Primordial Era: A God-Level Choice, Possessing Zhao Gongming at the Start.

Chapter 480 The Inner Demons Are Gone, the Journey to the West is Imminent!

After lifting everyone up, the Emperor of Fengdu asked leisurely, "What brings you here to disturb me? Speak freely, I am all ears."

Jiang Liuer immediately gave Li Shimin a look.

Li Shimin immediately protested, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! I am Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Continent. These two are my elder brother and younger brother. Twenty years ago, during the Xuanwu Gate Incident, my elder brother and younger brother went too far. I had no choice but to fight back, which ultimately brought peace to the world."

Li Shimin poured out his grievances, wishing he could vent all the grievances he had accumulated over the past twenty years.

Li Shimin explained in great detail. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji listened from the side, their eyes blazing with hatred, their bodies radiating a fierce aura, showing a tendency to develop into even more wicked demons.

"Hmm? You dare to be presumptuous before me, the Emperor?"

Mosquito Taoist frowned and casually unleashed a burst of magical power, enveloping Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

The two shuddered violently, but their expressions quickly returned to normal. They exchanged a glance, a look of fear flashing across their faces.

They dare to be so insolent in front of the Emperor! They've really gone too far!

However, they felt even more aggrieved. It was all because Li Shimin's description was too realistic; otherwise, they wouldn't have risen up like this.

After a full incense stick's time had passed, Li Shimin finally finished speaking, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I wanted to say. Please make your decision."

Mosquito Taoist nodded. "I understand. What about you? You may speak as well."

As the Emperor of Fengdu and the ruler of the underworld, Mosquito Taoist possesses the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen. Knowing these things is as simple as a thought. Asking Li Shimin and the others is merely a formality, and also a way for them to vent their resentment.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Shimin and Li Yuanji quickly began to recount their story, which, in general, was largely the same as what Li Shimin had said.

After speaking, he bowed as well, saying, "Please, Your Majesty, decide and give us justice."

After listening, the Emperor of Fengdu pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes. Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, since you have already perished in the Xuanwu Gate, you should abide by the rules of the underworld and no longer interfere in the mortal world. This is your fault. Do you acknowledge it?"

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji opened their mouths, but finally said reluctantly, "We admit it."

"Li Shimin".

"exist."

Li Shimin nodded.

"As the eldest son of the legitimate heir, he must be the rightful heir. Although there were reasons for this, killing one's father and brother is still a grave mistake. In the cycle of cause and effect, your Tang Dynasty will also face a great calamity in the future."

"If we can overcome this obstacle, the Tang Dynasty will still be the Tang Dynasty, its power shaking the world and all nations paying tribute. If we cannot overcome this obstacle, the eternal foundation of the Li Tang Dynasty will be used to benefit others."

"This...this is how capable my Great Tang Dynasty is."

Li Shimin immediately lost his composure. "May I ask Your Majesty, what exactly is this calamity? Please tell me."

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. I am telling you now, but when you return to life, you will automatically forget everything."

Mosquito Taoist shook his head.

"Yes"

Li Shimin's expression turned somber.

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were not particularly happy; instead, their faces were gloomy.

No matter how bad Li Shimin was, the Tang Dynasty still flowed with the blood of his Li family. If he changed his name and surname, the foundation of the Li Tang Dynasty would be destroyed in an instant. How could they want to see that?

"This matter is settled, and the matter is now closed. You may all return."

With a wave of his hand, Mosquito Taoist sent Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji flying out of the hall.

Suddenly, only Jiang Liuer remained in Mosquito Taoist's sight.

Mosquito Taoist stared at Jiang Liuer, a slight smile playing on his lips, his face revealing an expression he hadn't seen in a long time.

"Fellow Daoist Six-Winged Golden Cicada, it's been a long time!"

"The Great Emperor of Fengdu!"

Jiang Liuer's eyes were incredibly deep as he spoke slowly.

"Now that the true spirit has awakened, what plans does it have for Buddhism?"

Mosquito Taoist asked casually.

"Naturally, I will exact revenge to the very end, repaying the harm I suffered a hundredfold!"

Jiang Liuer spoke calmly. As one of the Five Fiends of antiquity, he was always the one bullying others and had never suffered such a great loss before!

If the true spirit had not awakened and remained in ignorance, it would naturally be powerless to resist. But now, things are different.

"Our Jie Sect will secretly do everything in its power to help you, don't worry."

Mosquito Taoist said solemnly, and then added, "Helping you is the same as helping myself in the Intercepting Sect, so don't worry about it."

Jiang Liuer nodded. "I understand."

After saying that, he flashed away and also left the Senluo Palace!

Outside the palace, only Li Shimin remained.

"Where are Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji?"

Li Shimin explained, "After they came out, they were still not convinced and wanted to attack me, but they had already been taken away by the Ten Kings of Hell."

Jiang Liuer secretly found it amusing; as expected of the Emperor of Fengdu, he was adept at winning people over with "virtue".

"In that case, let's go back to the mortal realm."

"I've finally come all this way, can I see my father?"

In Li Shimin's heart, besides feeling guilty towards Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, there was also Li Yuan.

The years he spent imprisoning Li Yuan after ascending the throne were the time he felt most guilty about.

Jiang Liuer said, "We can go ask together."

Jiang Liuer, with Li Shimin by his side, quickly found Qin Guangwang, one of the Ten Kings of Hell.

After checking, King Qin Guang said in a deep voice, "The Li Yuan you mentioned was reincarnated several years ago."

"Reincarnated? Are you doing well?"

Li Shimin quickly replied.

"I'm doing very well. I was born into a wealthy family and have never had to worry about food or clothing."

"Okay, that's good."

Li Shimin nodded. Since his father had already been reincarnated, there was no need for him to stay in the Netherworld any longer.

Soon, Jiang Liuer and Li Shimin returned to the mortal realm!

In the underworld, so much time has passed, but in the mortal realm, it's only a fleeting moment. When Li Shimin awoke, he found himself still on his dragon bed, surrounded by bright stars and a desolate, deserted world.

Li Shimin closed his eyes, slowly thinking about everything that had happened in the underworld, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Li Shimin woke up refreshed, and there was no trace of malevolence left in the entire palace.

Inside the Golden Light Temple, Jiang Liuer sat on a stone platform, quietly watching the starry sky.

A moment later, three golden streaks of light pierced the sky and fell upon Jin Guang Temple.

They are Guanyin, Manjushri, and Samantabhadra!

"Jin Chanzi, you have done a very good job. The Buddha is very satisfied. Now, let's prepare for the journey to the West."

"Westward?"

Jiang Liuer's lips curled into a sneer. "The Buddha really treats people like cattle. I'd like to rest in the Tang Dynasty for a while longer. Let's talk about the journey to the west in a few years."

Guanyin immediately became anxious, "How can such an important matter as the journey to the West be postponed for several years? Naturally, the sooner the better."

"If you think it's good, then you can go west; I won't go."

Jiang Liuer refused outright.

"you"

Just as Samantabhadra was about to get angry, he was stopped by Avalokiteshvara.

"Alright, we'll go back and ask the Buddha. If the Buddha agrees, no one will care how long you rest."

The three Guanyins arrived quickly and left quickly, transforming into a streak of light and flying away.
