Tianshen Qiantang, but at this moment, the Qiantang River is a howling, pure white moonlit expanse for the Rakshasa.

The people's hearts are unwavering, yet the leaves of the tree have fallen one by one, unable to protect its path and keep it whole.

There is a path among the mountains of books, but it gradually fades away.

Gao Zheng stood alone on the long embankment of Qiantang River, feeling lonely and desolate.

The Rakshasa, bathed in the moonlight, stands aloof on the headland, as if detached from this world.

The power of the peak of Dao's path, overwhelmingly crushing this place. Although Gao Zheng was faintly the number one true person in Nan Yu, relying on national strength, popular support, and the power of Shushan, he still couldn't stop it.

“Roluo Tower Master.” Gao Zheng’s voice was hoarse, but he still maintained his grace: “Though a soft persimmon is easy to squeeze, it would stain your hands, and that wouldn’t be a pleasant thing.”

"Is that so" Luo Sha Mingyue's clean hand continued to sink, her slender white fingers like a celestial descent: "I want to see how you would stain my hands."

“Can we not discuss this any further” Gao Zheng asked.

"The man is dead, and the action of the Sanfenxianglou has failed." Luo Sha Mingyue said, "How do we proceed"

Gao Zhengdao said, “Wrongdoing has a head and debt has an owner. I didn't report the whereabouts of Master Guilou Fengxiang.”

"So, you're suggesting I go find Wen Jingxiu" Luo Sha Mingyue asked with a pure smile.

"Whom you choose is your own freedom, but I think this matter doesn't concern the Emperor... Besides, assassinating the Emperor would be a great trouble for you."

Gao Zheng saying 'she's a trouble,' is giving Luoshan Mingyue a gilded label. In an era where the national system was mainstream, how could the rightful emperor not punish someone who defied him There are reasons for changes within the imperial court, and like Luoshan Mingyue, unless she no longer wants her Three-Fragrance Tower, she herself must be prepared to become a fugitive living abroad.

"That's Gong Zhiliang, isn't it"

> "You are welcome to do as you please."

“Strange indeed!” said the Rakshasa Mingyue in astonishment, “You are a famous person from Yue Guo. Why don’t you think about Yue Guo for anything Wouldn't it be better to simply die here honestly without making any ripples”

Gao Zheng emphasized: "It was the former prime minister."

He sighed: "I lived for Yue國 in the first half of my life, and in the second half, I want to live for myself."

Luo Sha Ming Yue Jing You Ran said: "It sounds like you have quite a bit of resentment. It seems that you chose to retire before your term ended, there must be some stories in between."

In the year 3729, Gao Zheng, then minister of state for Yue, promoted the alliance against immortals. This made him famous and powerful for a time. He was known as the "most illustrious prime minister throughout history" before even leaving office!

But after only five years, he retired. From then on, he secluded himself at Xiangfeng Peak, cutting off all communication.

This matter has been the subject of much discussion, but only those involved know the truth.

"There are some, not very bright secrets." Gao Zheng strained himself: "Gao is willing to pour out this old story, does the host wish to listen quietly"

When Gao Zheng retired, the country of Yue was not ruled by its current emperor, and even Emperor Wenjing Xiu of Yue had yet to be born.

With the support of Nandou Hall and the backing of Mugu Bookstore, under the gaze of Mount Shu, the hearts of the people across the land… why did this renowned minister suddenly withdraw during a time of turbulent upheaval All these stories within are indeed worth a read.

"Enough!" Luo Sha Mingyue said, "I've researched Chen Pu. There's just a small disturbance in the calamity water, which he's dealing with right now. When he receives your message and comes over... it will also be about this time. So, do you have any last words"

Gao Zheng lowered his eyes: "It seems you are determined to kill me here today."

“Are you determined to be at odds with me and the Qiangxi Building Is this Yue state ultimately ruled by the Gao clan or the Wen clan, it’s hard to say. Gong Zhiliang is nothing more than a lackey of your doorstep – with a single stroke of the Chu nation's butcher knife, Yue state hurried to flee the scene. How dare you claim ignorance” Luo Shat Mingyue clarified: “When Fara perished, you should have had this realization.”

“I still have a lot of things I haven't finished.” Gao Zheng hung his hands slightly, his eyebrows drooping, as if he had already given up resisting, but he said, “Luo Sha Louzhu, don't push me.”

"Looks like this is your final testament." Luo Sha Mingyue's voice was emotionless. The hand that had reached out from afar suddenly retracted.

The embankment serves as the axis, and the river surface as the canvas.

Like a drunken madman, he writes with unrestrained abandon!

The last vestiges of color on Gao Zheng's body, his vibrant crimson true blood, were drawn out and splattered across the air in large, bloody sheets!

Thus, the sky became a canvas.

Those clouds and moon are just the backdrop.

But Gao Zheng did not die immediately.

His breath did not weaken, but instead began to rise.

>

Within him, a power as vast as the sea roared!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

He stood alone on the bridge, stretching as if reaching for the heavens—he was touching the very limits of this world, climbing to the peak of the extraordinary.

"Such deep contemplation, so carefully concealed, there must be a grand plan!" Luo Sha Ming Yue's words carried a hint of admiration, as if she wasn't the one forcing Gao Zheng to immediately cast his Dao.

She is the mistress of color.

Gao Zheng was a person depicted by colors.

The power of endless ascension, the solitary and independent figure, a world of black and white, the silent Qiantang River, and the vast expanse painted with blood!

In the painting, Gao Zheng remained silent. He raised his hand and gestured toward Luo Sha Mingyue Jing, intending to show this woman his power.

Luo Sha Ming Yue gently sighed, “It’s a pity, if you had embarked on the path earlier—”

That's all she said.

But her jade-like hand, at this moment, also became a myriad of dazzling colors. What a splendid night on the Qiantang River!

The figure of Raksash Myojin disappeared, and the voice of Raksash Myojin disappeared as well.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Only large patches of color covered Gao Zheng's body, making him look like a life-sized, iridescent clay sculpture.

A mud man should be in the hands of a craftsman, rather than standing alone on the riverbank.

Amongst all the colorful hues, only Gao Zheng's eyes were black and white.

>

At this moment, his eyes widened in disbelief, revealing a fear beyond imagination: "You've been hiding your true strength all along!"

His eyes were also a mixture of colors.

When spring walks to autumn, the brilliant will wither.

Like a fallen leaf, blown away by the wind. So calm and serene.

This thousand-year-old dike, at this moment, is deserted with no pedestrians. Only the river wind still comes, rolling up a few waves of sound.

Gao Zheng's voice also disappeared.

Wow!

On the Qiantang River, the tide rises and falls with great power. When the tide comes in, there is no longer any self.

The black and white world seemed to not exist, and colorful figures did not appear to have ever shown up.

The bright moon shines over the vast river, eternally lonely.

When the sky wept with a drizzle of blood, carried by the tide came a breath of spring wind.

On the river surface, waves bloom again. Long embankments willow trees sprout new green.

But that young man who dared to ask about the MoGu Book Academy back then is gone.

The headmaster of Muge Bookstore, Chen Pu, stood silently on the long embankment.

He stood in the place where Gao Zheng had once stood, his expression grave.

Although Luo Sha Ming Yue cleansed all traces, she didn't cover up the fact that she killed Gao Zheng—she only removed the possibility of people tracking her down.

>

As for Gao Zheng's ability, Chen Pu considered himself to be very knowledgeable.

For a long time, Gao Zheng had single-handedly supported the Yue Kingdom against formidable foes like the Chu State. Of course, he had anticipated various scenarios and made numerous contingency plans, ensuring that he would never be caught off guard, both emotionally and rationally.

But today, he still died in battle.

Who would have thought he would die at the hands of Luo Sha Ming Yue Jing

Gao Zheng could have become a Daoist master in one step. Within the territory of Yue Guo and with the support of Shushan, he should have been able to withstand the time it took for one step. He was also cautious and never left Yue Guo half a step. Yet, he died halfway up the peak.

Thus, the sorrow of heaven and earth is but the lament for the departure of a true person.

Chen Pu shook his head, just as he had when he first saw Gao Zheng.

Tai Xu Ge member Jiang Wang and Dong Tian Shi Song Huai stood outside Du Er Feng, looking at each other in silence.

>

To be precise, it was Song Huai who remained silent.

Although Jiang Wang was keeping his eyes open, his mind was lost in the contemplation of the Ru Meng Ling (Dream Realm), performing Daoist calculations. Since he learned about the unconscious ocean from Yin Yang Xiao Sheng Zhao Fanlu in the Five Deities Microcosm, his Ru Meng Ling had undergone a fundamental improvement.

As a member of the Tai Xu Pavilion, possessing the highest authority over the Tai Xu Fantasy Realm's Daoist Platform, the Dao arts deduced through the platform are far more perfect than those he deduces himself. However, the process of deducing Dao arts using the Ru Meng Ling brings true comprehension to Jiang Wang. The former knows what it is, while the latter knows why it is so.

Now, Jiang Wang is more accustomed to using the Evolving Dao Platform to verify after a deduction in the Dream-like Order. It's like checking the answer after an exam.

Mount Du'e Peak was shrouded in a sea of soldiers. Within the secret realm of Nandou, there had always been no movement reported.

Song Huai still couldn't help but speak: "You get along so well with that boy from the Left family, don't you worry about their situation inside"

Jiang Wang casually replied, "If there could be any surprises in a war that's so foolproof, then it's not something I can solve."

With Duke An Guo leading the charge and a large army at his back, this war was something that everyone in Chu, from high to low, was watching closely. He wasn't truly worried about it at first. But Song Huai's question made him start to doubt himself - had Dong Tian Shi seen something Could there really be an unforeseen event

"What do you think of the state of Chu" Song Huai asked.

Jiang Wangdao: "The land is blessed with riches and wonders, the people are talented and wise. Brilliant words flow like brilliant rivers, bringing elegance to the world!"

"What do you think of Jing Guo" Song Huai asked again.

“Not bad!” Jiang Wang said.

Song Huai glanced at him: "...What do you think of Wu Zhaochang"

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

"Duke An is not someone I am qualified to evaluate," Jiang Wang couldn't help but retort, "You... is there something you want"

“I can’t stand to see you cultivating in front of me.” Song Huai’s expression was serious: “My disciple wasted five years, and I’ll waste some time on you too.”

Jiang Wang looked at him for a moment, unsure if he was serious or joking. In the end, she still respected the elderly man: "Then I'll go behind you to cultivate. Don't look back, so it won't count as being in front of you."

Just at this moment, the clouds of murderous aura surrounding Mount E Peak dispersed in an instant.

Holding the Heaven-Piercing Halberd, Xiang Bei leaped onto the peak. Clad in heavy armor, splattered with bloodstains. The murderous aura lingered on him, radiating an imposing presence. From afar, he roared: "East Celestial Master, Jiang Ge Yuan, please enter the feast at Nandou - The Duke invites you!"

His tall figure, like a mountain shadow outside the mountains. But under the gradually brightening light, his outline became clearer and clearer.

Now the darkness had been torn apart, and the sun peeked out half its face.

This long night has passed.

"Nan Dou Dian is gone!" Song Huai stated.

"The Nandou Hall is gone." Xiangbei confirmed.

Jiang Wang merely shifted slightly to the side and said to Song Huaili, "Please go ahead."

After the storm clouds dispersed, Mount Dueya didn't seem deserted at all. Even while the main armies were clashing within the Nandou Secret Realm, a large number of auxiliary soldiers had already been clearing the rubble on the mountain—it was obvious that the Chu people now considered this place their own territory, tidying up their own backyard.

At this moment, the ominous clouds dissipated, and the night receded. Golden light flowed across the mountains, as if reborn.

But this feeling disappeared once I truly entered the Nan Dou Secret Realm.

Stepping easily into the Nan Dou Secret Realm through the already shattered entrance, following Xiang Bei who led the way, they flew towards a star named "Si Ming."

With Jiang Wang's sharp eyesight, he could see the people living on this star from afar.

From this vantage point looking down on humanity, they appear as small as ants and, like ants, tirelessly crawl about their humble dwellings.

The Chu army did not carry out any massacres of civilians here, and even the lives of these Starry citizens were not greatly affected—the main battlefield was still in the place known as the "Hall of Destiny" by the Starry citizens.

The battles that took place in the mortal cities were all aimed at capturing fleeing Southern Dipper cultivators. They weren't generally large-scale, nor were there any major surprises.

But the atmosphere in Nandu Secret Realm was still very oppressive. This oppression was by no means simply because of the fall of the Nandu Sacred Temple.

Jiang Wang saw the ominous qi.

The murderous aura emanating from the blade wielded by Dou Zhao was extremely potent and lingered for a long time.

Jiang Wang heard the anxious hearts of the people.

Jiang Wang heard that there was a well-read scholar in the mortal world who, standing on a tall building, looked up at the sky with grief and said: "On this day, stars fall like rain, and immortals have perished!"

Such an old man, if he were born into the current world, would have a chance to break through the barrier between heaven and earth and achieve the state of a god descending. His spiritual cultivation was extremely full. Sadly, in the Starry World, he failed to even take that step beyond the ordinary. Now, his body is frail and his divine essence is fading, his life nearing its end…

Endless sights and sounds, all within earshot. In Jiang Wang's eyes, stars flowed like rivers.

He followed silently behind Xiang Bei, arriving at the "Immortal Residence" on the star of Si Ming. They reached the "Eternal Saint Plateau," where the "Si Ming Temple" was built.

The most sinister place is ironically, right here.

It's not hard to imagine what happened here.

The Chu army methodically cleaned up the area, tearing down rubble, wiping bloodstains, and dragging away bodies.

Song Huai sighed casually: “Already extraordinary, yet still worldly, entering sainthood is a distant hope.”

Jiang Wang walked among the ruins: "Between life and death, who can transcend"

“You’ve already seen all of this,” Song Huai asked, not shying away from Xiang Bei who was leading the way ahead. “Why hasn't the chaotic order of the Nandou Hall spread on a large scale among mortals”

Jiang Wang pondered, "Because the multitude of living beings are extremely fragile and also extremely vast. They cannot be tainted by just a few strokes of ink."

"Because there isn't enough time." Song Huai had a different opinion: "Human hearts are filled with poison, their cruelty far exceeding your imagination.”

Jiang Wang remained silent.

A group of people walked past a collapsed temple, its corridors were in ruins and the tiles were scattered everywhere.

Jiang Wang felt inexplicably moved: "What kind of hall is this"

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Ahead, Xiang Bei, who led the way silently, casually replied: “The welcoming hall of Nandou Hall, the Fragrance Building which connects with Nandou Hall, all those people reside here and died here.”

>

“Is that the first one, Xinxang” Jiang Wang remembered thinking he knew the woman’s name, but for some reason, it wouldn’t come to him.

"Her name is Mei Yue." Song Huai, standing beside her, said.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Thus, the name reappeared in Jiang Wang's mind. Like something that had been hidden somewhere before, it suddenly jumped out now.

When it comes to the annihilation of Nandou, there are bound to be some secrets. Jiang Wang didn't try to delve into their meaning: "It must be Xiang Ge's achievement"

Item Bei shook his head: “I hadn't even made a move before they turned on each other.”

“No body.”

"They should be taken out and dealt with uniformly. Would Brother Jiang like to take a look"

"It's alright, I don't know him either." Jiang Wang said casually as she walked past.
