Because of the Sacrifices, There Are Great Ambitions
Chapter 883: Sacrifice brings great ambition
Yan'er was in a dilemma. The woman holding the lantern urged her repeatedly. Yan'er followed her into the peach forest, looking back every three steps, and gradually disappeared into the depths of the forest.
Long Qilin came to Qin Mu and said, "Master, where are we going?"
Qin Mu lowered his head, and after a moment, he raised his head and said, "Let's go to Xianglong City first."
The dragon unicorn's body shook, revealing its true form.
Taoist Master Lin Xuan stepped forward and said to Qin Mu: "Master Qin, the Taoist Ancestor asked me to move my sect away from Yankang and seek refuge in Qingyuntian."
Qin Mu nodded silently.
"Master, don't you plan to say anything?" Taoist Lin Xuan couldn't help but ask.
Qin Mu jumped to Long Qilin's forehead, looked down, and said, "Perhaps if we leave Qingshan behind, there will be a chance to light the fire in the future. Master Lin, take care!"
Daoist Master Lin Xuan hurriedly asked, "Master Qin, why don't you hide for a moment?"
Qin Mu smiled, and Lin Xuan felt that this guy's smile was truly pure.
"The Chiming Revolution was to prove that humans can be as powerful as gods. The Shanghuang Revolution was to fight for the right of human survival. Human life is equal to that of gods, and human life is above heaven. The Kaihuang Reform is to continue the achievements of the Shanghuang Revolution. Human life is above heaven, and gods and demons are used by humans, and the power of gods and demons is locked in a cage."
Qin Mu said: "The Yankang Reform continued the Kaihuang Reform in order to return the truth to the people, and the people's daily life is the right way. The revolutionary reforms of the three eras cannot end in the Yankang era and be stolen by the outer heaven. Chi Ming, Shang Huang, and Kai Huang, too many heroes died for the revolutionary reforms. They used their lives as sacrifices for the revolutionary reforms of the three eras and sacrificed themselves. These people of lofty ideals all sacrificed themselves to make future generations live better. If the Yankang Reform also needs sacrifices..."
He pursed his lips, his voice was soft but sonorous and powerful, shocking: "Let's start with the three heroes of the Reform! As the Heavenly Saint Sect Leader and Human Emperor Qin Mu among the three heroes of the Yankang Reform, I am ready. Daoist Master Lin, go to Qingyuntian and leave some fire for the Yankang Reform. Fatty Long, let's go--"
Long Qilin took a step forward, clouds appeared under his feet, and ran towards Xianglong City.
Taoist Priest Lin Xuan watched them go away, lost in thought: "For an ideal... Priest Qin, I once thought you were an abandoned person from Daxu, and I once thought you were the Demon Priest of the Heavenly Demon Sect. I never thought you were a Yankang person, but I didn't expect that when disaster strikes, you would be the most determined person. As a native of Yankang, I have to lead the Taoist sect to leave Yankang..."
The dragon unicorn gathered all its magical power and galloped all the way.
This time he did not slack off, nor did he hide his speed to get more elixirs, but ran for his life.
In the past, in order to exchange for more elixirs, he always increased his speed little by little, so that Qin Mu could see his progress and refine more elixirs for him. Now, he no longer had such thoughts.
Long Qilin ran for two days but still did not see the original border of Daxu. But now he had great endurance and did not feel tired after running at full speed for two days.
Suddenly, a green bird flapped its wings and flew over from behind, landed on Long Qilin's head, fed Long Qilin an elixir, and said with a smile: "I'm back again!"
Qin Mu and Long Qilin were surprised and happy: "Sister Yan'er, why are you back?"
"Your Majesty has many maids around her, and I am not a big deal."
The bluebird chirped and spoke quickly: "Besides, the queen doesn't like me serving her either. She always says that I want to feed her until she's fat. This time I've fed myself until I'm fat, and she probably doesn't like it even more. Instead of being bullied there, why not come out and have fun? At least you won't be afraid of me feeding you until you're fat."
Qin Mu shook his head and said, "It will be dangerous to follow us, Sister Yan'er, you should go back. When the turmoil breaks out, I'm afraid that the peach forest will be the only safe place in the Yuanjie."
Yan'er smiled and said, "I will go back when danger comes. I'm just worried about you. Without my care, you won't be able to take care of yourselves. You are all little chicks, and Long Pang, you are too slow!"
She revealed her true form, transformed into a chubby dragon bird, and said with a smile: "Get on my back, I'm faster!"
She carried Qin Mu and Long Qilin on her back and flew to the vicinity of Xianglong City in less than a day. Qin Mu landed and checked the surrounding geography. The Yuanjie was broken and the geography had changed greatly. He only deduced the approximate location of Xianglong City and did not have a detailed geographical map.
"That's... the Temple of the Heavenly King!"
Qin Mu's eyes lit up, and his gaze fell on a dilapidated Tianwang Temple. He said, "The Tianwang Temple is not far from Xianglong City. If you find this Tianwang Temple, you can find Xianglong City very quickly! Fatty Long, do you remember the time when the Tianwang stone statue rode on you to kill the Dragon King? That's the temple in front!"
Long Qilin snorted, remembering the incident vividly.
At this moment, a group of skeletons came running, carrying a sign that said "Silence and Keep Away", and headed straight for the Temple of the Heavenly King. The voices of the skeletons could be heard from afar: "Heavenly King Zhenhai, the Kaihuang Emperor has issued an edict: A great turmoil is about to break out, and the Heavenly King Zhenhai is ordered to gather the troops from all over the world, abandon Daxu, and enter Fengdu to temporarily avoid the attack from the outer heaven! After the Heavenly King Zhenhai has gathered his troops, he will go to join the Green Emperor and return to his position as his subordinate."
The voice of the Heavenly King Zhenhai came: "I have received your order!"
The team of white skeletons walked out of the Tianwang Temple again, carrying the signs and speeding away.
Qin Mu was in doubt, but he heard the voice of the Heavenly King Zhenhai coming from the Heavenly King Temple: "Bring the sword! Lead my horse!"
When Long Qilin heard the words "lead my horse here", he couldn't help but shudder.
Qin Mu walked forward and saw a stone statue walking out of the temple. The statue was rapidly transforming from stone to flesh and blood.
This Heavenly King of the Sea was fully armed and holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade. He flipped over and jumped onto the stone horse in front of the temple gate. The stone horse was also rapidly transforming. The dragon scales on its body quickly turned green, its hooves exploded into dragon claws, and the horse's tail turned into a dragon's tail. It had a mouth full of fangs and opened its mouth to hiss loudly, with a hissing sound like thunder.
Qin Mu greeted him and said, "Heavenly King Zhenhai, I am Qin Mu, the 107th grandson of Kaihuang. I have met you once. May I ask, Heavenly King Zhenhai, what orders does Kaihuang have this time?"
The Heavenly King Zhenhai reined in his Qinglong horse, looked at him, and said with a smile: "I remember that dragon Qilin. I once rode it in the middle of the night to kill the rebellious dragon of the East China Sea. The Emperor Kai sent a decree from Wuyou Township, ordering the gods under the command of the Qinghuang of our Eastern Qingtian Palace to abandon Daxu, retreat comprehensively, and preserve their strength. Since you are a member of the Emperor Kai, you should know that the situation is dangerous and you can go to Fengdu for refuge. Go——"
He took up his sword and rode away.
Qin Mu frowned, feeling a little uneasy.
Kaihuang's order is to retreat comprehensively and preserve strength, which means that the four great heavenly masters and the four heavenly kings, including Qiaofu, Wudou Tianshi, Di Yiyue, and Tian Shu, will also receive Kaihuang's order to abandon Yankang.
Yankang originally survived thanks to the protection of the remaining troops of Kaihuang. Now that Kaihuang's order has been issued, the Four Heavenly Masters, the Four Heavenly Kings, and even Fengdu will retreat and will not help Yankang at all!
He calmed himself down and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's go to Xianglong City."
On the way, Qin Mu saw that in each village and city, stone statues were awakening and turning from stone into flesh and blood. The gods and men of the Kaihuang era gathered together, formed an army, and left the land they originally guarded.
The people of Daxu stood at the entrance of the village and in front of the city gate, watching these gods who protected them leave, their eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
Qin Mu followed the army of gods and men to Xianglong City. The army of gods and men crossed the bridge between life and death in Xianglong City and walked into Fengdu.
Xianglong City was also silent. There were many temples and stone statues in the city. At this moment, these stone statues also revived and entered Fengdu one after another.
"Master Qin!"
Most of the people in the city were disciples of the Tiansheng Sect. They soon discovered that Qin Mu had entered the city. Master Tianwang led several hall masters and came over. They asked in panic, "Master, what happened?"
Qin Mu waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'll take care of everything, don't panic." After that, he also walked between life and death and entered Fengdu.
The Palace of King Qin in Fengdu.
The face of the King of Hell was hidden under the dark cloak. He said, "Qin Jiazi, there is no need to say anything. I know why you are here. No matter what, we are still the people of Kaihuang, not the people of Yankang. As the subordinates of Kaihuang, we must obey the order of Kaihuang!"
Qin Mu's forehead was bulging with veins, and he clenched his fists. "What about human lives? What about the lives of the people in Yankang? You command the most powerful army in the Kaihuang era. Do you want to watch countless lives in Yankang be destroyed? That's hundreds of millions of lives. Their ancestors were also Kaihuang people!"
There was no emotion in the King of Hell's voice: "Kaihuang is my adoptive father. He has his own plans. He handed over the gods and demons under his command to me, so I have to take responsibility. The Four Heavenly Masters and the Four Heavenly Kings have also received orders and have evacuated from Yankang. Qin Jiazi, Qin Mu, you are the descendant of Kaihuang after all, come to Fengdu, Fengdu is backed by Youdu, you can retreat or defend."
Qin Mu was extremely disappointed. He stood up and said with a chuckle, "I am a descendant of the Qin family, but I am also the Human Emperor. The lineage of the Human Emperor Palace has gone through thirty-seven generations since the first Human Emperor. All thirty-seven generations of Human Emperors have fought hard for the people of Yankang, and none of them have retreated. I cannot break the inheritance of the Human Emperor Palace. Farewell!"
He walked out of the Qin Palace.
Outside the hall, thousands of gods and demons stood bowed, waiting quietly.
"Seven-killing Star Lord Wei Liao, I pay my respects to you, benefactor!"
The leading general said in a deep voice: "Wei Liao is dead and is no longer a subordinate of Kaihuang. I am willing to follow you to fight!"
Qin Mu stared at them in a daze, forced a smile, and said, "Lord Wei Liao, you may lose your souls..."
Wei Liao laughed loudly: "We died once for Emperor Kai, so what's the harm in dying again for the benefactor? Brothers, are you afraid?"
Thousands of gods and demons laughed loudly: "You weren't afraid 20,000 years ago, how can you be afraid again after death? You are unworthy of being a ghost hero!"
Qin Mu bowed deeply to the ground and said, "On behalf of the people of Yankang, I thank you all! I also ask you to relocate the people in Daxu and send them to the cities of Yankang for resettlement!"
Just as he was about to leave, he saw a group of strange-looking old men and women and handsome men and beautiful women coming over and making a lot of noise.
The leader was the young ancestor, who kicked Long Qilin aside and said with a smile: "After all, we are not Kaihuang's subordinates. It is righteous to die for Yankang."
Qin Mu was stunned. Those handsome men and beautiful women, as well as old men and old women, were all the successive leaders of the Tiansheng Sect. They were full of smoke and miasma, and they all said, "We are the Tiansheng Sect, not the Tianmo Sect. It's useless to stay here. We should go and do some serious work!"
Qin Mu stopped talking, bowed deeply to all the successive leaders of the Tiansheng Sect and the young ancestor, and did not stand up for a long time.
The young master helped him up and said with a smile: "This is not just your problem, it's our problem. We can't let you shoulder it alone. You go first. We demons and ghosts have been hiding here for so long, it's time to get out of the mountain."
Qin Mu stood up and left with Long Qilin and Yan'er.
He came to the point between life and death, but saw a small boat floating on the Nai River. The old man in a straw raincoat and hat on the boat took off his hat and said with a smile: "Emperor Qin, I will give you a ride."
Qin Mu boarded the boat, and Taoist Ling Jing rowed the boat and carried them upstream to the world of the dead. He turned into nine white bones and said leisurely, "The housing prices in Fengdu are rising day by day. I can't afford to buy a house on both sides of the Nai River. Emperor Qin, the situation outside is very dangerous."
Qin Mu was silent for a moment, then said, "Master Ling Jing, you are already dead, so there is no need to think about these things anymore."
Taoist Ling Jing smiled and said, "I have fought with your master, Emperor Su, for my whole life. He cut off one of my fingers. I hated him very much, but when he took out the Emperor Seal, I went to help with the Heavenly Demon Patriarch. It's because the human race and other races in Yankang were all saved by the Emperor. It's meaningless for me to row a boat here to ferry people. I might be able to buy a small house on both sides of the Nai River after a few thousand or tens of thousands of years. Instead of this, it's better to have another big fight. If the Heavenly Demon Patriarch goes, I want to go too."
Qin Mu said in a hoarse voice: "Master Ling Jing, you and the ancestor died for Yankang and blocked the heaven, but no one in Yankang knows that you are a hero who protects them."
Taoist Ling Jing rowed his boat through the mountains of bones and said with a smile, "But I know I am a hero. I will follow my heart and do things. You have reached the shore, and the person on the ferry next time you come may not be me."
Qin Mu jumped off the boat, bowed, and the boat left, disappearing among the fog and bones.
