My version of Heavenly Dao is too old, so it's full of bugs.

Chapter 509: Let Me Rescue the Emperor?
[Oh dear! My nephew Li Weixian must be working so hard starting his business all by himself! Come quick!]

Before Li Wei's mirror image even entered the room, Ge Hong came out with a big smile, grabbing his clone without even wearing gloves.

It's obvious at a glance that this old guy has ulterior motives.

"Your Majesty, please don't do this, I'm scared."

[Heh! You dare to advertise right in front of both armies, how could you be so easily scared? I don't believe it! Let me take your pulse. If I find you're lying, I'll definitely charge you with deceiving your superiors!]

【Hmm! Your pulse seems to indicate a problem with your kidneys.】

quack!!!

Li Wei quickly pulled his hand back: "Alright, sir, stop joking. My kidneys are perfectly fine, there's absolutely no problem! Let's talk about giving speeches in the military camp."

"As you know, I am the chief clerk appointed by His Majesty to accompany the army; my main duty is..."

Ge Hong gave him a deep look and interrupted him directly: "Your primary job doesn't matter, the key is your side job! Aren't you just trying to use the title of 'Military Assistant' to open classes and spread your teachings?"

【Can! 】

I'm granting you this permission!

[From now on, you can preach to all the cultivators in the three armies' camp, including the gods. You can brainwash them... cough cough cough! Recruit as many people as you can. In short, I will absolutely not make things difficult for you.]

Upon hearing this, Li Wei was more worried than pleased. He lifted himself off the stool and silently headed towards the tent door: "And what's the price?"

[Hehehe! Wasn't the Plague Emperor trapped in the Dragon Slave Kingdom? We are currently devising a rescue plan. If you can volunteer, our Heavenly Court will certainly not mistreat a meritorious subject.]

Li Wei's smile remained unchanged, but he didn't say a word.

Ge Hong blinked.

Li Wei blinked and asked curiously, "What did you just say, sir? I didn't hear anything."

[You're being sent to save the Plague Emperor?]

"What emperor?"

【The Plague Emperor!】

"What kind of Huang?"

[Heh! You brat, you're pulling this on me, aren't you? Let me tell you, today you either get your ass into the Dragon Clan's territory to rescue them, or you get your ass back to the front lines for your duty. Not a single soldier in my camp will be allowed to spread the word!]

"Lord Ge, don't give me that crap. When you need me, you call me Inspector, and when you don't, you call me brat. Don't you know that what I hate most is being threatened?!"

The two attendant gods who were serving tea were so startled by these words that their hands trembled involuntarily. They then quickly glanced at their own god.

Ge Hong stood frozen in place, his face gradually darkening as he said, "You brat, even though this is just an avatar, how dare you speak to me like that?"

Li Wei met His gaze without fear and said, "What, a cultivator at the Great Luo Realm, do you really want to take a mortal like me seriously? Should I kneel down and beg for your forgiveness right now?"

Ge Hong's face grew increasingly gloomy, and his divine power surged forth, forming waves of terrifying pressure that instantly filled the entire camp.

Two loud thuds!

Regardless of whether Li Wei knelt or not, the two attendants beside him knelt first.

The so-called unpredictable power of Heaven is evident in the fact that the Great Crimson Cauldron Salvation True Emperor, as a Great Luo cultivator, is almost as powerful as Heaven in every action.

If you provoke the True Emperor like this, what if he really gets angry later? It doesn't matter if you die, but if the True Emperor takes the opportunity to punish both of us as well, that would be terrible!

【Ha ha ha ha!!】

Ge Hong burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Inspector Li Wei is indeed as rumored—a man who fears no power and seeks revenge without hesitation. No wonder the Heavenly Emperor likes you so much!"

In the Heavenly Court today, there are only those who occupy positions without doing their jobs and are mediocre. Even the founding heroes who survived from ancient times have been corrupted by decadent lifestyles and have long lost their original pride.

People like Li Wei are extremely rare!

Ge Hong turned to his two attendants and said coldly, "What are you still kneeling there for? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough? Get out of here!"

【Yes! 】

The two attendants quickly put down the tea and left.

Looking behind them, Ge Hong sighed helplessly:

Those who have desires are bound to be fearful! Those who have wants are bound to be humble! The people in Heaven are too scheming and too lacking in genuine character! Everything they do is driven by ulterior motives and self-interest, and their actions are naturally bound by those motives and self-interest!

Perhaps it's time for a refresh, to find some fearless and humble people to get things done.

Li Wei didn't reply, but Ge Hong persisted, turning to say, "I know you have concerns, and they are! Rescuing someone from the enemy's main camp, especially a Great Luo Immortal, will certainly involve great risks."

[But the risks are high, but the rewards are also high! To tell you the truth, my military camp currently has 32 billion mortal cultivators, and several billion more soldiers are constantly gathering from all directions. It is estimated that the number will reach around 10 billion within a month!]

[A cultivator of this size can support at least 300,000 law-based base stations. After deducting the portion needed by the Battle Division War Law System and the portion guaranteed by other law systems, there should still be a gap of 20,000 law-based base stations remaining.]

[With so many base stations, you could easily cultivate to the Golden Immortal realm! So, in my opinion, this is a fair trade!]

[You don't need to give me an answer right away, think it over carefully! But time waits for no one. If the great war starts again, the number of law-based base stations will be further reduced. Even if I give you a share of 20,000 base stations then, you won't be able to get any!]

After a moment of silence, Li Wei said, "You really want to give me a share of 20,000 base stations, and not stop me from spreading the word?"

【Um! 】

"What about the plan? You can't just tell me to save someone and I'll do it, can you? That's a Grand Luo cultivator!"

The plan was already in place!

Ge Hong took out "space photos" taken from the Lingxiao Palace in the heavens and handed them to Li Wei.

[This is a photo of the Dragon Slave Kingdom when it was first established! This is a photo of the Dragon Slave Kingdom after its revitalization, when it returned to its original state of mountains and rivers. Can you see any differences?]

As the master of the Dragon Slave Kingdom, Li Wei knew his country inside and out, so even without a photograph, he knew: "In the central core of the Dragon Slave Kingdom, there has been a large mountain!"

[That's right, this is where the Plague Emperor was suppressed! Look, there's a ring of black lines along the mountainside; that should be the Plague Emperor's life-saving weapon—the Plague Cover!]

This divine weapon can maximize the plague and disease within the Plague Emperor, creating an absolute death zone. Even the Ancestral Dragon probably wouldn't dare approach it easily. Therefore, the Plague Emperor should still be alive and possess a certain degree of autonomy!

After all, he's a powerful Luo Immortal; he's not so easy to kill!
For example, Zhen Yuanzi perished because he was already in poor condition.

With the combined efforts of the four Great Luo Immortals—the Lord of War, the Great Emperor Gouchen, the Great Emperor Qinghua, and the Great Emperor Changsheng—and at the cost of severe injury, and with the help of the Three Pure Ones, Zhen Yuanzi's fate was finally sealed.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Court also dispatched Minister of Finance Zhao Gongming and Minister of Thunder Puhua Tianzun to launch a feigned attack from the front. It was only with the combined efforts of nine Great Luo Immortals that they finally managed to kill Zhen Yuanzi!

The situation was even more outrageous on Xuanling Huanglao's side.

Not only did nine Great Sages join forces to lock him down, but they also received assistance from supreme Dao soldiers like those from the Dragon Gate, and the advantageous terrain of the Blissful Demon Land further enhanced their power. In the end, they even dragged down Liangshanbo from the universe and used the power of millions of miles of mountains and rivers as a hammer to smash him to death in one blow.

Whether from Zhen Yuanzi or Xuanling Huanglao, it can be seen that Daluo are often only killed when facing enemies several times or even ten times their size!

How many Great Luo Immortals does the Dragon Clan have?

Strictly speaking, there was only Zu Long, and Zu Long was still in a state of serious injury and not yet recovered.

As for Ao Xuan, to be honest, he was only half a Great Luo Immortal. Even if he and the Ancestral Dragon joined forces, they would not be able to kill the Plague Emperor directly.

Therefore, whether we analyze the battlefield situation, satellite images, or the dragon race's combat strength, the Plague Emperor is definitely not dead.

This is the premise of our rescue! Your task then is to find a way to lift the seal on the Plague Emperor, and we will naturally find a way to receive you.

[And this is the formation used by Heaven on July 7.20th to seal the Plague Emperor!]

"You guys can even get your hands on something like this?"

[Hahaha! Who told Heaven to be so bloodthirsty back then, insisting on controlling the World Giant to hunt us down? So, they just casually placed a hook on the World Giant.]

To be honest, even we didn't expect this hook to survive. We guess in the final moments, the power of Heaven's Dao weakened too much, and they could only use their remaining strength to seal the Plague Emperor, leaving no time for a nationwide survey.

Upon hearing this, Li Wei frowned: "How could this happen? Could this be a trap deliberately left behind by Heavenly Dao 7.20?"

I wouldn't say I'm 100% sure, but I'm at least 70-80% confident this isn't a trap!

Li Wei nodded, and then listened in detail to the rescue plan, emergency response plan and other details. In the end, he had to admit that Ge Hong's plan to lead the troops might actually be able to save the Plague Emperor.

After a moment of careful consideration, he quickly nodded: "In that case, I'll take this task!"

to be frank,
He also quite liked Ge Hong's personality; he said what he meant, and direct transactions were always better than scheming behind people's backs. This was one of the main reasons why he chose to help him.

"However, I'm going to go into the military camps to promote my policies right now, and I'll start building my Law Base Stations right now!"

Ge Hong smiled slightly: "Of course! After all, the stronger you are, the better you can save people!"

[However, given your unique ability to cause explosions wherever you go, I have one more requirement: you must stay away from the rescue team's operations, lest you blow them up!]

"I protest! This is blatant slander!"

[Protest invalid. Instead of wasting your time appealing here, you should be busy preparing to spread the word and increase your own strength, you bastard!]
