After the departure of the planet Venus, Daji couldn't help but ask, "Is the young master really an immortal?"
Xiaotian, the dog, also couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "Where did you get him from?"
At first, Fahai showed his spiritual light and realized that he had a connection with Qin Jun, so he came to pay his respects. Then Qin Jun went to take a bath and brought back an immortal, but who would believe such a story?
But upon further thought, Daji and Xiaotian found that they also felt destined to pay their respects to Qin Jun.
Qin Jun revealed a mysterious and inscrutable expression. He looked up, glanced at the blue sky, and his provocative posture made people want to punch him. He stared at the sky for ten seconds before sighing, "I don't know why I am so lucky. Wherever I go, there are strong people paying their respects to me. Indeed, the planet Venus is truly an immortal. He felt a connection with me while in seclusion overseas and came to support me from afar. Heaven has shown me favor!"
Xiaotian and Daji were speechless, and not far away, Jia Xun and Qin Yun exchanged a glance, both unable to believe what they saw in each other's eyes.
First, Guan Yu amazed the entire country, and now Qin Jun had two demon kings by his side. As soon as he left the capital, he subdued a demon beast at the Golden Core stage. Then a powerful expert at the Illusionary stage came to pay his respects. Now, there was a legendary immortal following Qin Jun. The power Qin Jun currently held was enough to sweep through many neighboring kingdoms.
"Thank goodness we didn't become his enemies," Qin Yun thought to himself. His gaze involuntarily turned to the temporary grave built by the guards for Qin Yu. A mocking smile appeared on his face. Qin Yu had been domineering for many years, and he deserved such an end. Instead of feeling sorry for him, Qin Yun was filled with schadenfreude.
Because he knew that if Qin Yu ascended the throne, the other princes would not have a good future.
Qin Jun was different. With the power he currently held, he could easily seize the throne at any time and even effortlessly crush the other princes. But he didn't do that. Killing Qin Yu was also because Qin Yu had repeatedly plotted against him, and he deserved to die.
"It's amazing how he can attract so many strong people with just a few words. The Third Prince is even more formidable than the founding emperor!" Qin Yun admired Qin Jun, while Jia Xun's expression was complex. He understood that the Kingdom of Qianyue would be turned upside down because of Qin Jun. However, from the kingdom's perspective, it was a good thing because the power Qin Jun held was indeed too strong!
But if Qin Jun ascended the throne, could he still keep his position as the Grand Tutor?
Soon, Taibai Venus returned carrying the unconscious Fahai. At this moment, Fahai no longer had the dignified appearance of a high monk. Although his robe was not torn, it was covered in mud, and his face was stained with blood, which made Daji and Xiaotian twitch at the corners of their mouths.
They knew that the gap in strength between them and Fahai was not that big, and they dared not imagine what their fate would be if they faced Taibai Venus. It was probably not much better than Fahai's.
"Is he going to die?" Qin Jun's heart skipped a beat. Although he detested Fahai's hatred of demons, Fahai was not a wicked person. On the contrary, he treated humans with kindness. Most importantly, he had the strength of the Illusionary stage, and it would be a pity if he died!
Taibai Venus chuckled and said, "A cultivator at the Illusionary stage wouldn't die so easily." As he spoke, he took out a small white jade bottle and poured out a small pill to feed Fahai.
Qin Jun's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Can you refine pills?"
When it came to pill refining, people first thought of the Supreme Old Lord. Both the Supreme Old Lord and Taibai Venus belonged to Taoism, so perhaps they both knew how to refine pills.
"No, I bought this," Taibai Venus admitted frankly, disappointing Qin Jun.
Sun Wukong had an indestructible body, and even the Tathagata couldn't kill him; he could only suppress him under the Five-Finger Mountain. This was because the monkey had eaten countless pills from the Supreme Old Lord and had been refined in the pill furnace for forty-nine days. Qin Jun also wanted an indestructible body.
In countless novels and animations, the protagonists all had one characteristic: they couldn't be killed!
At this moment, Fahai, who had just taken the pill for less than ten seconds, unexpectedly woke up. This showed how miraculous Taibai Venus's pill was. Fahai got up from the ground and then sat down to adjust his breath. Qin Jun and the others did not disturb him.
After a while, Fahai opened his eyes and said, "I admit defeat. I won't argue against them staying by His Highness's side anymore. Thank you, Great Immortal, for not killing me!"
Fahai was not a fool. If Taibai Venus hadn't shown mercy in their previous confrontation, he would have been dead by now. During his meditation, Daji and Xiaotian also didn't take advantage of him. He was not a stubborn person who would persist regardless of the consequences.
In the story of the White Snake, the reason why Fahai was so stubborn was that no one could persuade him!
When the water flooded the Golden Mountain, Fahai's stubbornness led to the emergence of his inner demons, and he resorted to deceitful means to lure Xu Xian.
But in the early stages of the White Snake, Fahai was not bad.
Now, Taibai Venus's rebuke had instantly awakened Fahai. This was not the world of the White Snake. In this world full of gods and demons, the strong were respected!
All rules were made by the strong!
"Haha, the high monk only developed his biased views because of the influence of those evil spirits. In fact, if it weren't for Daji and Xiaotian, I would have died long ago. In addition, they also helped me get rid of many evildoers." Qin Jun was the first to laugh, resolving Fahai's embarrassment. He understood that Fahai was still very unhappy with Daji and Xiaotian, and only time could smooth out their grievances.
Fahai clasped his hands together, recited a Buddhist scripture, and said nothing more.
Seeing this, Qin Jun looked at Jia Xun and said with a smile, "Grand Tutor, let's continue forward. How about giving the Third Prince's carriage to the Great Immortal?"
"Of course!" Jia Xun quickly replied. With Taibai Venus present, even if the Emperor of Qianyue was angry at Qin Jun for Qin Yu's death, he would be helpless. Now, what he needed to do was to hold onto Qin Jun's thigh!
It's important to take sides early, or else you'll suffer unjust disasters!
After a brief rest, the group continued to move forward. Tai Bai Jin Xing sat in Qin Yu's carriage, while Fa Hai followed on foot. Originally, Qin Yu wanted him to ride on the horse, but Fa Hai politely declined, saying that walking a thousand miles was also a form of cultivation. It was evident that being defeated by Tai Bai Jin Xing had dealt a heavy blow to his confidence.
Qin Yu was in a good mood, so he sat on the horse pulling the carriage, occasionally humming a popular song. Although the surrounding guards found the tune strange, they couldn't help but find it oddly pleasant.
After about ten miles, Xue Dao Wang suddenly approached Qin Yu and gritted his teeth, saying, "Your Highness, I am the leader of the assassination organization under Qin Yu, Xue Dao Wang."
Qin Yu glanced at him indifferently and said, "What? Do you want to seek revenge on me?"
"How is that possible! I want to pledge allegiance to Your Highness. The Blood Blade organization is my life's work, but due to an accident, I was saved by Qin Yu and then brought my subordinates to pledge allegiance to him. The Blood Blade organization has expanded from a dozen people to hundreds, although it relies on Qin Yu. We have always wanted to break free from him, so we have to thank Your Highness for eliminating Qin Yu!" Xue Dao Wang explained, and these words were indeed sincere.
Especially with the appearance of An Xiao, Xue Dao Wang realized that he was just a tool of Qin Yu, summoned and dismissed at will.
