Here.

Inside the room.

When the Luck Jade Seal could no longer draw upon the national luck, after a while, time acceleration finally stopped.

“Hu~”

“The Qi Luck Controlling Dragon Technique is really extraordinary. Just in such a short time, the power of my soul has grown a lot.”

A glimmer of surprise flickered in Xuanqing’s eyes.

Then,

He realized that something was wrong. He noticed that the Luck Jade Seal, floating in the air, had faded in color and its aura was not as thriving as it had been in the beginning.

“Huh… could it be…?”

Xuanqing’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he had thought of something.

The next moment.

Whoosh!

Accompanied by a golden light, using the Earth Leaping Golden Light from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts, he instantly left the room.

He arrived above the Black Wind Kingdom.

A wisp of Plague Qi was lingering around him, emanating a chilling and uncomfortable aura.

In an instant.

A bitter smile surfaced on Xuanqing’s face, and he already knew what was going on in his heart.

He hadn’t expected the newly-established Black Wind Kingdom to be so weak that it had exhausted its national luck just by using the minimal time acceleration of one month.

Luckily, the Luck Jade Seal is a supreme treasure, and it automatically stopped when it sensed that continuing to draw upon the kingdom’s luck would cause severe consequences.

“Sigh… poor King Qingxu.”

Xuanqing let out a sigh.

Through the Luck Jade Seal, he had already sensed the condition of Gentleman Bai She, the king.

Although the Luck Jade Seal stopped at the end, leaving only an indistinguishable wisp of Plague Qi,

Gentleman Bai She, as the King of Black Wind Kingdom, was already extremely exhausted from the sacrificial ceremony, as well as from the overloading mental work required to review the memorial books.

This final, faint backlash of luck was like the straw that broke the camel’s back.

In the entire Black Wind Kingdom, the commoners were not affected, nor were the officials. Only Gentleman Bai She, the king, had fainted from exhaustion.

Temporarily ignoring the faint Plague Qi in the air,

Whoosh!

Xuanqing disappeared from the sky.

When he appeared next,

He had already reached Gentleman Bai She’s side.

Looking at the slumped Gentleman Bai She who had fainted on the table,

“Qingxu, oh Qingxu, why are you pushing yourself so hard?” Xuanqing’s mouth twitched slightly, unable to suppress his emotions and muttered.

With a thought,

A Ginseng Fruit appeared in his hand.

“Go!”

The Ginseng Fruit turned into a streak of light, shooting towards Gentleman Bai She’s mouth. Just when it reached the mouth, it transformed into Chaotic Qi, healing Gentleman Bai She.

Moments later.

“Hmm…”

Gentleman Bai She slowly came to, and the scene before him gradually became clearer. The figure in a Taoist robe came into his view.

“Sir… subordinate… how did I fall asleep here?” Gentleman Bai She shook his head, still in a daze.

Seeing this,

Xuanqing sighed and shook his head, saying, “You have overworked yourself, plus I went overboard in drawing the kingdom’s luck just now, causing you to fall into a coma.”

“I fed you a Ginseng Fruit to wake you up. It was my carelessness that made you suffer. I hope you won’t hold any grudges.”

Upon hearing this,

Gentleman Bai She was shocked and quickly stood up, bowing respectfully. “No, no, it has nothing to do with you, Sir.”

“Sir has given me such an opportunity, which is already a great fortune. How could I?”

“It’s because I want to help Sir gather the Divine’s flower as soon as possible to achieve my Destiny Golden Dragon body!”

Seeing this scene.

Xuanqing smiled.

It has to be said that Gentleman Bai She is very good at dealing with people in various situations. For example, this time, even if his mistake caused the other party to be injured, the other party took the initiative to shoulder the blame.

“Alright, I understand your intentions. Keep up the good work, and I will not let you down!” Xuanqing waved his hand.

He took out another Ginseng Fruit and threw it to the other party.

“Ah…this~”

Gentleman Bai She unconsciously took the Ginseng Fruit. When he saw the fruit clearly in his hand, he seemed a little at a loss.

However,

He also knew his Sir’s character: steadfast and decisive. He shouldn’t take what wasn’t given, but he couldn’t refuse what was awarded either.

“Thank you, Sir!” Gentleman Bai She carefully put away the Ginseng Fruit and bowed deeply again.

“Mmm!” Xuanqing nodded slightly before casting Earth Leaping Golden Light and leaving the Imperial Study Room.

Gentleman Bai She remained in a bowing position, watching his Sir leave before slowly standing up.

After taking a Ginseng Fruit, his spirit had fully recovered. He didn’t rest but continued to sit at his desk.

His heart was extremely eager to achieve the Destiny Golden Dragon body, and with Sir’s encouragement, he naturally needed to work even harder.

“Continue reviewing!” Gentleman Bai She took a deep breath and focused on reviewing the enormous pile of documents.

The next day.

Black Wind Mountain Peak.

Xuanqing stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the bustling Black Wind Kingdom below.

In the prosperous national destiny, a wisp of Plague Qi mixed in like a piece of rat feces in hot soup.

Although it couldn’t cause any harm to this newly-built kingdom and would disappear over time, this process was very slow and could not continue to nourish the God Soul.

Therefore,

He planned to manually expel this wisp of Plague Qi, using a simple method: as a Daoist Immortal Officer, he would burn a letter to heaven and borrow the power from the Plague God Mansion.

With this thought,

Xuanqing took out a yellow talisman with a wave of his right hand.

Considering his current status, unless it was a major event like founding a kingdom or worshiping heaven, he didn’t need to undergo complicated procedures. He just needed to burn a yellow talisman and send it to heaven.

“Duo Zha solemnly orders the Eastern Green Plague Ghost, Rotten Wood Spirit,

Southern Red Plague…”

With a chanting incantation, the yellow talisman burned without fire, turning into a wisp of blue smoke, floating straight up to heaven.

Moments later.

Xuanqing’s brows furrowed.

Although the yellow talisman had been sent to the Heavenly Court’s Five Plague Departments, not only was there no power of the Plague Gods, but there was not even a single message in return.

This was quite intriguing. Could it be that the Five Plague Gods… didn’t respect Daoist Xuanqing?

As he was lost in his thoughts,

Suddenly,

In the distant sky, five dim lights appeared, accompanied by a sacred aura and a large cloud of auspiciousness, descended onto Black Wind Mountain.

“Hahaha- We, the Five Plague Gods, pay our respects to Taiji Right Palace Dongyang Chief Inspector of Thunder Department Affairs!”

Xuanqing looked over.

He saw five immortals dressed in green, red, orange, white, and black, with different appearances, walking towards him.

The Five Plague Gods descended in person?

“I just wanted to borrow the power of the Plague Gods, but it unexpectedly caused the Five Plague Gods to descend directly?”

Xuanqing felt his brain short-circuiting.

The previous promotion of the Daoist Immortal Officer could be attributed to the cultivation of the Chaos Morality Holy Body, which made it impossible for him to teleport, so he had to let the Heavenly Court Household Department Office’s Immortal Officer descend.

But now he hadn’t done anything, and he swore… he had just burned a yellow talisman..
