Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 1369: Chapter 1363: Ancestor Lan’s Disciple

Inside the Immortal Suppression Department.

Commander Wu Neng held a teacup in his hands, continuously scraping the tea leaves along the rim with the lid. The tea had long since gone cold, yet he kept scraping.

“My Lord.” Wang Jinhu approached.

The Immortal Suppression Department was truly capable. No matter how chaotic the world became, the Immortal Suppression Department could still find sects willing to serve them.

The unorthodox Heavenly Light Sect filled a vacancy; Wang Jinhu, the once ever-victorious general, became the Master of the Heavenly Light Sect, and then returned to serve the Immortal Suppression Department, rising higher and higher in rank.

He said to the deep-in-thought Wu Neng, “Everything is proceeding according to Her Majesty the Empress’s plan.

We have already lured out Ancestor Lan, and Ancestor Lan is now engaged in battle with the immortals and the three Great Emperors at the ends of the earth.

Now, the old general Dongfang Liancheng of the Eastern Frontier has been defeated, and Fourth Prince Yu has fought his way into the Imperial Dynasty.”

“The Ancestor of my Heavenly Light Cave sent me here to ask, the Blood Moon…”

At this question, Wu Neng finally set the teacup down slowly. He stared at the teacup, his mind filled with numerous thoughts.

In truth, with the emergence of the immortals, these cultivators in the Imperial Capital who had followed the Human Emperor to establish illustrious merits and grew powerful after the Imperial Dynasty’s founding were all thrust into a difficult choice.

There were two factions of people in the Imperial Dynasty.

One faction adamantly opposed the revival of the immortals. Even though it offered immense benefits, everyone knew the perils of the immortals’ revival.

Immortals had always existed in the world, hiding their identities through various means or serving the Imperial Dynasty.

There were also some half-immortals who behaved themselves peacefully. Most hidden factions were connected to these entities.

This was also the greatest reason why the Human Emperor continuously suppressed them and forbade indiscriminate slaughter in the mortal realm.

The other faction consisted of people like Zhao Guang, whose lifespans had reached their limits and needed to be extended.

Or they had long since coexisted with immortals, or they were fools who, for the sake of becoming stronger, arrogantly believed they possessed the ability to suppress or even enslave immortals.

For these people, until they made a move, it was impossible to even tell if they were half-immortals.

Wu Neng considered himself a moderate.

He only sought what was beneficial to the Imperial Dynasty.

Under the current circumstances, the Imperial Dynasty was expanding its territory, truly displaying the momentum of a great human resurgence where ten thousand races would submit.

Yet, the expansion of the Blood Moon and the gradual emergence of immortals from all over the world made him suspect that over the long passage of time, the immortals might have been plotting something.

He looked at Wang Jinhu and smiled.

“Sect Master Wang, there is no need to test me. I know the Heavenly Light Sect has always hoped that my Immortal Suppression Department would lend a helping hand to the Southern Frontier.”

“Lord Commander,” Wang Jinhu said,

“The Blood Moon’s expansion range is growing larger and larger. Now that Ancestor Lan has revealed himself, Her Majesty the Empress’s goal has been achieved.

There probably aren’t many experts left within the Blood Moon. This is the perfect time for us to deal with the immortals!”

“You want to save the Li Clan?”

“It’s not exactly saving them,” Wang Jinhu sighed.

“It’s just that rumors are flying everywhere now. The Ancestor is thinking that if we don’t even save the Southern Frontier, when a great disaster befalls us, who exactly will come to save us?”

Wu Neng’s expression changed.

Wang Jinhu continued, “By profiting from the immortals, the Imperial Dynasty sees profit everywhere. From then on, there is no more human affection, leaving only entanglements of interest.”

“I heard the Southern Frontier is exhausted and weak, yet they are united in defending their land.”

“My Lord, this is our last chance. Perhaps the Southern Frontier is not inferior to the immortals. At the very least, they are our compatriots; they are the Human Race.”

Wu Neng pondered for a long time.

Ultimately, Wang Jinhu walked out of the Immortal Suppression Department in dejection. The Imperial Dynasty was completely filled with schemes.

……

Inside Azure Cloud Prefecture.

As soon as they reached the border, Zishu Feng landed on a mountain and grabbed a handful of dirt. Her eyes lit up slightly as she turned to Li Chang’an.

“To think your Azure Cloud Li Clan has actually taken control of the karmic luck my royal father left for you.”

“Royal father?”

Li Chang’an hadn’t fully calmed down yet, but hearing these two words, he froze again.

He cast a few more glances at Zishu Feng; this senior’s identity… was quite complex.

Zishu Feng didn’t explain much further. She smiled and said,

“Back then, when my royal father gave you the Prefecture Lord token and established the position of Southern Frontier Guardian, handing the heaven and earth karmic luck of the Southern Frontier over for you to dominate, he was actually leaving a backup plan.

Everything inside the Blood Moon is actually related to this; the immortals within the Blood Moon wanting to forge the Immortal Court is precisely them attempting to seize the heaven and earth karmic luck.”

“Don’t be fooled by the fact that my royal father is about to pass away. He has a lot of schemes and loves to keep hundreds or thousands of backup plans whenever he does anything.”

“I originally thought that after I returned, I could teach you how to control the heaven and earth karmic luck to compete against the Blood Moon.

This is also one of the methods to resist its expansion. I never expected your preparations to be even better than my method.”

“How strange.” Zishu Feng was completely puzzled.

She couldn’t figure out in the slightest how exactly the Azure Cloud Li Clan had thoroughly seized the heaven and earth karmic luck of Azure Cloud Prefecture into their own hands.

However, she was carefree and uninhibited. “Oh well, it saves me a lot of trouble. Let’s go. I need to see if you have the qualifications to fight.”

“…”

Li Chang’an was still trying to adapt to this eccentric, wild princess.

As they continued toward his home, he slightly raised his head.

He now finally felt his own youth, and also realized that those who truly stood at the pinnacle were the ones with profound schemes.

Only now did he understand the true significance behind the Human Emperor granting their family the title of ‘Southern Frontier Guardian’.

Perhaps the Human Emperor was also seeking a sliver of survival for the Imperial Dynasty and their Azure Cloud Prefecture, and had already anticipated this day centuries ago.

The two approached the City of Merit.

They had only made it halfway when suddenly, the color of the sky and earth changed. Li Chang’an hurriedly shouted, “Wait!”

Zishu Feng’s facial muscles twitched violently. In an instant, she had entered a Dao Field.

All around her were people of Azure Cloud Prefecture, and the Dao Field was overflowing with murderous intent.

However, no one paid any heed to Li Chang’an’s words. With a casual wave of Li Yaoqing’s hand, vines darted out from the Heavenly Fire of the Dao Field, pulling Li Chang’an back.

Li Chang’an was bewildered. Seeing the clansmen’s tense and hostile postures, he hurriedly explained,

“Elders, this person is Ancestor Lan’s disciple, the Fifth Princess of the Imperial Dynasty, Zishu Feng.”

Li Yaoqing shook her head at Li Chang’an.

Wielding the Skyveil Halberd, Li Yunlin looked calmly at Zishu Feng. “Daoist Friend, what is your purpose in coming to our Azure Cloud Prefecture?”

Zishu Feng looked around and said angrily,

“Why are so many people surrounding me? I already told you I came to help under my Master’s orders. My good intentions are being met with sheer hostility!”

The Li Clan members furrowed their brows.

Ever since Zishu Feng appeared in Westfall Prefecture, they had been monitoring her every move.

Li Xinjue’s spies were scattered everywhere, continuously relaying information through the Immortal in the Mirror.

Li Yunbing’s wicked thoughts had long since silently permeated every corner of the Southern Frontier not yet corrupted by the Blood Moon.

Yet, they still harbored doubts.

“What exactly is your purpose, Daoist Friend?” Li Yunlin asked once again, the halberd in his hand trembling.

Meanwhile, inside the City of Merit, within the spirit pool.

Zishu Lingtian’s reattached head and corpse, which had remained motionless for years and were merely being bled by the family, were now trembling madly with the arrival of Zishu Feng!

Beneath the Blood Moon of the Western Frontier, the Blood Demon Lord clutched his head in agony. Veins bulged all over his body as he let out a subconscious, low growl.

“I am the Demon Lord! I am not Zishu Lingtian, I am not!”

“Fifth Aunt… Fifth Aunt…”

A fleeting moment of clarity flashed through the Blood Demon Lord’s eyes.

The divine corpse in the spirit pool opened its eyes, and the Blood Demon Lord murmured, “Why is Fifth Aunt here?”
