Chapter 326 1 years
Unbeknownst to him, Li Jie had been in a state of enlightenment for almost a year.
During this period, the soul-state 'Chaos' made several attempts to break through the spatial blockade of the Immortal-Trapping Sword.
Unfortunately, every time he plotted, it was thwarted by the four women working together.
The Great Xia continued to operate efficiently and rapidly as always.
It is worth mentioning that, with the help of his master, the Golden Cicada Grandmaster, Ye Fan successfully entered the realm of the Main God by using the Heaven and Earth Essence Liquid left behind by Li Jie.
He became one of only two people in the Great Xia Dynasty to ascend to immortality.
Ye Fan's successful ascension to immortality caused a great sensation not only in the country.
Even the gods of the outer realms were shocked.
What kind of opportunity did the Great Xia Dynasty have to successfully create two gods in less than three years?
Moreover, they all ascended to the divine realm by overcoming divine punishment with mortal bodies.
Correspondingly, the "ceiling" figures of those foreign countries are getting restless. If they could also enter the Great Xia and stay for a while, would they also be able to find an opportunity to ascend to immortality?
Unfortunately, after Li Jie disappeared in the South China Sea, Ye Fan summoned Zhou Ping, the Red Dust Sword Immortal, back from beyond the realm.
All the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty, except for the two of them, entered their final cycle of reincarnation once again.
In other words, only the two of them are currently capable of guarding the nation's borders.
Taking this opportunity, Ye Fan stepped down as the fifth Supreme Commander of the Great Xia Night Watchmen, handing over this heavy responsibility to Zuo Qing.
This gave the latter a real headache.
Previously, with Ye Fan and Li Jie sharing the burden, Zuo Qing was able to steal a moment to cultivate, and his cultivation level was already infinitely close to the human ceiling.
However, ever since he took over as the sixth commander-in-chief of the Great Night's Watch, he has never had a moment of rest.
That day, Zuo Qing was reviewing documents in his office when he suddenly received a battle report from [Masked] and [Nightfall].
Three months ago, a strong fluctuation of divine power came from Xiao Rizi's territory. Undercover agent Wu Xiangnan risked his life to send the message back. The message was very concise, with only nine words.
"Takamagahara has appeared; requesting assistance."
Without a second thought, Zuo Qing assigned [Mask] and [Nightfall] to Xiao Rizi to assist Wu Xiangnan in carrying out the mission.
He had his own reasons for doing so.
The captain of the Masked Ones, Wang Mian, has successfully reached the pinnacle of human power and is also an agent of the God of Time. In terms of strength, he is now no less capable than those second-rate gods. Furthermore... the item that the God of Time asked him to find is hidden in Takamagahara, which is another reason why Zuo Qing had to send him there.
Besides him, the members of [Masked] also lived up to expectations, all of them reaching the level of 'Klein'. Therefore, this special team is probably the most adaptable team among all special teams.
It is also of special significance to have Lin Qiye's team, Nightfall, participate in this operation. This team has caused quite a stir in Xiao Rizi before and is quite familiar with the situation there. Having them go along should reduce a lot of trouble.
But when Zuo Qing saw the battle report sent back by the Shangxie Society, his expression turned rather unpleasant.
[Top Secret Letter from the Shangxie Society:]
The sixth Supreme Commander of the Great Xia Night Watch, may this letter be a personal message.
Wu Xiangnan, a survivor of the 'Blue Rain' special squad, killed Susanoo, the supreme god of Takamagahara. Unable to withstand the power of the laws, his body collapsed and he died on the spot.
The mystery of the Crimson Moon is not yet over; strong divine energy fluctuations still linger in Takamagahara.
Please send someone stronger than the ceiling level to provide support.
The letter had been sent back three minutes ago, and his assistant, not daring to delay for a moment, immediately delivered the report to Zuo Qing's desk.
Without hesitation, Zuo Qing notified the three top-tier guards stationed in the East China Sea to immediately go to Xiao Rizi to provide support.
After his assistant left, Zuo Qing still felt uneasy. He stood up, took off the cloak hanging on the clothes rack, strapped on his straight sword, and prepared to jump out of the window.
"Please stay, my friend."
Just then, a cheerful voice stopped Zuo Qing, who was about to leave.
Hearing this, Zuo Qing turned to look in confusion.
He saw an elderly man with white hair dressed in plain clothes looking at his back with warm eyes.
"Tianzun?"
After recognizing the person who had come, Zuo Qing turned around and bowed respectfully.
"Young friend, there's no need for such formalities. You don't need to worry about what's happening in Takamagahara. The gods of Great Xia have broken through the cycle of reincarnation and officially returned. They will handle things there."
Zuo Qing's expression froze for a moment, then turned to boundless elation.
If he was as embarrassed as he was when he saw the battle report, he was now just as smug.
They've finally come back...
"Thank you for your help, Heavenly Venerable."
"No need to thank me. You've all worked hard these past few days. But I do have something to ask you, young friend Zuo."
"Please speak, Heavenly Venerable."
"Where is my young friend Li Jie now? After returning to Great Xia, I used my magic to sense the aura within Great Xia, but I couldn't detect the sharp sword intent of my young friend Li Jie. Could you please enlighten me, young friend Zuo?"
Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed across Zuo Qing's face.
But he quickly came to terms with it; the Celestial Venerable had returned, and perhaps he could really help that kid get out of trouble.
"Please sit down, Your Majesty. This is a long story."
"Then let's make a long story short."
"........"
About ten minutes later, Zuo Qing picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, and continued speaking.
"That's about it. I wonder if the Celestial Venerable has any brilliant plan to help Li Jie escape this predicament."
"A Kel'Thuzad? ... There's really no good way to deal with that."
Upon hearing this, Zuo Qing shook his head helplessly.
If even the Celestial Venerable can't help, then who can help Li Jie escape this predicament?
"However, young friend Zuo doesn't need to worry too much. Although young friend Li Jie is still trapped on Nanhai Island, as long as the spatial restriction is not lifted, his life is not in great danger."
"After we've finished dealing with things on Xiao Rizi's side, we'll proceed with the rescue. What do you think, young friend?"
"That would be excellent."
Since the Celestial Venerable has said so, Zuo Qing naturally has no reason to refuse.
After all, things on the other side of life are more urgent.
"Alright, young friend, wait for me here. I'll be right back."
After speaking, Yuanshi Tianzun transformed into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared from the office.
Seeing the Heavenly Venerable's unpredictable methods, Zuo Qing was stunned for a moment. Then he walked to his desk and told Ye Fan about the return of the Great Xia God.
"Old Ye...now...he's become a monster in both offense and defense!"
