Wet viviparity

Chapter 974 The Answer: Great Wealth
The bridge is neither stone nor wood, but rather a clear, cool light reflected on the rippling waves of the river.

The bridge was bathed in a warm, gentle light, and beneath it, one could see the still earth, fire, wind, and water. On the divine bridge, two figures stood out prominently.

On the left, a majestic sun crow stands proudly, radiating a warm and intense golden light, like a miniature sun. Its gaze dispels all gloom and illusion, representing the ultimate yang and light.

On the right, a nimble yin rabbit crouches quietly, its entire body shrouded in a cool and gentle silver light, like the condensation of bright moonlight. Its pair of red eyes are gentle and deep, symbolizing the ultimate yin and the concealment of yin.

The yang crow and the yin rabbit appeared simultaneously on the divine bridge.

This wondrous sight manifested by Yuanbi Ruyi lasted only a moment, like a fleeting glimpse of a swan. Then, the divine bridge, the yang crow, and the yin rabbit faded away quietly, as if ink had seeped into the void, as if they had never appeared at all.

"Little Saint, have mercy, manifest your will, and grant me inspiration!" He bowed down again with his palms clasped together. Then, he placed one pair of arms below in the meditation mudra; one pair of arms in the middle in the teaching mudra; and one pair of arms above, diagonally upwards to the left and right, as if supporting the sky.

At this moment, Wen Daoyu's composure vanished completely, replaced by a complex expression that mixed shock, relief, and a deeper worry.

He knew how much pressure Xiao Sheng was under at Dayu Mountain, which was right under the nose of the Deputy Commander of Shenxiao and a sacred place in the hearts of the former Demon Party of Woshuixian. He could understand that Xiandao Shen might be another move by Xiao Sheng, but he was still worried that Xiao Sheng's actions would attract the attention of that Deputy Commander, thus unleashing his wrath upon Xiao Sheng.

At the same time, Wen Daoyu also warned himself that the struggle at that level was beyond imagination, and he should not make hasty conclusions in his mind. Since Xiao Sheng chose to reveal the dangerous path god as a pawn, he must have had his profound intentions.

Wen Daoyu's lips moved slightly, but in the end he said nothing.

The hostility in Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes dissipated, and he withdrew the illusory and shimmering reflection of the jade wall surrounding him.

The people from Taiping Mountain exchanged glances, silently conveying a great deal of information. When they looked at the local deity again, their gazes were completely different. Their hostility and scrutiny had transformed into an extremely complex expression, carrying a hint of unavoidable solemnity.

"In that case, there is no need for us ordinary people here."

Fu Ding and Li Zhu left together, taking Mingyue Tongzi and Li Biti with them as they went.

“Now that the Little Sage has shown his inspiration, we would like to hear more about the ‘future’ of the Righteous Gods,” Wen Daoyu said.

"Wen Zhangjing, Fei Zhangxian, and You Rongzi, the three of you can stay. The rest of you may leave on your own," Ji Ming said, pointing them out one by one.

"No, I must stay as well."

Mi Posuo looked very unhappy and added, "Don't think I can't see it. You, Mao Shen, don't regard me as a Fifth Realm cultivator at all. I also cultivated through countless tribulations and hardships. Back then, I was no less famous than those few."

"Okay, you can stay."

After Ji Ming finished speaking, he flicked a few fingers.

"Retreat!" With a soft shout, before the others could react, they felt their feet move and were forced to flee from the place. It wasn't just the few from Taiping Mountain who were forced to flee; the same thing happened to the Yunyu Temple side, leaving only Dafeng, Manyinying, and Green Pot God behind.

Because of their trust in Xiao Sheng, Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others did not say anything even though the righteous god's actions were somewhat excessive.

However, Man Shenying's calm demeanor clearly revealed a sense of rejection. After all, judging from the actions of the Righteous God just now, it could almost be seen as the Little Saint planting a thorn in the Cloud and Rain Temple, but Man Shenying's next words were unexpected by everyone.

"Don't worry about my emotions and attitude."

Man Shenying spoke with a calm tone, saying, "As long as you can lead Yunyu Temple back to its original status, I don't care whose people you are or what kind of schemes you have."

"Hahaha!"

Ji Ming suddenly burst into laughter, each laugh louder than the last, and even though Man Shenying's expression changed, he continued to laugh.

Such laughter, with its almost demonic, manic quality, was highly infectious; just hearing it evoked the image of an ambitious and powerful ruler. "Is your original status enough?"

During that great calamity, the divine plan was to replace Victoria Peak.

Upon hearing this, Man Shenying pursed her lips, first glancing at the group from Taiping Mountain, and then asked, "What are your thoughts?"

“I heard many things from Xiao Sheng, and among these things, there is one major event that can be seen as the way out for Yunyu Temple, and that is the Zhao family of the Zhenling Sect.”

Wen Daoyu couldn't help but speak up: "You want to take his place!"

"Why not."

Ji Ming said this to Wen Daoyu, Zhang Xiaoyuan, You Rongzi, and others.

Then he repeated to Man Shenying, Dafeng, and the Green Pot God, "Why not!"

"No wonder the Little Sage was willing to show you his inspiration." Wen Daoyu suddenly realized, "In this way, you will gain the Little Sage's full support, and may even gain some support within the True Spirit Sect. If..."

In the end, Wen Daoyu remained silent.

This plan has a prerequisite: a reliable backer. Otherwise, the Righteous God and the Cloud and Rain Temple will just be a disposable tool.

"Murder, arson, and surrender to the imperial court—you're truly a genius," Mi Posuo muttered.

"What do you need to do? What do you need us to do?" Green Pot God rushed to the three pairs of hand seals in the void, opened his hands covered in green jade armor, and asked anxiously.

"It's not about what we need you to do, but what you can do and what you're willing to give."

This great fortune that follows will not benefit all the disciples of the Cloud and Rain Temple. Green Pot God, Full Infant, and Great Wind, which of you is willing to pay a price equal to this great fortune?

Da Feng spoke first, having already forgotten his earlier displeasure, and said, "Answer me one question, and I will do my utmost to help you."

"You want to ask me why I'm qualified to be this chess player, and what I rely on to avoid being used as a pawn by Xiao Sheng or others behind him."

"I can already believe you if you can say that, but I still want to hear the answer."

"The answer lies in the sacred mountain."

"God Lord!"

Da Feng and Man Shenying said in unison.

"No, no, the God is not qualified to be that answer."

Da Feng and Manyen Ying were both stunned. They had already figured out the answer, but they still couldn't believe it. Finally, Da Feng smiled bitterly and said, "This answer is indeed convincing, but how can you expect me to believe that you have this answer?"

"I will personally go to the sacred mountain to see this answer, and that will be the time of the Zhao family's destruction."

"Haha, hahaha, I have no more questions, I have no more questions," Da Feng said happily.
