Occasionally, a prisoner being tortured in one of the cells would let out a cry of alarm!
My injury is healed!
"Look, I've been framed!"
In many more cells, criminals who had committed crimes not only failed to recover, but instead groaned and howled in pain as their injuries worsened.
While Confucianism's pure spirit cannot distinguish between right and wrong, it greatly benefits those who possess righteousness in their hearts.
……
Yunlu Academy.
Zhao Shou and several other great scholars stared in astonishment at this extraordinary phenomenon of advancement, all exclaiming in amazement.
"This, this is the realm of a second-rank Confucian scholar!"
The second level of Confucianism is called the realm of a great Confucian scholar!
"Dean, after you get promoted, it should be a similar scene!"
Zhao Shou shook his head. "His Majesty the Heavenly King possesses great fortune and the power of all the people under heaven, as well as the aura of the dragon, which is why such a phenomenon can occur."
"Even if I were to advance to the rank of Second-Grade Confucian Scholar, I could never possibly possess such a wondrous phenomenon..."
"Your Majesty the Heavenly King is a true successor of the Confucian sage!"
As they were talking, a stream of pure energy shot out from the Quasi-Saint Academy behind them, soaring into the clouds and sky.
Only by accumulating enough Qi and Luck can one be promoted to the rank of Second-Grade Confucian Scholar.
Upon reaching the second rank, the power of one's words to act becomes even stronger, increasing the ability to withstand the backlash of spells.
It can manipulate fate to a certain extent, gathering or destroying it. Although its operation is not as sophisticated as that of a sorcerer, it has the ability to influence the rise and fall of a dynasty.
Of course, this comes at a great cost.
Because Li Chang'an cultivated the Imperial-level Hegemony Record, his manipulation of fortune was no different from that of a high-level sorcerer, and he was much stronger than an ordinary second-level Confucian scholar.
Xu Mansion.
Li Ru couldn't stop smiling as she looked at the blooming flowers in the courtyard.
Xu Pingzhi's chin, which he injured last night, was also healed by the clear energy, leaving no scars at all.
Just as the couple were having a good time, they suddenly saw Xu Xinnian lift Xu Lingyin high in the air and run wildly through the yard.
"Hurry up, hurry up! Even the second pot of baijiu isn't as fast as Big Brother's knife!"
"Erlang, what are you doing!" Li Ru shouted, one hand on her hip.
Xu Xinnian excitedly exclaimed, "Mother, this is the pure energy from the Heavenly King's advancement to the Great Confucian Scholar. It can cure all diseases and revitalize life. I'll cleanse Lingyin's mind!"
Upon hearing this, Li Ru immediately nudged Xu Pingzhi, "Go and help her, let Lingyin clear her head. Lingyin is going to become a well-educated and refined young lady in the future."
"Oh, okay, okay!" Xu Pingzhi rushed out and, together with Xu Xinnian, began to brainwash Xu Lingyin.
"Dou Ding, what's wrong with you?!" Xu Xinnian shouted.
"My head feels so cold!" Xu Lingyin's sweaty forehead felt cold from the wind as she moved so quickly.
"It's working! Keep it up!" Erlang muttered to himself.
Xu Pingzhi snatched the little girl away, saying, "I'll take care of her. You're too weak to even kill a chicken..."
……
An hour later, large notices were posted at the twelve city gates of the capital.
Countless people gathered at the various city gates, all guessing that the notice must be related to the strange phenomena that had occurred not long ago.
Sure enough, the literate scholar read the notice aloud.
The people then realized what had happened, and were overjoyed, spreading the news far and wide!
"The Heavenly King has bestowed upon the title of Human Emperor, the supreme ruler of the human race throughout the Nine Provinces!"
"The Buddhist kingdom, the barbarian tribes, and the human race in the former lands of the shamanic religion will all revere the Heavenly King as their master!"
"His Majesty the Human Emperor has been promoted to a Great Confucian Scholar, a blessing for the Great Feng Dynasty and a boon for the human race!"
"May Heaven bless the Great Feng!"
……
Bagua Platform.
Huaiqing and Chu Caiwei left one after the other, leaving only Li Chang'an and the supervisor.
The two sat facing each other and began to taste the tea cultivated by Mu Nanzhi.
"Yunzhou has made a move," the supervisor said without any emotion.
Li Chang'an nodded. "They're going to join forces to deal with you: Black Lotus, Xu Pingfeng, Gara Tree, and the White Emperor... or rather, the Great Wilderness."
The supervisor looked up in surprise, "You, a demon from beyond the realm, know far more than I imagined."
As the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao of this world, the Supervisor could not see through Li Chang'an's origins, but his cultivation system was still within the limitations of this world.
This is also why the supervisor dared to trust Li Chang'an, because although Li Chang'an was strong, he was still under his control.
Since they are still within the limitations of this world, a rotten person cannot cultivate Confucianism or Taoism, let alone reach the second rank.
This principle is one that Li Chang'an cannot break.
"If we join forces, we should have no problem dealing with them. My martial arts are about to break through to the first rank."
The supervisor shook his head. "Please don't disrupt my plans. I will be sealed by the Great Wilderness, and then he will take me to the Island of Gods and Demons, where I will find the Heavenly Gate. Then you can come here."
Li Chang'an asked, "You want to utilize the Great Wilderness's talent?"
The supervisor nodded. "That's right, so this plan cannot be changed..."
The words had barely left his lips when a muffled rumble of thunder suddenly echoed in the sky, and several black lightning bolts streaked across the heavens, their faces contorted and terrifying.
"Alright, alright, that's enough. The meaning is conveyed." The supervisor shook his head.
He is a master of destiny, whose main principle is to see through things but not say them.
Li Chang'an could talk freely about future plans, but he couldn't say too much.
Li Chang'an clicked his tongue and sighed, "Alright then, I guess I'll just have to watch you get sealed away."
The Director of the Imperial Observatory smiled and said, "That's great. From now on, you'll be the one in charge of the Great Feng Dynasty, and the Imperial Observatory will be yours too."
Li Chang'an nodded solemnly, "Yes, please rest assured that you can entrust the Imperial Observatory to me."
"You can also leave Caiwei and Zhong Li to me with peace of mind."
"I'm not at ease." The supervisor's face darkened.
“You are the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao of the Great Feng World, it’s about time you returned to the Heavenly Dao,” Li Chang’an said calmly.
"Heaven's way is unpredictable and ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs. To you, Caiwei and Zhong Li should be no different from cats and dogs. I will treat them well."
The supervisor stood up, his back to Li Chang'an, and said, "Go to the Southern Frontier and help the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox release Shen Shu."
"Even if you advance to the first rank, the enemy's strength will not be weak, and Shen Shu will be your greatest helper."
After speaking, the supervisor transformed into a streak of green light and vanished instantly from the Bagua Platform.
Li Chang'an stood up and looked at the capital city, which was still in a state of excitement.
"Xu Pingfeng, Xu Pingfeng, you've really messed things up this time."
[Your influence in the Great Feng world has greatly increased; you are rewarded with 10 Mortal Points!]
Chapter 425 Four Firsts! The Gate of Reincarnation! The Rebellion in Yunzhou!
[You've been bestowed the title of Human Emperor of the Nine Provinces, and your power ranking has risen to number one in this world!]
[Enjoying the former territory of the Great Feng and the Witch God Cult, your wealth ranking has risen to number one in the world!]
[Your flirtatious charm has risen to number one in this world! You're a master of flower arranging, jade-playing, assassinating emperors, and subduing demons!]
[Topped four rankings, 80% of the Gate of Reincarnation is open!]
With the main dragon energy fully collected, Li Chang'an was bestowed the title of Emperor of the Nine Provinces, and his power and wealth naturally reached their peak.
Compared to Emperor Huaiqing, Li Chang'an was like the pope of the Great Feng Dynasty, effectively wielding its power.
Even the Empress herself was unaware that she now had the potential to enjoy immortality as an emperor.
It wasn't because she broke the rule that good fortune couldn't grant immortality, but rather that the fortune of the human race of the Nine Provinces would eventually converge on Li Chang'an.
In other words, the wish that Empress Joan of Arc struggled for two lifetimes to achieve was fulfilled by her granddaughter while she was lying down.
Of course, I'll lie down for a while when I get tired of lying down.
As for the ranking of romantic figures, ever since he was able to arrange flowers and play with jade, he has steadily surpassed the Holy Son of the Heavenly Sect.
After all, although the Holy Son has many confidantes, the rules of the world do not recognize quantity, but rather cultivation level, destiny, appearance, spirit, and so on.
Li Chang'an is currently ranked first in four categories, but his combat strength is still ranked sixth.
Among those of the highest rank, Li Chang'an now has no rivals and can fight opponents of higher ranks.
