Eight Supreme Beings on the Verge of Conflict!
All I Want is to Live a Low-Profile Life as a Daoist_3 “Gentlemen, please return,” said the White Emperor, his face expressionless.
Empress Yuanchu, Supreme Leader of Qin Family, the master of Western Sky Palace, and the other five supreme beings glanced at the White Emperor and then at the five immortal weapons above his head, sighing inwardly.
They had thought about taking the opportunity to kill the White Emperor, but none made a move.
...
The reason was the lack of unity; if only a part of them acted, the others might interfere, needlessly offending the White Emperor to death.
Not all of them wished to see the White Emperor revived only to die again.
Supreme beings like Emperor Tianji and the Sun Emperor preferred the White Emperor alive to continue ruling over White Emperor City, so the Wuxian Palace would not fall into other supreme beings’ hands, and the gap between them would not be insurmountable.
With Chengsheng Mountain already reigning supreme over them, none wished to be dominated by another, especially a rival they knew well.
Following this, the eight supreme beings went their separate ways.
Some, like the Sun Emperor, Emperor Tianji, and the Supreme Leader of Jiang Family, even exchanged some pleasantries before leaving, while Empress Yuanchu and Empress Yuanchu scoffed and departed directly, the Supreme Leader of Qin Family leaving most decisively.
“Congratulations to Brother White on your rebirth.
I hope such a tragedy does not occur again,” said one of them politely.
“White Emperor, we came to assist you.
Why do you greet us with such a cold face?
If you seek vengeance, go find Han Li,” another remarked.
With a tone neither salty nor bland, the master of Western Sky Palace and the Butian Sect Master left unwillingly after a few sarcastic comments.
Throughout it all, the White Emperor remained expressionless, not uttering a word even as he faced the supreme beings’ ridicule.
After all the supreme beings had left, the White Emperor looked at the wreckage that was Taibai Immortal Realm, his eyes blazing with a fury that could destroy worlds, yet he still said nothing.
The close call was too much; he had nearly died in his own sanctuary.
Having obtained the core piece of the Jade Talisman of Creation and being on the verge of acquiring another Piece of Natural Jade Symbol, as well as the body of Empress Qin Shiyin, the White Emperor had been overly confident, assured he could easily manipulate Qin Shiyin and had become a bit arrogant.
He had never expected that Qin Shiyin would collude with his nemesis, Han Li, especially since Qin Shiyin did not previously know Han Li.
And Han Li had actually agreed, truly helping Qin Shiyin against him.
Was he not afraid of an ambush?
The White Emperor could not understand this, and even less so why Qin Shiyin would choose Han Li over him.
What did he lack compared to Han Li?
She would rather be with a stranger than let him have her.
In just a few decades, Zimei had betrayed him, Empress Yuanchu looked down on him, and now Qin Shiyin had also betrayed him.
His dignity and reputation had been damaged time and time again.
To the White Emperor, this was an intolerable humiliation.
Yet, the White Emperor did not shout or wail; all his frustration, rage, and resentment were deeply buried in the deepest recesses of his heart.
He had been thwarted by Han Li once again, a severe blow to the White Emperor.
But, every setback is a setup for a comeback!
Previously, he had not been meticulous enough in practicing the Tao of survival, leading to such a disaster.
This bloody lesson was an awakening for the White Emperor.
He decided, from this day forward, to be a low-profile practitioner of the Tao of survival.
In everything he did, he would be cautious and make sure he was completely confident before acting.
He could not afford to repeat past mistakes; he no longer had the capital for a comeback.
As long as he could endure, there would always be a chance for revenge in the future.
He set a small goal for himself: survive for ten thousand years.
If that wasn’t enough, then a hundred thousand years, a million years, ten million years…
During this time, he would quietly and inconspicuously search for clues to True Immortal weapons, slowly accumulating his foundation.
Even if Han Li wanted to kill him again, he would not dare to do so openly without incurring the wrath of all supreme beings and being jointly suppressed by them.
Even if Han Li became strong enough to defy all supreme beings, unless he had Golden Immortal Battle Power and Golden Immortal weapons, he would not break the taboos of Yuankun Domain.
Like today, Han Li did not dare to kill him and could only snatch what he wanted and flee.
What the White Emperor did not know was that while he planned to endure for millions of years before dealing with Han Li, Han Li had no intention of giving him that much time.
According to Han Li’s estimates, in just another thirty years, and if all went well, within twenty or even ten years, he would have the power to be invincible in Yuankun Domain.
Then the time for reckoning would come.
For now, he was merely letting the White Emperor live a little longer.
Just as the White Emperor had suddenly realized his mistakes and decided to quietly practice the Tao of survival, the cultivators of White Emperor City finally arrived.
Upon entering Taibai Immortal Realm, the faces of all cultivators turned pale: Taibai Immortal Realm was in a state of disorder, almost stripped bare.
Had thieves looted the place clean?
When they saw the White Emperor at the center along with the five immortal weapons, the multitude of cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.
It was a relief that the White Emperor was alive; otherwise, White Emperor City would have truly fallen.
“Greetings to Your Majesty, the White Emperor!”
“Your Majesty, the White Emperor, what has happened?”
“Did Han Li come knocking at our door?”
The powerhouses of White Emperor City asked noisily, feeling quite uneasy.
Taibai Immortal Realm had already been plundered once by the five supreme beings, with heavy losses incurred.
Now Han Li had ransacked it again, nearly emptying their foundation.
Did they still have resources for cultivation in the future?
The many cultivators asked a few questions, then fell silent.
Perhaps it would have been better if the White Emperor had died.
This way, the inheritance of White Emperor City could be divided, and they could choose to join other powerful forces, avoiding the current predicament.
But with the White Emperor still alive, controlling immortal weapons of both the Heavenly Immortal and True Immortal caliber, no one dared openly rebel.
The White Emperor’s gaze swept over the many cultivators, fully aware of their thoughts, yet he said nothing; times had changed.
Taking a deep breath, he said firmly, “My friends, only we are left in White Emperor City.
I hope you will all work together with me.
With unity, we can rise again.”
