Chapter 658: Friends From Out of Town Who Don't Understand the Customs of Da Zhou

Emperor Shun is a legendary figure in the Immortal Realm, as the immortal who is most proficient in the Dao of Time, his tracks are as hard to find as the founder of Taoism.

Some immortals recall that when they were little, an immortal blessed them with longevity. After they became immortals themselves, they drank with Emperor Shun, who laughed and said he had touched their heads when they were young, and then he playfully touched their heads again.

Some immortals recollect that they met a particularly accurate fortune teller in their childhood who told them they were destined to become immortals. Later, they discovered that this fortune teller was Emperor Shun.

Other immortals remember meeting an extraterrestrial being as a child who warned them to repay their debts, or else he would hound them from childhood to old age.

Emperor Shun visited the underground casino in the Immortal Realm and made such huge wins that the casino owner was left penniless.

Since then, all the casinos have banned Emperor Shun from entering, and they close for three days if they discover his presence.

Did they think that just because they couldn’t beat him, they couldn’t hide from him?

Everyone endured their annoyance and treated Emperor Shun politely with smiles on their faces, afraid that Emperor Shun might reveal something about them.

Before Emperor Shun, there were no secrets.

The Emperor had tried to arrest Emperor Shun, but each attempt was always a few seconds too late, allowing Emperor Shun to escape.

For the Emperor, who was proficient in the Dao of Time, it was a disgraceful setback. There were no coincidences, Emperor Shun must have calculated everything and very calmly escaped!

“Such strong national fortune!” As soon as they entered the Great Zhou, the trio felt the uncommonly strong national fortune of Great Zhou, which was undoubtedly the most powerful of the Nine Imperial Dynasties.

The method of amassing national fortune was widely circulated in the Ten Thousand Realms. However, the trio was seeing such a powerful nation like Great Zhou for the first time.

“So, the Human Emperor Jiang can freely come and go in the Underworld, and even the Ten Halls of Yama welcome him in a grand manner…” A lively storyteller’s voice echoed from the teahouse, attracting the attention of the trio.

The trio entered the teahouse and found that there were quite a few people listening to the storytelling. There wasn’t even a place left to sit down.

Witch Han picked a table, threw the occupants out of the teahouse, and took over the seats. The others could only watch in silent anger.

The current story was from the “Biography of the Human Emperor Jiang,” specifically the part about “When the Human Emperor Jiang visited the Underworld to seek his past life.”

“Although the Ten Halls of Yama is powerful, it is no match for the Human Emperor Jiang. The Emperor Jiang traveled through the Underworld as Yama personally introduced it to him.”

“Living humans visiting the Underworld? These Eastern Continent folks surely know how to exaggerate. Only the ignorant have no fear. The place called the Underworld is one where the living must die, and there is no hope of returning to the world of the living, not even if you are the child of a Primal Immortal.”

“…Facing the Heavenly Tribulation for his sixteenth time of becoming an immortal, which was the same Heavenly Tribulation that the founder of Taoism faced when he became a Primal Immortal, the Human Emperor Jiang laughed lightly, wielding the Qian-Kun in Sleeve, which could encapsulate heaven and earth, dominating over all. Therefore, even if your cultivation is vast, you cannot escape from his sleeve. Thus, the sixteenth time of becoming an immortal was absorbed into Emperor Jiang’s sleeve…”

“The Heavenly Tribulation for becoming an immortal has a second round, and the power is even more terrifying. It seems capable of shattering heaven and earth, and even the afterglow of the lightning can blind one’s eyes. Even immortals are not entitled to watch from the sidelines…”

“Who do you think the Human Emperor Jiang is? How could he pay attention to such Heavenly Tribulation? His Imperial Highness is the supreme Sword Cultivator of the Sword Dao — a sword with the power to sever the heavens, even making the heavens tremble with cold…”

“His dazzling sword illuminates the World, like a guiding light in the dark, giving all beings direction. All beings can only kneel before him in reverence, chanting the name of the Human Emperor Jiang…”

The trio listened to the storyteller’s wild exaggerations, chuckling continuously.

“These stories are just stories. They are not true. If he was so powerful, why didn’t he come and establish himself in the Immortal Realm, but instead, he is hiding in this tiny place called the Eastern Continent?”

All of them were immortals who had ascended from lower realms to the Immortal Realm.

When Witch Han said this without lowering his voice, others could hear clearly and felt uncomfortable, they retorted sarcastically.

“The Human Emperor Jiang is invincible; he doesn’t need to ascend to the Immortal Realm. The powerful don’t need to change their place to develop. Wherever the Human Emperor Jiang resides, it’s the most powerful world!”

“Such boasting!” Witch Han thought that the people of the Eastern Continent have a naive mindset, lacking respect for heaven and for immortals. This was not good.

Just when Witch Han was about to start killing people, there was a commotion outside the teahouse.

“It’s them! They were beating people in public and threw us out of the teahouse!”

The people who were thrown out by Witch Han had reported to the government, and the government officers had come to arrest Witch Han.

“Arrest me?” Witch Han stood up and stretched his muscles, looking at everyone as if they were dead men.

The man with snake-like pupils and the man with tiger stripes were as calm as Mount Tai, waiting for the blood to flow like a river.

Feigning weakness to trick the enemy is also a fun part of the investigation trip to the lower realm.

Killing a few people was no big deal, Immortal Lord Minghuo would not turn against them for this.

“Give me a bowl of Da Yong Noodles with added eggs, make it flavorful, add lots of chili, I can eat spicy food.”

At the noodle stall outside the teahouse, a patron arrived and placed an order confidently.

“Sir, your order is ready. There’s garlic on the table, help yourself.”

After taking a bite of the chili, the customer’s eyes lit up: “Boss, the taste of this Da Yong Noodles is quite authentic.”

“Absolutely, my ancestors for eight generations have been people of Da Zhou, it’s absolutely authentic!”

Seeing that the customer was a connoisseur, and it was not busy at that time, the boss came over and struck up a conversation.

“You don’t seem to be from around here, right?”

“My name is Zhou Li, I’m from Qingcheng.”

“Oh, you’re from Qingcheng, you’re a fellow townsman of the Human Emperor Jiang. What brings you here?”

In reply, Zhou Li pointed at the teahouse: “A few friends from outside came, and I’m afraid they’ll act recklessly and disrespect the traditions of Da Zhou. So, I came here specially to give a reminder.”

“It’s really not easy.”

“Who’s telling me? They just can’t settle down for a while. I just returned from a business trip from another world, I haven’t even gotten a chance to eat something, and I am already dealing with such troubles.” Zhou Li took a bite of his egg and complained.

Zhou Li finished his noodles at his leisure, drank the soup, wiped the chili oil from the corner of his mouth, and got up satisfactorily. He then made his way to the teahouse.

“Arrest me?” Witch Han attempted to use his immortal power to punish the arrogant mortals. However, when he threw a punch, his fist was as weak as a mortal’s, and even the Foundation Establishment Stage government officer could resist it.

“What’s happening!” Witch Han was horrified. His immortal power was sealed before he even realized it!

The man with snake-like pupils and the man with tiger stripes wouldn’t stand by and watch their companion get arrested. They shouted and tried to use their immortal techniques to fight back, only to discover that their immortal powers had disappeared without a trace.

“You dare to attack a government officer? That’s a serious crime! Take these three people, they will be tried back in the government office!” The government officer seized the three of them.

“Do you know who I am? You filthy mortals do not have the right to touch my divine body!” cried out the man with snake-like pupils, losing his cool. Fear crept in his heart as he did not know what exactly was happening.

Their pride always came from their immortal powers. Now that the immortal powers had disappeared and their divine bodies had reverted to mortal ones, how could they not fear?

Even the always composed man with tiger stripes started to lose his calm. The waters of the Eastern Continent ran too deep. Until now, he hadn’t figured out what went wrong.

Could it be that the Eastern Continent enforce rules that suppress the levels of outsiders?

The government officer clicked his tongue. These three guys were actually pretending to be crazy.

Could it be that they were trying to use the exception clause of “No punishment for crimes committed during psychotic episodes” to evade punishment?

They do know the law pretty well.

Jiang Li, with a bright smile on his face, followed them to the government office with his hands behind his back.
