Chapter 284 Xia Zhongnan Returns
Chapter 284 Xia Zhongnan Returns
Xu Qian approached, took his arm, and comforted him: "It's okay, Senior Brother Gongsun forged the 'Evil-Repelling Holy Sword' for me. As his guardian, it is your duty to help him break through. We have known each other for many years, so what's there to be afraid of if the wedding is postponed a little?"
So they waited for good news in Tianbing Pavilion.
In the outside world, day after day, people waiting for Xia Zhongnan's return were anxious. When Xia Zhongnan left, he did not reveal his whereabouts, only telling them that he would be back in the short term.
Unexpectedly, after this separation, there was no news from each other.
Xu Dejing, Xu Shouting, Xu Qin and other members of the Xu family were extremely anxious. They saw that Xu Dejing was about to become a royal relative, and the others would also be promoted to royal relatives, but now the newcomers were missing.
Important officials such as Qu Tongtian and Tang Huaigang were also confused. The celebration of the king was ready, and the lords and officials of various states gathered in the summer capital, but the king and the queen were missing. They didn't know how to respond for a while.
No one dared to cancel the wedding without permission. What if the king and queen arrived at the auspicious time? If they didn't cancel it, what would happen if they didn't come?
In the end, everyone invited Xu Dejing to make the decision. Everything should be prepared first, and the ceremony will be held as soon as the newlyweds come back. If they cannot come back, they can only choose another good time.
However, the wedding date had already been announced, and the sudden postponement of the king's wedding was probably an unprecedented absurd event in the Donggu Territory.
Xia Zhongnan did not return, and everyone in Daxia was embarrassed, while others were even more worried. Yi Guangshan hurried to the capital of Xia twice, hoping to meet with Xia Zhongnan and request the two countries to unite against Maitreya, but both times were unsuccessful, and he left in despair.
Fortunately, after Mile City occupied seven states of Mang State, it withdrew its offensive against the other four states, which made Yi Guangshan slightly relieved.
However, the four ancient Buddhas and 160 venerables of the Western Religion were in great pain. They lay in ambush in the wilderness leading to the border of Daxia and Mang, waiting day after day.
As Xia Zhongnan has not shown up yet, Yutian Ancient Buddha, Zhenzhuo Ancient Buddha and Bai Zhige have determined that he will not come again. In the Maitreya Sect's Xiangzhou camp, Zhenzhuo Ancient Buddha said worriedly: "Brother, half a month has passed, and there is still no movement from Xia Kingdom. Intelligence shows that Xia Zhongnan is not in Xia Capital at all, and even his sacred wedding has been postponed. Now that we are no longer attacking Mang Kingdom, Xia Zhongnan may not send troops again. What do you think, should we let King Kong Ancient Buddha and others return to Maitreya City?"
Yutian Ancient Buddha sighed: "Let them continue to 'lurk and wait for orders'. Returning to Maitreya City means that our operation has completely failed, and they will cause more disputes." However, under Bai Zhige's reminder, Yutian Ancient Buddha was unwilling to make a decision easily and let these people return to Maitreya City. As long as they go back, they will definitely fight for the leadership of Maitreya Church on the grounds that the two ancient Buddhas made a mistake in judgment...
As long as the seal is not broken, if they return without permission, they will be disobeying orders, and the two ancient gods and Buddha statues will be able to find reasons to nitpick the omissions in seeking help.
Even if this wait will eventually come to an end, we still have to delay it day by day to see who can hold on to the end.
At the border of Daxia, at the foot of a hidden mountain, four ancient gods and Buddhas gathered.
The four of them looked solemn.
If anyone was forced to stay in this wilderness for a long time, without a campfire, shelter, or any behavior that might reveal their whereabouts, they would probably not be able to remain happy.
What's more, these beings hold an extraordinary status in the Western Temple.
The Vajra Ancient God Buddha said: "Wuxiang, Yutian always conveys the same six words 'lurking and waiting for orders'. I don't think Xia Zhongnan will show up at all. Do we still have to wait here?"
The ancient Buddha Wu Xiang pondered and said, "He said 'lie low and wait for orders', so we should continue to wait! I want to see how long Yu Tian can let us stay here like fools! How are you all now, venerable ones?"
The Colorless Ancient God and Buddha replied: "Even we are almost reaching the limit of our patience, not to mention them, everyone is dissatisfied."
The ancient god Wu Xiang said: "Okay! I will make the venerables unbearable and make them complain about Yu Tian.
The more dissatisfied they are with Yutian, the more they will support us.
As long as the majority of the venerables stand on our side, I don't think Yutian will be able to act arbitrarily!"
These four ancient gods and Buddhas have made up their minds that after this operation is completed, they will immediately seize the dominance of Maitreya Holy City from the ancient god and Buddha Yutian.
Where there are people, there are disputes. No matter which force it is, the struggle for power is inevitable.
Gongsun Kehua's integration approach lasted for more than three months.
On this day, auspicious clouds suddenly floated above Zilei Peak.
Lan Gongfu shouted excitedly: "Master Brother has succeeded in the fusion!"
After saying that, he took the lead and flew towards the holy land of preaching.
Immediately afterwards, the entire Tianbing Pavilion became boiling with disciples at all levels cheering and rushing towards the holy land of preaching.
Xia Zhongnan, Xu Qiao and Liu Dabazi were also at ease, blending in with the disciples of Tianbing Pavilion as they headed towards the holy land.
Feeling the joy of the disciples of Tianbing Pavilion, Xu Qiao said: "Xiao Fei, I am so looking forward to the moment when you break through and merge! At that time, our Daxia will be full of singing and dancing, and the whole nation will celebrate!"
Liu Dabazi said: "I really didn't expect Xiaofei to be so outstanding as a leader! Although our Daxia has only been established for a short time, the mental outlook of the people is completely different from that of Wuguo. Everyone is full of vitality!"
Xia Zhongnan said: "We have to thank Fang'er for her hard work. It is because of the 'Flying Eagle Guards' all over the country who are upholding justice for the people that they are no longer oppressed by monks and officials, and their spirits are naturally high!"
Although his words were plain, he was actually looking forward to the moment when his fusion would succeed.
However, cultivation has no end. For those powerful ones, fusion is only the initial stage.
One must at least be promoted to a celestial being before being able to travel in the sea of stars.
I wonder when I can become a fairy?
Perhaps then, he could begin to search for the location of the Milky Way and the sun in the abyss of the starry sky...
When Xia Zhongnan and the other two stepped into the legendary preaching square, Gongsun Kehua had already come forward, surrounded by disciples of the Tianbing Pavilion.
When he saw Xia Zhongnan, he clasped his hands together and said, "Xiao Fei, I was able to break through and integrate the way of heaven and earth, all thanks to your teachings and guidance. Please accept my greetings!"
Before he finished speaking, he bowed. Xia Zhongnan quickly supported him and said with a smile, "Brother Gongsun, it was you who invited me to participate in the trial of the Heavenly Soldiers Pavilion that gave me many revelations. These insights were given back to you. We have achieved mutual success. There is no need to be so polite!"
Lan Gongfu added: "Master and the uncles are traveling outside. When they return, they will be overjoyed. Not only do we have five more ethereal realm cultivators, but our eldest brother has successfully integrated the way of heaven and earth!"
Gongsun Kehua responded: "I have just tasted the secrets of the Way of Fusion and have many insights. I plan to preach here and share my experience with everyone. Xiaofei, you guys should come and listen too!"
Xia Zhongnan sighed: "Now I am the Lord of Daxia. I have been away from my country for a long time. I don't know what the world has become. I have no choice but to go down the mountain to find out!"
