Chapter 1819 A Visit Upside Down, Revealing One's True Feelings
After the court assembly, the entire Black Wind Mountain was mobilized to prepare for the conquest of the alien continent ten years later.
As for Xuanming, Jiaolong King, and Tianshu, the three demons went to the Ministry of Personnel and accompanied the Ministry's commander, Fang Ru, to the reserve camp to select soldiers for the legion.
Currently, the reserve camp of Black Wind Mountain has more than three million soldiers, all of whom are Ancestral Realm cultivators!
This is a department specially established by Fang Ru, and it is currently under the temporary management of Prince Chiming Yingyingguai.
Yingyingguai is now at the Saint Venerable Realm, and is still young, in the prime of his life. With him in charge of the reserve camp, all three million Ancestral Realm cultivators are completely obedient.
Mo Fan himself did not leave the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, because just now a demon came to report that cultivators from Upside-Down Mountain had come to visit, so he simply received them in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.
Soon, the cultivators from Upside-Down Mountain arrived. There were four of them, all of whom were familiar to Mo Fan.
The four cultivators are Huo Huang, Fang Yunxian, Fan Jiu, and Fang Yunxian's disciple Fang Ling'er.
More than five hundred years have passed, and these individuals have all broken through to the peak of the Saint Realm. Even Fang Yunxian's disciple has reached this level.
It is worth mentioning that the former female sword immortal has now become the first chief of the Upside-Down Mountain and a renowned sword master.
Mo Fan discovered that five hundred years had not left many traces on these old friends; they still looked the same as before, especially Huo Huang and Fang Yunxian, who were still as beautiful as they were back then.
However, Mo Fan couldn't help but glance at Fang Yunxian's apprentice, Fang Ling'er, a few more times.
This Fang Ling'er was the same little girl who chased after him with half a giant centipede in one hand and a sword in the other. Now she had grown into a graceful young woman, especially her full and high breasts, which almost burst her clothes. She could be considered the most dangerous weapon in this hall.
"Ahem...Your Majesty, Fairy Fang and the others have arrived."
Just then, the man in white coughed twice, finally drawing Mo Fan's attention back.
"Since you're here, please take a seat!"
Mo Fan waved his hand casually, and immediately some slender female demons brought tables to both sides of the hall, along with spiritual wine and fruits.
"Gentlemen, please forgive me for not greeting you sooner."
"Please take your seats and savor the spirit wine of my Myriad Demon Dynasty."
With a flick of his sleeve, Mo Fan produced a cup of spiritual wine and raised it to the four cultivators from afar.
"Your Majesty is too kind!"
Upon seeing this, Si Xiu first bowed respectfully to Mo Fan, then sat down behind the table and raised their wine cups to toast Mo Fan from afar.
Meanwhile, the four cultivators were also observing Mo Fan on the throne, but were surprised to find that they could not sense any of Mo Fan's presence at all. If they hadn't seen him there, they would have thought that there was no one there at all.
On the contrary, the longer they looked, the more they would discover that the void seemed to be distorted, as if it could swallow their vision.
This phenomenon made Si Xiu feel a chill in his heart, realizing that Mo Fan was probably much stronger now than he was five hundred years ago!
"We have heard that the Emperor has returned from the Nine Netherworlds, so we have come to pay our respects!"
"Back then, a sudden change occurred on the other continent. Those demonic villains opened the passage to the Nine Netherworld, and the entire Nine Provinces were exposed to danger."
If it weren't for the Emperor stepping forward and risking his life to go to the Nine Netherworlds, the Nine Provinces would probably have been devastated long ago!
Five hundred years have passed, and the Emperor has only just returned. What a hardship for him!
Bai Yunxian rose, first sighing with emotion, then bowing to Mo Fan and saying, "On behalf of all the people of the Nine Provinces, I thank the Emperor for his great righteousness!"
"Thank you for your righteousness, Your Majesty!!"
The three cultivators of the Fire Phoenix Sect also stood up and bowed respectfully to Mo Fan.
However, the three cultivators all looked at Mo Fan with different gazes.
"No need for such formalities, everyone!"
"I am the monarch of the Myriad Demons Dynasty. Now my Myriad Demons Dynasty governs the entire Nine Provinces, so this can be considered my duty."
When the land is in peril, I will not stand idly by.
On the contrary, it was you all who, to protect the people of the Nine Provinces, willingly went to that harsh, desolate land of another continent to guard the seal of the demon race for a hundred years—that is true righteousness!
Mo Fan stood up, bowed to the four cultivators, and said, "You have rendered meritorious service in protecting the Nine Provinces, but since you are cultivators from the Upside-Down Mountain, I cannot bestow any reward upon you."
However, I still have some primordial essence here. If you don't mind, I can help you reshape your physical bodies and break through the shackles of the Saint Realm.
"This...this is unacceptable!"
Fang Yunxian was tempted by his words, but still waved her hand and refused, saying, "Since its establishment in ancient times, the purpose of my Upside-Down Mountain has been to protect all living beings in the Nine Provinces. Therefore, it is only our duty to guard the seal of the Demon Clan. How can we accept any more benefits from Your Majesty?"
"Indeed, although our cultivation is weak, we must do our utmost, even at the cost of our lives, when it comes to matters concerning the lives of all living beings in the Nine Provinces!"
This has always been my responsibility and duty at Upside Down Mountain.
"You don't need to worry about it!" Fire Phoenix said with a smile.
"No, this belongs to you."
"To be honest, if it weren't for your help in guarding the seal of the other continent, I wouldn't have been able to go to other worlds to conquer the demons so confidently, and naturally I wouldn't have been able to collect so much Yuan Liquid."
Therefore, as early as five hundred years ago, I planned to rebuild your physical bodies, but the crisis of the Nine Netherworld Passage occurred at that time, so I did not have time to rebuild your physical bodies.”
Mo Fan smiled wryly, and seeing that Bai Yunxian seemed to have something else to say, he immediately said, "Listen to what I have to say."
With my cultivation level, I could have ascended to the upper realm long ago. The reason I am still stuck in this realm is not because I covet power, but because I made an agreement with the old abbot of your Upside-Down Mountain, Senior Gu Wuming.
As agreed, I will protect the Nine Provinces for a thousand years.
Calculating the time, there are still more than three hundred years until the appointed time.
Therefore, three hundred years from now, no matter what the situation is, I will go to the Upper Realm!
If you wish, I can take you with me then.
However, since you are cultivators from the Upside-Down Mountain, I estimate that you are unlikely to go to the Upper Realm, so I plan to improve your cultivation before I leave.
In this way, you will be better able to protect the Nine Provinces in the future!
Seeing that Mo Fan had revealed his true feelings, Fang Yunxian and the other two cultivators did not insist any further.
"Since His Majesty has said so, then we will not refuse any longer!"
Huo Huang chuckled and spoke, which was considered as agreeing on behalf of Fang Yunxian and the others.
"Very well, I will personally reconstruct your physical bodies in three days!"
Seeing that they had agreed, Mo Fan immediately smiled. What he had just said was indeed from the bottom of his heart.
He couldn't stay in Kyushu forever, since Kyushu could no longer meet his cultivation needs. If he wanted to make further progress on his cultivation path, he had to leave Kyushu and ascend to the upper realm.
Furthermore, he also needed to go to the Upper Realm to investigate the matter of the White Tiger Saint King, so he naturally couldn't delay.
Afterwards, Mo Fan had a long chat with the four of them before seeing them off.
During this time, Mo Fan wanted to ask Huo Huang several times whether she was the Huo Huang of the past, or the Feng Gu of yesteryear, or neither.
However, in front of so many people, he ultimately didn't ask the question.
