Counterattack System appeared when I’m already At The Mahayana Realm Chapter 70 – “The Human Emperor in Tian Sha Pavilion

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: “The Human Emperor in Tian Sha Pavilion

“But the Human Emperor Jiang Li doesn’t hold us in a favorable light, wouldn’t it anger him if we just hung his image up without his consent?”

“Figure it out yourself. All I need is the result.” The deputy Pavilion Master said and left without caring whether his subordinate could accomplish the task.

A few days later, a painting called “The Human Emperor Jiang Li at Tian Sha Pavilion” was hung in the center of the hall, attracting countless spectators and even more questioning looks.

“May I ask, why is only Zhang Konghu dining alone in the Imperial Palace in this painting? Where is the Human Emperor?”

“He’s at the Tian Sha Pavilion.”

While at the Tian Sha Pavilion assigning tasks, everyone came disguised and whispering to negotiate prices. Suddenly, someone shouted out: “Why is my price fifty times higher than others? I’m telling you, I already checked the prices, killing a Golden Core Stage cultivator doesn’t require this much money! The Tian Sha Pavilion is robbing us! This money could kill a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator! ”

The masked assassin explained: “Your Golden Core Stage is different, he’s from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Everyone knows that the Great Zhou Dynasty Family can trace time. Killing someone in the Great Zhou is suicide. If you want to kill, you must lure your target out of the Great Zhou, then you can kill. Even doing so, there is still a high chance of being discovered and retaliated by the Great Zhou. This job is life-risking.”

The man frowned, he couldn’t afford such a high price. After thinking about it, his animosity with the other party didn’t seem so big, so he abandoned the commission.

The assassin wasn’t surprised by this. The Great Zhou Emperor Dynasty was a forbidden area for assassins, even for them at the Tian Sha Pavilion. They were reluctant to step into it and set a ridiculously high price. The high price was partly because of the difficulty, and partly to frighten off the potential commissioners with the high cost.

The assassins of the Tian Sha Pavilion always did their jobs meticulously, they didn’t rush into their assignment as soon as they received it. Instead, they evaluated the target’s power repeatedly to ensure it was stable and studied their living habits, environment, cultivation techniques, etc. Only then did they execute their assignments.

Qin Luan and his disciples wouldn’t face assassination right away, and Jiang Li wouldn’t rush into it either. He had other matters to handle first.

To find a home for the unsettled Immortal Artifacts.

On the way, Jiang Li warned them that anyone who dared to escape would be thrown back into the furnace for reshaping.

Considering Jiang Li’s prior harsh treatment and his mysterious way of capturing them, the Immortal Artifacts dared not to escape and quickly agreed.

Jiang Li first returned the Great Confucian Word Post back to Confucianism.

Confucianism was suppressing a group of disobedient Spiritual Treasures at the time, showing them Confucian scriptures, trying to prove the correctness of “all beings can be taught”.

Seeing the Great Confucian Word Post return, Dong Zhongshu was overjoyed and showed the other Spiritual Treasures how a qualified Spiritual Treasure cultivated by Confucianism is supposed to behave.

“Goddamn it, who wants to hear this crap? I’m tired of listening to Dong

Zhongshu!” The Great Confucian Word Post spouted, and the Spiritual

Treasures seemed to learn cursing much faster than other teachings, taking

the Great Confucian Word Post as their role model.

Dong Zhongshu almost fainted when he heard the Great Confucian Word Post cursing the founder of Confucianism. But since the Great Confucian Word Post holds a prestigious position as the founder’s Immortal Artifact, Dong

Zhongshu couldn’t punish it, or it would breach the hierarchy order that Confucianism advocates.

So, Dong Zhongshu could only suppress his anger.

Seeing such harmony in Confucianism, Jiang Li felt assured and went overseas.

Both the Four Seas and Penglai Fairy Island are located on the other side of the Jiuzhou Continent, which also has a sun. Hence it’s full of life, with shrimps, crabs, fish and flood dragons occasionally leaping out of the sea.

There’s no terrifying pressure on the side of the Jiuzhou Continent as well, so cultivators can visit the Four Seas freely.

Upon arriving at the Four Seas, Jiang Li discovered it was much quieter than before, with only a few low-level shrimp and crab soldiers guarding the place. The high-level monsters were nowhere to be found.

The Penglai Fairy Island was under threat. The previous island lord, with the Mount Heshan Stone, often bullied the Four Sea Dragon Palace, forcing the four Dragon Kings to swallow their tears in silence.

They all had Immortal Artifacts, yet why couldn’t they defeat the Mount Heshan Stone?

Thus, after the Immortal Artifacts left the world, the Four Sea Dragon Kings decided to seek revenge by attacking Penglai Fairy Island together. All of them were neighbors, and they didn’t want to bully the island, just to have it surrender, and acknowledge who was the real lord of the Four Seas!

This day would be the first step in monsters defeating humans!

“Island Lord MO, the Dragon King asked me to send you a message!” The turtle chancellor called to the island lord. “As long as you surrender, the benefits will be immense!”

“What are the benefits?” The beautiful island lord asked expressionlessly.

At this moment, the turtle chancellor rejoiced and said: “The Dragon Kings said that if you fancy any of them, they are willing to marry into Penglai Fairy Island without resistance!”

The island lord was silent for a moment, recalled the dragon-headed human-bodied Dragon Kings, and pulled out a sword emitting a chilling light: “Fight! It’s either life or death.”

“We won’t show mercy to even flowers!” After the negotiation broke down, the four Dragon Kings from the east, south, west, and north transformed into their original forms. Four clawed dragons rose from the sea that were ten thousand meters long, immediately changing the color of the heaven and earth, with thunder resounding.

The huge dragons hung in the air, naturally forming a wave-like shape which was both fierce and beautiful, inspiring both awe and yearning in observers.

Even more so, billions of densely packed shrimp soldiers and crab generals filled the sea surface.

The island lord MO stood on the edge of the cliff, letting the roaring sea waves beat against the rocks below. She was just quietly confronting the four real dragons.

Clearly, Penglai Fairy Island was at a disadvantage, but the island lord MO still overwhelmed the Four Sea Dragon Kings in terms of momentum!

“Let’s get her together, guys. I look down upon anyone who holds back!” Island Lord MO suddenly shouted, catching the Four Sea Dragon Kings off guard.

The Dragon Kings exchanged glances.

Why be reluctant? This was a rare opportunity to take island lord MO as their wife!

Attack!

Just as the Dragon Kings were building up their courage for a full-scale attack, an ill-timed coughing sound traveled, sounding especially clear amid the noise of dragon roars, sea waves, wind, and clamor.

“Ahem, I’ve found the Immortal Artifacts. Who wants them?”

The Four Sea Dragon Kings grabbed the four Dragon Balls and ran. Seeing their Dragon Kings run away, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals scattered and fled in every direction.

Island lord MO laughed and took back the Mount Heshan Stone, chasing after the Dragon Kings. The Four Seas began bustling with life like before.

In the end, Jiang Li came to the palace of the Emperor of Heaven Origin, intending to return the magic gourd to the Empress of Heaven Origin, before going to find Yuan Wuxing and the others.

“Yu Yin, I’ve brought back the gourd of your Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty,” Jiang Li, who had known Empress Yu Yin for a long time and were once candidates for becoming the Human Emperor, had a good relationship and could address each other by name.

Jiang Li found the Empress of Heaven Origin looking pale and listless, lying in the palace with several maids tending to her, which was far removed from her former imperial dominance.

“What happened?” Jiang Li frowned, seeing that the Empress of Heaven Origin was pretending to be sick.

Empress Yu Yin dismissed the maids, leaving her alone with Jiang Li.

After the maids left, the Empress of Heaven Origin stopped pretending and returned to her usual majestic presence, often making people overlook her melodious and crisp voice.

“Someone is plotting a rebellion, so I’m giving them a chance..”
