![[END] Will Eternal](https://pub-2e531bea8d9e487cb3404fa20db89ccb.r2.dev/-end--will-eternal.webp)
The ten gods who served in the capital all lowered their heads and stared at their toes. From the grim expressions on their faces, one might assume that there was a profound secret to be found within their feet.
As Bai Xiaochun's words echoed in the hall, and as the anger of the Heavenly Age Spirit rose, the ten gods seemed to be on the verge of a trance, unwilling to participate in what was happening right in front of them.
This kind of god-level conflict was not things they would disturb even if they had ten times the courage they already had. In fact, most of them just wanted to run out the door.
The Celestial Age Spirit glared at Bai Xiaochun, unable to control his anger at how disgusting he was at handling matters.
Whether it was his incident with Marquis Zi Lin, or the matter of raising the farmer's salary, this made his guts twist as if he had unwittingly eaten a pile of dirt.
"What evil plans …." The Heavenly Soul Spirit thought, gritting his teeth, yet unable to vent his feelings. If he refused to follow the arrangements, then he would play right into Bai Xiaochun's hands. But if he agreed, the cost would be terrible. And since the second immortal domain did not actually belong to Bai Xiaochun, he obviously did not care about his expenses. But the Heavenly Aged Spirit actually viewed the second realm of eternity as his, and hence, thoughts of what was to come filled him with piercing pain.
His heart was burning with an almost uncontrollable killing intent, he got up, flicked his sleeve, and walked out. He disagrees or disagrees. When Bai Xiaochun saw this, he felt quite happy, and did not even feel the need to suppress the matter, confident that the Heavenly Aged Spirit would give a response sooner or later.
And that's what happened. Not even three days passed before the Celestial Aged Spirit issued a decree stating that all officials in the second immortal domain would be rewarded double.
It immediately caused a huge commotion, and countless cultivators felt extremely grateful towards the Heavenly Aged Spirit and Heavenspan King Bai Xiaochun. Of course, there were many people who knew, and realized that although it seemed like Bai Xiaochun had fought for the benefit of the people, the truth was that this was a battle between the two heavens!
And clearly, Bai Xiaochun had won this round. Slowly, opinions shifted about Bai Xiaochun, and some people even considered throwing a lot of money with him.
And thus with the two great events, Bai Xiaochun made a deep impression on the cultivators in the second immortal domain. The main benefit for him was that when people talked about heaven, they did not just talk about the Heavenly Aged Spirit like they had in the past. Bai Xiaochun was also now a frequent subject of conversation.
The Heavenly Aged Spirit noticed that, and it made him stop to think. Before, when Bai Xiaochun first arrived, he wouldn't have cared so much. Back then, he considered Bai Xiaochun to be basically a naive member of the younger generation, someone who had caused some annoying problems in Saint-Emperor City, he said, but that will not do much in the second eternal domain.
That was why, when Bai Xiaochun chose not to stand out, Aged Spirit considered it a sign of weakness. And thus, he had chosen to take down the Giant Ghost King, hoping to take advantage of that weakness to cut Bai Xiaochun even further.
His attitude remained the same after the incident with Marquis Zi Lin. Even though Bai Xiaochun had hit back at him, and it was frustrating to say the least, he still looked down on him. Back then, the Heavenly Aged Spirit had assumed that Bai Xiaochun's crude methods were nothing to fear, and that he could slowly but surely put him in his place.
But then .. Bai Xiaochun made an official proposal which was actually a cruel and decisive plot. It was only then that the Heavenly Aged Spirit finally began to look at Bai Xiaochun as something on par with him.
At this point, he took the time to seriously consider what would happen with the prolonged conflict with Bai Xiaochun. In the end, it would not really benefit the two, and in reality would only help Saint-Emperor.
As a celestial, he understood more than just how to destroy others with power. He also knows how to compromise and make deals. Therefore, unbeknownst to anyone he had secretly projected an image of himself onto Bai Xiaochun's private room.
Bai Xiaochun was there meditating. When he opened his eyes and saw the fog ball in front of him, and the smiling face within, he knew that, in the end, the Heavenly Age Spirit had come to negotiate.
After his chat with the Grand Heavenmaster, Bai Xiaochun knew what he needed and wanted, and also knew that he could not do it with just his current status. And he also knew that the person he least wanted to stay in the capital was the Heavenly Aged Spirit.
They are both celestial, and both know that sometimes, a word and a smile can give volume.
A moment passed, and the Heavenly Aged Spirit asked one question.
"What do you want?"
Bai Xiaochun replied with one short sentence. At that moment, the eyes of the Heavenly Aged Spirit glittered, and he spent a while before fading away. He did not give his response back then either.
No one knew that he had come to visit Bai Xiaochun, and he had never come for a second visit. Everything seemed to be going as before. He and Bai Xiaochun seemed to still be at odds, and during the occasional meeting that Bai Xiaochun attended, they always ended up with a big debate. As a result, the gods were constantly shivering in fear due to the possibility of an actual battle taking place.
A few months later, the prefectural guide of Plumflower visited the Heavenly Aged Spirit. Pouting and depressed, he said he wanted to retreat. When the Heavenly Aged Spirit asked for the reason, he said that Bai Xiaochun had sent a god named Situ to serve in Plumflower Prefecture as a vice teacher.
It was cruel and merciless, and very clever. Using many plots and schemes, he had turned almost everyone in the prefecture against the preceptor in just about three months. In fact, the teacher was actually afraid of Situ, and thus, wanted to resign and leave Plumflower Prefecture.
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Aged Spirit began to pant in anger. Apparently, this was some sort of final straw, pushing the Heavenly Aged Spirit to the point where it could not last much longer.
“What an incredible gall! You pushed too far, Bai Xiaochun !! ”
Without hesitation, he issued an order that the Giant Ghost King and Grand Heavenmaster would lead the troops from each prefecture to fight in the north. Moreover, if they failed to capture all the northern provinces, they would be imprisoned!
When the news came out, the capital began to smolder on the verge of exploding. The gods were all gasping for breath, convinced that something big was going to happen between the two heavens !!
"Not good! Something crazy is going to happen !! ”
"Paradise! The Saint-Emperor Dynasty has rules, doesn't it? Heaven is not allowed to fight each other within the borders of the country …. "
As news spread through the second immortal domain, Bai Xiaochun caught it, and his eyes glittered. Then he put an angry expression onto his face and out of his secluded meditation room, his celestial cultivation base raged to fill the city. Without any hesitation, he aggressively headed to the Heavenly Aged Spirit home.
"The Aged Spirit, you villain, this level of intimidation is outrageous!"
Even when Bai Xiaochun sent his divine sense smashing forward, another stream of divine sense came out to meet him. As they clashed, deafening explosions filled the ears of all the cultivators in the capital!
"Have a hope of death, Bai Xiaochun?!?!"
Apparently, the conflict between the two had finally reached a boiling point. Rumbling sounds filled the entire city, and clouds of dust screamed in the air. To the people of the city, it seemed like the end times had arrived!
