Chapter 187 - The Greatest Support!

Chapter 187 The Greatest Support!

The Immortal Gods retreated. The mortal world was peaceful!

For a time, the world was filled with laughter. The Jade Pure Sacred Sect was even more joyous and lively.

Han Jue chatted with his disciples for a while before returning to the cave abode.

He had benefited greatly from this battle.

[Divine General’s favorability towards you has increased. Current favorability: 3 stars] (Wen Quxing’s hatred towards you has decreased. Current Hatred Points: 1 star]

[Di Taibai has a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 2 stars]

[Thunder God has a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 2 stars]

[Shu Jinxing has a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 1 star]

[Marshal Shen Peng has a favorable impression of you. Current favorability: 1 star]

A series of notifications appeared in front of Han Jue. Most of them were favorable impressions.

The immortals weren’t stupid. Han Jue’s performance was enough for him to become the next Divine General, so they naturally wanted to rope him in.

Of course, some immortals were secretly jealous. However, they didn’t expect Han Jue to be able to see their favor and hatred.

Han Jue stabilized his state of mind.

Today’s battle made him realize his shortcomings.

Previously, he had killed those above his realm instantly. Now, he needed some time to fight them.

Although Long Shan was also not simple and was a genius of the Heavenly Court, it still made Han Jue uneasy.

No!

I have to increase my strength.

The higher the cultivation realm, the smaller the difference between those of the same cultivation realm. Han Jue didn’t want to be unable to defeat enemies of the same cultivation realm in the future.

Thinking of this, Han Jue perked up.

He had to work harder!

Time passed. Ten years passed after the Heavenly Troops left.

Peace returned to the mortal world. The fiendish cultivators were almost extinct. Previously, the devils had caused the Heavenly Court to clean up the mortal world, causing the righteous path and the demons to hate the devils. The fiends were also afraid of the immortals from the Upper World. Therefore, the fiendish cultivators had repented one after another.

The Jade Pure Sacred Sect knew that it was Han Jue who fought against the Immortal Gods, causing this matter to spread throughout the world. Portraits and statues of him were everywhere. Of course, the drawing was not accurate. The image of the statue was also very different from Han Jue’s.

For ten years, the Immortal Gods did not descend into the mortal world again.

Han Jue also cultivated in peace.

On this day.

Ji Xianshen came to visit.

The two of them met in the forest.

“You want to ascend?” Han Jue asked in surprise.

Ji Xianshen nodded. “The Immortal God Calamity has passed. There’s no need for me to stay in the mortal world anymore. Besides, I’m different from you. I don’t have the means to stay in the mortal world. I don’t want to acknowledge you as my master.”

Han Jue remained silent.

Ji Xianshen asked, “When will you ascend?”

Han Jue replied, “We’ll see.”

He would be a soldier once he entered the Heavenly Court. How troublesome.

Ji Xianshen snorted. “Then, I’ll go to the Heavenly Court first and look after you in the future.”

He immediately regretted it after saying that.

The current Han Jue was already so strong that even if he ascended, he might not be able to surpass him.

No!

I can’t think like that!’

I’ll surpass him sooner or later!

I was born to be the strongest!

Ji Xianshen’s gaze was firm.

Han Jue smiled and said, “Then, I wish you a bright future.”

Ji Xianshen’s mood improved. He asked, “When will Fang Liang ascend?”

“Depends.”

“Mm.”

The two of them fell silent.

Finally, Ji Xianshen left.

Han Jue was about to turn around and leave when he bumped into someone.

The Heavenly Emperor!

Han Jue retreated in fear.

He had always remembered the image of the Heavenly Emperor. After all, he was a big shot.

The Heavenly Emperor looked as tall as him. He wore a white robe and was not as domineering as he looked. He also had a scholarly aura.

Han Jue took a deep breath and calmed down.

The Heavenly Emperor had a 3-star favorability towards him. He shouldn’t harm him.

The Heavenly Emperor smiled and said, “Han Jue, when I asked Shan’er to deal with you, I wanted him to go all out and fight you with the determination to kill.”

Han Jue was silent and looked at him quietly.

“It wasn’t that I wanted him to kill you. I just wanted to see your potential. You didn’t let me down.” The Heavenly Emperor’s smile was very kind and did not give off any pressure.

Han Jue asked in surprise, “You wanted me to join you from the start?”

The Heavenly Emperor placed his hands behind his back and smiled. “You’re not simple. You don’t cultivate the Grand Unity Dao, but you can attract many people with great providence. Even the jinx of my Heavenly Court has acknowledged you as his master. Perhaps you have a destiny that even I can’t see through.”

Han Jue was secretly shocked.

On second thought, it made sense.

What kind of existence was the Heavenly Emperor? How could he not see through Su Qi’s foundation?

“Are you afraid of trouble and don’t want to enter the Heavenly Court? Is that why you’re stalling?”

“How can that be?”

“I can see very little karma in your life. You have interacted with fewer people than mortals who have lived an entire lifetime. I was curious and deduced the first half of your life. I didn’t expect you to be a freak who had been cultivating since you were young.”

A freak?

Han Jue felt humiliated.

The Heavenly Emperor smiled. “If you don’t want to enter the Heavenly Court and get involved in trouble, that’s fine.”

Han Jue was stunned. The Heavenly Emperor was letting him go?

“I’ll let you replace Chi Yunxian and become an immortal official in this mortal world. How about that? As for Chi Yunxian, I know that you have a good relationship with him. He will be promoted. No immortals will disturb you usually. In terms of treatment, I’ll let you enjoy cultivation resources like my son, Shan’er. When you become stronger, you can become the second Divine General of the Heavenly Court.”

Replacing Chi Yunxian?

Han Jue was tempted.

The Heavenly Emperor continued, “Normally, you don’t have to go to the Numinous Palace to attend our court meetings. I will send someone to find you if necessary. If you have any requests, you can ask him for help. After all, I’m the Heavenly Emperor. I can’t always be around you.”

Understanding what he meant, Han Jue asked carefully, “Are you trying to conceal me?”

This treatment was too good, and it also suited Han Jue’s intentions.

But from another point of view, it was equivalent to depriving him of authority and fame.

The Heavenly Emperor said calmly, “The Heavenly Court is deep and complicated. I want you to be mine and not the Heavenly Court’s. Do you agree?”

Han Jue wasn’t stupid. This was a matter of choosing sides.

If he refused, he would be dead.

Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor was very sincere and didn’t beat around the bush. It suited Han Jue’s taste.

Being with the Heavenly Emperor shouldn’t be bad.

Han Jue said, “Of course. To be honest, I don’t dare to ascend because I don’t have a backer in the Upper World. I still have many enemies.”

The Heavenly Emperor smiled faintly. “You killed the people they planted in the mortal world, right?”

“From now on, I’m your greatest backer. The Vermilion Bird Clan and the Dragon Immortal Island will no longer make things difficult for you. Of course, you can’t cause trouble unless others provoke you. In addition, don’t spread this conversation and don’t tell Chi Yunxian.”

The mighty leader of the Heavenly Court still had to keep it a secret. The dangers within the Court were truly unfathomable.

Han Jue nodded. “Don’t worry. You should have already observed my character from the first half of my life.”

(The Heavenly Emperor’s favorability towards you has increased. Current favorability: 4 stars]

The Heavenly Emperor raised his right hand, and a scroll appeared in his palm. “This is the Sword Dao Inheritance of the Heavenly Court. You should like it.”

Han Jue caught the scroll and was about to speak when he looked up. The Heavenly Emperor had already disappeared.

As expected of the Immeasurable Emperor, he really came and went without a trace!

Han Jue opened the scroll and saw three words.

Heavenly Sword Dao!
