Chapter 813: Unexpected Gain
Order was restored quickly in Lizhou. Chen Futu found some time to give two drops of nutrient solution to the Jianmu and Bodhi trees. Sure enough, with them, the two trees grew very fast. The roots of the Jianmu tree quickly spread from Lizhou to other major regions, and new fruits appeared on the Bodhi tree, but it would still take some time.
Once everything had settled down, Chen Futu found a secluded spot and opened the top-secret document about the Human Emperor that the system had given him.
That was a scene of a great battle, though not as brutal as this one. But many cursed martial gods still appeared, and the Human Emperor did not die. He used some kind of secret technique to take a group of martial gods away from this continent from Antarctica.
"Therefore, I am not the reincarnation of the Human Emperor."
Chen Futu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he first saw Consort Pingxin, he had some hallucinations and always felt that he had some connection with the Human Emperor. Now he finally got a definite answer.
Furthermore, the image also shows the Martial God Technique that the Human Emperor hid in Lizhou, which is located within the Imperial Seal.
Chen Futu no longer needs his methods, but this matter can be told to Chen Changsheng that he has not yet broken through and has a similar temperament to the Human Emperor, making him suitable to receive that kind of inheritance.
"Does this mean we have to smash the Imperial Seal?" Chen Changsheng was dumbfounded when he heard the news.
Chen Futu said irritably, "Are you stupid? You are the emperor, and the Imperial Seal is a national treasure. If you want it, you can naturally get what's inside."
Chen Changsheng blushed, scratched his head, and activated the Imperial Seal in front of Chen Futu. Sure enough, a scroll of the Human Emperor's Law appeared inside. It was a few pages of golden book, which exuded a powerful divine aura.
"Father, this..."
Chen Changsheng handed over the golden book, but Chen Futu shook his head. "No need. Keep it for yourself. I will explore my own path. Also, don't forget to manage the country while you are cultivating."
"Remember this, son."
Chen Changsheng remembered his father's original intention in establishing the country. Although there was an element of being forced to rise up, it was ultimately for the sake of the people to live a good life. In the end, he gradually occupied the world and carried out reforms one after another, which made Lizhou prosperous and wealthy as it is today.
A grand banquet was held in the palace tonight, with all the civil and military officials and powerful figures from Lizhou in attendance.
This was the first gathering after the great battle, and everyone had a great time.
Chen Futu saw Lin Tian and Shi Ya together. Although Ling Xue didn't say anything, it was clear that she was a little disappointed, as if she really liked her senior brother.
As a master, Chen Futu couldn't interfere in his disciple's private life, so he could only go to Ling Xue after the banquet and try to comfort her.
Ling Xue said in a low voice, "Master, you don't need to say anything. I only respect Senior Brother, but I dare not have any improper thoughts."
"Since you've figured it out, I won't say any more. You all need to focus on your cultivation. I need to go out for a while."
"How long are you going to be gone?" Ling Xue was very surprised. It seemed that her master would be gone for a long time every time he went out.
Chen Futu smiled and said, "It won't be long. Once I've finished everything, I will return."
Chen Futu was heading to the Antarctic, where the Human Emperor and those Earth Vein Martial Gods had disappeared together, hoping to find some clues and see if he could find any traces.
Fu Shuang came along after hearing about this.
She remained as lazy as ever, and was very interested in Consort Pingxin.
Chen Futu naturally wouldn't reveal anything to outsiders, only saying that it was an elder.
"If we had known you had such a powerful elder, why would we have fought to the death?"
Fu Shuang's unspoken message was that they should have called for reinforcements much earlier, otherwise so many people wouldn't have died on the mainland.
Chen Futu said, "Well said, don't say it again next time."
"You rascal..." Fu Shuang pouted and stopped asking.
Chen Futu doesn't talk about grand principles. Although Empress Pingxin is powerful, she is not under the control of the system. Who knows if she might destroy this continent if she gets upset? If it weren't for Emperor Jue summoning the envoy from the upper realm, he wouldn't have risked sending him here.
Fortunately, the outcome was good. Although Consort Pingxin was unruly, as the ancestor of the transmigrators, she was quite considerate of her juniors.
A day later, Chen Futu and Fu Shuang arrived at the Antarctic region of the mainland.
The environment here is extremely harsh; the wind blades generated by the low temperature can easily cut through space, and the Human Emperor did indeed disappear here.
The two opened their eyes and searched for a long time, but found no trace.
Chen Futu felt that the space here was unstable, and the destructive fluctuations generated by the great battle might have unintentionally connected to some other realm. Searching for it now would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"No wonder the attacks on Lizhou and the southern part of the continent were so severe, and the ley line curse has also spread from the polar regions. It must be the curse mist left over from the war between the Human Emperors back then."
Fu Shuang disliked the harsh environment and wanted to go back.
Chen Futu searched around without success and had no choice but to leave. However, before the two of them could leave, they were blocked by a man and a woman.
The two were dressed in thin clothes and looked very young, but their cultivation was not low; they even had the cultivation of a quasi-emperor.
Chen Futu transmitted his voice to Fu Shuang, asking, "Are there humans living in Antarctica, or are they a reclusive family?"
"If they had lived in seclusion here, the fact that the previous great battle was not affected by the curse would have shown their profound strength."
During their conversation, the man eyed them warily and asked, "What brings you two here, fellow Daoists?"
Fu Shuang said, "Do you own this polar region? We can come and go as we please."
Hey, Chen Futu didn't expect her to have such a bad temper. She's a martial god, yet she's arguing with two little kids.
The young man said unhappily, "This is the location of the Moon Goddess Pavilion. I hope you two will leave immediately."
"Moon Goddess Pavilion!"
Chen Futu and Fu Shuang were shocked.
Good heavens, no wonder we didn't see any Moon Goddess Pavilion members during the great battle; they were hiding in this godforsaken place.
It should be noted that Liu Longyue received the inheritance of the Moon Goddess, and Bai Zhi followed Liu Longyue as her guard. The Moon Goddess Pavilion almost abandoned the two of them to fend for themselves, without offering any assistance from beginning to end.
Chen Futu therefore had no goodwill towards this force, and simply put on a stern face and sneered: "Who do we have here? It turns out to be the disciples and grand-disciples of the Moon God. You are unaware of the bloodshed outside?"
"What does this have to do with my clan? You all leave at once, or don't blame us for using force."
The young man spoke, exuding the aura of a quasi-emperor.
Fu Shuang raised her snow-white hand unhappily. "Kid, do you see what this is?"
"what?"
"Believe it or not, I'll slap you to death."
"you!"
Only then did the young man realize that the two were extraordinary, able to ignore the pressure of a quasi-emperor. So he adopted a fighting stance and shouted, "Who exactly are you? What is your purpose in coming to the Moon Goddess Pavilion?"
As luck would have it, just as Chen Futu and Fu Shuang were about to force their way into the Moon Goddess Pavilion, Liu Longyue and Bai Zhi returned, along with Chen Li.
The three were surprised to see this.
Chen Li darted to Chen Futu's side and muttered to himself, "Father, you wouldn't be so bored as to get involved with Senior Fu, would you?"
