519 Organizing the Laws of the Great Dao (3)
In the Great Yan Dynasty, situated in the eastern part of this world, Lin Feng felt that if he had the opportunity, he would like to go and see it.
He didn’t know that above the capital city of the Great Yan Dynasty at this moment, a carriage was suspended in the void. In front of the carriage, four Qilins were pulling it, exuding an imposing aura.
He didn’t know that above the capital city of the Great Flame Dynasty at this moment, a carriage was suspended in the void. In front of the carriage, four qilins were pulling it, exuding an imposing aura.
Above the carriage, Landry looked down at the 64 cities arranged in a special pattern below, his eyes filled with excitement.
He even seemed to spot a cauldron in one of those cities!
Then, he looked at a young man in red robes standing in the void ahead and greeted with a bow, “Greetings, Fellow Daoist Flame Emperor!
“Or should I call you the Human Emperor?”
The red-robed young man was none other than the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Flame Emperor, Jiang Shennong!
However, Landry seemed to be very certain that the person opposite him was not only the Flame Emperor, but also the Human Emperor, Shennong!
Emperor Jiang chuckled lightly and said, “I suppose Daoist must be the ancient deity, Landry, who delves into the secrets of heaven and humanity?”
He neither denied nor confirmed it. Instead, he posed a question to Landry.
Landry nodded and openly admitted, “Emperor, rest assured. Unlike other deities, I am different. I know that you hold little favor for the divine clans, but I didn’t participate in the conflict back then.
“I’ve come now only to appreciate the subtleties of ‘Continuous Mountain Yi.’ Once I’ve seen it, I’ll leave.”
In his words, there was a hint of wariness towards the Flame Emperor.
It’s worth noting that Landry was one of the ancient high deities, governing the rules of time and life. Yet, he seemed afraid that the Flame Emperor might drive him away?
The Flame Emperor smiled. “No worries. I’ve long heard that you are an erudite scholar. It’s a pity our paths didn’t cross at a more opportune time. Now that we’ve chanced upon each other, why not engage in a Dao discussion?”
Landry’s eyes brightened, “A discussion? Well put. Let’s discuss the Dao of the world!
“Then I’ll accept it respectfully.”
With that, Landry bowed and sat cross-legged on the carriage, facing the Flame Emperor.
The Flame Emperor was quite gracious, seating himself directly in the void, commencing a discourse with Landry.
Di Kang and the three Qilin gods listened nearby, utterly perplexed, unable to grasp any of it.
Nevertheless, Di Kang knew there was a grand opportunity here, so even though he couldn’t understand, he diligently committed their conversation to memory.
The three Qilin Gods shared a similar intention, but they found that if they tried to memorize the words, their inner worlds would reject them
It was as if they were incompatible.
They knew that this was because their Great Dao laws had already been fixed.
They knew this was due to their fixed Great Dao rules. If they wanted to remember those contents, they’d have to abandon their current paths and fall below the divine level.
This was a drawback of the beast race—their innate talents were predetermined. Once their Great Dao was set, it was difficult to diverge onto a new one.
So, lacking the determination to take that path, they ignored the incomprehensible discourse. They couldn’t afford to fall and lose their divine status again, not to mention their uncertainty about regaining it.
However, they were somewhat pleased to see Di Kang by their side, able to remember those things.
Perhaps, could a genius arise among the Qilin clan in the future?
Di Kang had no clue. Back when he had poor innate talents, he would have laughed if someone suggested he would be considered a genius by the ancestral gods.
If he knew, he might jokingly say that all the benefits came from pulling the carriage.
The discourse between Landry and the Flame Emperor remained hidden from others.
On Lin Feng’s side, he had also read quite a few books. While some of the formation texts weren’t particularly useful, they were all new knowledge. Reading them helped him discover some interesting points.
At this moment, Du Jinlong and Little Black had returned.
“Lin Feng, guess what I found out? That Blood Slaughter God, didn’t he tail you at the South Sea crossing before? I heard he got beaten up and left in a sorry state.” Little Black smiled as soon as he returned.
Lin Feng reminded, “Don’t call me by my real name. Remember to call me Young Master or Feng Lin.”
“Got it, got it.” Little Black waved his hand and said.
Only then Lin Feng inquired, “What happened to the Blood Slaughter God?”
Little Black was about to explain, but a servant from the Nie family outside the study interrupted, “Young Master Feng, the banquet is ready.The City Lord invites you to the banquet.”
Little Black immediately grew excited. Compared to eating and bragging, he placed the latter on the backburner. He rushed out excitedly.
He had to taste the delicacies of this world. Although he had already eaten quite a bit with Du Jinlong earlier, how much was that?
Lin Feng could only smile wryly. Then, after gathering the others, he said to Du Jinlong, “Old Du, you can talk as we walk.”
Since it wasn’t appropriate to call Du Jinlong ‘Senior’ anymore, Lin Feng simply addressed Du Jinlong and Lu Jinlong as ‘Old Du’ and ‘Old Lu.’
Du Jinlong smiled and began to explain as they walked.
Meanwhile, in the City Lord’s Manor, the patriarchs of the major families of Danyang City had arrived. They were all very curious about the descendant of the Imperial Feng family.
