Chapter 278 A sudden turn of events What does he look like in my memory? Tan Ruo remembered it very clearly and had never forgotten it. At that time, the leader of all nations in the Central Land of Southern Continent was still the Great Tang Dynasty that was known as the Heaven of Tang and blessed all nations. At that time, Master Xuanzang retrieved the true scriptures, and Emperor Shimin of Tang was given the title of Heavenly Khan. During the prosperous Zhenguan era, everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment. But he doesn't think so. He said to Tan Ruo: Not everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, it is just like this in Chang'an. There is not only one Chang'an in this world, and not all of the Tang Dynasty is Chang'an. When did you meet him? Yes, it was by the Ba Bridge. At that time, the Tianren Royal Court was fighting for the position of Tianren Crown Prince. Although he had no interest in power, he was a direct descendant of the Tianren King and could not hide or avoid it.

I finally found an opportunity to go down to the mortal world to relax, but I met him. By the Shili Ba Bridge, he was clearly just an adult and should be in the prime of his life, but he was standing alone in a green robe, facing the wind, with an unshakable sorrow in his eyes. Tan Ruo was very curious, what was this mortal worried about? But Tan Ruo just took a glance. She came here to relax. She was the third princess of the Heavenly King's Court and a transcendent immortal. The sorrow of a mortal man would at most just make her look at him a little more. But after entering Chang'an, Tan Ruo saw him again. The wealthy family had a strong servant in black. The door was closed to him and the servant looked at him with contempt. "You'd better go to another mansion. My family is small and cannot accommodate a big Buddha like you." Jianpu said sarcastically. He stood in front of the red door, his eyes lowered, a scroll of silk book tightly clasped in his hands. After standing for a long time, he let out a sigh, turned and left. Tan Ruo became more curious and followed him with his spiritual consciousness, watching him run into obstacles and suffer insults in front of every wealthy family. She placed her spiritual consciousness on the silk book in his hand. Tan Ruo really wanted to see what kind of scroll it was that could lead to such failures everywhere. Could it be that this was a fool who had no talent at all but was unaware of it? On the book of land annexation. This is his travelogue. It does not contain any flowery words, but simply explains the disadvantages of land annexation and points out the solutions. It is extremely pragmatic and clear. It seems that as long as you follow this article, you can achieve excellent results. Tan Ruo didn't quite understand the so-called land annexation in the human world, but she knew very well that in the human world, as in heaven, the one with the bigger fist had the final say. And the land was in the hands of the nobles. He asked the wrong person for help. His article was intended to take advantage of the nobles.

But if he wanted to be an official, if he wanted to put his writings into practice, he had to submit his applications to banks and win the favor of the nobles. This is an endless loop. Tan Ruo thought about it in her mind and didn’t pay any more attention to it. He is just a young man who wants to plead for the people but has no other way to do so. But Tan Ruo didn't expect that she and he would meet for the third time. When she was returning to heaven from the human world, the guiding divine light of the Heavenly King's Court suddenly collapsed, and her Taoism and soul were also shaken. All of a sudden, she was transformed from a celestial princess into an ordinary woman on earth. This obviously cannot be achieved simply by the collapse of the Guiding Divine Light; there are other blessings behind it. Tan Ruo knew very well that this was the trick used by her elder sister. Not turning her into ashes in the fight for the throne was already a kindness on her part. But she never thought about fighting for anything. Tan Ruo could only smile bitterly as he watched the maid who had urged him to go to the lower world to relax stare at him with cold eyes and then fly away without looking back. Then he lost consciousness. His sister's method was extremely cruel. She destroyed his immortal foundation and turned him into a mortal. Not to mention going to heaven again one day, even living like a mortal was already a luxury. When Tan Ruo woke up again, he found that he was not only still alive, but also living well. Even his immortal foundation, which had been completely broken, was slowly recovering. This surprised Tan Ruo greatly until she saw the man in blue sleeping with his head bowed beside her bed. Even with his eyes closed, there was still a hint of fatigue in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and visible exhaustion. Tan Ruo had a feeling that the recovery of her immortal foundation and her unexpectedly good condition had a lot to do with this man in green. As expected, after the green-clothed man woke up, before Tan Ruo had spoken, the green-clothed man said, "Since there is no problem, leave as soon as possible. I am not interested in your past, nor do I seek any reward." Tan Ruo asked him what happened to his immortal foundation. The man replied: There was a Taoist priest who used his great magical powers to transplant his immortal platform to her. Tan Ruo only then realized that the man was born with an immortal platform, a rare talent for cultivation, but he had no interest in becoming an immortal or practicing cultivation. He said: Practicing cultivation seeks transcendence and ascension, and practitioners are not allowed to interfere in human affairs. This is what I don't want. The world does not lack a cultivator with amazing talents, but it lacks a mortal who is willing to plead for the people. Now that he has left the immortal platform, his chances of becoming an immortal have been completely cut off, so he can concentrate on his own business. Tan Ruo asked him: Do you know that the path you have chosen is a fruitless one? In this era, your theory is a heresy that is regarded as a scourge by the vested interests. Even if you can meet the emperor and state your political views in front of the Khan, what then? Even the Khan of Heaven, even the Son of Heaven who is the head of all nations, has his constraints and cannot help you realize your pursuit. The man remained silent, and finally said: Some things must be done. Tan Ruo looked at him and suddenly said: I'll help you. The man refused silently, but Tan Ruo ignored it and stayed stubbornly.

Time passed little by little, and the man was still begging for the door but to no avail. Tan Ruo had been watching over him, watching him hit a wall again and again, watching him become depressed again and again, but he would soon cheer up again. It seems that he will do what he can, whether it is helping the people write petitions or teaching children to read. He tried to take the imperial examination, but it only opened a path for people from poor families, and he was not even from a poor family. In this way, after two years, he still had no official title, and no wealthy family accepted his application. He tried to knock on the palace gate, but was expelled by the Jinwu Guards. He tried to participate in poetry competitions to express his political views, but was ridiculed as "How dare a commoner talk about governing a country?" Tan Ruo has been following him. In two years, Tan Ruo's immortal foundation has been completely restored and he can embark on the path of cultivation again. But she didn't want to. She just wanted to follow him and stay with him. Seeing him being surrounded by children calling him "sir", he agreed generously, but turned around and gave her a shy smile. Seeing him redressing grievances for the people, he would rather receive twenty strokes of the cane from the people when they sued the officials, than to argue for the people in the hall. But there are too many injustices. Whether it is the prosperous period of Zhenguan or the rule of Wen and Jing, in the final analysis, they are all sucking the blood of the people. He was too tired, the worry in his eyes grew heavier, and his shoulders grew heavier. Tan Ruo couldn't bear it, so she chose to embark on the path of spiritual practice and use her magic power to heal his wounds so that he could sleep well. The immortal platform he gave to Tan Ruo was very magical. Even though it was not very compatible with Tan Ruo, it still allowed Tan Ruo's cultivation speed to far exceed before. This is even based on the premise that the spiritual energy in the human world is far inferior to that in heaven. It is no exaggeration to say that we make rapid progress every day. But Tan Ruo was always suppressing herself. She didn't want to ascend to heaven or become an immortal. She even stopped her magic power from nourishing her body. Under the erosion of time, she became mature little by little. Just to accompany him. Finally, five years later, at the age of 25, he was already an "old man" of this era, and the elderly and familiar people were all persuading him to get married as soon as possible. When saying this, he always looked at Tan Ruo intentionally or unintentionally. Finally, Tan Ruo said to him: Let’s get married. He was silent for a long time and finally nodded. The wedding was not very grand, it was just held in a small village, but many people came to congratulate. Everyone thanked him from the bottom of their hearts and sent them blessings. "Worship heaven and earth!" The old man's smiling voice sounded, and he looked at the man and woman in wedding clothes with satisfaction. But he didn’t even complete the first of the three bows. The sky suddenly darkened, and soldiers belonging to the Heavenly King's Court descended from the sky, making a cold announcement. Tan Ruo, the third daughter of the celestial royal family, secretly came to the mortal world and married a mortal with the intention of confusing the royal bloodline and tarnishing the dignity of the celestial beings. Her crime is unforgivable. However, the contemporary Celestial King Tan Yan took into consideration that Tan Ruo and she were blood sisters, so he pardoned her and sentenced her to four reincarnations. After four lives, she could still be a princess of the royal court, but she had to be confined to the divine tower for life and pray for the Celestial King.

The cold declaration, along with equally cold chains, bound Tan Ruo. Tan Ruo underestimated her sister's ruthlessness. Everything she did in the human world was under Tan Yan's surveillance. Her rapid progress in spiritual practice made Tan Yan feel a sense of crisis. That stubborn and suspicious sister would never put her hope on Tan Ruo not fighting. So today's scene happened. The last thing Tan Ruo saw in the world was the unfinished wedding, the heart-wrenching look in her lover's eyes, and the unremovable hatred deep in those eyes. Hatred towards the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly King, and the Heavenly Beings. That look was exactly the same as Jiang Lin's today. Above the Heavenly King's Court, the Taoist in green stretched his arms tautly, his five fingers as hard as steel, tightly gripping the neck of the current Heavenly King, Tan Yan. "You have insulted my wife and deserve to die." As soon as he finished speaking, the strength in Jiang Lin's hand suddenly burst out, and the power of Ziwei mercilessly covered Tan Yan's body. "Crack..." A slight sound represented that Tan Yan's immortal foundation was shattered and his cultivation was annihilated. The pain of this process made Tan Yan's eyes widen with countless bloodshot. But the pain did not last long, and Tan Yan's eyes suddenly dimmed. This meant that her life force had also left her body. Under the blood-thirsty gazes of three celestial golden immortals and dozens of great celestial immortals, Jiang Lin strangled to death the contemporary queen of their celestial race right here in the celestial royal court! "die!!!" At the same time, the Purple Star power in Jiang Lin's body could no longer be maintained and slowly dissipated. Almost at the same time, three Golden Immortals and dozens of Celestial Immortals launched the most brutal and fierce killing methods. They no longer cared about anything else and wanted to kill Jiang Linzhen on the spot. Jiang Lin, who was already at the end of his strength, just watched coldly. Forcibly activating the Ziwei True Method and borrowing the power of Ziwei for blessing has exhausted Jiang Lin's magic power and energy. At this moment, Jiang Lin seemed to have no room for resistance. but…… "Crack..." A soft sound came from Jiang Lin's mouth. The golden elixir that he had been holding in his mouth for a long time suddenly shattered. Countless pure medicinal powers were absorbed and transformed almost instantly under the powerful operation of the flawless immortal foundation and the Ziwei true method. But it was already too late. The full-force attack of three Golden Immortals and dozens of Heavenly Immortals was not easy to stop. Even Jiang Lin, who regained his spirit and energy in a short period of time, could only mobilize the power of the Big Dipper to barely resist. 'boom! ! ’

The power spreads, enough to shake the entire Heavenly King's Court. But when the dust settled, Jiang Lin was unharmed. An old man in white stood in front of Jiang Lin. The moment they saw this old man, all the celestial beings present knelt down. "We are waiting to meet the ancestor!" Jiang Lin looked at the old man standing in front of him, and the old man turned around as well. He looked very old, as if he would be blown down by a gust of wind, but in Jiang Lin's eyes, this old man had an aura that he could not understand at all. He had only felt that feeling in the Third Prince and Wei Tianjun. Jiang Lin knew very well that the old man in front of him was definitely a being above the Golden Immortal, a Golden Immortal of the Celestial Race. "You have crossed the line. Do you know the consequences of your coming here in anger today?" The old man looked at Jiang Lin and asked with a neutral expression. Jiang Lin didn't say anything, but just looked at the old man quietly. "With the Emperor of Fengdu in front of you, the Celestials cannot take your life. But if you do nothing, the Celestials will lose face and dignity." The old celestial being didn't care about Jiang Lin's offense and silence, and just kept talking to himself. "All of this needs to be resolved. Even the Emperor of Fengdu cannot ignore the voice of my entire Celestial Race." The old man stared at Jiang Lin closely, but finally, he suddenly took two steps back and waved his hand. But he was not directed at Jiang Lin, but at the body of Tan Yan on the ground. With just a wave of his hand, the body suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared from the beginning to the end. The next moment, as the old man waved his hand, the divine tower, which had been cut into a large piece, seemed to have turned back in time. Countless ruins returned to their places, and in just a few breaths, the divine tower was restored to its original state. "I have a solution." The old celestial being actually laughed. He smiled and waved at Jiang Lin again. While the Golden Immortal and Heavenly Immortals of the Celestial Clan were hesitant to speak, Jiang Lin's figure disappeared. He was not killed by the being above the Golden Immortal, but was sent away instead. Without saying a word, he rushed to the Heavenly King's Court, destroyed the Heavenly King's Divine Tower, and even killed the murderer of the current Heavenly King in front of countless Heavenly Beings. Only to be sent away by his own ancestor just like that! This is simply... "Ancestor! Even the Emperor of Fengdu cannot..." Before Elder Jinxian could finish his words, he was interrupted by a look from Patriarch Tianren. "Who gave you the courage to address the Emperor of Fengdu by his name?" The ancestor of the celestial beings gave a light reprimand, then turned around and his figure landed on the Wangting Divine Tower. He looked around and his voice rang in the ears of all the celestial beings present. "The current queen of our Celestial Race, Tan Yan, died of illness. How sad and regretful." Hearing this, all the celestial beings present raised their heads with red eyes and looked at the ancestor in confusion.

The old ancestor didn't care and just continued to speak. "According to the order of our ancestor, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. We must choose another direct descendant of the royal family to inherit the throne." "Tan Yan has no heir, so he follows the rites of the elder brother to succeed the younger brother." "My clan's third princess, Tan Ruo, is both the legitimate and the eldest, so she should be made the new king!" (End of this chapter)
