After obtaining the key from Princess Yulin, Emperor De did not immediately rush to the Cold Palace. He did not tell anyone and returned to the Forbidden City to continue the affairs of the country.
In the second half of the night, Emperor De secretly left the Forbidden City alone and went to the Cold Palace.
Late at night, he opened the door of the Cold Palace.
As soon as the Cold Palace door was opened, Emperor De did not enter.
Instead, he bowed all the way and said in a deep voice, "The unfilial descendants disturb Great Uncle's rest. I asked Big Uncle for help."
Lin Jiufeng and the white cat who was cultivating opened their eyes.
"Your descendants are here." The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng.
Lin Jiufeng was confused. "How did he know I was here?"
Did the Empress Dowager tell him?
It shouldn't be...
If Empress Dowager wanted to tell Emperor De about her, then she would have already done so five years ago when Princess Yulin was forced to marry into a marriage alliance.
Why wait until now?
Lin Jiufeng originally wanted to ignore him, but Emperor De had addressed him as Great Uncle. His confident tone meant that he knew that Lin Jiufeng was there.
"How do you know about my whereabouts?" Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.
Outside the Cold Palace, Emperor De's expression trembled.
He calmed himself down and said, "That's because I've seen all kinds of information in the last five years, including things that happened decades ago, as well as the relics left behind by my father and grandfather."
"Smart." The white cat praised.
Lin Jiufeng did not expect that Emperor De discovered his identity through his own deduction.
This made Lin Jiufeng think about it very much.
"Isn't the Yuhua God Dynasty okay? Why did you come to find me?"
Seeing he was so smart, Lin Jiufeng decided to ask about his purpose of coming here.
What exactly happened that Emperor De himself came here to look for him? Instead the Empress Dowager came here.
After all, the Empress Dowager was the only one who should have known of her existence. But the Empress Dowager did not come to ask for her help.
Emperor De immediately told him about the recent events in the Yuhua God Dynasty and about the Seven Great Sages of the Monster and Devil Race.
One stood in front of the Cold Palace while the other was inside the courtyard. Their voices were not loud, but both sides could hear each other well.
After Emperor De finished talking about the Seven Sages, he knelt down and begged.
"Uncle Grandfather, Grandfather Emperor and Father left the Yuhua God Dynasty to me in one piece. Not to mention pioneering new territories, but it is my responsibility to guard the ancestral foundation without losing an inch of soil."
"But the Seven Sages are too powerful..."
"The power of secular dynasties like our Yuhua God Dynasty is no match for them. If the land of the Yuhua God Dynasty is handed over by me, then I will truly be a sinner for all eternity. Even if I have to die ten thousand times, I still can't make up for it."
"Today, it is already an unforgivable sin for me, this unfilial descendant, hastily came to your door and disrupted the relaxed cultivation of Great Grandfather Uncle. I just hope that Uncle Grandfather can help the Yuhua God Dynasty and protect the foundation built by our ancestors..."
"In this way, in the afterlife, the Emperor's Grandfather would still smile."
Emperor De has truly grown up.
Five years ago, he was still a stubborn child who did not know how to be responsible and only focused on his own cultivation path.
But now, he had the responsibility of an emperor weighing down on his shoulders.
Lin Jiufeng stood in the courtyard and looked at the wall covered in sword scars.
His gaze was faint as he looked through the walls one after another.
He then looked at Emperor De who was kneeling.
He's impressed.
Lin Jiufeng remembered very clearly that five years ago, the Great Xia Emperor Dragon Sparrow had come to ask for a marriage alliance to maintain peace with the Yuhua God Dynasty.
Court officials are at odds about that.
As an elder brother as well as the Emperor, Emperor De was actually unable to make a decision.
He strongly disagreed and hid in the Forbidden City to cultivate diligently.
If not for Lin Jiufeng, Princess Yulin would not have been able to avoid disaster. The Emperor De from five years ago was really just a child.
But five years later, he was now a man who could shoulder his responsibilities as the Emperor of the God Dynasty.
He knew that with the strength of the Yuhua God Dynasty, it would not be able to withstand the attacks of the Seven Great Sages. At that time, the best result was to compensate them with a large amount of land to calm their anger.
But Emperor De knew that he could not do that. If he did, then he would be the greatest sinner of his lineage. At the end of his wits, he instantly came to look for Lin Jiufeng.
Regardless of his own reputation, he knelt down and sincerely asked for his help.
But why did this so-called Seven Great Sages sound so familiar?
Lin Jiufeng was sure that she had heard this from someone before. "The Seven Great Sages...." The white cat pointed underground with its white claws.
The Demon King said that he was one of the Seven Great Sages, the Pingtian Demon King.
Lin Jiufeng asked curiously, "Who are the Seven Great Sages?" Hearing Lin Jiufeng's question, Emperor De became excited.
As long as Lin Jiufeng was willing to listen, there was hope for her to help.
"They are the Great Sage of the Ocean, Demon King Jiao, the Great Sage of Heaven Chaos, Demon King Dapeng, the Great Sage of the Moving Mountain, Demon King Gui, the Great Sage of the Wind, the Great Sage of the Wind, Demon King Yuan, White-clothed Great Sage, Bai Zilong, Great Sage of Dreams, Yun Shanhai, and Bull Great Sage, Leveling Heaven."
Emperor De mentioned their names.
When Lin Jiufeng heard about the Heaven leveling Great Bull Sage, she revealed an 'as expected' expression on her face.
The Bull Great Sage leveled Heaven, one of the Seven Great Sages of the Monster Race and the Demon Race, was currently being suppressed within the demon lair.
Just today, he was defeated by Lin Jiufeng and the latter used him to enter to obtain a good item.
Sword Intruder Technique!
And on the night of the same day, Emperor De came to ask for help, told Lin Jiufeng that the other members of the Seven Sages would come to the Yuhua God Dynasty to request a plot of land from the God Dynasty.
Lin Jiufeng looked at Emperor De and said, "Go back and find out how many of the Seven Great Sages are coming, and where they will move now. Also, don't tell anyone about me."
Emperor De was overjoyed.
When he heard this, he was finally convinced.
He felt as if a huge burden was lifted from his chest.
Emperor De hurriedly kowtowed a few times and replied happily, "I'll go back and investigate the matter thoroughly before returning here to report!"
"Go," said Lin Jiufeng gently.
Emperor De stood up and carefully closed the door of the Cold Palace before rushing back to investigate.
From beginning to end, he had never seen Lin Jiufeng with his own eyes.
But after hearing Lin Jiufeng's voice, he felt an urge to trust Lin Jiufeng in his heart.
This may be a form of trust that comes from their bloodline relationships.
For some reason, Lin Jiufeng's words alone were enough to dampen her panic and fear.
...
After Emperor De left, Lin Jiufeng and the white cat looked at each other.
"Do you want to interfere in this?" The white cat asked.
"Yes. If the Imperial Court were to start handing over land to compensate them, his death would have been imminent." Lin Jiufeng nodded.
If there is a first time, there will be a second, a third time.
Lin Jiufeng did not want the Yuhua God Dynasty - which had been reformed with great difficulty by Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming - to fall into ruin in just three generations.
"You're gonna interfere?" The white cat lay on Lin Jiufeng's shoulder and gently asked.
Lin Jiufeng thought for a moment.
Then, he answered seriously. "Maybe ..maybe I don't need to stop the Seven Sages myself."
"If you don't show up and stop the Seven Sages, who might be able to defeat them out there?" The white cat.
The Seven Great Sages of the Monster and Devil Race were not beings that the Human God Realm could match.
Lin Jiufeng smiled and said, "Indeed, no one from the Yuhua God Dynasty can fight them, but there is someone who might be able to."
"Who?" The white cat asked curiously.
His eyes, which seemed to have celestial objects in them, looked at Lin Jiufeng.
Reflected in his eyes were not only the stars but also Lin Jiufeng.
"Didn't you see her this morning?" Lin Jiufeng asked softly.
"Great Bull Sage leveling Heaven? The Demon King?" The white cat remembered.
That Pingtian Demon King was one of the Seven Great Sages.
"What effect do you think it would have if I let go and asked him to settle this matter for me?" Lin Jiufeng told the white cat her plan.
"Be careful about creating problems for yourself. Those demons cannot be taken lightly. Once they absorbed the spiritual energy in the outside world, their strength would increase tremendously." The white cat was worried.
"It's okay. As long as I exist, the Imperial Capital and the Yuhua God Dynasty will never fall into chaos!" Lin Jiufeng was confident.
"Then why don't you stop the Seven Wise Men?" The white cat asked curiously.
It's uncomfortable for me to fight now, I'm waiting for spring and first rain!"
Lin Jiufeng simply stated.
"Waiting for more rain?" The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise.
Lin Jiufeng only smiled.
But in the end, he said nothing.
