Chapter 1531: Chapter 1478 – Chapter 1479 Why Pretend to Be Deaf and Dumb_2 Chapter 1531: Chapter 1478 – Chapter 1479 Why Pretend to Be Deaf and Dumb_2 If it were the former, then everything could be called coincidental, and this would just be a problem unique to the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, something the Jade Emperor could easily resolve.
Whether through threats and bribes, trying to snatch the Great Law Decree Technique from the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder's hands, or truly resorting to a murderous move, paying any price to completely suppress the other's Incarnation here, either way, there is a solution.
Keep in mind, within this boundless Chaos Void, even True Immortals can't guarantee that their Incarnations are invincible, and it's commonplace for the Incarnations of True Immortals to fall for various reasons.
Moreover, even if the Incarnation of a True Immortal falls, they would still obtain memories from their Incarnation, knowing how it perished, unable to prevent it without special methods.
But this does not occur instantly, there is a time lag in this process, after all, different worlds have different speeds of time flow.
Considering the current distance and time flow between the Myriad Laws Realm and the Divine Land World, this time difference is entirely enough for the Jade Emperor to do many things, and by the time the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder learns about everything his Incarnation experienced, it would be of no use.
Even by then, facing a stronger Jade Emperor, what he needs to consider is how to extinguish the Jade Emperor's wrath, how to resolve the grudge, rather than regain face.
However, this is based on the assumption that the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder's actions were spontaneous, motivated by greed upon discovering the Great Law Decree Technique while cultivating in the Myriad Laws Realm.
It's not implausible for such events to occur, especially for powerhouses from Class B World No.1 like the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.
After all, for other world's powerhouses, their worlds inherently contain divine power skills; they have enough foundation and learning those isn't hard.
Whereas Class B World No.1 is a Transcendent World developed on the basis of Martial Arts, even if they possess Martial Arts Mysteries akin to divine powers, it is completely different.
Therefore, even if they managed to integrate into the Divine Continent at the beginning, these powerhouses from Class B World No.1 could only acquire general divine powers, yet the top-tier divine powers would be hard to obtain.
Even with the Taoist Academy available, allowing them to cultivate divine powers, they are well-known to everyone and do not meet the needs of these powerhouses.
Thus, the emergence of the Myriad Laws Realm undoubtedly presented a great opportunity for the True Immortals of Class B World No.1 to cultivate and remedy their shortcomings.
So, according to the Jade Emperor's thinking, he hoped it was the first scenario and not the latter, the possibility that worried him the most: the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder was not inadvertently stumbling upon this matter but was purposefully sent by other forces to disrupt his plans.
This would mean his schemes are no longer secret, having been discovered by a certain faction, and he would have to face not just the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder but also his backers.
In such a case, resolving the matter can't just focus on the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, as the other party's preemptive move would likely not be limited to the present means–perhaps even more contingencies awaited.
This would undoubtedly cause significant obstacles to his subsequent plans, and more importantly, there's the power lurking behind the scenes.
With the Jade Emperor's own strength, plus his subordinates, he has no worries in confronting an opponent like the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.
Even after the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder joined in the Divine Continent, with countless sect disciples over the years, several have ascended to True Immortals, alongside some Great Ancient Emperors as allies.
These individuals come from the same world, and upon entering the Divine Continent, naturally, they band together for warmth to ensure their interests.
Even after tens of thousands of years, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, as the leader of the alliance of many Great Ancient Emperors, still has many powerful alliances. He too is a major force in the Divine Continent, only slightly inferior due to the absence of a Taoist Monarch-level powerhouse.
Even with such opponents, they were nothing to the Jade Emperor, who could easily deal with them.
After all, powerful as they were, the Jade Emperor was more so. With the strength accumulated over ten thousand years, the foundation of the Jade Emperor's side was unimaginably strong–this was the confidence that allowed him to dare attempt to seize his own authority and compete with several Imperial Honors.
Indeed, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder was not to be feared, but one must learn to see through surface appearances and understand the situation behind them.
Whether in terms of strength or influence, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder stood at the upper echelons even among the myriad strong players who had merged into the Divine Land World.
If such a pinnacle strong figure was not acting by chance in the Myriad Laws Realm, but was instead propelled by another power, one could imagine how terrifying the power that directed him must be.
Throughout the Divine Land World, the number of forces genuinely qualified and confident enough to manipulate and drive a figure like the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder to be an expendable pawn were very few.
Moreover, considering which faction he had allied with after converging into the Divine Land World, and which top immortal sect provided him with protection, aside from the Shenxiao Sect, there was no other immortal sect.
For many years, the side of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder constantly gravitated towards the Shenxiao Lineage, and had been regarded by all as a vassal to the Shenxiao Lineage.
Under such circumstances, even other top immortal sects wouldn't use the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.
Thus, if this was not the true intention of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, then you could guess without seeing who had directed him to appear here today.
The subsequent words of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder undoubtedly confirmed the Jade Emperor's suspicion.
Standing with his hands behind his back, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder chuckled lightly, “Why must you deceive me, Imperial Honor? Even if I hand over this item, would you truly let me leave unharmed?”
A strong figure, after all, would have a certain credibility in their words, but that also depends on the circumstances.
Given the current situation, the value and importance of the Great Law Decree Technique were exceptional. If leaked, it could pose a great crisis to the Jade Emperor.
Therefore, if possible, the Jade Emperor certainly would not want a hint of this news to leak out. Even if he obtained the Great Law Decree Technique, he would inevitably resort to killing, which was indubitable.
Moreover, the other party was an emperor, a hero. Such a strong figure naturally reserved the option to silence others when necessary.
So let alone the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder being commissioned to come here by someone else, even if he had discovered this matter by chance and listened to the words of the Jade Emperor, he would never trust the promise.
Furthermore, he dared not compromise. The Jade Emperor was indeed powerful, but at least the Shenxiao Sect was more terrifying to him. Given the choice between the two, he would undoubtedly choose the Shenxiao Sect, as at least the integrity of the Longevity Taoist Monarch was beyond question.
“Besides, I appear here today for a reason–do you really not know, Jade Emperor? Why bother feigning ignorance!” The Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder looked at the Emperor, known as a puppet, with an amused expression on his face.
Having been in the Divine Land World for ten thousand years, aside from the initial dealings with the Jade Emperor, he had not had much contact with him over the years.
However, the lack of contact did not mean he knew little about the Jade Emperor. Regardless of how much the Jade Emperor knew about him, having come to the Divine Land World, he naturally would not give up paying attention to the strong figures of this world–the Jade Emperor being one of them.
The Puppet Emperor, a figurehead with an empty title, hollowed out by the other Imperial Honors, had risen to this position by clinging to the coattails of the Longevity Taoist Monarch.
