Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

The Wooden Sword Immortal also looked desolate.

Upon hearing this, Li Lan was instantly shocked, and a surge of anger erupted from his heart.

The gray fog retreated and has not invaded for a century... How could this be credited to the Celestial Court?

joke!

He personally entered the Ten Thousand Mountain Range, carrying strange power, and retrieved the black dog hair. He risked his life to negotiate against the strange kings and finally won peace... Now, it turns out that he has done all the work for someone else.

Li Lan never cared about empty fame, but at this moment, he was still extremely angry!

The Celestial Court remained indifferent to the bitter battles and fall of the northern frontier, never sending a single soldier. Now that Li Lan has brought about the overall situation, they suddenly emerge to reap the rewards, stealing the credit for a century of peace...

Li Lan didn't care if it was just about stealing credit.

However, the Celestial Court actually intends to advocate for peace...

They are exploiting the praise and trust of the world to lead people down the path of alienation!

His intentions... are despicable.

Moreover, the fact that the Celestial Court was able to produce a peace treaty signed with the strange kings indicates what?

This indicates that the Celestial Court had already been in contact with, or even cooperating with, the Gray Mist.

"King Yu".

Combining the information from before and after, Li Lan understood everything; the enemy's entire scheme was laid bare before his eyes.

An Daozi only managed the refining array for Taihong Tianzun, regardless of the time spent conquering the Immortal Realm. Nan Wang and Qi Wang, having deep faith in Li Lan's identity, would not do such a thing.

The only possibility is the Feather King.

Seeing that Li Lan had successfully driven back the gray mist, the Feather King could no longer force the Southern King and the Qi King to continue their attack on the Immortal Realm. So he simply cooperated with the Immortal Court and, before Li Lan had even returned, preemptively gave this great achievement to the Immortal Court.

With the Celestial Court holding the covenant, the Gray Mist's retreat, and a century of peace, the world naturally attributed it all to the Celestial Court. Moreover, since peace was on the horizon, why wage war again?

The Feather King's move served two purposes: first, it ensured Li Lan's mission ended in failure; second, it allowed the Celestial Court to accumulate immense prestige and popular support. If the Celestial Court were to propose peace, the world would likely respond accordingly.

one stone two bird.

Moreover, by doing so, he did not violate the Black Emperor's decree of "a century of peace," which is why the Southern King and the Qi King agreed to cooperate.

Yu Wang is truly a cunning and ruthless old fox!

"Li Lan, is that right? Come here, leave your essence blood for identity verification!"

The city's garrison commander, still displeased from being pressured by the Wooden Sword Immortal and Cao Yueshu, deliberately made things difficult for the city, sarcastically saying:

"The Celestial Court has paid a heavy price to bring peace to the world. We who guard the border must be careful and vigilant, lest we be deceived by those who are charlatans and frauds..."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Li Lan's face darkened, and he suddenly raised his hand and threw a punch!

"what?"

The immortal general's expression changed drastically. He was a Golden Immortal, but now, facing Li Lan's killing intent, he was completely unable to resist. With a miserable cry, he was severely injured!

"Li Lan, no!"

"This will give others ammunition to criticize us!"

Cao Yueshu and Mu Jianxian's expressions changed, and they hurriedly spoke.

Li Lan's situation in the Immortal Realm is definitely not good!

They all understood that when Li Lan revealed that he had met the Mingzun and received teachings from him, he had already placed himself on the opposite side of the Celestial Court.

It wouldn't be easy for the Celestial Court to openly kill Li Lan. After all, Li Lan now holds the Northern Heaven Token and is regarded as a meritorious official of the Northern Frontier. Moreover, in the eyes of the world, the Bright Lord is also a great hero who sacrificed himself for his country...

But if Li Lan is now accused of "forcibly breaking into the immortal gate and killing the guards," then he'll be in trouble!

"You... crippled my cultivation?"

The immortal general fell to the ground, horrified and furious, and cried out, "You actually attacked me! How dare you..."

"If you dare utter another word, I'll kill you!"

Li Lan simply spoke in a cold voice!

Sensing Li Lan's icy killing intent, the immortal general trembled instantly, daring not to say anything more, his eyes filled with boundless resentment and hatred.

"Tell the Lord of the Celestial Court that whether it's Lin Ruoxue or the Feather King, one day I will kill them. Think carefully before cooperating with them."
