When he returned last time, Lin Xue had not yet married and expressed an intention to cultivate the Dao, so Shui Miao took her under his wing.
After such a long period of cultivation and the infusion of imperial energy, Lin Xue’s current cultivation level had already reached the realm of Xianweng.
She had worked hard, unquestionably so.
However, this achievement was inseparable from Shui Miao’s infusion of imperial energy and the use of large quantities of spirit pills.
Shui Miao sensed everyone’s cultivation once again. Everyone had already reached the realm of Xianweng, all relatives and friends alike. Among them, Chen Xiang and Chen Meiling, who had cultivated most diligently, as well as Grandpa Xiong Ying, had already reached the peak of Xianweng, only a step away from ascending to the realm of Xianzun.
As for those scattered immortals Shui Miao had placed on his conceptual planet, they had all been incorporated into the Tianji Sect by Chen Yiren.
Now, Shui Miao’s conceptual planet housed a powerful and influential sect.
Moreover, there were many treemen spirit immortals and some demon immortals within.
Yet this rate of advancement was still not fast enough; it needed to accelerate further!
Shui Miao’s mind flickered, and he immediately transported almost all the supreme immortal pills he had previously acquired into his conceptual planet, handing them over to his father and others to distribute among everyone, enabling rapid advancement and increasing strength.
After all, imperial energy here was abundant. When I have time, I must forge more sacred artifacts to arm everyone!
Shui Miao felt that the time had come to fully cultivate his relatives and friends.
However, before that, he needed to eliminate Wu Yezi and his disciples and thoroughly reform the heavenly court.
“Xing Tian, the Law Sage, do you have something on your mind? By the way, if you have something to discuss with me, please speak directly. Deputy City Lord Shui Miao is no outsider,” noticing Xing Tian’s hesitation, Shui Miao’s mind stirred, and he controlled the Tianji Sage puppet to initiate the confrontation.
Upon hearing this, Xing Tian, the Law Sage, quickly changed his expression, smiling as he hurriedly said, “It’s like this. I sent people to investigate the self-destruction incident in the Immortal Realm. After thorough investigation, I found out that Shui Miao, my young brother, was completely wronged. The person who caused trouble in the Ninth Heaven wasn’t him. So it was a big misunderstanding, and I had to come here to explain the situation to Brother Tianji. Also, also, Holy Mother Shui Tianyi is a good Immortal Emperor… Hehe…”
Tianji Sage had even sacrificed his old steward for Shui Miao.
Now, not only was Shui Miao not being punished for violating the Immortal Rules, but he was even appointed as deputy city lord, showing Tianji’s intentions.
Therefore, Xing Tian, the Law Sage, quickly adapted and began praising Shui Miao.
However, Shui Miao stepped forward voluntarily and said to Xing Tian, the Law Sage, “Actually, those things were indeed done by me. The Kunpeng Immortal Emperor in the Ninth Heaven is still being detained by me. I not only caused chaos in the Ninth Heaven, but I also looted many resources from various sects, even seriously injuring your disciple in the Sixth Heaven. I have eliminated four out of your five groups of Xing Shen, and destroyed many of your mid-grade sacred artifacts. All of these are true!”
Shui Miao’s voluntary admission was equivalent to a direct slap to Xing Tian’s face.
Xing Tian’s expression immediately became awkward, “Uh… Well, I think Shui Miao, my brother, must have had good reasons. Since Brother Tianji has already determined you are blameless, it must be their fault. Of course, my disciples were also at fault, and I will definitely discipline them strictly when I return.”
Xing Tian quickly adapted, speaking in a very pleasing manner.
However, Shui Miao knew these were insincere words; deep down, he was definitely不服气, and it was absolutely necessary to subdue him completely.
Therefore, Shui Miao, using the Tianji Sage puppet, said, “The order in the Three Realms has declined, the mortal world is in chaos, and people’s hearts are blinded by money. For money, everyone resorts to any means, losing their conscience, daring to commit the most heinous crimes. If this continues, the mortal beings will surely face an apocalyptic disaster.”
“However, thinking back, our heavenly court, which leads the Three Realms, also bears great responsibility. The heavenly court has been lax in management, allowing various sects to compete fiercely and expand recklessly. Although there are restrictions from the Immortal and Divine Wars, this is a grave injustice that erodes the elite of our Immortal Realm. Therefore, to restructure the Ninth Heaven, I have decided to reform, to thoroughly reform the order of the heavenly court, to revitalize it, to bring it back on track, thereby influencing the mortal world and the underworld, allowing justice, benevolence, and goodness to return to the mainstream of the Three Realms.”
Shui Miao used the Tianji Sage puppet to express his thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Xing Tian’s heart trembled, “I understand! Brother Tianji has always been low-key because you were preoccupied with such major reforms! Needless to say, Deputy City Lord Shui Miao must be punishing those sects to prevent them from being so arrogant, then taking advantage of the chaos to reform!”
“Xing Tian, you are loyal and fair in your work, reaching the position of Law Sage is not easy. I hope you can resist various temptations such as emotions and desires, and stick to yourself. If you have made any mistakes before, I will not hold them against you. I usually give people a chance, so I hope you can accompany me to reform the system of the Three Realms.” Xing Tian was not without merit; the reform of the heavenly court was a huge task, and it was the time to use talents. Therefore, before cultivating new successors, Shui Miao felt it necessary to stabilize Xing Tian first.
This speech seemed casual but was actually comprehensive, combining firmness and flexibility. It was like a pot of cold water poured over the head, instantly sobering Xing Tian.
Tianji Sage was the city lord of Fa City, second only to the Heavenly Emperor.
The Heavenly Emperor did not interfere with worldly affairs, so Tianji Sage was equivalent to the emperor of the heavenly court.
Tianji Sage possessed the Tianji Mirror, which could perceive the hearts of everyone in the heavenly court, distinguish between good and evil, and directly inflict invisible punishment.
Today, Tianji Sage suddenly spoke these words, making Xing Tian immediately realize that his mistakes must have been discovered by Tianji Sage. These words were clearly a warning mixed with grace, combining punishment and kindness.
Xing Tian felt nervous and quickly admitted his mistake, “City Lord, I was wrong…”
“It’s okay, it’s good enough if you can correct your mistake,” the Tianji Sage skeleton interrupted.
Xing Tian’s heart surged with determination, “I will definitely correct my mistakes!”
The Tianji Sage puppet nodded, “Good. Go tell Chong Yuanzi, the Law Sage of the Thunder Division, about my ideas, and then find some city lords you trust who can join us in reforming the order of the Three Realms to discuss how to proceed. Later, I will gather everyone to hear your opinions.”
“Thank you for Brother Tianji’s trust. I will not disappoint your expectations!”
Seeing that the city lord still trusted him, Xing Tian felt moved, gave a heavy bow, and immediately turned to handle the matter.
※※※
Watching Xing Tian’s back, Shui Miao thought to himself, this Xing Tian isn’t that useless after all!
But unfortunately, the real Tianji Sage had already perished, and the whereabouts of his Tianji Mirror were unknown. If he could find the Tianji Mirror, he could search for capable talents and put them to good use.
Shui Miao’s mind stirred and received the intelligence just gathered by the Tianji Sage puppet.
The fake Heavenly Emperor Xuan Chizi was currently in retreat, cultivating a demonic technique called Chi Lian Dafa.
The whereabouts of the Saint Forger Luo Tong were unknown, but everything else was normal.
“Cultivating Chi Lian Dafa, hmp! There’s no time to lose. I will eliminate you right now!”
With this thought, Shui Miao immediately flew towards the golden immortal city together with the Tianji Sage puppet…
