“You are also going to the beginning of time?” The pretty woman beside the hemp-clad Hedao suddenly asked.
Chu Man Ho said in a light voice, “That’s right, we are also going to Tai Chu.”
The pretty woman was looking at Kang Xiushan when she asked, but it was Chu Man Ho who answered.
Only after Chu Man He took the initiative to answer did that hemp-clothed Hedao then land his gaze on Chu Man He, and only then did he realise that Chu Man He’s cultivation level was even higher than his. In that case, there were at least two Hedao Saint Emperors among this group.
The inquiring pretty woman and the sepia-clothed Hedao Saint Emperor glanced at each other and did not continue speaking until the teleportation array was activated.
An extreme spatial transformation dizziness came over them, and the sepia-clothed Harmony Saint Emperor and the pretty woman realised that none of the people in this group had actually fallen into the dizziness.
Time and space continued to shift until the group had their feet on the ground and walked out of the teleportation formation.
“Welcome, fellow Daoists, to my Tai Chu Realm, I wonder if there is anything that a few of you need my help with?” The pretty woman suddenly became enthusiastic.
Although her mouth was talking, her eyes were fixed on Chu Man Ho and Kang Xiushan. In her opinion, among this group of people, either Chu Manhe was the leader or Kang Xiushan was the leader.
What she did not expect was that the one who took the initiative to speak after her was not Chu Man Ho or Kang Xiushan, but a young man with the lowest cultivation level.
“Thank you, I guess fellow Daoist should be the First Court Pillar of the Tai Chu Dao Court, Nora, right?” Ning Cheng said with a faint smile.
The pretty woman was none other than Nora, she and Xiao Qiandong had just returned from the Taiyi Realm because they had not reached an agreement with it.
“That’s right, I am Nora, how many of you are?” When Nora saw that Ning Cheng knew that she was the First Court Pillar and instead made a point of mentioning it, she knew that Ning Cheng and the others were most likely here for the Tai Yi Dao Court.
Ning Cheng cupped his fist and said, “My name is Ning Cheng and I come from the Tai Su Realm. Of course, I have come in disguise. I have come here for two things, one is to visit the Tai Chu Li Daoist Monarch, and another point is a personal matter.”
“Ning Cheng? You are the Daoist Monarch of the Tai Su Dao Court?” Nora finally understood and looked at Ning Cheng with some disbelief. She was just about to go look for Ning Cheng to collaborate with, but she had never expected Ning Cheng to come to the Tai Chu Realm. Could it be that Ning Cheng did not know that the Tai Yi Realm was dealing with him and that he dared to come to the Tai Chu Realm, could it be that he was not afraid that the Tai Chu Realm would make a move against him and take him down?
However, when Nora thought of Ning Cheng’s side, Chu Man Ho and the others, she secretly thought to herself that perhaps he really didn’t need to be afraid.
Ning Cheng smiled and said once again, “I am none other than Ning Cheng of the Tai Su Dao Court, I wonder if I could ask the Nora Court Pillar to pass on a message that I would like to pay a visit to Daoist Lord Li?”
Visiting Li Jiancheng was not something Ning Cheng had done on a whim, but rather he had had this intention for a long time. Of the Five Tai Tai Realms, the Tai Chu Realm was more dilapidated than the Tai Su Realm though. In fact, among the Five Tai Tai Realms, apart from the Tai Yi Realm, it was the Tai Chu Realm that was the strongest. The Tai Chu’s heritage was simply too deep and there were many capable people.
If Ning Cheng were to come to the Tai Chu Realm to look for Fang Qi who had snatched the Hengyang, it would probably be very difficult for him not to be known by the Tai Chu Dao Court. Ning Cheng simply took the opportunity of this search for the Hengyang Soil to pay a visit to Li Jiancheng. Even if he could not bring the Tai Primordial Realm together to deal with Tai Yi, he could at least stabilize the Tai Primordial Realm during the Great War, so that Tai Primordial would not be involved in the Great War.
The second one was naturally to ask for Li Jiancheng’s help in finding out where Fang Qi had come from. At this time, Fang Qi had probably not returned to the Tai Primordial Realm yet, so as long as he could find his followers, it would be possible to find Fang Qi. Ning Cheng believed that Li Jiancheng would not fall out with him in the Tai Su Realm over a piece of Hengyang. Hengyang was not a resting soil and was far less valuable than a resting soil.
“Of course you can, a few Daoists can come with us now to the Dao Court of Tai Su Sacred Dao City. Our Daoist monarch has always admired Daoist Ning greatly, and will surely be delighted to meet him here.” Nora fully understood and hurriedly said enthusiastically. After saying this, she directly sent out a message.
She was the one who was going to look for Ning Cheng, and now that Ning Cheng had appeared in the Tai Chu Realm, how could she not be overjoyed?
……
Whether Nora was telling the truth or not, Li Jiancheng’s welcome to Ning Cheng was indeed not a fake. Ning Cheng and the others had just arrived at the Tai Chu Sacred Dao City when Li Jiancheng brought a group of important figures from the Dao Court out of the city to greet them.
“I have long heard of Daoist Sovereign Ning’s great name, and I have long known that Daoist Sovereign Ning is a supreme genius that has rarely been seen in billions of years. Today, Li Jiancheng is overjoyed to meet Daoist Ning in Tai Chu.” Li Jiancheng’s young face was overflowing with sincere enthusiasm as he greeted Ning Cheng from afar.
Ning Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and said equally politely, “The Tai Chu Realm is far more damaged than my Tai Su Realm, Daoist Friend Li has managed to make the Tai Chu Realm a powerful place second only to Tai Yi, Ning Cheng really admires it.”
The crowd was polite, Ning Cheng briefly introduced Chu Man Ho and the others, and Li Jiancheng briefly introduced those who had come with him, before warmly greeting the crowd into the Great Hall of Tai Primordial Guests.
Beautiful wine and divine spirit fruits were served up in a stream, and Li Jiancheng personally greeted Ning Cheng and the others, showing that he was indeed very concerned about Ning Cheng’s arrival.
To be honest, Ning Cheng had not expected that Li Jiancheng would be so polite to him. He had even prepared himself for Li Jiancheng to curry favour with the Taiyi Realm and give him some face. Unexpectedly, none of this had occurred, instead, the enthusiasm of the Tai Yi Daoist Realm made him a little uncomfortable.
It was definitely not that Li Jiancheng knew that he was very strong this time around; there were at least two strong Hedao practitioners right behind Li Jiancheng. According to Li Jiancheng’s introduction, the septuagenarian who had come with them earlier was called Xiao Qian Dong. The other Hedao powerhouse who had been sitting next to Li Jiancheng was called Timothy. With Ning Cheng’s vision, Timothy was afraid that he would be that much stronger than Kang Xiushan.
Before three rounds of wine had passed, Li Jiancheng raised his cup of wine and said to Ning Cheng from afar, “It should be me who should go to the Tai Su Realm to congratulate the establishment of the Tai Su Dao Court and congratulate Daoist Fellow Ning on becoming a Daoist Monarch, but now that Daoist Fellow Ning has taken the initiative to come to my Tai Chu Realm, I am truly ashamed, so this cup of wine counts as my disrespect.”
After saying this, Li Jiancheng lifted his wine cup and drank it down in one go, after drinking up the wine in his cup, Li Jiancheng then continued, “Whatever matters Brother Ning has in mind when he comes to my Tai Chou Realm, as long as my Tai Chou Realm is able to do it, I, Li Jiancheng, will not resist.”
Directly changing Daoist Monarch to Brother Ning, he invariably drew closer the relationship with Ning Cheng.
Such a cautious promise, on the contrary, caused Ning Cheng to mutter even more in his heart, and he also raised his wine cup and drank it down before saying, “Thank you, Brother Li, for your generosity and politeness, this time when I came to Tai Chou Realm, I really need Brother Li’s help. I guess Brother Li should know about the incident where the Taiyi Realm forced the Dao Court Army to be sent out on account of its strength being stronger than my Tai Su Realm, right?”
Li Jiancheng nodded, his face somewhat disdainful as he said, “Taiyi Realm’s Yin Xingwen is really shameless, the Five Tai Su Realms were one in the same breath in the ancient times. Now he wants to use his army against the Tai Su Daoist Court for his own selfish desires. My Tai Chu Realm is extremely unhappy about this, and my Tai Chu Realm’s Court Protector Xiao Qiandong and First Court Pillar Nora went to the Tai Yi Realm to persuade them about this matter, but that Yin Xingwen is a tortoise eating a weight, and has already set his mind on it. However, Fellow Daoist Ning can rest assured that no matter what, my Tai Chou Realm will not sit back and watch the Tai Yi Realm smear the Tai Su Realm.”
Ning Cheng laughed in his heart, if you, Li Jiancheng, had such good intentions, you would have gone to my Tai Su Realm long ago, why did you wait until I came here today? He didn’t point it out either, anyone would say this kind of crap. If one wanted the Tai Chou Realm to really take sides and even help the Tai Su Realm speak, then one needed to show actual benefits.
“Thank you, Brother Li, for your fairness. The first thing I came here for, although not directly related to the Tai Yi Realm, is that I want to form an alliance with the Tai Chu Realm. So that the horns can look at each other, so that those who are unscrupulous cannot do whatever they want with impunity.” Ning Cheng said cautiously with a clasp of his fist.
Li Jiancheng nodded, “I am having the same thoughts as Brother Ning, from today onwards, my Tai Primordial Realm is an ally of the Tai Su Realm. Even if I cannot stop the Taiyi Realm from moving its army against the Tai Su Realm, I must still advise the Taiyi Realm not to go too far.”
Ning Cheng became more and more puzzled in his heart, he could not figure out why Li Jiancheng was speaking so cautiously, as if he really wanted to ally with the Tai Su Realm. Could it be that he had misunderstood him?
Not waiting for Ning Cheng to clear up the doubts in his heart, Knight Kin Shing said once again, “Brother Ning, I actually have a matter that I would like to ask for Brother Ning’s help.”
Hearing these words, Ning Cheng was relieved instead, that was the right thing to say. He would only feel odd if there was nothing for him to help with.
“Please say it, Brother Knight, Ning Cheng will also definitely not refuse as long as he can help.” Ning Cheng said in the same tone as Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng said with an ecstatic expression on his face, “I heard that the extremely strong boundary protection formation in the Tai Su Realm was set up by Brother Ning himself?”
Ning Cheng understood, so he was looking for him to set up the formation. I dare not say anything else, but he could really do something like setting up a formation without offending anyone.
“Brother Li has overpraised me, although I did not set up the Great Boundary Protection Formation of the Tai Su Realm alone, it was set up under my leadership.” Ning Cheng said honestly, his level of formation dao was originally the highest achievement, there was no need to conceal it.
Li Jiancheng slapped his palm, “My Tai Chu Dan Association Master Peng Ang said that Brother Ning was a supreme genius with unparalleled talent, and now it seems to be true. I am thinking of setting up a teleportation array, but this one is a little difficult. My Tai Chu Realm does not have many top formation powerhouses, and the Tai Yi Realm and I are at odds because of the Tai Su Realm. Therefore, I have the audacity to ask Daoist Friend Ning to help out.”
Ning Cheng nodded, “There is no problem with that, I wonder where this teleportation array goes from? What kind of a teleportation formation is it?”
Li Jiancheng stood up, “Brother Ning, this teleportation array spans a bit far, it is estimated to span across even more than one realm. As for the location, I haven’t decided on it yet.”
“Spanning more than one realm?” Ning Cheng immediately frowned, and then said apologetically, “Brother Knight, if it is to span across a realm, I am afraid that I would not be able to set up this kind of teleportation array. Even if Brother Knight were to ask for more help, my abilities would still be limited.”
When he said this, Ning Cheng thought of Nian Yan, to set up a trans-dimensional teleportation array, perhaps a formation genius like Nian Yan could do it. As for him, he was still far from being able to do it.
