My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 383 The Shock of the World! The New Emperor: Chu Zhu!

Dijing.

The main entrance of the God Worshipping Society, Eastern Branch headquarters.

Ning Linglong stared at the white-haired old man in front of her with a strange look, her lips trembling as she asked, "Teacher...you?"

Yesterday, she was woken up by her teacher in the middle of the night and then dragged directly to the capital city—

She simply couldn't understand what was happening... Her phone was confiscated, and although she was still provided with food, she was not allowed to communicate with the outside world in any way—no, this was house arrest!

She realized then that something terrible had happened, and that it might involve her teammates... She pleaded desperately, but her master remained unmoved.

But now...

It's inexplicable... I can only say it was inexplicable from beginning to end!
She had thought she would be imprisoned for a long time, but on the second day, her master dragged her out and took her directly to the headquarters of the Eastern branch of the God Worshipping Society—a magnificent and vast headquarters, with a style quite similar to the imperial palace…standing alongside the headquarters of the Western branch in Tianjing.

"Sigh!" The old man sighed softly, opened his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't say anything, and just continued to walk inside.

The guards in armor seemed to have been given prior notice and did not stop the old man!
at last……

Ning Linglong followed the old man into a palace.

"You've come!" Inside the palace, a woman who had her back to them noticed something and slowly turned around as she spoke.

She had long, silvery-white hair and skin as white as jade. Rather than a person, she seemed more like a being sculpted from crystal or jade. Even when she moved, her skin reflected a five-colored luster under the light, like a dream.

"...Who are you?" Ning Linglong frowned, her confusion deepening... Wait, why would she come to the Eastern Headquarters of the God Worshipping Society? Wasn't her master a Taoist priest?

Ning Linglong fell into deep thought, realizing she had discovered a blind spot.

The woman didn't speak, but simply waved her hand gently. Instantly, the old man transformed into a wisp of pure energy and merged into the woman's body. Ning Linglong's pupils suddenly contracted, realizing something.

"I am half the Imperial Advisor of the Great Qian Dynasty! And also the leader of the Eastern God-Worshipping Cult! Jia Yanyu!" The woman's tone remained unchanged: "You should be aware of your master's identity..."

She deliberately used this tone to make Ning Linglong mistakenly believe that her master was her incarnation—but strictly speaking, Ning Linglong's master was not connected to her by incarnation... but was one of her ten Dao bodies.

In order to erase the pollution, she sealed her memories and went through ten lifetimes, some dying young and others growing old. After she attained enlightenment, she separated these lifetimes and continued to walk among humans!

Essentially, Jia Yanyu didn't really want to connect with these Dao bodies—because these Dao bodies still bore the pollution that had been separated from her! In order to maintain her current state of purity!
But... this time the situation is just too serious!

A cataclysmic change! Especially...

Left with no other choice, she reactivated this body of hers, throwing herself into the fray!

“…Master, you!” Ning Linglong’s body trembled, and her face showed confusion, bewilderment, and trepidation.

Her mind went blank. Although she had long known that her master was no ordinary person, this was just too much!

What kind of concept is the leader of the Eastern Cult? Just as she said... half a national advisor!
Or rather, if it weren't for the founding emperor's strict prohibition against any religious sect becoming the state religion, it already would have been.

"Time is tight right now, I can't explain everything to you one by one!" Jia Yanyu took out her phone and threw it at Ning Linglong... Ning Linglong subconsciously caught it, looked at it for a moment, and then realized that it was her phone that had been confiscated. She looked at Jia Yanyu in confusion.

Seeing Jia Yanyu nod, Ning Linglong vaguely realized something. She then carefully turned on the phone, and her expression froze.

Because the voice of Nuwa could be heard on the phone!

Moreover, it was actually legitimate dream language...

The goddess Nuwa calmly recounted her identity, and then elaborated on the current state of the world: the Great Qian had lost its way, the dynasty had been established, and it was called the Great Chu!

The new emperor has been chosen... his name is—Chu Zhu!
"??? This is impossible!"

Ning Linglong let out a sharp bang at this moment, and even wondered if the cult leader was teasing her.
"Go out!" Jia Yanyu stared at Ning Linglong for a while with her jewel-like eyes, but did not try to persuade her to believe her. She simply waved her hand.

After a moment of disorientation, Ning Linglong was shocked to find herself at the back gate of the Eastern Cult, completely alone: ​​"???" So... what does this all mean?!
Ning Linglong was confused. Did you want her to connect with Chu Zhu and then discuss the Eastern Religion?
Or is it……

But why didn't she say anything? It doesn't seem like she should be carrying a message!
and……

No, the contents of the phone are really true... Ning Linglong listened to Nuwa repeating her words again... She really became the emperor?
Ning Linglong was confused. She looked at the sky; she must have been arrested just a day ago…

It should be one day...

This is impossible, even in a year!

There's still a tiny chance in ten years!

In the end what happened?
Could it be that Chu Zhu is actually the crown prince, and now he has turned against the emperor and is using force to ascend the throne...? But even then, the country's name cannot be changed!
Ning Linglong felt increasingly confused and bewildered as she thought about it... She couldn't understand it!
"..."

There was a long silence.

"..." Ning Linglong suddenly muttered to herself, "What should I do next?"

She turned around and glanced at the tightly closed back door, then laughed in exasperation. Seriously, what kind of move is this—throwing her out without saying a word?
She used to think her master was pretty normal, but this Eastern Cult Leader... was too abnormal... Why did she feel a little afraid to communicate with others?

After thinking it over and over, Ning Linglong could only say... Are you crazy?!

With a sigh, Ning Linglong finally made up her mind, dialed that familiar number, and gritted her teeth as she pressed the call button... and then...

"? Didn't get through? Wait, someone is trying to contact him..." Ning Linglong realized belatedly.

……

"Hmm!" Chu Zhu listened expressionlessly to Lu Muxue's confused and trembling voice: "Alright, Muxue, let's leave it at that for now! We can spend more time talking later... but I'm a bit pressed for time right now!"

After hanging up, Chu Zhu frowned again, realizing that someone had called back, or rather, someone was constantly calling him... So, as soon as he hung up, the next call would immediately come in: "...Hai Mingyue?"

Rubbing her temples, Chu Zhu answered the phone again, her voice flat: "I hope you're not going to say... congratulations on winning the throne... that nonsense!"

"...Of course not!" Hai Mingyue said calmly. "I just wanted to ask, do you need our support?"

"?"

"The Hehuan Sect is willing to place a bet on your behalf..." Hai Mingyue's voice was respectful.

"...I can make the Hehuan Sect a legitimate religion! But, the sect leader must give me a complete list of its members. Also, describe the assistance you can provide! Describe your sect's specific treasures and tell me where they are hidden... Of course, I don't need you to hand over these treasures! I can swear by the Yangtze River... If you want a master of contractual supernatural powers as collateral, you can bring them over directly... If possible, deliver the list to the capital before 11:00 AM today! If you disagree, then forget it." Chu Zhu hung up the phone again.

He knew without even thinking that the cult leader was right next to Hai Mingyue.

This life, in the end, is just about exploring the path! If possible, I can gather some intelligence and reset things... If not, so be it... It's just the Hehuan Sect!

"Hive, block all incoming calls!" Chu Zhu said coldly, feeling quite overwhelmed. It wasn't that he was turning his back on everyone after ascending to the throne… it was just that time was truly too tight! He simply didn't have the time to waste on these people…

"...It has been successfully implemented!" Hive responded calmly.

"Authorized One!" Nuwa No. 17 said softly, "The people from the Ministry of Rites... seem to be ready! What are you going to do next..."

"Wait!" Huo Qiming's expression changed drastically as he watched Chu Zhu staring at the altar in front of the ancestral temple, which was gradually taking shape in the light screen.

Only now did he seem to wake from a dream, vaguely realizing something, and hurriedly said, "You can't do this! If you go now... you might get caught, and then..."

“Yes,” Hu Kaikang finally realized what was happening and continued, “You are now a superhuman! Even the goddess Nuwa, even the Temple of Heaven, cannot guarantee… this is part of the order… our power is simply insufficient to protect you… otherwise, you should contact the Pope…”

"...It's alright!" Chu Zhu shook his head, narrowed his eyes, and said calmly, "I was prepared."

Chu Zhu recalled his last meeting with Governor-General Ji Lan of Jiangnan, his expression somewhat puzzling—he only intended to suffer such a loss once in his life.
