Sheng Fu

Chapter 742 Young People Can’t Stay Bedridden

Imperial capital.

The war was won, and the people of the imperial capital went into a frenzy. In recent days, businesses of all sizes have been decorated with lights and the morale of the human race is high.

But His Majesty the Human Emperor in the deep palace did not seem happy at all, and was even a little depressed.

This war did indeed shatter the fortune of the mountains and rivers of the Demon Realm, but the price paid by the human race was still very heavy. As many as 120,000 soldiers were killed in the battle.

There are many seriously injured people nowadays, and even if they survive, they will become disabled in the future.

The Demon Realm will not be able to launch large-scale battles for a long period of time, but the human race will also find it difficult to cope with large-scale battles in a short period of time.

What made the Emperor most upset was that the Demon Realm was originally a dead dog and rotten meat. After this battle, the Demon Realm was still a dead dog and rotten meat.

The cost of direct conquest is too heavy.

Moreover, even if the human race conquers the Demon Realm by force, it is unable to rule the mountains and rivers of the Demon Realm. Firstly, the military has been damaged, and secondly, the Demon Realm is a barbaric race, and the human race's civil governance is not suitable for use in the mountains and rivers of the Demon Realm, at least not in the short term.

For the Human Emperor, this was a victory that was neither enjoyable nor worthwhile to abandon, and also a battle that he could not afford to lose.

I just feel uncomfortable anyway.

The palace's Taoist temple was magnificent and golden, filled with the aura of crape myrtle and looked grand and prosperous.

The Human Emperor sat cross-legged with his right hand suspended in the air. Xu Canghai was taking the pulse of His Majesty the Human Emperor.

The expression on the face of this powerful man who is in charge of the Fortune Tower is erratic. The Netherworld karma and Ziwei true essence in his majesty's body are mixed together, entangled and backfired with each other. It can be said that it is like oil and flour, difficult to separate.

"Just say it straight." The Human Emperor said in a steady tone.

Xu Canghai looked troubled and said, "The only way to crack it is for your Majesty to further improve your Ziwei True Essence and forcibly refine the Netherworld Karma in your body."

"Or maybe there is a third great force that is neutralizing the situation."

Upon hearing this, the Human Emperor smiled inexplicably, then withdrew his right hand, clasped his hands together, and continued to meditate.

Ziwei Zhenyuan has taken a step further, which sounds reasonable.

But the Human Emperor has been staying at the peak of Wuji for many years. During these years, he has been trying to take his Ziwei true essence to a higher level. Only after taking a higher level can he get a glimpse of the legendary Wanduan realm.

At this level, let alone making further progress, even moving forward a little bit requires the blessing of the right time, place and people, or a sudden flash of inspiration at some point.

For some people, just to reach the Lingxiao realm, they have already used up all their luck in this life.

In the Wuji realm, making any progress is harder than ascending to heaven.

The reason why the Human Emperor calls Gu Yong "Sir" is not only because he admires Gu Yong's character from the bottom of his heart, but also because he admires Gu Yong's talent for cultivation. Mr. Gu Yong has relied on self-realization to reach the peak of the Wuji.

It’s a bit regrettable that I have never talked to Mr. Gu Yong about spiritual practice.

The Human Emperor knew very well that unless something catastrophic happened, it would be impossible for him to advance further in his realm.

That tiny bit of progress at a critical moment is like an eternal wall blocking the future.

"The third great power?" The Human Emperor suddenly asked.

Xu Canghai said: "Lord Yuwen's dragon clan imperial energy, His Majesty the Spiritual Emperor's all-spiritual essence, the Demon Lord's eternal essence, and the Divine Emperor's original essence."

The Human Emperor rolled his eyes at Xu Canghai and wanted to hit him.

But Xu Canghai had a serious expression on his face, because he was just stating the most objective facts.

Naturally, the God Emperor and the Demon Lord would not be so kind as to heal the Human Emperor's injuries. In fact, they both wished that the Human Emperor would just die.

Emperor Ling would naturally not take action against the Human Emperor.

They are called allies, but even brothers can be jealous of each other and dislike each other.

The Human Emperor was seriously injured, and from then on, all matters of alliance and sovereignty naturally shifted to the spirit race.

Furthermore, even if the Spiritual Emperor was willing to heal the Human Emperor, the Human Emperor was unwilling to do so. Who knew whether the Spiritual Emperor would do something with the Myriad Spiritual Essence to check and balance the Human Emperor at the critical moment? As a leader, the only person he could trust was himself.

As for Yu Wenjun, his cultivation is too shallow and his dragon clan's imperial aura is too weak to cure the injuries of His Majesty the Human Emperor.

But in the political arena, some things now require the reliance of Yuwen Jun.

The Emperor said, "Send Li Hongshan here."

Upon hearing this, Xu Canghai stood up, bowed slightly, and left.

The Emperor waited quietly here, muttering to himself: "What I can think of, the child should be able to think of as well."

Not long after, Li Hongshan arrived.

"What is your majesty's will?" Li Hongshan bowed and asked.

The Human Emperor asked, "I have heard a piece of gossip recently that Yu Wenjun suddenly had a telepathic connection and went into seclusion. But the situation is turbulent right now, why would he suddenly go into seclusion?"

"Even if he entered the Wuji realm overnight, it would be of no help to the current situation."

"There must be something unspeakable."

"Go to Henglong Mountain quickly and bring Yuwen Jun to see me."

Upon hearing this, Li Hongshan turned around and crossed the void without asking any more questions.

……

Outside the Hengchang Palace, Li Hongshan came alone. Inside the Hengchang Palace, Wu Mi and Zhong Yi walked out slowly.

When he saw the young man with the blue eyes, Li Hongshan realized why His Majesty was in a hurry to meet Yuwen Jun.

Wu Mi bowed to Li Hongshan and said, "Wu Mi greets the Imperial Master."

Li Hongshan returned the greeting, raised his head and looked directly into Wu Mi's eyes, and asked, "Your Highness, are you still in seclusion?"

Li Hongshan's eyes were heavy and somewhat irresistible. Wu Mi also realized in an instant that Li Hongshan really had something difficult to ask Yu Wenjun.

"Yes, he has been in good shape recently and may be able to enter the middle stage of Guiyuan." Wu Mi said.

Li Hongshan asked in a tone that would not brook refusal: "Can Your Highness be allowed to leave the confinement now?"

Wu Mi asked in return: "Is there an order?"

Li Hongshan nodded. Seeing this, Zhong Yi was about to turn around and leave, but Wu Mi said to Zhong Yi, "You are one of us. You can listen to the following conversation."

There are three people here, representing the Dragon Clan, the Human Clan, and the Spirit Clan. Unfortunately, no historian recorded this.

Wu Mi put one hand behind his back and said seriously, "He is injured and is recuperating in his hometown. I estimate that he will not be able to walk around in the short term, or even for a year or two."

Li Hongshan was surprised. As far as he knew, he and Jing Peiyao teamed up to kill the Lingxiao monster. Although he was injured, he was not injured to this extent. It must be other things that caused him to be injured.

"How serious can the injury be?" Li Hongshan asked.

Wu Mi said: "It can be as severe as it can be. It can only heal itself. No medicine will be of any use."

Li Hongshan bowed with both hands and said, "Wait here, maybe I will come back."

Wu Mi smiled softly, and Li Hongshan left.

In the palace dojo, the emperor sensed the surging of the void, but there was only one person's aura. Li Hongshan came back and reported: "Yu Wenjun is seriously injured, and any elixir is useless."

"He is now recovering in his hometown of Yuxi Town. I heard from Wu Mi that he won't be able to go out for a long time."

Hearing this, the Human Emperor said with a serious expression, "Young people can't just stay at home to recuperate. This is not what young people should be like."
