  “Of course, I wouldn’t show this side to others,” said Yan Zhaoge indifferently.

  Feng Yunsheng felt helpless against him. Her finger pointed at him, “Gosh, you…”

  While her tone sounded like she was scowling, her heart was feeling incredibly tender.

  This is my man…

  To meet him once more, I forced myself to endure, which allowed me to defeat that horrifyingly strong Exalted Rahu Luminary…

  “Oh, right. Someone else saw it too…” Yan Zhaoge suddenly remembered something, and the corners of his mouth raised, “It’s a little bit of a pity. I wasn’t the only one that saw the message you left behind.”

  Feng Yunsheng was taken aback for a moment.

  Yan Zhaoge extended his hand and placed it in front of her. First, he curled his thumb, “Brocade Emperor.”

  Feng Yunsheng, “Ah?”

  Yan Zhaoge then curled his index finger, “Myriad Emperor, Encompassing Emperor.”

  Feng Yunsheng, “Ugh…”

  Yan Zhaoge then curled his middle finger, “Lastly, your close friend. Junior apprentice-sister Meng, Meng Wan of the Sacred Sun Sect.”

  “…” Feng Yunsheng was left speechless.

  Feng Yunsheng, who didn’t even frown when discussing indecent stuff with Yan Zhaoge, was now filled with a blush on her face.

  When she was fighting against the Exalted Rahu Luminary, she was able to remain alive after almost dying. As she wasn’t confident about how her future would turn out, she couldn’t contain her emotions any longer. Even if she knew that others might see it, she couldn’t stop herself from writing the message.

  To a certain extent, Feng Yunsheng left that message with the intention of making it her will.

  Now that all the problems were solved, and she wasn’t in danger anymore, she naturally felt embarrassed when thinking back about it.

  After hearing how Yan Zhaoge had personally seen the message himself, Feng Yunsheng felt both happy and relieved.

  However, while Yan Zhaoge had seen the message, not only he was present during that time.

  Thinking back to the message she wrote, and how it was seen by others, especially her good friend – Meng Wan, she instantly felt like digging a hole to bury herself within.

  After all, she was still a fine lady.

  Especially now, when the two of them were preparing to visit Meng Wan…

  Thinking of it, Feng Yunsheng instantly looked at Yan Zhaoge with a pitiful expression.

  “Don’t look at me like that. That’s cheating.” Yan Zhaoge rarely got to see her acting like this. He couldn’t stop himself from touching her head, “It’s too different from your usual self. You’re too “moe”.”

  Feng Yunsheng pushed his hand away angrily, “Don’t look like you’re looking at a doll.”

  “Also, what does “moe” mean?”

  “I’ll slowly tell you about it.”

  As the two were conversing while laughing, they slowly reached the space where the Red Lotus Cliff was located.

  Feng Yunsheng and Meng Wan had not seen each other for a very long time. After the two met each other, they were naturally extraordinarily happy.

  Without accounting for the different speed where time flows in different spaces and calculating using the World beyond Worlds’ time, the two of them had been separated for almost twenty years.

  Ever since Meng Wan was taken away by Zhuang Chaohui in the Southeast Yang Heaven Territory’s Royal Reed Sea, the two had never seen each other since.

  After that, Meng Wan had regained her freedom once more, but Feng Yunsheng’s whereabouts were unknown.

  It was only until today, where the two of them finally reunited with each other.

  Four hands clasped against each other. Both Feng Yunsheng and Meng Wan felt like a century had passed since they saw each other.

  The long separation made the two of them a little unfamiliar with each other when they first met once more.

  However, as soon as a topic was set, the two of them immediately started talking endlessly. They had an endless amount of things to reminiscent about.

  When Feng Yunsheng and Meng Wan talked to each other, Yan Zhaoge was having a conversation with Fu Ting and He Xixing.

  Then, he also met the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi, in the Red Lotus Cliff.

  Previously, Fu Yunchi had not come out and had always been alone. In fact, he didn’t even converse together with the Southeastern Exalt – Cao Jie and others. Cao Jie and the others did not disturb him as well.

  However, now that matters had been settled, the Brocade Emperor would naturally not reject Yan Zhaoge’s visit.

  After the two of them met each other, the first thing the Brocade Emperor was concerned about wasn’t his situation, or if the Concealed Sovereign had given pointers on which martial art to cultivate. Instead, he asked, “How confident is the Exalted Fire in passing his current tribulation?”

  [1] In this case, “five maidens” refers to five fingers.

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1322 - Contributions Wasn’t Limited to This

  “It would be challenging for Senior Suo this time,” said Yan Zhaoge with a serious expression. “During our fight against the Immortal Court, the Blessed Lands of Buddhism might take this chance to attack the Immortal Court, and reap some benefits.”

  “However, the Future Buddha might not be willing to see a Grand Heavenly Immortal like Senior Suo appearing, especially when his destructive power is so strong.”

  Compared to the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor, the North Star Emperor, and the Incongruence Divine Mother, Suo Mingzhang’s attacking power and demeanor far surpasses them. Of course, this was without accounting in the difference between their cultivation.

  As a result, he appeared to be much more troublesome in the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord’s eyes and the Future Buddha.

  The Immortal Court had suffered a huge loss this time, and the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord’s attention was lured away by Suo Mingzhang. The Blessed Lands of Buddhism would take advantage of the situation and attack the Immortal Court.

  However, they weren’t sure of when the Blessed Lands would attack the Immortal Court.

  The Future Buddha might reserve more time for the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord.

  The Blessed Lands obtain benefits, while Suo Mingzhang perished by the hands of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord. This might be the outcome the Blessed Lands wanted to see.

  Of course, the Blessed Lands wouldn’t give the Immortal Court too much time. Otherwise, if the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord were to return to protect the Immortal Court, the Blessed Land would receive fewer rewards than they anticipated.

  If Suo Mingzhang were able to avoid the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord for a certain period, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord would be forced to return to the Immortal Court. He would be forced to give up his attention towards Suo Mingzhang and Yan Zhaoge.

  After Suo Mingzhang escaped to the void’s outskirts and became one with the boundless space, it wouldn’t be easy for the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord to lock on to him anymore.

  However, it wasn’t easy to endure this period either.

  “Hopefully, the Exalted Fire is blessed by luck.” The Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi nodded.

  Yan Zhaoge also nodded, “Hopefully.”

  Fu Yunchi then asked, “How many heretics perished this time?”

  “With only Grand Heavenly Immortals alone, there were already four,” said Yan Zhaoge. “Accounting in those that were killed by Senior Suo, there should be around twenty Virtual Immortals as well.”

  Fu Yunchi gasped, “As expected of the Martial God!”

  “Even the heretics would feel a heartache after losing so many of their troops. They wouldn’t be able to fill that amount back within a short time, especially the four Grand Heavenly Immortals. If nothing special happened, hundreds of years or even thousands wouldn’t be enough to compensate for their losses.”

  Fu Yunchi pondered and sai
d, “The balance of strength between the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands is about to fall apart. The war between them might start much earlier than expected.”

  “Indeed. If the Blessed Lands doesn’t seize this opportunity, they aren’t the Blessed Lands anymore.” Yan Zhaoge agreed.

  Whenever the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands fought, they would attempt to take each other’s lives and stabilize their faith power. The war usually lasts for a few years, or even more than ten years. Occasionally, the war might even last for tens of years.

  After a war between them had calmed down under normal circumstances, they would usually fight against each other once more than another hundred years later.

  There would be some exceptions which occasionally appeared, which caused the war to be declared less than, or more than the hundred years timespan.

  Only a few years had passed since the two sides last fought each other. They were still in the period of truce.

  However, due to the Exalted Fire – Suo Mingzhang killing many people from the Immortal Court, which made them suffer a considerable loss, the Blessed Lands would most likely declare war against the Immortal Court much earlier.

  From an objective perspective, it helped Yan Zhaoge and the others gain more time.

  If the Immortal Court were overwhelmed by the Blessed Lands’ invasion, they wouldn’t have the energy to send more reinforcements, solely for the sake of hunting down Yan Zhaoge and the others.

  The reason why Suo Mingzhang still decided to ascend to the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm despite knowing of the threats posed by the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord wasn’t solely because of how the situations turned out. It was also because of Yan Zhaoge’s future plans and consideration.

  He risked his life to break the balance of the situation apart, which allowed more people to survive and also bought time for others.

  Suo Mingzhang’s contributions weren’t just limited to this.

  The Immortal Court that suffered a huge blow would be defensive against the overbearing Blessed Lands. They would be put into a difficult situation.

  The Immortal Court might attempt to find some alliance, but the Blessed Lands could do the same. However, those were related to the contest between the experts of the higher-ups. Yan Zhaoge didn’t possess sufficient information and was unable to make an accurate prediction yet.

  Due to this, even if he could predict that the war between the two sides would happen much earlier, he could not predict the outcome.

  Yan Zhaoge and the others still couldn’t afford to let down their guards yet.

  After discussing with Fu Yunchi about the current situation, the topic slowly shifted towards the martial art – Severing Feeling’s Parasitism.

  “Maybe, this is truly the solution.” Fu Yunchi’s expression was serious, “I’ve seen some descriptions similar to what you said in some texts before. I feel like this “Severing Feeling’s Parasitism” martial art would be the key to solving my current crux. Sadly, I don’t know the method of cultivating it. I didn’t accomplish much by studying it myself, and nothing has been achieved yet.”

  Yan Zhaoge didn’t mention anything more about his thoughts to the Brocade Emperor. Instead, he said in a simplified manner, “At least, we found a glimpse of a solution to your problem. Besides, there might be other martial arts to revert everything.”

  “It’s fine, I’m not in a rush,” said Fu Yunchi with a calm expression. “I was too greedy in the past and pushed open the Immortal Door despite being incompetent. Now, I’m merely compensating for my past actions.”

  “Although the Concealed Sovereign plotted against me, it’s something that I asked for. Even if the Concealed Sovereign didn’t plot against me, I would eventually fell into the Immortal Court heretics’ plot.”

  Fu Yunchi shook his head, “The current situation is quite decent as well. At least, it’s better than me joining the heretics in the future.”

  Through their previous conversation, Yan Zhaoge had already knew that the White-clothed Brocade Emperor did not appear when Wang Zhengcheng and the others were besieging Xue Chuqing. In truth, he was being held back by people from the Immortal Court by the void’s outskirts, which prevented him from returning to the World beyond Worlds.

  This was related to Wang Zhengcheng and the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor.

  During the current confrontation between the Broad Creed Mountain and the Qilin Cliff, the Brocade Emperor chose to leave the World beyond Worlds together with Yan Zhaoge without any hesitation.

  Even when he knew that the Concealed Sovereign possessed the way to redirect his cultivation path to the righteous one.

  “I’m more worried about the Little Red Lotus, Little Wan, and Yi Xing now.” Fu Yunchi did not hide his intentions and looked at Yan Zhaoge.

  It was not a big deal if it was Futing alone, but Meng Wan and He Xixing knew of the existence of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord because of Fu Yunchi himself.

  Even though Fu Yunchi was on the verge of madness before he split, he couldn’t forget his actions, which resulted in such serious consequences. He was always thinking of a way to save them.

  There was also something he never included in his words. He was also worried about Yan Zhaoge’s condition.

  “My thoughts are a little immature, and I still need the time to perfect it,” answered Yan Zhaoge with a smile.

  Fu Yunchi stared at Yan Zhaoge intently and nodded. Then, he never said anything else.

  On the other side, Meng Wan looked worriedly at Feng Yunsheng, “Based on what you said, we’re still far from being in a peaceful state.”

  She didn’t make fun of Feng Yunsheng’s message. Instead, she continuously asked Feng Yunsheng about her experience for the past few years.

  “Naturally, we still aren’t in a peaceful state yet,” said Feng Yunsheng as she let out a sigh. “I still can’t confirm if the Exalted Rahu Luminary had already perished thoroughly or not. Besides, I now possess the authority of the Doomsday Heavenly Devil. I can’t predict what my future will look like.”

  She gave a bitter smile, “Without mentioning my internal problems, I have my external problems as well. The Great Devils of the Nine Underworlds are already targeting me.”

  “If it wasn’t for the two Daoist Heavenly Lords present, the Wood Devil might have already caught up to me.”

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1323 - Wood Devil, Becoming as Real as One’s Shadow

  Meng Wan had accompanied Yan Zhaoge and Fu Yunchi to the Nine Underworlds in the past, searching for Feng Yunsheng.

  They had even come across the traces of battle left by the Sword Devil – Yin Shiyang and Yan Zhaoge’s grandfather, the Sword God – Yan Xintang.

  “I remember my dad mentioning that the Wood Devil was the only one that never reincarnated among the Six Extinct Devils. He was a top-notch Great Devil that had been existing since the dawn of time.”

  Meng Wan had heard of Yan Zhaoge and the others’ explanation about the Twelve Devilish Gods in the past, and still deeply remembered about it.

  Fu Yunchi said, “That’s right. The Devil of Fire, the Devil of Aged Metal, the Water Devil, and the Earth Devil had reborn many times. Only the Heart Devil and the Shadow Devil had remained alive since they were born.”

  “Although they had received many blows before, the devils can still be reborn even after they perished. As a result, the Great Devils from the Nine Underworlds on par with our Daoist Grand Heavenly Immortals isn’t only restricted to the Six Extinct Devils.”

  “Of course, the Six Extinct Devils had always been stronger than other Great Devils. They are only inferior when compared to the Six Ancestral Devils.” Fu Yunchi shook his head, “When the Devil of Aged Metal had just been reborn as the Sword Devil – Yin Shiyang, he had already fought against the Exalted Gold Luminary. In the end, due to him still being in his weakened state, he perished once more.”

  “If more time were given to him, he would be able to retrieve the Devil
of Aged Metal’s powers very quickly. The horrifying powers that were peerlessly sharp and were capable of massacring the entire world.”

  Although the Brocade Emperor didn’t hope for the Devil of Aged Metal to be reborn, he was still sure of the said devil’s strength was superior.

  Meng Wan looked at Feng Yunsheng, “Even if the Devil of Aged Metal is so strong, it still experienced perishment more than once. Then, the Wood Devil that had been surviving since it was born…”

  Yan Zhaoge continued her sentence, “The condition of the Shadow Devil, also known as the Wood Devil, is special. The fluctuation of its strength is comparatively huge.”

  After thinking for a while, he said, “If you want to describe the Shadow Devil’s strength, maybe these words are appropriate to describe it.”

  “He tends to match his opponent’s strength. If his opponent is strong, he would be strong, and vice versa.”

  Fu Yunchi nodded, “That’s right.”

  Although Feng Yunsheng did not inherit the Exalted Rahu Luminary – Jian Shunhua’s memories, she had a deeper understanding of the devils after being in the Nine Underworlds for so long. She nodded as well, “Of course, it’s only when he’s fighting against others in the same realm as him. For those who are beneath the Heavenly Immortal Realm, he can oppress them with his cultivation alone.”

  Yan Zhaoge smiled and said, “Those below the Heavenly Immortal Realm wouldn’t even be able to see through his transformation. Without the ability to differentiate between his true and fake form, they would automatically lose.”

  The Shadow Devil was the primitive Wood Devil within the Twelve Devilish Gods. It had been alive since the ancient era until now.

  His unique ability was transforming into the appearance of others.

  Not only was there no flaws in his transformation, but he could also even clone his target’s cultivation and martial arts. He was able to intimidate everything perfectly.

  Which was why he gets stronger upon facing more vigorous opponents, and vice versa.

  Against those of the same realm, his combat prowess might be astonishingly high, and it might even be surprisingly low.
