Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Human Emperor of Jiang, Come to Fight!

Translator: 549690339

After the Red Dust Fairy secluded herself in the Pure Land of Red Dust, she was no longer seen by people. But her appearance was recorded by a painter, and her portraits were also fought over by many people.

In the end, under the proposal of knowledgeable individuals, all portraits of the Red Dust Fairy were destroyed. Nowadays, probably only the treasury of Pure Land of Red Dust would contain portraits of the founding master.

Although Jiang Li admired the beauty of the Red Dust Fairy, he did not lose his composure. This couldn’t simply be explained by his deep cultivation, and he didn’t fully understand the reason himself.

“Being an outsider, it’s inappropriate for me to observe the remnants of your late ancestor. I suggest both of you go to the tomb to check if her immortal body is still there.”

“However, from the moment you revived the immortal tree, you became a benefactor of our Pure Land of Red Dust. How can a benefactor be considered an outsider?”

Unable to refute the Saintess Pure Heart, Jiang Li arrived at the place where the Immortal’s body was kept.

The burial chamber of the Red Dust Fairy was very simple, without any decoration. The empty room only contained a crystal as tall as a person in the center.

The crystal was empty, the Immortal was no longer there.

“In order to prevent her body from being taken away, the founding master left a seal on the crystal that only she could release. She surely resurrected and left of her own accord!” Saintess Pure Heart quickly made a judgement. “Right now, we don’t know the state of the founding master, whether she fully regained her memory or is just acting on instinct.”

“Indeed, the woman in the Golden House is your founding master!” Though he had his suspicions, Jiang Li was still slightly surprised to see an actual resurrection before his eyes.

“Pure Heart, you and Jiang the Human Emperor should go and check the situation at the Dream River Dynasty right away!” The Daoist nun Qingyu immediately spoke up. She knew this was what Saintess Pure Heart was thinking, but she couldn’t always let Saintess Pure Heart make decisions, otherwise, where would her own authority as head of the sect stand?

…

The Dream River Dynasty is adjacent to the Pure Land of Red Dust, hence it was the Dream River Emperor who found the Fairy when she descended from her mountain dwelling.

The two of them soon saw a woman in a red dress sleeping in the Golden House.

“It’s really the Fairy of Red Dust!”

Upon meeting, Saintess Pure Heart immediately felt a blood-tied sense of intimacy with the woman in the red dress. Few could resist the charm of the Red Dust Fairy.

There are many beautiful women in the Pure Land of Red Dust, all ageless. This was due to two sources of disciples.

Firstly, the teaching master would travel and recruit women they liked. Secondly, there was an immortal peach tree in the Pure Land of Red Dust. Eating the peaches could impregnate women and the newborn babies would naturally become disciples of the Pure Land of Red Dust.

The Red Dust Fairy had consumed a peach.

Saintess Pure Heart naturally belonged to the latter category.

“The beauty of the founding master is truly beyond comparison for us ordinary beings.”

Although Saintess Pure Heart was confident in her own beauty, she didn’t arrogantly think she could match the unparalleled Red Dust Fairy.

At most, she considered herself a beauty that appeared only once every five thousand years.

“But why does the founding master keep sleeping? When will she wake up?”

“Perhaps Emperor Dream River knows the answer.”

…

“Here’s what happened. This woman is the founding master of Pure Land of Red Dust. It’s not known whether she resurrected from death or whether her body birthed a new spirit. She’s in a constant sleep now, probably not yet used to the transition from death to life. Do you know how to wake her up?”

Although there isn’t a recorded instance of resurrection in Kyushu, there are records left by immortals about such situations. There could be two cases for resurrection, either the soul escapes the Underworld to return or the original soul disappears and the body generates a new consciousness.

However, the latter isn’t resurrection in the true sense, it’s more like a new birth.

Emperor Dream River and others were a bit slow on the uptake, and it took them a while to fully comprehend Jiang Li’s explanation.

“Jiang the Human Emperor, you joke. Since bringing her to the Golden House, even touching her has felt like a desecration, dare I try to wake her up? Sometimes she wakes once several months passed, other times she wakes after just a few days. I can’t discern any pattern.”

Jiang Li nodded. Emperor Dream River’s response was as expected, so he said, “The matter of the Red Dust Fairy is of great importance. Keeping her here will only cause trouble. Moreover, she is the founding master of the Pure Land of Red Dust. After discussing with Saintess Pure Heart, both sentimentally and reasonably, we should return her to Pure Land of Red Dust. What do you think?”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Dream River immediately objected: “Of course not! The Red Dust Fairy has been sleeping here for three years. She is used to it here. You cannot take her away!”

Even though he knew the Red Dust Fairy had a distinguished status and an astonishing background, he was not willing to let such a beauty be taken away right before his eyes.

Because once she leaves, he might never see her again.

“I understand your rules. When you can’t reach a decision, the strongest fist rules and the weak suffer. So be it, I, Emperor Dream River, will have a few bouts with you.” Jiang Li did not expect these two monarchs to be reasonable. Wasn’t a fight the most straightforward thing?

“Then, I beg your pardon!” Emperor Dream River said in a grave voice, full of strength.

“Count me in!” Emperor Wei also stepped forward, standing shoulder to shoulder with Emperor Dream River in a show of strength. He didn’t want Jiang Li to take the Red Dust Fairy either.

How does it matter if she is the founding master of the Pure Land of Red Dust? It is just one of the six great sects. Their two great dynasties also bore immortals. Their foundation is not worse than that of the Pure Land of Red Dust. Are they, as monarchs, not worthy of the Red Dust Fairy?

They will not accept this!

The Human Emperor, so what? We are all emperors. Your status is not higher than ours. You say you will take her away, and you just take her?

So what if the Imperial Palace is revered by all of Kyushu? We, the two great dynasties, will not honor that this time!

Upon seeing this, Zhang Konghu promptly withdrew to a safe distance, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire. Unlike these two inflated idiots, he had seen Jiang Li in action before. Jiang Li had butchered the Heavenly Demons that they had barely killed at the cost of heavy casualties, like chopping vegetables.

The power of the Mahayana realm is truly unfathomable!

Emperor Dream River wore a luxurious royal robe, a Pingtian crown on his head, and held the Star Han Gold Rod in his hand. He pointed to the sky, and the galaxies hidden by the sunlight reappeared, tiny stars full of endless stellar power converged on the Star Han Gold Rod. Emperor Dream River’s aura grew increasingly strong, like an emperor holding a galaxy.

The national destiny of the Dream River Dynasty, stars brilliant!

Emperor Dream River released his repression on the national destiny of the Great Wei Dynasty, allowing the Wei’s national destiny to come here too.

Emperor Wei did not show any signs of weakness; he wore a royal robe decorated with a pattern of turtles and snakes and held the Imperial Jade Seal in his hand. The eight seal-script characters “received the mandate of Heaven, long live, long, long live” shone brightly. They gradually distorted and transformed into a Xuanwu pattern while North Ren Water, heavy as mountains, circled Emperor Wei, making him seem like a great ancient deity in command of the skies.

The national destiny of the Great Wei Dynasty, Water God Xuanwu!

“Jiang the Human Emperor, come and fight!”

Both monarchs attacked in unison. At this point, they were clear-headed and used every method to arm themselves. They were much stronger than when they fought Zhang Konghu!

Three breaths later.

Emperor Dream River, on the brink of death, screamed, “Imperial physician… I need the imperial physician…”
