CHAPTER 1130: CHAPTER 352: THE DEATH OF TIAN WU (PART 2)

"Let the Wood God come see me."

He said coldly.

Emperor Jun always thought he could suppress the Wood God, but never expected the Wood God would make such a move against him.

It was a desperate plot to ensnare him and instigate a major conflict against the Heavenly Court.

Ji Meng stepped forward, shook his head, and said, "I tried contacting the Wood God earlier, but couldn’t reach him. It seems he deliberately hid himself."

Emperor Jun’s expression turned even grimmer.

The Wood God’s actions clearly showed he was intentionally stirring discord between the Heavenly Court and Emperor Jun’s faction, aiming to spark a major conflict.

"Damn it, I underestimated him. Didn’t expect the Wood God to be so reckless, offending both the Heavenly Court and me. He really is asking to die."

Emperor Jun said through clenched teeth.

"Father, let me find the Wood God and kill him."

The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow stepped forward and said in a heavy voice.

"Get out."

Emperor Jun directly rebuked.

The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow’s face turned dark, and he hurriedly stepped back.

Xihe transmitted a message and said, "You child, speaking nonsense. The Wood God is powerful, even someone like the Primordial Empress isn’t his match. How do you plan to kill him?"

The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow awkwardly smiled, finally understanding why his father was so angry.

It seemed his words were indeed overly confident.

With his father’s realm and perspective, naturally he doesn’t favor boastful talk.

The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow sat to one side and dared not speak.

"Your Majesty, allow me to find the Wood God and strive to capture or kill him."

Ji Meng spoke up, his eyes flashing with cold light.

As Emperor Jun’s First Marshal, he naturally possessed such strength.

"Forget it, announce to the world that the Wood God has betrayed me; from now on, he is my enemy."

Emperor Jun said coldly.

The crowd was shocked at these words.

Xihe was even more surprised and couldn’t help but say, "Your Majesty, doing this, aren’t we telling the world we fear the Heavenly Court?"

She was somewhat unwilling, even quite dissatisfied.

Announcing to the world to sever ties with the Wood God.

Once this is done, it equates to admitting they fear the Heavenly Court.

The blow to their morale would be enormous.

"Do as I say, don’t question it."

Emperor Jun said calmly.

Xihe cast a glance at Emperor Jun, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately said nothing.

In the presence of a strict emperor, even she would feel reverent, not daring to contradict.

Mother Moon Changxi glanced at Xihe, signaling her not to say more.

When has the emperor’s decisions ever changed?

Xihe took a deep breath and finally decided to say nothing further.

Ji Meng withdrew, directly using mana to declare to the Three Realms that the Wood God had betrayed the Heavenly Emperor’s camp, and his actions had nothing to do with them.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s eyes flickered, staring at Ji Meng, slightly smirking.

"Your Majesty, the Wood God has defected? Going to Mount Hua wasn’t Emperor Jun’s idea?"

The Senior Commander-in-Chief was somewhat surprised.

Originally he thought the Wood God followed Emperor Jun’s orders to provoke Sun Wukong and the others.

But now it seems, he was completely wrong.

The Wood God had actually acted on his own to provoke Sun Wukong and the others.

"How audacious of this Wood God, betraying Emperor Jun yet daring to provoke the Heavenly Court, does he really think his life is too long?"

Upon hearing the Senior Commander-in-Chief’s words, Eastern Emperor Taiyi turned, his gaze landing on him.

"You seem very convinced of the current Heavenly Court."

The Senior Commander-in-Chief smiled slightly and retorted, "Does Your Majesty wish to hear the truth or lies?"

"Naturally the truth."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi replied.

The Senior Commander-in-Chief raised his head, looking towards the Heavenly Court, his gaze solemn and heavy.

"Your Majesty, I am not very optimistic about us, even if we join forces with Emperor Jun."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi remained calm, did not interrupt, indicating him to continue speaking.

As if the words of the Senior Commander-in-Chief were long expected by him.

The Senior Commander-in-Chief saw Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no reaction, he continued according to his thoughts.

"Of course, this is not because of the Three Pure Ones, but because this era’s Heavenly Court is truly different; they are recognized by living beings, and their intention is not to enslave the Three Realms, but to protect it."

The Senior Commander-in-Chief’s expression was grave.

"Protecting the Three Realms has nothing particularly special."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi chuckled.

"But living beings are ultimately the foundation of the Three Realms. Without them, there wouldn’t be such a thriving Three Realms. This point cannot be disputed by Your Majesty."

The Senior Commander-in-Chief stared at Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

"Continue."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi smiled lightly.

"Your Majesty has truly underestimated the Power of Living Beings. My incarnation used to be one of the Heavenly Court’s Four Heavenly Kings, naturally aware of how terrifying the power of living beings is. Great Emperor Ziwei’s rapid rise is inextricably linked to the Telekinesis of living beings."

The Senior Commander-in-Chief sighed.

"This era’s Heavenly Court has many against-the-heavens demon fiends, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian being the representatives. But underestimate not the others; they are equally formidable. With powerful beings like the Ancestral Dragon and Eastern King joining the Heavenly Court, its true strength nowadays isn’t actually inferior to ours, except that the Three Realms Supreme lacks real strength of a Heavenly Emperor."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi did not deny this point.

The Heavenly Court’s current Three Realms Supreme, yet does not match their strength.

But, under him is the Eastern King, on par with their level.

If Great Emperor Ziwei ascends to their level, the Heavenly Court’s power will surpass any of their factions.

This refers to without resorting to the power of the Three Pure Ones.

Two figures on par with the Heavenly Emperor, throughout history, no force has ever had.
