Chapter 209: Zhunti Taoist Compromise

At this moment, Jade Rabbit came forward and reported: "Master, Yang Nianhe requests an audience."

Tan Tai Ming Yue said, "Let him in."

Upon seeing Tantai Mingyue, Yang Nianhe quickly bowed and said, "Nianhe greets Mother. Sister Yunxiao, Master just sent word that he's taking Master's Wife on a pilgrimage to find a place to establish a Taoist temple. We don't need to return to Luoyi City. I'm going back to Kunlun Mountain's Yaochi to pay my respects to Mother, and I've come to say goodbye."

Tantai Mingyue said, "Nianhe, give my regards to your mother."

"Mother, I remember."

Yang Nianhe left. Tantai Mingyue looked at her daughter and noticed that Zhao Yunxiao was feeling a little down. So she asked, "Yunxiao, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Yunxiao said, "Mother, I'm fine."

Tan Tai Ming Yue sighed, gently stroked her daughter's hair, and comforted her, "Yun Xiao, there's no way between you and Zhao Zilong. Some things can't be forced."

Zhao Yunxiao couldn't help but shed tears. She sobbed and said, "Mother, I really like Senior Brother Zhao. How is Yang Xiaochan better than me? She's not even as pretty as me. Why does Senior Brother Zhao want her instead of me?"

Tan Tai Ming Yue didn't know how to comfort her daughter. If she could reveal Zhao Shanhe's true identity, she wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. She said, "Daughter, it's better not to go back. The catastrophe is approaching. You should stay in the Moon Palace and don't run around."

"Mother, I can't forget Senior Brother Zhao."

Seeing her daughter's sad look, Tan Tai Mingyue felt helpless. Zhao Shanhe's charm was indeed something few women could resist.

In Haojing City, the Zhou Dynasty Emperor Ji Chan was sleeping in his palace when he suddenly had a strange dream. In the dream, he came to a mysterious and solemn starry sky, surrounded by shining stars.

Just as Ji Chan was feeling puzzled, a huge Purple Star suddenly descended from the sky, emitting a dazzling light. He looked closely and found that a majestic man wearing a purple robe and a golden crown sat in the Purple Star. It was the Purple Star Emperor.

Ji Chan was immediately panicked and quickly knelt down to pay his respects, saying, "Ji Chan greets the Great Emperor Ziwei! I wonder what the Emperor's purpose is for coming here?"

Emperor Ziwei's face was as gloomy as water, with a hint of dissatisfaction and disappointment in his eyes. He said, "Ji Chan, Ji Chan, you unfilial descendant, do you still remember the mission of the Ji family?"

Ji Chan replied bewilderedly, "Your Majesty, Ji Chan has always been working hard for the prosperity of the Ji family and dares not slack off even a little bit."

Emperor Ziwei sneered, "Really? Then tell me, what have you been doing all these years? Indulging in sensual pleasures, living a life of drunkenness and debauchery, neglecting state affairs. Is this what you call hard work?"

After hearing this, Ji Chan's face showed a trace of embarrassment, but he still said stubbornly: "Your Majesty, you don't know that although Ji Chan likes to enjoy himself, he dares not slack off for a moment. I have given birth to 108 sons and 250 daughters for the Ji family, far exceeding the 100 sons of our ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Ziwei's face turned pale with anger. He angrily rebuked, "This is absolutely ridiculous! How could the Ji family have an idiot like you?"

Ji Chan was displeased after hearing this. He retorted, "Your Majesty, I beg your pardon. Ever since King You of Zhou set fire to the beacon towers to amuse the princes, the Zhou Dynasty has been on the decline. If you hadn't forcibly extended its life, it would have ceased to exist. But have you ever considered the consequences of defying fate? The Zhou Dynasty has been passed down to my generation, and I am the only legitimate descendant of the Ji family left. If I were truly an idiot, the Ji family would have been wiped out."

Emperor Ziwei sighed and said, "There's an opportunity recently to put the Great Zhou Dynasty back under the control of the Ji family. You must seize it."

Upon hearing this, Ji Chan's face was filled with sorrow. He said, "Your Majesty, the Great Zhou Dynasty has managed to maintain its current situation with great difficulty. Could you please stop tormenting the Ji family?"

Emperor Ziwei said angrily: "What are you talking about?"

"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. My original name was Ji Chenmu, but to show my loyalty to the Zhao Trading Company, I changed it to Ji Chan, the Chan of Chanjiao. Our Ji family's reputation has been tarnished, and the Great Zhou Dynasty's current situation is all thanks to the Zhao Trading Company. If you have any big plans, please send my offspring to a safe place first to avoid breaking the Ji family's heritage. I will risk my life to accompany you in your struggles, and witness the demise of the Great Zhou Dynasty together. Our Ji family's luck has run out. The Great Zhou Dynasty is now surnamed Zhao, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, with no worries about food and clothing. No one will follow suit and make trouble. If you can make Zhao Zilong obey your orders, then all my previous words will be nonsense."

After being scolded by Ji Chan, Emperor Ziwei realized that he was wrong. He originally thought that it was Zhao Zilong who stole the Ji family's kingdom, but in fact it was Zhao Zilong who preserved the Ji family's lineage. Perhaps he was the stupidest one, both back then and now.

Taoist Zhunti felt that his life was full of hard work. Emperor Ziwei patted his chest and guaranteed that he could deal with the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, but in the end he was powerless. He asked him to go to Zhao Zilong for consultation, but after all the trouble, he still couldn't avoid being slaughtered by the Chan Sect.

Yang Xiaochan returned from Heaven and became the Goddess of Childbirth. Naturally, she couldn't stay at Huashan anymore. She needed to find a blessed cave to establish a Taoist temple, recruit soldiers, and improve the system. These tasks fell on Zhao Shanhe, who was more capable and deserved more work.

The two of them had a great time enjoying the scenery along the way. Zhao Shanhe asked, "Xiaochan, what do you think of this place? The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the scenery is gorgeous."

Yang Xiaochan replied, "My dear, this Sanxian Island used to be the territory of the Three Goddesses. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to build a Taoist temple here?"

Zhao Shanhe said disapprovingly, "All three of them have made it into the Conferred God List. This place has been abandoned for tens of thousands of years and is no longer an owner's land. There are only a few kittens left in the Jiejiao sect. If they don't bully him, who else can they bully?"

"Husband, Master Tongtian is not someone you can mess with."

"He's just so-so. Together with our Master, we are invincible in the Three Realms. Besides, the great calamity is approaching, and the Saint cannot take action. Let's occupy this place first. Master Zhunti, you are a saint, can't you be more open and honest? You only do these sneaky things."

After his identity was revealed, the Taoist Zhunti walked out embarrassedly. He said, "Junior Brother Zhao, how did you discover me?"

Zhao Shanhe replied seriously, "It's a secret. What do you want from me?"

Zhunti Taoist said jokingly: "Zhao boy, you are so capable, why not give it a guess."

"Isn't it just the Journey to the West? Emperor Ziwei didn't get it done, and Ji Chan has already reported it to me. The rise of Buddhism is ordained by Heaven, and the Chan Sect will naturally not go against Heaven. You can discuss the specific matters with Ji Chan. As long as you adhere to the following points, I will not interfere. The teachings of Buddhism must be for the benefit of the human race and must not hinder the development of the human race. Everyone has their own way of believing, as long as they do not harm the human race. This applies equally to the Chan Sect."

Taoist Zhunti said, "Young man Zhao, you have the demeanor of a Human Emperor."

Zhao Shanhe replied, "The Human Emperor is in Fire Cloud Cave. How can he be as free and unrestrained as the immortals?"
