hungry, but I didn’t dare to disturb you and master’s wife, so I went to the woods to get some edible fruits.”
Bai Li’s hand is holding a pile of leaves, and there are some red fruits in the leaves.
He grabbed one and handed it to the animal on his shoulder. Bai Qiuran only noticed that the little monkey who was inseparable from him, unexpectedly ran back, and was now squatting on his shoulder.
When the human race was in trouble before, he didn’t see Bai Li with the monkey next to him. Bai Qiuran thought it was also killed by the gods, but he didn’t expect it to escape in the end.
“It’s fine, if you are hungry in the future, tell me directly.”
Bai Qiuran said something.
“Come here first, I will teach you something.”
