"Has the demon lord taken over the body?"
Ren Hai furrowed his brows and muttered, causing a commotion in the entire hall. This was a bombshell!
"Elder monk, are your words true or false?" A true immortal strongman stood up and pointed at Sang Liang, asking. This matter was of great importance. If the Qin Emperor was really taken over by the demon lord, they could use this to their advantage and report it to the Holy Emperor.
It's not that they couldn't handle it, but the sudden emergence of the demon lord was a game-changer. When combined with the entire righteous path, even the mighty Qin Emperor would have to kneel!
"Of course it's true. In the name of Buddha's compassion, we must uphold justice!" a monk behind Sang Liang spoke in a deep voice, his righteous and resolute appearance leaving the cultivators of the Righteous Alliance speechless.
Sang Liang knew they didn't believe these high-sounding words, so he explained, "Have any of you heard of the Death Valley in the unclaimed territory? I personally witnessed the demon lord taking over the body of the Qin Emperor. He is an ancient demon lord. If he regains his peak strength, the Southern Domain will surely face catastrophe!"
Death Valley!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was moved. They had all heard of the legend of Death Valley. After all, Death Valley was one of the most famous forbidden places in the unclaimed territory, where opportunities and dangers coexisted. Cultivators who ventured into the unclaimed territory would all make a trip to Death Valley.
They had been young once and had also been to Death Valley.
Ren Hai's brows furrowed even tighter. He was not only shocked by the fact that the Qin Emperor had been taken over, but also surprised by the strength of Sang Liang and his four burly monks behind him. The aura emanating from them even made him feel a sense of palpable threat. This meant that the four burly monks would pose a life-threatening danger to him.
"Which Buddhist sect do you belong to?" Ren Hai asked, shifting the focus back to Sang Liang and his companions.
Facing the scrutiny of everyone in the Righteous Alliance, Sang Liang chuckled softly and said, "The Western Buddhist Sect!"
The four words silenced the entire hall!
...
In the Great Qin Kingdom, in the capital's military camp.
"If you encounter suitable talents, remember to send them to the unclaimed territory. I urgently need talents over there," Qin Jun said as he strolled, followed by Tai Bai Jin Xing, Jia Xun, Shen Yan, and a group of high-ranking officials of the Great Qin. They all took his every word seriously.
The current Qin Jun was no longer the frivolous prince he used to be. Every word and action carried great imperial authority, making them not dare to slack off.
"Starting tomorrow, we will begin selecting talents, and we will not neglect this task," Jia Xun quickly assured.
Qin Jun nodded. Anything he said would be done by his subordinates, and that feeling was the most satisfying.
"Your Majesty, the recent commotion you caused is quite significant. I'm afraid..." Tai Bai Jin Xing hesitated and said.
Qin Jun couldn't help but stop and turn to look at him, smiling as he asked, "Tai Bai Jin Xing, have you foreseen something?"
Tai Bai Jin Xing was stronger in divination than Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen, and not just by a little bit.
"To be honest, Your Majesty, I hope you won't blame me, but I have indeed foreseen some troubles," Tai Bai Jin Xing said through gritted teeth. With the number of people under Qin Jun who were stronger than him, he was afraid of provoking Qin Jun.
Qin Jun waved his hand and smiled, "Unpleasant truths are still truths. How could I blame you?"
The others all looked at Tai Bai Jin Xing curiously, wondering what he had foreseen.
"I have foreseen a great danger for Your Majesty in the coming year," Tai Bai Jin Xing said through gritted teeth.
Upon hearing this, Qin Jun's pupils contracted, and the others secretly marveled. How could you dare to say that?
Qin Jun didn't get angry. Indeed, he had offended quite a few forces recently. The Demon Nine Lords would probably be displeased with him due to the attack by the Demon Lord of the Flat Sky. Not to mention the deep-seated hatred, there was also the immensely powerful Western Buddhist Sect, a terrifying force with the presence of the Buddha. He had recently offended the Righteous Alliance, and it might even provoke the Holy Emperor.
Damn it!
Upon careful consideration, the calm surface was already turbulent underneath.
Qin Jun furrowed his brows tightly, making the others dare not even breathe heavily.
"Don't worry, I will have good fortune," Qin Jun said with a bright smile after a moment of silence, and then walked resolutely through the teleportation gate without looking back.
Even if he faced countless demons and enemies, he would remain unyielding. Even in death, he would maintain the posture of a hero.
Watching Qin Jun's resolute figure disappear into the teleportation gate, Jia Xun couldn't help but lament to Tai Bai Jin Xing, "Tai Bai, how could you be so direct?"
"Don't worry, our Majesty is not an ordinary emperor. Didn't you sense the aura he exuded just now? It's a kind of fearless and powerful self-confidence," Tai Bai Jin Xing shook his head and smiled, leaving everyone in a state of confusion.
Was it really?
...
Back in the Shashen City, Qin Jun once again went to the city lord's mansion to practice.
Nezha walked in, munching on an apple, and asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, why are you so diligent?"
As a fifth-level Golden Immortal in the Great Southern Domain, Nezha considered himself invincible.
So he was quite puzzled as to why Qin Jun was so diligent. As an emperor, having strong subordinates should be enough, right?
"I'm just bored," Qin Jun said, smiling as he absorbed qi, his eyes still closed.
However, Nezha, prompted by Tai Bai Jin Xing's words, felt a shadow hanging over his heart.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to go and take down the Righteous Alliance alone?" Nezha shrugged and asked, "I'm also bored."
What the heck!
Qin Jun instinctively wanted to refuse. Come on, if Nezha really did that, he and the Righteous Alliance would really be at each other's throats.
Qin Jun was about to refuse, but then he thought, "Damn it, I've offended quite a few forces recently. The Demon Nine Lords will probably be displeased with me due to the attack by the Demon Lord of the Flat Sky. Not to mention the deep-seated hatred, there is also the immensely powerful Western Buddhist Sect, a terrifying force with the presence of the Buddha.

"Ding! Triggering the side mission - Alliance of the Righteous and Buddhists! Mission details: The Western Buddhist sect and the Alliance of the Righteous have joined forces, ready to battle the host together. At the same time, they will spread the news of the host being possessed by a demon! If the host defeats them, the host will receive one opportunity for divine and demonic summoning, one opportunity for a divine and demonic instance, and one opportunity for searching for talents!"
"Special reminder, any slight carelessness will attract the rejection and even pursuit of the entire righteous path!"
Damn it!
The consecutive sounds of the system prompts made Qin Jun curse in his heart. The Western Buddhist sect actually intervened at this time!
And they even want to spread rumors that he has been possessed by a demon. By then, it may not be a situation where the righteous path is besieging him, but a situation where the righteous and demonic paths are joining forces...
"Good! You go now, remember, do not reveal your relationship with me." Qin Jun said with a dark face, "Drive the Alliance of the Righteous out of the unowned territory!"
Upon hearing this, Nezha's eyes lit up, immediately threw the apple in his hand, and said with a smile, "Good! I'll go now!"
After speaking, he leaped up, and the Wind and Fire Wheels instantly appeared under his feet, carrying him away into the sky.
Nezha himself is a belligerent person, and the troubles he caused for his parents when he was young were all due to his belligerent nature.
"If you are unrighteous, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Qin Jun muttered coldly. The Alliance of the Righteous and the Western Buddhist sect spreading rumors that he was possessed by a demon can be described as extremely malicious, and may even plunge the Great Qin Kingdom into turmoil. [End of this chapter]
