Chapter 885 - 336:
336.The Vajra Sect Leader finally left the Western Region Buddhism and publicly appeared in the Great Tang Realm.
His first stop was not to the Great Tang Imperial Capital Luoyang.
Of course, the reason was very legitimate.
The Land of Bashu is currently plagued by Netherworld heretical path cultivators, threatening the territory of Great Tang, and the common people face danger.
With compassion in his heart, the Vajra Sect Leader, upon arriving in the Mortal Realm, first headed to the battlefield, to aid the common people, rescue the endangered, and alleviate their distress.
From the Western Region where the portal of Sumi Cave opens, heading to Bashu conveniently allows him to pass through the Snow Mountains of Western Sichuan.
The highly esteemed monk from the Xumi Vajra Sect travels southward, passing by the secret ancestral altar of the Yellow Sky Sect, which naturally seems quite fitting.
He wanted to meet the now famous Lei Jun.
For the time being, he had no further thoughts.
Although the information received mentioned that Lei Jun also had injuries due to the battle with Huang Xuanpu.
However, Tang Xiaotang carries the Celestial Master’s Three Treasures in Bashu, and Xu Yuanzhen’s whereabouts are currently unknown.
Of course, if there was a pleasant surprise, it would be naturally desirable for the Xumi Vajra Sect.
Unfortunately, by the time this Vajra Sect Leader arrived in Western Sichuan, Lei Jun had already returned to the mountain.
This esteemed monk from the Western Region maintained a good demeanor and did not feel disappointed.
Facing Elder Miaokong of Tianlong Temple and Shangguan Ning of the Celestial Master Mansion, Chu Kun, and others, he exhibited a dignified and courteous appearance.
Although Elder Miaokong, Chu Kun, and others held reservations about the Western Region Buddhism, they all showed complete respect and courtesy towards this mysterious Vajra Sect Leader.
The other party didn’t linger at the Snow Mountains of Western Sichuan for long, continuing southward to the Land of Bashu.
......
Xinzhou, the Sacred Land Ancestral Court of the Taoist Talisman Sect on Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Celestial Master Mansion headquarters.
Lei Jun and several fellow disciples brought back a group of Yellow Sky Sect disciples to the mountain.
Zhang Jingzhen welcomed him: "Lei."
She greeted first.
Lei Jun returned the greeting: "Zhang."
He handed over the list compiled by Chu Kun to the other: "I’m injured in the spiritual soul, feeling mentally unwell, so I need to rest for a while, I’ll leave this side to you."
Zhang Jingzhen replied: "Rest assured, Lei. The mountain gate is ready under Master Yuan’s guidance, and I’ll coordinate with Shangguan and Fang, and Chu to handle the matter of Yellow Sky Sect’s return."
Lei Jun: "The birth of Yellow Sky Sect had its special reasons. Among them, some are stubborn, but some have realized and returned. Now that they are returning, it’s ultimately a good thing for our sect and the entire Taoist Talisman lineage. However, there’s no need to rush. We’ll first make the initial arrangements, and when Sect Leader and Elder Sister return, we can discuss and decide on the final strategy together."
"Your consideration is thorough, Lei." Zhang Jingzhen understood the sentiment.
The existence of the Yellow Sky Sect is somewhat sensitive for Celestial Master Mansion, considered a dark Chapter.
Even though the Yellow Sky Sect is currently weakened and unlikely to rise, Celestial Master Mansion must still handle it with care.
Lei Jun evidently does not intend to employ all means to erase this dark history completely.
Although Zhang Jingzhen remembered that Lei Jun did not have intense conflicts with the Li Clan disciples, and even didn’t directly participate in the battle against Li Wai.
Now he also maintains a relatively mild attitude towards the Yellow Sky Sect.
This contrasts with his approach when facing opponents among Mortal Path Country people or Great Ming Cultivators.
Such style has advantages and disadvantages, but for Zhang Jingzhen, a fellow heir of Celestial Master Mansion or a cultivator of the Taoist Talisman Sect, it’s certainly better than Lei Jun being a fierce and ruthless person.
Although Lei Jun appears indifferent externally, he acts decisively when necessary, but not cold to the point of cruelty... thought Zhang Jingzhen.
Such a person taking charge of Celestial Master Mansion is more suitable than both the Elder Sister and the current Sect Leader.
In recent years, Zhang Jingzhen’s previous thoughts had faded.
She was not as competitive as before, but rather felt a sense of relief clearing the obstructions in her heart.
In her cultivation, she gained a broader perspective.
Thus, Zhang Jingzhen devoted herself more calmly to cultivation and earnestly carried out her responsibilities and rights as a high-level elder within the mansion, without idleness or overthinking.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Jingzhen, Lei Jun went to see his Master Yuan Mobai.
Yuan Mobai had a smile as usual, like a refreshing spring breeze: "The matter of the Mortal Path Country has finally come to a temporary halt."
Regarding Shang Nan, Xue Xingzi, and the so-called existence of the Western White Emperor, he had already heard of it.
However, the Western White Emperor was defeated, Shang Nan and Xue Xingzi perished, so the so-called Taoist Country here in the Great Tang Mortal Realm will hardly rise in the short term.
"The other side should indeed come from the Ming Realm."
Lei Jun said: "I think they arrived at Great Tang possibly through the legendary Penglai, but the specific route is still uncertain."
The Ming Realm and Great Tang Mortal Realm are not connected.
Even Xu Yuanzhen did not truly succeed in entering the Ming Realm.
Though the current information mentioned the Western White Emperor’s sophisticated flying sword as delving deeply into the mysteries of the void, Lei Jun still speculated that they did not traverse directly through the void between Great Tang and Ming Realm.
He was more inclined to believe that they might have used Penglai, rumored in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, as a transit.
There, it might also be the place where Huang Xuanpu and the Western White Emperor became affiliated with the Heavenly Palace, giving birth to their respective Mortal Realm’s Taoist Country.
Moreover, given titles like the Western White Emperor, there might be more than just her and Huang Xuanpu.
Penglai is linked to multiple Mortal Realms.
However, it doesn’t necessarily have a stable void gateway, with many secrets not yet clear.
Among the items left behind by Huang Xuanpu, Shang Nan, and Xue Xingzi, Lei Jun planned to examine them more thoroughly later.
"This Western White Emperor, along with Shang Nan and Xue Xingzi, and their Taoist Country might not yet be exposed in the Ming Realm, continuing to develop secretly, which is why their actions seem restrained and cautious."
